i tried to use the camera in my house but it turns out that the camera becomes blur..please dont say because of poor lighting...i'm sure thats not the problem..when i press the enter button to capture the image,the autofocus bracket comes out as usual but it doesnt turn green...instead,it displays a red x between the brackets...it seems like the autofucs is not working or something..
why is this?...when i turn my camera on and off a couple of times,THEN it becomes back normal...
is there any setting for this?
i've searched everywhere but i cant find any settings regarding this..

that version is still slow videorendering...
Thanks, it seemed to help out alot in brighter areas but the dark places are still slow... its no problem to me ill just use a dig camera if I need a dark pic... thank you =D
A trick I picked up here with the "new" driver was to turn the camera on. After it comes up, press the power button to put the phone in "sleep" mode. Hold your hand over the camera lens, wake up the phone with the power button, wait 5 seconds and see if the frame rate is a little faster. Goofy trick, but it seems to work.

i found this trick a long while ago. it does seem to work but i dont think it has anything to do with the htc-ca or omnia drivers so even if you dont have them installed, it will work.
I'm using the Laurentius26 V10 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416278 ) cooked ROM with the HTCA drivers ( see http://www.htcclassaction.org ) and the camera is performing extremely well. There is no evidence of any lag when there is sufficient light available, it seems to still take a performance hit when it has to compensate.

ps. that trick that p51d007 suggested is completely bizarre! Even the lag with close up or darkness goes away.
i am using the hyperdragon iiir lite rom with the (recomended) radio 1.65.24.36
and the omnia 3d driver installed in it
and video acceleration is perfect!!
a small improovement i have see also in camera
From my point of view... the camera gets SLOW whenever it has to increase exposure to compensate for the dark areas. The power button somehow fixes te exposure... or disables it.
Point is.. although being 3.0 MP...camera quality is nothing like a 3.0 real photographic camera. So... my question is...
Would picture quality get that worse... if the camera would always shoot with a fixed (lets say 1.0) exposure... and then increase the brightness of the picture via software ?
And to be REALLY bold... and please realize that i'm sugesting with virtually or really NO KNOWLEDGE ... 3D graphics can have its gamma controled... at least in a normal computer... how about showing the camera image on a D3D or OGLES texture... and increasing it "exposure" via gamma control ?
(Am i nuts?)
Yeah that trick works, but the picture is darker and a lot grainier. Also if you point the camera to a bright light source, it "resets" and then when you point at dark areas again, it lags. That trick seems to "initalize" the camera to a dark setting, for lack of a better phrase.

Damn, you're right, it resets when you point it at a bright source...I was all excited for a minute, too...
I wonder if there is a way to make the camera behave that way all the time? I snapped a picture with the trick active and it came out pretty good.
problem with autofocus...when i turn on the camera,the picture is blur.sometimes it takes a few seconds for the autofocus to really AUTOFOCUS.sometimes it doesnt do anything and picture stays blur..how do i fix this?
sometimes this problem occur but sometimes not..
it like depending on the mood of the autofocus..
one more thing can be detected is when you try to take a picture when its blur, instead of the bracket turning green, a red 'X' appear in the middle of the bracket indicating that the autofocus is not working..
please help me out here coz its a shame to have a camera not functioning properly eventhough u have a 3.2mp camera..
i hav the same problem in low light conditions
I just configured my camero in mode to fully press to take the pic, and i wait till the diamond just autofocus the picture
I just got the sprint version of the HTC DIAMOND Sunday, and this is my first WM device. Warranty is still good as well.
My problems:
1)
When trying to take photos or videos, the zoom constantly moves in and out regardless of me not pressing a thing (For example, when i open the camera, the zoom constantly moves from 1.0-2.0x all on its on). I don't know if it suppose to do this or not, but i don't think so. The same thing goes for viewing pics and Opera as well, it zooms back and forth without me touching a thing.
2)
Sometimes it seems as if the "end" button or buttons on the right of the center button,doesn't respond well. I try to hold it down to lock my phone, but it takes several tries in order to this. Maybe its just me
3)
Iv'e read that the center button susppose to act like a scrolling mechanism, but i dont think mine does. Has this feature been disabled or something?
Its a nice phone, but i think mine has a couple of bugs. The zoom problem really annoys me, because i cant take pictures with the camera zooming in and out constantly. Please help..
When using opera Or the camera rotate your finger around the center button(stay on the outside of where it raises)
With the end button try to press it on the far bottom right(as far from the center as possible.
I think the center as a scrolling thing has to be enabled

Make sure when you are in the album or camera, your palm isn't covering the scrolling "ring" around the centre button, as this could be causing the zooming problem. If all else fails, hard reset.
Also, for the buttons to the right, make sure you are almost at or close to the edge of the diamond. if you are close to the center button, it may be acting as a "right click" (as the area to the right of the center "scrolling ring" is a "right" button).

thanks for the info, but when i say it zooms without me touching it, i meant that literally. For example, right now im looking at a pic in my phone. The phone is literally just laying on its back while I'm typing this message. Its constantly zooming in and out of the pic in real rapid movements. Could it be the screen protector that came with the phone? (But then again, it only happens when I load the camera/camcorder,search the web, or view pics) I have it on, but i didn't think that would be the cause. Anyone else encounter this problem? Maybe I should just do a hard reset, or maybe return it. IDK
Sorry to hear...
I have the screen protector on that came with the device, and mine is working fine. Try a hard reset, let me know if it works

My missus was at work with the galaxy s in the standby mode,, she knows not how but she pressed something and it went into a "torch mode" with just a bright white light. Just pressed the home button to turn it off but has anyone heard of this and what do u press to get it there...
It was just an app she might have downloaded from market
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Nope 1st thing i checked and the fone was locked, as in standby mode with a password needed to unlock, theres nothing to do with a flashlight or anything on there... The only thing ive done to it is throw Darkys 9.3 on there, but she incists it when into like a bright white, ive tried to replicate it with no avail
The rom probably bugged out and the lock screen didn't load properly, or something like that.
There's no documented "torch mode" on the Galaxy S. With all the custom kernels and source floating about, someone would have found it by now.
my assumption was a glitch because i couldnt replicate it. Just wanted to see if someone else had seen it to trouble shoot, but no one has so glitch it is
Could be part of Darkys rom check the specs .
jje
Couldnt see anything and ive been on Darkys Roms forever, never happened to me, I suspect it just temp froze while opening or something
I have seen a torch mode in Power Control widget on my CM7. The icon looks like a flash light icon that you see on a camera. Clicking on the icon turns the whole screen to white light. Pressing the back button takes me back to the home screen.
Well there's the screen test mode, but it doesn't have white as a colour - only red, blue or green.
