Camera crahses by going into powersave... - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Does anyone have an idea how to fix the problem, that if you are in the camera, while the phone goes on powersave, then the camera is inaccesible until the phone has been soft-reset?

problem with camera?

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.

ProxImity sensor problem

Hey guys so I'm having the following problem, during a call when I put the phone near my ear and the screen turns off, sometimes the phone stucks, what I mean is the after I remove the phone from my ear the screen remains turned Off and the buttons do not respond.. But the call is still working.. I had gueste rom then I changed to cyanogen but the problem is still there...
Unresponsive phone perhaps, because as far as I know, nothing of the sort happened to me ever.
Also, does the screen light up when you end the call...let's say by using power button?
Not likely, but I'll mention anyway, check if anything is blocking the proximity censor - holding habit, cellphone case etc.
Similar issue,any way to disable the proximity senzor?

I have pretty much the same problem,the screen remain turned off after i remove the phone from my ear and i can't activate the screen or press any buttons until the other person terminates the call.
I run a proximity test from the Hidden Menu and the sensor detects as NEAR all the time even though nothing is in front of it.
I reinstalled several roms and i still encounter the same issue therefore it must be a hardware problem.
I would like to specify that i don't use a screen protector therefore the senor is not blocked in any way.
Is there any way to disable the proximity sensor completely?is there a application or a setting for that?

I have had the same problem, with many roms. I think if you are on some of the ICS roms, you will have to expect some bugs, like this. I am now on Temaseks build 135.1 with his kernel and I dont have any of these bugs. It seems ICS for our P990 is to be expected soon, so try a ROM as close to stock as possible and wait for our ingenious developers to get the last drivers working and you will see a lot of bugs disappearing. I would not recommend you to disable additional hard/software.
One app that has helped me though, with some of the ICS issues, is AnTuTu CPUMaster. A free app in Play and it allows you to set your minimum clockspeed a little higher than standard, I set mine around 400Mhz and it took care of many of the little bugs related to phone not reacting according to expectations.
Good Luck
Have the same problem and man... its a huge pain...
I am on the official CM7 latest release. I used to be on temasek's one and did not encounter the problem. As I can;t change ROMs these days, any quick fix, calibration app that would do the trick? Thanks!

[Q] Camera Quick Capture From Lockscreen

I have 2 potentially related questions about launching the Moto Camera app. After the Lollipop update, I haven't been able to use the twist/shake motion to launch the camera unless the phone is unlocked, and the screen is on. So if my screen is dark, or sitting on the lock screen, twisting my phone does nothing, except make me look stupid. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there any way to get this feature back?
Potentially related, the little camera icon in the bottom right of the lock screen has also disappeared. Other posts about other phones say this is related to the quick start settings in the camera app. In the Moto Camera app, the only option is the twist quick start on/off setting, nothing about the lock screen. Does anyone have any suggestions about this?
I'm having several other Lollipop related issues, so I may just reset my phone, and hope it fixes it... :fingers-crossed:
Replying to my own thread, in case anyone else has the problem. I wound up doing the reset, and it fixed both issues. Nothing else I tried worked.

screen brightness problem

Hi all, my p30 pro, when the screen is woken up in the bright sun, it goes to max brightness. However after about 30 seconds the screen dials back the brightness to about 75%, and even if it manually move it back to 100%, the screen doesn't get any brighter. I have tried all the setting regarding the display, manual, auto, vivid etc. I have factory reset the phone as well. Any thoughts or ideas please?

Unfortunately no, I am still using it. But it is almost unusable under sunlight. Was hoping a software update fixed it, but no luck.
I forgot to ask what software version are you on and when the problems started.I have a mic problem too and I already changed the mic but although it's a bit better it's still not usable as before.
I am on emui 12. Can't remember when it started.
any solutions? on the newest version of the software my display doen not adjust automatically to the light outside. I do not even have this option. When I try to restore to the previous version by the hi suite I get a message that I have a problem with my Internet. I dont know if it worked on the previous one . I got it and installed the newest version. Any ideas?
