poor quality image on google street view. why? - Touch CDMA Android Development

Hey folks. Just want to start by saying a big thnks to this forum; thanks to the instructions and files I found here, I was able to get the warmdonut android installed on my HTC Touch here on Bell.
But I am wondering why when I go to street view in the "Maps" program the view is mega blurry ir pixelly for some reason. Like way worse than it should be even for the Touch's low-ish resolution.
Can anyone tell me what the best way to solve this is? Do I need to download a special street view application or widget?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers!

Could you make a screenshoot?

I've noticed this too. And the other thing is that street view for me takes forever to load.

Gladly -- but I don't know how
Still haven't figured out a solution for this after spending a night with it, still blurry and almost illegible. Too pixellated or something -- I wish I knew why
cheers!

Can anyone else go to street view and see how it looks? Is it nice and clear or very pixellated?
thanks

Idk, I was personally never really impressed with street view in the first place, even on the PC

ah, thank you
that looks blurry, like mine. how did you take a screen shot? much easier to see how blurry it is when its in a city street
cheers

Movie Wedge Phone Stand

Just thought i that i should share this with everyone. Bought this item a month ago and it works very well with HD2. Here are some pictures of it and HD2 (and also PSP).
Cheers
Sorry about the picture quality. It was taken with a pathetic 1.3MP camera phone.

Awesome
That is a neat little stand. I'll have to check it out!
Very useful if you travel a lot. You can use it in flight, as well as use it as a camera stand on irregular surface.
I've bought it as a christmas present and is idd a nice gadget. Little pricy to send to Europe dough

video, unfortunately. I would love to have zelda on this beast
Thats excellent, thanks!
Another idea for those that also use the Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard - the little stand detaches from the keyboard and works great as a standalone stand for the HD2 as well!
Nice one Robert. I had completely forgotten about that!
Also, is it just me but I cannot see the link to the bean bag in original post?
edit:: Linky just in case: http://www.moviewedge.com/buynow.html
free stand
If you have a DV (digital Video) case or cover, open it up totally, place it on the table and voila you have a free stand for your phone.

Anyone brave enough?

So i have a Vibrant, i fount this thread, and was wondering if anyone was interested in trying this out on there captivate, obviously it requires a captivate and some balls, so whom ever has both see if its possible and give it a go.\
Edit: i belive this is the CAMERA replacement

as you can see, we don't really have the slot for the ffc to go into. Interesting idea though. Hope it works out on the vibrant

I honestly cant tell from the pictures, someone who has town down there phone or who is willing should confirm, i see an area on the phone with plastic next to the camera, what i cant tell is if it is possible to drill through that and not harm the phone, someone who has taken apart there phone check it out.
are you sure its not possible from this photo?

ya. if you look at the top of the casing, you can see it arc above the camera. There's not really any room for an addition camera and it definitely doesn't have a fully recessed area for it to sit in.
Well good news is an unlocked Vibrant will work on AT&T's 3G.

Anybody have this wallpaper?

I searched Google and everything. Can anybody please share the full-sized version of this wallpaper, or just SOMETHING that you have, that's bigger? I cropped this part out of somebody's home screen.
I don't remember which thread it was in, so I can't ask the user for it.

Looks like a black and grey version of the Rising Sun wallpapers. This is similar to it, but not the exact colors. I'm sure if you do some searching of "Black Rising Sun wallpaper" you'll find something. Or, if you have Photoshop, you can make it yourself. There is a set of rising sun brushes you can find, or I may be able to give you it, if I still have it. There are a few guides online that show you how to make it as well, without the brushes.

I know the actual wallpaper doesn't have that circle. I've seen the full wallpaper somewhere, I just can't remember where
This isn't exact, since I'm not the best at PS, but I thought it could hold you over until you find the original
EDIT: I made it 900 x 900, I can make it bigger if you want though..
EDIT2: Tried adding a little grain like the original, the second one has it.

[Q] Best shot feature

Anyone know how to use this feature? I'm looking in the gallery at some pictures I took with the phone, but I don't see an option. Is there something I need to turn on in the settings?
Also trying to use it, but it never suggests the "best shot"...
It happened once for me. It's more hit or miss I think. But what I think is best shot will occur mainly with a person. So if the person moves while you're taking a photo, it'll have another photo that may be better

I'm fairly certain it's only an active feature. When you go to take a picture, it actually takes multiple pictures and you can choose right then which is the best. I know the HTC One had something similar to this, and there's a video showing how theirs works, so I'm assuming it's the same on the X2.
I'm going with the guess that they haven't rolled out that feature to their camera or gallery app yet.

It is definitely on the phone, I've gotten it once. Their recommended picture had a slightly less blurry hand then on what I snapped
It didn't ask me after I took the photo but when I went to view the image?

Yea i think that is right

Notch line wallpaper

Let me explain, a few days ago i found these wallpapers on Zedge that looked interesting and wanted to put on one of them, but as i searched i found there were none for the pro as far as I can find. I liked it because it gives a little flair to the screen while making good use of the oled display.

If anyone has one that'll fit the notch and rounded edges of the p20pro please share.

I've tried this already and the notch part of it is wider than the p20 pro's notch, and the bottom corners are different.
If you are interested I created a similar wallpaper in video format, applicable with the VideoWall app on the play store!
This is the video-screenshot:
