OK I have searched the forums here to no end, watched the videos about the procedures to do so, and the links to buy one, But I still don't see any indication that this mod is for a dual camera setup! Meaning I see in the vid's of people pulling out the old one [camera] and replacing it with the other one for FFC capabilities! Period!
So is there no way to acquire and install a dual camera setup on the T959 Galaxy Vibrant? Asking because the need to take pictures from the back is just as important as to snap photos from the Forward position, and to just have ONLY a FFC camera will seriously hamper the ability to snap pics when in say a crash or freight claim etc! The Nexus S phone has this setup, so can the dual hardware be installed on the Galaxy from that phone and then the proper driver/ROM to support it? Or are they two completely different hardware interfaces? [Connection wise I'm asking] Or should I just ask if I completely overlooked this scenario and the MOD, And it is for dual cameras?
The mod appears to me for just changing the position from back to front, period! NO DUAL capabilities! If I missed finding the thread for this question, many apologies to the forum!
You must be confused, the FFC mod definitely still retains the back camera. Only issue you get with the back camera is banding in low light situations.
You must be on drugs, blind, or 12. Either way if you watch the video the guy uses both cameras. Also if you look at the camera its both cameras in one piece.

The new FFC camera contains both cameras. One faces still out the back, and other out the front. The front one is very small compared to the rear.
It's an all in one unit. I have one that I still need to actually put into my phone. I can take pics and show you....
ALSO... geez guys, you can be so very hard on people. He was mistaken or just didn't really look or read. This flaming is one thing that makes it hard for people to get the guts to even post if they are new here. Take it easy on the guy. He's new....
Appreciate The 2 Worthy Replys
Reply and Quote from Subzerold: "You must be on drugs, blind, or 12."
You know I might be going blind as my eyesight after 57 years is getting kinda bad, However to say such an arrogant, rude ass remark, is just plain immature, and truly shows what a POS asshole you really are, and to think your in a grown body with the maturity of a 12 YO is pathetic on your part! And I suppose you gave 22 years of service to your country in Corp like I did? I seriously doubt it!
So look who's calling the kettle black here! Dickweed! Oh and BTW if you don't have anything positive or helpful to say, then why did you reply at all? MIHO!
Anyway many thanks to eminembdg and thegreatcity for their helpful insight to answering and clarifying my questions, I now have the data I need to proceed with this MOD and knowing I'm not assuming anything that would've led to failure and disappointment! Oh and BTW eminembdg is right, its people like I just pointed out, that makes us newbies afraid to ask a question especially after I did do my due diligence, and I never saw them mention once or saw where they had left the back camera in, and they didn't mention that it was a dual camera setup replacement, and if they did, then I simply made a mistake and didn't pick up on it! OMG what a sin on my part subzerold! U must be perfect at 12 yo and know everything! must be lonely being perfect!
Anyway Moderators please consider this thread resolved and closed as I got my info from the two contributors who have respect for us inexperienced modders who try hard to elevate their knowledge here from people who do know and are pleasant to deal with!
glad you got your answer, and that I could of been of assistance. You could press the thanks button on my post?
Good luck on your mod, I'll be doing mine probably on Tuesday when I'm off from work. Should turn out fine as it is a pretty easy mod as I've seen and read.
Hope this bad experiance with posting doesn't stop you from being part of the Android community.
Dude you need to calm down, even if you were my best friend i would call you those things if you told me you just watched a video and didn't see something. I wasn't being disrespectful and I answered your question. If i wanted to be an asshole i would have just called you a dumb ass for asking such a dumb ****ing question! Who in the world would replace their 8mp rear camera just to have a vga front facing camera? What kind of dumb ass can't read the forums and find out that the only issue with installing a ffc is the banding in the REAR CAMERA in low light situations. If I was an asshole like some of the people on these forums my comments would have been something similar to those. But i didn't i was just trying to be funny grumpy ass old man.
Subzerold, the thing is he's NOT your bestfriend, THAT'S why you can't call him those things. You're supposed to respect strangers. Seriously.

Looking at the picture at the link below. It seems the chrome ring around the cameras is flaking off. Has anyone else seen this in any other of the pictures?

It's a reflection. Don't you think "cheap build quality" would have been shouted from the roof tops by now? Honestly, with a picture that small, you can't judge anything but the shape of the phone. Email PPCGeeks to investigate the original photo about your concerns instead of complaining to us. When they post an article that a sharp eyed reader brought to their attention, tell us all about it.
Unbelievable.... Ask a simple question and get shouted down. I have been on this forum for years. Now EVERYTIME I post anything... I get responses like this.... Unbelievable. This is why I don't post much here.

Regardless whether or not the chrome is flaking off (which it does look like flaked off chrome). It has been said once from the sprint chick with the hands on video that they were recessing the cameras further into the phone so they don't get scratched up as much.
I hope this is true.

For having my mom die two days before that post, I thought I was rather calm and not snarky.
Wouldn't it be nice for people to just ask the source instead of rumor-monger though? Hence my suggestion to ask the person that took the picture instead of asking the site about a photo that is most likely 1/10 the original... Not to mention hold the phone in his hands.
I think what we are seeing in the picture is the protective plastic is still on the camera, I noticed it too when I saw the pic a while back. Early shots of the Evo Shift appeared to have a similar thing going on.
SO........why are people still commenting on this?
(Ignore the fact that I commented )

Because people would like a camera that isn't going to flake off because it's pushed out so much farther than the actual back of the phone.
Plastic adhesive on the camera is still in place and its been scuffed up.Thats what we're seeing.

I was asking this maybe a week ago and started the first thread that nguyendqh posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379081 and I feel it has quite a bit of objectivity and honesty. They did a good job of covering points in very few posts. I've been doing a fair amount of searching in these forums and I haven't read any feedback that makes me think it has any obvious issues.
One person in that thread(here is the post) said something about signal or sound quality issues, but a few replies after that made it sound like it could be a defect. Truly, this is one of the few negative comments I have found about the amaze at all.
Everything I have read makes me think that the sensation is a solid phone, and there seems to be quite a few people who upgraded to the Amaze, and I haven't seen any complaints besides there not being a ton of roms- but even that will change as the amaze is out for a while.
only problem i see so far iv had it for 2 days was the screen bleed due to the captive buttons..that and the battery suck just as much as the sensation...
I have had the phone since the week after release, and it's been a joy to use. Being a crack flasher, they guys over in the Dev section have kept me pretty busy, so I have no complaints there. I can only imagine how good it will get when we've got a faux kernel to OC the inevitable ICS builds. We've got some very good devs on this phone.
The phone is very solid, I haven't had any issues with reception or anything, and am very happy with performance. I haven't had much issues with the battery, it's about what I expected... not awesome, but not bad either.
Also, it's nice we've been able to completely circumvent the S-ON conundrum until we find the fix for that.
I don't know about the rest of you, but the battery life on my Amaze is actually quite decent. I have the Sensation getting ready to return to T-Mobile. The battery on that phone is horrific.
Still no S-OFF. It's an issue for me, anyways.
Capitan Totti said:
No, it was not a defect at all. Again you spreading your lies.
HTC phones have a bad rep about their sound quality, from way back in s620 times to now. Other review channels on YouTube say the same.
Again, I am gonna keep reporting your posts until you stop with your nonsense.
You are so wrong, that I ended up deciding to keep the phone and give it a second try.

He is just trying to help someone out that had a question. It doesn't seem like he is flaming you or attacking you personally.
Why are you so angry?
I just saw another post where you were looking for help about internet on the Amaze and keeping one SIM card.
You expect members on here to help you but then turn around and bash him for trying to help another member?
And are you seriously reporting his posts? For what reason?
Opinions are just that, aren't they?
This just doesn't make any sense to me and I'm trying to understand why you're so worked up.

This guy is following me around now I think, lol. I appreciate the fact someone else sees it like I do, I mean about a week ago I asked the same question as the OP, and I got some really great answers.. today I bought the phone and I'm now just waiting for it to come in the mail. I wasn't going to leave out the one main complaint I've seen, but I decided that other people's opinions about the phone's quality were enough to make me think that it is a non-issue.
To totti- I'm sure you're a sweet guy, but I just don't roll like that. Feel free to keep reporting my posts, I'm sure all you're doing is convincing some poor mod that has better things to do that you have a man-crush and maybe some stalker problems

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do agree... why is he so angry???? anyways you made a great choice. The amaze is a great phone. If you guys are having battery problems I would root your phone. Its a huge difference !!!!
lol alright guys, no more arguing lets not be like other forums. but seriously, I don't experience what totti said about the amaze's "speaker"... not the back speaker the ear speaker.
"The worst aspect is the earpiece. It is UTTER TRASH. It literally silences itself when you talk, and will "turn on" when the other party speaks, however, when that occurs, it will "eat" the first few milliseconds and you will get a broken up phrase (from the other party), 99.9% of the times. Seems to be an HTC issue btw."
I know what he meant by htc having sound problems, like the clarity gets distorted in other devices, but the amaze's speakers both front and back are really good imo.
anyways there's too many threads like this.
I listed this too many times
Problems:
1. battery life isn't the greatest (YET... come on new kernel!)
2. stupid softkey bleeds
3. lack of release of full sources!
4. battery gets warm when tethering, maybe other things too, but that's it for me
everything other aspects is either equal or better than other phones.
Just got WiFi calling which was my major gripe. Works well and other than s off which isn't a big deal to me it works great.

You guys are not audio people meaning folks who record music or listen to the audio track in videos, that the phone records itself.
The big problem is simply that the 'fidelity' (sound quality for recording operation) is terrible on this phone. On the GS2, it's mono, but the sound quality is very good.
If you're listening to some music or a video then it's fine. But if you want to use the Amaze4G or other HTC phones to record something, the sound will be very poor. So whether that matters depends on the user. On YouTube there is a video made by a new Galaxy Note, That has stereo (like the Amaze4G recordings) but sounds fine, and provides a stereo comparison.

Well, I would think that this is the sort of thing that the OP is looking for. Personally, I don't use the video function too much, but it is nice to have if something I really wanted to catch it is nice to have in my pocket. I can expect some good quality pictures from a phone these days, but I wouldn't expect the phone to be the way I made video blogs(if i did that sort of thing).
I am curious, do you have a few samples you could put side by side? A big factor would be that they were recorded in similar environments.. and I wonder if the phone could be set to record in mono audio, and if so if that would create a better quality?
I actually have a question. When recording video, the sound isn't super bad, but with so many mics for noise cancellation and all, the sound can be a bit off. You think that with ICS this can be adjusted or is it something htc has to fix?

OK guys listen well...
Remember this post?
Apparently not... as you all seem to keep acting like little kids.
I saw yet another locked thread when I logged on today.
As it stands I don't care who is or is not lying, who is or is not a troll, and or who is or is not right. I don't, I simply don't...
If you have issues with someone, just ignore them or stay away from their posts, twitter feeds or websites as the case may be. It would be so much better for us all that way.
Now I don't mind a bit of off topic discussion and threads, but all I am seeing lately is bashing, arguing and trolling.
Let me lay a little something on you... Nobody is owed anything. No Dev owes you ROMs, root, or anything else. Vice versa, no user owes a Dev anything for their work. (paid market apps excluded) The rooting community is a hobby based entity. We work on respect and a mutual love of the platform. Donations are voluntary but a good idea. (It makes Devs feel appreciated)
Another thing... Drama... It kills the community. It runs off users and Devs alike. It creates a hostile environment that no one wants to deal with. When a device looses Devs it can be a death nail to the further development for that device, and when we don't even have a perm root exploit, loosing top Devs is the worst scenario imaginable.
It is getting so bad that even I am getting aggravated, and I could stay calm even with someone punching me in the face...
It is so bad I am giving serious consideration to jumping ship to the Nexus... An (in my opinion) inferior device to the Rezound, just to get away from most of the drama.
Come on people, get your f***ing acts together, and your heads out of your a**es.
Sorry if I come off as a jerk, but something needs to be said/done about all this.

Sent from a Rezound, crappie camera included.
in last 2 years i owned bold 9700, HD2 and now sensation.
unfortunately while trying to clean dust out of the screen i damaged it it was already dropped and leaking on the corner and i separated it even more.
i havent been up to date on cell phones for last year or so
and asking your advice because i do not want to make same mistake like buying this stupid sensation phone with its issues
(camera red color and dust under screen etc)
can anyone that knows more than me about the following phones give me a quick list of major defects that i should look for ?
im planning to get the new phone this saturday and dont have any time to do research since im pretty busy at work..
here are the phones from tmobile that i was eyeballing today.
1 htc amaze how well is it built looked a bit heavy
2 tmo G2X
3 samsung exhibit 2
4 samsung galaxy s2 screen is big but resolution is not so big
can someone post pictures from following phones also? unless theres a thread with pictures i want to see quality the camera on those.
I experienced the "dust under the screen" issue with the MT4G, which I loved, but the dust made me exchange the phone 5 times
I can tell you Samsung phones don't have that problem because they fuse the screen so nothing can get it.. a HUGE plus to me
The T-Mobile Galaxy S2 had been the best phone I have ever owned by far.. and the screen outclasses anything on the market IMO.. I've held my phone next to the iPhone 4S, both playing Cut the Rope, and it almost made my friend throw his phone because he was sure the iPhone had the best screen.. it wasn't even close, the colors, the blacks, everything was so much cleaner on the S2
You will hear complaints about every phone out there, including the S2, but I promise you won't be disappointed, I wouldn't trade this phone for the new Nexus, iPhone, nada
Galaxy S2 all the way.
Have you considered the Samsung Galaxy Note? I just got it one month ago - and I just think its a unique device - works really well as a phone and a tablet, which many people doubted, s pen with s memo allows me to scribble when I am feeling creative/have ideas which are not meant just for typing etc. I do hope they bring ICS to it, which is optimized and not slowed down. You could consider this as well. I know people have S2 and are happy with it, but somehow I thought Note would make the owner feel extra special Hope this helps?
would be nice but its not available through T-mobile.
No offence m8 but you really need to go and put some effort into this one yourself. Its kind of silly to ask people who you don't know and who don't know you to decide which phone is right for you.
You need to go google this sh*t.
get a list of the phones spec.
find 2-3 review of each one and read it all.
then once you have an idea of the difference.
Cross ref what you've found out with whats
1:Essential
2:important
3:Favoured
4:a bonus feature
Than it will become very clear which one is best for you.
Asking on a forum is just plain lazy, and likely to leave you open to other peoples all too common 'mine rewls' mentality, you need to answer this one yourself m8.
no offence m8 but i didnt have time to do any of that, usually i do research but i found out about the sale a day before it so thanks for advice broski.
i listed the phones i was interested in and thats about how much time i had is to check the specs on the phones available through tmobile. other than that i didnt have time to go around forums and dig through 1000s of BS useless posts to try to locate the defects and shortcomings of every phone...
but unfortunately i ended up not upgrading anyting cuz its not worth it.
Whaaaa? Its always a good time to upgrade :]

the recent tmobile "promotion" was a big fail.
i went to the store and was told that there will be no change in my plan. and i get a the money back once i send the rebate.
to find out that i still have to pay full price for the phone over 20 month period...
that is not a damn promotion its a trick..
why the hell would anyone do that.
you get stuck with this company for 2 years AND you still have to pay full price on the phone.
i can walk in any day and buy that phone with my credit card instead and make payments on it and not have to be binded by 2 year contract...

lol .......... if you'd actually bothered to try it you'd have found everything in a couple of hours max!!!
Whats better spending some time solving your own procurement issues. After all you know what you need want and desire better than anyone else.
OR
Begging the opinions of other people who don't know you, and whos soundness of advice you have no idea about on a website.
Methinks your method indicates how committed to the venture you where, the outcome speaks volumes
cool thanks lol one person actually tried to help.
what did you not understand i didnt have time to do any research past what little searching i did...

ROFLOL ......... yeah but you had plenty of time to wait 5 days whilst you expected others to do your legwork for you
Don't wanna make this personal but your just not getting it
"One person helped"?? No m8 one person tossed you a bone ...... since you where begging, probably just bigging up whatever he owns. Everyone else's response (lack of, should tell you a lot about attitudes to posts like this. Where OP clearly states "I can't be arsed doing what i'd like you chumps to do for me".
Best advice you got was from me, your best at deciding what you need not someone else. Amazes me anyone is so lazy that they would rather take dubious advice from a forum than spend 2-3 hours educating themselves.
How old are you ......... seriously you a teen ???
Galaxy s 2 is good screen is great and lots of roms for it.
ROFLOL BRAH. because sale is over... dont need your help stop helping...
i was hoping that someone could throw some details about the phones i listed, you cant read good can you?.
your advice was not worth any more than a piece of doog poop on a sidewalk.
now that i had more time i did some more research and know more about the phones. but you obviously do not get it. and just have to have the last word even if its not relaed to the topic...
u know if soemone needs help quick i give them an answer and then we figure out if he was lazy or not...
i hope your car breaks down and you go and ask on some automotive forums for help and get same responce as you gave me "its your car you should know whats best for it BRAH!!!"
but maybe you still dont get it..
i found out about the sale a day before the sale. you follow?
i work all day.. still with me?
i was busy in teh evening and couldnt do much research. still there?
next day i was working as well and didnt have time to sit research on teh internets instead of working. after work i went to the tmobile store...
i asked if someone could give me a quick rundown of the common problems of the phones i listed... nothing more.
because i dont know how much clearer i can state my question.
"can anyone that knows more than me about the following phones give me a quick list of major defects "
anyway this thread can be deleted since it turned into useless thread.
Well thats what happens when you post a useless question.

cool another helper thanks for your help lol
My experiences with this phone are bitter sweet for the most part. Any bad taste Ive had with this device has without a doubt been brought on by myself or indirectly by a thread Ive read that developes, or should I say continues a "Will this", or "Can I" theme for the length of the thread. Not the devices fault or mine but it does bitter things for me
I must say that I have 2, this is the third posting, total in XDA for me, and I have flashed safe to say almost everything in the ATT LGOG portion of this portal. Nightlys, I will say every other release of Everyone that devs this device. Ive been inconvenienced a time or two by havin to reflash wipe flash install blah blah from bad file upload downloads. setups I can almost do with eyes closed, those get old. I have a point I wanna make and Ill get to it in a bit.Ive lgnpst this phone a hundred times and Ive even had the mispleasure once of having to send my phone to those wonderful bastards at mobile tech videos for a JTAG. Hells core kernel and a good buzz on made that necessary. If I woulda not been such a FLASH crackhead as I am with anything like this, and just read pages initialy, it probably wouldn't have helped anyways cuz Im like that
Heres how it goes; dev works tirelessly, life has its priority, but love for dev gets it done, DEV posts new thread introducing his offerings and any findings to further the DEV of his offering. questions questions KUDOs Kudos , u the man tytyty. thread starts to turn into something useful from postbacks on breaks and things that work and don't work, ETC.... Rom stabilizes further. How it LOOKS and appears; half of this community has entitlement issues and a problem with using GOOGLE SEARCH. U want something outta this then offer something other than 200 pages of questions about **** that OP has already posted and answered and fixed, for me to scroll through to find my solution. U DEVS (most) are overworked and get little return other than patts on the back and the semi-occasional paypal donations I guarantee arent the motivating factor for your part in this.
I have 3 posts people and 2 of them were questioning community and not DEV.
I promise I have had more downtime from this phone than 85 to 90 percent of you from overzealous under educated leap without looking actions on my part. I have a sickness and cant help myself. that said, that sickness motivates me to figure it out for myself and GOOGLE info that IS available. People that do google also end up havin to comb pages of peoples posts that could have searched for them selves but WONT. cuz its easier, lazy.
If you dont understand what Im saying then u didnt read and you are terminaly doomed to be that way. Which, in turn becomes my problem again eventually.
People who get it , GET IT! the reason I feel i have to rant is annoying to me, but thats my mood at the moment. annoyed and loosing faith in the common mans common sense. I have common sense, choose not too engage it at key moments, but I dont not use it at someone elses expense.
TY 4 letting me post my mumbleings, and enduring my incorrect sentence structures, punctuation, grammar, and most of all to the people that matter and contribute by not contributing garbage
Thank You! :good::highfive:
I'm sorry you just now are starting to lose faith in the common man's common sense. Human intelligence is on a bell curve with an iq of 100 being the median. 65 and below is retarded, 25 and below is a vegetable. That should let you know that half of folks are below average intelligence. Remember this when you see something retarded online or in your real life, and learn to gloss over the cornucopia of retardation that litters the Internet and the regular world.
