[Q] How do you port the x10 2.1 camera to work with the free x10 beta 4? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys if anyone knows how to get the original sony camera onto x10 beta 4 2.2.1 I'd really appreciate the help.
Also Is there anyway to get timescape back? I kinda miss it.

Sorry dude, no offence to you, but these camera threads really are getting out of control.
So, im gonna tell you exactly what I told someone else in another thread last night about a camera.
The camera on FreeX10 actually gives a better quality picture than the stock 2.1 camera from SE. I have been doing a million tests lately with different camera apps, and FreeX10 actually does better than alot! Maybe all the fancy settings arent there, but quality wise...its top notch.
If you wanna run 2.2, and dont like the the camera on it....go buy vignette from the market, its your next best option.
As far as timescape goes....you will NOT see that on FreeX10...the whole purpose of FreeX10 is to get away from SE crap and well be.....FREE!
If you want timescape, and the stock 2.1 camera...then here is my absolute best advice....install a high performance stock 2.1 rom.

i understand. I still love froyo on the x10 but is there anyway to port timescape onto 2.2 manually or something like it. Sony's interface is beautiful. That's the only thing I miss about 2.1

SE's UI is nice to look at....i agree....if you wanna try to put timescape on beta4 yourself....grab the files in root explorer, and try to install them on beta4....i can almost guarentee it wont work lol.
About making it work....i dunno, im sure a dev somewhere could do it....but probably wont lol.

Lol. Well thanks anyways. Btw I do see the improvement in quality in this camera on 2.2. But how do you get the video camera to work. I tried illusion but it made the video cartoonish
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Yeah, as of right now videocam illusion is your only choice. Set it at its lowest setting and it should work ok. The quality and framerate are absolutely terrible tho, so basically if you wanna use 2.2 then you gotta give up video recording for a bit lol. Its a trade off haha
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

since z' is still bz... till then wait n see... it seems there is 2.3 is coming around the corner..... mybe a new solution..

Lol. I figured I had to give up HD for 2.2 after illussion didn't work lol. And hopefully Z will release the final and most stable rom soon

Any good camera apps for xperia x10

Am looking for a good camera app for xperia x10 any ideas
you didn't look very far..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=51041912
anyone tried fast camera and whats it like
camera 360 is a good one. same as FXcamera and Retrocam
my w995 takes better pics than my x10 ?
I swear by vignette great pictures and also enables auto flash for the phone.
Vignette, for my purposes absolutely the best

Anyone else has a problem with camera 360 where it says your phone has no zoom function?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yes, I do.
Also have this with Vignette (I downloaded the demo to try).
They both seem to be superior to the stock app, however without zooming functionality, they don't make full use of their potential.
Vignette is the always best
Best Camera Option
Hy,im a newb on the site.
I have my Xperia X10i for about a year now,and i have almost everything done on it,started from 1.6,now here with all sorts of roms
i have from root to BL unlocked using latest kernels n basebands.
Personally,in my opinion,keeping stock froyo(2.1) is the best camera rom,because of the optimization...and then,best camera app i think is vignete....so far didnt find anything better.
Now im using M&Ms miui FXP kernel and i have to admit stock camera app is out of focus,hence,vignette is out of focus too..wether i use macro or any other mod...its so bad i need a revolver...and yesterday i rolled back to 2.1 froyo and the difference in macro is HUGE.now im trying to find some compromise.
1.Does any1 know if GB(2.3.3) has the same camera precision as older 2.1 froyo? i heard complaints with 720p recordings....
2.Can you use a mutual baseband between the 2?.Im pretty shure you can use 2.3.3 with .71 baseband,exactly the one that fxp kernel uses so you can "dual boot" via cwm the CAMERA ROM( some stock rom...) and your CUSTOM ROM(for normal use)
3.Can you mod 2.1 to work with .71 baseband???
Thanks to all dev`s who are working on these older phones even when theyre so outdated!!!<3
I am using HDR camera. It's worth of trying .

I think .71 would work only on 2.3.3 and not 2.1
I dont find my camera so out of focus. I am using cm7zmod and its working fine. I just compared pic between my X10 running cm7zmod and my dad's x10 running 1.6(donut lol).
The problem is you are using rom based on cm7 by fxp which has some problem with camera with focus I guess. You should use stock based roms which have original camera app/libs which is the best
btw 2.1 is eclairs not froyo

HDR Camera is awesome, I just wish my hands here more steady. I always get very slight smudges in the composite image due to jitters.
That said, I usually use Vignette with the 'image stabilisation' turned on. It doesn't do anything fancy other than use the motion sensor to wait until the phone's being held still enough to take the shot.
Vignette
It's the best for me.

[Q] best camera with zoom on a 2.2 rom

What'st the best camera on a 2.2 rom? The reason I am not trying out all the roms which I wish I could is cuz I am a college student currently needing a stable rom all the time and trying out them all the time will slow me down. 2.2 freeX10 is awesome but the camera on it has no zoom. which 2.2 rom has a zoom for the camera? If any of the roms don't, which rom will get it first. Unless thats a stupid question?
Same here (sorry, I don't have a 'subscribe' button...)

Get vignette from the market....zoom works on it, and its probably the best app for pictures and quality hands down. Im using the paid version right now on freex10....works awesome

Which ROM you recommend!

Hi guy/girls,
ive looked through as many threads as i could and downloaded a few roms and im rather stuck which to go for and hoping you peeps could help me decide?
basically what i want is:
Adobe flash support
camera + video cam
make phone calls and 3g networking
not to bothered about mediascape
So far i have downloaded MIUI_xperia_TripNRaVeR-CFMod.v7 and [rendeiro2005]Cyanogen6.1.3_v01.
the [rendeiro2005]Cyanogen6.1.3_v01 seems to be my fave im just not a great fan of the theme but i could always install one i like i asume? im a relative noob but still know my way around xrec and rooting. if im missing a rom that fits my needs does any one have any further recommendations?
Many thanks people
I would go with which ever cynogen mod with the highest benchmark score. I needs it

Im using CM 6.1.3 V4.1,I really like it.I was using Free X10,but this one seems a little bit smoother. I also switch back to SE 2.1 to use the video cam in HD. Video illusion+Vingette works just fine as alternatives. Theres probably atleast 1,000posts about those apps on here.

this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913610 is the rom if you want something fast, and has the camera, and so forth.
I just downloaded the blue sparks rom im going to give this a try now, it seems promising and i quite like the look of it theme wise, thanks for the replies guy
The best rom so far is EW JET

I will give you my personal testimonial.
I am using this rom h t t p:/ / forum .xda-developers. com / showthread.php?t=941745 for last 10 days.. and I can asure you that so far it's the best 2.1 rom that I had tried till now. It's completely functional and too smooth.. beyond the amazing theme and still there is two flavors available Gingerbread Theme and Gingerbread plus Arc Theme Personally I prefer the second one. By the way I tried almost all roms available in this forum and for sure the best one is EW JET by erickwill.
i've just installed rendeiro's cyanogen+fx10b4 and while i'm loving the ROM, i'm also going to tweak the theme to my liking.
I'm also searching for that perfect one.. now using TripNArc, but it's not done yet
Gonna look at dev section now.
Well im using the blue sparks Rom with arc home screen and enjoying it just wondering if there is a 2.2 froyo Rom around that sd card actually mounts I am unable to find one as of yet

BEST ROMS FOR EVERYDAY USE.. 2.2 and 2.3 FOR X10

Guyz... V hav got many roms... But lets just keep it simple and sort out the best everyday used roms...
I still am on 2.1 and want to move on furthur...but i just cant decide..every rome has drawbacks... So in the quest for the best...or near to one...suggest:d
either freex10 beta 4, or wolfbreak's cm mod.....
both fantastic roms!
Cld u tell me the drawback in both... So that i can decide??? Coz i dont want basic functions like camera,wifi,bt missin...den ders no point...
The ONLY drawback to either is that you need a 3rd party app (videocam illusion) to use the camcorder...
Otherwise they are 100% stable and perfect.
And the battery life ??? Is it same with these roms???
I find them both pretty equal. MY suggestion is flash bandwidth .55, seems to be better than .54...
I get a day no problem, and I use my phone pretty heavily. Two days with light to moderate usage.
Wolfbreaks CM V4.3 is the best IMO.
I friggen love it
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
If you like to use a 2.3 ROM use the TMRgingerARCmOd
ROM from rdannar. Its pretty stable for a gingerbread ROM and I think, don't quote me on this, but I think it has more stuff working than the other 2.3 gingerbread ROMS. Try it. But no camera at all works on the ROM. Who needs a camera though? You got the most updated software at least working for the x10.

There's alternative camera Apps that work. I love to how the transitions are seamless scrolling between screens and Apps. Using the latest flash Player is also a huge advantage to. My wifi auto connects with now problem and the bluetooth works fine.
2.1 is old and outdated and slow. I'm currently using Cm 6.1. 3 and it's exceptional. I was using free x10, which was great but I still prefer wolfs rom.
Time for you to get with the times, so you can get a real phone.
Besides you can always flash between roms, it only takes 5mins.

guyz,,,thnx for the advices... n yest nite i shifted 2 beta 4 free x10 rom..
everything is fine.... i installed video illusion..but i seem 2 hav lost the sensitivity... i mean i have 2 slide my finger 2 or 3 times...to get the scrolling... and some times the icons dont get selected...is it becoz of the "illusion.."???
and 1 more thing.. when i use illusion... n record the video.. my voice is played like a chipmunks...what the hell is that??
i had the same problem too with the screen. so i switched roms but the video illusion is like that. i personally think its hilarious. lol but its how its processed through the phone i think for that app or the rom.

Its a matter of taste but depends on if you like cm or miui, I havent tried trip cm7 to compare but yes the z one is blazing fast. Hard to say what the best is but theres some great stuff popping up for x10 lately.

Just wish the android camera could be skinned to look more appealing. I feel like im taking pictures for a funeral lol
