[Q] Chatting and taking pic at same time... - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway I can use my phone's camera at the same time while chatting on it?

If you mean talking then yeah put the call on speaker hit home and open the camera app..pretty sure that will work.

I've tried it already and it doesn't work. Could it be the rom I am currently running on that causes my phone to do this? My vibrant is currently running on Simply Honey 3.6 rom.

Ok so the update works, not perfect, but works well. It also works with tge hacked camera apk from sgstools. It has the option to use the power button for shutter. Install the hacked cam first, then update the firmware in the OP and reboot.

I can confirm this working on Lokiv1-3 w/ Dead horse test 35. Works pretty well in my quick test it just took a moment to kick in and then it worked great and I will upload a sample video.
All you do is download the .apk and install it
then look in your apps drawer for 'camera firmware' and click on it
let it run through it's process then reboot
after reboot enjoy your new cam
Here's the vid just watch it til near the end when it kicks in.

uh oh... installed the .apk. opened it. let it do it's thing. closed it. rebooted. opened the camera, switched to camcorder. now it's frozen. :/ bionix v-1.0
edit: nvm. i guess video recording just doesn't work in 176x144. strange.
edit: nvm again. it completely slowed my phone down for some reason. flashing bionix 1.2 to see if there's a difference now
Just tested on bionix 1.2 all resolutions, works. Good find

When I try to install it keeps saying I already have latest ??!?! Im running M Flagship V4
edit: I guess I really do have it already
What does it actually do, and is it possible to include it in a ROM without having to use the installer?
Does this affect video quality in any way? 720p still works and looks great?

Picture messages as short video clips?

Hi I was wondering if anyone knew why whenever I send people picture messages, they show up as a quick video clip (or might be a slide show) but it's all black until the very last second and disappears since the video ends, thanks!

what rom are you on? I had this on the latest TW I tried.... I flash so often I didnt think much of it, but yeah... pretty annoying.
I've only been running team whiskey roms, currently on their latest bionix
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Ive noticed this on axura 2.3.0.0, its annoying but i just ignore it as i don't receive mms very often. I have only noticed this ever since switching to the latest kb1 based roms.

[Q] Camera and Auto GPS on activation

Hi there let me first apologize for not fixing my Sig. I'm currently running Bionix 1.3.1 w/Overstock 1.3. I was wondering if anybody knew how to disable the GPS when you take pictures on the camera that comes with said rom? I'm not a big fan of geo tagging and would love to be able to not have to go into my settings and shut off my gps everytime I take a pic. Thanks in advance!
I think its the only way dude. Sucks!!

[Q] no sound on back speaker after email notifications

Hi, I'm having a very annoying issue with default email client in Froyo. Whenever I receive a notification from it -be it a sound or vibrate only- the first time it plays on back speaker but after that all sounds (music, videos or any notification) are redirected to internal speaker (the one used to listen when in calls) and back speaker remains in silence.
The only way to fix it I've found is to make a call. After that sounds are played correctly again until another email arrives.
Anyone knows a way to permanently fix this issue?? I couldn't find any reference to this by searching forum or google and I don't want to have to use another email client, I've tried Touchdown but it's painfully slow.
PS: right now I'm using CM6 TripN 1.5, but this was also happening with WB5.5. I haven't tried any other GB or Froyo ROM.
Thanks in advance.
Just curious, why are you using earlier versions of roms?
The newest versions won't do that

It's the latest CM6 Froyo from Trip and I find it more stable than WB one. Also hate all those MIUI Iphone clone roms, and most CM7 have some annoying bugs. I use camera a lot so I prefer a rom whre the camera's fully working.
All old versions do that?? Like it's Google fault?
hello? anyone??
are you using Soundhound or Shazam??? if you do, that's your problem, uninstall them and reboot, your problem will be gone...

[Q] slow camera

Hi, I've been using a number of ics roms since it was released and am currently on wanam v 12. I was wondering if anyone else has had a very slow response from the stock camera since moving to ics, never had any problems with gingerbread. The camera takes a picture normally but takes several seconds to finally respond and able to take another picture. Any advice?

Probably not the advice you're looking for, but try miui rom, specifically cmiui. The camera is really nippy on that one.
It may be a CM9 camera apk that's installed in cmiui. You could see if you could track down the apk on its own if you don't want to flash another rom.
And I know what you mean, every ics rom has given me bad lag with taking pics.

The GS2 doesn't have zero-shutter lag, but I am not experiencing a few seconds worth of lag as you are.
Try clearing data in App Info, which will hopefully fix your issue.
Try alternative cameras on the Play Store, namely Camera ICS.
Report back and tell me if that fixes anything.
Hey thanks for the advice! I cleared data on the app and is way faster now.
