[Q] [ARC S] CM9 Camera issues - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, i`ve installed the CM 9 last week and this is working fine, but wen i take a picture my camera doeseng get automatically focus, i have to touch the screen on the place i wat to focus before taking pictures....is there any configuration where i can put my automatic focus back?
This is important to me because i use my camere alot, and touching the screen is a little annoying.
Other problem is the panoramic camera that doesen`t work, i have the image on my screen, but when i start taking the picture it says I`m very fast, and then whe i get slow my picture is very, very short.
I would be very thankfull about some help.

Add camera ics from the play store. It might solve your problem.

Magnifying Glass app?

Does anyone know of an app that will Use the HD2 camera, and possibly the led flash, to display a live magnified image on screen? Essentially turning the HD2 into a magnifying glass (possibly with light)?
Ive got a friend who is partially sighted and often uses a magnifying glass with a built in 'torch' light, to read print/text while out and about.... having an app that would do the same thing could prove very handy at times.
Anyone know of such a thing? Everytime I try searching I just get apps that magnify whatever is on the screen and cant magnify a live image from the camera.
Thanks in advance.
iam sorry for asking, but could using the zoom feature of camera with flash on...doesnot serve the purpose ?
Thanks for the suggestion... However I had already thought of this... The main problem being that my flash will not light until I take a picture.
Previously my flash would stay lit during preview if the flash ON option was selected.... but this is no longer the case (possibly since flashing to EnergyRom).
Plus having a dedicated app would be more convenient.
Cheers for the suggestion though :thumbup:

Put it in video mode and you can force the flash on or use torch button and leave it running when you start the camera up.
yes, you can use the torch application and keep it on while you use your camera
The LED turns off if the Torch app (Flashlight) is not the active application.
You can do what optiknervz suggested which is use the Video mode and then turn on the flash, unless of course you want a still photograph of whatever it is that you are trying to zoom into.

yea cos flashlight is no match for torch button.
yes ..use the torch button, not the flashlight app..........i can use my torch even by clicking my quicklink and it stays on even while i use any other app and only gets switched off once i disable it by pressing the quicklink again.

fast capture bug

Anyone else find that quite often when going to take a quick 'blind' shot from standby the phone wakes up but doesn't go into camera mode instead shows the lock screen. Wouldn't mind if this was a rare occurance but it happens far too often that I think one of these times I will miss a quick shot because it doesn't work (defeating the whole idea around fast capture)
Another after the camera has successfully taken a photo from fast capture mode and you select the normal camera mode (instead of scene recognition) it can also jump back to the lock screen.
Anyone else have this problem? It's really bugging me!
I didn't use the fast mode very often but never had a problem.
I set it to only open the Camera without taking a photo, but it worked before.
Tried it couple of times but never had this problem.. Which version do you use?
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
I have this problem too. It only works once. If I want to use it the second time I'd have to open Advanced Task Killer and Kill the Camera tasks. Only then will it work.
I'm using .73 Singaporean. I guess something messed up during flashing, not sure =/
I have found another issue with FastCapture. When I click with fast capture its like a blind shot. No flash , no adjustment - image with fast capture often looks bad compared to image taken in same condition using Auto mode.

[Q] Issues with xperia sola

hello to everyone,
i recently bought an xperia sola and i am very happy with that. After some days usage i discover some issues with my phone and i believe you can help me.
First of all the camera doesn't work with the camera button and to be more specific when i push the camera button does nothing and if i get into the camera app and push the button again i cant get any picture. So i changed the settings of the camera app and now i can take pictures by touching the screen.
whats wrong with the button? Is that a hardware problem or is software?
Also when i make some phone calls the picture of my friends those i choosed to appear when they call me some times are full screen but the most of the time are too small. The pics i choosed are taken from my phone camera.
Do you know anything about this?
Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english

i dunno abt the pic problem
for the hard camera button, u have to dig it in reeeeal deep for it to take a pic
(which by the way causes ur hand to shake so unclear pic--better continue to use onscreen button
It took me over a week to realise that the camera button has two positions (like the shutter button on most digital cameras). I first thought the camera was very buggy or that I had set it to some mode where it wouldn't take a picture unless focus was good or something like that.
So, just make sure you press it all the way down.
As for the pictures I have no idea, I never make calls (I'm deaf).
thank you guys for the answers

He means install the Camera ICS application.
cheers guys that app works awesomely but i have another problem now, the front facing camera is really really dark
thanks
Ah well, i noticed that problem while using skype. But, so far as i know, no solution. I have to sit infront of a very bright light, like a high power table lamp for it to work.
