[GUIDE] Improve captured image & video quality

Search This thread
Hi,

Here is a guide on how to improve image & video quality that captured with your phone and tablet.

Notice:
- This guide will work with all Android devices and ROMs.

Steps:

1. Look for media_profiles.xml at /system/etc and open it.

2. Find this line (there will be two lines, one for camera & another for video):
Code:
<ImageEncoding quality="90"/>
<ImageEncoding quality="80"/>
<ImageEncoding quality="70"/>
<ImageDecoding memCap="1000000"/>

3. Change the ImageEncoding quality value to this:
Code:
<ImageEncoding quality="120"/>
<ImageEncoding quality="110"/>
<ImageEncoding quality="100"/>
<ImageDecoding memCap="1000000"/>

4. Save (make sure that permission is still rw-r--r--) and reboot.

5. Profit?

Hope this trick works for you.

    Um, How to check if it works? bigger picture size?
    The file size should be larger and the image is sharper.
