Camera Confirmed to work on Topaz!

---

Hi All

Today I found a combination (which might have been out there for a while) how the Camera actually is working for Topaz Android

1. Download the FRX04 version
2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883966 check there for section "Topaz Users"
3. Don't forget the post "[23/01/2011] :" to dissable 2 rows in froyo.conf file

The Camera was able to startup and I took one Picture
The speed of the Cam.. well.. don't be to happy.. but it is working anyway

/olme

Yeah,works fine, but only 3 MP and without auto-focus,but it works more quick than im windows mobile.
Oh,but programm(name forgotten) in FRX04 for Rhodium(23.01.11) is more usable,you can make photo by pressing on volume keys

yes indeed WinMo is quicker.. but one step at the time This is the first time I ever on my Topaz and Android was able to even see that it was "connected" and that I could take a picture.
The next development will be that the rest of the goodies will appear such as speed and autofocus etc etc..

GOOD job Android Devs!
/olme

Please, keep in mind that it's in debug state, a branch of XDAndroid code made by viruscrazy.

If you want to help test it, follow the instructions in the first post and leave your logs there.

Thanks.

yes with provided topaz test kernel it's working till 3mp pictures
@5mp camera crashed... but this is allready known and developer asked for dmesg log files to finetune the driver...

-bl4ckb1rd

p.s. camera driver did not work with latest 01253 kernel

can any1 pls upload the conf file? because i couldn't find the 2 rows...... :P

[23/01/2011] :
Updated Lib_package to fix the froyo.user.conf file (thanks to arrrghhh again, you're the "conf file" specialist) and the Blackstone picture crash (I hope...). If you are using latest FRX04 build and rootfs, you may have to disable the two following lines (add a "#" at the begginnning of the line) :

Code:

mount --bind /sdcard/lib_camera/libGLES_qcom.so /system/lib/egl/libGLES_qcom.so
mount --bind /sdcard/lib_camera/gralloc.msm7k.so /system/lib/hw/gralloc.msm7k.so

Could DEVs add camera to Gingerbread?

There is a new fix for 5MP. It works. You need the Kernel from 28.01.11 and the new attached Haret Version. Do not use the attached kernels and don't forget to write the line:
set INITRD_OFFSET 0x608000

under "set initrd initrd.gz" (Startup.txt)
