Hi Flix123, please camera.apk with 16:9 photos!!! Today is standard. Please. 4:3 picture format on 16:9 plasma TV or LCD PC is ugly. Please ..... ! Also 2 year old Nokia N8 have picture 16:9. I thing no problem in pixel. 6Mpixel is good for 16:9 mod.
Hi,
I would like to know whether it is better to record 720p at higher bitrates or 1080p at around the same 720p birates? For example, What benefit 720p@11mbps gives that 1080p@13mbps cannot provide?
Is it true that recording at higher resolution and/or bitrates translates into more battery drain?
Thanks.
Recording @ 720p @ 11 mbit is better than recording @1080 @ 14 mbit because off the bitrate needed at the 2 resolutions for best picture/video quality.
Thanks for the input!
Another question though...
What kind of video recording conditions do I need to use Normal or Fine or Super Fine settings?
Of course I would prefer lowest filesize output at the end of the day, but I also do not want to sacrifice too much quality, so knowing when to switch between quality settings for every specific recording will save me overall sdcard space (eg. recording a person sitting down giving a talk using 1080p@Superfine doesn't make sense right?
Thanks.

Is there a way to make the front camera picture quality abit better? The quality is not good enough for casual self portrait pictures.
This is my first camera mod and I want to share it with you.
First of all, big thanks to somemadcaaant who helped me very friendly!
The mod is based on V20q, very fast and stable! It works on V20q, maybe on V20l, too, you've to try.
I made following changes (in both mods):
- disable shutter sounds when recording a video
- increased sound quality to 96kB/s
- increased audio sampling rate to 44.1kHz
- .mp4 video recording instead of .3gp
Quality steps:
1080p:
Set FPS from 24 to 30
1080p Superfine from 9 to 17mbps
1080p Fine from 7 to 13mbps
1080p Normal from 5 to 8mbps
720p:
720p Superfine from 4 to 15mbps
720p Fine from 3 to 11mbps
720p Normal from 2 to 5mbps
The rest is stock V20q, so the camera is very fast and stable!
There's an additional "stock" Mod with these quality steps:
1080p:
Set FPS from 24 to 30
1080p Superfine: 9mbps
1080p Fine: 7mbps
1080p Normal: 5mbps
720p:
720p Superfine: 4mbps
720p Fine: 3mbps
720p Normal: 2mbps
ToDo:
- maybe heavy-tweaked version with upto 40mbps if the hardware allows this
- disabling camera not starting on low battery charge (can someone help me with that?)
