I'm sorry,I attached all pics in main thread and on premium apk it says each can do 20 pics. It lied lol,sorry,hope you enjoy, all these pics. Were basic settings at 5mp,pic settings can be tweaked to make even better.

I thought the Max pixel resolution was determined from a hardware sensor fitted in the optical chain?

Wow overwhelming response on my gall lmao. OK I'm going to have to make a thread even a couple of them probably one in the main Android that session because so many devices can do this hack/tweak/OC. I need to make some threads and I obviously suck at it, I get it in XDA premium apk and no pics stuck. On browser now. is there anyone willing to help make me a killer thread with complete instructions pictures and everything we will do it together with both our names or even more people the more help the merrier. Thanx

Difference between the 2 is amazing! Remember camera setting were same,5mp and stock settings.

I see no difference whatsoever, except the different white balance. Well, in fact I like the original one better :D

Logically, as the sensor size is FIXED, as has already been said :good:

The XDA Premium only allows 1 attachment to upload. I've seen this myself.

Pics look good, especially on darker pictures. Although I'm not sure how true to life they are without being there, but seems there is more visual offerings with it lightened.

Does the camera still take "instant" photos with the higher settings?

My guess is its a change in compression of the jpeg file.

When the CCD gets lit up with raw data it then converts to jpeg with a specific compression ratio.

That compression ratio will always be a lower quality than the raw data... Because its compressed. Your not taking RAW pics your taking JPG pics (or tiff, or PNG, or whatever).

All of those formats are compressed and by changing the compression ratio you can dramatically change the way the pic looks. Also results in a larger size because the pic has been compressed less to allow for more detail.


Thats just my guess anyways...


I think the edits can be added to build prop but not sure how effective they are. I tried them on a few different ROMS and no one ever spoke to the good or bad of it. No one even noticed.


But if he is talking something different than I am humbled...

You talk too much about your mod but less sharing.. LOL. What's the use of this thread?
Such a nice comment, first its not a mod,its a hack and I said I will post directions soon.want to explain it so MEMBERS won't mess up. Didn't talk to much posted about it and results,its in 7+ ROMs and its helped many. Sorry you can't wait a little bit for directions,I even said if ya can't wait to gtalk me but you just had to almost troll. Come on,be nice. Directions soon. Getting help from pro's on proper way to explain it so cuz I care about people and only want to help.

Its actually in androids file to control the camera and more. Media profile.XML
Very simple,but confusing to some so getting a couple of pro's to help me write directions. Also to other comments....pics sent here are compressed so once hack is used and your pic size is 3+ megs instead of 2 you will enjoy.
