Dazzozo 3,318 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 How do you check what sensor you have got? Build.prop or system folder? The app is irrelevant, it uses the JB one with obviously CM's changes (mostly internal). You can find your sensor with logcatting the camera app launching. I think there's two.

Davidoff59 243 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 Mack, use cat log and start the camera Some interesting news. The MT9P017 is a 5MP mobile image sensor providing high performance and sophisticated functionality. To meet the demands of the increasingly video-centric mobile imaging market, the MT9P017 is capable of capturing HD video at 1080p/30fps or 720p/30fps. Third generation Aptina A-Pix technology was integrated into the 1.4-micron pixel to enhance performance and industry-leading image quality. http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Third+Generation+Aptina%5BTM%5D+A-Pix%5BTM%5D+Technology+Enhances+Mobile...-a0226645398 http://adjechip.blogspot.com/2010/05/image-sensor-chip-aptina-pix-mt9t113.html?m=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dazzozo 3,318 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 It's not just the sensor you have to worry about regarding high end video - it's the CPU and DSP. Also: looking in to the Wi-Fi issue that plagues custom kernels. Very interesting... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dazzozo 3,318 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 No, I _thought_ it fixed it. It significantly reduced the chance of it happening but it's still there. Yes, this is a custom kernel. "Official kernel" in this sense is used to mean "built by Huawei". Everything that is compiled from source is custom. It's a problem in the dhd_dpc daemon, which ends up queuing up 100% of the CPU until the phone decides to call it quits and reboot. It can't be a problem in dhd_4330.ko, as Huawei use the exact same module. It's either a difference in cfg80211 or elsewhere in the kernel. I wouldn't be surprised, the entire mt9p camera driver was missing from the release. But yeah, whatever kernel you use, geno's or omegamoon's, you probably will encounter this issue on a stock ROM.

timfimjim 35 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 Hmm. I would be very interested to see how you get on with looking atthe kernel. Did we ever get to the bottom of how the kernel source itself has this issue? How come huaweis kernels, apparently built from the same source, don't have this issue yet any custom builds do??

Umrtvovacz 7 Report post Posted October 12, 2012 So I have s5k4e1 as I found in logcat. I guess we got the short end of the stick, eh? I would just like to get rid of that blur. Why can I see clearly and sharply but then photo itself is shizz? That's what I think is fault of the app. Obviously this is budget phone so I am okay with having bad camera, there is nothing even Daz can do when it comes to hardware. Thanks for help everyone.
