Root cm6 and camera

[jgalan14]

does the front facing camera work for qik? and what about the pic quaality does it go all the way to 8mp, i take a lot of pics so is really important tome, any other feature that doesn't work that you guys think is important(4g, radio and hdmi), i would like to used 4g but don't mind too much and i'm running fresh 3.2.0.0 just looking for something fast and new to play, i have launcher pro+ so not problems with widgets, the only thing i might miss will be the dialer because stock android is just ugly and not functionality as HTC(and the keyboard too)

Yes I never had a problem with Cm6 and the camera.

Quoted from Baked 1.6 Change log:
"-much improved framerate in video recording (camera clock speed increased)"

Then update to Baked 1.7:
"-more improvements to video recording (now there isnt need for a fix)"

Seems like it might be of interest to you if video recording is your thing.

No kidding but since this is an open forum and the poster showed interest in video recording, I figured I would offer another suggetion.

Keep your composure guys, be nice.

I actually have a question regarding the CM6 and camera so I'll ask it in here, what exactly are the settings for taking photo and video?

Hey, you took out my best line! lol

For people who like to use the camera on there phone, did you try Vignette? It is my staple camera app on my EVO no matter which ROM I am using.

Much better then stock and does not compress the picture like stock either proven by the much larger file size.

Just doing my job

Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out. Seems like the paid one deals with what I want lol. What's the set amount for megapixels and video resolution on stock CM6 because I can't find it for the life of me

yes getting an answer on the camera issue seems to be a problem... this is the first i heard about this Vignette though...

so any rom and any kernel, vignette will still give me the 8MP?

Most chefs are using the current 2.2 kernel which does not effect MP settings. So as long as you download the current ones from baked, netarchy, king, then there's no problem with vignette.

The CM6 camera seems to be recording fine. Seems it shrinks down the recording angle though. I haven't used it too much so I havent seen the issue everyone mentioned but will keep an eye out on it.
