Edit kernels for stabilizing 720p recording. - HD2 Android NAND Development

As you all know 720P recording is now possible on the hd2 through windows phone 7. in order to get this feature on android builds updated drivers need to be included in android packages as well as a kernel that can support it. I am currently looking for help in updating drivers while i am working to stabilize some existing kernels. to any who can CONTRIBUTE please pm me and i will get back to you.

UP
Would be greatful as i'm sure hundreds of HD2 fans!

Bump
Why aren't more people bumping this thread?!
I would love to finally have the ability to record in 720p.

I really liked the 720p resolution on the WP7 rom. Cant wait to have it in android

That will be one of the greatest achievement for HD2.
Thank you for your dedication.

Yes! i hope it gets fixed!

HD2 does everything; note

This is more in response to the banner you have at the bottom of your post saying the HD2 can do everything "what's next..." and showing a playstation symbol.
Android has emulators galore! And PS1 games run very nice utilizing them. (You have GBA, Genesis, SNES, etc to choose from as well). Just note in case you didn't know.

yes.....i know it was simply a pun on the psx emulator -_-. Please keep this thread on topic.

am up for this!

Can't wait
Finally! Have been waiting for hd video recording to be enabled ever since i got this phone. Good to know we are close to getting it.

Bump!!! 720p video record... it would be amazing

woww.. i thought 720p cam impossible..but HD2 rulesss4ever!!!

When I tried the WP7 the quality was great but the focusing was aweful. It took quite a while to switch from close objects focus to further ones and the other way around too. I hope this can be improved too. I hope you find some help on your quest
PS. I hope you dont mind me using your signature picture as I quite like it and to be honest I wont give my HD2 for any other phone while I was thinking about selling it 4 months ago

While you're working on kernels, see if you can get Wifi Calling working using the wifi calling app from tmo USA.

ooh the excitement...
cant wait !

lol no problem bud! =) it is a great phone!
and as for an update for those following the thread, i am currently editing the cm kernel to try to make stable recording on MDJ ginger build.

If we get 720p recording to work...
There's nothing more to wish from our beloved device!
We can do everything and more!
If you compare the HD2 and the DHD today there's nothing that makes the DHD better.
On the contrary, it can more than any other phone outside there!

i will try as of now that takes the list behind 720p recording, mostly because there are work arounds for wifi calling via android ~android through tango, skype, ovoo, ect

How about starting a bounty for 720p recording as well?
I think it will motivate developers a little bit more.
And I know that it would be a success as well, remember how much money were gathered in a thread about a working camera in DHD builds a while ago?
This is the last border for android perfection in HD2, and we already know that it CAN be done in our hardware (WP7).

Hi All,
While i am really happy and i desperate to see 720p recording working on hd2.android, but personally 720p recording in windows 7 doesn't really look 720p, i feel the resolution is faaaaar less the the regular 800*400 recording..
which makes me believe if hd2 is actually meant to record 720P or is it just a bug in windows 7 that it says 720p when it actually doesn't!....

This should be in general, but look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684518
He's not 'managed to get it working' - it's HTC's FroYo ROM so it's official!
And yeah, read/search the other threads before posting
awesome news m8
but where the files are!
we need files ,not youtube
or thouse are aproaching news
Going by the fact that no one has this yet (really) if it was leaked it'd be easy for HTC to trace it and get the person with it in trouble...
yep ,normaly
nobady wont expose himself & be fire from work,
but question still stay ,
are this youtube picture :work or not
Wow... this really seems to be a leaked froyo with Sense NICE! Hope we see it for real here on xda soon...
EDIT:
I can remember the user that uploaded the video.. he cooked for HTC Diamond2 and always had the newest leaked roms... so this is no joke.
Thread moved to General.
Nice! Wireless Hotspot too.....
it look like 720p with 10-12 fps

Camera with 720P recording

Hi to All Devs/Everyone,
I found this camera app, this enable 720 recording but it is too laggy, may be you can help how to remove lag during recording. attach is the file. this is working with Android Gingerbread 2.3.4 but with lag. you may visit this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1094424 for more details.
Update: Install BitrateMod(720P only), this will enable 1080P video recording, but still laggy. 1fps only.
Well, definitely something i was looking for, but can you tell where you got this file and what are the minimum requirements (like android version etc). i cant push it to my phone right now as im making auto installer thing for toolkit and my phone doesnt have a rom on Good luck devs!
Who try, working or not?
I have one camera that was ported to desre and is reported there to be capable of 720p recording in 2.3.3 builds....will test if it wirks also on HD2 and release then...
Good news Daekin!
maybe if we use chainfire + the nvidia plugin would adjust this,because i saw that this camera file is for tegra...
i attached the plugin
I used chianfire3d plugin but still laggy.

On android because we already can use 720p on windows phone 7
Could the lag be related to the speed of your micro sd? . . . just a thought
The problem comes from the graphics drivers.

Alright.. it doesn't work with MIUI 1.6.3
People to make this working you need to develop kernel support. Things like this will never work 100%. And you wont be able to fix 720p by messing with some libs.

Well I agree unless the codes are properly included in kernel it won't be perfect..!!!
But this info is very useful, guess a step forward if chransingh can do somethin we'll have it workin pretty soon
Well even standard recording is terrible on CM7 based ROM with sound out of sync and camera not responding if you record two videos in a row.
Unfortunately, the disappearance of many devs and chefs and the less and less interesting roms (a lot of updates but no real fixes) lead me to think that development for the HD2 is dying...

What is the state of 720p?

ok so we have had the leaked "gingerbread" sense rom for the inc and well i have been waiting for 720p on a aosp rom be it cyan or omfgb. i hate to ask and get some....uh....rude remarks but.....what is the hold up?....please enlighten me.
I think the CM team is waiting for htc to officially release gingerbread for the inc for drivers and stuff (i think )
Kernel source needs to drop too I believe.

It works for N-1/Desire like 1st gen Snapdragon devices.

Going over those links you posted look like they are only for 720p playback, I think the op as well as a lot of other people, myself included; are looking for the ability to record video in 720p like in the stock Sense roms. And untill HTC drops the final gb release I don't see that happening anytime soon unless the CM devs can jerry-rig something together from the Evo release.
720p recording on this phone is, and always will be, utter crap. it skips, it stutters, it pixelates, and most importantly, the audio CONSTANTLY comes out of sync in every video. the video will get sped up and will end before the audio track ends. i think we just need to get a better phone to have TRUE 720p recording,.

Sadly I agree.
Now that HTC has released the GB kernel source for the Incredible, shouldn't we see 720p recording for AOSP ROMs soon? Is someone working on it?

Youtube fix is available at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25699244&postcount=139
Flash the above zip and then the youtube only fix or flash the all inclusive zip from the post.
After many weeks and long nights of reversing and staring at the proprietary QCom binaries, I have a breakthrough and got hardware video encoding to work. Here is a zip file which can be flashed on top of an ICS ROM.
http://www.mediafire.com/?t7iupkna19ka23l
The video is encoded fine, but may playback on the device choppy, which I guess is due to the decoder codec not working fine. If you play the recorded video on a computer, you should not see any choppiness.
Many thanks to dermann for sending me his device which helped me do this work.
Enjoy and thanks for your feedback. I will post source changes later.
Greatly appreciate all your generous donations, every bit of it. Thanks a lot.

You never give up do you. This has literally just been released, and your already badgering the dev for more. Every thread I visit I see you hassling devs for updates. If you need full functionality go back to a GB rom
@op: thanks so much for your commitment. quality seems improved but framerate is still poor. Is this due to kernel lacking full hwa?

-Video Recorded and Video playback was very lag. Sound is perfect while recording no lag at all.
-Effects (in Video Record settings) Force Close on every selection.
a little bit more fine tune will be perfect
I have installed the zip on ice cream toasti aokp but the recorded video is still choppy any steps i need to follow please advise

Seems like by using 3rd party video app will cure the lags. I'll give it a shot.

Poor choice of words is all i can say,
abusive post reported.
@op, how does this work since i don't think any of the hd2 kernels currently have opengl implemented in kgsl/adreno drivers unlike Evervolv for passion and bravo. I suppose it is for when opengl is implemented for hd2 or is openmax codecs not related to opengl in anyway ? (but then why'd they stopped working with ics ?)
@jwchips, relax and enjoy such posts.

video shoot comparison: CM rc3 vs StockRom

hi everyone
here's a post that I have been looking for but I've never found:
I'm on CM 7 which I love so much right now,
but I miss shooting nice videos like I used to do with the Stock rom
so here's a couple of video I found on my hard disk
(please forget about what I was filming (a drunk woman that weakes me up almost each day with her nice growls or spits))
this first one was shoot within cm 7
http://youtu.be/yISvYhldmxI
and you can hear that the audio quality is not really great picture is fine
also the format of the video is a little unsual, and I can't playback them on mac
this second one (same subject) was made on stock rom and you can really tell
how the audio quality is much better (the high end is much more precise)
http://youtu.be/dXUy3iYtmDg
so my question is..
did anyone else noticed this? and do you guys know of any app or fix or cm setting or whatever that might fix this?
Make the videos available for mobile please(youtube)
