Hey,
If you open up picture hub and zoom into a picture you'll see that after about 0,5 sec the pictures gets sharper.
Means MS uses a preview pic with less pixels and plus compression in the standard view to ensure a smooth run time. The main the problem is that the preview picture is such visible blury and compressed, it hurts my eyes everytime I launch picturehub. So I did some research and found some interesting registry entries.
10$ via paypal goes to the first one fixing it.
Regards.
I see what your saying but mine look just fine after zooming in about a second or less on my Focus. If yours is that bad where its hurting your eyes (I know its a figure of speech), I would think there is something wrong with your phone itself. Like I said, the pics on my phone look good even after zooming in.

I guess I didn't pronounced it correctly: If I zoom into pictures, they are fine and sharp. It's just that the fullscreen picture (without zoom) looks blurred. It's not that distracting (mostly you do not notice it) if you do not know the picture well, but due the fact that I am a Designer/Photographer the slight blur at my pictures at no zoom is parasitic.
You just have to prevent the phone from doing compressed cache images.
Regards.

mmhh, not really. I found some eventual responsible values, but I am not in the position to do further research. Just search for image or jpeg in a registry editor. There are too many keys to list them all.

Actually, all jpeg processing is done by native (arm) WP7 program called PhotoViewer. I don't think there is an option to change the jpeg loading mode. I'm afraid it's hardcoded in PhotoViewer.

This Qur'an Viewer was developed for my own use and will be invaluable to anyone who has memorised the Quran and wants to view two-pages at once so that it looks very similar to the mushaf.
Two types of Indo-Pak script are available, as well as two types of Uthmani script.
WVGA (800x480) resolution is an absolute necessity to run this application, any higher or lower resolution will probably not work properly and has not been tested.
You may find the size of the script is a little small, but as a Hafiz I find it invaluable as a quick reference when out and about.
You can click the page to move next/previous. You can also click the upper part of the page to go next/previous juz or surah.
You can choose from three bookmark positions, which will automatically remember your page position on each of the three virtual bookmarks.
Download it here. Unzip and see readme.txt for full installation instructions:
http://www.acclaimit.co.uk/downloads/HolyQuranWVGA_Release_20091001.zip
*** Please completely uninstall the previous Quran13Line application if you installed it before. This new application uses all new script images and a different folder structure. ***
Screenshots attached.
Jazzak Allah Khair
Could you please tell me which screen resolutions are compatible ?
qvga,vga,wqvga,wvga ???
Thank you
I'm sorry, WVGA (800x480) resolution is an absolute necessity to run this application, any higher or lower resolution will not work and has not been tested.
Thank you very much
DOWNLOADED AND INSTALLED
It is wonderful !
But could we get better Pictures ? with better script ?
Jazak-Allah, I'm glad it works. I tried my best to make the pictures look good using the 480 pixels page height so that we can fit two pages on-screen at a time. It's not going to be possible to make it any better unless we have more pixels to play with, or do you have any alternative ideas?
What do you mean by better script? Which part of the script are you having difficulty with exactly?
Thanx for your reply
I meant a different set of pictures, even the 15 line ones
attached are two samples (Zipped with WinZip)
and if you like, I can guide you to the link where you will be able to download the whole set of the first or the second sample.
Thanx again
I see. You forgot the attachments.
Please let me know the link to the whole sets of any other images you know of and I'll see what I can do... 15 or other lined ones, but I will have to rename the application too
I've resized the sample images to 480-pixel height. See attached.
I think the script on these images is much finer than the 13-line ones and is unreadable with two pages on-screen at a time. It would make more sense to show a full page at a time for the 15-line ones, which does not quite fit with the original design goal of this application.
I guess the answer would be to create a new application called "Quran15Line" showing one page at a time, but I am not sure how many people would be interested in this. Poll?
So? have you checked the samples ?
I guess the images without the frames can be visualised better especially when two of them are joined together on a horizontal WVGA screen, right ?
waiting for your reply
Well, as I have mentioned in my previous post, ( sorry just seen ur answer ), the ones without the frame are better.
Regarding your suggestion of the "Single Page", I don't think too many people will be interested in it since the images are originally taken from a software with a single page, full screen style.
These are the links to the 'non frame images' try them and give me your feedback ( Horizontal and Vertical )

http://www.4shared.com/file/97539687/b3476020/h_wvga.html
Thanx again
Ahh, about your attachment, in fact they both seem readable ! and do not forget that this software is intended for a 'two page style' which means that it is obviously with smaller pages.
I am so interested in the new images !
hope you can make them.
and regarding the software, you can change the options in the TOOLS key, to 13 lines ( your old images ) and 15 lines ( my suggested images ) !
What do you think ???
Jazakhallah Khair Brother Ashiq
Inshallah you will receive Sadqah Jariya every time i use it
this is what i have been looking for for ages
if you do update it can you consider a transalation in english which corresponds to same
13 line quran if possible,maybe i am asking too much
but thanks anyway
Salaams
I was already considering English translation which should correspond with the script. However, it will take a while to do this because there are so many English translations and because we have tell the application which aayaat are on each page so that they can be matched up to the translation. It may take a few weeks, but Insha-Allah I will work on it during any spare time I have.

This application is designed for WVGA to show two pages per screen, so unfortunately I cannot use the pdaquran images. I would urge you to contact pdaquran and ask them to provide you with a Windows Mobile application (they already provide an iPhone one). In any case, couldn't you just download the PDF and view it using Adobe Reader one page at a time?
Dear monzoyt and all - thank you for the various uthmani images you sent - I am currently preparing the Uthmani/Madinah images and will release a new application within a few days InshaAllah.
It takes a while because I have cropped the images to maintain high quality after resizing and need to also match up the bookmarks to the page numbers, and also need to render the page numbers in arabic on the page sides due to the fact that the images do not have enough space to render the page numbers at the top.

800x480 and 480x800, landscape and portrait screen mode!
As I take still pictures, if I save them into a message whether compressed or not they appear as a tetris game board. If I view them in the album, they appear as the picture was taken. I have reset all the defaults on the camera. The only difference is I am saving the pictures to a card, rather than the main memory. I have changed this setting to main memory, and the same occurs.
Any help or direction would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Welcome to forums
Lol!
I´m not laughing of your prob but of your tetris
Try doing a hard reset, instructions in the Wiki
And don´t forget to vote!
Possible to show us a screenshot of this "tetris" phenomenon? More curious than anything...
I think the real question here is how to get our pictures to always appear as tetris!
Here's a sample.
This was a picture of a knife block in the kitchen. I can view this picture as it is supposed to be seen in the album on the phone. However when inserted into a text or E-Mail (This one is from an E-Mail uncompressed) this is how the picture looks.
Thanks,

Are you on a stock ROM? or a cooked one?
Stock ROM.
The only mod has been to the registry regarding the tethering. The camera worked fine after that. Took video for the first time last week, and every since then, the camera has been acting like this for stills. Stock ROM on an AT&T Tilt 2 model.

I think the image/video is too big for the email/message, .. try taking a very small size picture and attach it and see what happens.
if same problem occur i would soft reset if were you, if it did not help, than hard-reset it is
Possible solution.
I had the same problem. I think it might have to do with having removed the delay in the Camera key captures. I had changed these settings in Advanced Config and my pictures started looking like yours.
I went back through Advanced Config and reset the delays to their defaults:
Capture Key Delay: Enabled (default)
Key Delay: Enabled (default)
Capture Key Delay Time: 1500
..and it seemed to fix the problem.
I hadn't changed anything else between the bad shots and the fixed shots, so it may be a solution.
Hope that helps.

The HTC Evo front-facing camera will not take an image in standard left-right format. I can see the argument for providing a mirror image to the display when setting up a picture (self-portraits), but the result (the actual picture) should not be mirrored.
If using Skype through Fring to video chat (which is really cool, BTW if just a little choppy) the video feed I'm providing to the other party is again mirrored.
It's clear there is a deliberate manipulation of the images going on here, but I can't make out why they would do that. Is there some fix, upgrade, or setting that will clear the problem?
I have not yet rooted my phone, and honestly I'm new to Android (much more familiar with security unlocking and re-flashing WinMo phones up to this point) so I might need the less-than-expert explanation if that's what's needed. ;-)
Thanks!

I remember a few people talking about this right after google i/o, I think they found a way to fix it, ill look around a bit to try to find the thread. It could be a setting in the camera settings also..
**
Looked around, but couldn't find a solution, but a few people think its a software issue, and has to do with qik and fring. Im not sure though.
nvm, i was wrong
I have an issue with photos taken in dark conditions, they are all messed up, or broken if you will, looking like corrupted JPG. In slightly better light conditions everything is fine. Reboot did not help. It happens now with default camera in sebaastian15's AIO 2.5 but I have also noticed it in AIO 2.2. Is there a way to upgrade/replace stock (sense 3.5) camera? Did anyone experienced such an issue?
I could insert image of screwed up photo but "noobs" like me have no access rights, so to look at it, make up and URL from this "img43.imageshack.us/img43/3977/imag0616d.jpg" or that one "img838.imageshack.us/img838/5885/imag0610g.jpg".
Also do not ask me to ask this question on the ROM thread... again, I am just a dumb "noob" so I cannot comment on super-duper-exclusive dev threads.

Unable to see these images.
same here
the same happened with me too
but on older versions of runnymede and runnymedemod007
mine even used to restart the whole phone
i suggest using market apps like camera 360 or others if you prefer
I was trying to avoid non-sense (hehe) cameras, but I will give it a try to be able to take night picture despite low quality... what I have noticed (but have to prove tonight) is that after I changed preferred ISO to 800 the picture taken is ok, and even when I set it back to "auto" - this sounds like ISO property is not really set and may mess up when pixel brightness computation in low light conditions (just a theorem).
ckpv5, I copied&pasted address to URL bar of web browser and it works for me, maybe you do not have access to imageshack server. When I reach "10 mails level" I will just embed it here.

Yeah.. I guess it is no access as this is what I got http://imageshack.us/img/blocked_login.jpg
Anyway... your workaround on the problem is good.
Night test done... default camera screws up pictures unless you manually set ISO. Re-checking "auto" does not help, but setting 400 or 800 helped me to make couple souvenir pictures.

As not a single person replied to this on OnePlus forums, I decided to post it here. Hoping to get some answers.
When a RAW image is captured with stock camera, the size is always constant, i.e. 31.07MB.
Recently, I discovered that someone has ported Google Camera to OP3/T and it also has an option to save RAW images when captured in HDR+.
The RAW files saved when captured with with Google Camera vary in size; up till now I've got variation from 11MB to18MB - depending on scene.
**[Both in auto mode and same focusing point and same resolution (16MP)]
When processing these two files, it seems I can pull out more highlight details and a slightly better shadow details from the RAW file from Google Camera compared to the stock camera.
.
.
.
.
Now, even my Nikon DSLR[(7200) 6000×4000]-14bit lossless compression makes 15-21MB *.NEF files -- which when converted to *.dng make 19-27MB files -- depending on scene. And they pull out A LOT of details from overblown highlights. A LOT.
So, the question:
>> About the highlights details; Why must this be happening because usually larger the *.dng file, more the detail, right? But so doesn't seem to be the case. What is the matter?
>> Can OnePlus make some changes to their compression algorithm?
>> Can it be helped? In any ways?
More detail? No. More information? Yes.
