Better Camera for the Titans... Camera_5_07_28987 Now in a Cab File
 
i seen a few people saying that the Camera_5_07_28987 (vouge) was better than the Camera_4_05_29446 (titan original). this version is included in dcd's kitchens, but was never made into a cab file.

One reason why it may never have been made into a cab file is because a cab file can not replace files in the rom. although there there still is a way to get it on to the device with out a kitchen.

here is what you need to do...

1. download and install the Camera_5_07_28987 cab file (link below).
2. download and install resco explorer or total commander as well (link below).
3. move the files from Program files/Camera_Temp to the Windows folder.
4. softreset.

the first thing you need to do is make sure either resco or totalcommander is set to show all files. normally these apps want to hide ROM files (dlls, ect).

i will give example using resco...

1. open resco explorer and go to Program Files/Camera_Temp
2. go to menu/file/options and tap the "browser" tab.
3. select "show all files"
4. hit done

now you should see all the files

5. hit Meun/edit/select all
6. using your stylus tap and hold in the center of the screen for a popup.
7. select "move to..."
8. select "Windows"
9. select "overwrite all".

now a warning message will popup a few hundred times asking you if you are sure you want to overwirte. just keep saying yes.

soft reset and your done.

Enjoy, cody

i included resco as well in case you dont have it. just a trial version, but still does the job.

links to cabs and original post is here. this is where the issues started

the reason i don't include this is because there is no flash, people tend to complain about it missing.

i got a pm from a guy asking if there was a camera hack for the titan that enabled a better camera quality. then i saw this thread.

i dont use the camera much i just like helping people. since i paid $80 for a cab program and know how to use it i figured i would cab it up for everyone.

yes the flash doesn't work on this version, but how well does the flash work in the first place. most of the pics that i take don't require a flash anyhow.

what i will do this weekend is take some pictures of the same things in the same lighting using both versions. i will post them up for people to see the difference.

untill then..... i tried.

The effort is certainly appreciated.

So far the pictures appear to be of better quality, although that may be the placebo effect. For the flash solution I just have the flashlight app bound to <hold button 5> - serves well as a light as well as a flash.

I am quite interested to see the comparison pictures from the 2 apps.

good point. how are we gonna take pics in the dark without the hi-beam? lol. but cody, i do give you an A for effort though. can't take anything away from you for trying, but if there's an update with flash for this file, that would also be a great idea.

pictures removed....

i realized last night that i never did the softreset after moving the files over. this softreset would be needed because there were ove 360 regedits in the cab as well as the files. a softreset is needed to have them set.

i will be replacing my pictures tonight when i get to my pc.
