Now, the live view is blurry and slow (as if the frame rate has been reduced) and when I do take a picture, it again focuses up and down for a while before taking a picture. All in all, worse! What am I missing??

Not sure to be honest, but mine is very snappy and smooth moving the viewfinder around. I did just hard reset and reload stuff a couple days ago however as my phone was getting sluggish due to a lot of trial and error and such. Now that I've reloaded only the things I wanted it is running great.

No it will only work with the same hardware camera as the HD2 which is identical to the camera in the hero, eris, and imagio. Though it won't work on android devices till the passion/dragon comes out, I'm sure it will have the fix. After the fix you can just hear it now when the autofocus starts working, it is just much quicker, and louder for some reason, hey if it wears it out I'll pay a hundred and get a new one. But it is a real release from htc so it shouldn't affect the hardware.

I. Love. This. Cab! Focus time is ridiculously faster.

Please help - why won't this work for me? The original camera (with extra modes unlocked) takes a ridiculous time to focus and shoot - all the photos of my kid are blurry... I tried the CAB in this thread and it didn't help (in fact, made the framerate very low before I shoot so that the images I see as I move the camera around jump discretely instead of smoothly). Why wouldn't it work for me? Any 3rd-party apps out there to work the camera?

The fix will not work with the extra camera modes enabled. Uninstall both, soft reset. Install camera fix, soft reset. In normal lit conditions you should see a tremendous improvement.

ah!! Thanks. Too bad - why can't we have the other modes and the faster focus? Is there a 3rd-party camera app that would give us both, or perhaps the eventual cooked ROMs might enable both - is that possible?
