Other modders are alway welcome !

Hi Kelace, I was impressed by your non-agressive post on your damaged cam module due to factory defect. try asking impatient users and they would even curse and stay away from SE if that happens to them
Good Luck and continue posting K550 sample shots mate

I was impressed too by Keylace non-agressivity and kindness.
He must be a good man !

Hi guys
thanx 4 a lot for those comments
Well actually as leshcat suggested I am not that rich and k550i is my only phone
.... My sister has a k750i and my mother has a j200i .... thats it ....
I had been closely observing my phone's camera photos very carefully. The problem was actually progressing bit by bit and I was somehow aware of this situtation ..... the lines were appearing sometimes 4 say , may b last 4 weeks at sometimes ... especially in night time photos
ALSO WHO CAN NEVER DISSAPOINT THE GOOD EFFORT OF OUR FORUM MEMBERS IN MODDING THE CAMERA DRIVERS !!!! SUCH EFFORTS .... TRIALS ....FEEDBACKS .... OPEN MINDEDNESS ......
AND I WAS GETTING RESULTS WITH CHRISS'S MODDED DRIVERS BOTH VERSIONS A & B .....
SO FRIENDS CONTINUE THE GOOD WORK GUYS ..... THERE IS A LOT OF SCOPE FOR IMPROVEMENT IN K550i's CAMDRIVER ........
SURE I'LL TEST WHATEVER U GUYS COMEUP WITH........ WHEN I GET MY PHONE BACK FROM SONY'S SERVICE CENTRE ....
:-):-)

Well...i ve got some news for u guys. Another smart guy from Russia made new driver ...
Log:
"2.32 (non official) SonarikK510 customization: 2007.09.17
Settings framerate to 25fps in normal VR mode.
Change framerate from 15fps to 24fps in Night Mode viewfinder.
2.31 (non official) SonarikK510 customization: 2007.09.15
Change buffer size for VGA, 1MP and 2MP resolutions
Settings framerate to 20fps in normal VR, and set to 15fps in Nightmode
95 percents quality in High Quality (low compression mode)
Change maximal and middle sizes of capture in High Quality, in VGA,1MP and 2MP resolutions."
Looks like he took some sample code from 2.4 driver. I will test it . 2.4 and 2.32. Stay frosty till my comparison post.
Posted by chris067
Uh, i cant see anything new ! But i've not seen the camdriver0.dat file,
so i cant be sure. Better taking a look at the code to see what has
been modded rather. Can you give a link please ?
I have nothing against people stealing my work, as soon as
it is not a carbon copy and some more work is improving camdriver...
... but this seems to be exactly whas has been done before.
Raiderski gave me some pretty interesting explanations about
assembler code (from general camdriver sheme, not specific to K550).
As soon as i have more free time, i will take a deeper look into all this stuff,
as it's not that easy to understand.

hi, i guess the new drivers are absolutely stunning....
Posted by Leshcat
Photo comparison (visual,not math "blablabla") 2.4 and 2.32 i ve spoken several post ago.
So,3 first-hand pictures(there was no election of the best of several)pictures were taken: View,Macro,Lowlight place. What is better - ups to you.
2.4 View:
2.32 View:
Almost the same but as for Me, sign on far building is clearer in 2.32 and red car in 1-st line is sharper.
2.4 Macro:
2.32 Macro:
No comments.
2.4 Lowlight:
2.32 Lowlight:
So..see for yourself .

+ new number1 driver:
Macro:
Too shaarpy rof me..u can see even white dots.
Posted by number1
thats looks alright not to sharp if it was too sharp there would be jagged edges
Posted by salambaba
In 2.4a chris we have two lines for sharping option :
first :
// #COM_EVENT(56,04) //Sharpness 4
Second :
//************************************************
// Sharpening, property 21 ***
//************************************************
//
// 0 => Lowest ..... 16 => Highest
//
//---------------------------------------------------
seq_set_prop_15 = $s5 %0
$-5 0F // Chris130907 from 08 to 0F
#COM_EVENT(56,$w5);
wich one is correct one ?
and this two lines what r doing ?
[ This Message was edited by: salambaba on 2007-09-27 11:19 ]
Posted by chris067
to salambala :
first line is only comment, see the // at the beginning, so no effect.
second line is real code, so if you change
$-5 0F // Chris130907 from 08 to 0F
to
$-5 01 // Chris130907 from 08 to 0F
it will give NO sharpening at all.
original was 08, that mean AVERAGE sharpening.
I put this value to F, this is MAXIMUM sharpening.
Remember possible values are :
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
of course i encourage you to mod these values and see what the best value is, and post your pictures.
to number 1 :
thx for modding,
please always post picture comparison between one driver and another,
so we can see the difference, like Leshcat is doing.
to Leshcat:
thx for comparison, thats the best way to see if modifications gives
improvement or not
Posted by number1
i don't have a k550i so i can't test.
and to change sharpness look under macros and u will see
#COM_EVENT(56,FF) 00 is the lowest 08 is highest
don't change the digital correction sharpness
Posted by salambaba
I think i can mod 2.4a chris driver to more sharpness :
You can download and test it from :
http://amirfarzam.4shared.com
( it called 2.5_mod_amirfarzam.zip )
I'm waiting for your replay and sample pics .

Comments in driver are saying that You've used chris 2.4a old driver for modification...why???
In any case,DEAR Modders(exept Chris
)!Please,when u are posting ur own modification of driver, please mention(!) what was the source.
Because,its becoming kind of hard to recognize new drivers,couse right now i have something like 3 camdriver0.dat without any name(whom is it) or comments in driver.
Also,i suggest to make some kind "system of names" for drivers. The Global driver's name must be decided by Chis(we all know why
).Other modders should take ,for example, 2.4 driver,make some changes and name it "2.4.1" ,in driver's comment reflect changes.
Othervise,soon,for example John Connor will come and say:"Hey here is my new driver,i named it 2.7,(10.5 e.t.c),its very cool!".Its really confusing.
Why thank you, Chris
Here are the results of "2.5 arash" driver:
Macro 1:
Macro 2:
Red color is reflection of w610i
View:
Quite impressive as for me

Maybe it's not on topic, but it's possible to flash K550i camera software to W610i? I have a W610i and the camera software it's weak.
I use chrisdriver 2.4a

@ dasefx
There is no difference in the camera modules of k550i and w610i. They are identical hardwares .
So just try the 2.4 and 2.5 modded camera drivers and try them out .... All the forum members are working hard 4 still more perfection ...
Sure we can catch up with the big brother k750i ......
Only time will tell .....
Posted by hab_ull
@Leshcat
What setting you use to take these pics i have w610 too but its cam pics not sharp like your cam pics i m also using 2.4 arash mod
Posted by dasefx
kelace:
I am referring to the software not the driver. W610i and W550i have different software...
In other hand: Can you copy paste script from W800i camera driver? My brother has an W800i and the differences of pictures in darker places are huge.
[ This Message was edited by: dasefx on 2007-09-27 18:54 ]

@ dasefx
The camera driver file which is installed in k550 and w610i are exactly the same !!!! The only difference is that when u open the k550i cam , the cyershot name is first shown .....
U can't use the camdriver file of w800i as it has a dedicated night mode .... where as w610i and k550i does'nt have it . So the camdriver wont work in our mobiles.
( the large cam module is the reason 4 good night shots in the old models like k750i,w800i,w810i,etc .... )
So for now .. u will hav to try the modded versions v 2.4 and 2.5 ......
Also 4got this ... the camera software is mainly constituted by the camdriver0.dat file ... so the code in this file determines the settings in the photos ......

Auto scene + Auto Focus:-

Posted by polarbearz
Outdoor shots (Auto focus + Auto Scene):-
Forgot to say, all my photos are taken on w610i with modded 2.5.1 cam driver.
Posted by salambaba
I relase the 2.52 (not 3.52 excuse me) very soon with this option :
low noise in picture in dark area
more sharp without noise and edge
Advance Focus Setting ( AFS )
I think its complete in 1 or 2 day . test the 2.51 driver and write your commands .

I propose calling the drivers: "username" 1.0
I ask if it's possible to copy some values form W800i (in the driver script).....not all script.

thanks but i still have the CID51 problem. tutorial says that i must have cid52, whilst i have 51. i tried SEUS but it says no update available. also, how can i be sure that the firmware will not affect my phone, as my k550i is branded (TIM Brazil) and blocked by the operator? tks much!

@Leshcat
I dont like EM in second version because it not work fine its crash in most mode .
and excuse me i will relase MY 2.52 version and i change the name of it :
2.5_mod_arash ----> 2.5_mod_amirfarzam
2.51_mod_arash ----> 2.51_mod_amirfarzam
@cloroforme
If you want to convert it to W610 without Update it to CID52 u need only
flash your MAIN with W610i CID51 and you can download it with this link :

How about 2.52?
Posted by Charge
This thread is getting a little confusing...
Can someone sum up the different drivers for me?
Posted by Leshcat
2 Charge
Here We go:
1.Chris067 Driver. Main driver. Based on first driver for K550/W610 made by russian DK that originally fixed VR to 24 FPS. There was 3 Releases,u can find it on 1-st page.
2.Sometimes number1 posts his fix-drivers based on chris07 drivers.
3.There was 2.32 driver made by russian guy SonarikK510. Almost copy of Chris067 Drivers.
4.Finally 2.5(2.51,2.52)_mod_arash driver renamed --> 2.5(2.51,2.52)_mod_amirfarzam. Was two releases 2.5 and 2.51. Waiting for 2.52.
This were main Modders,i hope i didnt forget someone O_o.

Thanks

Hi to all
I'm very very sorry about relase of my 2.52
I cant mod a camdriver with low noise i try still . excuse me
Posted by Charge
Don't blame yourself. Its tough because the k550i has an inferior cam module.
I'm using your 2.51 driver now by the way... its nice.
Posted by salambaba
NOW i relase the 2.52 for K550i+W610i :
i think its bee the best until now for those phones .

//____Reduce sharpness to 05
