Hi all
@zungi
As i see the manual shutter speed, not works.
I need EXIF – Properties.
Try camera driver test for Enhance mode (EM).
http://rapidshare.com/files/6[....]est_for_Enhance_mode__K550.zip
Picture Quality FINE => Scene Sport.
Adjust EV (+/-) to change value.
k750 cid49 FW(w800 r1bc002)

Have you tried SonarikK510 V2.34?, with that you should be able to achieve it.

Now the number of camdriver versions is over ten and it's so exhausting job (change camdriver, make some shots, change camdriver again and so on) to obtain results to compare. So I understand why we see so rarely the results of comparisons in this thread and I came to the method of customization of hidden file system (FS) through the rebooting. It's very convenient and I want to share it with u. This information could be interesting for those who wants to quickly (in a minute or less) change camdriver used by phone without using a computer. And so it is especially helpful for camdriver testers.
All info is taken from http://www.sony-ericsson.ru/f[....]x.php?showtopic=37226&st=0 and http://forum.se-zone.ru/viewtopic.php?t=1706 (respect to ego, R.I.P., Intento and others) Russian sites so i tried to translate it.
In simple phrase the matter is when we select 'Menu->Settings->Master reset->Reset settings' or reboot our phone something occurs in it. Some of this operations r described in 'TPA/PRESET/DEFAULT/cmz_config.xml' in section <protocol name="MR settings"> (for 'Reset settings') or <protocol name="upgrade"> (for rebooting). Disadvantage of 'Reset settings' is u lose some settings (e-mail accounts, time zone etc) so I chose rebooting. The section <protocol name="upgrade"> in my phone (R1GB001 and above) looked like this:
<protocol name="upgrade">
<parse-mask>u</parse-mask>
<cmz-mode>0x2e2</cmz-mode> <!-- CMZ_Mode_DDM | CMZ_Mode_All | CMZ_Mode_Upgrade | CMZ_Mode_Settings | CMZ_Mode_FirstStartup -->
<use-old-cust>true</use-old-cust>
<parse-file>/tpa/preset/default/default_upgrade.xml</parse-file>
<cmz-mode>0x2e1</cmz-mode> <!-- CMZ_Mode_CMZ | CMZ_Mode_All | CMZ_Mode_Upgrade | CMZ_Mode_Settings | CMZ_Mode_FirstStartup -->
<use-old-cust>true</use-old-cust>
<parse-file>/tpa/preset/custom/customize_upgrade.xml</parse-file>
</protocol>
The idea is to substitute 'TPA/PRESET/DEFAULT/default_upgrade.xml' by our script file (e.g. 'USB/OTHER/default_upgrade.xml' if we r going to use script 'default_upgrade.xml' in folder 'Other' in the PHONE or 'CARD/OTHER/default_upgrade.xml' if we r going to use script 'default_upgrade.xml' in folder 'Other' on the MEMORY CARD). So we have 2 ways (samples for using 'default_upgrade.xml' in folder 'Other' in the PHONE):
1) Take original 'TPA/PRESET/DEFAULT/cmz_config.xml' and edit <protocol name="upgrade"> section as follows:
<protocol name="upgrade">
<parse-mask>u</parse-mask>
<cmz-mode>0x2e2</cmz-mode> <!-- CMZ_Mode_DDM | CMZ_Mode_All | CMZ_Mode_Upgrade | CMZ_Mode_Settings | CMZ_Mode_FirstStartup -->
<use-old-cust>true</use-old-cust>
<parse-file mode="mandatory">/usb/other/default_upgrade.xml</parse-file>
<cmz-mode>0x2e1</cmz-mode> <!-- CMZ_Mode_CMZ | CMZ_Mode_All | CMZ_Mode_Upgrade | CMZ_Mode_Settings | CMZ_Mode_FirstStartup -->
<use-old-cust>true</use-old-cust>
<parse-file>/tpa/preset/custom/customize_upgrade.xml</parse-file>
</protocol>
Upload this file to 'TPA/PRESET/DEFAULT/cmz_config.xml' using any way ( FS/FC/Setool2lite/SEFP...). Create ur 'default_upgrade.xml' in folder 'Other' in the PHONE. It will work from the next reboot.
2) Create ur own 'customize_upgrade.xml' with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<customization>
<file-operations>
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="link" source="usb/other/default_upgrade.xml" dest="tpa/preset/default/default_upgrade.xml" />
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="chmod" dest="tpa/preset/default/default_upgrade.xml" attr="r" />
</file-operations>
</customization>
Save this file with UTF-8 encoding(!) and upload it to 'TPA/PRESET/CUSTOM/customize_upgrade.xml' using any way. Create ur 'default_upgrade.xml' in folder 'Other' in the PHONE (it must exist before rebooting). It will work from the second reboot because during the first reboot we make our substitution AFTER the OLD 'default_upgrade.xml' worked (as u can c in 'cmz_config.xml').
Now we can do almost everithing with our FS (so be careful). But return to camdrivers. This is what i did with my phone (it's just a sample, u can do it in ur way):
1) Created subfolders 'customize_FS' in folders 'Other' of PHONE and MEMORY CARD (just for convenience).
2) Put to 'customize_FS' on CARD following http://www.mediafire.com/?1mzglpmnmww (unpack)
3) Put to 'customize_FS' in PHONE trial 'default_upgrade.xml':
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<customization>
<file-operations>
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="copy" source="usb/other/customize_FS/test1.txt" dest="usb/other/customize_FS/test2.txt" />
</file-operations>
</customization>
and some test1.txt just to test if this method works
4) Used Setool2 Lite 1.08 and http://www.mediafire.com/?7fcbjj1lqxz for method 1) and http://www.mediafire.com/?23ibz1ixgzy for method 2)
5) If we obtained test2.txt in the same folder with the same content as test1.txt all we did is correct
6) Any time we want to change camdriver just copy 'default_upgrade.xml' from respective subfolder of 'customize_FS' on CARD to 'customize_FS' in PHONE and reboot. If u have no computer on hand u can use for copying any file manager (I use MiniCommander http://kys.h15.ru/p_minicommander/ )
Now we have another camdriver. U can check its version using >*<<*<*
PROS
- u change hiddeh FS once (the way u used every time to change ur camdriver earlier)
- in future to add new camdriver u can use ur phone as simple mass storage device (in the 'File transfer' mode) on ANY computer (u don't need installed phone or flasher drivers) or u can use Bluetooth or IR
- change is as fast as u can turn ur phone off and on again
- u r no longer chained to ur computer
- at the present time this is the only way to read files from the hidden FS for db2020 CID49/51/52 (useful for backup)
CONS
- no 
I'm sorry for so big post. I'll be glad if some1 read it to the end. I just tried to make ur life easier

I think video is the weakest part of this cameraphone (and phone at all) and this is caused by hardware limitations. In dark we have choice:
- normal ISO - average frames quality but low FPS
- or normal ISO - high FPS but dark frames
- or high ISO - high FPS but low frame quality because of noise or strong noise reduction ("soap")
IMHO video is something that doesn't worth mentioning here and in deed I rarely pay any attention to it in new camdrivers for K550/W610. |
