Compression is already at 90% so increasing shouldn't make a noticeable difference (expect in filesize ).
It's just that the sensor sucks

And by editing these lines, you won't achieve anything, since they are just comments and they are not parsed by the phone.
If you wanted to have quality 95 instead of 90 you will probably have to edit line 562 to something like this:
#SET_REG(19,5F)
.
However, I'm not sure if that would work...

the most important hack needed for the K800 driver is to ramp down the compression somewhat. The images are way too compressed, I'd like to see a driver with less jpg compression on images.


For example would this be worth trying:
// 9 => low 3MP 990 940 800 95

??

I know, but I'm just hoping something can be done. Maybe it's more a matter of changing the noise algorithms, all I know is compared to K750 the sensor must really suck if that's the best it can do!

Here's the modded compression driver, includes kopritis' sharpness mod:
http://rapidshare.com/files/46258856/camdriver0.rar.html (95% compression - instead of default 90%)

Anyone can test?

CCD CMOS
System Complexity High Low

That's why K800 hasn't got any (seriously) modded camera drivers...

Kopritis, I think you fell for the "cybershot" name! As wishmaster says only S700 has CCD in camera phone!

Yea guys you have right!!

i found this:
Camera’s module is 3.2mpx, it is made by CMOS-technology. Only 4 resolutions are supported – 3MP, 2MP, 1MP, VGA. The phone does not...........

on this site: http://www.mobile-review.com/review/sonyericsson-wilma-3-en.shtml

That's why the SE phones are cheap... cmos sensors are more cheaper from ccd sensors... (i think)

I feel like S****d

Mongoose!, if ever you read this thread please try this on your K800. i think this is supposed to address your K800 image quality issue

Is there any chance of modding the camera driver for other phones too? especially the K610/W710/W850/S500/W580 which all have high JPEG compression

We haven't really fixed anything yet, the work has only just begun and we haven't even had any testers yet. I'll be doing the cmz_config hack soon - then I'll start testing. If advanced driver modders can then start assisting it will be great - I'll be a willing tester but I'm not as up on the drivers as some other guys.
