Hey guys, i have these 2 lovely items from SE. I hate the photos quality in the T300, but I love them when I send them to my laptop. I have two questions for both items.
When I plug the camera in T300 it's supposedly to enter the camera's menu automatically, but a lot of times it doesn't usually do this, I have to inplug and plug again the camera and soometimes it works but a lot of times it stays like that; any ideas why does this happen?
What's the recommended "boost color" for the MCA-25?
And finally, what does the "White Balance" feature means?

I have the same problems with mca-25 as you. Sometimes I even need to restart the phone so that camera will work. The recommended boost color value is the default 13, I think. White balance is used to adjust the white color in all light situations.

Could it be that some of the connecters are getting dirty or not connecting proberly- try cleaning it?!?!?

Well you could use alcohol, but turn off your phone first and take out the battery. Just use cotton and alcohol to clean the connectors, both on your phone and camera, also on other accesories you have, like handsfree. I will try it.
