[RELEASE] All-In-One Touch Pro Camera Hidden Mode Mod

So after flashing a beta ROM sometime back, I was presented with an option in my camera settings that I have since been trying to chase down.

It was the option to save to the Storage Card and be able to use the "Date & Time" as the prefix, which by default is only allowed when you save to the main memory.

Now after tons of searching and finding out way more info about the camera than I ever really wanted to know, I've finally found that ONE setting to do the above. Yup, it came down to 1 reg tweak.

But more than that, I noticed that though there is a ton of info out about the camera, it's settings and special non-enabled modes... there's really not one good place to go about finding that info.


That is what i hope to do here.
And that is what this Cab does.


First I will post the cab I made that will basically turn on all these special modes for you and fine tune/tweak the settings for these new modes.

Second I will post the actual reg entries it makes/changes and what those do.



I want to make it very clear that I didn't pioneer most of the work done by this cab, I simply extracted the data from the registry, put it together, and posted the settings it changes in one place.

For me, the origins of these settings came from a beta ROM I tested from scrosler... and a provxml he used to build that ROM must have contained these settings. So if these look familiar to you, please let me know and I will give credit where credit is do!

Everything that is touched by this cab can be found at:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera and it's subs.

So while this cab is uninstallable, backing this location up before installation is always a safe bet... and with that i will toss in the standard, if you break it, it's not my fault... yada yada yada.


ENJOY!

Here I'll be posting all the raw reg entries and what they do.....


EDIT: In the meantime though, i'll post some basics of what the cab does.

Adds the following shooting modes:
-Burst
-Sports
-GPS
-Video Share


-Sets Burst and Sports mode to 3 MegaPixel

-Sets Panoramic mode to 7 MegaPixel

-Edits Video Frame rate for higher quality.

-Removes the use of the of the "DCMI\100MEDIA" directoiry when saving to the Storage Card.

-Allows save to "My Documents\My Pictures" on the Storage Card.

-Allows for "Default", "Date" & "Date & Time" prefixing of images when saving to the Storage Card.



.... and more, just wanted to get a basic description up.
I managed to delete my txt file detailing all the settings and description so I'll have to redo it... that took me forever to format it all nicey nice and stuff. Damn!

"So while this cab is uninstallable..."
Am I missing something totally obvious to everyone else? Is the cab broken, or is that line a clever 'you break it, tough crap' disclaimer?

thx...

i think he believes that this cab is "bad", hence hie believes thats the reason you trew the disclaimer out there. but for as long as he has been here, he should know that when dealing with registries the posters always put that disclaimer out there.

now my question is this, if i dont like what this does,which i doubt i wont, then i should writte down all the "original" regs just in case i want to go back to original, because i can only do it manually? thanks.

yeah you can or you can do what i do and make a word document and copy and paste them in there and title it and save on my storage card and backup on my pc in ppc reg folder i have

I've just never seen "this cab is uninstallable..." specifically when combined with the standard disclaimer...
"and with that i will toss in the standard, if you break it, it's not my fault... yada yada yada."

Whatever... no worries... carry on... nothing to see here... move along...

btw,
Thanks for the work, D/\sh...
