How to test N900 front camera without 3G sim or to...

I just brought a brand new N900 device & haven't tested the front camera, I not have 3G sim card & also wants to know if possible to take pictures with front camera, thanks.

You can't use the front camera for taking photos yet.
to Test it, you can use an application called 'Mirror' that is available from the extras repository in the app manager or bu following this link on your N900 http://maemo.org/downloads/product/raw/Maemo5/mirror/?get_installfile
I believe the only other app to support the front camera is Skype, but you need PR 1.2 for that to work with the camera

    How do i activate iphone 4s without a SIM card from a supported carrier?

    Only the carrier your phone is locked to can authorize your phone's official unlocking. You'll have to contact them as to cost/procedure. Note: Most carriers will not authorize official unlocking unless you are a current or former customer, using that phone, on their network.

  • How can I use N900 Front Cam?

    There is a front web cam in n900. How can I make use of it/activate it? I tried my best, there seem to be no option for me to choose the front cam. What about I want to make 3G video call just like anyother 3G phone?

    As the authour of healthcheck i'd like to echo the "Early adopters" comment.
    Not only is the OS still new, the device is the first of it's type.
    It may not have everything built in straight away but the possibilities really are great.
    I had never coded until 20'th feb (For the N900/Maemo, Python or QT), and 20 days later my first version was in maemo downloads.
    Things do take time, and the only reason healthcheck came about was because two us decided we needed a noob (New Person) friendly system checker. I even made a brainstorm for this idea to get it going. Lots of people added opinions - so i just got on with it
    The front camera never really had a defined purpose, but it was added ... a bonus i say.....
    As PR 1.2 Draws closer - you never know there may be added funtionality with it!
    All i can say is, instead of fussing, turn your effort into describing exactly what you want, speak to sopme developers and see where you go - if you really do want something, then the chances are you can work to getting it done reasonably quickly!
    And being linux based, the chances are if you can alreadydo it in terminal, and app to do it will be very easy also! (Gstreamer is pretty effective when used effectivly!)

  • How can i  take pictures in front camera without the mirror effect

    I took pctures with front camera and was ok but now when i take pictures with front caera the pictures are in the opposite way like the mirror effect how can i fix it

    Hi landscapedesigner !!
    Thanks for the points.
    There are several ways to send pictures from a PC to an iPad. I give you some suggestions.
    1) use iCloud on your PC  http://www.apple.com/ca/icloud/setup/pc.html
    In this way you can upload picture to iCloud and have them on the iPad. If you need more help you can search here or come back to me.
    2)sending the pictures as eMail attachments to your iCloud address form the PC. You may be limited by dimensions, if you can reduce the size of the picture to 500Kb or 1Gb it will be enough on the iPad
    3) use Goodreader on iPad. It has the possibility to use the WiFi and while both your PC and iPad are on the same WiFi the iPad can be seen as an external Drive by the PC and the files can be transferred locally on the net whithout limit of dimension. I do it from my Mac, it is not very simple but not difficoult and should be possible from PC too, but I have no experience.  It is not free but not expensive
    4) use Dropbox. It is a service Free until a certain space. You load the pictures to a local folder on your PC and it will be seen by the iPad.
    I have all the 4 and use them according my needs.
    5) Best solution - BUY A MAC -
    Ciao

    It beggers belief as to why have a camera on the front if you cant use it. 
    Because people would probably have complained if it didn't have one at all
    At the end of the day, the issue here is only software. The hardware is already in place.
    You can't easily add hardware to something afterwards without a complete redesign
    It reminds me of the old Nokia 6630. It supported video calling but had no front camera.
    You either had to use the back camera or buy a separate stand to sit the phone in that had a forward facing camera on

    you can only turn on the front camera if you have the option to turn it on in the menu. As far as I heard, E71x has such an option. If your phone is not that version, you cant.

    1) find a program that prints to pdf, or some other file
    2) print to pdf or some other file instead of printing to a printer.

  • How can i use my iphone without a sim card

    I updated my iphone 3gs and now it wont let me use it without my sim card, is there a way to un-update it or something?

    It needs a SIM card to activate. Downgrading iOS is not supported, but even if it was, you would still need a SIM to activate it. Just get a SIM, it doesn't need to have active service on it. The SIM is just required for the initial activation, and you can take it out afterwards.

  • How can i use my camera without stain again and again.  

    That camera has an awful product ever i have known. Purple lines,black stains and some blob that have occured & in here there is no warrent.

    Well, you've got a problem with no easy solution then. iPhone warranty/support is limited to country of original purchase(except for the EU). You're gonna have to figure out how to get the phone to Apple in the US...you can't mail it directly to Apple. You could mail it to a friend/relative, & they could take it to Apple for you, then mail the phone back to you.
    Good luck.

  • How to fix your front camera?

    a few weeks ago my facetime camera stopped working. it just stays blurry like the way it does when you flip the camera. I've updated it and it still does not work. its bee like this for a week.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Did anyone ever figure out how to fix the front camera on the ipod touch?

  • How can i activate an iphone without  a sim card?

    i need help my friend just gave me his iphone 4s since he upgraded to a 5s and i dont want to use it with a sevice i just want it to be like an ipod where i can listen to music and stuff but its telling me it wont activate till a sim card is installed and i tried connecting it to itunes but the same thing pops up i need to installa sim card i just need help to active it that's all

    See if you can borrow the friend's SIM card. You do not have to have cellular service, but you do need a SIM card to activate the phone. After activation, you can remove the SIM, however do not update the iOS on the device unless you have access to another SIM.

  • How can i find my iphone without the sim?

    Unless you're phone is connected to WiFi or has a data connection through you're carrier, you won't be able to locate the phone.
