Nokia 6680 Camera quality (or lack of) - non focus...

hi,
have just got a 6680 and whilst it seems and appears to be an all-singing-and-dancing phone, seems to have a couple of issue.
1/ using the main camera, anything past x1 magnification is blurred. Have tried cleaning lens, altering contrast etc. etc. even transfering pics to pc if issue with phone screen.
Not sure if a software problem or hardware (does the camera have any moving parts?!!)
Also keep getting memory full, generally once i've received a text message, though the phone and mmc are under 50-80% empty.
ps mp3 is great!

the 6680 phone just uses a very basic camera mounted on a board. there are no moving parts, all zooming and any type of focus would be handled in the software.
i used to use a 6680 and found it to produce very good images, if you want a phone with focus and even better quality images you should look for an n90. this phone has an auto focus etc.

i updated my software version to v52
i hated this camera

Here are a couple of example pictures I took with that camera.
All the best.

Capture picture with nokia 6680

I'm developing an application for Nokia 6680, and need to access the videoplayer through my gui so I can capture a picture and send it to a webserver.
I'm having trouble initializing the player. It throws a MediaException with Symbian OS error -5, "the operation requested is not supported".
It works just fine in WTK 2.2 and with SE K700.
I've also checked the supports.video.capture system-property, and it returns true.
Here's the code:
class CameraForm extends Form implements CommandListener {
private final MyMIDlet midlet;
private final Command exitCommand;
private Command captureCommand = null;
private Player player;
private VideoControl videoControl;
private boolean active=false;
private StringItem messageItem;
   public CameraForm(MyMIDlet midlet){
      super("Camera");
      this.midlet=midlet;
      messageItem = new StringItem("Message","start");
      append(messageItem);
      exitCommand=new Command("Exit",Command.EXIT,1);
      addCommand(exitCommand);
      setCommandListener(this);
      //initialize camera
      try {
         player = Manager.createPlayer("capture://video");
         player.realize();
         //Grab the videoControl and set it to the current display
         videoControl=(VideoControl)(player.getControl("VideoControl"));
         if(videoControl != null){
             append((Item)(videoControl.initDisplayMode(VideoControl.USE_GUI_PRIMITIVE,null)));
        captureCommand = new Command("Capture",Command.SCREEN,1);
        addCommand(captureCommand);
        messageItem.setText("OK");
    } else{
        messageItem.setText("No video control");
} catch(IOException ioe){
      messageItem.setText("IOException:"+ioe.getMessage());
} catch(MediaException me){
      messageItem.setText("MediaException cameraForm(): "+me.getMessage());
} catch(SecurityException se){
      messageItem.setText("Securityexception:"+se.getMessage());
}Thanks!

Peter,
Sorry for the late reply, have been really busy the past weeks.
Yesterday I got another Nokia 6680 on which my MIDlet wouldn't run. Got the MediaException -5 (meaning "Not Supported") again.
I tried the code *#7370# to hard reset the phone (see Step 1 below), with no success. But I did manage to get it working (after continuing with the procedure below).
The following explains the steps I followed:
NOTE: Backup all data on your phone before continuing as all will be lost!
Step 1:
a.) Enter the code *#7370#
b.) Answer [Yes] to the following prompt: "Restore all original phone settings? Phone will restart."
c.) Enter the security code when the phone prompts for it. (Default: 12345)
d.) The phone will now restart.
e.) Once restarted, all data will have been erased and the phone will ask you for some settings.
Step 2: This is a bit tricky...
a.) Turn off the phone.
b.) Press and hold the following keys: [Answer] + [*] + [3]
[Answer] = Answer key (green phone)
[*] = Star key
[3] = Numeric 3 key
c.) While holding the above keys, press the [Power] button to switch on the phone.
d.) Once again all data will have been erased and the phone will ask you for some settings.
Step 3:
Follow Step 1 again.
Install your application after each step and test to see if it isn't maybe working. My MIDlet only started working after completing Step 3. I am not sure if Step 1 is actually necessary, but I have listed it as this is the path I did folow.
That is it, hope this works for you.

Urgent Advice Nokia 6680

Hi. I need a big help. I own a Nokia 6680 that has lasted me for five years until yesterday. I usually maintain a four digit numeric password to access my cell whenever it is turned on. The digits are 2300. Once the password is entered then I will be have full access to use all the functions of the cell. Now the problem is that, the key pad number for Number 2 is not working! All other key pads are working. I took it to the local Nokia Care showroom where they say the problem is not the keypad but the board itself. I think they said the mother board is no longer working. However, if the motherboard is not working, then none of the keypads should work. Everything is working except for keypad Number 2. The Nokia Care persons tried replacing the keypad but still nothing worked. I am happy the 6680 has lasted me all these years, but the problem now is that I have more than 600 contact details on the phone memory that I am not able to access. Is there a WAY to break the password? Any software or device? Once the password is broken, then I can access the cell. Every few months I backup the phone memory details on the memory card but without accessing it on this cell, I am not able to retrieve it. That is the miserable part. I was told there is a software known as Noki Crack. Does this work? Or is there a simpler way? Please advice. Thank you.

Okey, I understand. Only a Nokia care point can fixe this for you as this is related to hw issue with your keyboard.

Bad camera quality

I resently update my lumia 620 in black, my camera not taking good pictures like before plzzz do help, and another issue, plzz make it posible 8.1 update for lumia 620

@tiny_chef
You should know by now that there is a huge camera quality drop since the Amber update (which was not repared by the black update).
If you don't know yet, then I suggest that you do some reading through the various forums about Windows Phone and Nokia : I think that you really need an update before to post/answer on this subject !
The photo quality with my friends L920 was superb when it still had Portico.
That is why I bought 2 L925 phones, but I discovered immediately that the photo quality was a lot worse than my friends pictures.
When my friends L920 got he Amber update, his photo quality dropped as well.
What were/and still are the quality drops
- The photos are not sharp enough anymore after the amber update, they are smoothened.
- All photos get a horrible yellowish tint
- Photos taken with flash are completely yellowish
The Nokia phones were known for their camera quality - Amber and Black destroyed this advantage completely.
Restarting the phone, etc etc etc does not help and you should have known it by now.
You guys at Nokia do not read what the customers are complaining about, or you think that we are just whining (rest assured, we are NOT WHINING without reason).
We love Nokia too much to let it get spoiled by developers who do not want to listen to us.

hello friends,
Im using nokia 6680 mobile....suddeenly it got a problem..when i open back cover for using of back camera...it gives error that....FUTURE NOT SUPPORTED........but front camera working fine.......pls help me to sort the problem...tks in adv.

Before you do any certain action
1)Have you tried restarting the phone?
2)Have you tried taking out the memory card?
Also check your phone memory if its full.If yes, remove some files.Maintain at least 50% free space on the phone memory.
Sometimes doing this steps fixes the problem.

Nokia Pro Cam: Color Temperature / Balance

As a creative I purchased this phone as to take better photos. As it does that sometimes others the auto color balance doesn't get it correct. Using the limited manual settings isn't very good either as usually they are worse. If anyone at nokia reads this would you please consider adding in 3-4 steps between each color balance setting so if say "sunny" is too warm you can go a step in one direction or the other to fine tune how it looks. Adding this feature would really make it a better application and help get perfect photos everytime. As of now the iphone auto color balance tends to look betteer, eventhough the quality of the Nokia images are better if the color isn't as pleasing then its all for nothing. Please add finer color balance / color temperature controls to the Nokia Pro Cam application!!

Photoshop CC has made Camera RAW available as a filter. That means it is easy to use it on video.
Can you do anything in Camera RAW to a video that you can't do the hard way with color correction and levels, etc, in Premiere Pro? No. Is it easier because you are used to the sliders? You bet!
This first frame is from a video I shot to test the codecs my camera can use. The trees are rather dark, because, well, I didn't care when I shot the video. I was concerned with the movement of the juggling toys.
But if I take it into Photoshop and use Camera RAW I can do very quickly what would take a lot longer, for me, in Premiere Pro. You will have to take my word for it that the color of the shirt in the corrected frame is more realistic. The Camera RAW settings were pretty much what I do to almost all of my photographs. Very slight adjustment to exposure, a little clarity, bring out the shadows, bring down the highlights that are too white and bring up the contrast.

When do we get our camera quality back ?

Hi
Do you know why I bought 2 Lumia 925 units ?
It is because I saw the photo quality on my friends Lumia 920 !
Very sharp pictures with true colors - really incredibly good.
My Lumia 925 units did however not offer the same quality.
- My friends 920 did not have AMBER when I saw his pictures
- My 925 came with Amber installed ex-factory
My friends 920 got the AMBER update some time after I purchased my 925 units
- And now he lost his picture quality too - AMBER degraded the picture quality !
Now we both have the BLACK updates installed (on 920 and 925 units)
The picture quality of the 920 prior to AMBER did not come back !
Hence my questions:
- What happened with camera/picture quality in the AMBER update ?
- Can this dreadful degradation of picture quality be undone ? How ? When ? By whom ?
Anyway, I cannot go on with my 925 units this way.
I bought them because of the said Nokia/Camera quality which is absolutely not present.
My guess is that something very wrongly changed in the jpg-processing of AMBER.

Pre-Black the Camera algorithms made for more saturated colours. While you say you perceived those as more real they are in fact not. It's much like a lot of people today when doing a blind test seem to still prefer the sound from vinyl records over CD because it's perceived warmer while it is in fact much more coloured.
The current settings actually produce more natural and real colours. Since the JPGs are generally of fairly good quality you can use tools such as paint.net to adjust them more to your liking.

Trouble with Nokia 6680 and iSync

I have a Nokia 6680 and an iMac. Recently I wanted to clean up my contact list but I'm having problems in this.
Contacts created in the phone get transfered to my computer with iSync easy, but I can't transfer all my contacts created in my iMac to the Nokia 6680.
It used to work sincronizing a hundred contacts, but now I can't do it with 40 or 50. It's supposed to work all the ways but it doesn't.
What should I do? Is there any kind of limitation with my phone or iSync?

Hi trav!
We're having the exact same problem. If you search this forum (and others), you'll find more threads regarding this issue..
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=641445&tstart=60
http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?s=61e4114bdf2a110921bfd4bc2af40862&threadid=64240
It seems to be impossible to get in touch with Nokia developers. They are probably on vacation..
We've struggled with this for about 2 weeks now,and the most likely reason is:
1. It's a bug
2. The locator url has changed since the phone has two cameras.

Nokia 6120c camera green lines

Can u pls help me with my problem of my nokia 6120c camera after taking a picture especially in dark area there was
a color green lines, my friend nokia mobile same model as mine there was no problem even when u shot on any dark area. i update already my software online now V 05.11 21-04-08 RM 243 Nokia 6120c (B20.01). is there any software to correct this problem?

taking a photo in dark areas, of course there will be green lines, this is due to the low sensitivity of the 6120's camera to low light areas. this is a normal process, this will occur with any poorer-quality camera, whether it be a standalone digital or mobile phone camera. other phones may not have this effect as their camera sensors are better at coping with low light situations, have higher megapixel count etc.
so to answer your question, i doubt that any software update would resolve this issue, as this is completely normal to occur

Nokia 6680 firmware update

Has anyone else had trouble updating the nokia 6680 firmware. My current firmware is V3.04.11 and i have read that the new version is V5.04.07 but the updater says there is no updates for my phone.

Or [latest version] for your operator variant... If you have operator spesific phone it's SW releases are approved by operator and Nokia's updater apparently is kind enough to install only latest version of whatever your dear operator has approved for you. My 6680 (generic, non-subsidised version) updated to 5.04.07 just fine with the updater.
