Problem with Nokia Camera and Smart Sequence

Hi,
I'm having a problem with Nokia Camera and the Smart Sequence mode.
Basically, if you take a picture using nokia camera, and view it in your camera roll, it usually says, underneath the pic "open in nokia camera".
Well, if I take a pic using the Smart Sequence mode, it just doesn't say "open in nokia camera" so, to use the functions of smart sequence (best shot, motion focus, etc), I have to open nokia camera, go to settings and tap the "Find photos and videos shot with nokia camera" option.
Does anyone has the same problem? Anybody solved it?
I already tried reinstalling nokia camera, but that didn't help.
I'm running Nokia Black on my 925.
Thanks everyone!

Hi,
I had the same problem with my 1020. It did get fixed with the last update to Nokia camera.
However, IIRC, it didn't just happen right away. When browsing the camera roll I'm pretty sure that the "open with Nokia camera" text wasn't there.
Slightly disappointed I opened the (Nokia) camera anyway and was going to test the smart sequence again. I noticed the only precious pic I'd taken using this actually appeared top left of the screen.
I opened it and I had all the smart sequence editing options again - that we're missing previous. Made a new picture and saved it.
Now when in camera roll the text shows below the image and all is good.
This probably doesn't help much except that it didn't seem to fix automatically.
I work @Nokia so I can ask around a bit to see if this is a known / common issue (not that I know any developers)

  • Problems with Nokia 6070 and CA-42 cable

    Hi I have Nokia 6070, CA-42 cable, downloaded newest Nokia PC Suite (6.82), but I still have problems with connection. When I plug cable into the phone, it say : Data enhancement connected, and then Enhancement not supported. I properly installed Nokia PC Suite, but I still don´t have connection, because PC can´t recognise my phone. I tried many advices written here on discussion, like repairing cable drivers, re-installing PC Suite, restarting PC, but nothing works. Could you give me advice ?. Further informations in attached screenshot. http://img250.imageshack.us/img250/1193/nokia3in.jpg regards Viliam Tomaníček, Slovakia

    12th Jan, 2010
    Ok guys let's see if this helps...  the problem is NOT Nokia PC Suite, the USB to Nokia Enhancement connector ie; the CA-42 data cable, your cell phone or your computer. 
    It's in your computer' settings... The answer to this problem with this particular cable is actually in the Nokia PC Suite "Help".  It's  under "Configuring connection types"  They  refer to it by name. 
    Unfortunately, (1) you kinda have to stumble into it... thank goodness I did and,   (2) you kinda have to be a bit of a computer geek to understand what they are trying to say... 
    The point is that they are basically tricking the computer to "see" the USB cable as a 9 or 25 pin serial DIN cable connection that would normally go into the COM1 or COM2 ports, which are still on the back of some PCs, but not available on modern laptops anymore. 
    My PC is Windows XP Service Pack 3.  I will describe what I had to do to get the cable to work.  Vista and Windows 7 users… just follow the principle. 
    You need to (1) configure Nokia PC Suite as well as (2) your PC/Laptop (in Control Panel) to "see" the USB connection as - COM3... here's how I did it for my PC. 
    Step - 1:  Install the CA-42 Cable Drivers first using the install CD that was provided with the cable using "Found New Hardware"  remember this is the XP experience... 
    Some preamble - I thought that installing the Nokia PC Suite does all the cable driver bits as well, but it looks like you actually have to install the cable drivers (Note – cable drivers first) and then the Nokia PC Suite app software separately.  I got a “file not found error - ser2pl.sys” installing Nokia PC Suite.  You don’t get that when you let the “Found New Hardware” wizard install it from the install CD. Don't restart your computer until the end of this rather lengthy two-step process... just click "Restart later"...  I'll tell you when to restart... 
    START POINT (Still Step 1) - Ok, so now we are starting....
    Shut down your system...
    Plug in the CA-42 USB cable into a USB port.  Important here… if you have a PC, decide on which USB port you are going to use ie; front or back USB ports.  If you successfully install the cable drivers on one USB port, you cannot go taking out the USB cable and sticking it into another USB port on the same computer.  You will lose the cable driver install completely.  However if you plug the USB cable back into the original USB port used to install the cable driver software, it will re-appear in “Device Manager”.  Maybe it does the same with laptops as well, I do not know.. 
    Turn on your system...  do not connect your phone to the CA-42 cable yet. 
    On restarting, Windows will find new device (CA-42 USB to Serial), try to install it automatically and come back and say... it was not installed properly (probably because of COM port conflicts)... let that finish, close it off and ....
    While that was happening a "Found New Hardware"  wizard will appear...let it happen.. do not close this.. let it sit and wait, we want to use this.... it is going to ask for the install CD, but guess what... when you insert the install CD (at least, if it's the same as the on I got) it’s going to kick off yet another install process.   
    Put the supplier's install CD in your player, that is going to kick off the CD's automatic install (autorun.inf),  cancel it off.. do not run the automatic CD's install, it will not work !.  Continue with Found New Hardware and let Windows find the CA-42 cable drivers on the install CD (from your drive D: or whatever) and install… do not restart your computer yet.
    At the end of this, if you check Settings - Control Panel - System - Hardware - Device Manager - Ports (COM & LPT),  you should see an entry for - "CA-42 USB (COM something).  That COM something will probably be COM1 or COM2.  Highlight this and right click.. go Properties, Port Settings, Advanced – In XP, there is a box to select “COM Port No.”  Set this to COM3.  The driver should say that the “device is working properly”.  Click Apply, OK and exit Control Panel….  Do not restart yet.. 
    So now we have XP set… let’s set the app…. Nokia PC Suite 
    STEP 2 – Setting Nokia PC Suite. 
    Some preamble - In July 2009, I bought version 6.4.8 of Nokia PC Suite with the CA-42 cable.  I installed it and I was unable to get the cell phone to see “Nokia PC Suite”.  After much trial and error, I flung it aside. 
    Well this past weekend , I decided to have another go at it. 
    I uninstalled it and downloaded and installed a more recent version from Nokia’s support site… version 7.1.40.1  … cell phone still giving “Enhancement not supported” message.  Could not believe that I was that unlucky… 
    Again after much trial and error, I got it to work – a classic case of the simplest thing being so darn difficult…. So here goes.. 
    Download the latest version of  “Nokia PC Suite”, if the version you get is the one I got (7.1.40.1), , then you need to -  
    Do not connect the CA-42 cable to your phone yet.  It should be connected to your computer on the USB end in it’s original install USB port !!
    Start up Nokia PC Suite - Go Settings, Manage Connections
    Tick off only “Serial Cable (CA-42), this should be in the list assuming you installed it correctly in Step 1
    Highlight it and the little spanner (Configure) at the bottom should now be enabled
    Click on Configure.. the little spanner
    If it is saying “COM1” click on the little down arrow to the right.  COM3 should come up in the list
    Click on COM3… stop right here,  do nothing
    NOW….  you plug in the Enhancement end of the cable into your phone.  If it still gives the “Enhancement not Supported” error, don’t panic.  Make sure the cable is into the phone nice and secure.  By the way, this cable tends to get “Disconnected” with the slightest movement of my almost 4yr old Nokia 6101.  Make sure you are not using the phone and the phone is in standby mode.  The phone MUST NOT be in “Contacts” or some other menu available in the phone otherwise it will not connect to Nokia PC Suite… STANDBY MODE please… I am sure I frustrated myself unintentionally by not paying attention to this detail. 
    Right, NOW you click on OK (the green check mark) … assuming everything else was done properly, after about 10 seconds, the model no. of your phone should appear in Nokia PC Suite.  If you get this, you are going to have a blast with this software. 
    So cool – using my PC….. I have since been able to delete off a lot of junk (from inbox, outbox, images etc) and free up valuable memory, amend Contacts info, do a full backup of my phone onto my PC, load in a truncated MP3 file of Doobie Brothers, "China Grove" as my ringtone (...made it myself with a free MP3 editor - 1st 30 seconds – 433Kb… yeah huge… but worth it) etc…  
    Still getting the hang of this software…. The only digital camera I have is the one on my phone, so now that I can take pics and get them into my PC so easily, I am going to have a lot of fun with this software as well as with other aspects of it that I am not aware of yet..  I still have to install some kind of “Modem” drivers from the CD, and there is something about upgrading your phone software….. 
    It has only been three days since I got it to work but, folks..  This Nokia PC Suite is outraaaaaageous.  !!!!!!!! 
    Oh I forgot…. Now you can restart your computer.   
    PS.. Whenever I restart/shutdown my system, I have to go and do the COM1 to COM3 part again in Nokia PC Suite when I turn it back on.  I have not found a way to save the setting.  Will try to attach a pic (yep….  taken with my phone, and downloaded into my PC !!!) of the CA-42 cable and CD that I got. 
    Hope this helps..

  • Aspect ratio problem with consumer camera and Premiere Elements 11

    Hello everyone - I'm Steve. I'm new here. I do still photography on a pro level, digital and analog, but I am an absolute dummy with video...but then, I don't want to do much, just rudimentarily cut a few family videos, upload them, etc.
    However, I can't get Premiere Elements 11 to output my self-shot clips in a correct aspect ratio.
    My camera is a consumer-model Canon Legria FS200. I shoot video in a resolution the camera calls XP. The camera says they are 16:9, the camera monitor shows them as 16:9, and when I use the software (called Pixela Image Mixer) that came with the camera to import the clips to disk, I get mpg files that Windows (7) Explorer says are 720x576 pixel, and that VLC player correctly displays as wide-screen 16:9 without me having to tweak its display settings.
    However, the moment I import them into Premiere Elements, they appear horizontally squeezed, and I can't seem to output them any other way, with or even without editing them in Premiere. 
    I tried to use the recipe given here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/5987538#5987538 , (replacing only NTSC with PAL because I'm in Germany),  namely, setting the project preset set manually for PAL/Hard Disk etc/ Widescreen 48kHz and check force selected program settings. But no matter, Premiere displays the video in horizontally compressed form, with large black bars to the right and to the left.
    On the export side, setting the output to PAL DVD Widescreen and setting the Pixel Aspect Ratio in the output settings to Widescreen does not help, either. Neither can I force VLC player manually to display the correct aspect ratio. BTW, audio is perfect all along.
    This is about as far as I can see myself getting without help. Has anyone any idea?
    Thanks a lot in advance,
         Steve, from Germany

    Steve
    I see that you are now in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum with your problem already solved.
    I did not see any Why for what you encountered, so I thought I would give you my take on this.
    Your Canon FS200 gives video with MPEG2 video compression with a .mod file extension. That .mod file extension can be found in use with some Canon as well as JVC cameras. The .mod file history with Premiere Elements (any version) is problematic. In some instances, the user needs to rename the file extension from .mod to .mpg before it can be imported, but not always. But, the .mod widescreen comes packaged with the aspect ratio dilemma, presenting as 4:3 rather than 16:9. The classical argument is whether Premiere Elements does not recognize a .mod file's 16:9 flag or whether the 16:9 flag got lost.
    There used to be a utility contributed by an user to handle the file extension and/or aspect ratio issues. Now, the general fix is to import the file into Premiere Elements (in your case 11) with Add Media/Files and Folder/Project Assets. And in Project Assets, you right click the file, select Interpret Footage, and go to the Pixel Aspect Ratio section of the Interpret Footage dialog where you
    (a) dot the Conform To:
    and
    (a) set the Contorm To: field to (in your case) D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.4587)
    Once you are in the program and have the file on the Timeline, if any black edges, you can click the monitor to bring up the image's bounding box. Then drag on a bounding box handle to scale the image just to the point where the black edges are gone.
    If you ever need the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum, maybe bookmark this link
    Premiere Elements
    You should expect to have this issue with any .mod widescreen file that you obtain from your Canon FS200 camera.
    ATR
    Add On...If you are depending on the program to set the correct project preset, you may want to check into what it is setting based on the properties the first file you drag to the Timeline. A manual setting of the project preset may be in order. Please see

  • Problem with Nokia 5200 and Flash Lite themes...

    My problem is pretty simple to ask, but maybe not to easy to answer...
    I downloaded many Flash Lite themes for my Nokia 5200, and my problem is that the animated icons for the grid (that are SWF files) don't show/animate.
    Is it supposed to be like that?
    The firmware is v5.53

    Oh, I forgot this...
    In Carbide.ui, the icons DO animate as they should.

    also try change "WLAN security Mode" from WPA to 802.1x
    I think Nokia referrs to WPA as WPA-PSK, but when you say TKIP then it also could be 802.1x as TKIP is the encryption used.
    So infact your wireless domain might be a 802.1x/EAP-PEAP/MS-CHAPv2 network.Message Edited by mbil on 30-Apr-200702:58 PM

  • I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover.  The attachment seems to be depolarized and it moves around causing the device to toggle and flash like its coming on or shorting.  Anyone having problems?

    I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover.  The attachment seems to be depolarized, trys to connect using the back (curved) edge of the magnetized bracket.  When I try to attach it, it moves around causing the device to toggle in a way that looks like the camera flash.  Anyone having problems? Help.

    Update. My carrier says the antenna of my iPhone 4s is not so good as the one in the iPhone 3G. They can't solve the problem. Their signal is too weak for the 4s at places I spend most of my time. Not the answer I expected, but I'm free to choose an other carrier. Hope this will help.
    This was not the correct answer, I accidentially clicked the button..

    13.

    1.
    2. Their different teams. As I said, this is not a big issue unless more people send emails to Nokia asking for it, and no, as far as I can see, only a minority cares for this issue. Nokia will not spend to develop something in an OS that only a few people care about.
    5. Its an OS design. Either live with it or buy a new phone.
    7. It seems you do not understand what "country dependent" means. It depends upon your country's rules and regulations if this is available, and if the majority of the countries in the world are making laws for the prohibition of silent cameras, Nokia cannot do anything about it. If they break this law, then that country will not allow Nokia phones to be sold in that country, which is bad for Nokia. Personally I dont understand why people want to remove shutter sound.
    9. The setting to get 16:9 ratio is yes, software, but you also have to consider the sensor hardware. The sensor hardware is able to receive light in the same ratio as the pictures, and not in 16:9 ratio. Hardware cannot be adjusted. You yourself said you work with an SLR camera, and if you look through the viewfinder, you see that the camera lens sees the view in a "square" ratio as well like the phone. Creating software to render  a picture in 16:9 ratio is just simply creating software that cuts off the reception of light in the top and bottom part of the picture so as to create a 16:9 effect. Meaning the camera is not utilizing the full 3.2 megapixels of the phone, and the result is just the same as getting the picture you took and editing it on your PC to show a 16:9 ratio.

  • Latest Nokia Camera and Nokia Camera Beta won't ta...

    Did anybody noticed that the latest Nokia Camera and its beta version won't tag photos taken using smart sequence if it was not reviewed on the spot?
    The previous Nokia Camera before the last update was ok. I'm not sure if this could be due to the latest Nokia Storyteller that messed up existing stories. I already uninstalled Nokia Storyteller but still face the same issue.

    Nokia Storyteller Beta and Nokia Camera were both updated in the last couple of days, so it might pay to check out these and see if they resolve your issues.

  • Problems with Customer Service AND unexplained charges!

    I've been with Verizon for I-don't-know-how-many years, and through the years you are bound to have a few problems here and there but some of the problems are just ridiculous! It's also the same reocurring problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was with Alltel first, before it was bought out by Verizon. The years I was with Alltel, I didn't have near as many problems. It seems EVERY time I do the smallest change or something to my phone or bill, I get a ridiculous amount of charges that I was NOT aware of, nor told about... EVEN IF I ask "So this isn't going to change my bill, or there will not be any unexpected/unexplained charges that I don't know about?"... BUT not matter how many times I ask... and NO matter how many times I am told "no"... there always is. For example.... last year, I updated and signed a new 2 year contract and purchased the first Driod. Before, my 30 day warranty was up, I was having problems with my Driod, and decided to send it in and get a new one. Before I did this.. I called customer service to make sure there would be no interuption in my bill, and there wouldn't be any unexpect charges, and there would be no difference in anything. I was told there was not, and once I recieved my new phone, just send it in and nothing would be changed. Of course, when I get my bill.. I see I was charged $500 for the new phone. It was explained to me that my credit card was reimbursed (which I never check that card, because I never used it expect to purchase the phone) and that I was recharged for the new phone, since it was a new phone. So I had to fork out the $500 (on top of my bill) and then wait months to get the $100 rebate card. Months after that, I "assumed liablity of my line" because I was on a plan with my family. I decided to have my own line, so I "assumed liability." I was not told that when I did that, I "renewed" my contract date. So I just added 6 more months to my 2 year contract. Was NOT told about that! Then again...... I was recently having problems with my Driod (the screen went black and would not come back on.) I had to turn on an OLD motorola razor, so I would not be without a phone for two days while I was waiting on my phone to come in. As soon as my phone came in, I had my Droid turned back on. I recieved my bill recently, and my bill was $200 over what it normally should be.... so I called in... apparently, when I had my phone replaced, they dropped off my data package and when I recieved my replacement driod, they never put it back on. So I was being charged for alllll my data usage... again I was NOT told about this. I wasn't even aware that they had dropped off my data package, and when/where did they get the authority to do that??? These are just a FEW of the problems that I have had.................................
    Does anyone have these reoccuring problems!?

    I understand that my bill can be viewed online, and I do view it fairly regularly, so if there are any unexplained charges, I can call Verizon asap. The problem does not come from me not understanding my bill, but from customer service. I have been with Verizon for a very long time, and it is a continuing problem. Where did Verizon get the 'OK' to drop my data package off my plan? Who authorized that?
    After calling Verizon and trying to find out the problem, the gentleman told me that when I activated on old phone while I was waiting on my new Droid to arrive, my data package was dropped off and I "should" have been told about that. When I reactiviated my new Droid, I "should" have called and had them restart my data package. I was not aware that when you activate an old phone that data plan is taken off your plan. In all my years of having cell phones, I never make two years with one phone. I have always, at one point, had to turn on an old phone, and my data package has NEVER changed. Why would I have my data package dropped and why would I have to call Verizon to have it restarted. I would never know to do that unless I was TOLD that my data packaged HAD to be re-added when I recieved my new phone, but I was never told of that.
    All of that is beside the point, the point is, Verizon was never given the authorization to change my plan. Never. My bill was taken care of and readjusted, and I am thankful for that. It does not change the fact it is always a hassle with Verizon Customer Service and I am always the one having to PROVE that I am not at fault, or that I was NEVER told of certian things. EVERY TIME I HAVE CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE, I AM TOLD "I'M SORRY, THEY SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU THAT."
    "they should" does not help my bill with the extra armount of charges.

    Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
    but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
    allow me to explain
    lets say I import 100 images
    i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
    as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
    i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
    for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
    one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
    to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
    how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
    i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
    but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
    now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
    any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
    there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
    second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
    thanks for the help

    sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
    i've disabled it now
    thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
    its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
    but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
    because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
    so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
    is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
    its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
    what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.
