Xperia Pro/Neo/V/L :: Image File Naming In Camera?
May 8, 2012
SE Xperia Neo V Camera sets file name with a prefix and ordered number. The problem is that after I move photos from Neo to a PC, the numbering next photos does not continue, and start anew. I this way I lost a few photos while uploading files to PC. This name method is correct or not? Before SE Xperia I had Nokia smartphone, so it was add in the file name, except for the odered number, the date + time with seconds.
My old phone used to save picture/videos with full dates (eg. "IMG_20120513_215914"), while my new one (the HTC One) saves them with just sequential numbering (eg. "IMAG0004").
Is there any way to change this? I much preferred knowing when my pictures were taken.
is there any way of selecting the file type that camera image files and video files are saved as? I know that the SGS2 supports various file formats, but I can't find anywhere that actually lets you select the format type. I've checked through the manual, Googled and searched various forums without luck.
Ive upgraded from z1 to z5, but z5 has started numbering pictures from 1 again. cant backup images to onedrive because they over-right my old pictures. Is there any way to change the counter value for the picture naming?
a couple months ago i finally decided i needed to get a new phone becase it seemed the camera on my old w810i was starting to out - it wouldnt focus very well and the camera button wouldn't snap a picture too reliably anymore. I figured it was probably because i had taken thousands and thousands of images over the time i had the phone since 2006 - i think the last image i took with the 810i was named something like 'dsc06912'. I'm in the US and att is my provider, so i 'upgraded' to an iphone4 but returned it after a couple of weeks primarily because i learned i really like a dedicated camera button. So I switched to the SE Vivaz with no iphone restock fee - nice. I really liked the vivaz hardware size and camera but that symbian os just didn't cut it, especially after using the iphone and the wifi internet experience was pathetic...so after i couple more weeks turned the vivaz in for this xperia x10 - with a restock fee tho.
one of the things thats bugging me about this x10 is that the image filenames keep getting reset each time i download and erase the image files from the phone microsd memory card. in the w810i, even when i did this the filenames still incremented correctly when i took more pictures, thus I new that 'dsc06912' was the 6,912 picture i had taken. with this x10, it starts over at 'dsc_0001' everytime i start taking pictures after downloading the previous batch of images to my computer. (Even the Vivaz continued to increment correctly after i downloaded the images - i guess thats one good thing the nokia folks got right since i believe the w810i used symbian like the vivaz.)i have looked and looked through all the places i can in the x10 android 1.6 os and can find no where to make the filenumbering not re-set.
I have a us unlocked version of the d6603 and noticed after a super clean install....(factory reset, then installed updated software .232) the camera seems to overall have much more noise in the image.... Where as photos before the update were much cleaner and had much less noise... Right now it's almost like it has artificial film grain....
The only thing I haven't tried is the factory reset that you do when your battery is above 80 percent..
I have used Sony Ericsson phones for years and all my previous phones have had a feature on the camera whereby you could zoom in on a photograph you've taken, and then save the zoomed/close-up image as a seperate photograph.
If this feature exists on the Mini Pro, I certainly can't find it. I took a photo with the camera of something quite far away. The camera will let me zoom in on the bit of the image I want to see, and will allow me to view it, but I want to save the zoomed image. The far-away image is useless to me.
Can't seem to find it after the update and other users have also reported the same. Why was it removed? Â Or does this mean that there's no need since by default, the Z5 already has a hardware stabilization mechanism (closed-loop actuator) in place?
Just like most on the forums around the net, having serious issues with BB encrytption of jpg's. BB stopped working and transfered all 400 pictures off of it o my Mac. I could not view the .jpg.rem images on my Mac, however I figured I would let it lie based on most of the posts. Got back my BB and transfered the images back onto the BB and all I see are image files with hourglasses? Tried turning off and on encryption, tried renaming and transfering files, emailing them, switching folders and just about every possible combination...to the point where I see that the "damaged or corrupted" error.
Yesterday i took a few pictures and wanted to upload it onto my Pc. It doesnot come up in my Images folder. The last folder that came up was 2011 folder and my 2012 folders for january and february isnot there. if i go to my galery, the images are there but not there when connected to the pc. Is there something wrong with any setting on my phone?
I have some basic quetion about the Xperia X8 handling.How do i see files on SD card from mobile? and how do i zoom (in/out) while taking photos?I dont find any options for this in User guide. I want to do it from Mobile not by connecting it to PC.
I have used Mp3tag v2.54 to embed an cover image to my Mp3 files I have on my computer.That worked great because when I play an Mp3 file on the computer, with for an example VLC player, I can see the cover image of the Mp3 file.Now, when I use Windows Phone - App Preview 2 and sync the Mp3 files to my Nokia Lumia 920 the files are transferred and everything works good except for the image that won't show up?

My z2 has a camera problem. initially worked fine , then stopped taking photos - they show as broken files and can't be opened. I factory reset the phone and the camera worked for one day. it then stopped taking photos - when you take a pic, it shows the little orange circle going round and round , but then doesn't store the photo. Yesterday I cleared the cache and this appeared to make it work. The camera now takes photos, but I cannot message or bluetooth them - just says could not add item. I tried to transfer them to my computer , via usb and they all show as broken files , but with the .jpg extension , so not the lost.dir problem. Any better camera to download thru playstore that works well ...
I would just like to report that the Xperia mini pro (and possibly also Xperia mini) camera does not keep track of picture number in file names properly. It will keep track of the number as long as the user does not delete any pictures, but as soon the user deletes one/more/all pictures taken with the phone's camera, the camera system will "fill the numbering gaps" when new pictures are taken, instead of just continuing from the number of the last picture taken.
I ran in kind of problem...I have iPhone 3gs, that needs blackra1n every time i turn it on. Problem began few days ago, when it got stuck, so i had to reset it, and when i tryed to blackra1n it, it got stuck...I tryed few more times and than it worked.
That happened also next day, and i had to do blackra1n like 20 times.Now i this does not work anymore and it gets stuck everytime.Problem is because i have on cydia only files for 3.1.3 so i cannot restore it to 3.1.2 as i normaly did.I have sbsettings and SSH, but i think i turned it off :/I have 05.11.7 modem firmware and 6.4 bootloader.
Camera will not capture images. Purely states 'unable to capture image'. Video camera comes up with coloured lines, no image. Reasonably new handset, have tried rebooting and clearing down all apps.
Very disappointed in the results I've gotten in the first month of using this camera. Even with flash activated in very decent indoor light, the shutter speed seems to default to 1/20 second. Since it's virtually impossible to hold any camera - much less an iPhone - perfectly still at that slow of a speed, the shots are predictably blurry and most are simply unusable. (BTW, none of the shots I'm describing are zoomed and hdr is off.)
I do not need to store them permanently on the phone by would prefer to store them in iCloud fro viewing later on iPhone5, iPad Air, or Mac Book Pro as needed.
I find I am hitting a storage limit on the iPhone5 and need to resolve this without permanently losing images by deleting them.
When ever I start my camera it locks on the first image when the camera app starts. So, moving around or adjusting to the exact picture you want is impossible, because the screen is frozen with that original image.
Recently I've been taking pictures with my 1520 camera and noticed the image was shaking. At first I thought I was shaking so I put it in a tripod and it was doing the same thing. I'm running dev pre 8.1.
I always capture raw (rather than jpeg) images with my digital camera. Post processing raw files in Lightroom gives me greater exposure latitude and dynamic range. This is the one thing I miss from my LG G3. I'd love to see Samsung include this capability in a firmware update.
Camera and vid recorder have stopped working. Camera message is could not capture image. Lots of space on card. Worked perfectly almost 2 yrs to now. Still able to see pics and videos and all menus appear functional.
I have a photo in my camera roll on my phone that I believe is corrupted. I received it through the "Bump" app. After receiving the photo and adding it to my camera roll, when I go into that specific conversation in "Bump" the app crashes.
When I open my camera to take a photo, it shows everything fine, snaps a photo, and then crashes without saving. When I open my photos, I can go into every album except my camera roll, when I click on my camera roll it crashes.
I have Windows Vista and I can copy all the photos using the windows import photos, and when I click the "delete all after import" button, it will start to delete them, until it gets to that photo than stops.. And does not delete any photos out of my camera roll.
So I need a way to delete ALL of the photos out of my camera roll, without doing it manually, as that is clearly not a possibility. And a way to do it using Windows Vista.
In the camera roll, you can go to location and it will show where you've been based on the pictures you've taken. Obviously, if you remove the pictures these locations disappear. If I remove them, can I later sync them back to my phone and have the location data show up again? If so, how? If not, is there any other way for me to find similar data on my phone without the photos? Like it shows where I've been based off of cellular location or something? It might sound strange but I'd like to have a visual representation (on map view, as it is in camera roll) of where I've been, but I simply don't have the room to be storing all these photos!
Had a torch 9800 for 18 months now and always been working fine... until today. I went to use the camera and it all seemed to open up fine but instead of seeing what the lens sees the screen was black. The centre focus [ ] was there and I could zoom back and forth just a black screen. When I click for a photo I get a message " Unable to capture the image " I have searched the web and found nothing conclusive. Battery pulls, a full wipe and installation of the o/s have made no difference to it's lack of function.
