Don't know if this means anything for the camera on triumph but edowar at xda posted that" freexeperia teams solved camera issues"


Alpha2 AOSP ICS Rom for Huawei x6 and other FB0 devices - Page 27 - xda-developers

Unless the "fix" is something different than what's currently on the freexperia github, it won't help us. Their "fix" is what I have already tried a while ago and as you can, it didn't work. Basically, more will be needed in addition to the previous commits that I did for the camera.

I seen someone mention the fuzzy icons a few pages back. but I never noticed it. but then again i did take of the factory installed screen protector...not sure if that effected it. maybe it magnify a little...just a thought cause i never noticed...or cant see good

Using Apex or Nova launcher fixed the icon issue for me.

I'm using Nova launcher as well, but I wasn't talking about the home screen icons. I'm referring to the battery indicator, signal meter... pretty much everything that gets thrown up onto the notification bar (except for the clock) seems fuzzy. Also, the text message send button... a lot the icons except for the ones on the home screen, basically.

Should've been more clear, my apologies. Maybe it's just me, too.

naw ur right i did notice that. thought it was normal lol
 
I agree with death2twitter. The Wifi, signal bars and battery icons in the status bar do seem a little blurry. Unless someone changed them Google must have made them that way being thats from the source. Honestly to me they could be a little more crisp. Would look better.

I hope not...

Anyway, I fired off an email to Motorola asking, in the most well written speech-like way I could muster, for them to un-close the source code for those drivers the devs don't have access to. Yeah, I realize that's about as likely to work as a Jello-powered helicopter, but I felt like I had to try to help somehow. I mean, I don't have any clue how to even begin to do what the actual devs are doing so... yeah.

Oh, ok. It can be altered, but it takes some time. It'd have to be set in the build, I think, to hdpi icons rather than mdpi icons. That's why they are fuzzy. Have you noticed the progress indicator (rotating spiral) is fuzzy too? It also is set to mdpi for some reason. It may be a default for the build, I'm not sure how to change it.

Maybe they were optimized for the Nexus' 720p screen and they're being downscaled incorrectly?

That will probably go over like a fart in an elevator, and they will respond with the generic "go f-yourself" nice little response.

I have noticed that. In fact, every non homescreen icon (power control widget, settings button in notification tray, the icons in the settings menu, etc etc) seems at least a little fuzzy. The notification bar ones are just more noticeable because they're tiny.

That's probably it, the mdpi thing. All the apps that don't "come with" the rom, like Google+, seem to be using clear icons.

Interesting observations. I'll put some defines into the build and see if it looks better in the next build I put up.

Indeed. I think the ROM is defaulting to mdpi for the installed system. All the others -- installed apps, are showing up hdpi. It's weird, but more than likely a fix that needs to be done at the build level. I'm not sure what needs to be edited. There must be some identifier that needs to be told to "show" the hdpi icons.

I think I found the cause of the "fuzzy" icons. We need this in our device_triumph.mk:
Code: 
# Use high-density artwork where available
PRODUCT_AAPT_CONFIG := normal hdpi
PRODUCT_AAPT_PREF_CONFIG := hdpi

I haven't done a build to test this yet, but I'm pretty confident this is the answer.

By all means Nate, I'll be your huckleberry, pop up a build and I'll be glad to test it for you.
 
No More Fuzzy Icons!

  • Compiled from Mantera's latest source
  • Includes fixed GPS
  • Includes fixed hapatics
  • Working Home key
  • Fixed HDPI icons
  • Added Facebook Sync hack
I'm removing the download link for now. This thread is for Mantera's build so adding mine just confuses things. Mantera should be putting up a new build soon which includes everything mine has except facebook sync. I'm looking into making the facebook sync hack into a flashable zip you can apply to Mantera's build, that way we don't need to have multiple builds floating around.

If you really want this build, PM me and I'll send you a download link.
