HTC 7501 Using the Camera

September 5, 2007

Here is part of a question I received yesterday:

"I like the text and the movies.couple of questions--- my exterior camera button won't start my camera. Must go to start menu and proceed from there..."

I must admit I haven't previously successfully used the camera on the HTC 7501, so I decided to do what everyone hates: RTFMS. I went back to the manual. The camera takes a little bit of learning, but once you're comfortable with it, I believe it is a very useful tool.

I've prepared a video tutorial on the camera which is split in two parts because of the time limitation on YouTube:

Part One:

Sim Card Contacts

Today, I received the following comment:



"What a great blog!I just bought my 7501 on 8-31. Got the "beta version"and downloaded the new Rom. I have replaced a phone, pda, camera and Ipod. My purse is feeling pretty light right now.I like the text and the movies.couple of questions--- my exterior camera button won't start my camera. Must go to start menu and proceed from there. Also, do you know a way to separate my sim card contacts from my outlook contacts. I don't want them to come up together. I have several hundred contacts in Outlook and don't want to scroll down thru all of them to find my brother's phone #.Am loving my new toy. Just need to get used to it. Already used some of your tips. Keep up the good work"



I spent a little time and researched Sim Card Contacts. Below is a small YouTube video on how to make calls using contacts on SIM card. I have a very nifty phone management program, and I'll do a video on that soon.



I must admit, I'll have to research the camera question.
