iPod Touch 4g 1280x720 Photos Tweak!

[eddiewattz]

After speculating and a few hours of goofing around, I finally figured out how to get those pixels that was stolen from us for no apparent reason. Thanks Apple for giving us yet another reason to jailbreak!

Note: If using windows, I recommend using "plist Editor for Windows". Also, if your transfering the file to windows to edit it, DON'T use iFunbox to transfer, as it actually modifies the Plist file. Try using iFile or other methods.

Note 2: It also seems that this will affect ONLY the native camera app, does not appear to work in ClearCam app.

Look out for it on cydia " iPod Touch 4g 1280x720 Photos" & "iPod Touch 4g 1280x720 and HDR Photos"

MediaFire download
1280x & HDR
1280x without HDR


Manual instructions below


Go to

SystemLibraryPrivateFrameworksCelestrial.frame workN81AVCapture.plist

There area you are looking for is

<key>AVCaptureMode_PhotoCapture</key>

you will notice

<string>Back Facing 1MP Photo</string>

beneath this is what needs to be edited
go to line 947 which says

<key>Width</key>
<integer>960</integer>
</dict>

and change it to 1280 like this

<key>Width</key>
<integer>1280</integer>
</dict>

Now scroll down about 23 lines until you see

<key>Sensor</key>
<dict>

A few lines beneath that youll agian see

<key>Width</key>
<integer>960</integer>
</dict>

change it to look like this

<key>Width</key>
<integer>1280</integer>
</dict>

Lastly, go back upwards to line 962 (964 if you applied the HDR tweak manually) and where it says

<key>Preview</key>
<dict>
<key>Height</key>
<integer>640</integer>

just change 640 to 540 and your finished, just save and reboot.




When your taking a picture you can double tap the screen, the preview screen will zoom out so you can see the whole picture, just like in Movie mode

I suggest keeping a copy of the original just incase you'd ever want to go back.
