Image size problem (Nokia C3, 6th edition series 40)

[mail_rahman]

Hi,
When taking jpeg photos through a j2me application we are seeing the following differences. How do we get smaller image sizes on the 6th Edition series 40?

0.3 MP (640x480):
Nokia 7210: 20 KB
Nokia C3: 100 KB

1.3MP(1280x960):
Nokia 7210: 68KB
Nokia C3: 400 KB

2MP (1600x1200):
Nokia 7210: 110 KB
Nokia C3: 700KB

I've tried using "encoding=jpegxwidth=640xheight=480xquality=10" but it doesn't seem to help.

are those the sizes of the pictures when they have been saved ? or are we talking of in-app memory usage ?

[mail_rahman]

This is the in-app memory size. But the on-disk memory size has similar quantum jumps"

why are you using "x" characters between the width, height and other parameters in the string? It should be "&" character instead

Sorry, It's just typing mistake x instead of &. if i put x, then its must show encoding exception. But my question was totally different.

Folks,
I'm seeing the same issue. I'm using the "encoding=jpeg&width=640&height=480" encoding string, but seeing 5x to 7x larger image size (in app and on disk) in 6th Edition Series 40.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
