Thanks to the people providing me with the 10282EDC.txt file from their phones, I have been able to Mod the files for each phone to work with it's Specific Megapixel Quality and Settings, so that it won't crash or stop the camera from working by using an incorrect one, and so it will not mess up the quality.

Read Before You Do Anything:
WARNING: Using the wrong file may cause your Camera to not Open, Mess up the Quality and/or force you to Hard Reset your phone.
1] No, The file doesn't have to exist in the Zrive for this to work, on ANY phone - And you also can NOT write to the Zrive.
2] Yes, this will increase the File Size of your Photos, some of mine range from 600KB to around 2MB, but the quality is worth it.
3] Yes, You can remove this Mod by simply deleting the File where you pasted it.
4] No, the size of the Picture doesn't matter. You may find that taking a picture of distant scenery ends up being of Lower File Size, this does not mean the quality is any worse; you will see a difference depending on the Colors in the Photo, Close Up Detail or the amount of things happening in the photo.
5] You will see the Quality this Mod provides when you Zoom into your photos AFTER taking them.
6] Try looking at your Photos on your PC/Mac, you can see the difference better this way.
7] No, you do not need the C2Z Patch for this to work.
Hacking:
I recommend using this method to hack, it costs a small fee;
http://helloox2.com/. If you seek a free way to Hack your phone, look on Symbian Freak else where - this topic is not to help hacking phones.
Instructions:
Phone Must Be Hacked
1] Download the Corosponding file for your phone to your PC/Mac/Phone.
2] Turn off Caps via any method (Open4All Patch/RomPatcher's Disable Caps/Caps Off etc).
3] Open X-Plore or Y-Browser (Or any File Manager you prefer)
4] Copy/Move 10282EDC.txt
5] Go to C:/Private and paste 10282EDC.txt into Folder 10202be9.
6] Exit X-Plore/Y-Browser (Or Whatever you are Using)
7] Reboot Phone (or Switch off then on)
8] Check C:/Private/10202be9 to see if 10282EDC.txt is still there.
Troubleshooting:
File Keeps Deleting Itself When I Reboot, How Can I Fix This?
Method 1] If the file keeps deleting itself, using X-Plore, mark it as Read-Only and System File (Just highlight the file, press Menu, go fo File then Attributes and you can change the settings)
Method 2] If you are still finding that the file is Deleting itself after you reboot, switch caps on before you reboot, otherwise it gets deleted.
I See No Difference?
1] If you are using the N82 or the N96, you will see little difference because of the default settings for the camera are already quite High.
On the N96, you are only gaining a 5% Improvement in Quality.
People have reported difference in quality with the N82, and I have also, firsthand, seen the difference in quality.
2] You will see the Quality this Mod provides when you Zoom into your photos After taking them
Testing the Mod / Do & Don't:
All being well, Open your Camera and try out some of the following;
1] Don't take a silly fast uncared for picture of something like a Desk or something you are immediatly near to test this, you will obviously get a bad photo.
2] Never zoom into objects WHILE taking a photo, it ruins the quality severly, even using this mod.
3] Try taking a Picture of a Flower in Close up Mode a few times.
4] Take a few Pictures of something scenic with loads of colors in the Distance or near by.
5] Make sure the place you are at is well lit - Outside preferably.
6] Try and keep your hand as Steady as Possible.
7] You will notace the Quality this Mod provides when you Zoom into your photos AFTER taking them.
8] Try looking at your Photos on your PC/Mac, you can see the difference better this way.
*Note* Remember the File Size does not matter, but you will see a difference depending on the Colors in the Photo, Close Up Detail or the amount of things happening in a photo.
Test Shots:
Open the picture up to mazimum size, you will see the difference
