I doubt you can make it take a picture with a hardware button. Yes, you can start the camera, but not actually take the shot.

that will activate the camera.
taking pictures, I am not sure but I hope there is something simular to Auto Hot Key.
if there is , then its going to be easy

I aint sure if this can help..but in case go to menu > system > personal > buttons and change it from there
the Standy button isn't a normal hardkey.
therefore it can't be reassigned i think.

yep u r right
I'd suggest you assign the Camera button as "ok" that way the camera won't launch if you hit it by mistake. It just means you'll have to use an on-screen shortcut to start the camera. Once the camera is open, the button will function as normal.

Okay... Thanks for the tip! Think i'll go that way... Still better than always shutting down the cam...
as we fix it?
My hardkey is change!
the error is the conection, the keyboard and the motherboard of phone
My HTC work!!!
I have changed camera button by the same reason. I changed this button configuration in Start>Configuration>Buttons and I assigned <Today> to Button1 (camera button) After that i put camera link in Start Menu Start>Configuration>Menus just check camera, maybe you shuld uncheck any other one before check it.
My WM is in spanish so sorry if locations are not exactly or have a different/similar name.

Can we make the camera app focus automatically?

Hey guys,
as I watched the presentation of the iPhone 3GS, I noticed that the HD camera only focuses when the capture button is pressed, which leads to a pretty long delay in taking the picture.
The iPhone 3GS focuses automatically and immediately takes the picture when the capture is pressed.
Can we somehow modify the HD camera to focus before we press the capture button and then immediately take the picture when the button is pressed? Any ideas?
.
uuh no,
just press the shoot button
nice answer but useless...
Just to put my two bits in, I agree with maati that focus before pressing the capture button would be a huge improvement.

That's not the only way.
You can also just tap the screen if you have touch focus set to "on".
But - granted - it is still not "auto focus".
The camera does auto focus when you first turn it on. It would be nice if it could keep that afterwards too.
Yes, even if you tap the screen to focus, the camera needs to focus again when you press the captue button. I'd like it to take the picture instantly.
I think you are talking about focus lock, so the camera just has to capture image when the shoot button is pressed as it has alrady focused. This would be a huge improvement.

volume keys as camera laucher

hi all is it possible to make the camera boot and take pictures with the volume up hardware button, i find my self not needing the volume keys so this would make taking pictures easier for me
thanks all
You can even assign different functions to the volume keys, e.g. single press for volume up, long press for camera, with AEButton Plus.
ok will give this go does this app allow taking pictures while in the app? or just bootup app
If you assign the 'enter key' function to a volume key as well, you can also take pictures.
E.g. long press to launch camera, sinlge press for taking the picture (if you don't need the volume up function) OR long press for camera, double press for volume up and single press for taking the picture OR any other configuration you like

ok im not quiet understanding matey please bare with me, ive assigned the long press fuction on the volume up button to booting the camera app,
and then selected the single tap on the volume up button and set it to "press enter" this did not allow me to take a picture, did u mean something else?
thankyou
edit the press enter function i assigned to the volume key works in say file explorer by opening and installing cabs e.c.t
Hm, I have not tested it on the HD2, but it worked on the HD like that.

does the hd have a ok/enter button in which it take pictures as the hd2 doesn't its all screen based
is this correct
No, the HD has no dedicated button as well. It's strange that pressing enter on the HD works but not on the HD2. Are you sure that it doesn't work on the HD2?

[Q] On CM7 camera button can't take a picture?

So I have clean installed CM 7.0.3 on the MY Touch 4G and tried to use the default camera app and when I run it and then press the hardware camera button the focus square comes up and goes green but when I release the button it doesn't actually take a picture? Any idea how to fix this? The soft button on screen works.
umm... try pushing the camera button down all the way maybe?
Ahh damn, stupid of me. Thanks!

[Q] Use power button as camera shutter?

Yesterday I went into a pool and tried to take pictures from my S5, but it was very difficult to activate the shutter under the water.
Does anyone know if there is a MOD to use the power button as the camera shutter or have any other ideas of how to take photos under water?
Thanks

In the settings of the camera you can set the volume keys to take a pic or rec video or zoom.
The default is take pic.
So just use the volume keys. works great

I own a Galaxy Music, and it would be great to use its music button as camera shutter too... is there any post o help you can give me???... thanks
It would be best if some dev can mod the stock s5 camera.apk so that when you press the power button it would take a picture instead of locking the device. No one locks their phone while they're in the camera app, because they're gonna take pics so the power button is the perfect button for such a mod Please someone make this mod!
