I can take a snapshot, I hear the camera shutter sound, but then what? When I try to paste it tells me there's nothing to paste. How do I use this screen shot?
The shots are in your "Gallery" app. when you go to a pic, there's a menu on the upper right with a weird symbol where you can select what to do with it: social hub, picassa, gmail, etc.
Go into your gallery and you'll see the screenshots that you have taken in the album ScreenCapture

Thanks.
So, how do I turn off the snapshot sound?

i haven't updated so i cannot test, but you might try seeing if you can turn off the sound in the camera app, and then see if that works.
Its nice to see that Samsung included "Screen Capture" option in TouchWiz but where they put it, is really annoying sometimes.
I accidentally hit this button (instead of the multitask) many times already.
I looked for a way to turn this off but it looks like there is no option to do so.

I agree. It can be hit by mistake if you're not careful. Wish they had a way to disable it, or set it so that we have to press and hold it for a second or two to activte it.

So you can share your screen when trying to help others get apps or widgets like they have, helps with instructions.
why it can't be turned off I do not know. It's hardly a feature worthy of putting right next to the most frequently used buttons.

Can we even turn the camera shutter sound off? I did on my epic and on my wife smaller tab but I can't seem to see a option on the 10.1.
As for the screen snap shot it has its moment's, my brother and I play games on our android devices and when I beat his score I take a snapshot and sent it to him via text to rub it in.

Hello,
My HD2 doesn't seem to rotate the picture correctly when I take a picture with the camera. As the HD2 has an accelerometer I thought it would automatically rotate the picture depending on how I am holding the phone, but it doesn't. The picture is always as if I was holding the phone vertically (even though the camera interface is horizontal).
Also, there is no way in HTC Album to actually rotate the stupid picture. That's really annoying.
I see nobody complaining about this, so am I the only one having troubles with that?
Also, is there a way to turn off the dial tone in the telephone? It's really loud and annoying.
Thank you

So what actually happens if you hold the phone horizontally and take a picture? Is that picture then immediately shown back to you on it's side??? (so you'd have to go to portrait in order to see it the right way round?)
To turn off the dial tone (which I agree, is just hideous), go to settings tab, menu, all settings, personal, phone and change the keypad value to Off.

Thanks a lot for that one! My OS is in french and the translation for that option is so bad that I didn't understand what it meant.

Glad you got them both sorted. That is weird with the camera. Maybe an issue with your accelorometers? It'd be worth keeping an eye out, but it was probably just a bug.
Hi,
Ever since I got my Desire HD I've not been much of a fan of the camera (really bad quality when it's dark) and standard camera app. It's quite hard to press the button when taking photos and not looking directly on the screen. Do you know how o use one of the physical buttons like the volume ones to take a picture? Or do you have any other advice, e.g. a free phone app where you could at least press anywhere on the screen to focus and shoot?
Thanks a lot!

Hi there. When I take the photos to myself I mostly use the option of face recognition. It works pretty fine and takes foto just after catch your face in a frame and, by the way, you will hear it so that way to have a time to smile so you don't need to press anything! Cheers.
If you buy the pro version of Vignette, there's an option in its' settings to take a picture with the volume keys.
Cheers!
RE
In 2.3 version there is the same option... you can assign shooter to volume keys or to "find" button.

2.3 version of what? And where is the setting?
After reading this thread I downloaded the free vesion of Vignette.
That allows me to use either the volume button or touch anywhere on the screen to take a photo. I have a "flip" case on my DHD and that makes it a little awkward, but touching the screen is simples.
As the free version is classed as a demo I don't know if it will keep let me use these methods or not.

In the camera app press menu -> advanced options. Create shortcut there.
Create shortcut? After going to Camera -> menu-> Advanced just tick which buttons you want to use.

The signature doesn't lie

I've been using the camera a lot lately and have always had a problem with the picture quality, mainly indoor pics. I would hold the phone steady, press the shutter button down halfway, wait for it to focus, then take a picture, but it would still end up a little blurry. Anyone getting problems like this? If not, what settings are you using?
Also, my biggest gripe is the fact that camera settings can't be saved. I would set it up so a friend could take a picture of me, but they somehow always press that search button, which then erases all my camera settings when they go back to the camera app. Did anyone find a hack or some sort of method to keep the settings permanent?
The main reason I have to bring all this up was biggest after taking blurry pictures last night, my friend's just bust out their iphones and with one simple click, they took an almost instantaneous photo with no settings to mess with and no blur at all.
I would also like to add that one of my friends was trying to take photos with his lg quantum as well, and he has the same problem. Is this a problem with windows phone 7 in general?
you could check out shcamera. It's a sideloaded app that was developed for the hd2 crowd, so it doesn't use the camera button, it's all screen rouc, and it doesn't have all the various settings/adjustments, but it saves settings and works pretty good. Tap screen to focus, press onscreen shutter button to take picture.

Same here. I owned an HD7 that didn't have this blurry issue. It seems the Focus camera is super sensitive to movement.
Thanks, at least I know i'm not the only one with this problem. I try to turn on anti shake everytime i use the app, which actually helps a lot. The problem is when I give the phone to someone so they can take the picture. They somehow accidently press the search button and I have to play with the settings again. Kind of a bummer, but I'll try to get used to it.

You might consider having them take more than one picture. I've noticed that when I take another picture after the blurry one, the results tend to be more normal. Maybe have them take a preliminary picture and then a real one. This seems preferable to messing with settings all the time.
Nice. The new NoDo update made the anti-shake option on by default. That will help a lot!

the nodo update didnt default the anti shake on by default on my focus .
The official nodo update for att focus includes a Samsung update that defaults the antishake on, helps lessen accidental capacitive button presses, includes an att hotspot sniffer/whisper that auto logins, and has a provision for transferring att phonebook contacts onto the phone

Me, too. Still have blurry pics, though.
in low light indoors you might want to try the setting photo quality on medium instead of the default hi setting.
Whenever I take a photo it seems to be always orientated in landscape. In the stock gallery app, the photo will automatically view in portrait, but in other photo viewers it'll display it in landscape. Is there any reason as to why it does this and anything I can do about this?
Check the settings in the camera app, you can pick one or the other.
What is that crap at the bottom?

hahaha i know, i know. My friend mentioned that too. I just got around to rooting my device so I now have adblock
two problem though... the only thing i saw in the camera application was save as flipped and this is what happens when i check that option... also, my adblock doesnt seem to be working in this app
So I've had my s8 plus for a couple days and snapchat SUCKS on this phone. I didn't wanna complain but being an app that I use often and most likely ALOT of people use often, I was wondering if there's anyway to either change the aspect ratio on this app (the full screen option for snapchat is unable to be toggled) or make snapchat think it's an s7 edge.
The main issue with snapchat on the s8 plus is that the front camera is super zoomed in, takes f.e to focus, and stories and snaps I receive or view in the stories look horrible like they were shot with a Motorola razr.
Edit: I know you guys will say snapchat needs to make an update but being an android user we should know all too well how that will go.

Not sure if it's a variant thing but the option to disable Snapchat from working in full screen mode is greyed out on my settings. Selecting/long press does nothing.
Snapchat works fine for me. Running Snapchat v10.7.2.0 Beta
Im having the same issue. The camera is so zoomed in and even my Galaxy S6 had better quality in lower lighting. It doesnt make sense. It looks very good if you have white light coming in but if not, its pretty bad. I was surprised. And I cant toggle the full screen option either
This is going to sound dumb, but how do I exit a snap of I don't want to continue watching one? The Samsung buttons don't show up on the bottom and I can press the home button, since it's press sensitive, bit I cab figure out how to exit a snap. I keep getting stuck in a loop of espn and comedy central snaps because I can't exit a current snap. So I've been having to press the Samsung home button, shutdown Snapchat, then reopen.
