How to use camera on cm11 (noob friendly) - 7" Kindle Fire HD General

People have been posting in the cm11 forum's that the camera won't show up,so let me show you how to fix that.
There are two ways you can do this.
1st method,
As you can see there is no camera shortcut
So go into settings and click lock screen, then there will
Be a option called camera shortcut click it, now you can launch camera from your lock screen.
2nd method.
As you can see there is no camera icon,so go to settings and click interface, now click Quick settings panel.
Underneath Static tiles is tiles and layout,press this.
Now there are a bunch of squares, press the plus,now select camera. Now when you want to use the camera just swipe down on the left and press camera and you will see a little square that can move,now press it and you can take a picture.
And that's how you use camera!
Give thanks if I helped you

Stock Android = No Popup Menu?

Howdy,
This may be a dumb question but is there no contextual menu in stock Android? I know that many apps have the icon that is three vertical dots but on my Note 2 I can bring up a menu in any app by pressing the the menu nav button. I know that's a Samsung button, but is that entire pop up menu feature not in stock? I am sort of lost without it. For example, I can't find My Apps on the Play Store. On my Note 2 its listed in the pop up menu. On my Nexus 7.... I have no idea. I feel like I've looked everywhere. The three dot menu doesn't list it.
Thanks

OK I found my apps (tap little download icon) but still wondering in general. That pop up menu is really handy.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The three dots will come up in the bottom right corner when an older app still needs it. Overflow actions are being moved to the actionbar for devices without a hardware menu button. I recommend getting used to apps having the button on the action bar. It makes it much easier to know when there are available overflow options.

The problem with the menu button is that it was always there, whether it did anything or not. It was impossible to know if you could bring up a menu without trying it on each screen.
Exactly. That's why I am glad google is phasing it out.

Custom ROMs, you can make a permanent menu button. Mostly goes unused though.

OK, thanks guys. I will learn to live without it.

Um.. First off, on tablet sized devices the Play store has a dedicated Download/My Apps button at the top. Second, my Nexus 7 (OG) on 4.3 has the overflow button in the top-right corner.. Yours does not??

[Q] How to disable Lock screen swipe left to Camera shortcut

After turning on the phone, on the lock screen (doesn't matter which type, swipe, pin, pattern) if I swipe from right to left, the camera is activated. Is there a way to disable this function? I just got the phone for 2 days, and I've accidentally *while the phone is still inside of my jeans pocket* activated the camera this way countless times already. Please help.
thanks

No you don't need this app
Go on a new lockscreen page to add a widget and simply uncheck the camera in the first line of the widget list.

Thanks x 100

You can turn off hard keys. (sm-p600 mk1)

Sorry if this is old news but I seen a few people asking if you could disable these especially over at the clean Rom thread cause the developer included soft keys in the rom. Anyways again I'm sorry if this is old news but you go to accessibility/access control. It then walks you through a series of steps like if you want certain parts of the screen to not be affected by touch and so on. I thought this was pretty sweet. Not sure if it's for all models and firmware but worth a shot!

It's all the way at the very bottom of Accessibility. It is listed under Recognition. Turn it on. Then hold down the home button and and volume down to enter the wizard.
It should be helpful for when I do note taking at a meeting so I don't have to worry about touching the physical buttons. But for Button Savior Pro it disables the Home, Menu and Back so it's not something I can have on all the time. Plus the notification drawer cannot be interacted with anymore while this mode is on.

I can open the drawer just fine. You just can't touch any of the notifications after you open the drawer.

Advance options in Camera menu.

A lot of people have been complaining about stock camera on Moto G. They complain of not having options to touch to focus, control picture size and many other things.
I decided to look at that and come it with a solution. I an not a Dev so I couldn't. But while clicking pics one day, I found advance option in stock camera in moto g to have these features.
To go to advance option on stock camera of moto g, first open the camera app then hold your phone horizontally. Now open settings by dragging your finger from left to right, when settings would open you can see a bug on the bottom on the right side of the screen. Click on this bug, and voila you'd be in advance configuration of the camera app. From here, you'll be able to change the size of your pics, can add face detection in front cam, touch to focus and many others.
Guys, enjoy.
I can't see the bug on the bottom right of the screen. What stock cam version is this tried on?

No go, seems that is a debug mode for the camera, the question is how did you enable it?

There must be a combination of things to endable it...maybe some one can look in te code of the camera app? and find the hidden key combination of things?
just an idea
Many people are not getting the bug so I, myself tried to find it the cause. The results that came out if my outcome is ; if you're on a custom ROM then and then only you can see the bug icon.
From those on the stock, you'll have to wait until I or someone other port the libs of camera and required files to stock ROM to enable that feature.
why i cant see the bug.. seems like a bug to camera or application or the system
Guys, camera libs to Stock ROM seems to be impossible for me as whenever I do that, the stock ROM fails to boot up.
The only way you can get that is try custom took like C ROM or CM11. It is working on both of them, I don't know about others. Try it on other rooms too and see if it works.

LG G3 Has A Screen Mode

So I'm looking in the hidden menu with the Quick Shortcut Maker app and searched screen mode and what do you know its there. Standard, Vivid, and Natural. I cant tell the difference when switching but its there. Just sharing info...:good:
Cant find this mode on secret menu..
Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Free mobile app
Hmm maybe this has something to do with the difference in whites between screens (blue tint vs yellow tint)

It's not in the secret menu. You have to go through the app mentioned in the first post. At least that's how I found it. Hope this helps.

As soon as you open the app it says input keyword. Type screen mode and the tap done. Settings pops up tap it and then you will see settings Screen Mode tap it then tap on Try and it pops up.
I've tried changing it but I don't seem to see a difference. Although it could be me since I'm not very into detail. Can anyone tell which is the best setting?
It's probably a feature that wasn't finished and left in incomplete. That's probably why there isn't a difference and it's hidden. They have that accessibility thing for color that they might have gone with instead.

I search for this with shortcut app and there is no "screen mode" on hidden menu or any other app in my phone.if I search for screen and mode there are options but not this one.
Which version and model are you running?
Mine is V10j for D855.
It is present in the Verizon 985 version, but does not seem to do anything.

It's hidden in the settings when you search for screen mode under the activities. Press the down arrow and a list will show, find the screen mode. Mine is V10i, SEA version. From what I see, they're all the same.
If you use an alternative launcher as in Nova you can get to the ScreenMode without installing any other app.
Simply press & hold on Home Screen, select Shortcuts, then from the list select Activities and scroll down to Settings (on my G3 it says there are 364 different settings to choose). Finally scroll through the list until you get to ScreenMode, tap on it and it will create a shortcut icon on your Home screen.
Tap on the icon and it launches ScreenMode.
Note: I didn't notice any differences with the choices available.
Same here no difference i am on v10H.
Nice find man. But I don't notice anything?
10j no difference.
My guess would be that they would add it with an update in the future.
Would actually be cool if you can have the option to make things more vibrant (not to say i'm not satisfied with the screen, but sometimes change can be nice)

I sure hope so. I hope it's not the opposite, where they disabled it, but forgot to remove the code. I'd like a more vivid screen as well. I played with the color options in accessibility, but the results are... Ehh....
