i thought this might get fixed with froyo but i still cannot save some of the settings in the camera such as contrast/sharpness.
Once you exit the app they are reset to default ......anyone know of a workaround to make them stick?
Is there a reason why they made it so the settings do not stick? it means everytime i opne the app i have to first adjust the settings before taking a picture.
I saw this article for the Note 2:
http://galaxy-note2.wonderhowto.com...ck-screen-your-samsung-galaxy-note-2-0147934/
The article indicated that the device had to be rooted.
I was just wondering was there something kind of stock setting I was over looking?
Also, I prefer to take pictures in HDR but the camera keeps resetting the mode to Auto. Does anyone know if there is a way to change the default mode?
Thanks a bunch!
Hello Guys
Is there actually any way to save my manual camera settings?
I want my ISO always to be at 100, my exposure at -0.5 and some other settings but every day i go on to take a pic it has gone back to automatic
How can I fix that and always have my manual mode?
Thanks
If left untouched, the camera-app will shut down after approximately 30 seconds.
Very frustrating when waiting for the perfect opportunity to take a picture.
Is there any way to change this behavior?
(Except from taking pictures or changing focus by half pressing the camera button or such)

Mine stays open all the time. I just opened camera app and put it on the table for about 2 minutes and it stays open.
Maybe u use any powersaving apps / modes?
Also, which firmware do u use?
Camera app V 1.0 or camera app V 2.0?
You can try to clear data via settings>apps>all>camera and test again.

1. Nope, no stamina mode or such
2. 32.0.A.6.200 (latest available stock)
3. Both? "Camera extension" is version 1.0 and "Camera common" is version 2.0
4. I have two, see 3 above, cleared both
Still the same after clearing data and rebooting.

Could u upload a screen recording of what exactly is happening?
And does it happen in all camera modes? (8MP, 23MP, 20MP, video, manual, superior auto, and AR as well?)
It happens if you go to camera app trough lockscreen shortcut or hardware button form stand-by, but if you unlock device, then go to camera app in normal way touching the icon from homescreen or in drawer then it won't shut down it self.

I think that is just a "feature" to prevent prolonged activation of camera if by misstake pressing the hardware shutter button or if screen goes on by some reason like sms and contact with skin through thin jeans pockets could pull around lockscreen buttons.

Oh then I misunderstood you. I thought u where talking about unlocking and then opening camera app.
I can confirm the issue now lol, but I think this is to prevent the camera staying open in case it accidentally opened.

That seems correct. Opening the app as you said made the Camera stay open til I close it manually.
I´ve never opened the camera that way before since I hava a physical button for it.

That´s probably why.
I would still like to change the behavior but I guess that´s not something done easily. (Or does anyone know a way?)
When I open pictures via the camera app sometimes the pics are upside down depending on how I decided to hold the camera for that particular picture.
Naturally you turn the phone around so it's the right way up but the picture rotates when you do that so it's upside down again.
Yes auto rotate is turned off.
Edit: you can reproduce this yourself if you open a picture via the camera app. Issue does not occur if you open the picture manually from the dcim folder
