When I use the camera and press the shutter button, I found that it is unable to focus when I press half shutter. The screen is flashing between focusing and the normal camera UI. But there is no problem when I press the shutter firmly to take photos. Any people have the same problem?
Camera button - Not working at all!
Having a different problem... My camera button will fire up the camera fine, but it becomes inactive after that. In other words it can't be used to focus or take the shot. I have to use the fiddly D-Pad to take a picture.
It seems this might be a button mapping issue, I am using AEButton Plus, but even disabling that hasn't solved the problem. I am sure this could be fixed by a registry setting.
I really can't take the hard-reset option as I have spent a long time getting everything how I want it and restoring a backup afterwards will cause the problem to come back.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Sony ericsson Xperia x1.For any reason i cant make picture with button on side this ceel phone.if i touch this button i only wake up this cell phone.but if i like set up cameras and make any picture i must go on Start-programs-picture and videos,click on,cameras and picture i must make with senzor button.You have any idea why??this button don t work.Thank for ansver and help.Danny.
Umm....its hard trying to understand what u typed. but I think you're having a problem with getting your camera to start with the side camera button right? well I had the same problem at first, but then I figured out that you have to press the camera button further down to get it to work. doing a soft press on the button is used for focusing the camera, thats why you have to press it down hard
Hold the camera button down until the screen changes to a gray logo of a camera. Should load from anywhere on the phone
In camera, go to settings icon and choose thee shooting mode (button will have different behaviour depending on which shooting setting you choose)

new to SE phones?
Sony Ericssons have camera buttons to be pressed at almost very hard for it to turn the camera on. (well unless if the cellphone have lens cover.)
Then taking a picture takes a couple of seconds late that is, pressing soft for focusing, then press hard for taking a shot. You can also take a shot right away by pressing hard but it might still take a couple of split seconds to shoot.
I wonder why they say " Never miss a shot" hehehe hope this helps but if your phone still doesn't respond maybe there is a problem with your camera button.
Try opening your camera by goinf to pics and vids then activate your camer NOW, try to take a picture by pressing the button. if it responds and takes shots. then you've probably need a master reset, or reflash.
Camera
Yes,i press this button verry hard for long time,soft for long time and nothing happen.Still i cant use this button.You have any other idea.What you think about master reset, or reflash.??Thank you for any ansver.Danny.
Do you have installed manilla landscape?
If yes, I've read the camera button will be unmapped
Picture
No,i don t installed manilla landscape.Why?
First of all, the button works fine for taking screenshots/starting video recording while already in the camera app
thing is, when I'm on homescreen, and hold the camera button to turn camera app on, it doesn't do that
Try to press it as you take a picture, half way down to focus and then full down to shoot just try it and it works that way
rofl, very true
thanks !
Howdy,
I am trying to figure out how to "lock" the camera during a video recording. On my old Galaxy S, if I press the power button during vid record
then the camera would lock and pressing any buttons (except power again) or touching the screen would not affect the video being recorded. I cannot find this feature on my Note 3. During video record the power button just turns off the screen and inturn stops the recording. The screen is so close to the edge that holding it anywhere except by the edges seems to turn off or otherwise change the recording.
Anyone know how to to lock recording?
Cheers.
How is your camera opening speed with double pressing the home button? Mine is 2-3 sec. Long story short I got first s7edge with defected home button or screen it was making an insanely loud click sound when pressed, got it exchanged with close to ok home button and now camera opening speed drives me nuts... My GF got a gold s7edge with perfect home button and the camera opening speed is usually 1 sec. I checked both phones with AIDA64 and camera sensors are the same everything is the same but I have that stupid delay... Tried clearing data of the camera app, also wiped cache in stock recovery, tried to remove the SD card from the phone still same problem... When I lounch camera app with a shortcut all is OK it opens in 1 sec, when I use double home button it's 2-3 sec, first screen lights up the the camera app loads. Rly don't know what to do but this makes me mad... OCD at its finest I guess. Could it be home button problem? The only thing I didn't try is factory reset or trying the nougat beta... Or maybe it could be some app that makes my camera slower? I know some apps ask for permission of a camera app...
