[Q] Quickly open camera when screen is off - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
Is there anyway that I can fast open the camera when the cellphone screen is off? Sometimes it takes valuable seconds to go through the lock screen and unlock using the camera icon.
I was thinking if there's a way to configure phone to do this.. for example, double fast pressing the ON/OFF button to fast open in camera... and triple pressing it to make a picture
Thank you

The program name is QuickClick

Challange! Lock Device On Power Off/screen Off.

I have been trying to Find a Macro Mapper or some kind of 3rd party ap to lock my device when i press the power button. The only work around at this time is to use Lock Device with 4 number pin and 0min lock setting. however i am tired of constantly pressing digits and would rather use native Lock Function that requires bottom left tap to unlock than middle right side tap to confirm unlock. However, it is only initiated from a Lock on screen tap.
IF anyone knows how to enable this lock by pressing the power button which is in my case on the right side of my mogul(PPC6800) that shuts off the screen and powers down to standby i would greatly appreciate it. this is also a replacement for S2U which has a few bugs with slide out keyboard and memory leaks.

Picture Camera Xperia x1

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.

display wake up

Hi all,
i sometimes notice this problem on my omnia 7..
when the screen is turned off and i press the middle button the screen is not turning on.. i have to press it again or press the power button.. anyone experienced this problem?? any idea what can it caused?? I do not have any apps installed..
Thanks..
I have the same, sometimes the middle windows button will not wake the phone up.
When the middle button refuses to wake up the phone the camera button also refuses to wake up the phone and go straight to the camera app. I need to press the power button and then the camera button.
Annoying.
Do you guys know the term "it is a feature" when something in reality is a flaw - well in this case it really is a feature
If the sensors notice that the phone is in a complete dark surrounding it assumes the phone is in a pocket. Therefore it not wakes your screen up and also the camera button will not work. You can test this if you hold your thumb over the sensors next to the speaker strip.
Should your camerabutton not function in a bright setting, it is of course a different situation.
What an easy and clever answer..
Thank you very much.. next time i will think more.. OMNIA 7 rulezzz
Aaaah clever stuff!
Superb thanks

[Q] Screen off without locking device

Hi,
I want to know about any app or widget that just put screen to off, without locking the device. Same function like when I press the power button.
For example lock automatically device time is 5 minutes after screen automatically turns off. So if I press power button, it simply turn off the screen, if within 5 minutes pressing home button or power button again, it brings device on. (do not ask to unlock device pattern or pin)
So far I have checked almost all apps / widgets that on press, lock the device as well.
I am not looking for apps which are using any proximity or any other sensor. I am using galaxy s4
I already have checked other related questions in this xda developer, but could not find the answer to it exactly.
Thanks
Interested as well!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This one maybe: HERE. Try other thing too: Put the lockscreen off manually (Apps - Settings - My device - Lock Screen - Screen Lock - None)

Question about Fingerprint/Power button

Hello G6 owners, I have a question about the fingerprint sensor/power button. Is this a physical button that you press in, compared to the fingerprint sensors on the Pixel phones? If so, do you have to physically press it at the same time you scan your fingerprint in order to turn your phone on? Or can you set it to just turn the phone on with a touch? Also, if this is indeed a physical button, does pressing it while the screen is on turn the screen off? And finally one more question: how hard do you have to press? It seems like it would be awkward physically pressing a button in that position...
The V30 looks pretty awesome and I'm assuming it is the same as the G6 in regards to the sensor/button.
Thanks!
When you want turn off the screen or shutdown the phone you need to click ( simple click like all buttons ) and for wakeup or open your phone you need just a simple touch on the button for scanning your fingerprint ..
You can also use the double click on the screen for turning off the screen or double click + password/knockcode/pin... For wakeup the phone
