Hi guys
I've searched the web and this forum but haven't been able to find anything. I've got the R2AA010 rom installed, and the camera button no longer takes photos.
When I press the camera button the camera application starts up as normal. But to take a picture I have to press the action key now. This is annoying because I can no longer to the half press to make the camera focus.
Is there a way to change the camera button mapping in the camera application back to the camera button?
thanks
hi all is it possible to make the camera boot and take pictures with the volume up hardware button, i find my self not needing the volume keys so this would make taking pictures easier for me
thanks all
You can even assign different functions to the volume keys, e.g. single press for volume up, long press for camera, with AEButton Plus.
ok will give this go does this app allow taking pictures while in the app? or just bootup app
If you assign the 'enter key' function to a volume key as well, you can also take pictures.
E.g. long press to launch camera, sinlge press for taking the picture (if you don't need the volume up function) OR long press for camera, double press for volume up and single press for taking the picture OR any other configuration you like

ok im not quiet understanding matey please bare with me, ive assigned the long press fuction on the volume up button to booting the camera app,
and then selected the single tap on the volume up button and set it to "press enter" this did not allow me to take a picture, did u mean something else?
thankyou
edit the press enter function i assigned to the volume key works in say file explorer by opening and installing cabs e.c.t
Hm, I have not tested it on the HD2, but it worked on the HD like that.

does the hd have a ok/enter button in which it take pictures as the hd2 doesn't its all screen based
is this correct
No, the HD has no dedicated button as well. It's strange that pressing enter on the HD works but not on the HD2. Are you sure that it doesn't work on the HD2?

Yes, your settings are correct.
It doesn't work on my HD2 either. Strange, because it worked with the HD. Well...
any other info that would help?
how do you edit volume keys to use them like this?
Enter in camera app doesn't work on my HD2 as well ..
ANybody found any solution to this.. aeb is wonderful app
found
found this :

try it
There is also Volumex, it will catch the keys automatically, no need to hook any shortcut to open camera app. Doesn't work for zoom though...
I sometimes wanna take a picture of myself or something and you cant feel the capture button so it'll be cool to use volume up or down to capture a shot
i am an htc kaiser user. i've been browsing the hd2 forums for a few weeks so maybe my suggestion won't help.
on the htc kaiser, there are THREE button-based ways to capture a photo:
1. full press of the camera button
2. press the start menu button
3. press the d-pad center button
i know 1 and 3 don't exist on the hd2...but the hd2 does have a start menu button...see if pressing that captures a photo. if so, post back here and let us all know!
Just realised something pressing down the camera key and home button together when the screen is off activates the camera similar to the Xperia S saving you even more time then having to slide the camera key. Pressing the camera key on its own doesn't, but good to see Sony gave it to arc users
thought I'd share
Does it work on the beta too? I can't try it because my current ROM has camera button for wake enabled...

Fast capture is shooting photo in "blind mode" and you're just turning on camera ; d but still good though.
Thanks for the info! I didn't know that this existed
You don't need to press both buttons together. Just press the home button first to wake device and then press the camera key.

Yup and this works when you are in any app I guess.Hard press camera key & camera will be on & other app will be minimized useful feature tbh

Yes I know, but its quicker to do that then press them separately in two stages and is less like the fast capture on the XS then
I didn't knew that!
Thanks!

Yesterday I went into a pool and tried to take pictures from my S5, but it was very difficult to activate the shutter under the water.
Does anyone know if there is a MOD to use the power button as the camera shutter or have any other ideas of how to take photos under water?
Thanks

In the settings of the camera you can set the volume keys to take a pic or rec video or zoom.
The default is take pic.
So just use the volume keys. works great

Thanks man, I found that settings and works great

I own a Galaxy Music, and it would be great to use its music button as camera shutter too... is there any post o help you can give me???... thanks
It would be best if some dev can mod the stock s5 camera.apk so that when you press the power button it would take a picture instead of locking the device. No one locks their phone while they're in the camera app, because they're gonna take pics so the power button is the perfect button for such a mod Please someone make this mod!
