Just the other day I found that in the camera flash option menu, in the camera app, there was an option for the flashlight.
I installed the OTA yesterday, and now that option is gone.
Anyone know how to get that option back? it's probably one of the most useful features of the camera app.
I cannot help here, but related Question is, and this may be of use to you too.
A Better Camera apk does allow the torch to be on before and of course during the shot.
This app works much better in low light but not as good as our regular cam in other respects.
Any one know of app that does this?

Hey guys
Im wondering if its possible to access the photolight in my program? Dont know where to look to find out.
Thanks in advance
I can't tell you 100% sure, but I heard that Android support the LED from version 2.0/2.1
I noticed that Barcode Scanner offer the option to turn on the camera light, and it works on my X10. So I'd assume that there are software hooks that work in 1.6.
start your camera, and push the silver button (one with 4 squares on it)..
advanced settings, then photo light
I know how to get it on like that but i want to make an app as just a flashlight. Is there anywhere that shows you how to use specific hardware?
@beermonkey182 if you manage to find this out and make this app, I'll buy it
Well. Enable it with barcode scanner and it's enabled every time you start the app. Problem solved.
there is a free app in the market named "Xperia Flashlight", comes with widget, works wonderfull
LED Light ver 1.0.0 is for HTC but also works great on Xperia X10
There is also a great wee app called 'Flash Light'
If you search in the market for X10 you should find it.
Its great because it can be used as an app and/or a widget!
I'm tying to figure out how to use the front camera for taking pictures. I can do the video stuff no problem, just not take pictures. Seems silly the native camera app would not offer this.
From what I read, there should be an option in qik to do this, but from the one I downloaded from the market, I'm not seeing this option. I'm running Frankenstein and have checked through all the various mod paqs and there is no qik app in there that may have this feature enabled. What am I missing?

Inside the camera app... Click the Top left icon on the screen and select Self-Shot.
Is that what you are looking for?
Perfect thanks so much! Guess the internet docs on this not working through the camera app are wrong.
Stock latest lollipop camera works fine, after camera update takes black picture with flash. Uninstalling update fixed the issue.
Cm12.1 same issue with ROM default camera.
Chroma same issue with default camera.
EDIT: found using latest camera on kitkat is flawless. only when on lollipop and latest camera this issue occurs.
Uninstall google camera...use camera360 instead

dont need these stupid filter camera's. plus it doesn't have video mode.
what i want is a simple no blabla camera that do picture and video, or a fix to this flash issue that takes black picture.
iv got an older google camera and it works fine, but it auto updates so i disabled auto update for now.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera
Use this. It supports video recording too.
Camera360 is also great.
here what i found according to my need that is..
1 old version of Google camera
2 open camera (ui is not great specially settings)
3 better camera (paid but worth it)
Google camera and better camera takes same quality pictures, video is better on better camera on low light condition.
i was facing same issue , but i found a solution . you have to press anywhere on the screen first , 2nd time you press on capture button . it works for me
no that just add inconvenience, i found using older version of google camera is far better, just have to see i don't update it by mistake.
Has anyone found a way to add camera to the UPSM ? I hope there's a xposed tweak or root exploit that allows this to happen?
THANKS IN ADVANCE !!!
Hi there,
I've been thinking of the same thing - it looked like there might be some ways with the rooted phone, but not sure if they made anything for the S7 yet. Luckily, I have WhastApp enabled by default, so I can take pictures with it (and videos) and send them to myself, all from UPSM. There's no need for a data connection or WiFi, the transfer will fail, but the photo will be saved in the Gallery. Also, to view your entire photo gallery from USPM, open up Facebook and hit Photo - long tap any picture to preview it.
I'd love to have the camera directly though, this is a bit roundabout (but, ok, better than not at all), which makes UPSM even better.
Cheers
Yeah it's a shame you can't use camera in UPSM mode. I had a Sony Xperia Z2 before this and on that with Ultra Stamina mode you could...

Isn't there an app called UPSM manager? I remember using one to add custom apps to UPSM.
Yea, I have rooted galaxy s7, and with upsm manager, I can add any camera app (or virtually any other app for that matter). Default camera app works great and so does any other camera app like open camera in UPSM mode. Also with default camera app, double pressing home button brings up camera app which is convenient. UPSM mode is best mode for my galaxy S7 because battery lasts several times longer than normal mode and I can still do pretty much everything!
Hi there!
I flashed the ResurrectionRemix rom, but the stock camera app that comes with it does not seem to allow changing the aspect ratio and resolution (we were several people to look into it and did not find the option).
Then, I installed CameraMX, but it bugs a lot with panorama, and cannot switch to front camera (when I click the button to switch, it says on the back camera).
Because, at least in my memories, the stock camera app of the OP5 was near perfect, I'd very much like to install it in place of these 2 bugged camera apps that I have now.
Is it possible to do this?
Thanks a lot!

Use Google camera along with Magisk fix.

Also use appropriate section for asking questions.
Thanks for the reply! I'm gonna try that
However, am I not in the "apps" forum?
