why is the camera app landscape position wrong (volume buttons down)?
i know when you have screen rotation on, you can rotate it the other way, but most 3rd party camera apps ive used have default landscape with volume buttons down. now the led flash is on the bottom of the lens. this is completely wrong to take pics. also when you have a rom that enables volume button shutter, it would only make sense for the shutter button to be on top.
which camera app allows custom exposures? for the iphone, there are 3rd party apps that allow you to multitouch the screen to select exposure and where to focus.

Hi,
I'm fairly new here but I have done a reasonable amount of searching (imo) and have yet to find a result to effectively change songs while listening to music without having to take phone out of pocket (bluetooth devices, and shake2playnext excluded).
I found an app called 'Next Song' which interprets double-presses on the volume - this would be nice, only I haven't been able to make it work successfully (next song popup notification appears but track does not change)
At one point, I used button remapper to remap my camera button to media_next. (was using camera360 at this point with camera button). After the GB update and recent threads, I have wanted to use the SE camera more. Unfortunately, the camera button does not work in SE's camera button without the focus button (must press focus before camera button, then picture will be taken).
If anyone's got a solution let me know please
(remap longpress/volume, double press volume rockers? or take picture without focus button on SE camera?)
Maybe missed this in some other threads, search wasn't helping much though.
Is there a way to either:
A) Make the volume rocker the shutter button? I can zoom on the touch screen (running Alien4)
B) Make the shutter voice activated, say by saying "Cheese" "Click" or something when in the camera app (might be a tasker thing?)?
trying to hit the touch screen shutter button one handed can be a pain in the ass.

Say Cheese.
looks like that can do the voice activated deal, is there a way to make the volume hardware button the shutter button?
I love my evo 3D but one thing that has been driving me nuts is that whenever im holding it in landscape mode i keep hitting the heat sensitive buttons on the right while playing games or watching movies... this either causes the phone to vibrate or minimizes the app
is there a way to turn off the buttons in landscape mode?

i haven't seen any 3rd party apps which disable these buttons .. the only controls i've seen were for the LED backlight on the buttons, which i don't think is what you're looking for.
i would think, in theory, there should be some type of API an application could tap into which would disable those buttons. the first downside which comes to mind is there is no way to exit out of the application if for some reason the application has any type of issues and the back/home buttons are still disabled.
perhaps with back/home buttons disabled, enable volume rocker to go back to home? the logic starts to get a bit tricky.
the best and most narrowly focused solution which comes to mind would be for the game app developer to handle those buttons during game play. perhaps require the home or back buttons to be held instead of tapped in order to trigger their standard action.
perhaps a 3rd party app could disable tapping the buttons and require them to be held for 5 seconds in order to trigger their standard tapping action?
i know on ics, this is handled a bit better as there are no hardware buttons and they are handled in the software. in the stock ics gallery, the buttons are dimmed to dots instead of their full icons while viewing images, which gives the impression there is greater software control over those buttons than previously.
i'm sure if somebody else has seen any solutions, they'll post up.
hope that helps with a few technical thoughts from the background of an application developer!
Is there anyway to change the volume up and down button to zoom in and out rather than take a photo while in video mode? I don't like zooming in with my fingers in the screen while taking a video and would rather use the volume buttons
I don't know when it happened, but I just noticed it this morning. I have two shutter buttons on my screen. Funny thing is they both work when taking pictures. Anyone else have this issue?
FIGURED IT OUT. It is the floating camera button. LOL
it's floating shutter button, you can move it anywhere on the screen, go to camera setting and turn it off if you don't want it.
