[Q] Camera Button

Hello you think it will be possible to root the camera button on the touchscreen to a physical button like the on/off button or the middle button to make better pictures?? If you try to make a photo from yourself it is nearly impossible to hit the button on the touchscreen to make the picture. Bad Solution from Samsung.
It'll be hard: power button is tied to sleep, home button is tied to suspend. You'll have to override these functions for it to happen.
maybe with a app it would be going i dunno i heard about vignette with that app it is possible to make pictures with the volume buttons.

camera zoom fx can set volume up or down keys to take pictures
Check this thread.. Posted under the general section.. Don't know whether it will help because the uploaded file is for SGS i9000.. But he has managed to implement it on an ACE so he might be able to guide you all through the process..

Uisng power button/volume rocker for camera shutter

Hi,
Is there a tweak or a camera app which makes the power button as the camera shutter? The volume rocker on the stock camera pp lets you zoom..but can it be changed to take pictures? i hate touching the screen to take pictures.
thanks
I'd love this too. I'm kind of surprised this gigantic phone doesn't have a seperate camera button.
+1 to all . . . would love this.
+1.... Would love a hard-button shutter!
I use a camera app replacement called CameraFX that allows you to choose the volume or power buttons to take photos. It was on sale for $2.99 over the weekend and is a pretty good replacement for the stock camera.
vignette is a pretty nice one lots of features like silent camera and volume button for shutter
Camera apk can be hacked to do this give it time it will come

Camera Button - P769

Is there any way to set one of the physical keys as the camera button?

I don't understand why you would want to replace one of the physical buttons... You do KNOW we ONLY have volume buttons, home button and a power button? Right?...

Sounds like you're having a bit of "diarius" of the brain! now that's smart!
Seriously not sure you would want to do that but the menu button held down will get you to Google now so if it were possible I would start there.

The VGA camera in the front isn't very clear; gotta turn the phone around to take a good pic. Voice command doesn't work well outside. I was thinking of something like holding the power button while the camera app was open would = snap a pic instead of shutting the screen? :highfive:
Camera Zoom FX is a camera app. You can configure the volume up/down buttons as a shutter. There is also an app on the Play Store called Volshutter Camera, which allows you to configure the volume keys to activate the shutter.

Hello mensrius,
This is quite amazing, I am already using this feature with my p765 factory JB rom v20a. Pressing volume button (no matter up or down), while having stock camera app open, phone sets focus and snap a picture . May be you haven't tried it or this feature is missing in p769

Key may be broken then, if it only ocus and won't capture it won't launch camera either.
In dialer type "*#*#7378423*#*#" (no quotes) and go to Service tests -> Keyboard & Switch, press the camera to next stage see if you get "Camra" or only "Auto Focus"
hmmmmmm
I check it work in service test.

You get "Camera" in the test?
Have you installed any camera MOD, are you on Stock ROM?
thanks

Shutter Sound

Is there a way to disable the G5's camera shutter sound like I was able to do with my HTC One? If so, I can't seem to find that setting.
Thanks.
Without rooting, no one knows??

For non rooted users lowering the volume or mute the phone would turn off the shuttersound of the camera.

Ok thanks, I will try that. On my previous HTC One m7 there was a separate setting in the camera settings where you could disable the shutter sound - set it there and forget it. Too bad the G5 doesn't seem to have such a setting.
