[Q] Any way to record a video with the screen off?

Hey, I will be recording a show I'm doing for fun at work and I was wondering if there is a way to turn the screen off but have the video recording continue. My phone will be held still so I don't need the screen to see what is recording. I still want to use the HD feature. Any person aware of an app that can allow this or something?
I don't know of any app like this, but why would you want that?

i think he wants to record movie in theatres
or secretly record a woman
I don't know the closest you could do is put the brightness to the lowest.
Look up an app called Screen Filter, it basically just dims the screen but its adjustable

[Q] Camera start gesture

I find I keep activating the camera when I take it out of my pocket and in some cases actually snap pictures. Does anyone know how to deactivate the gesture to open the camera? All I see is that I can turn off all gestures, I only want to disable this one. Thanks!
I was trying to figure that out also
You must have some huge pockets to be able to take your phone out in landscape orientation and press the volume key at the same time.
I've tried to duplicate your issue but can't. Do you use a case? Maybe your volume rocker is really sensitive.
A custom ROM is all I can suggest but that would be the same as turning off the touch gestures in Sense. I wish HTC would have made it where you can turn off each gestures individually and I was kind of hoping that was the case when I got my phone.

Ambient display question

Is there a way to change the ambient display to come on whenever you wake the screen, then you have the choice to show the lockscreen?
I would love this feature on my phone

How to use only the second screen?

Is there any way to use only the second screen? I am not talking about muting the main screen by lowering the brightness through the dual screen tool, I mean just use the second screen.
Yes actually there is. It's kind of a workaround but I'm working on an app for it. Since it's an OLED display, pure black with no action on touch is essentially the same as screen off, though gestures will still work. I will post the APK here when I finish the app. In the meantime, download or create a png or jpg file that's just pure black, a black square essentially, of any resolution. Open it in your stock Gallery app on the main screen and click on it to make it go full screen. This doesn't disable touch but it will essentially turn off your primary screen even while actively using the second screen.

Nice! I have been doing the gallery trick but the picture tools and the status bar still show up.
Wow I'm really pumped now.

Sweet, sounds cool!
Use black screen app
Also rgb for selfie light
I use the Black Screen app as well. Especially useful when watching landscape video on second screen. Plus it's accessible as a toggle in quick settings.

HBOMax app rotate correctly

ANyone use the HBOMax app? Putting it on the second screen and it will only rotate clockwise so you have to rotate the phone to the left so that both screens are on top. Any way to get to go counter clockwise, so you can watch it with the phone setting flat?

It's still like this. Such a pain. I'm still looking for a workaround.
