Even I'm looking to do this. MIUI needs to fix this. Even on lockscreen swipe right , stock camera opens up. That also has to be changed.

Unless I'm mistaken, what I did to the camera there is supposed to make it so the search button opens the camera and takes the pictures. Well, it does open the camera, but it doesn't take the pics. Am I wrong about it making it so it also takes pics? And if that's not the right way to do it, does anyone know how?

When you make a button open the camera thats using the long press shortcut setting, so you for example you hold the search key for 2 sec and it opens the camera. And as far as the button used for taking the picture itself, that is a setting in the actual camera app that you can set in some roms. I know with CM7 you can set it to have the search key, volume key, or power button snap the picture.

Wow, really? I did not know about that setting. Thanks!
THE BEAST
camera button
i miss the camera button on my Droid X
Is there any way to zoom using the volume button? I installed a different camera app ("open camera") which lets me do that, but it does not launch with the camera button. So if the answer to the first question is no, then is there away to change the camera that opens with the camera button?
Hi
I have installed the Google Camera on my Poco F1 [from apkquick] and made that the default camera. I would really like to have a gesture/ button shortcut (eg. double click the power button) to take me to the Google Camera. But it always takes me back to Poco's own camera app. Is there a way to have a gesture/ button shortcut to the Google Camera app?
Thanks!
Hello,
it seems the option to double press the power button to launch the camera is not available on the Oppo.
Do you confirm, or did I miss it somewhere?
that's a pretty convenient feature I miss
There is just press and hold power key for 0.5 sec to get google assistant.
Yes found this one. Sad
Hi,
There is a camera shortcut in the right bottom corner of the lockscreen and you can activate the camera by making a O gesture when the phone is locked.
Oppo made some strange choices in the OS though. ColorOS, well at least the international version with Google backed in, isn't all that bad. But activating the camera is one of those things that is restricted. You can launch almost any app from the lock screen by gesture, but when it comes to the camera Oppo decided for you you have to draw a O. A simple swipe up would be a lot faster and the camera is one of those things you just need fast every now and then. Still the shortcut and O gesture work well enough in my opinion.
Not sure if it's something I inadvertently broke, but when my UK XQ-BC52 61.1.A.2.211 (Android 12) is locked, I can't get into the Photo Pro app by holding the shutton button. It just opens up the lock screen asking me to unlock the phone.
Double pressing the power button does still work though.
My phone has an unlocked bootloader and is running Magisk.
Just another A12 bug?
Is it just Sony's confusing mess? Opening the camera with the power button is a system setting while the shutter button is an application setting in Photo Pro and Cinema Pro. Maybe the Photo Pro has no background permission and can't see the button presses.
Ah, just figured it out. Turns out it was caused by me removing the camera shortcut from the lockscreen with XPERI+. Resetting the Right shortcut got the shutter button working properly again.
