HELP camera button not working! - General Topics

whenever i push the side button for the camera it says cannot open, shortcut not located or something
but i can go into file explorer and windows and click the icon but just not the side button...
anyone know what to do??? thanks!

please help

Sounds as though the button has been assigned to an application, not the camera, that you have since removed.

no cause like when i click the camera button icon it goes to the camera and everything works but just the side button doesnt

That is what i am saying it could be that the hardware button on the side has been assigned to something else, i have the record button assigned to Media Player.
Check what it says for Start-Settings-Buttons

i have tried but i dont know what to do when im in that menu

please help

Volume adjustment on Kaiser using scroll? Help

I have been using dutty's roms for a while and love them.. I have not tried any other roms.
Is there a program or a way to easily adjust the volume.. perhaps
using the OK button on the side to bring up the volume and then the scroll wheel up or down...
Maybe this exist's? or maybe its just a reg tweak of remaping the OK button to bring up the volume slider.
If this is possible your input would be appreciated without grilling me... for asking a silly question.
i usually hit the speaker icon with my stylus... and then use the scroll wheel.. on my HTC wizard it worked like that. I dont use the ok button. so this would be great..
I would like also like to know this.

Ditto. I'm left-handed and hardly ever use the jog wheel for selecting because it is uncomfortable. I would be satisfied with reassigning it completely to volume control.
glad i am not the only one..
I was wondering if i was the only one who wanted this feature.. but i guess I am not... It seems there must be a way to remap the ok button to the volume slider.
One the volume slider pops up, the scroll wheel works already. Its hard when your driving top get out the stylus or even use your thumb to hit the little speaker icon which is tiny..
I dont use the ok button or the scroll wheel very much so this would be great.

I Dutty's ROM's if you disable the large start menu then the jog wheel will once again control your volume.....as far as remapping it to a different button I do not know the answer.
I checked v1.1 info on this rom:

# Unable to change incall volume (with scroll wheel) due to HTC Large Title Bar, which can be uninstalled now
So maybe it's because of HTC Large Title bar?
We want to be able to press a button to make the volume/phone box pop up, just as if you had pressed the speaker icon in the title bar. Just wanted to clarify that. The jog wheel works for volume you control when you select an app FIRST that has volume options to it, but the point is you have to select that first (i.e. volume sliders on title bar).
Right now if you are on your today screen and use the jog wheel,your scroll through today options (whatever plugisn you have enabled), not volume control
what is being asked here is if you can map one of the buttons to display the volume/phone pop up box. THen we'd be able to control via jog wheel.

Ohhh very nice, good find. Thanks
Ahh to bad, breaks on kaiser.
you can see the volume controls pop up briefly and incomplete but then they pop right down.

dang.. I just tried it and it works on my trinity. Apparently it was extracted from wisbar advanced, so perhaps you can find a working version of that and extract the appropriate file.
It is sort of working actually. Just sometimes it doesnt. better then nothing though
Still hoping for solution!
thanks for the input. I hope this thread does not die. It is one of my major gripes. The Wizard did it perfectly but the Kaiser does not.
Hopefully someone can change this. even if the ok button does not work, than maybe we can get the scroll wheel button to do it. I did not realize that the scroll wheel was a button also..
cool i am going to try as well

I copied the exe to my phone, but how do i map it to the ok button..
It runs if i use file manager to locate the file. If you could tell me what you did would be great.
If you create a short cut for the .exe file and place it in the "\windows\start menu\programs" folder you will see it then when you go to map a button.

Hey guys I assigned this app to the ptt button on my Tilt and it works perfectly!
One push and I can use the jog wheel to adjust volume, another push and it's gone.
Great find thanks!!!
Ok I just upgraded my radio from 1.27.12.11 to the recommended radio for my rom, 1.58.26.20 and am now seeing the problem being discussed here.
The balloon will pop up, but only momentarily, then closes. If you hit it enough times though it'll actually stay open.
Maybe this is an issue with radio compatibility? It seemed to work perfectly with the 1.27.12.11 radio.
[edit] Soft reset and it seems to be working again.

I got the program working but could not assign it to the OK button under the jog wheel. I was able to assign it to OK on the front panel.. I use the PTT button for Voice Commander... It still would be nice to assign it to the ok button seeing that, that button is useless otherwise.

Just received my G Tablet - Menu button not working?

Sorry I did a search on this and I could not find anything. I just got my G tablet from woot today and I could not get the "MENU" button to work. It is the button below the home button and above the back button. I've used all the apps and whenever I hit the menu button nothing comes up, is this normal?

Depends on the app as to whether the menu button does anything. Some apps simply do not havea menu.
When you press the menu button while on the main screen does anything happen? It should take you to the settings options, no?

I think this is normal, that button does not seem to do anything in most stock apps. Try opening up the es file explorer and pressing it.

[Q] Volume to take pictures REQ

Hi all,
i would like to know if there is a way to assign the volume button to take pictures. the thing is that my camera button is completely broke ....
If its something that requires some time on your parts i am willing to pay you paypal gift ....
Or if you know of an app that can let me take pic by touching the screen instead of the button
As it happens, I *do* know of such an app! It's called "Camera" and is already installed on your phone!
Seriously, just go to Settings -> Applications -> Pictures + Camera, and select the very top-most option. This feature was added in Mango.
I saw the option this morning in the mango update thank you
the thing is now i can take picture but cant use the camcorder so the offer for a tuto/apps/whatever to make the volume button act as the camera button is still up .... i will pay you
Thank you for your response
You can tap the screen to take pictures without an app. Just tap it twice.
I think you can do the same thing in camcorder mode...I'll have to double-check.
I tried with double tap and it doesn't work

The top most option is to tap the screen to take the picture not the volume button right? Just wanted to make sure if I'm missing something.
Correct, and that's (one of the the things) a solution to the OP's problem.
Anyone ... like i said taping the screen work for the camera but not for the camcorder.

Question Camera Launching on wake

This is for my wifes phone, we both have S21+5G devices. Her phone will launch the camera when pressing the side power button to wake the device. It does not happen every time but probably a 50/50 chance the device will show the lockscreen correctly vs launching the camera app.
Any thoughts on where to turn this off or what is causing it?
In settings search up
Side Key
And look at all of em

Thanks, I looked and the double click/tap for camera option was checked. I am pretty sure we are not double clicking the side key but I unchecked it anyway and will see if the behavior stops.
Yea so i have played with the side key settings and the device is still being weird opening the camera, maybe it's haxxed. I will try to get the phone factory reset and hope it clears up.
