Please anyone list any app that will disable 1 of the led lights on the EVO phone. It's way to bright and washes you like a ghost when too close.

play with the camera a lil bit, try holding the "camera" button to take a picture. It should start super bright and slowly dim until the perfect brightness then take the picture. If that isnt working for you then take the picture by pressing on the focal point of the picture instead of the "camera" button on the screen. I've found this to be the best way to take pictures, basically you are telling the phone what to focus on and it adjusts the light accordingly. works for me even if in complete darkness...good luck

Hi,
I recently took my Nexus on a trip and used it to take some 300 pictures. It's amazing the quality of the photos it takes, but one thing that really bothered me at times was the fact that the camera would always focus at the centre of the picture, while the important part might be at one of the sides.
Would it be possible to add a "touch to focus" feature in the stock camera app? What do you guys think?
Hold down on the "shutter" button to adjust your focus. Once you get a green box around your screen, that focal length will be retained until you let go of the button and a picture is taken.
If you slide your finger off the button (as in, without lifting), you can release the focus without taking a picture.
Not sure if that's the same thing you're looking for, but it's a hidden feature in the stock camera app.

Dude! Why wasn't I informed of this before!
Thanks a lot for the tip, I will make good use of it!
Would manual focus be possible to accomplish? I've had a few situations where I wanted to frame a photo with the subject off-center, but focusing on that subject and blurring the background is a tough trick.
I saw a suggestion in the Diamond forum for a method where you'd touch the screen to select the focal point, but I'd be happy with a simple mod to the capacitive 'zoom wheel' that would change the virtual focal length.
Any thoughts?
First, focus on the object (it must be on the center of the screen), then, touch (don't press) the Shutter button (action button) until the focus locked, don't release it, then, move your Raphael to your desired position (subject off-center), and finally press the Shutter button, the camera will not trying to auto-focus anymore.
Ah, clever trick! I didn't realise that it would hold the focus until you removed your finger from the button.
Thanks much... I'll give this a try. ^^d
Edit: Worked fantastically. I'll upload the pics when I get the chance.

or if anyone now how to take picture with power button,if it's possible.
I don't know if it's possible with the power button, but I use "Camera ZOOM FX" and it allows me to use "volume up" (or down) to take picture.
Try this
Fast Burst Camera Lite(free). crazy fast.

yes,but i would like have some moded camera app like i have on galaxy s,with almost every custom rom.darkyrom supose to have,but i have tried that,and i couldnt use,non stop force close
I was wondering if this is already out there or maybe somebody can come up with a way o do this.
a lot of people complain about cameras not opening up fast enough and some phones not having a dedicated camera button.
what about having you camera turn on whenever you put your phone into landscape mode??
is it possible or already done?
I have not seen it but it sounds as a good idea until you want to use your phone in landscape mode for something else like viewing a photo from the gallery or watching a movie. What we need is to have someone come up with a way to use one of the buttons as a shutter button like the Blackberry Storm had and this way you take a photo as if you had a camera.
Using a hardware button is a relatively simple piece of coding - just trigger a specific run sequence when the button is pressed.
To trigger it based on the orientation of the phone would not only be much more difficult, but it would swallow the battery like Devine Brown swallows English actors just to keep monitoring the gyroscopic sensors on a constant basis.
Closest thing to this I have seen is nova action to long press menu key and bind it to camera and it opens or aokp/cm9 and lock screen shortcut it

I think that sounds like a cool feature, but I see a problem with it because I know a lot of people who always turn their phone sideways(even when not in a browser or anything), and that would pose a problem for them.
what about a widget to turn on off the feature, so that when u know ur going to be in a situation to take pictures and when not u can turn it off,
idk there has to be away i mean our freaking phones talk back now but we cant find a way to start up our cameras quicker???
probably only possible with a rooted phone and a button press + landscape mode
Cm10.1 has option for using power button as shutter action

I found this feature by accident, and never read about it anywhere,
But if you hold your finger pressing the screen on camera app it starts to take many pictures in a row (you can see the pictures counter on the screen).
Really nice feature and i hope I'm not stating the obvious here...
I've also found that by accident!

If you press and keep pressing the volume button it will do the same.
The app walkthrough the first time you open the camera explains this feature. To get the walkthrough after the first time, in the camera slide out the menu and press the ? In the top right

I discovered this by accident the other day as well! Was actually annoyed as I was just trying to take one focused photo so had to delete like 10. Still, nice feature to have!
was on a kids ride at SeaWorld and after taking a picture of my kids I put the phone in my jeans pocket. It ends up taking 200+ pictures (showing part of my jeans pocket + sky) in the short 1 min ride... Google Photos is nice enough to make a couple animations from it...
