How to use the instant picture setting? - HTC Sensation

I remember watching a demo video on the sensation and seeing it had the option to instantly take pictures as soon i click the shutter button. How do i toggle that feature?

It's enabled by default to my knowledge, didn't see any option to disable it yet.

Really? I noticed it took fast pictures, but they aren't coming out that great.
So the setting is on? that's lame.

Is there any way to use camera w/ flash light during call?

I've been finding myself in many situations where I would love to use my camera in dark/dim places while on a phone call, however, I get a message saying:
"flash light is disabled because of low battery power, cold weather, or phone call."
I tried using an app called LED Desire to take pictures, but it will just shut off during the snapshot. However, it does work well with the video camera on call or off call (pretty nice).
Is there a way to have the flash light work for the camera during phone calls?
Thanks.
Guessing this is a no go?

Download LED Light from the market. Works greats for the camera and video
You must be on the phone a lot o_o.
Try LED Light.
get flashlight alerts forgot where i got it.. Ill post all my found apps sometime soon.
it is designated app to flash LEDs when sms and calls come in even in vibe or silent.
Thanks for the replies, but like led desire, led light does the same thing when taking pictures while on the phone.... the light just forcefully shuts off after snapping a pic causing a black pic. Haha and yes I talk a lot and like to share my surroundings while on phone

[Q] Pictures post sideways

When i post pics all of them are sideways?Any ideas why?Thanks.
My guess is that you are turning your camera sideways to take the picture, which sets something in the meta data of the pic and then when you look at it in the gallery or whatever other program you use to view it automatically rotates it to show you but doesn't actually change the file so when you go to upload the pic it is still sideways.

I also have this issue. I turn my camera, take a photo, and then rotate it using the gallery so it's the correct angle, then upload it to FB and the photo seems unaffected from the rotate. It seems tedius to have to get a seperate app just to rotate photos for FB, or to manually have to go to FB to rotate them... Any ideas?
I just hold the camera the way it's supposed to be held...
Ok thanks maybe that's why because im not holding camera like it should be.thanx again.

this happens on most android phones. The camera default way of taking a picture is long ways up and down not side to side.
I haven't noticed any difference. Sometimes they post sideways no matter what way I took the picture. Took one today sideways and it posted correctly. Could it possibly be in the settings?

Yeah I haven't had this issue. Maybe the accelerometer isn't reading right or something? Everything works fine taking pictures tilted to the side and such.

While watching online video (flash) display off...

After upgrade on JB, when i watch online full screen video (flash) after 30 sec display turns off,,,,
On 4.0 when i use it.... the screen was never turn off while i use online video....
Any idea?
Thanks!
On firefox - OK
On built in browser - display turns off
((((
Sounds like a bug. Could try factory reset to be sure.
Or get tasker and set a profile to disable screen timeout when running browser

Sounds like a bug to me as well. Stock browser is wonky like that. I only use Chrome.

Question(s) about the cm10 camera?

I've been a long time user of the android camera app, touchwiz camera was downright amazing.
I recently flashed a cm10 based ROM and have been playing around with the camera and have some questions.
1. Do you need to tap the screen to focus every time you want to take a picture? My past cameras had the constant block of auto focus so you could just wait for the green and snap. Or does the tap focus only pertain to the spot you want to focus on?
2. Is there a macro mode?..perhaps this is 'flower' mode?
Finally...anyway to turn off the shutter sound other than silent mode? This ones not anything major I just figured I would ask. Thanks guys!

No, you don't need to tap the screen to focus every time. If you move around to different points in camera mode you'll see the screen zooming in and out to focus on the point in the center of the screen. I think the tap is to focus on a point off the center of the screen (taking a photo of someone while their not centered in the screen)
There is a macro mode. When you open the camera there's a settings button right next to the negative zoom slider. After that there's a 3 button settings right where you just clicked, and in there you'll find macro/burst, and all the other extras.
I haven't seen a shutter sound off option yet.
Thanks! I am still unable to find macro..I did find the burst shot which ranges from 5-20 shots. However I don't see macro listed. Maybe I'm just missing it. If you are able could you upload a screenshot of it please? Thanks again!

You're welcome. I can't make a screenshot whenever I try it says that my storage is in use (assuming because camera is open) but if you go into the settings like I described before... the 4th one down gives you "focus mode" that's set to continuous.. click on that to the right and you'll find macro in there.

The AOSP camera is definitely lacking compared to the TW one.
That being said here is an ongoing project to add more features to the AOSP camera in order to make it closer to TW:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611
I do miss the TW camera, but camera isn't a deal breaker for me to remain on TW... I see more benefits using aosp instead.
Thanks for the link, I'll be sure to bookmark it and check back periodically to see if there's improvements. I see in screenshots its able to store on extsdcard which is nice.
You can easily get rid of camera sounds renaming the sound files from CM -> media -> audio -> ui
just rename the camera files and video files with ending .bak and reboot your phone. After every update you have to do it again.

Cyanogen Camera issues

Not sure if its just me or if anyone else is experiencing this issue
As you can watch this video, it takes forever for the camera to take pic and then processing it..
If I close the camera app before it thumbnail goes to the top right corner, it seems to just delete itself..
BTW, Im on CM11s rom, running franco kernel, in case anyone wants to know...
Thanks for any help..
You're using HDR mode that complies multiple exposure settings to get you the best pic. It's always slower than non HDR mode.
That looks horrible.
HDR mode on my nexus 4 works a lot faster.

First pic was in auto mode.. you can see after I focused on the car, I hit the shutter button... 3 secs later, sound and then another 7 secs later the pic gets taken.. I then swiped to the different scene modes
but regardless which scene mode, does the same thing... really annoying.. tried uninstalling and reinstalling many times but same thing...
not sure if theres a similar topic, but Ive noticed an issue with saving photos after they are taken, it takes couple minutes or more for them to show in gallery.
if I take a photo, and go out of the camera app and enter gallery, the most recent photos wont show.
But if I go back to camera app and swipe right, it will show them there.. wth?!
Try downloading the latest version from play.
