How to re-map volume keys to be used as a camera shutter button?

Or possibly even the Power button? I tried searching and only found alternative camera apps, which sucked, and I rather use the stock camera.
My phone is rooted and all that good stuff
Can anyone help me out?
Will "Thank" your post!

Anyone?

Not having a physical button drives me crazy! Although with a volume rocker I don't think you could have a half push for focus.

Home Button/Camera Problem

Jut recently I am having this problem. Whenever I am in an app or on the home screen if I hit the home button it takes a picture of the screen. I can't get out of it unless I hit the power button to turn the screen off. Now I don't know if this might be a problem with the power button sticking because I haven't noticed it doing so. If anyone has any insight into this that would be great!
Thanks.

The issue is with your power button. To take a screenshot you have to hold down Power + Home buttons. But the power button on this device has issues and sometimes registers as being pressed when it's not, that's why it's taking a screenshot when you hit home. If you have root, try disabling the screenshot function or flashing another rom like CM7.

wow sorry i dont have this problem

There is fix for it under the General section here on XDA that requires some super glue and a steady hand. The power button basically sags after awhile, kinda sucks for such a high end device.

You may need to reboot it.

[Q] screen snap shot

Anyone any ideas how I turn this off ! It's a pain in the ass. Can't work out how it switches on but it does it so often it drives me mad

To use it, you press the Home + Sleep button. What your problem is, is the home button is getting stuck so every time you press the home button, it takes a snapshot. It's a major problem with most Sensations. I'm not sure if you can turn it off, but you can call HTC about it.

Screen Shots ?

I know with the G2X you could do screen shots out of the box .
Can you do that on the Sensation without rooting or mods ?
If so how ?

Is you're running on 2.3.4 if you hold the power button down and touch the home button it will take a screenshot.

Screen shots

Is there any way on the stock device to take a screen shot?

Power button and the home button works I think.

And a second method is power button + vol down. I find the timing tricky and sometimes end up switching the phone or the volume off but it does work when I get it right

Hit them at the same time and you're good.

IMO it works better if you press and hold the buttons until it says "Screenshot Saved"

Yes...it works! I don't have to spent $4 at the market!

I've found that if you're holding down the power button and tap the volume down or home button it usually works.
