Camera shutter, media button and volume keys (zoom) stopped working. Recently flashed chronos brianlee version. Camera app opens from app folder but cannot take a picture or video. All suggestions are welcome.
Thank you
Do they work in openrecovery (to rule out hardware failure)?
Thank you for replying.
Yes. They do work in Open recovery.
When I hold down the shutter key to take a picture, it just tries to focus, a green box comes on, but does not complete the action. Oddly, the same result when holding either media or volume up, volume down keys.

I'm wondering if it's possible to map the camera shutter to a physical button. I had this on my Nexus One and it was awesome.
In the mean time you could use smile detection if its for self shots haha..

What camera button?!
If you use the long button on the RHS of the phone, your wishes will be granted...
The volume rocker doesn't work, but the smile feature does.
Found this app moments ago and it seems to work great if you want to use it to set the volume+ button for the camera/camera shutter.
Bad news is, it sets it system wide but you can tap volume down then slide the volume slider up. Holding down volume+ will launch the camera and tapping it one time will snap a photo. I can confirm this works on CleanROM 4.5

I have this mod in my roms but its not system wide, only when the camera is open....
Hello!
I search at XDA for a couple of days without success, I would like to trigger the camera app in my Xperia ZL with the physical camera button, I'm using Paranoing rom and when I keep the button pressed the phone just vibrates without open the app. In the stock rom even when the phone was locked holding the camera button the phone opens the camera app. I would be happy to just open the camera holding the button with the phone unlocked. I've took a look inside /system/usr/keylayout/ and /system/usr/keychars/ folders without success...
Thanks!
I've bought this wireless selfie shutter, but you have to download some other camera app to have it make pictures.
I'd like to just use the native camera app.
Plus I would like to use the IOS camera button as a video record button. I've actually managed to do it by downloading this app that will start recording in the app when you press the volume button 2 times up (what the IOS button actually does when I press it).
But once again I'd like to have it start recording in the native camera app.
I didn't really seen other apps what could like change the buttons or just do something else what I'd like to do. I'd like it to do the same as the Dimple.IO NFC buttons if you know what I mean.
Thanks!
Never mind! The one button can just take a selfie and I've changed the setting in the native camera app that it starts a video when you press a volume button
A mod can delete this thread, or if someone else maybe didn't knew this they can use my information
Volume Rocker, Camera Button, and "Vibrate on Touch" setting all stopped working Z5P
I noticed while I was at work today that all 3 of these things stopped working at approximately the same time after they were all working earlier today. The volume rocker will not adjust the volume and also will not work as the zoom button when the camera app is opened. The only way for me to adjust the volume (ring, media, or alarm) is to go into the volume settings which is a major pain in the ass. The camera button will not open the camera app and also will not take pictures. When the button is pushed with the camera app open nothing happens. I was taking pictures earlier in the day and everything worked fine. Lastly I noticed that the vibration feedback on the screen stopped. I tried turning the Vibrate on Touch setting on and off but nothing, and I also restarted the phone but nothing.
Anyone else experience any of these issues?

The volume, power button, camera button and vibratation motor are attached as one module to the motherboard, it could be that the wiring broke at the volume rockers and subsequently caused the 3 parts to fail. I suggest getting it checked out

Eh not what I was hoping to hear lol. Thanks. This phone has been craptastic since day 1, I haven't had it a month. I wish I would have returned it and just ate the restocking fees.
Pretty disappointing considering how great my Xperia Z Ultra was.
