[REQ] volume keys to take picture - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Searched and didn't see this mod anywhere yet. Would love if someone could make it so the lock button or volume keys took a picture in the camera app? Thanks in advance

Synergy ROM does this! I'm running Synergy r64 and just verified the volume buttons will do it. Not sure but some other ROMs may have it baked in too.

there is one for aosp roms.

Yeah, I miss that from synergy but I was getting way to many hot boots to stay on synergy.

Do you mean reboots? That's why I switched back to r64.

BUMP BUMP
Download R64 (or whatever one has the camera app) and extract SamsungCamera.apk in /system/apps
Then put it into your /system/apps with the right permission
Use a root file manager
This only works on ICS TW, idk about JB TW
It doesn't work on AOSP

The app "vignette" can be set to snap a pic with the volume button.
Vignette is an awesome app once you learn how to use it.

Love the fact that we have something for MIUI with out buying an app.
Made by the same people that make ripple lock. Both replacements have very good graphically, but they need to learn that root users need to ability to NOT to disable lockscreen, as this is a stupid way to bypass the stock lockscreen, as Tesla the Guy who made widget locker figured out, and uses root to bypass the stock lockscreen which is better.
Tesla has stated he's going to add sense 3.0 replica style lock, but don't know when he will do it

Not for me it works great with cm7.1 RC1 i love this i used miui for a couple of weeks and i loved this lockscreen but had to come back to cm7 because how much faster and stable it was (also i love that you can change the shortcuts!
The developer of this app annoys me. He always updates his free version before he updates the paid version, he did this with ripple lock as well.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
I can't seem to disable the default lock so this one is only used as well as power button not waking. tried with a fresh wipe and flash install.these are effecting cm7 nightly 146 with Chad's 6/19 kernel with aggressive undervolt.
Did you disable lock screen in CM settings>tablet tweaks?
forgot about that.that worked once I disabled the poweramp lock widget which also enabled the system lock. that's all good but the power button doesn't do squat while it's locked
I haven't used the app, but it sounds like something that may need to be fixed with it, unless there's some setting for the lockscreen app that you need to change.
Multiple people are complaining about the power button problem both on xda and the market reviews. I emailed the developer about it but no response. The app is very similar to the developers on ripple lock. GREAT potential he just needs to work on it. I hope teslacoil releases a new WL with the sense 3.0 lockscreen soon, I like widgetlocker

[App] Sense 3.0 Lock Screen

For those of you who like/love the lock screen of Sense 3.0 then this app is for you. Its called Agile Lock and it has tons of options/settings for things such as changing the font of the lock screen, of course being able to have the 4 app shortcuts on the lockscreen just like Sense 3.0, and much more. I spoke to the dev/one of the devs behind this masterpiece (Bo Zhang) and he seems pretty cool and he said if I/we have any ideas to help improve this app then feel free to email him @ [email protected].
This app can be found in the Android Market by typing in "Agile Lock". There is a free version and a paid version, but I definitely recommend buying the paid version.

Why doesn't it work? Try emailing Bo and tell him. I'm pretty sure he'll make it work. He seems very understanding. I emailed him about 2 ideas and he said one of the ideas will be implemented in the next release and the other will be in the one after that. I just finish emailing him. He's awake!
Edit: I just caught on to what you said. Sounds like its an issue with CM7. Maybe you can contact one of the devs and ask them how to make it work. They should be more than willing to make it work since CM is about personalization.

Did you restore specifically for this app or you just like the stock rom? I'm on the stock rom also and I personally don't have any issues with it. I honestly must of had one random reboot in opposed to 5-10 on Froyo.

restored to try the app out but i will say cm is my home but on the other hand stock ota is imo pretty effin fast ,it might be the same kernel build (number) as froyo, its not the same kernel if u think about it tho u know? u cant use fauxs stock lg kernel on it and i know its gb, but i think they did things to it cuz its definitely the fastest rom out. u touch and it goes, so idk i might give this a shot now that kingdavid63 has a nice theme for it and this lockscreen its pretty sweet

XDA member Sarni84 mentioned that same issue. I'm on the non rooted Gingerbread OTA so I can't check right now plus I'm at work, but when I get home I can extract the CM7 file to my computer and search through it. In the meanwhile go to the CM7 posting and see if anyone has found a solution or can find a solution. I usually get home around 5-6pm Eastern.

No problem. I found it to be too much of a hassle personally. Nice app though. Maybe future versions will be compatible with CM7-based ROMs.

Camera Hack Question

For months I used DlevRom. In that Rom, there was a camera hack that allowed me to use the power button to snap photos and allowed the use of the volume buttons to zoom in and out.
I recently upgraded to Zeus Rom and it does not have that feature. I searched for the hack on XDA and downloaded and flashed the mod, however, when rebooted and used the camera, it would force close when I took a photo.
I am confused to why this hack would not work with Zeus. I read where the hack would not work if the ROM was not deodexed. But Zeus is. That is what confuses me. I ended up just reinstalling the normal camera, but would like to make this hack work. It is so much easier using the power button to take photos with my phone.
Thanks for any tips.

It should work but I know THAT D's reasoning was that it's not good to take photos under 15% and that it was hacked enough. Should work though..

I agree it should work but I followed the instructions to a tee and it would allow me to open the camera app and it would flash but it would force close after. Who knows. I just find it easier pushing the power button than trying to find the button on the screen.

I had the hacked apk and replaced the original camera apk in the system app folder. It must just be my system because when I did this it would force close.

bigfau,
I copied both the camera apk and firmware apk and it worked.
That is not spelled out in the camera hack thread so that is what is need on Zeus if you want to have the hack.
Thanks!

Modded ICS camera

Looking for a modded camera that will take pics with the power button.
sent from device using an app
Bump for same question but for either volume button
CM9 Skyrocket
Stock cm9 does this...
OK but I don't want to run cm9. I always ran a modded camera on my cappy and my infuse. I was just hoping someone had one. I keep turning my screen off when ever I want to take a picture.
sent from device using an app
'Ucam' can take pictures with volume buttons. And it take pictures faster and with better quality. give it a try.
Camera ICS will take pics with the buttons - configurable in the app settings.
Is it really that weird that I don't want an extra app? I just want the stock app to work with the power button. Also working completely after 15% would be nice too, the flash not working is better then not at all, but still... anyone?
sent from device using an app
Actually, this would be nice. I use Ucam, and it works fine, but I would really rather use the stock (modded) ICS camera with the ability to take Shots via the power button. Ucam uses the volume buttons, which works, but you have to have the phone turned upside down (from how most apps work) so the volume buttons are on top. Its not a big deal, but it is akward. I have not tried Camera ICS, but some of the reviews are iffy at best and again it is an extra app. I know in the past (maybe just for GB roms) such a mod existed but one that works on ICS roms (via CWM or Rootexplorer) would be nice.
Camera ICS+ looks and acts exactly like the cm9 camera, so its worth trying

Ok so... I would dl this apk, install it; if I get a constant fc, reboot or pull battery... so after reboot with no status bar, am I to go into clockwork mod and "fix permissions" then reboot again? Just want to be certain before I do it. Again thanks, rom is great with all the nuances of ics/jb... just kinda seems also like battery life has slipped a little too... I was running vanilla cm7 with mazout's kernel before skyrom.
