Hi guys, can anyone please tell me a way to do this?
I want to be able to launch the camera in pro mode, with settings adjusted, since when i need the camera i wont need to adjust the settings and waste the moment.
Bump anyone?
Im curious about this too. Would be very very helpful. Anytime I open the camera it jumps to auto.
this was asked some months back. i don't recall all the responses, however if there is a variable which singularly sets the camera to pro, when opening, you may likely be able to map it to a button via editing the generic.kl inside system/users/keylayout. i think if you searched for '703' in that file, you can then edit the ending variable to attach a behavior to the bixby button

Hi I was just wondering if there was any way of setting a button eg. the Back or Hangoff button , to work as the photo capturing button only in the camera mode? and be able to work as it normally does whenever im doing something else~ thx
Hi,
this new app will allow you to remap the key you want to use. You will have to remap it to emulate Enter. It allows you to use this mapping for example only when the camera is turned on, it's really cool app
thank you so much^^ time to try it out now =)
sry could u help me with one more thing? i figured out how to remap the "back" key to emulate "enter" but i cant seem to get to to only work during camera? could u plz tell me how i can do that? thx
In the keyboard config app go to Menu > Add key
Press key you want to remap
Near the Rule field there is a plus sign, click it.
Then follow the instructions, capturing via stylus works great, you just have to launch camera and then put stylus back in.
The app will create a new rule and the mapping will work only when camera is opened.

It's not entirely correct what you write. I already had that app to remap keys and it works great, didn't think I could use it to emulate enter and map it to my camera. So I did what you wrote but that didn't work. I've figured it out now and here is how I've done it:
1 - Open the remap application
2 - Press key you want to remap
3 - Near the Rule field there is a plus sign, click it.
4 - Then follow the instructions, capturing via stylus works great, you just have to launch camera and then put stylus back in.
5- Event = Click
6 - Action = Emulate key press
7 - Key = Enter
8 - Click ok
9 - Click update config
Now when I click the "end key" the camera takes a picture. This works way better then having to click on the screen itself because it doesn't matter how soft or careful you click the screen, the picture is always a bit blurry of kinda like out of focus.
Thanks for pointing out this great feature!!
Cheers
thx for the replys
i figured out that i needed to first set the 'back' key to defalut key action this allows it to work as usual whenever im doin something else, then add another funtion to the 'back' key to allow it to emulate enter only during camera ^^ if i didnt do the first step the 'back' key is just nothing when the camera isnt on ~
anywayz thx for all ur replys, now i can take great photos XD

Glad you figured that out. I didn't tell you that because I asumed that you just wanted to use the end key as "enter" for your camera and not as "to close a program".
I've set it to click = enter for the camera and long press give me the options to lock the phone and so on....
Cheers!
I wanted to assign the camera shutter button to wake up the phone. I've used other lockscreen apps like Go Locker, Live Screen, and Magic Locker and they all allow the volume rocker to wake the screen, but not the camera button. I then tried the app "buttonremapper" or something like that that I found on xda. It didn't work.
I found this folder:
/system/usr/keylayout/
with the files:
AVRCP.kl
cpcap-key.kl
edison-keypad.kl
evfwd.kl
omap-keypad.kl
qwerty.kl
usb_keyboard_102_en_us.kl
Everywhere I saw:
212 Camera
(all but the first two files)
I changed it to:
212 Camera WAKE_DROPPED
(and added this to cpcap-key.kl)
It worked...but not always. Every now and then, it would not wake up with the camera button (especially if I hadn't had the screen on in a while). Any ideas? Is this a foolish endeavor?
Also, the Search button sometimes does not bring up the search function (long-pressing doesn't bring the voice search) right after unlocking the screen. The haptic still works, but the search doesn't pop up. The ability returns if I press the home button first. The same goes for the camera hardware button not opening the camera app but working after I press home first. This was happening even before my modifications and only intermittently.
My mod is not at all important, but I'm curious why it doesn't work all the time. I'm not sure if it's related to my buttons not working regularly, but I suspect it does.
I am using Go Launcher and tried a variety of lockscreen apps. I just did a factory reset last night to see if it fixed it, but it didn't. I reloaded a minimal amount of apps. I am using the stock camera at this point (I didn't reload camera zoom fx--but it had the same issue before the factory reset anyway). Could this be related to an app or is there something deeper at fault? I doubt it's a hardware defect since it is corrected by touching the home button.
If you think you have an idea but need more info, let me know. I appreciate any suggestions!
Not sure if this is where my question is supposed to go, I just joined. I'm having a minor frustration with my keyboard, because it won't go down when I want it to. What prompted me to create a thread for this: posting an Instagram story, pressing the back button so the keyboard will go away so I can select a text color... except, the text color options go away too when I press the back button. There's other instances where this has been annoying, that's just one example. On my browser, it'll go away if I scroll, but obviously not in all apps. :/
Main summary: My Sony Xperia z3 is rooted and I'm wondering if there's a tweak I can do, or a module to install, to make Gboard go away whenever I want it to. Swipe? Pressing the camera button? (It's unmapped, I originally wanted it to take screenshots but I can't seem to get that working with tasker or modules....) Pulling notification shade down? Possible to make any of those options close the keyboard?? I don't want to change keyboards so please don't suggest that, it's a modded version I'm using after installing iOS styled emojis.
Edit. Setting up tasker to switch my input method to null keyboard when I cover proximity sensor before switching back after 5 seconds allows me to do what I need to in Instagram, but this 'solution' is annoying and messy at best. Any better suggestions?

Bump please help
Hi, in the latest version of the camera app i can't find an option to take a picture istantly when double pressing the power button. I'm able to open it when using the gesture but the new app lack the option to snap the picture once opened. Is there a way to install the old version of the app?
I tried to install an older apk with "app clone" but unfortunately it crashes on start up, no matter what option i select for the cloning process.
The feature they removed made my life so much easier at work so i would like to find a solution/alternative, anyone can help me solve this issue?
This is for my wifes phone, we both have S21+5G devices. Her phone will launch the camera when pressing the side power button to wake the device. It does not happen every time but probably a 50/50 chance the device will show the lockscreen correctly vs launching the camera app.
Any thoughts on where to turn this off or what is causing it?
In settings search up
Side Key
And look at all of em

Thanks, I looked and the double click/tap for camera option was checked. I am pretty sure we are not double clicking the side key but I unchecked it anyway and will see if the behavior stops.
Yea so i have played with the side key settings and the device is still being weird opening the camera, maybe it's haxxed. I will try to get the phone factory reset and hope it clears up.
