I changed the default option to open google camera but only opens google camera when my phone is unlocked when my phone is locked always opens the oneplus camera. How can I change that? Is their anything that I can change in system files?(I am rooted)

Hi everyone,
Has anyone mapped their AI button to open the camera app?
For some reason it doesn't save any of the pictures.
Once you take a picture, it shows you what you've shot - with two buttons underneath (X or tick)
If you press the X button, the image is removed and you are brought back to take another.
If you press the tick button, it looks like the app just gets minimised. Looking in the gallery and the file manager: there is no picture saved anywhere.
BUT you don't have this problem when opening the camera app normally without the AI button shortcut.
Am I doing something wrong? What's the point of a camera shortcut that doesn't save any of your stuff?
I just received this phone today - on MIUI Global 10.0.11.0
EDIT: Just updated to 10.2.1.0 and it's working correctly now. Make sure to update your device when you get it
i am having the same problem on global xiaomi mi 9 miui 10.2.15
What is happening: Double tap power opens OnePlus Camera
What I'd like to happen: Double tap power opens GCam
What I've tried:
Clear defaults >> Set GCam as default Camera app
Clear defaults >> Set Tasker as default Camera app (with Secondary App task)
Disable OnePlus camera altogether
Sometimes I can get it to work once or twice, but it immediately reverts once the screen turns off. In the interim I have Tasker setup to open GCam whenever the stock camera is opened, but there is always about a 1 second delay.
I am rooted with Magisk FWIW.
You could try installing as a system app
Silly question. I like to launch my camera from my lockscreen using the double press power button shortcut. If I remember it correctly, it used to unlock my phone, so I could take pictures instantly. But since the latest OxygenOS build, I always have to unlock my phone to open the camera after doublepressing power. Not sure if it has to do with the latest build or if I changed a setting somewhere.
Does anyone know if there is any to fix this behaviour?
Working here. It doesn't unlock the phone per say, just the camera. I'm guessing you have it turned in in settings, settings>buttons & gestures>quickly turn on camera.

Yeah, I have it turned on. If my phone is unlocked, it works like a charm.
Yeah, it's not a full unlock, just the camera app. I can launch the camera app without unlocking from the homescreen by swiping the lower right corner. But the doubletap power button doesn't work. It does open the camera, because as soon as I unlock, the camera app is open and ready to shoot.
Same problem here on 10.0.2 for me... Any fix?
I use swipe gestures to open camera from lock screen...I like to use the letter V and it works great on 10.0.2
I use the letter O for the flashlight.

Yup, gestures work like a charm. Doubletapping power button doesn't.
I keep losing Photo/Video opportunities on great moments, for two reasons:
My device doesn't let me choose which Camera app to open from Lock Screen's shortcut.
(only the native Camera app, which sucks)
I must type my PIN to be able to even open the native Camera app.
I keep telling myself that my next phone must have a way to be able to open my favorite Camera app straight from the Lock Screen, without having to type my PIN or struggling with the "swipe up" gesture to actually show the keypad (which many times doesn't display on first try). It's just frustrating.
Is there any device that actually does this?
And as a bonus question... why are all native Camera apps now forcing us to "swipe" to move from "Photo" to "Video" mode, which just slows down everything even more? Why can't the "Take Photo" and "Start Recording" buttons be on the SAME screen?
In the lower right corner of the home screen of my phone, there is indeed a launch icon of my native camera app. But I found that it doesn't work at all. I don't know why. :-(
It works for me. I put Open Camera there. However, it requires me to put the PIN.
I can also set up the Volume Down/Up key to open the Camera App, without PIN, but unfortunately that only supports the native Camera app, which sucks.
my phone has this feature when the screen is lock and dimmed black you can press VOL- button 3x and camera would open thou you still need to enter pin to view the capture images
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?
