Camera opened from AI button doesn't save? - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers

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

[Q] Volume to take pictures REQ

Hi all,
i would like to know if there is a way to assign the volume button to take pictures. the thing is that my camera button is completely broke ....
If its something that requires some time on your parts i am willing to pay you paypal gift ....
Or if you know of an app that can let me take pic by touching the screen instead of the button
As it happens, I *do* know of such an app! It's called "Camera" and is already installed on your phone!
Seriously, just go to Settings -> Applications -> Pictures + Camera, and select the very top-most option. This feature was added in Mango.
I saw the option this morning in the mango update thank you
the thing is now i can take picture but cant use the camcorder so the offer for a tuto/apps/whatever to make the volume button act as the camera button is still up .... i will pay you
Thank you for your response
You can tap the screen to take pictures without an app. Just tap it twice.
I think you can do the same thing in camcorder mode...I'll have to double-check.
I tried with double tap and it doesn't work

The top most option is to tap the screen to take the picture not the volume button right? Just wanted to make sure if I'm missing something.
Correct, and that's (one of the the things) a solution to the OP's problem.
Anyone ... like i said taping the screen work for the camera but not for the camcorder.

double click power button to open camera in pro mode S8?

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

one touch camera

I recently switched from Honor 7 to Honor View 10.
On H7 i had configured it that when the phone was off (or on) that i touch the button on the left and the camera went on right away.
very handy if you want to take a quick snap of your cats doing something silly
well, the H10 doesnt have a button on the left . and i went through all the phone settings if you can configure anything for a one touch of another button or a voice command to start the camera right away. but i didnt find anything.
now i have to unlock the phone with fingerprint,face or voice command and then tap on the camera icon. Takes way too long and the situation/funny moment etc passed.
Is there any way to quick start the camera?
Go to camera, open settings by sliding your finger from right to left. Tap the last option called "Ultra Snapshot" and check the first option to open the camera and take a quick snap by double tapping the volume Down button. Take a look at the screen shots below.

Sony screenshot function ruined in Android 11

What just happened? Well it seems Sony (or Google) have managed to make taking a screenshot a lottery when pressing and holding the power button.
Before you would get a nice little screenshot button beside the power button while still being able to view what's on the screen.
Now screen goes black (seriously?) and a screenshot button appears at the top of the phone. Good luck taking a screenshot of a video or something similar, it's pure lottery.
Also before you got a sub menu after the screenshot was taken for a quick delete, edit etc and now Sony have managed to cover up the delete option with a mini picture of what's just been screenshot.
Pretty poor Sony, massive stuff up!
Or is it just me?
Well that's 2 posts I've seen to put me off 11 already . This does sound pretty poor. I use the power button screenshot feature a lot.
Does the Google assistant screenshot option work any better? Have to hold the home soft button and choose Share Screenshot for that one. For some reason pressing the dedicated assistant button doesn't show it!
You have option to go to All Apps View(Running apps pressing square from 3 button navigation) and from there you can take screenshot of that particular app.
It seems it's more and Android 11 issue (they call it a feature) which, for me, is worse than 10.
Yes you can now take a screenshot using the square apps button but that also freezes the screen as soon as you press it making video screenshots hopeless still.
I now have to use AZ screen recorder.
God I hate it when a company "improves" a feature like this.
Good to know about the new screenshot feature using the running apps menu. I guess for taking screenshots of videos then the 3rd party app option is going to be the only choice. Unless they fix the screenshot issue in a future update .
So I got the Android 11 update today and decided to check out the screenshot problem. I now see what happens with the black screen when playing video.
That said, the screenshot does actually still capture the video, as you can see from the photo I uploaded.
I guess it would be nice if the video didn't disappear when doing this but the functionality of taking a shot from the video is there. Not sure if that helps anything?
The little pic does seem to be hiding the old delete option you are right. Unless the delete option has just been removed entirely?

Ability to take picture when double pressing the power button on Android 11

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?
