You cannot I'm afraid ,hardware signatures are different. You can replace the rear camera though, it isn't difficult.

this may lead you some where. if you find anything, don't forget to post back so we could all know as well
I was thinking maybe if there's an exploit which can fool 3rd party softwares such as fring and future skype so that it doesn't search for front camera but it rather uses the back camera. This way atleast even if you don't use the back camera of defy you'll be able to see the other person...so what do you think? anyone up for making something which can enable this function?
That would be a good idea, you could carry a make-up mirror too and maybe reflect the rear camera to the front ;-)
I mean, it's an idea but of course if an expert doesn't have a look at this thread, this will be a waste..
Yahoo and ooVoo work dandy with rear camera.
i thought fring already did that too
I use Tango its on the market free
I've used fring, and no it doesn't use rear camera...none of those apps use rear camera...not sure about tango if you can do video call with it using defy?
yahoo do use back camera. just tested it last night.

Just curious if there is an app that uses the infrared camera (for the iris scanner)?
The iris scanner has a fixed focal range, you can't focus with it as the focus is fixed, so it would be pointless even if there was an app!

You can use service menu (dial *#0*#) and there is an iris camera test, gonna close after a few seconds, but you can check it out.
Yeah i checked it out and it disappears fast. It would be fun to take a selfie on total darkness, if there is a way to take pictures lol.
I'm just looking for this too. I tried it and can see things farther than 1m clearly. so it would have some fun uses if there's an app could do that.
Anyone else knows if there's a way to access the camera regardless if its pointless or not?

Did you find an app?
I am aware this is an old thread, but I'm interested in an app like that too
There is actually an app
If u check latest Steve Mould youtube video he shows how this app called Open Camera can open the IR camera. It may or may not work (he was using a Google pixel 4)
Can someone with this device try the app "house party" and see if they can keep the front camera open during a video call?
If not and this is just an unfortunate bug in the app, is there a way for me to force the front camera open (via software)? I'm rooted.
Thank you in advance XDA.

Works fine for me. I'm stock
Hello,
I just ordered my S22 Ultra today (not received yet) and I was wondering if it is possible to take pictures in "dual camera" mode (front and rear cameras). I understand that in video recording it is possible (director´s view), but don´t know in photo mode.
Thank you!

not stock, not sure about 3rd party i havent looked
Did a search in Play Store and many apps showed up. Not tried any of them, but looks like it is possible.
That is one feature that was taken away...I used it a lot
What a pity that such a beast telephone and camera sets does not have this "easy to do" function, that was present in the old days of the Galaxy S4.
I hope it is added in a future upgrade...
