Question quick gesture or key press for flash light - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Hi, anyone know a gesture or a button combination to turn the flash light on and off.
On oneplus 8t, when the screen is off you just draw a the letter "V" to turn the flash light on and off quickly.
Any feature like that on Samsung s22 Ultra without having to unlock the phone?

Go to side key setting in advanced features, There you can use double click on side button to activate flash. Just choose the flash as the app you want to open. As default double click is to quick launch the camera, but you can choose any other app

Long press home butron

I had to factory reset my phone, but now when I long press my home button when screen is off, it doesn't unlock the phone. I need it when I'm in my vehicle and don't want to use my finger sensor. How do I get it working again?
Thanks
I think you go into settings then display then nav bar and tap unlock with home button..
Genius!! Thank you!
Now how about getting that button to show vs not being able to see it?

Ok I have to turn in the AOD and set it to show the home button.
Is it possible to add a widget to enable you to turn off fingerprint / security quickly rather than having to go through settings?

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.

Best option to long press or double tap to sleep

Hi guys. What do you think is the best option to lock the phone without using physical buttons?
Only renovate ice has a sort of rom control which allow to customize buttons. But that rom development being discontinued, i am searching for an alternative on pie as well
You can use Nova Launcher and easily set a gesture to activate screen lock. In my case, i have set double tap on homescreen to lock.
thank you, it is not the same exact way of locking screen just because you have to be into homescreen in order to do those gestures. Rom control let you lock while you are in apps.
By the way it is useful and better than nothing. Also, there is a an option that uses root to lock directly the screen instead of working around with a black screen and waiting for the system to lock it. Thank you very much!
I use softkey edge, you only have to swipe and press lock.
You can use badlock, one hand operation. There're a lot of options.

Quick launch camera from lockscreen

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.

Way to add flashlight to lockscreen or gestures?

As title says. I have been looking all over to do this somehow on my note20 ultra, and None of what I have come across works.
There is a preselected list of widgets to add to lock screen, cannot add anything new.
And same with the gestures.
Is there just No way of doing this either of those ways, or am I missing something?
1. As of saying about gestures for flashlight in samsung,
There is a way to turn on flashlight by press and hold power bottom and then click on side key settings<open app< torch, that will enable you to turn on flashlight by clicking two times 'power bottom'.
But you have to be quick in clicking and just two times click.
If you click three times that will call emergency number of your reign.
2. In the case of lock screen:-
-> Swipe down with fingers then click on settings icon,
-> Swipe down and look for lock screen, click on it,
-> Swipe all the way down and click on shortcuts,
-> Turn it on if its off,
-> Then choose which side you want, to open flashlight,
-> Choose torch.
This will enable you to turn on flahlight by swiping in any direction from torch icon.

Neither of those methods are working for me. Double clicking the power button ooens the camera.
Power + middle is screenshot.
Power + top does nothing.
For the lock screen. I dint have any optio. For shortcuts. The screenshot shiws all thats available to try and change anyrhing available there.
After messing around with it. I remembered womthing about changing the side key functions. I was able to change the double click for camera to make it open flashlight instead.
Thank you for the help
1. Again hold power botton and than click on side key settings< click on open apps and then click on settings icon on the right side of open apps choose torch (first app).
