Hi, first excuse me if i make some spelling mistakes i'm french
So I just want to know if there's an app wich allow you to take a photo by pressing the up or down volume button. It would be a very easier way to take photos.
Thank you !
Search for AEButton Plus and remap one of the volume buttons to the camera-function.
Works fine here
can you give an extra help with that?
All i could do is to make the volume button to open the camera.
How to take a picture with the volume button??
thanks
Oh, you actually want to use the button to take the picture. Well I don't know
It's not possible... I was trying hard to find out in past but the only thing I was able to do was mapping stylus-out event to press enter action using MobileMagic, but it worked only for taking exactly one photo, then it just stopped working and never worked again (probably until next hard reset )
help....please tell me how to take photos with volume button....?
It is not possible, the volume buttons are disabled when the camera app is running. Open the camera and press the volume buttons - does it change volume? No, it doesn't.

"Not Done"... meaning someone is doing it currently? Mind sharing with us the link to the thread? big thanks!
I think nobody's working on it... it's not possible as the volume buttons are disabled by camera app (run camera and press volume - any effect? no).
yes but any application or script who enabled the volume buttons with mobile camera?
??

Hi, I recently bougth a Samsung i780 (italian unbranded), I would like to use the volume buttons as scroller, I tried both Aebutton and Smartkeys and both are working almost fine.
Almost...
With both the utility the smartphone hangs whenever I launch the camera app, no matter if I use a program shortcut or the HW button, no matter if the default camera HWbutton is enabled or not.
Any other user faced this problem ?
Any workaround found ?
Any other sw I can use ?
Thanks in advance.
hi. I have had EXACTLY the same problem as I have tried to do exactly what you have done with the volume buttons. sometimes it works and sometimes not. . (actually I couldn't figure out what was making the camera hang - u think its aebutton: could be...). the i780 is a great device, basically my tytn ii but faster. slimmer and a far better form factor. mouse ideas is novel but it does miss the directional arrow buttons.
anyway. I haven't figured out a fix yet, just wanted to show my support for your post!
Yep !
Exactly the same here ! Hope I will find a software that works !
Thanks for your interest, i hope some more skilled user(s) can help us to solve the problem.
In the meantime I'm go to ask some help to Alexander Eltsin (the author of AeBUTTON PLUS), but I'm afraid that the response will be the same as when I asked about the the treo 750 problem (no device in my hand, not a lot I can do).
on my treo 650 and 680 i could assign a shortcut to ANY key on my keyboard (long pusdh). Anyone know which software can do this?
PQZ II, a freeware, can remap buttons, works on volume and the camera button as ok, and the camera keeps on working!! plus you can get more then one set of remapping using assigned alt and ctrl keys, really nice app, although buttons plus double, tripple press is great.
Also is there a solution to the mouse button not doing a long press to the "right click" menu like the regular dpad middle button or stylus long press? it's really annoying samsung not adding that, there are no direction keys so by default you cant even use the soft menu button because once you make a file it is executed.... nm PQZ solves this with the volume button, plus the annoying problem that the volume button works while device locked in pocket is also solved by this.
could you explain if its possible to remap the volume keys, using them has scroll???

can you show us how to configure it to remap volume keys to up/down?
Tested multiple version of PQz - it works and seem to be really powerful - unfortunately it is not able to catch the volume up/down on the I780. Any other key is recognized except volume up/down....
Ok managed to make it work (basically I've missed the flag to enable use of volume buttons).
I can confirm it works and doesn't broke the camera button!!
thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!
What version do i install? Can anyone help me configure the aplication?

Hi,
The 0.0.8c version did not work but the 0.0.8 works very well on the i780 !!
It seems to be a very good software, with many possibilities (like AE button plus, perhaps with even more options) and it seems to take less memory
Very good, very cool.
Tks to sevet for your link ;
Regards
anyone experience many crash of PqzII?
How can i configure the volume keys to do up an down?

Configure the apps (you can launch PQzII_Setup in the installation folder):
- flag "enalbe volume key convert" in the Window section
- in the Code section flag "use this section" and add a mapping IN= VOL-U => OUT=UP, IN=VOL-D => OUT=DOWN
PQZ II is not working at all on my device! The only thing I get is a little white square wich opens in front on my device...
Anyone who has a clue how to fix this?
just read the docs....
you have to tap on the square until a menu popup
Hello! Nobody working to map the Home or Power On button to take pictures? Regards..
Yeah, was looking for this as well... Looked into tasker but that doesn't seem to be appropriate for it (was thinking something 'in camera app, if btn pressed, do this)
power button for taking pictures would be awesome!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
wouldn't that mean you cant turn off your phone or on because if theres a dedicated camera key theres no power button
i´d say the camera app should be modded to use the power key, so only when camera is open this is true.
well on JM2 the powe button does something when you use the camera ... it lock every function
that's weird because you can't do anything ... no taking pictures, no killing the app, only unlock it by pressing the power button again
I agree this i cool in the video player
but in the camera ?!?

Selftimer.
Not a self-timer afaik. Even a lock icon comes up. I have used it a few times. Basically when you wait to take a picture you can have the picture app open and then have it in the pocket ready to be taken out, so you don't have to worry about a) opening the app quickly when you want to take the pic, b) having the app open and taking pictures/returning to home when you don't want to. Not a "must-have" feature by any means and it probably uses a lot more battery than just opening the app when you want to.
Changing it to take pictures would be most welcomed. Tapping on the screen is quite a delicate thing when you don't want to move the phone at all.
I meant that it could get practical if you put the camera on selftimer and lock the screen so you don't mistakenly press any button.

ok, but i found this still stupid
it empty the battery for nothing, and people who don't take much attention won't see the lock icon so they will think : **** it bugged ....

I was looking at this, as I want some way to take pics quickly. Home and Power button don't seem easily do-able, but does anybody want the following?
Quick launching app that you can put on your homescreen, that launches a camera preview. Tapping on the screen takes a pic and saves it to /sdcard/$date.jpg
Not quite a dedicated camera button, but should be very fast for taking a quick picture. If a couple people want it, I'll throw it together quickly. (Might just throw it together for myself quickly anyway )

I find the lock function to be useful when taking long videos as I've accidental knocked the stop button on occasion by accident.
On a second note, if a physical shutter button was sought-after wouldn't the volume buttons be more effective as the power button is fairly near the top and you'll probably end up covering the lens versus using the volume buttons on the bottom (this is presuming you're taking pictures in landscape, right?)
Is there any way to remap the volume or possibly the search button to take pictures with the EVO? I am tired of always having to click the tiny shutter button on the screen. I think this would benefit many people if this were possible. Thanks.
What ROM are you using? I know for fact that is an option in CyanogenMod 7.

Is there a mod, or more realistically just a different app, that allows you to map one of the volume rocker buttons or even the power button to be a shutter button for the camera? 85% of the time the on screen button is fine, but for the times it's not it's almost maddeningly frustrating. I also find the lack of a self timer kind of strange.
Pardon if this is a strange request. I got used to my Eris, which had both a self timer and the functionality of pressing the trackball to snap a photo.
Agreed i kinda liked having a physical button on my iPhone
Use Camera FX, you can map any key to any function.

not any key.yuo cannot map the home button or the lock button(this should be the main button for camera shutter)
Is there a mod that will let me use the volume keys to take a picture? And what app do you guys recommend to take pictures or just stick with stock?
I think it would be better to use the power button to take pictures, that way u could use the volume buttons to zoom in and out
App called Camera Zoom FX allows you to assign volume keys to camera. Pretty good app, too.
