So... For everyone who is interested, this may be a tricky thing to do (and a simple thing). Reason being:
It may be controlled by an app, rather than by something in the ROM.
For instance: RetroCamera has an option to re purpose a button as a shutter button.
It probably isn't feasable to make this happen with the native app on the One X.
However, maybe an alternative application which allows this is possible.
Also, I noticed, if you use the volume up button as a shutter, your hand sorta blocks the camera, making it as awkward to hold as it would to just press the onscreen button. But anyhow - anyone know any other camera apps which let you select a hardware button?
The following apps I've found allow this feature:
Retro Camera (select hardware button)
Camera Zoom FX (a handfull of features and operations for various buttons and gestures).
(There are probably more, but I've lost interest, so who knows...)
*However* with the volume up button, it seems to stay activated after pressed: The camera just keeps snapping pics until you close it or press volume down, or change the setting back.

Use your bluetooth headset as remote shutter!

I have tried this personally and it works on both my Sony Ericsson and iTech bluetooth headset. Both by double presses on answer button on BT headset.
Now need to find a tripod which can hold the One X. Would be perfect with Camera FV-5 with customizable shutter exposure.

a physical button may be indeed helpful!
BIG +1 for this one

I have the Jabra BT3030 Stereo Bluetooth Headset and it works by a double presses on answer button very well.
Hardware button will be better, but this BT solution is also really nice.
+1 for the bluetooth trick. Works fine with the roman x10 stereo headset from dx.
It's fun!
i spose when i get my pebble, it will be my shutter button

Hi All,
After messing around with apps trying to boost system/ringer/notification sounds, thanks to fellow member CuppaCoffee8, i have found my solution and thought i'd share it out. I have tried Volume+ with not so satisfactory results. CuppaCoffee8 suggested to try one of the many free Equilizer apps on the market, which i did and it does really work. Just turn up all the volume as shown in my pic. It's not specific to the music player and really does increase all system volume to the point where it's even too loud and i had to turn back the system settings volume. So those who are still seeking a solution, please try it out. !
which app is that?
what is the app? and you said it made your notification volume loud, so much that you had to turn it down?
What's the question?
Any free equalizer app will do. In my screenshot, i am using 'Equalizer" by SA Labs. Yes, at max, volume is too loud, i had to decrease it.

Nice find! This worked exactly as you said unlike Volume+

Just as a heads up. This is exactly how Volume+ works. It exploits the Equalizer API to boost the volume

This definitely works for me, Vol+ didn't seem too. Sounds a little distorted, trying to figure out how to get the right settings, but the sounds is def livable with now. Thanks.

I just dont want to damage my phone.
This looks like it should get more exposure. In the Q&A section it will not get it.

i am not sure but +8 on volume+ do the trick for me. have you tried the advance setting on volume+? it exactly the same as your EQ app.
Good tip
Is a good tip, using equalizer (from market)
results are very similar to Volume+, even if using volume+ with increase of 10 or more produces even louder (but often distorted) audio.
volume+ works just perfect. After playing with the settings you need to go to settings>sound>music effects> and pick volume+. That will solve the "I can't hear a difference when i am playing music/movie on the speaker" problem.
Any Equalizer over Volume+ works. Volume+ kept crashing for me too. Thanks for the tip.

This right here will solve your volume issues if volume + works on your phone.

Equalizer by smart android apps in the market is what I use. It practically doubled my volume to the point I can't turn it to max. Thus app was the best because it fully integrated into system and music player in gingerbread, and still does in ice.
Question for those who use volume+....if you want to eventually go back to stock settings, do you just uninstall the app?
or just go into setting and put back to music fx or disable volume plus
Does volume+ increase notification sound as well, or just music/video?
have anyone tried the build in EQ advanced setting on volume+??
Hi guys,
I know this question has been asked in other threads about other devices but, is there the possibility of having the volume up button mapped as the shutter release for the camera when the camera is running on the HOX? Having a physical button for the camera shutter release is the one thing that I miss from my OLD Nokia N95 .
Thanks all!

Nice! And working !http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-X-camera-controlled-with-a-Bluetooth-headset-no-hacking-required_id29969
I just came across this on another site too. This is an absolutely brilliant hidden feature if you combine it with a cheap smartphone camera tripod!
Now somebody needs to map the shutter button to the volume keys

don't know, usually they should work..
i even tried iphone earphones and they worked with all features
Use a software mod
Well, I think even if the controls are getting jammed you can use some mod software like headset control in order to make it work according to your needs.

Yes either that (JAYS Headset Control) which currently allows you to control your Android with only 1 button,
or you modify your headphones to work with android:

Heya all,donno if this has been posted or not, but i found nifty trick to raise volume when listening to music on stock 4.1.1. (Headphone volume)
1. Plug in your headphones
2. Play a song on stock music player
3. Raise volume to max
4. Go to stock camera app and take a pic EDIT: You can also just "tap to focus", no need to take pic!
5. Your volume is raised!
I quess its something to do on how beats audio works and limits volume.
Let me know if it worked on your stock x,cheets

Yeah it's actually a bug... And a reboot definitely makes it go back to normal..i found that the volume rise causes some distortion so i dont like it much
The volume will rise everytime some notification or sound conflicts with music..

HTC One has build in amplifiers which amplifies the sound, that's why beats audio works on the speakers on the One!
In the case of our beloved HOX, the speakers would just crackle and distort... :silly:

It's only louder! Clarity is messed up! :laugh:
There's a limit to the HOX speaker, you can use all the sound mods out there, but in the end you can't improve the hardware with sense5 or anything other software update!
Lets hope we get the Sense 5 within next month!

this has nothing to do with internal speaker-i used this only for headphones.
P.S. I edited my post up, seems like touch to focus does the same effect

I was always wondering if someone else never found this little "glitch", i have been using it since last year and i find the sound on the HOX to be "unstable", as it is never the same loudness/bass, sometimes it gives more sometimes less, sometimes it is very good and sometimes crappy, but this helps everytime i use it is for my headphones and it works like a charm. :good:
