Camera with power button - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Can I us power button as a camera button I'm running aokp maguro b36
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Yes you can.
Open the Camera app and click the settings button twice and turn "Power Shutter" on.

I tried that and the feature is not working on my phone.

Same here, just deal with it.

After changing the setting, exit the app and reopen it.

I also noticed you can't hold the button down for too long or the power menu pops up. Just press it once.

Shut your face you deal with yourself

Lol, I'm not the one complaining about a camera button replacement.

I was just asking why. Why do you come in Q%A to read it then. Get a life go get a iPhone that's were you belong.

Big words from someone that can't differentiate where from were. Stop worrying about a camera button, go read up on what you missed in middle school instead.

re: camera with power button
Got my Lumia 900 today and although the build quality is pretty great, the buttons on the side of the device are a bit loose and cause a little rattle. Anyone else notice this? If you tap the phone, you can hear a little rattle as well because of the buttons.

How would we know? We own Galaxy Nexuses (or Nexii?).

How do you know your nexus has focused while taking shots?

I can't get used to the galaxy nexus camera, my previous phone was a galaxy s ii and while I was taking pictures all I had to do was hold down the shutter button and then it focused and I knew it dis because the viewfinder turned green, now on the nexus holding down the shutter button does not focus, it just takes the shot, to focus I have to let the phone settle for a few seconds and watch it try to focus, but it doesn't get it right quite a few times, there's no way of activating manual focus? To make things worse the viewfinder is always white, it never turns green so I find myself taking the same picture 3 times to choose the best one later :/

Yes, touch the screen and it focuses on whatever you touched.

Just click on what you want to focus on. It will continually focus on that object. On 4.0.4 it uses continuous auto focus. Don't hold down the button.
When you press it it focuses again if it is out of focus.

I'm using 4.0.4, how was the focusing done on 4.0.2? I'm not convinced I have to touch to focus and then tap the shutter button to take the pic, the thing is when I release my finger from the place I focused to tap the shutter, the phone moves well I move it involuntary and the focus is ruined

Back on 4.0.1 the camera used the standard method, press shutter till the box turned green, then its focused and you let go. But it also had quick shot too.
They removed the standard method in 4.0.4 so now all we're left with is the quick focus. I miss the old way too honestly.

Oh , I could live with the constant autofocus if the viewfinder turned green, but I never does, the only way to know for sure if the camera focused is tap the screen in the spot you want to focus and then it turns green and you should be able to take the pic, if you manage to not move the phone (accidentally)..

Yeah it kinda stinks. At one point ardrynelene compiled the old camera apk for us to get back the old functionality. But I forget what ever happened with it.

[Request]Screenshoting like on Galaxy S III

Hi guys.Do you know any way to take screenshots like on Samsung Galaxy S III.I mean swiping the screen from a side to the other side?I am rooted with AOKP B36.Thx
What's wrong with vol down+power? Seems that would be preferable over a gesture that could disturb the screen you're trying to capture.

How could it disturb the screen? You do know that it uses the proximity sensor, not touch right? Its not like you drag you hand on the screen.

Nope, had no idea. I'd still prefer the button method though. Knowing me, I'd look like a fool waving my hand around over my phone :/
On aokp press and hold power button and then press screenshot.

Sorry my english is not good.
On AOKP, you can also do the power/volume down.

Fire up Voice Actions and say "Take a screenshot".

How to fix clicky home button?? SOS

I have a clicky home button. It kinda is like a two stage button. Its very clicky and not soft and smooth like the power button and volume buttons. If I were to describe the sound it almost sounds like there is a little piece of sand stuck under the button and every time you press it, the button hits it. How would I go about fixing this? I bought the phone off craigslist so could I just go into the T-Mobile store and get a replacement? Or is there a way to fix it? Any help would be AWESOME

That's the noise the button makes.
Seriously?

No it is not smart ass. I've had other Samsung devices with the same button. It is not how its supposed to sound. And it does not happen every time I press it. Usually on the left or right side it does

Mine makes a clicky sound. Everyone I know with a S4 had the same click sound.

In my opinion the build quality is inconsistent. I've bought 3 of them and one had a defective power button (i.e., recessed slightly and difficult to press). If you think something is wrong with your home key go to the store and compare to their demo phones. If there is a real problem with your phone they will tell you your options for getting warranty service.

I just checked 3 different m919s, they all make a click sound on the home key. the power button is mushy and quiet on all 3, and the volume buttons are just in between if you can hear beyond the beeping.
if you're sure something has creeped in there, have you tried taking some dust off to your phone?

How can it be the same button on a DIFFERENT Samsung device?
SOS!!!!!!!!
My girlfriend S4 has the same problem but my S4 is fine. I guess there's no fix.
I've got a little home button sticker on mine that came with my Spigen case. Doesn't really make much of a click.
Had this on my 2nd one. Its like the button kinda gets stuck a bit then it clicks. It just started doing it. My 3rd replacement is fine. Hopefully it stays that way.

This is normal?

I took apart my Galaxy Nexus to fix the charging port, and upon putting it back together I realized that the volume down key no longer functions. The volume up key is still functional however. Is there an easy fix?

Mod for power through volume button

Hey guys,
My friend spilled grand marnier on phone and now my power button doesn't work. I'm on a ROM that doesn't have screen wake by volume buttons, but is there a mod to put this in, or an app to use instead? I'm afraid to flash without a working power button and my wife's upgrade is in march so I'll have to tough it out till she gets her new phone and I take my incredible back. Thanks to anyone with any suggestions. I greatly appreciate it.

Something similar happened to me when it rained and the phone got drenched. The safest route is to use a hair dryer near the power button wait for it to dry out from the inside then try again. The contact button in the power strip doesn't work when wet.

Yeah I was going to but grand mariner is really syrupy and I think that's the major problem. This has been a problem for the past couple weeks, and been getting progressively worse. Now it won't work at all. Thanks though for the suggestion.

Try cleaning the contact off with a qtip and some rubbing alcohol

Changing Rom's can also be an option.
But you can also try using many apps to turn screen on or off by touching screen or waving hand over proximity sensor.
Eg.
I use:
PGM aka touch control:
Wake screen up with double tap or swipe up like BB10.
Screen off:
Program pie button to turn off screen.
Thank you both for your suggestions. I will try both of them.
