So basically what I'd like to be able to do is have a dedicated shutter button, i.e. the volume down button
However is it possible for the volume up and down button to function normally but when your in camera mode, it acts as a shutter button?
Thanks
The camera360 app has this function. But on stock app, I'm not sure if any mod has been made for it.

Hello.
Let me know if you can take a picture with a physical button can be the volume up. I tried to Aebuttons but I can not assign the role.
Can anyone help me? Thanks
Nope, tried this for an earlier thread on this theme and the buttons are not available.
Seems that, like the BT buttons, HTC has captured the button press directly when the camera app is running.
No volume buttons in the camera app are available to AEB+

Hey,
Just wondering if theres a mod/app that remaps the volume key to be the camera shutter. After using the DHD for a while now, I'm over the honey moon period and there are a few glaring issues that kind of ruin the phone, lack of a dedicated camera key for one is extremely annoying.
try ButtonRemapper, i'm not 100% sure that camera is one of the options u can remap your vol button to, but i know there are u can remap other stuff like Back, Search key etc.
but why don't u want to use the onscreen shutter button? i think using the vol buttons will introduce more shakes to the phone while pressing because the vol buttons are not really protruding out of the body of the phone so u gota press harder.
Or do u want the vol button to invoke the camera? that's 2 different things u know, invoking the camera vs using the vol button as a shutter button to take pictures.
true
true dat
I find it hard to hold the phone steady and tap the onscreen shutter.

Vignette, which is about the best camera app out there - a must have - can do this. Though, pressing down on a button would cause more shaking than tapping the screen, IMO.
I want to use stock camera apps
Any mods? Or recommended apps for it?
why not use the power button?

Any method? Power button also great... Just tired to use soft button.
Most custom roms have this option if you go into camera, then go to settings, then Camera Settings (more), then Power Shutter toggled on On. I have attached my Camera.apk that has this option, but you have to push it to /system/app

Thx dude yeah I can use it
But I found that it is inconvenience to use power button since it will make the phone sleep or even off
So the question is here how can I use volume buttons to capture photos with stock rom?
What do you mean using the power button will make the phone sleep? The camera app disables the power button as a 'lock button' when in 'power shutter' mode. When you press the camera button, it just takes a picture and doesn't do anything else. If you want to lock the phone, just press home then power. It's just one more button press.

Hello,
I'm using the International GT-N7100 Note II. It's rooted.
I find myself frequently touching the volume rocker or the Power button while using the phone, either when type-tapping or playing games, which gets annoying.
Have there been any mods or workarounds to, say, hold the Home button to access the functions of the volume and power buttons? At least, I can make sure I don't accidentally press those buttons when I do not intend to, and I also can make sure that I'm actually accessing those said functions when I want to, by pressing the Home button.
I prefer a mod or to edit the system files, if possible, rather than install an app for it, like the Volume Locker app.
Thank you for any information.
hey, if im not mistake,you could set 'hold menu button' activites by using 'simplistic control' donation version'
Thank you. But is there a method to directly edit a settings file just to add this behaviour? (i.e. hold the menu button to access the power button and volume rocker, and leave these untouched while in camera mode?) Thanks.
