Hold camera button to activate camera

Hi All.
After searching for about an hour i could not come up with anything usefull to what i need.
When ever im typing or just using the stylus i always bump the camera button and than have to wait for the cam to load so i can exit, At the moment i have the button disabled but this can get very annoying when i need to snap a quick pick because now i have to go through menus just to open the camera.
I found a few posts related to my problem but they didnt seem to help, I have tried hbutton and also tried this reg edit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1577293&postcount=12
But my phone does not have any of the registry entries he is talking about
So basiclly all i need is a way so i have to hold the camera button for a couple of seconds before it does anything.
Any help would be great.
Thanks, Paul

i miss the action of camera button

there is nothing action when i press my camera button.
i press the camera button, and the camera function doesn't work.
but it still has the carema function in the ROM which i cooked in my X1.
how do i fix my camera button ?
THANKS ~!
Did you break the connector off the board or got it disabled through software?
NO~, just cook the Energy rom.
i can't press the camera button to start up the xperia camera.
But i can start up the xperia camera through ".\Start Menu\Programe\Multimedia\xperia camera".
Also, i notice that, when i start up the xperia camera, i still have the "focus" function....,but just missing "shutter" funtion.
HAHA,can you understand what i taliking about?
please help me.~
i think thats a hardware problem, i believe pressing the camera key on energyroms still opens up xperiacam
and since you have no shutter function that shows its a hardware problem
I can fully understand you, I have same problem. Probably its a HW problem, but after flashing camera button sudenly has been worked. Now problem is back and I have to push at button with power. maybe it will be a feature Not a bug
I have the same problem and its not a hardware thing, i got a new phone for diffrent reasons and it worked till i copy my old system over. I dont really care that much since the camera is crap anyway..but it would be nice to know how to fix it..
you can use the app(button hook)

it would be more satisfying to have it back as it should be, but i really dont remember if i messed up the camerabutton setting in the registy or if some additional software is missing from autostart that checked this button..

I want to let camera button wake up phone and open camera

ARCS's camera button can't wake up phone and open camera.
This always let me feel bad.
Like TX Lt29i, I can press camera button to wake up phone then press it again to take a photo.
It is so convenience to press camera button twice and power button once.
Can some make camera button more useful?
If camera physical button can't do this job, why I need it?
I just open phone and open camera then take a photo without physical button.
Like the movie "hotel transylvania" that guy just press physical button.
When I saw it, I just want to know where I can buy it.
Every time using camera, I complain it that I waste 5sec to open phone and open camera.
If this camera button has its real function, I think it's be more better.
There is no way for make this. Most quick way is: Opening camera from lockscreen

[Q] Camera physical quick launch button bug?

Wrong behaviour I noticed:
Pressing the button when the screen is on: does nothing
Pressing the button when the screen is off: again nothing
short press the button in the camera app: flash turns on briefly* , phone focusses
long press the button in the camera app: flash turns on longer*, phone makes a bieping sound, but NO picture is taken.
* it only turns on because of insufficient light.
Any thoughts as to whether this is a bug or faulty hardware?
Many thanks,
Jeroen
In case any one has the same issue, you have to press the button quite hard. Much harder than you would normally on a phone. Then it works.

Photos with phone off

Just switched to lineage and it's great so far. One feature I am missing is in stock Miui you had the option to set the volume down photo to take photos even when the phone is off. So essentially just hold down the volume button and it starts snapping, no need to turn on, open camera app etc This is great for capturing a moment very quickly, but I don't see this option in lineage. Any ideas how I can re enable it?

I think there's a setting to double press power button to open camera.

Thanks but that's different to the Miui functionality.
In Miui you hust hold the volume button down and it starts shooting, regardless of focus etc. No screen on, no opening of app
I found the functionality is called Quick Snap in Miui. Is it available via xposed or something similar?
