Hey there,
I had an camera app (I think it was google camera) in which buttons could be used like in thread title.
That doesn't work anymore. Power button brings my moto g to sleep and zoom buttons take pictures.
Is this a change in the app?
Any recommendations? other app, flashing .zip, etc.......
no one?
In fact, it was a modified AOSP Camera made by Slimroms or someone else, but it does have those settings in the Menu when you press the O button, then the switches, and then the last choice, that'd bring you to a menu in which all those settings will be.

I think I don't have this option. I Have these in Setting:
Resolution & quality
Save location
Advanced
Help & Feedback
can't find anywhere
Then it's the AOSP one then, there's no options like that in the AOSP one...

I know development is kinda sparse here for the droid pro...but anyway someone can modify the camera.apk to allow the side button to work for taking pictures?
yea that would be kinda nice.
Ive got it set up now so that the single side button opens the camera, but it doesnt take pics
Had that feature on my old BB Tour before I switched to the Droid Pro. Really miss that feature. Don't miss much of anything else though.
I posted this on droidforums.net. works with stock GB camera as well as MIUI camera apk which i like a bit better.
I have been wanting to use the side button as a shutter button since I got the Droid Proand it can be done using Button Re-Mapper
You must be rooted to use this app so.... First go to settings>applications>Quick Launch and press/hold side button to clear the assigned app, this setting will no longer work once we remap the button. Open button remapper and scroll all the way to the bottom of the list and click on 246 (Side) and change it to Camera with Wake_Dropped state, apply changes and reboot. This way, along with No Lock app installed, your side button will now wake the phone. Once the phone is awake, press/hold the side button and it will bring up the camera. Now press the side button while the camera app is active and it will snap the pic. Yay.
The next coolest thing would be an app that can reprogram button actions the buttons are pressed/held like on BlackBerry. This would allow press/hold button shortcuts from homescreen without using the search soft key as we have to use now.
THANK YOU for posting this, should be made sticky in a mods page. ButtonRemapper http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 and no lock from the matter go straight in my howto on this phone.
Another thing on my 3.8... verizon latest rom on settings, applications, quick launch you can do something similar to what you are saying pressing search + letter are keyboard shortcuts, like on BBs!
I'll also share that Toggle 2g/3g

works great and with widget it extends my battery even more.
Needs resigning of system apps on droid pro, be very careful and do things step by step adding pause in the batch file..
I added this comment http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17626210&posted=1#post17626210 for procedure with droid pro.s
The app ROCKS!

thanks for this
Is it possible to add a full size menu button much like the search button was added. I tried ICS on an older phone and the menu button seemed to work in even the native apps. I hate the look of the dot one that comes up in stock ics and with the mod to make it appear all the time. Ideal for me would be to make the button layout identical to my droid incredible. So home, menu, back, and search. Hold home down for the app switch. Hold menu for keyboard. Hold search for voice search. This has to be possible somehow since its all software keys now.
Request 1 --
Coming previously from another Samsung phone... I've had the same gripe before... I don't know if it's possible on the GNex but I know it has been done before on several other Samsung phones.
Our phone has an awesome camera but the Samsung developers continue to neglect obvious features like a dedicated camera button. In CM9, you are given the option to assign different buttons to be used as a camera button and this is extremely helpful. Otherwise, you and fumbling around blindly trying to find the on screen button to take a picture.
Request 2 --
Is it possible to add the power toggles to the notification menu? That was one of the most convenient aspects of Android.
-------------
If anyone could help I would definitely appreciate it, thank you for your consideration.
The notification power options can be built using Widgetsoid from the Market. It's free. This feature is also built into many custom ROMs, like AOKP and CM9 Kang.
Is this what you mean by camera button? Flash this, and then volume up becomes a dedicated camera button - http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13899-mod-camera-buttonvstart-and-take-pics-with-volume/

That solution eliminates either the volume up or volume down button. Is there a reason why simultaneous press of both volume up and volume down is not an option to maintain function of the volume up and volume down respectively?
I'm on Madmack's 11/26/13, CM11 build and I'm trying to remap the extra quick launch button we have above the volume rocker on CM11 - basically I want it as my camera button.
I've been able to do this on other phones by manual editing the proper keyboard layout file.
The hardware keyboard layout file for the LGOP on CM11 appears to be: /system/user/gk-keypad-8064.kl
The quick launch button is Key 250 and by default its set to ASSIST (which launches the Search function oddly enough).
Normally just changing ASSIST to CAMERA and rebooting is sufficient to launch the CAMERA functions - doesn't work with my LGOP on CM11. However, once changing Key 250 to CAMERA, it does take pictures if you manually launch the camera app.
Switching it to Key 250 CAMERA WAKE oddly enough makes the quicklaunch button function exactly the same as when you press down on the screen for 2+ seconds and the home screens shrink to the center and Wallpapers/Widgets/Settings pop up.
I can tell you that changing Key 250 to POWER, VOLUME_UP, VOLUME_DOWN, HOME all work... just can't get the CAMERA function to work.
Any thoughts or ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
I have no idea but this is would be great. I hope someone can chime in to help you out.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
hey, decompressed an old nandroid of the stock rom...
i'm pretty sure i had the quicklaunch button set to the default "press to launch camera/press again to snap a pic" action, and my gk-keypad-8064.kl had key 250 set to QUICK_CLIP
Can we set it to a particular app? particularly to display recent apps?
Isn't there a "buttons" section in the phone settings? I used that to switch search function to camera and tested, it works great. Only downside is its not a 2-step shutter button lol.
Hi have you tryed changing it to camera wake_dropped? ive remapped another LG phone and that was the code i used. ill try it now aswell

A similar question
In looking through the forums, this thread seemed to be the closest to users having a similar situation to myself. I have an LGOP running the latest nightly of CM11 and I would also like to map the quick search button to a different function. While there are buttons options to set it to launch the camera app, it launches the default camera app and I would like it to launch the latest version of Google's camera app. Does anyone know how to do this?
Gravity box I think can pull it off

WEll I was searching for something similar, to remap our Quick button and assign anything to it! and I have found an xposed module which can do the job here you go: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.xposed.additionsgb
Guys...for the life of me I can't find a setting for this...in Venom Tweaks long press Home is tied to "Menu button" for me, but this is not that...
When I hold home button, I get the hourglass icon on the display...when I run it it opens Audio Control...
What is that shortcut used for and how do I customize it?

Edit, Ah I see what you mean. By default that is Google now. Looks like you set it to seacrh. I am not sure which setting it is to change that.

That's to launch Google Now. By default it goes to Google Now, anyway. Some apps seem to be able to "take over" that gesture. I'm using Screen Lock for that instead of Google Now.
If you want to restore it to default, then you'll have to clear the defaults in the App Manager for that Audio Control app. But there isn't a set way to customize it for other things, as far as I know. Must be the way certain apps are coded...
Thank you very much!!!
