Is it normal that the camera seems to move a bit when you're holding the G3 still taking a picture.
Not sure how to describe it, seems like the image I'm seeing on the camera app is bouncing very slowly when holding camera still.
It is because of the OIS. It stabilizes the camera, so that is why it seems that the picture is moving.

If any hardware developers read these threads can you PLEASE put a button/switch on the phone that locks all the other buttons other than the camera release?
I was at a concert the other night and I wanted to take a picture or two. I pressed the camera button to go into that mode and changed all the settings to the way I wanted then when I brought the phone up to take a picture I pressed the inconvenient "back" button on my Focus. ARGH! I had to go back into the camera mode again, redo all the settings again and once again, pressed the "back" button AGAIN! It was pretty embarrassing that I had to keep bringing up the camera mode then redo the settings over and over again. This happened not once or twice but throughout the night. If that's a feature that Microsoft wants, then I think it's a crappy one. I finally got fed up and just enjoyed the concert. Maybe that's why they made things so inconvenient.
Can we have at least physical buttons instead of "buttons" that need to be pushed instead of ones that only take a swipe of a finger to activate?
Sounds pretty familiar
capacitive buttons are ****. hopefully with mango you can save camera settings though
I don't know did exactly did this happened, but it's quite a long time.
The sofkeys of my defy are endlessly lit!!! Even if the phone is off/locked/whatever they are lit, at least when there's the battery inside. They are really dimmed though. I think it's the main cause of my battery drain problem.
They also flashes when the phone is off and when I press (not long-press) the power button.
This happens with ANY ROM I installed (LiquidArc, CM7, WIUI,etc)
I'm getting pretty scared that my softkeys' LED get burnt and don't light up anymore
Like I said, they are extremely dimmed and only noticeable in complete dark, And I can't take photos..
Hi all,
My wife's G3 power button isn't working. The volume buttons are though which I find a bit odd. In order to turn on the phone you have to plug it in and unplug it during the battery load process to turn it on. I saw a couple other similar threads on this but the lg pc suite didn't work
I did open up the phone and replace the screen. I have also cleaned the contacts and used my power button (I have a G3 as well) to try to fix hers and it didn't work which seems like it could be a software issue or something that isn't connected properly inside the phone itself.
Any ideas?
Hardware
I think you have similar problem like I have . If you opened the phone in that area where the camera is(the front camera flex cable), there are small , very small parts , in my case I wasn't carefuly and one is now missing when I tried to take of the front camera ,I broke one just one little piece(very little) AND THE VOLUME DOWN is not working anymore .Take a look if you have all that parts. And if you are also missing one that's the similar damage. Micro soldering could help in your case. Sorry for my english.
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?
Is there any way we can slide the camera shutter button to zoom in and out? I recall this was an option on the s9 but doesn't seem to be there on the note 10 plus. Using 2 fingers is not possible in some occasions.

To zoom in and out, ( as far as i remember with my previous Note's) i used the volume button to zoom.
On my Note 10 +, i still have it set to zoom with volume.
At least the volume is a good alternative option to the shutter button ?
True. But I still cannot do that with one hand

Ha, with me,
I'm to "scared" to hold phone with one hand and take a picture.!
If i have to hold it with one hand,
eg if I've been working on my car and hands are greasy, oily .. etc. i normally say the magic words like "cheese", "capture " etc . Voice capture works most of the time for me.!
Ok, video recording, etc, i seldom use.
Good luck.
Yup. But I've installed a ring on the case so one handed is fine. Point is, I need a quick way of zooming. Thx anyways for your suggestions
Ok. So I finally browsed and figured out that the 3 fixed zoom options in camera mode can be used to slide in and out for zoom options.
You can't use the shutter button. However now you just press and hold on the zoom arrows, and then slide to where you want to zoom.
