Hey guys,
Any way to change the default camera app that appears on the lockscreen or that opens when you double tap volume down?
No. The key plus change app only changes vol up.

Hey guys,
Wanted to ask if someone has managed to set the double. Home button press option to something else than the options in the settings tab (menu, settings, applications)
The problem is, i'm not using. The default browser anymore, also the new browser has been set as new default browser...
But the double press button keeps opening the stock android browser.. :-[
Best regards,

Hey guys,
Is there a way to change what the camera button, on the side of the phone, opens?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Depends on the ROM. Some have a built in feature to let you change what it does.
MIUI, for example, lets you use a short-press on camera button to toggle anything you want, and a long press open the Camera app.
is it possible to put flashlight on lockscreen instead of camera.. can not see options for this.
thanks
I keep that button for camera and enable this:

Turn on the torch using the long hold volume up while screen is off.

not really what im looking for, double tap on power button opens camera so dont need it on my lockscreen .i just want to put flashlight icon on lockscreen.
thank you , any one know if this is possible without dl another app?
It is possible with the app BxActions. You can choose to double click Bixby button to turn on flashlight on lock screen. I use it
I think you can only put an app shortcut there, and the built-in flashlight isn't an app, it's part of the OS. If you installed a flashlight app from the Play store, you could probably put it on the lock screen.

can you pull the notification down on the lock screen ?? if so, hit the toggle there.
This is trivial to do with root and xposed, does that work for you?
It can now be done with Samsung's Good Lock 2018 app, in the LockStar section of it. You can add up to 6 shortcuts, and flashlight is among the available ones.

I have good lock but i am unablevto use thus option, i try to set up with a simple black image as my background and try to add myv6 apos to the lock screen but it always fails. Don't know why
I've downloaded the latest gcam port and it works great on my RN8, problem is I cannot launch it with any of the default shortcuts, double press on power or double vol down press.
I can make it the default camera app through MIUI but it has no bearing on launching it as default camera app so in effect making it the default app is pointless.
The lockscreen camera button doesn't lauch it eaither despite again being the default app?
Any ideas anyone, anyone, Bueller, Bueller....................??

Really, 190 odd views & nobody out there knows??
If you disable the stock cams app so it leaves gcam as the only camera app would it make any difference , Just guessing as i have a moto G7 power

MIUI explicitly calls the stock camera, even if GCam is set as default the stock camera (com.android.camera) will be started.
Your best bet is to install a custom AOSP based ROM.
where has the option gone to open a different camera app when double pressing power please?

You can't double tap power to open another app other than the default Google camera app. But you can set the double tap feature to open an app of your choice.
Setting/system/gestures/
that workaround will have to do for now, much appreciated
You can also map another double tap on the up volume button for example to launch an app using Button Mapper.
Button Mapper: Remap your keys - Apps on Google Play
Remap hardware buttons to launch any app, shortcut or action
play.google.com
Nothing to map soft keys though. I'm looking for 'double-tap' back button for notifications, like the OnePlus 8 Pro has.
