Is there a way of having separate shortcuts to the video and stills camera modes? I'd like to have quick 1-touch access to either the stills camera or the video camera, without having to go into the camera settings and select the mode once in the app.
Yes. spb Mobile Shell (well worth the money...get rid of Windows default and TouchFlo 3D). Once loaded just hold your finger down on the home screen to enter edit mode. Then click the + button in lower right corner. Then choose the Shortcut icon. hen choose Multimedia. Then choose Camera. Now you have the option of choosing either Photo or Video. I have the two icons side by side and can pull up either Camera or Video with the touch of one button.
Hello All,
Suppose u've around 20-30 images and you are using Picture Picker control to display them as thumbnails.
You can navigate from one thumbnail to another using arrow (up-down-left-right) keys. As long as you are pressing keys at normal speed focused of currently selected thumbnails move accordingly and stops when you stop but if you are rapidly pressing keys it takes around 1-3 sec to stop the movement of currently selected thumbnail.
In same windows mobile on program screen (display list of all installed application icons) even you are rapidly pressing keys it stops within second. I don't have numerical data for supporting my statement but it can easily verified.
I've few questions :
1) why there is this flickering in picture picker control and how can i overcome it ?
2) Is modal dialog based application are slow in performance than window based application.
with above lines I tried to explain the problem facing in my native application. In My application too I've created the modal dialog box in a window and then entire application running on that dialog box.The very first screen shows the icons of downloaded apps n having the same problem ie on rapidly pressing navigation keys, focus of currently selected icons stops after 2-4 seconds. I've also run fexploreext205.CAB which is a third party application provide the extra functionalty to explorer like icon view of current directory items.This app does not have that flicker on Icon View screen. Undoubtly there is some better way to do this which overcome this flickering.... any pointer or any reference most welcome
Hi all,
I've noticed in a few photography apps which have a choice of either taking a picture or opening the gallery, that when you press the "Camera" option, it usually takes you to the stock camera but with the difference that there is no Record button, only a big capture button right in the middle.
Is there any chance of seing this as a seperate app or any way of creating a shortcut for it? I usually only use the camera and having to avoid the record button can become tiresome at times, even with the new 4.5 version.
All the best
The secure camera widget on the lockscreen for SlimBean doesn't work correctly.
It loads up the GUI elements, but then hangs without loading the camera feed (black screen).
It is then unresponsive, however I can exit with the back key.
My second problem is that when you use the default camera app to take a picture in a separate app, after you take a picture and are asked to confirm the picture, it doesn't pause on the picture you take, rather just becomes a live feed.
Thanks.

Flash the Camera Fix located in the thread.
What about the fact that after you take a picture within a separate app (using camera), that it doesn't pause on the picture you're taking?
Hi.. maybe i'm missing something (very probable), but i can't seem to find out if it's possible to have both buttons on the camera screen at once, for taking a photo or starting a video recording.
I've attached three pics to show what i'm on about.
1st shows M8 camera screen. Only button is to take a picture.
2nd shows M8 dual shot screen, on here it's possible to do both, take a pic or start a video.
3rd is from the One X camera screen. On it it's also possible to do both from the same screen.
Is it possible to get both options on screen on the M8? or do i have to keep switching between photo & video mode in the menu? which is a bit annoying if i want to quickly take a picture but have forgotten to switch to photo mode!
Thanks in advance for any help. :good:
That'll be a no then
By going to video mode (press the 4 circles in bottom right of the screen and select video), you can start recording video, and after you record a while, 2-3 sec, a camera button (that captures images while recording) appears under the stop button.
I don't know if there is any other way to get them both simultaneously.
The second pic is dual capture mode. This mode allows to use front and back camera at the same time not take a pic and video. You can see the red box in the corner which is the front camera image.

What i meant is that the buttons to take a picture or start recording a video are both on screen.
What i hoped for was a way to have it like the last pic from the One X, so that as soon as you start the camera up you can have photo & video buttons on screen.. but it seems as if that's not possible, maybe because of the two cameras on the back of the M8?

What about the Zoe option? You can take pictures with it or you can hold the "capture" button in for 3 seconds or so and it starts recording a video.

There already is that option in camcorder mode. As soon as you start recording the camera button becomes available for taking pictures.

This isn't exactly the best option since you lose any ability to use the duo camera effects if you take pictures with Zoe. Does anyone know of any mods that bring back the photo capture and video capture buttons on the stock Sense 6 camera UI screen at the same time?
