Hi V20 users!
One of my favorite features on the Honor 8 is that the fingerprint sensor is also a button that can be mapped to whatever you want. I've found myself very reliant on it as a flashlight toggle, and dread losing it when I get a new phone.
The V20 fingerprint sensor looks just like the Honor 8's, but I've seen no mention of a button build into it. Does it have one?
Has Honor included that feature on any of their phones since the 8/8X?
Thanks!
I don't know about flashlight, but it does support gestures on FP sensor like swipe down for notification pane, you can also use it as a shutter etc.
The Honor 8's Settings has a section called "Smart Key", where you can map apps to a Press, Double-press, and press and hold of the fingerprint button. Anything in the View 20's settings like that?
There are ony sections for "touch and hold" and "slide".
Here's a screenshot.

What can be wrong? I've rooted and use G3's Tweaksbox. In camera settings, I just disabled shutter sounds and low battery warning. It no longer snaps instantly when tapping on the screen once focused.

I have the same tweaks on mine and working fine have you tried restarting the phone
Are you using the immersive mode? Without all the icons on screen. Tap to shoot should work then.
Warcow is right... U have to hide alll the icon in the camera's app to have touch to shoot working
Thanks everyone! That worked fine! Have to hide all the buttons
Now that this issue is settled.. got a question:
Does anyone know how to force navBar to show in camera? I hate how the back button on the camera is on the left, whereas I configured my back on the navBar to be on the right. while cycling back from sharing a photo, I tend to accidentally tap on the gallery icon on the cam.. as I keep tapping on the right side of my navBar (back).
Forcing the navBar to show would be the best solution though..
Hello guys!
I have problem like in TS.
Back camera don't focus.Use settings Mode->auto. Tap on screen and don't see focus. Tryed hide all icon on the top and with them, all foto without focus.
Front camera make beautiful foto.
It's "brak" camera?
Have Lg g3 F400k.
Have been using Tugapower 6.0 and Flash Kernel as my daily and happened upon this issue for the second time, which also occurred on crDroid a few weeks ago.
This time I pulled some logs (attached) and wondering if a DEV or someone can take a look to see if it's truly a bug.
This hasn't been a huge issue, just more of an annoyance, and is difficult to reproduce.
Turned screen off
Put phone in pocket
Mashed some buttons when taking out of my pocket
Torch (flashlight) turns on but screen is black
Long press for torch = OFF (in button settings)
Prevent accidental wake-up = OFF
Ambient Display = OFF
Interesting warnings about improper setSound() shortly before Torch turns on

Have you checked screen off gestures? That happened to me on LOS 14.1 and RR....thought it was a bug when it was just gestures.

"Draw M" was set for flashlight so I've removed it, along with all other screen gestures. Hopefully that was the culprit
This has really surprised me as my V20 and V30 both had that option in their excellent camera options menu.
Got it on mine. LG820UM
I have it on the US T-Mobile version, which version do you have?
On the Camera app, swipe the text (Camera, Video) to left and select more, then you will see Panorama.
We even have 360 pano as well, and you can take a vertical pano with the phone held in landscape.
When you tap "more", all the other modes appear. When you tap the pencil icon, you may rearrange the modes in the sliding menu, as well as in the More menu. I have only 5 sliding menu options, so I can see them all without swiping: Pano, AI Cam, Auto, Night, More. Then when I tap More, I have the manual modes at close reach.
Only two issues bother me here (well, 3 really). First, the More menu can sometimes rearrange itself. No matter how many times I try, it still forces AR Stickers to the closest menu item. This wouldn't be an issue if they'd address my second problem and let us hide modes we'll never use. I hate AR stickers, Food mode, and will likely never use Youtube Live. For me these are just overcrowding the menu and wasting space. My third issue is that they never had to redesign the camera app in the first place. The text-based swipe mode menu is a huge waste of space, and it often thinks fine tuning the sliders in Manual is actually a swipe to the next Mode (unless you're jjjuuuuuuust perfect with thumb placement).
LG should not have jumped on the Apple style bandwagon. If we wanted a Korean Apple, we'd buy Samsung. With how un-Apple the restvof the phone is, and how well-designed the app was before, the choice here is a little baffling.
Instructions, including the in-app help text, are incorrect on panorama. DrivenKeys has it right.
In my case (Canadian G8), the panorama and time lapse mode were not installed by default.
When clicking "More", at the top right corner, beside the Pen icon to rearrange the order of the icons, I have a download button.
This brings straight to LG SmartWorld store where pano and time lapse mode are downloadable.
Hope this helps!

When i lift my pixel 3xl, the Ambient display just lasts for less than a second and the lock screen shows up.
Anyone with the same issue.
Please help.
It's the new changes they made on Android 10, probably for pixel 4 with face unlock features.

Yes its there ****ty ne implementation and i hate it, ambient display only works when set to always on, the other settings like double tap to wake and tilt to wake just shows the lock screen, and notifications show up minus the wallpaper unless you tilt or tap, this is googles idea of new features, mess with the old ones and call it a new feature, remove stock android features because they are better than ours.
Hi,
I have just moved to Samsung M51 from my Moto G5S Plus device. Though i am loving M51 but i am missing my moto gestures in M51 like pick to switch on screen, shake to switch on flashlight, taking screenshots with 3 fingers and locking phone by touching the sensor again while the phone is on. Can i get these in my M51? I've tried few apps from google playstore but those are nowhere close to the features in Moto.
Thanks in advance for your help!!

I am really missing those features too. Coming from my Moto Z Play.
Best option I found so far is to configure the flashlight to left/right swipe on the lock screen. However not comparable to a simple phone chop gesture.
On the Moto Z Play I also loved that I don't even have to pick up the phone to activate the always-on screen to check the time or notifications. I just need to hover with my hand over the screen. On the M51 I can tap the screen (once to show always-on screen with time + notifications) which is "OK" but not at the same usability level as the Moto.
Since my phone usually is in a phone cradle I also preferred the front-mounted fingerprint scanner which allowed me to unlock at a fingerpress and to re-lock with immediate screen off by touching the sensor again. On the Galaxy I need to press a side-button which is less accessible.
