Hi all!,
Suddenly my camera button has broken, the switch is out, and now I can´t take photos. I have tried to pre-assing another button (voice recorder) to do so but it doesn't work. Anyone knows how could I take a photo via Software no Hardware? On the Camera display I miss a little button enabling to take a photo.
thanks in advance.
alternative button is capture is the middle button on the navigation pad
THANKS! THANKS!

I dropped my 8525 and now the camara button does not work everything else is working fine and i can open the camara but I cant do it with the defalt camara button so I changed the hot button to the useless ptt button but it will only open the camara not take pics I believe itz internal with the button so I have 2 questions one can i make the ptt button take pics and just use it and 2 is it a bad idea to try and open up the phone my self and see whats wrong? thanx in advance
A: I don't think you can map the camera to take pics with the PTT button. The center button on the 4way pad will snap pics for you.
B: The button fix might be a simple mechanical one....if you're going to attempt disassembly, have a camera handy and take notes so that you can get it back together.
thank you very much i did not know the center buttonwould snap photos
Glad to help.
Cheers!
When I use the camera and press the shutter button, I found that it is unable to focus when I press half shutter. The screen is flashing between focusing and the normal camera UI. But there is no problem when I press the shutter firmly to take photos. Any people have the same problem?
Camera button - Not working at all!
Having a different problem... My camera button will fire up the camera fine, but it becomes inactive after that. In other words it can't be used to focus or take the shot. I have to use the fiddly D-Pad to take a picture.
It seems this might be a button mapping issue, I am using AEButton Plus, but even disabling that hasn't solved the problem. I am sure this could be fixed by a registry setting.
I really can't take the hard-reset option as I have spent a long time getting everything how I want it and restoring a backup afterwards will cause the problem to come back.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Sony ericsson Xperia x1.For any reason i cant make picture with button on side this ceel phone.if i touch this button i only wake up this cell phone.but if i like set up cameras and make any picture i must go on Start-programs-picture and videos,click on,cameras and picture i must make with senzor button.You have any idea why??this button don t work.Thank for ansver and help.Danny.
Umm....its hard trying to understand what u typed. but I think you're having a problem with getting your camera to start with the side camera button right? well I had the same problem at first, but then I figured out that you have to press the camera button further down to get it to work. doing a soft press on the button is used for focusing the camera, thats why you have to press it down hard
Hold the camera button down until the screen changes to a gray logo of a camera. Should load from anywhere on the phone
In camera, go to settings icon and choose thee shooting mode (button will have different behaviour depending on which shooting setting you choose)

new to SE phones?
Sony Ericssons have camera buttons to be pressed at almost very hard for it to turn the camera on. (well unless if the cellphone have lens cover.)
Then taking a picture takes a couple of seconds late that is, pressing soft for focusing, then press hard for taking a shot. You can also take a shot right away by pressing hard but it might still take a couple of split seconds to shoot.
I wonder why they say " Never miss a shot" hehehe hope this helps but if your phone still doesn't respond maybe there is a problem with your camera button.
Try opening your camera by goinf to pics and vids then activate your camer NOW, try to take a picture by pressing the button. if it responds and takes shots. then you've probably need a master reset, or reflash.
Camera
Yes,i press this button verry hard for long time,soft for long time and nothing happen.Still i cant use this button.You have any other idea.What you think about master reset, or reflash.??Thank you for any ansver.Danny.

Hello
Is it possible to deactivate the Hardware Camera Button?
I've tried AE Button plus but it doesn't work.
The Camera switched on everytime i put my XPERIA into the Brodit Car Holder, that worries so.
Bye
Hello
Has no one any Idea howto deactivate the Camera Button or is here the incorrect Forum?
Thanks
First of all, the button works fine for taking screenshots/starting video recording while already in the camera app
thing is, when I'm on homescreen, and hold the camera button to turn camera app on, it doesn't do that
Try to press it as you take a picture, half way down to focus and then full down to shoot just try it and it works that way
rofl, very true
thanks !
