Hi everybody!
Recently I choose to update my phone to 4.3 android version. Everything is fine, just a little thing is wrong and I don't know if I'm only with this: in video mode I don't have autofocus enabled. I must tap the screen everytime when I want to focus. If I go to settings I don't see "Lock focus in video" option anymore.
Another thing wich is missing from my phone: in "About" section .. I don't have anymore "Hardware Information" menu.
Any solution for this?
Thanks in advance.
anyone? ...

Long press where you'd like to lock focus, and after a couple seconds you'll see "AE and AF locked" (auto exposure and auto focus). Tap again to go back to manual.

Is there any way that i can take pictures using the front camera? Is there any program or something else that i can use to do that?
Camera app from X1 can do that!
Just go to the camera app settings and change from "back camera to "front camera"
i can't find that setting, whaere exactly is it? Can you tell me what to do?
Open the camera app
Press the bottom right button for settings
When that screen opens press the bottom right button again
When go to the top tab and it is the first option

Hi guys, I just notice a weird lettering of a word 're' appearing on my lockscreen it is below the clock, I cant find any setting that have that
Anyway I can remove it, btw how to take a screenshot of the lockscreen, I tried the pwr vol down cant
Do you have 'Owner's info' enabled in lock screen options?
Any 1 gt this prob? Can help me solved
I've never had this problem.
As said before by kiwi45(since you didn't answer his question) see if you have "Owner info" enabled. This can be found in "Settings -> Security -> Owner info".
Taking screenshots of the lock screen is real simple, use the Android SDK, enable USB debugging on your device and use the "capture screen" option in monitor.bat/sh. (included in the Android SDK)

Press and hold the power button + volume down button for about 3 seconds. Then post the screenshot here.

Greetings all,
Per the above; is this possible? Hoping for an outcome whereby pressing the physical shutter button, whilst the phone is turned on, but not in the camera, loads up the camera app.
Thanks in advance
Yep, you just hold the shutter button down and it activates the camera from any screen. Also works when the device is locked and screen is off.
Can you reverse this with settings?
So can you stop the camera loading up by some setting on the phone disabling the physical shutter button?
As it's being accidentally pressed while getting the phone out of my pocket?
Cheers!
Probably not without rooting, but the button requires a fairly long, full press to activate the camera so I can't see it accidentally starting the camera by just getting it out of a pocket (it's certainly never happened to me)

It is possible to disable this feature. I have done this since I kept getting pocket pictures as well. You have to go into the camera app, open the menu and select the third tab (the one with the screwdriver and spanner icon). The first setting on that tab is called "Hurtig start" on my phone which is in danish. I would expect this to be a translation from "Quick start" or something like that. This setting have four options, the last one being "Slukket" which is probably a translation of "Turned off". When selecting this option the physical camera button stops doing anything unless you are already inside the camera app.
Sorry about it being landscape

Hi.
Does anyone know is to possible to set camera in manual mode by default when launching via camera button or lock screen shortcut ?
It's launching as I want only when I tap the camera app from the drawer. When launching from lock screen or dedicated button it always start in this crappy auto mode.

I think such a thing (if possible) can only be done with root.
It's also annoying me, but it's been like that on all previous phones.

well, I just got mine and on one of the home screens I have a whole row just for the camera. There I can pus a little "settings" button in the far right corner and I can select which camera shortcuts to have there, one of them is "manual". Have you seen that?

He means when using the camera button.
It always starts with superior auto. When starting the camera through the app, it does remember your settings.
So I have to wait for some nice custom rom fixing this issue

On the Z1C, this couldn't be changed with root as well, so I guess we'll have to live with that. Maybe Android L fixes this.
Any news on this having root already on our devices?

An update recently came out, called Lollipop, and I guess it fixed that issue as seen on the preview.

This issue has not been fixed. I'm also still looking for a way to disable superior auto mode and always start the camera in manual mode when pressing the hardware camera button.
Hello there, I tried it with the xposed module xposed additions pro, but even after several tries I had no luck. I'm rooted on stock 5.1 and I'm sure there is a way to change the behavoir of the long press action of the camera key but I didn't find it yet as I'm very new to this phone. Let's share experiences!
cheers!
Don't know how or when it happened, but I just noticed it this morning. I have two shutter buttons on my camera screen. (See photo). They both work, but I do not know how the second one got there or how to remove it.

It's a movable shutter button. You can turn it off in the camera options (scroll down to the "Floating Camer Button" toggle)

@Mr. Moe That is called "floating camera button". It adds an extra camera button that you can move anywhere on the screen in Auto and Selfie modes. You can turn it off by opening camera app and tap on gear in upper right corner and then scroll down to deselect floating camera button. Hope this helps.
