Camera Problem
 

I broke the camera button on my Apache, and as such, can no longer open the camera app, none the less take any pictures. Seeing as how I don't plan on keeping this phone long enough to warrant it's repair, I would like to retain the ability to take pictures. Are there any registry hacks or new camera apps I can install to regain use of my camera?

There should be (or can be) a shortcut in the Programs menu but if not then look at \\Windows\Camera.exe and create a shortcut. If you want a better camera app then go get an app called Cool Camera and try it as it will make a shortcut for you also.

You could just reassign another button, say the notes one to activate the camera. Go to: Start\settings\buttons.

Thanks, I'll try "Cool Camera" when I get the chance.

But that won't solve the problem. You still need to use the camera button in order to take the picture as far as I know.

Nope, once reassigned the assigned button works just like the camera button did. Pressing in on the joystick will also take the shot.

Yes. I tried it on my Apache. Unless your joy stick broke you're fine.
