CAn't use middle/action button for taking pictures/starting video nowadays

tedtlogan · #1 (**permalink**) 01-03-2010, 04:31 AM

I don't know how this started, but most of the time now, if I hit the middle button/action button while in camera mode, nothing at all happens. I have to reach around and hit the camera button again to take a picture.

how do i get this functionality back? middle button works for everything else.

Are you hitting the middle button twice instead of just once????

i know this is the default behavior, this is why i posted because it used to work this way. im saying it no longer works this way for me, and im not sure why.

It seems in some ways this is related to the wm facebook application???

I have the facebook app, but don't have your problem. Even tried from the app itself.

It worked fine for me for a while too, and then it seemed exclusive to the fb app, and now it doesn't work at all in picture/video mode.

but middle button works fine with everything else
im confused

I wonder if I could just blank the registry settings related to picture taking so I can start over on them. What would I delete?

The middle/action button works when select modes, etc, in camera mode, but won't actually take the picture.

i take that back. the middle button doesnt let me select settings.

is there a way to reinstall just the camera program and/or blank the settings on it?
