Thank you for your post, so it seems to also work on your Touch Pro 2?

No problem, just figured I'd share the wealth with everyone on what I found.. =)

And yeah it works about 70% of the time which is fair enough for now lol...

SciLor has updated this, I'm gonna give it another test run and see how much more accurate it's getting... If you run it with success or failure please post your phones current setup so maybe we can pinpoint what exactly is needed to get it 100%...

Edit: It worked 10/10 times for me... I just was pressing the volume button once though, not holding it.. The camera would zoom in/out if I held down volume up/down but if I just pressed either volume button and let go right away, the camera would auto-zoom and snap the picture just as instructed... Seems to be working good now, hopefully you all have better luck now as well with the update...

Edit 2: Don't try to download the HD2 camera as some may suggest in other forums/threads, as it is incompatible with the TP2 and will not load upon trying to launch it "I was the guinea pig on this lol"

Been trying to get this working on my TP2 for a few days now, but only get the volume screen when I press or hold either of the volume keys. After reading the xda forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=693433, I think I understand that I need to somehow update the HTC camera app on my TP2. I'm running Mr.X's latest 2.5 ROM, which is Camera version 6.17 build 37495.

On SciLor's homepage (http://www.scilor.com/leocameraanykey.html) it says "You may need a new version of your HTC Camera, following versions should work:
-v6.26 1922.1732 -v6.26.2012.1425". I'm having trouble finding any updates for the camera application for TP2. I have seen the Leo and a few other models posted, but am afraid it is not compatible because of drivers. Anyone know where I can find them?

That's the stock TP2 camera, we all have it... Did you do a soft reset after you installed the cab..??

Also, those cameras that you listed are for the HD2, read the post I wrote right above yours..

[speedracersdead]

Yes I did a soft reset. I reflashed yesterday, reset, installed scilor's cam and soft reset again. Same issue. It looks like scilor's app is almost able to take the control of the buttons (the camera starts to zoom or focus for a few miliseconds at most) and then the volume app superimposes the camera app. I was going to flash back to 6.5 stock, but I really am not going to rock that for a camera. I guess you have the same cam version?

Honestly I wouldn't mind just getting rid of the volume mapping for a finger style one, as I use volume profiles 99% of the time. But I don't know if it's possible to remove that key mapping.

Try just tapping the volume button and not holding it, I noticed when I held it that it would do that semi-zoom and than the volume would pop up but if I just tapped the button it worked almost every single time...

-1000th post WOOOHOOOOO VIP STATUS FINALLY- <~~~ lol, well VIP once the system does an update...

[speedracersdead]

I get the same results tapping or holding. Even tried another soft reset. Got bigger fish to fry...will check back on the threads later. Thanks for trying to help.
