It seems as though everyone else can open the camera....touch the screen anywhere....and snap a picture. I don't know if my settings are weird or what's going on, but when i open my camera...i need to touch the screen to focus...then i have to actually press the shutter button at the bottom. How can i turn on touch to take a picture?

Have you tried doing it without the side menu open? You can only tap to shoot if the menu is hidden away and the screen is clear. Hopefully that helps!

wow, that was easy....lol. Not sure how i missed it. thx!
it took me a while to find this, too. in the end I found this tip tucked away in the Help app. have to say that's not intuitive at all!
Anyone have an issue with taking the auto pic by touching the screen and it saving to sd card? Mine seems to be hit or miss. It wouldn't save them, I'd reboot and then it would. Then out of know where stop working again. Just gives me a blank pic with exclamation mark.

Thanks. I have been seeing this on the commercial and was too dumb to figure it out.

It's easy,
Download and install HTCustom from here:
http://shadowmite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2231&p=7890#p7890
In the "UI" tab you can select in Clock Display one of these options:
Time, Date, Both, Nothing or Battery
Select the one you like, save and soft reset.
Cheers,
Works a treat, only thing is it now hides the volume and half the signal status icons.
If i tap in the empty space it does bring up the volume slider, The icon is just invisble.
when i open a program its is still shown like above.
If i slide open then close again (refreshing the screen) it looks fine. but once back to the today screen it it goes back to like the image above.
On another tanget, the battery status bar (Lordsmiff's) at the top doesnt always work.
I have to stop and restart the app to get an accurate reading, that or view the power status in the settings tab, then go back to the today screen.
Anyone able to shed some light on either of these matters?
Cheers

You might also try this. It comes in different flavors. I just installed it tho so i dont know if it will have the same problem.
My Streak used to take very good photos which came out natively at 2592x1944 pixels, around 300kb in size. But suddenly that has changed and now photos are only 640 x 480 pxls and about 80kb. I've made no changes nor can I find any means of returning to the higher quality. Can anyone shed any light, please?
When using the camera there are settings for this. I am on my IPAD so i cannot provide instructions. Maybe later when I am on the phone.
Hi,
There is a strip of very small settings buttons down the left hand side of the viewfinder area, touch the top one and a scrollable box comes up, somewhere in there are the resolotion settings. Make sure you check the superfine option, then pick 5MP option.
The buttons are really fiddly, it takes me a couple of tries to get the settings menu up.
Hope this fixes your problem.
The pics I take with my streak are usually around 800MB

Not on mine I'm afraid! There are five buttons on the right side (brightness/contrast, store location, white balance, flash mode and zoom), but none whatsoever on the left side???
I remeber that being the case before the Froyo update. Are you on 2.2?

Yes, I am. And I had high quality photos both before and after updating to 2.2. It's only recently that this has happened and I can't think what I must have done to have caused it, nor can I find any resolve. The last thing I want to do is a cold reset, so if anyone can suggest how I might be able to reinstall just the camera app, perhaps?

HI AidanBell,
the option to set the quality of the camera is just below the brightness and contrast option.
Once you click on it just scroll it and you will find it.
Thank you so much. At first I still couldn't find it, but eventually I realised that the brightness/contrast menu is scrollable - which is not in any way obvious nor have I ever known before! So of course scrolling down I've now finally found all the quality controls. So simple and yet so beautifully hidden! Thanks again to everyone who helped with this. Job done.
I keep reading that the gray arrow with the minus or plus sign is "notifications off" but I don't see a toggle to turn it on or off. It's not in the pull down menu, even if I go right or left. Tmobile and others seem to have it, so maybe AT&T doesn't have the toggle? Where is the setting to turn it on or off?
Looks like this

I asked twice and no one helped. They just said it was there, look. Are people just going to ignore me?
edit: it was moved, sorry good sir, but I asked on other forums (international galaxy s 3) and they didn't say anything.
What do you see when you access the notification menu with the toggles ?

Nothing, no notifications. I think it changes when I get one, shows a + instead of a - sign. But I rebooted it and it went away. Not sure why it came up in the first place and not sure how to fix it (besides a reboot)
When I installed the chrome browser and did the login the plus thing happened to me too. And when I pulled down the notification bar I was able to click on the plus arrow and it took me to a password login area. Hope that helps bro.

I know that I get the + icon when I have a crap load of notifications (not enough room to show all icons in the status bar). Not sure about the -. Maybe it wants you to hurry up and clear some notifications?
I used to use the camera normally,
A few days ago, the camera started to get like this:

Anyone know how to fix it?

It's a hardware problem, you will have to RMA. There are plenty of threads about this in Q&A.

Open your camera program. See bad green screen or something unrecognizable. Open Options. Change quality to 3 Mps. Change sides to 16/9. Turn focus to "far away" (not auto). Press by your finger to back camera with some power for 5-7 seconds. Move finger away. If it's - have a fun! If it's not - press again. Open Options. Change quality and sides back for your pleasure. When you make photos you can turn on "Auto focus", but when you turn off camera program you should change in options focus to "far away" (not auto). I hope it will be fixed in Andriod 4.0.4.

I just switched from Mi Max3 to black shark 3 pro.
For Mi Max 3, when I got notification while the screen was turned off. I got the information of that notification right away as in the picture. It's very convenient. Just glance at the screen and get information.
But for BS 3pro, when I got notification while the screen was turned off. It just make a sound and show only the black screen with fingerprint icon as I called "first lock screen".
I have to press power button or unlock it first to see information which is not convenient at all when compare to Mi Max3.
Is there any way to remove first lock screen? Please help.
And you can turn on raise to wake.

Thank you. But I still have to raise the phone. Is there any way to just "glance" at the information. 555
Already got used to the lazy way with mi max3.
how about always on screen. you can set it to recognise your face with face unlock and show your notifications or bring you straight to the home screen.
