Camera from lockscreen

[phoon61]

I was hoping there was a camera launch for lockinfo or an add on to the lock screen.
Something to launch camera when screen is locked, i am using the one where you press volume up.

Anyone have any other ideas??

Thanks!

If you don't use a passcode, you can do it with Activator. If you do use a code, you can use Snappy (paid app in Cydia).

when in lockscreen, i have my camera setup as "short hold" using the sleep button (via activator)

I would like to do this but I don't see camera as an Activator option... am I missing something?

Scroll down to System Applications, Camera should be the 5th one in that category.

I found it under the "anywhere" menu ... I was looking under the "lockscreen" menu. But it doesn't seem to work from the lockscreen and when I checked that menu it shows "short hold" unassigned and there is not an option for the camera...

I have mine set from lockscreen only.
The camera option is there as well.

Hmmm, not for me....

If you use a passcode, it isn't possible to use Activator to launch the Camera app at the lockscreen?so it won't show up as an option.

Ah... there we go -- I do use a passcode. Hmmm, what to do, what to do...

I've added AndroidLockXT along with lockinfo and there's a setting in there that will allow you to "show camera" in the original location.

I realize this thread is a couple years old, but I figured my reply might help someone:nerd:
