Wish there was a way for tweaks like this (another one is Tap2Unlock) to work with a quick double tap instead of a single tap.

I carry my phone in my front shirt pocket and always end up (using T2U) with my phone going to springboard and then activating an app. :p. Just yesterday, my phone somehow went from the lockscreen to dialing somebody while it was still in my pocket.
 
i'm having trouble with this. when i double click on the home button on the lock screen it shows up but i can't find cameralock at all in the settings. does anyone knows whether i needed to download anything prior to this mod? it doesn't show up at all in the settings.

Are you sure you are talking about CameraLock? CameraLock puts an icon on your Lockscreen, no double clicking the home button.
 
yes. that's the only way it shows up. it's not even in the settings.

Assuming you're on firmware 4.2.1 or above--which we know it works on--try uninstalling and reinstalling. If it's not showing in Settings at all, something's probably corrupted. You may also need to reboot your phone.

Had a bad install of Music Controls Pro at one point where half the Settings options didn't work. No sign on Cydia's end that something hadn't installed correctly, but a fresh install cleared all problems. It's worth a shot.

i'm running 4.3.3. i've tried to reinstall and reboot it afterwards but still having the same problem.

I am using Activator with a long press of home button instead as 4.2.1 has been amazing for me and I am reluctant to upgrade.
Same. CameraLock is a hair too finicky for me. Love that it's an option out there though!

My Activator method allows me to, from sleep, hold down the Home button and it awakes the device and jumps directly to the Camera.

I definitely like the look of CameraLock, but I was using current time for the slider text with Springtomize and it didn't size right with the camera button. Ah well.

If you use an icon with a black border, you get a button with a black border. You'll need to either use a different icon or edit that one in a tool like Photoshop to remove the black background.

Thanks. Added that- now what? I clicked on the repo in sources and it just showed a blank screen.

Did you try using the search function in Cydia for CameraLock? Once you've added the repo, that's your next step.
 
Yeah, still not there.

All I can suggest is deleting and re-adding the source then. I just checked Cydia and it is showing up if the source is correct.

Wish he'd put this stuff up under one of the big repos, I hate added sources.

LOL--cross posted. Settings are under the stock Settings app.

saw the thread for icon compilation. just used one from there. thanks for the help :)
 
I added the repository. I installed the tweak. I have always show button on and the others off. and I'm just trying to use default app for the time being. I get nothing. I removed and reinstalled tweak a couple times to be sure.

What firmware on you on? Doesn't work at all with 4.1 or older. Does the button appear at all? If not, did you respring after turning the button on in Settings?

Also, some folks in here using LockInfo have had issues with the button not responding even when it does show--possible compatibilty issue. A Google search on problems looks like it may also have issues with Tap2 Unlock.

If none of that helps, you'll probably need to email the Dev, as that pretty much covers the issues that have been posted here.

Thanks for the quick response IrishVixen. =)
I don't use lockinfo. I always respring after making any adjustments just from habit. I'm on the latest software. I always keep my phone up to date. I just like doing so. I just saw there hasn't been a post in a while so I wasn't sure if it was forgotten. =)

Well, damn. I hate it when stuff doesn't work and there's no apparent reason!
