Hello.

So - these are the cydia tweaks I have installed.


Cydelete
Intelliscreenx (beta)
Multiiconmover
Nowlistening
Cameralocker
Zoomisback!
Weesearch
Music Center
Fast Copy
iPicMyContacts
Winterboard
Folder Enhancer
AsktoCall
CallBar
BiteSMS (beta)
Appscenter
Activator
Calendar for Notification Center
semitether
weebackgroundkill

Would any of these interfere with the volume button no longer snapping photos? It did before I jailbroke, but now all that happens with I hit the volume button is the volume display popping up.

How can I restore functionality to the volume button? Thanks!
 
What does CameraLocker do? I would assume any type of tweak that messes with the Camera app might effect the volume button trigger.
 
You know how when you double-tap on the lock screen, the little camera button pops up? Cameralocker makes that icon stay there permenently.

Also, zoomisback makes it so a zoom slider appears instead of pinching
 
Can i then reinstall activator? Because I use activator for a ton of stuff...

i use it for springflash, bitesms quick compose...

If i have to choose i'll leave it the way it is
 
?

Camerabuttons works from lock screen

did you set your volume button in activator to activate camera?

Mine is set-up in home screen to up short hold to activate camera.

I don't need anything for the lockscreen. The lockscreen isn't even involved right now. My issue is that in the camera app, the volume button doesn't take photos.

And no, because I have up short hold to bitesms quick compose and down short hold to springflash. Which shouldn't effect the photo-taking because taking a photo requires just a press, not a press and hold.
 
you have to remove anything with the up volume button. it does affect the camera shutter.

thats what happened to me when i assigned press and hold for the up button to launch an app. remove it, and it should work.

All right...thanks.
 
ok

i misunderstood you first time,

Do you have activator or BETA activator installed? The latter might be the culprit.

I don't know. I have the activator that was automatically installed when I downloaded cydia a few weeks ago

Well...i just reordered my gestures. Thanks for pointing out the issue.
