camera button mistery

[Guest guido89]

hi there, today i was spending my time in changing my rom but i had a problem. i can t confirm the "flash" command via recovery cause the camera button doesn t seem to do his job. i enter the recovery via quick boot app, but seen the problem i tried to shut down the phone and enter the recovery with the combination (wich, as u know, require camera button to work) and...it just works...

anyway is still impossible to select anything in recovery cause the button doesn t work. tried to do some photos too, to see if the problem is general (normally i take a photo pressing on the screen) or just for recovery but it doesn t work too...(it just make focus)

there is someone who can tell me how to solve this?or at least how to flash something without camera button? thx to all guys...

There was a recovery using touchscreen in a thread (can't remember where).

If you're unlucky searching I'll be home next Monday (24th) and send it to you.

Thx guys! I have seen that in my previous research but the fact that i have to flash it via fastboot stopped me...i can t flash anything without the camera button...am i wrong?

EDIT: i saw your guid mtman1 but it seems to have some problem...are you sure it works? and if it fails and load fastboot instead of recovery can i reinstall an other recovery via pc?

Hmmm thats 3 people that say it doest work :( always worked for me... anyway i think if you have to rename the file recovery.img then flash it and it will work

Anyway, you have it fixed, thats all that matters :D

Yeah the major problem were about recovery manager who didn t work very well at the beginning, but after a reboot it worked...your method is valid :D thanks again for the tips ;)

hi there again.

this time i m not posting a problem, but as i named the post as "camera botton mistery" seemed right to me to post the evolving situation.

the botton that didn t work, after the installation of the touch recovery, hasn t been a problem no more. however after installing tecnolover's kernel the camera botton works like a charm, with focus and so on, instantly. so i don't know if that was a software or hardware problem anymore, but i tell you about it, just in case someone else have the same problem.

my rom was t&l 2.3.6 ;)
