Photography trigger about itracing2 HOT 14 CLOSED

The original iTracing software allows it, but it requests so many rights that I have not installed it, I like yours more!

Hello,

I have done some tests but it just impossible without rewrite a camera app like inside itracing... This camera app will too poorest.. :-(

But I wrote itracing 2 by sending intent when you click on button... I fact I try to find external app that allow to communicate with them by intent..

I tried to send a "camera button event" too but it's not allowed by Android os..

Sorry, I am not good in Android programing, but it sounds good for me :-/
It was just a suggestion for improve your great app. No idea how to do it.
Best regards.

Don't worry thank you for your request. I'm going to watch how to do that.

Take a look to other apps... These apps have more feature bu don't recognize the device

unfortunately the only way to do that is to add camera feature inside iTracing2 and i don't want that :(
(i checked all possibilities... emulate a key_volume_up / key_volume_down, check public intent, etc)

There is a possibility to do that easily on rooted devices. Application with root privileges can create input events. Tasker is capable to synthesize Camera Button event.

Well, Camera Button event does not work for some camera applications intended for devices that don't have camera button. But it is even possible to send a tap from Tasker: Run Shell, Command: "input tap {x coord} {y coord}", run as root. (In real life, you will need a more complicated task for it: Verify, that the camera application is in front, detect orientation, then create tap on a correct location of the shutter button.

See also issue #32.

I am just trying to use iTag for a very similar task: Use it as a button for Cardboard.

from itracing2.

Here is a manual, how to do it in a rooted phone with Tasker:

In Itracing2:
keyring actions / simple click action: call url or broadcast intent action
keyring actions / custom action: net.sylvek.itracing2.itag.button

In Tasker: Add profile: Event / System / Intent Received
Intent dialog:
Action: net.sylvek.itracing2.itag.button
Keep the rest in default: None / None

Then it will ask to add task:
Input / Button: Camera

Save, Exit, fire camera application, and take photos.

Tested with Camera FV5, LG G3 Camera application. Works in both.
