Camera button on Xperia 10 iii

[Crash]

Hi All,
I put SFOS 4.5 on an xperia 10 iii without bothering to use it in loathsome Android for anything other than getting the IMEI.

The handset has four hardware buttons down its right-side:

• 2x volume buttons
• Power button + fingerprint reader
• Camera button (or I assume that’s what it is).

The camera button doesn’t respond to any kind of press.

Is it implemented in SFOS (fine if not), or is it a hardware problem on that handset, does anyone know?

It is not a Camera button but Google Assistant button (useless on SFOS). There is a thread with several different methods to make use of that button:

Xperia 10 iii: make Google assistant button a camera trigger

Just an idea (since the Xperia 10 ii is told to be the next supported device): the Xperia 10 iii has an otherwise useless Google assistent button. It would be great making it a camera trigger button with SFOS The camera trigger button is great for one hand shooting (I loved it on the Xperia X and XA2) and a feature I am missing with the Xperia 10 / 10 ii.

This is great.
I’ll have a read of this…

Can’t believe I’ve survived all these years without a “google assistant” button on my phone.

I myself use the patched mce to use the button as a flashlight, works great.
