This is really annoying me. I always inadvertently press this button which opens the camera application and it takes ages to close and get back to what I wanted to do in the first place. Is the are a way to disable this button alone?

Thanks

Hi,

You can assign the camera button to another application or assign to no applications through Settings -> Buttons on the PPC.

The other thing you can do is in file explorer, go to windows\startup and delete camera_detect (or whatever it's called), this will stop the button defaulting back to camera everytime you soft reset.

Thanks a lot for this pug - I've been searching high and low and hacking the life out of my pda to find a way to stop the camera button re-activating on soft-reset. Always try the obvious! :P

@pug

I did that way, too, and finally I killed my camera, too...but if I wanted, could I simply rename it or change the extension in camera.exe.old, to be sure to recover it in a second time?
