Answer 1

Alternatively, you can start the camera in 2 other ways

1. Image capture mode: adb shell "am start -a android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE"
2. Video capture mode: adb shell "am start -a android.media.action.VIDEO_CAPTURE"

Other information

1. To focus: adb shell "input keyevent KEYCODE_FOCUS"
2. To take a photo or start/stop recording: adb shell "input keyevent KEYCODE_CAMERA"

Other notes

f the keycode string e.g KEYCODE_CAMERA, does not work, lookup the constant value from the API description. Example: KEYCODE_CAMERA

KEYCODE_CAMERA: Added in API level 1
Constant Value: 27 (0x0000001b)
