I saw a similarly titled thread but it wasn't what I was looking for. I'm looking for a way to take a picture (without root...just using the stock camera on the SGN3) and have the shutter time adjusted so that I can take awesome night sky pictures. Last night the Northern Lights were really dancing, and a friend of mind had a windows phone and he was able to get the incredible shots. I tried it with mine but they were all blank. I tried as many different settings as I could, but the shots never came out because the shutter speed was too high. My friend just adjusted his to leave the shutter open on his Windows phone and it was really cool! Is there a way for us to be able to do this without root?

Merry Christmas everyone!
