Answer 1

You have to return false outside the switch statement of the onKeyDown but true for every key you handle:

    public boolean onKeyDown(int KeyCode, KeyEvent event) {
     switch (KeyCode) {
     case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_CAMERA:
        //take photo
        return true;
     case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN:
        //lower volume
        return true;
     case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP:
        //raise volume
        return true;
     }
    return false;
    }

This works for 2.3.3
