I have an Otterbox Defender, screen protector removed, but with a skinomi protector.
I always hated the standard screen protector on the Otterbox.

Anyway I noticed today when I went to take a picture that I have to press awfully hard to get the camera app to open. The phone is unlocked and looking at home screen if that matters.
After messing around with the phone for a bit I took the rubber section off the case and I experimented with the key.
It works fine.
So I guess the rubber doesn't extend the whole way?
The power and volume buttons are fine.

Has anyone else noticed this?
I've repositioned the case a few times, making sure nothing was blocking the rubber insert. Same results.
I'm willing to use an app tile for on screen but I can't find the Microsoft camera app in the store, or in my apps, even though it is loaded on the phone.

Just weird, sorry if this sounds like I'm whining but I need a heavy case because of work, and the belt clip works great for me.

Ok, a few minutes with a Dremmel and some trimming and I fixed my issue.
Took longer to get the phone out of the cage then it did to trim.
