Help Camera - Unable to use flash. Battery low

Just went to take a photo in low light but couldn't use the flash, I still had 9% battery left, but I had a warning saying 'unable to use flash. battery low'.

I know its not a big deal, but I would prefer it if I could lower the warning percentage or set it to let me decide when the battery is too low.

I tried turning off power saving. My phone isn't rooted.

Is there a setting somewhere to override this? Or is charging the only option lol

this incredibly annoying "feature" :rolleyes: has plagued samsung android phones since at least the original galaxy s. then you couldnt even take a picture with the stock app if your battery was below 15%. now you have until 5% to take a picture :D

3rd party camera apps will still function until the phone shuts off though. kinda makes me wish i would have picked up that camera app that was 25 cents the other day, now that i think about it...
