Issue with Live Photos in iOS 27.01 on iPhone SE 3rd Edition

Hey everyone, I’m on iOS 27.0.1 (not a beta — it’s a custom build I’m using on my iPhone SE 3rd Edition), and I’ve noticed something odd with the Camera app. Even when Live Photo is off and I use the 5-second timer, it still captures a burst of photos instead of a single shot. I’ve tried restarting the app and toggling settings, but it keeps happening. I can turn off Live Photo and take a single shot without a problem. Has anyone else seen this, or is it just me?

PS using a timer always shoots a burst. Has done for years.

What do you mean "Custom Build"?

If not the standard current 27.0.1 we can't help you.

I'm with LD150 here. What is a "custom build?" That implies you've modified the operating system and if you have, you're on your own as there's no help you can find here.
