Can’t use Live Photo because there is no live button.

Live Photo isn't an option you select like Photo, Square, Pano, etc. When you have photo selected look at the very top center. You should see a ring of 3 circles with the outermost one dotted. If there is a line through it then Live Photos is turned off. Press the button and it should turn orange. Once it is orange, take a photo as you normally would and it will be a live photo.

Hey, JesterMin.
After reviewing your post, it appears that you're unable to take Live Photos as the button isn't available. I'm happy to help.
Take and edit Live Photos -- If the Camera application is set to photo mode and you're not seeing the Live Photos button, continue to the next steps.
Force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- First, force close the Camera application if it's open, then --Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- Restart your iPhone. Once it's returned to the Home screen, test the issue.
How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch -- If restarting your phone didn't resolve the issue, please be sure to have a fresh backup to keep your personal information safe. In order to back up your Health data, the backup needs to be encrypted. iCloud does this automatically, but iTunes doesn't. If you'd like to use iTunes to back up your phone, refer to this article: About encrypted backups in iTunes
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- Even though the title of the article isn't specific to your issue, the section titled "Put your device in recovery mode and set it up again" will walk you through all the steps to reinstall the iOS software on your device. Test the issue once your phone has returned to the Home screen.
Let me know how that goes.
Take care!
