hi, i have had an app where you can set different hardkey behaviors, like minimize current app by long press and close by short press.
searching for that the whole day..
does anybody know what i mean?
I dont know if thats a question or a response...and your in the wrong section man. Ask in the Apps parts of android probably?
In MIUI you can set long press close between 0.5-2 sec. I dont know an app for it.

i never used miui roms. i think it was a gingerbread version..
where exactly can you set this? spare parts?
Was it a Cm7 build?
If so, the option is in Settings - Applications - Development

For some reason if I'm in an app and I press the home bit it wont take me home. Search button won't launch the app I assigned it to. Help please. I'm running CM7 Stable.

try a diff. ROM and if the same problem occurs ur hardware is messed up and needs replacing.
I know I've seen other posts about this but not a new topic. ICS has very good persistent search. However, I find I NEVER use my search button. Is it possible to re-map the search button to bring up the App Switcher?
The long press on the Home Key is much less convenient and I find half the time I attempt to do it it simply returns me to my Home screen.
Someone mentioned that this mod is available to the Nexus S. Using the Galaxy Nexus I found myself constantly using the App Switcher soft key.
Would anyone else find this extremely useful? Anybody able to take this on?
i'd also find this really useful. i know i can long press the home button but i always end up going back to the launcher and reopening the app.
I asked this in bodi's thread since he seems to have taken on these little mods for us. I link to it when I find it so you can see he's looking at it

I'm actually surprised this isn't a default mod for all these ICS ROMs. Seems like it is a big feature of ICS that isn't fully utilized with our phones. Maybe it isn't a simple mod?
I use my search key, for search. If they defaulted it to this I'd seriously stop using cm9. No joke.

I don't think they should *default* to this (unless maybe if you enable persistent search), but i think it would be a nice option or a mod. For people that use the persistent search it is a bit redundant and I find I switch between apps much more frequently than performing a search. Personally, I would like the option to switch/define what a short (and long) tap on that button performs to either:
1. Normal Search
2. Voice Search
3. App Switcher
btw, I didn't think your post was a joke.
It would be great of cm9 implemented a toggle between search and tasks for people who don't search and do.
Mods for CM9 and AOKP for the Search Button to App Switcher are up.
Check out this thread.

The backlit "search" button on the lower right of the t989 screen gives me no end of trouble. Several times a day, I'll accidentally press it with my palm while doing any number of other things. This interrupts whatever I'm actually up to and always causes me have to start over in, for example, the middle of a long forum post.
What I'm looking for is some way to disable that particular key. Is there an app for that? Or some other hack?
Thanks,

I recently installed CM 9.1 on my T989. Searches during the last few days have revealed 9.1 as the most recent stable CM for this phone, and "hardware keys" isn't anywhere in these settings that I can see. What's the trick here? From what I can tell, CM10 isn't available for the T989. How new do I need?
It is most certainly available.

Flashed attached zip via recovery. This will disable JUST the search key.

That zip file did the trick. Thanks everyone, and especially Elsbb for the simplicity.

i don't know if it's in the development section or not. But, i have an idea to implement the crt-off animation using third party apps.
for now, i have successfully hook the power button press in my application. since i've done that, here's my idea:
Power Button pressed
my app called by powerbutton
my app screen captured the whole screen and put it into ImageView or something
animate the View by shrink it to the middle
know i have a problem with taking a screen capture using JAVA, since it's third party apps, my application must run in the memory, because the power button doesn't CALL the app, but my app HOOK the power button.
You know it's still idea, reviews are welcome.
It's a bold move, but it might just work!

You can capture the framebuffer for screenshot.But that requires root permissions.To run the app all the time make it a service and capture boot completed broadcast and start service on booting.

Is there a way to get my G3 to force close an app by long press of the Back button? That would be a very valuable feature that I really miss from CM on my previous phone.
This thread seems to explain how to do it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36102714
but I'm not a developer and don't know if that works on our G3's.
Actually, when you touch Recent Task button, you can close an app by wiping the app left or right.

Does it close the app or just remove it from the list?
