[MOD] SkyRaider1.3 - Volume as Camera Shutter Button

this will allow you to take a picture using either the volume up, or volume down button. this is an edit to the htccamera.apk, so this does NOT mess with the volume settings.

Any way you can do the search button too? I've seen it somewhere for another device, but not this one.

In some other post you said that SR Zeus 1.3 is your fave ROM, most stable, etc. I totally agree, but your ICS theme for it makes it all the more special. Now with this mod, even sweeter! I'm currently rocking CM7 (i need a fully working camera, so no CM9) b/c I'm a flashing addict (ROM flashing, that is). Are there any support groups for those of us who can't go more than a few days w/o flashing? (Sorry for the off-topic).

editing of the .smali code in the systemui.apk
requires decompiling, editing the code, then recompiling.
that said, I've never tried to even do this MOD, if I did I'd make it, in the mean time, I can just make that icon transparent..
it will be a blank space if say the sync icon or something else is next to it

Alright thanks for the info. I'm currently using Amphibliam's warm theme and I'm pretty sure that mod would override any theme changes right?

I second that. So much more stable and reliable to use the volume buttons. And UKB is friggin' sweet! Justin rocks!

Found a mod to add galaxy nexus like navigation keys to rooted stock rom

Sorry if this has already been posted or in wrong section, and I take no credit for it but I found it to be pretty cool. To add soft keys to rooted stock touchwiz rom all you have to do is add this line to the build prop and reboot.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Or you could just download "Soft keys" from the Play store!!!!!

You can do whatever you want.... I just thought it was interesting that it wasn't completely disabled and was easily added...If you don't like it or have something else you use, that's great.

Download it, get the apk and zip it in the ROM, or you can use TB to integrate it into ROM.

Why would I do that? I just edited the build prop and it's there...... I understand there are other ways to get soft keys. But I wanted them built in like the galaxy nexus so when I found this mod I thought I'd share......

Agree with you. I am using the same method on my HD2 CM9 for 8 months now.
My SGS3 will arrive today and I am glad that this method will apply to rooted stock rom. Was wondering if this method CM rom only or also stock rom.
Thank you for your information.
IMO this method is way better than some softkey apps because it doesn't use ram and is native like.

will this work on cm10?

I would love to disable my hard keys. I am new at this stuff, so forgive my ignorance.
I have a t-mobile unlocked 32gb white rooted with AOKP jellybean- 4th release
And I cannot find any other mods to the physical buttons, like making the home button a camera button. Not as important, but would love to know if you can tell me.
Thanks!

Look in the android development section. I made one to disable the hardware keys. And someone else made one to change home button to camera button.

[Q] On screen buttons on OpenSEMC 0.5

Hi,
I got a question about enabling on screen buttons in OpenSEMC 0.5 running android 4.2.2, what is btw one of the best ROMS I've ever seen.
On AOKP 4.1.2 the option was integrated but the dev of this Rom haven't included it yet, so I need another way to get my loved on screen buttons.

Easiest way..
Use root explorer..
Got to system/build.prop
Enter qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 at the bottom..
Save it and change the permissions to rw-r-r..
Reboot and enjoy..

I gonna try it.

App-Choose
OK,
I tried it and works fine.
But am I wrong or are the buttons bigger than on a Nexus 4 or Galaxy Nexus?
I think they are a little big too big
Another thing maybe somebody could help me with.
I have Google Now and Alicoid (like Siri but on Android) and with the latest version of Alicoid, you're able to put the App into I call it "long-home-button-press-menu" (idk how to call it. I'm German )
But in my case (idk if anybody else noticed that yet because Alicoid is not such a famous app) there is only a Search button (like in 1st Screenshot)
And after I selected that search-button the normal app-chose menu pops up (2nd screenshot) and let me choice between Gnow and Alicoid.
Maybe sb can say me if there is any possibility to get rid of this app-choser and to have both apps in the "long-home-button-press-menu".
I know my discription is a little cofusing put i hope somebody knows what i mean
Thanks!
EDIT: Screenshots added!

Didn't understand much but if you want an application to run from those buttons than go to settings - system - nav bar and change the settings..
Or choose Alicoid and click always..

CM10.1 Virtual Buttons

I'm running the CM10.1 nightlies and am interested in getting nexus 4 like on screen buttons.
I have tried editing the build.prop file with the qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 but that only enables options in the settings and not the actual keys themselves. Anybody have ideas?

Flash AOKP 4.2.2 JB-1 MR1 Build 5. It got Navigation Bar (Virtual Button) Option. It is the same CM10.1 ROM further developed with more customization options & fixes. Everything is working Great in this AOKP ROM.
For more details go here
:good:

I didn't realize they were the same. I'll give it a go.

Sorry about that, no idea then. :/

Its fine, hopefully somebody else can chime in.
Edit: Just tried out AOKP thoroughly and I feel like its not as smooth as CM10.1

I'm going to bump this. I really like the nav buttons but theres too many useful features in CM10.1 that are missing in AOKP. Hopefully somebody can lead me to enabling the nav bar for cm 10.1

Anyone rooted try "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to enable softkeys?

Ok so I am not a fan of the capacitive keys and I was wondering if anyone rooted try adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in their build props
My past samsung phones used to crash whenever I entered this, I was just wondering if anyone have added softkeys yet.

Nobody likes soft keys? =k

i dont really want to buy it if softkeys can't be enabled , the back button is far away from my right thumb.

I believe LeeDrOiD Rom has the navbar.
Attached screen shot. I've not enabled them because I like the HW keys.
