3 dot menu ICS option... - HTC One X

Hi all, I've done a number of searches and can't remember if I've made this up in my head. But do I remember correctly reading that HTC were planning an update to include and option to disable the 3 dot menu for non ICS optimised apps?
Thanks

I don't know if they are. I read that someone had looked into the latest update and had seen some coding suggesting that HTC are. If someone can let us know that'd be great as the button annoys me.

You can simply root your phone,get the CWM and get this fix from the developers here on XDA.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25063642&postcount=279
This will remove your 3dot menu bar and simply assign the menu when you long press home or recent apps button.

I was hoping to avoid root for a while unless an alternative to htc-dev was found.

I've read somewhere that an exploit has been found but so far no root method without unlocking your bootloader has been posted.

[Q] Alternate Camera Button?

Hello everyone, I searched through the forum and nothing about this came up.
I was wondering if there was any way to make the volume buttons take pictures in the default camera app for the desire. I ask this because touching the screen and using the trackpad to take pictures, for me anyway, causes movement of the phone and many many annoying blurry pictures >.<.
Thanks in advanced
For that youd need to root and remap all the buttons.. try the desire dev section.. alot of tutorials there

Anyone perhaps?

Changing the role of the capacative buttons.

Hello thanks for peeking at this post.
I want to use my capacative buttons in the same way I did on my Galaxy S.
At the moment as there is no dedicated menu button (only the task switcher) a lot of apps - including this XDA app show a bar with three dots and take away from the screen real estate to give me menu options.
Anyone know how I can make the middle button a long press for task manager and use the right button as a menu button (which would hopefully remove this stupid long bar which I find totally stupid and detracts from my enjoyment of this device?
any advice greatly appreciated.

Err....any rom in the development section!
Anyone got a mod that can be done on stock? I dont want to use HTC dev to unlock incase it turns into a duck due to hardware fault (nothing to do with Rom flashing) and it needs to be returned.

[FAQ] Remove HTC One X 3 dots Menu soft button

First of all, you need to have Software number 2.17 or above.
Go to Settings.
Select Display, gestures & buttons.
Click on Recent Apps button >>> Always open recent apps.
Change it to "Press for menu, press and hold for recent apps" or "Press for recent apps, press and hold for menu".
That’s all & enjoy
This was something I really needed, thank you!

Cannot access Personalize

My GF has a HOX bought from eBay. Since we have had it the personalize option has always been inaccessible. I had hoped the move to 4.2.2 would solve this. Alas no. Tried a quick search but not easy on the phone. Does anyone know why this may be or is it a call to HTC Support?

Hardware keys

Anyone knows why the HTC one m8 stock version the keys at the bottom dissappear in a lot of the apps like Internet and much more, I have use 3 roms alright currently on Insertcoin and they all have the keys permanently there taking more space of the screen is kind of annoying lol. Anyways anyone knows something about it.

I can't speak to the Internet app, as I use Chrome, and it doesn't do this. Are you talking about the immersive mode of fullscreen apps, like Google Play Books or YouTube? That's by design.
Although, I can't imagine the Internet app is supposed to do that... Sorry I can't offer much help. Maybe you could list some more apps that do it. What stock rom are you on? (Rogers, AT&T, etc)

I moved this to Q&A since it's a question. My attempt to answer your question:
I've noticed that some apps have built in menu functions and will turn off the keys. The custom ROMs probably have a toggle set that keeps the keys there not matter what. That's my guess without more info.
