yes I'm rooted, so you can send me this zip for cwm
I apprecciate for your helping

If you are on gingerbread, this should work just fine.
Your back button will = search.
Search will = Back.

Thanks a lot! Can I apply this for ICS? I can install Gingerbread but now I'm testing ICS roms

btw the "back" button is not working as search
but the search is mapped like back and it's grate!

Any chance you have a flashable zip to remap longpress home to shortpress search? Essentially I want to get running apps to come up from tapping search key.

[q] aokp/cm9 fpse (circle button)

i just wanted to know has anybody got fpse successfully working on AOKP/CM9 roms? i'm talking about the circle button always bringing up the fpse menu. even when i remap the freaking button it still brings up the menu. is this a known issue with these roms or something i need to perform a little more deep than just remapping via fpse? please help as i need that circle button to function to play fpse games.
thanks in advance.

It's the ROM.
Kinda easy to a work out when it keeps happening. If it worked on one ROM but not another them I'm sure you could put two and two together instead of being snappy like in the AOKP thread earlier

This happens with roms that don't use Sony framework. I usually change the button to BUTTON_B instead of back alt.
The buttons are located in system/usr/keypadlayout/keypad-zeus.kl

Uhm, so I just replace ALT with BUTTON_B? Do I ignore the WAKE_DROPPED?

Great,now my home button doesn't work. I made a backup,pasted that backup back and the home button acts as a DPAD and the menu key on the gamepad is a music play/pause?
How do I fix this?

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.

on second thought! something happened!! after flashing, dman's EPM mod stopped showing when holding the power button! I'm reflashing the EPM and will check again!
Ahhh! I see.. both your mod and dmans EPM mod flashes the same framework file! overwriting it that's why! maybe there might be a was to combine them!!

>_> Forgot something.
Flashing this overwrites the other framework-res...
Not sure if you can do both, unless I fuse all of these together.
I'll see if I can figure out how to do an EPM

if your able to do the EMP can you include the tethering fix also!!
Thanks again
P.S. Would you mind if I include your mods like this one, the startup and shutdown animation, and the 4.2 camera in the rom I've been working on? Giving due credits of course!!

Yeah sure no problem XD

Navigation Buttons
Enjoy....

I think I may have some edits to do! All seems working except for the 4 way rotation! The lock screen rotates just fine but the home screen won't unless the keyboard it out! Strange!! It's only the home screen for apex launcher, it works in other apps! I'll look into it tomorrow. maybe it's something in the launcher and not the mod!

Edit: fixed! It was in the launcher!

ok upon request I am posting links to the combined mods!!
i927 mod with EPM, wifi tethering, Nav buttons, 4 way rotation, Lock screen ratation...... HERE
i927 mod with everything except for the Nav Buttons..... HERE
Aquethys, if you want, please add to the op!
Thanks

Awesome, I was just going to ask for a variation without the Nav Buttons... Thanks!

dbrannon, correct me if I'm wrong... but the non-navbuttons mod appears to be on UCLH2.
I've flashed the stock res back each time, and tried both mods - the original is definitely UCLJ3, but second shows me this... (see pic)
Can someone else confirm? I've downloaded twice and got the same result.

That's wired! I will double check, but I used the same framework file in both versions! What info do you get in "about phone" ?
Sent from my SGH-I927 using Tapatalk 2
Edit: ok I figured it out! yes both combined mods I used Dman's EPM as the base and added Aquethy's mods to it. Dman's EPM mod was based from the leaked version! my apologies! it shouldn't cause any problems but I will work on a update that will show the correct version!

The "about phone" details are all fine... Baseband and kernel showing as UCLJ3, using both mod variants.

I forget which rom/kernel I saw it on but it was quite handy to have it as an option instead of having to hold down 2 buttons at once.

Dman's cm10 uses the power and vol down buttons, if I'm not mistaken ICS uses the power and home buttons! maybe a reprogramming of the search button by holding it down!!

I installed the mod without the nav bar, everything works fine, but just wanted to point out that I lost the aosp unlock screen (I think that's how its called) that came with dman's uclj3 rom. Not a big problem, but I would love to get it back. Is there a way to do it? Thanks

[Q] Home button wake

Hey guys. Is there any fix or mod for making the home button on your s3 wake the device without closing the app that was open before the screen turned off. I am really used to turning on my screen from the home button (used to work on ICS) and now (JB) everytime the screen turns off and i try to wake it with the home button, I go back to the homescreen.
Please help !! thanks
UPDATE:
So the 2 solutions that worked for me either to have s-voice enabled or #&[email protected] s-voice and install jkay framework which has a built in fix

I notice that this behavior is gone on Sotmax V8 rom.

hmmm ill give it a try, ive tried omega rom and wanamlite, but both dont have this feature
is Sotmax V8 good as these roms or not in your opinion? thanks

or just go to Svoice setting and enable "launch Svoice by double pressing home button"

on 4.1.2 it do the right way.. you press homescreen,unlock and you are in the open app..

svoice introduces a bit of lag using the home button. In ICS there was a fix for that

Works great! so nice! Thanks a lot!

I tried editing the Generic keyboard layout with ES note editor.
Added WAKE on key 172.
Seems to work but after a restart my menu and back keys don't work.
I just added WAKE didn't touch anything else.
Seems I'll need the Original file.
EDIT:
Fixed permissions and works great.
Thanks.

mispost

i did something little different. even after adding wake at key 172 and fixing permissions it takes me to the home screen rather than waking up the device only. i added this :
key 172 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
after doing this, re started my phone. works like a charm! :angel:
