[Q] Softkey Action - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

Hey guys,
I want to change the function of my softkeys. I want to long press the left settings softkey to open recent apps, so i don't have to use my home button. I am on the latest CheckRom JB. I know this feature is possible on CM10. Is it possible on CheckRom?

is there a soft key in leaked JB ?!!

Apex 1.0.2 ROM - Customisation.

Hey Guys.
On the apex 1.0.2 rom, awesome by the way...but was wondering its possible to 1, change your SMS background color and text color (maybe there's a file you can change) and 2, have the menu button in the nav bar on the right side not the left, or take the recent apps button off all together and have a long press of the home button do that and replace it with a menu button.
Possible without changing roms?

For the text messaging, use an app from the market, (go SMS, handcent) for the menu on the right, I can't figure out how to do that unless you know how to write and modify code very well.

[REQ] JB 4.1 Lock Button on Home Button

Since in JellyBean android 4.1 google now utilizes the home button when long-pressed and displays a google search shortcut, why not utilize this even further by adding a shortcut option to the left and right.. one being a Lock Screen shortcut. I bet this will be implemented in a rom in the future. :laugh:
Well, you don't have to long press...just slide up on the navbar and it should come up. That would be really cool though for someone to do that. I'm sure once its in AOSP, it'll be implemented into roms.

Any more than just a tap triggers this... and I imagine it will be built into the CM10/new AOKP/other JB roms over time. I'd really like to put a voice search button down there to save the screen space from having it in a search bar.
Bump!

I would be interested in this as well. I would like to be able to double tap the home button to launch an app.
Bump.
It would be nice if someone could add some apps on hold home button softkey or add camera on left,lock on right and search on up.

Search Key for Recent Apps

I've been using this mod on a touchwiz based rom and it's amazing. Search Key goes right into recent apps.
I just switched back to AOKP and although the mod works, it is very strange. It brings up the gingerbread style recent apps rather than the switcher that holding home key brings up.
Does anyone have touchkey.kl files for this mod on an aosp rom? I'd be much obliged. I was spoiled by the mod and hate the delay when holding the home key.
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you are using the STOCK rom then it's not easy to change the action of the long press home button.
But by flashing many of these custom roms available here in this Tmobile S3 forum you will find many
custom roms which have options and features which allow you to change the action of the home button.
nova launcher or other launchers is a way too.
i mean how can i change the action when i hold the menu button to CLOSE an app.
im on wicked rom
You should be more specific than, look in the mods list of stuff around the forums. Might be available in the rom already. Did you look in the OP and see if it is an option? I don't see why it wouldn't be. Search in the thread, you have enough post to ask there and get chewed out instead of asking such a vague question in a whole new thread...

remapping nav buttons

So I'm on the infamous GE 4.2.2 ROM with the ktoon kernel. My question is is there a way to remap the navigation buttons? I don't like the home button lag. Is there a way to map multitask command to a "hold menu" and the Google now to "hold back" soft button? Couldn't find anything on this when I searched
I'm with him, hate the home button lag :/ I anyone know how I can remap them keys?
