Disable side volume buttons? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Like may of you i slide my phone in and out of my pocket 100 times throughout the day. Using it to get emails, social updates texting etc etc. I find myself constantly turning up or down the volume when i don't intend to.
Could just be the crappy case i have on it but wondered if there might be a setting that could disable these keys for the initial volume menu that pops up. Once programs are running and i need to change the volume, I'm okay with that, just from the home screen let's say.
Thanks!

Permanent sidebar app?

Hey just got my first android after being with the iPhone for like 5 years. No jailbreak, no fun...So I thought I would try android and I like it so far
Is there any sort of permanant sidebar tweak you can have for your note 2?
Something like this:

If you've used Ubuntu 12.04+ a sidebar like that where you could launch your apps and app switch quickly. I am talking about a permanent "Multi-window"
The screen is huge, I wouldn't mind if my screen got a little smaller so that I could use 1 hand

Any updates on this? Really would like to have a permanent, customizable sidebar
Thanks
You need to try a few aosp roms. Cyanfox, bam, pacman, and omni have side bars.

Has anyone replaced the S-Voice double click toggle for something else, such as Google Gesture Swipe?

Voice to text

How can I find what keeps killing my voice to text? 95% of the time it doesn't work and I have to keep reopening my keyboard over and over before it will work. This has been across several Roms now. Thanks.
