The biggest app I use is Flashlight/Torch. I use it 50+ times a day and cm10 has the lovely feature of being able to remap a hardware key to it while still in lock screen. I have looked through files to see how they did it but I cannot find it. I want to be able to turn my flashlight on when in lock screen. I have been turning it on by the menu button. Is there any way I can do this on TWJB?

I could write an app to turn it on, but you'd have to have the app as a shortcut on your lock screen. Cm10 does it through the ROM so it's quite simple.. don't think it's replicable b tw.

I have the At&t version of Optimus G E970, I think this will work for any Optimus G.
Not responsible for bricked phones.
This is a mod how to enable navigation bar(on screen buttons) , its very simple and easy...
To edit build.prop, on root explorer navigate to system press and hold on build.prop and open in text editor.
Add the following line at the end of build.prop file
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
now on reboot we will have nav-bar like on nexus 4
To disable hardware keys, I used root explorer go to system/usr/keylayout click and hold on kaypad.nl and choose from menu open in text editor and 139,158,172 edit the home to hom and do the same on all 3 lines and hit save and reboot,
Plus I went and deleted all the 139, 158, 172 lines from external_kbd.kl, Generic.kl, MHLRCP.kl, osp3-input.kl and qwerty.kl. I dont know if that helps because I deleted them first then edited the lines in kaypad.nl.

Why would you discourage people from being helpful? If it is not your cup of tea, read and move on.

I'm sorry, you misunderstood. I mean why? As in how would it benefit me. I wasn't being a d*ck. Like I want to know how it is of benefit vs. Hw keys.

Build.prop in system?

Can someone post a picture of build.prop of where the line is supposed to be at? This may be a silly question but I'm new to root, and I really wanna get a nexus 4 feel to my LGOG.

You just add a separate line to the bottom. Just a new line below everything that reads "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0"

Like right under the last line which is Davik.vm.stack?
EDIT: Nvm got it, but the only problem is that the stock launcher
and keyboard don't have the right resolution.
How does one edit the build.prop?
Never mind! Got it

The easiest way to disable the default navigation buttons is by going to
system/usr/keylayout/keypad_8064.kl When you open the file you'll find
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
add a # in the begging of each one like
#key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
#key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
Reboot and they should be disabled, but the buttons still light up. To fix this go the settings/display/front key light Then uncheck
Turn on Front Key Light.

This did the trick for the hard ware keys, now all I have is the soft keys

Odd, when I do this I cant pull the notification bar down ad the notifications show. It still shows the icons in the top bar. but not when I pull it down?
Also noticed that when I reboot my phone the first notification I get shows up normally, then they stop showing. It notifys me and everything, just cant pull down the blind to access them.
Also noticed that my menu button isnt integrated with the menu bar at the bottom. Ideas on how to do this?

I can't answer the notification issue, but I believe for the menu button a lot of apps have a built in menu button (usually in an action bar on the top right) now that they display (it is more of a tablet display, but given the resolution it probably still shows up that way).
You can still get to the menu in apps right?
Would there be anyway to disable the softkeys while the lockscreen is on? Because with stock lg lockscreen, it jus shows a black bar

That is how it is on my JB tablet with onscreen buttons, I think that is just how it works, but I could be wrong.

I'll be the test dummy and let y'all know.
EDIT: Don't flash the ZIP, kills the whole alignment of the icons and widgets.

Are you using stock lg launcher? They said it messes that all up unless your using a different one like nova or apex

So not sure if anyone has this issue but after changing my ROM I am no longer able to hide my keyboard by pressing the back button. Most apps I can tap the screen to hide it but some require me to hit next or something on the bottom of the page and my keyboard is blocking me from doing so and pressing back just takes me to the previous page...I included a picture of what happens

Im on jedi x 13, and have pie launcher working, just curious to what everyone is using it for. I had toggles on it, but the pull down is good for that, just cant think of what to use it for at the moment.

I use it for quick access to necessary apps while I'm out n about on my bicycle. music maps etc its not as valuable as say is you were on nexus 7 but its a awesome jedi feature. I use it without the info showing because I like using the s pen thanks b whoever posted those awesome Hover point icons. If your feeling pie I recommend you checkout a app called relaunch1

why not just show your screen caps?
I've set it up with basic buttons like, back, home, recent apps, menu. I always use it coz it just appears on the side or bottom screen so i don't have to look down to press home or whatever.

Yeah ive tried it for all those things, found that the integrated phone features were easier and more user friendly. I like the feature and idea, just need the proper functionality for it.

I am having problems getting PIE controls to work. Can somebody clue me in as to how they work. Not a big fan of trebuchet thus far. Why no gestures? Why no ability to change individual icons? I'll admit it is fast and smooth, but I might have to switch to Nova Launcher. If I do, why did I flash a ROM to begin with.

Because custom ROMs let you do way more than just launcher changes...?

Like what? Not to start anything, I'm just curious. What can I do with CM10.2 that I can't do with Stock JB 4.3 rooted.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Nevermind...I got it to work. Overrated! In order to enable it you must long press the power button and enable extended desktop, not the most intuitive way to implement this. Now I wonder if I can customize the available controls, or are these always configured to be the same as the soft keys at the bottom?
