[Q] Space to Mute in custom launcher. - Samsung Captivate Glide

Hi ive tested many custom launchers from google store and noticed that all of them dont support muting the phone with space key (hold space to mute function)
If you hold space key , Instead of muting the launcher will select some app on mainscreen.
Does anyone know some workaround for space button to function properly? or maybe launcher that support this function.
Thanks

How do I disable lock screen in sense ROM?

Been on AOSP for a while....
How do I totally disable the lock screen on a Sense ROM?
Any way to wake up phone with volume buttons?
Also... Any way to increase the number of"recent apps" that pop up when I long press home button?
Thanks!
[ Evo / KWIQ-ns / from xda app ]
use an external lock screen like magic locker or GO series
i believe theres a app in the market that does what ur asking for i havent used it in a while u might want to search no lock on the market search bar to see if it finds it still.
As mentioned, No Lock from the market will disable the lockscreen. Once the lockscreen is disabled, the phone will wake with the volume buttons - the lockscreen is what keeps it from waking on anything other than the power button.
As for recent apps, I couldn't tell you. I know there are third party replacements of the recent apps dialog, but I don't know if it's possible to launch them by long-pressing home. I just use an app to open up my app drawer (Alt Drawer) when I long-press the search button. That works well for me, but I don't know if that would meet your specific needs. With Alt Drawer you can sort by "Most Used", but that can make finding a particular recent app difficult. I just sort mine alphabetically, that way I can easily launch any app from anywhere. You could use an app (Quick Launch, Button Shortcut, or another) to open the replacement "recent apps" by long-pressing the search button.

Mapping the hardware keys?

Is it possible to map the menu key (long press) to show all recent apps without installing a custom rom? I am willing to root to get this function but I really don't want to deal with custom roms. Is there maybe an app or something I can flash that can do this? I'm currently stock unrooted with Nova launcher, which only allows me to map the menu key (long press) to recent apps if I'm at the home screen.
I haven't been able to do what you're asking, but have had success enabling the onscreen soft keys. This requires root:

Some things are a little wonky with soft keys: the top entry of the call log is cut off and fast forwarding video with the default player while in landscape mode doesn't work. Small price to pay IMO for easy access to the multitasking menu.

[Q] Manually Changing the Quicklaunch Key to Camera in CM11

I'm on Madmack's 11/26/13, CM11 build and I'm trying to remap the extra quick launch button we have above the volume rocker on CM11 - basically I want it as my camera button.
I've been able to do this on other phones by manual editing the proper keyboard layout file.
The hardware keyboard layout file for the LGOP on CM11 appears to be: /system/user/gk-keypad-8064.kl
The quick launch button is Key 250 and by default its set to ASSIST (which launches the Search function oddly enough).
Normally just changing ASSIST to CAMERA and rebooting is sufficient to launch the CAMERA functions - doesn't work with my LGOP on CM11. However, once changing Key 250 to CAMERA, it does take pictures if you manually launch the camera app.
Switching it to Key 250 CAMERA WAKE oddly enough makes the quicklaunch button function exactly the same as when you press down on the screen for 2+ seconds and the home screens shrink to the center and Wallpapers/Widgets/Settings pop up.
I can tell you that changing Key 250 to POWER, VOLUME_UP, VOLUME_DOWN, HOME all work... just can't get the CAMERA function to work.
Any thoughts or ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
I have no idea but this is would be great. I hope someone can chime in to help you out.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
hey, decompressed an old nandroid of the stock rom...
i'm pretty sure i had the quicklaunch button set to the default "press to launch camera/press again to snap a pic" action, and my gk-keypad-8064.kl had key 250 set to QUICK_CLIP
Can we set it to a particular app? particularly to display recent apps?
Isn't there a "buttons" section in the phone settings? I used that to switch search function to camera and tested, it works great. Only downside is its not a 2-step shutter button lol.
Hi have you tryed changing it to camera wake_dropped? ive remapped another LG phone and that was the code i used. ill try it now aswell

A similar question
In looking through the forums, this thread seemed to be the closest to users having a similar situation to myself. I have an LGOP running the latest nightly of CM11 and I would also like to map the quick search button to a different function. While there are buttons options to set it to launch the camera app, it launches the default camera app and I would like it to launch the latest version of Google's camera app. Does anyone know how to do this?
Gravity box I think can pull it off

WEll I was searching for something similar, to remap our Quick button and assign anything to it! and I have found an xposed module which can do the job here you go: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.xposed.additionsgb

[Q] Lookng for 5x5 TW launcher & lockscreen LED mod that works for 4.3

Looking for 5x5 TW launcher for S3 /4.3 /MK6
& a LED flashlight mod usable when the screen is off
If anyone is aware of a working 5x5 launcher for 4.3 /MK6 I'd really appreciate hearing about it.
I've grown used to having a 5x5 home screen launcher.. then had to replace my S3 phone (4.1.2). Which means that I'm now stuck with Android 4.3 where a lot of my mods no longer work and the OS can't be reverted to an earlier version. I've tried a dozen 5x5 and 5x6 launchers, including some labeled as 4.3/MK, but they cause the dreaded "unfortunately process x has stopped" messages or boot loops on my S3.
And I'm also trying to find a flashlight /LED /torch app that can be used when the screen is off. One where the LED can be turned on by a long press of the home button or ideally the home button + volume key. I did find a shake to turn on the LED in the play store. But shaking a phone seems odd to me and I'd worry about the LED accidentally turning on too. I've tried some long press volume key mods that either don't work at all or freeze and require a reboot to turn the LED off. A long volume press mod would interfere with music player track skip too.
I just finished installing several ROMs that claim this feature only to find that the listed LED feature hasn't been implemented yet and that minor detail wasn't noted on the list of ROM features. Okay. Maybe there is a button remapper app that I could use in conjunction with the shake the phone mod? I've just started searching to see if there are any remapping mods that might do this.
Great forum and I really appreciate the work that enthusiasts do here.
And thank you in advance if anyone knows where I might find either mod.

Expand Volume menu

Hi,
currently using GravityBox to expand the audio drop down (which pops up when you press the volume keys) to ungroup ringtone and notification tone.
Since GB has so many features that don't work on the OnePlus 3 (which clutter Xposed log) I'd like to find out if there's an alternative to this...
Is there any other app/Xposed mod that'll ungroup these?
