Hi,
I was wondering if I can change the functionality of the buttons which are placed on the unit. It would be great if I could change the NAV button to open not the iGo navigation but Google Maps.
Can you help me?
Kind regards

Do you tried to enter the Settings, then GPS section, and changing there the associated application?
Which settings do you mean? Android Settings or Device Settings (which are secured by the code)

Android settings and then GPS section
Okay, that might be a possible solution to change the NAV button. But how to change the other buttons?

On my unit I have the following buttons: MENU, DISC, NAVI, DIMM and BAND. I don't know which button can be still redefined, but the only solution (if there is any) I think it could be using a custom ROM.
In my opinion, there should be a configuration file anywhere. But I could not yet find it...
BTW: I have MENU, SETUP, >>|, RADIO, DVD, GPS

So, which other buttons would you like to redefine and with which other features?
I'd like to put a music player on the DVD Button, as I never watch a DVD in my car...

Do you have already installed a custom ROM on your unit? Take a look also in the device's Factory settings with the secure code. Such a redefining should be possible.
No, it's still stock...
I couldn't find anything in factory settings...

OK, then I think that it could be possible only with the custom ROM or by root access.
I'm still on stock ROM too, and I would like to make a complete backup of the original ROM before installing the custom one.
That would be good. But as I'm on root, I should be able to change the necessary configuration files...
How do you managed yo get root access without custom ROM? Which is the exact type of your unit and the MCU version?
I had to sideload some things and install an app to root it - don't know exactly anymore.
Will tell you the MCU later this afternoon

Have CM7 installed and noticed my SD filled up quick. I found out its has been putting my pictures on the SD. How can I change it back to internal? Thanks
That is a little more tricky than it sounds but it can be done. Are you looking for a simple solution or the hard solution?
Whatever gets the job done and wont go away when I update CM7.
Simple solution is to use a different camera app that gives you the option. Hard solution is changing code in CM7 build and yes you would have to do it for every new build.

The only app that I could verify had this feature is "Camera Advance" which crashes immediately upon trying to change this storage setting. Can anyone else recommend a camera app (pay or free) that allows you to successfully toggle the storage location (internal/external)?

There are definitely apps on the Play Store that can superimpose softkeys on the screen at the bottom, if you really don't like the capacitive ones.

Funny enough I installed a softkeys app for rooted devices off the play store and it put my phone in a bootloop...looks like I'm going to have to flash the factory firmware.

I believe it edited the build prop so it was navigation buttons, not superimposed.
The reason I was trying to get the navigation buttons back by the way was because the capacitive stopped working.

It might be bootlooping because if you try to enable a feature (in the build prop) that isn't on the device (the actual system files), it can't boot up correctly.

That's most likely the case, I was just getting frustrated and installed the app without thinking, oh well.
I just want the navigation bar because, at least from my experience, most apps that superimpose the buttons are never the same. They won't appear at boot, interfere with the keyboard, and require a gesture to make them appear.
Doesnt gravity box have an option? Never tried it though.. just saying it might work.
i saw someone doing this but cant remeber where. Look in the develompent forum or in Google+ asus zenui beta development
I've been using this app for the last two years. I can highly recommend it.

Install LP xposed, and LP gravity box, go to "navigation bar tweaks" and tick "master switch" "enable navigation bar" and soft reboot done =]
You have to edit the correct build.prop in /system/ that corresponds to your Zenfone 2 model.
If you have the same model as me (WW/64GB/4GB RAM/2.3GHz), you need to edit build.ze551.dual.2p3GHz.prop
If you look through my posting history, you'll see me offer a link to a guide on doing it, link also includes info on disabling the capacitive buttons. On mobile so can't look through myself. Cheers.
You could use one hand mode until you find a working one.

Yeah I actually found your thread prior to making this, but despite editing that specific modeled build prop, I did not see any results. It always deleted the line of code after I saved changes.

Strange it worked for me perfectly.
Hi,
i've tried to do a few searches but can't find anything about SHOWING the soft keys all the time.
See the thing is, this phone is for the mother-in-law and she's 71 so it needs to be as simple as possible. She wants to play games like temple run but doesn't understand the concept of swipe the top to get the home button to show up so I'd like to have the bottom bar always visible, even in immersive mode.
Any ideas please?
Cheers
I should probably include that it's stock 14.6.A.0.368 (this probably needs updating, but I'm looking for how to do that at the moment and confusing myself lol) and is rooted.
Xposed module 'App Settings' - go to the app you want, full-screen>prevent. I think you have to do it for each one. You probably can force it across the board with build prop, but I think the other way is best.
I can cope with that... Is there an easy guide for my firmware version to install xposed? I don't want to brick it again lol

Flash this in recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3580244&d=1450386592 Then install this apk - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3383776&d=1435601440 Then open Xposed app and go to 'download' and search for 'app settings'. Note that the first boot after flashing the zip will be long and finish with 'optimizing apps' dialog, which will take several minutes. Make sure your battery level is good.
Always a good idea to backup first.

Oh yeah, and any time you install a new module in Xposed, it won't be active until you reboot.
Absolutely smashing, thanks. I've flashed the zip and now I'm waiting for it to load up, then I'll install the apk and find the module.
Cheers
Unfortunately that didn't work Things like Temple Run still go full screen and the navigation bar disappears.

Strange... Is the module working in general? Did you check the box in 'modules' screen in Xposed? I tested it on several apps and it was good...
I don't think so... It's ticked and I've rebooted and all that. The Adblocker module I found is working fine. Strange.
Perhaps I'm missing something. Any suggestions please? lol!! It's winding me up big time :/

Are you sure? Reading the description that seems to do the opposite to what I want?
I want the navigation bar to be visible even in full screen mode. The girlfriend's mum can't grasp the concept of swipe to show the navigation and she keeps forgetting when we tell her, so by having it always visible we remove that obstacle

There's a 'blacklist' function which you can apply to chosen apps. I can't say if it will work on your specific game or not. The Xoosed module I mentioned works great for me with Camera, but I guess it didn't work for your game. I think with play store you can return a purchase within 15 minutes or something...
Don't know how I missed that. I'll give it a bash, Many thanks!
That didn't work either unfortunately
s0m3dud3 said:

Well, after some reading, it seems clear that it is coded into the programming, and you'd have to rewrite the ROM to entirely disable it. From app to app, you probably could decompile and mod the apk so it doesn't call on the function. I did read that Gravity Box from Xposed has an immersive mode toggle, but I can't test it, since GB doesn't work on CM ROM. Check that out.
Thanks for your help so far. I tried GB but it didn't work either. Bloody annoying.
Perhaps another approach would be double tap the power switch to return home? Do you know if something like this exists please?
Thanks again for all the input and suggestions so far.

Hey I just discovered UDN (ultimate dynamic navbar). Install it, go to ssettings>general>special modes. Check 'toggle mode' and uncheck 'hide on outside touch'. The navbar will never go away. The only problem is that it sits Right there over anything else, blocking whatever you might want to touch down there, so maybe not a total fix. How eve, there's also more configurations you can mess with that might at least be an improvement.

I think I tried that as well, but like you say, it gets in the way. It got in the way and I didn't look any more into it. I'll give it a go and look more at it when I get home from work. Cheers.
"Transform into" and Auto shape options in S-Note suddenly gone after 5.1.1 update
Hi, just updated my device to the latest 5.1.1 Android version,
and for some peculiar reason, some features in the S-Note app are suddenly gone,
such as the "transform into" option that was extremely useful to me.
Done some googling and saw that the app used to have an extension pack option,
though nothing like that exists now in the app.
Any sort of help would be much appreciated.

This cannot be. I just updated my device to the latest android version 5.1.1 as you did yourself. I am able to have every feature i used to in the previous android version including the "transform into". When you are taking note on top of the S note app there's a "bar" with features such as pencil, eraser etc. Have you tried to extend this bar. If so; you'll see there's the tranform into button along with some other features. Try it out, let me know what happend.

Hi, the bar was already extended, and the only options i can recall are the basic ones, such as the pencil, eraser, the cloud thing (to select things with it), and that's about it. no transform into button, and also not where it was located before, after you select something with the lasso, the option is completely gone..
Would you please take a screenshot of the app and show the option?
I am 200% sure i've checked everything.
Unfortunately I already burned the Kitkat rom on my device so I can use these features again..
but if i am mistaken, and indeed missed it, I will update again.

Look at the screenshot and:
(1) Select the area you want to transform using the "cloud thing" you mention above; which's happens to be the lasso.
(2)You should be able to see a new bar like the one in the screenshot.
(3)Now, choose the second option (quadrangle thing) and it will ask you what tranform you want to operate, for instance math formula, text, shape, shape + text etc.
Hope I helped ya at all!!! :laugh::fingers-crossed:

It doesn't work that way. Take a look at this.
The displayed menu simply doesn't have the "Transform into" option. It only displays : Properties, Cut, Copy and delete. Nothing more.
Any ideas on the net?

Solution found
For anyone still interested I found a solution.
It seems that for some strange reason and for some lucky owners like me the Andorid 5.1.1 update can render the S Note not fully operational (transform into missing). So I used the Smart Tutor app from Samsung and the tech guy told me thar after checking everything he found that the only way to correct the issue was to return the tablet to its factory settings (i.e: reset the tablet) .
So there it is. You have to restore the tablet to its original 5.1.1 state. Before starting BE CAREFUL , you have to backup your data (via google account, via samsung account and even better via the samsung's Smart switch app that's you call). Otherwise the reset will wipe out/delete all personal data.
So after doing you backup watch this video to perform the reset: youtube.com/watch?v=NDp_9mfBS98. There are similar videos on youtube so again your call. The process is quick.
Once you reset the tablet and restore your data you will have to do some adjusments but you will not lose data (if previously backed up).
Everything went as suppossed and now I have the S Note app fully operational.

Hello all. I bought this radio for my Skoda Fabia. I have a few question. My maxidot screen does not show file names, only track 1, track2, etc...if I use something else, like poweramp, it just shows OTHER MEDIA. Any way of fixing this? Pumpkin support doesn't have a clue.
Also, can I install Malaysk ROM for this radio? Since it has many hardware buttons, will they still work?
Thank you

You need to provide a picture of your system screen to be able say yes or no.
Normally yes, but you never know, since Pumpkin is only a reseller.
