I have searched and read almost every post regarding remapping of ok button.
Can anybody tell me if ok button on front side of hermes near call buttons and softkeys be remapped.
I am aeb buttons but it doesnt have option for it?
any thing else i can try?
I think ae buttons have the option to do what you want...
When you go to the configuration window where you can set the funtion to each button even that the front ok button is not listed there is an option of custom button or something like that, select that option, then pres the button you want (the fron ok) and then asign the function you would like to add...
Sorry I could not be more detailed but I only use this software for very few time because when instaled, the scroll wheel didn't respond...
hope it helps...

As far as I know, nobody has published a way to do this. However, If you havent already, there is a way to hack the PTT button, which I use to change the volume. You can assign any function that you want for buttons 1-5 @ start-->settings-->personal-->buttons. There is also a cab in the hermes section to remap your softkeys. You may want to talk to Sleuth255 (he was the one who hacked the PTT) to see if there is a way to do this for the ok button.

Worked like a charm
100x thanx 2 u
i know this forum rocks
hi guys, i am also looking for something similar to this. i have noticed that when i press the ok button on the front, or on the keyboard that it only minimises the program rather than closing it. now the background behind that is i have HTC X button on LVSW 3.30.0.9 (soon to be 3.30.2.1). and that is set to close the program.
EDIT: i stand corrected. i just googled ae button and noticed it was a program. i shall try that and see how it goes.

I have been looking for something to do this since the Hermes dropped.. I would love to find a way to make a press on OK minimize the app and a hold on it to close the app.. Still nothing?
Edit: I second the edit above...
that one may be possible with a combination of x button and ae button.... i havent tried it and am still trying things with ae button. but it may be possible.
ok. i am using ae button now and have noticed a few things.
one. the memory manager is pretty cool
two. when i go to add the front ok button above the 'end' key, it comes up with button #4075. when i try to remap that as 'close active application' it does nothing. not even minimise it.
three. it works when i remap the internet key to 'close active application' it closes it completely.
four. the same happens when i add and try to remap the ok button on the keyboard to the same thing.
and five. i notice that the button #4075. the ok button on the front, says 'change volume or.... 1. close active application'
which is odd.
the rest of the remapping works well. except for added the ok buttons.
Didn't notice it till today, but my camera button (#5) isn't working? When you hit it, nothing happens.
I thought maybe it was a bug in the rom I'm using S64_WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_V1) so I flashed back to MRH_8.4_Sun Shower. Button still doesn't work, so I remapped it to Button #4 (Comm manager) and now when I hit Button #4, the camera comes up and I can see everything on the LCD screen but I still can't take a picture?? When I tap Button #4 to take a picture like you normally would with Button #5, nothing happens?? It doesn't take a picture?
Is there another way to take a picture from within the LSD screen while your viewing the shot you want to take? There is all kinds of adjustments for taking pictures on the LSD, but I don't see an actual button you could tap on the LCD to take a picture?
Dont know but...

Don´t know the answer but i think you will have more luck reposting these on Hermes - Hermes Thread.
Good Luck.
Thanx. You might be right. I keep it here for now and see what happens. I don't want to get in trouble posting the same question in a bunch of different forums.
may be try the button 5 fix from my 4shared ... I am sure the camera worked when I tried starbase's

What's the file called? I looked in the Cab section of 4shared, and didn't see anything in there regarding it.

If your camera button is broken, and you have mapped camera.exe to another button, cant you just take photos using the d-pad to operate the shutter?
The other thing you could look at is VJKeyPress from vijay555, as then you could set any hardware button to press the enter key and take a pic. I'm not sure how you would go about setting the same button to open the camera and open the shutter, but maybe a 3rd party app so long press opens camera, and short press takes photo.
happened to my Hermes too. I dropped it from my pocket and it does exactly what you say.
Just use the center button on the d-pad to take a picture.
My Camera Button don't work, too. So, I use the center button on the d-pad to take a picture, too.

SWEET! Thank you! I never thought of that. I love this forum!
I thought the camera button was #4?
At least it is on my phone. Your not trying to map the wrong button are you? Or did I just get really confused by reading the thread? haha

I think your right. It's button 4. I moved it to the comm mgr button 3.
Low Memory!
I re-routed the camera to the comm mgr button #3. Now with the TouchFlo rom I'm getting a low memory error message and the camera won't load!
I'm going to switch roms and see what happens.
SUCCESS!!
I just installed a new version of the TouchFlo 2D rom. Still couldn't get button #4 to work, but after I re-routed it again to button #3 - YES! I have a camera again!! No error messages!
I really like this version of the TouchFlo 2D rom. Works great so far - no hard resets after 8 hours of use. AND my camera works with it without low memory error messages.
That's what I'm talking about!! (see signature below for version)
Thanx everyone!
Maybe a dumb question, but I can't seem to find a way to get an address bar with a bookmark shortcut/button to stick at the top of the browser window. It's kind of annoying to have to go through that side shortcut thing to find the.bookmarks. I have toggled the full screen on and off a bunch of times but nothing changes.
Any ideas ?
Long press the back button
Hope this helps

Damn ! Thanks ! Faster than a Google search !
Main thing is I want to make the left hardware button (defaults to menu) to be the BACK button. I hold the phone in my left hand and find it difficult to hit the back button one-handed. Having it on the left (which also makes more logical sense as its a back button and all) would make it perfect
Im running CM10 and I have remapped the menu button to be multitask however I dont see any option concerning the back button. Is there a mod I can apply to make this work?
Thanks all

Since you're running CM10, why don't you ask this question in the specific ROM thread? I don't know the answer to your specific question but with Task's AOKP ROM, I added a nav bar at the bottom of the screen (soft buttons) that allow me to configure the bar to whatever functions I want (to a certain extent).

U can get the zip and go to the keylayout folder in system and manually change it...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
My apologies but didnt know there was a CM forum. Or do you mean the CM thread under Android Dev forum? Ill post in there if thats what you mean. Regarding the keys I didnt want to add the soft keys (similar to nexus products) to my screen if I could avoid as it will take screen real estate however would consider if this was the only option
Also howtomen, can you be more specific on which zip
Thanks
So I believe I figured this out. Had to go into /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl
Replacing
key 139 MENU
key 158 BACK
With:
key 139 BACK
key 158 MENU
After reboot it seems to work.
Hi.
I noticed there is a slight lag when using the menu button (bottom left capacitive button), as opposed to the 'back' button which is immediate. Is there any way to tweak this? Maybe there's a built in lag for the menu button that can be disabled...

You just need remove double action from menu button.

Man you saved my life. Seems logic but i never tried this before.

Do you mean the 'long press' option?
Because I don't have any such action set and yet I only have this laggy home button, in an otherwise supersmooth and fast system.
