You can change the navigation panel to show home button
If you're talking about hard pressing on the home button to turn it into a haptic physical button, the answer is no that feature is not present. I do kind of miss this from the note 8 but it's not too bad, it was mainly useful for when the UI froze

Man my note 9 had this feature and it was brilliant. Idk why they remove features and charge more.

They should at least have haptic feedback from the fingerprint sensor like every other phone out there. Just that reassuring vibration that let's you know your pressing something.

can you change the wake phone function from the power button to, say, the volume keys and/or the home soft button?
thanks in advance. please don't slaughter me if this is posted elsewhere!

Idk where it is at in the samsung devices but usually you can change the key layout by editing user-key layout you can also remap the search button to any app.

i can see how that would be useful but i couldn't find it and moreover, i think when the phone goes into sleep-mode, those soft keys are disabled. i guess i am looking for a way to either wake the phone with the volume keys - or - somehow enable those soft buttons so i can hit the home one and wake up my phone.

You would have to give the keys a set wake option. I can do it for htc devices but i don't know much about samsung devices. You would want a volume rocker wake I'm guessing or menu and back wake right. You can also use an app called widget locker it enables you to wake the device from volume rocker etc.
thanks again for the thoughts.
i think i'll patiently wait a few weeks for people smarter than me to start writing apps specific to this phone.
have a great day!
I think this will come in handy since some of us don't want to wear out the power button but be able to use both. The only problem I might see using the volume button is when you are listening to something with your headphones. Would pressing the volume button be changing the volume or waking the phone? hahaha..i'm sure there will be options.
The latest version of Juggernaut has that as an option, if you're into flashing custom roms.

That is correct, Juggernaut 2.6 has this feature and flashing is pretty simple.
i use this option on Juggernaut too. its great cuz i cant always reach the power button even tho i have huge hands.
which ROM except Juggernaut has this option, I mean waking phone up by sound button?
Darkside's Dewizzed does. and it's a GREAT rom.
I actually hate the 'feature'. I listen to music lots with my phone, and having to double tap the volume rocker to adjust volume sucks, and then it turns on the screen. Since half the time it's in my pocket and i'm pushing buttons through that... long story short i've pocket texted a couple times.
/rant.
Yes, and you can do this without rooting and without installing a custom rom by using the application widget locker, which has an option to wake the phone using the volume keys. Otherwise several roms support this such as the Darkside Dewizzed rom.
Epic bump, but Josh from mobile tech videos gave my phone a solution like this when my phone had an internal shortage. He set the volume+ button as the wake button and it did involve the key layout as someone in this thread had said earlier. Ill be back with a link to an xda thread that had the same idea but for a different device.
I bump this because even though he changed the button layout, I completely forgot about it and flashed a different rom :S now I seek a solution.

ParanoidAndroid also has this function. I already had my power button fail once and had to replace it I now have the option of using the volume buttons or power button to wake the phone.
Hi there guys,
i want to ask u if u know a way to remap physical key on galaxy nexus or another way to turn on from "standby" the cell without always pressing the power button...
i can think that fast it will be insible to touch after long use or continuisly press
thanks for your answer and tips about it
I'm not entirely sure what your asking. There are only 3 physical keys on the device and one of them needs to be used as the power button. If you mean turning the screen on by pressing the screen, this wouldn't make much sense as the screen needs to be on to detect touch.
only 2 physical keys...
1)power on/off button
2)volume
when the screen is black i can turn it on only by pressing the power button, i'm looking for another way to turn the screen on, ex. shacking the phone, pressing the screen, pressing volume key or etc...
The volume consists of 2 physical buttons...
All sensors are off by default when the screen is off. Turning these on would drain your battery dramatically.
If you were to change your power on button to one of your volume keys, what would be the point? You'd just lose the ability to change your volume easily and have a useless power button.
remap the volume key was just an example...
the matter is: is there any other way to turn on the screen without press the power button? with the constantly and massive use of it, it will become fragile and easy to break out.
i use volume up/down and power on /off randomly, all are enabled to wake up the device on aokp milestone 4. i think they may have designed the buttons to survive for quite some time since there is only 1 regular button for the job. other buttons on other phones dont just die and break out do they?
edit: by enabled i meant it is possible to select them as usable. stock doesnt have it afaik (didnt have stock long enough to find out)

no, its an option in the Rom Controls under the lockscreen options menu.
Glados kernel has a touch wake option. You can set it for any length of time after the screen goes off. This will also prevent your phone from going into deep sleep so it can affect your battery.

yes and this is the problem, my experience with other phones with "one function key" usually they break out "easily"
ok so from what u all wrote guys my only option is to root the phone and install a new rom with that "touch screen option"
can u indicate to me better where i can find the roms you are talking about? i'll appreciate it a lot
AOKP found in the development section

Hello, i recently bought this beast and i am noticing 2-3 seconds delay when i wake up the device by pressing the power button or home button, is there away to fix it

I think it's S Voice. Go into the app and uncheck the below options.
Open via the home key
Wake up command

Power button, not sure.
Home button is defintitely s-voice, which hijacks the home button. It makes a delay so to wait for a double tap. Its very annoying.

I had the same delay and just tried this. It works! No more delay with the power button! Thanks americasteam.

Yes thanks americasteam! Only issue so far, everything else is butter.
I deactivated the S Voice option but there is still very noticeable delay when waking the phone with the Home or Power button.
Any suggestions?

Anyone?
There are thousands of threads all over this forum and other forums considering this issue.. This is (by the opinion of the majority) caused by Exynos.. When phone enters deep sleep state it takes while until Exynos wakes all 4 cores or smt like that...
Hey guys, anyone know of an app that doesn't the stock gestures? Particularly the drop down notifications menu.
I've tried with Finger Scanner Gestures but it broke the drop-down.
I'm looking to being able to lock the phone when long-pressing the fingerprint.
Thank you!
Its easier to reach the power button instead of the FP for long press ...
Weird options of yours

Thing is I don't know how much it'll last. I've experienced deterioration in the past with the power button. Also idk, it seems more comfortable to do it with the fingerprint.
I'd also love to get other gestures to work tho .
Why not remap one of the on screen buttons to lock screen function? It's a built in OOS feature and that way, you don't have to use the physical lock key button.
Just got a Korean version SM-F907N. Built quality is great, but I noticed that the Bixby button underneath fingerprint sensor doesn't work (solid, not pressable). After a little investigation it turns out that Korean version doesn't even have this button, instead they merged it with power button, or now called side key like the new iPhone.
It won't be an issue for me, but will it be a problem for any third-party ROMs?

SM-F900U in the US, the fingerprint sensor is not a button either.

There isn't a dedicated Bixby button on any Fold. There isn't one on the Note 10 either for that matter. Newer phones moved to mapping the power button to do different things based on a single press or double press.

Hahaha. You made my day. Fingerprint is not a button at all. Note 10 and Galaxy fold got it merged with power button.

Yeah now I know, but The Verge’s video actually mentioned this earlier said this layout is pretty annoying, so maybe during the reinforcement they changed their mind
