I know you can re-map the bixby button to open an app that will toggle mute the sound. However, when you double-press the bixby button with the screen off, will the act of double pressing the bixby button wake the screen??
What I am looking to do is re-mapp the button so that it acts like an iphone/Oneplus alert slider so that when the phone is in my pocket I can double press the bixby button and the phone goes into silent mode. But I don't want the screen to wake up when I do this.
Any advice on how to achieve this without waking the screen will be most appreciated. Perhaps the best way is to use tasker??
Thanks and appreciate any pointers, particularly from someone who already has this set-up
S20 line don't have Bixby button
I think OP meant the power button.
Power Button Remapper for S20 / Note 10 - sideActions will let you do that.

I did indeed mean the "combined" power and bixby button. Thanks for your suggestion ??

Basically, my power button is screwed. It is constantly held down, so I cannot lock/unlock my phone and everything else you use the button for. I realised the other day that I don't press the optical sense button down...at all. So I wonder, is it possible to turn that button into my power button? and just disable the power button all together.
Greetings:
is "Volume Wake" possible on G Note 2?
if it is, can someone explain how?
Thank you.
You have home button and power button to turn the phone on. Does volume wake still necessary??

I actually like being able to wake the phone with volume buttons as well.
I tend to keep my phones for a long while! so I look ahead and plus both
Power & Home buttons are pretty over used, I guess it won't hurt if there is another option, IMHO.
In my country(India), its mandatory to provide emergency call on 3 times pressing the power button.
This means that there is no shortcut to launch camera by pressing power button 2 times which is available in other countries.
Is there any method by which I can remap the power button to launch camera ? ( I am rooted and have Xposed installed)
Use this and re-map the volume button double tap to launch camera:

You missed nothing. I said you can remap the volume button to do what you are asking. It's the closest thing.

Understood.
Looking for any other option where I can map the power button!
So my power button pops off, and the replacement in Indonesia is nonexistence. I've been using "button mapper" app and changed the up volume button as my power button, but when my phone sleep/lock I cannot use the volume button anymore. I have to rely on "raise to wake" and "double tap to wake", but those things are slow and sometimes acting up in android Q
Is there any way to remap my home button? what should I do, and if I should root my phone what is the next thing to do?
Thank you very much
Hi there
When I press Volume Down + Power Button the phone opens up a power menu, where I can choose to shut down, restart etc.
I want to use the default feature of this key combination to take screenshot, I have checked the settings and couldn't find anything that would help.
Would appreciate your assistance.
Regards

Just click and release both Power and volume down buttons for screenshot. Don't press and hold.
or activate hand swipe or use s-pen. Most often I use s-pen so I can make notes.
