I hope I'm wording this right, but for my slide the only way to wake it up is to press the top power button. Even though I try to press the home or menu buttons it still remains in sleep mode. I would like to able to press menu or any of the face button keys to wake the phone up. Instead of having to go out of my way to hit the very top. Thanks in advance.

Are you using a CM based rom? If yes, go to Settings > Cyanogen Mod Settings > Input Settings and check off Trackball Wake.
If no... I think the only button aside from power that will wake it is the trackpad.
If u are stock then the trackpad should work. At least it did for me.

So, galaxy nexus has 3 on-screen "buttons". The menu button kinda looks like a window with apps, ok that's how I see it anyway. xD
So, wouldn't it be awesome, to have the menu button as the button that shows the running apps?
I believe it's a neat idea. What do you guys think?
So you should've posted this in the thread dedicated to ICS!
I think the menu button should be kept as the menu button And holding the home-button will show a list of running apps. Just like we're used to.
Well,for phones that have hardware buttons,the on-screen buttons won't show up.I don't if that's default behaviour,but it surely is possible and has already been done in all of the SDK ports.So don't worry.
And yes,that's what the menu button will do,open the menu.
Kala filaraki,prepei na gamaei kai na dernei t ICS!
There is a menu software button in every app. So a menu hardware button is useless. So a good idea would be to change it to match the on-screen button in ICS... If not, at least make a flashable .zip file.
Toli, gamane kai dernoune re 'su! Ade na vgei kanena ROM estw kai alpha.
Your actually wrong, with all due respect.
changing the menu button to the task switching button isn't a clever thing to do, as soon as you go into an app that requires the menu Button, (which is every app about) when you press it all you will get is the multitasking button, remember there's no on screen buttons for phones with hardware buttons, noone wants two sets of Buttons?.
Android already has a button for multitasking, its by long pressing the home button.

If it requires the menu button, then how about Galaxy Nexus, which doesn't have a menu button? Lick your brain with your tongue before speaking...

Anyway,from what I've seen,the menu button on phones with hardware buttons acts like the on screen menu button that apps have.So...

The button with the menu will show up when needed with a swipe I think. Maybe not in phones with hw buttons.

In Honeycomb, for instance, a menu button is shown to support older applications.
Wouldn't be too surprise to see also four buttons in Galaxy Nexus. After all, that's the all idea behind on-screen controls.
There is a settings button guys in every app in ICS... I believe it's an awesome idea. I dont want an on-screen settings button and a hw button.
im not sure if this has been asked, but just flashed over to CM7 and wanted to know how to quickly go back to the home screen, i've been using the back button but its not convenient at times.
Under settings\CyanogenMod Settings\tablet tweeks\choose soft button\ there is an option to add a home button to the soft keys
hit the power button for like three seconds and you get home. if you don't..then add it too the reboot menu or whatever. that is the lifesaver or homesaver

The method joemm mentioned is correct, but you can also use button saviour from the market, once loaded it puts a very small almost transparent toggle on your screen reguardless of the app your in and once pressed displays home,back, or menu. I love it but what joemm has stated works perfect. I'm just giving options.

This seems like an easy question, but I've googled this and searched threads and found nothing.
When using Nook SImple Touch (with nooter) how do I get back to the app launcher, after I enter the B&N E-reader?
Look for an arrow on the right edge around the middle.
This is the Button Savior app. Tap the arrow and it opens up
a few more buttons. Tap on the button with the home icon
and you get back to the launcher. It is also possible to
setup the "n" button to bring up the launcher using
Nook touch tools.

Thank you so much for the help!
You can also use Nook Touch Tools to enable the same menu on the recent apps menu that shows if you long-press the 'n' key.
I remapped the menu button to access recents and then I enabled the onscreen menu button to still have access to it, but it messed up some the apps dpi. For example the phone call app looks like in the image attached. How can I fix this?

Come on guys I need help this.
You could've seen that one coming...
The menu button is separate task bar. Disable it and it should go back to normal.
I dknt know if the re-map does this too or if there's an option, but in the new Samsung devices, long pressing 'recent apps' opens the menu. (just like long-pressing Home opens Recent apps by default on stock...)
