I have done a search but cannot find the answer. Every video player I use works fine but there is no menu option to exit the movie. I am using CM7 on SD.
Thanks
Settings > Tablet Tweaks > check override fullscreen.
Set the override button as whatever you want.
Play movie, click the down arrow to hide, then click your unhide button to bring back up the menu so you can exit/etc.

... in CM7 tablet tweaks?
Basically the "disable fullscreen" setting is great as it allows the status bar to stick around all the time. The only problem I've encountered is that some games don't display properly when I leave this setting on and need to uncheck it before launching the game. So I guess I'm asking if there's a way to either a) quickly toggle it from a widget/shortcut? Or if b) there's a smart app that can set it pre-game launch (similar to how CF3D Pro handles per app plugin settings.)
I'm okay with "no there's no such thing," just curious if anyone else has run into this before.
Thanks!
P.S. This is CM7 n126 on sdcard (vg method) w/ stock ADW.

The double chevron that should show up with your soft buttons when an app wants fullscreen will do exactly that. In Tablet Tweaks, right under the "Disable Fullscreen", tap "Choose unhide button" and you can pick which key will pop the status bar back up; I use "n" (home, not the default), or you can press-and-hold the power button, then pick the default (whatever that is, I've forgotten, it's not convenient for the NC).

I know about the chevron, and that does work most of the time. But I'm specifically to games that misbehave if you hit the chevron to hide the statusbar after the game's launched. What's happening to me is that the screen to zoom out to take up the extra space given up by the hidden status bar, but on screen touches will still behave as if the screen was it's previous size. So buttons, etc end up pressing in the wrong place. Does that make sense?
Off the top of my head, one game in particular that does this is FieldRunners HD. If you launch the game then hide the status bar with the chevron, the on screen presses will now be mis-aligned. But, if you toggle the check box "Disable Fullscreen" before launching, then the game will properly go full screen and work correctly.

Go to Android settings --> application settings --> find "Sixaxis" app --> clear data, clear cache.
Than go to application and check if it's OK.
if no in that "sixaxis" app go to settings, than find remapping or something... I don't remember, but it lets you set/replace buttons to your custom...
Maybe there is no this func, but I saw on the demo in youtube that there should be a possibility to customize hardware buttons behavior. Also should be possible to enable swipe on Home button.
If you type in search box in General Settings keyword "camera" it will show you that there should be some settings in Buttons, to set behavior. But if you press on context link - it shows button menu but very limited.
Do you have one?
Thanks

If I'm not wrong swipe on Home is available on ZUI home, not Cyanogen OS.
On Buttons menu you can set home long press action, home doube tap action (doesn't work on latest update).
I personally use "All In One Gestures" app to configure buttons

Thanks a lot. I will try!
The reason is I would like to set a camera on double tap action and cannot find how to do it by default.

In Settings -> About Phone turn on Advanced mode. Then you can configure buttons. I have it set up just as you'd like it, double tap for camera, works perfectly for me with latest update.

Is there anyway to change controls on SPMC as i have 2 things that really annoy me, and if anyone could help me out i would really appreciate it, especially the 2nd problem.
1st (most annoying) - when in Programs -> Android apps, the menu button does not work so i can not add them to favourites which is annoying as i have to use my girlfriends phone remote all the time just for this one function.
2nd - while a video is playing when clicking back it stops video instead of carrying on playing in the background so you can browse lists (useful for music videos and is standard in kodi)
3rd (just remembered) - theres is no option for the 'now playing menu' which means you cant put the playlist your playing on shuffle or repeat at all (frustrating for music video playlists).
I have nearly 1500 music videos and i want to be able to play them without listening to them in the same order everytime and because of the 2nd problem i cant even queue other tracks and do it that way
1. Hold 'Ok' button for a while -> context menu appears (probably does not work with 'A' button on controller)
2. Change Kodi keymap > search keymap on Kodi Wiki
3. Change Kodi keymap > assign 'Tab' (now playing) or 'n' (playlist) to a button you want
koying is now aware of the first problem
See if this helps you:

Download Terminal Emulator from the Play Store. Install HTC Internet from ApkMirror.
Now enter EPS and open Messages.
Text yourself a link. Google for example.
Tap that link and open it with HTC Internet.
Tap the 3 dots and hit share, then tap "Term Here" to open Terminal Emulator.
Then get superuser access in Terminal Emulator with the "su" command, after that execute "am start com.htc.launcher" to wake up the launcher but not also open it and finally execute "am start com.htc.launcher/com.htc.launcher.Launcher" to open the homescreen activity. Boom. Now you can open any app, but only exit them by tapping back multiple times. Home sends you to the EPS Launcher.
2D apps are limited to 15fps, but 3D apps are locked at 30fps just as with the regular power saver.
Ok. Just found a new and much quicker way.
This works without root, unlike the one above.
Download Irishin's Button Remapper (no root) and Quick Shortcut Maker.
Open Button Remapper and remap an "Other..." action to Volume Down. Select "Shortcut" and enter Quick Shortcut Maker. Go down to Sense Home and select "com.htc.launcher/com.htc.launcher.Launcher" and tap "Create". Not tick "Block System Action" and tap "Ok" to create the remap. Also select "single tap".
Now activate Extreme Power Saver and hit the vol down key.
Enjoy your new makeshift physical home button.
You can also set a long press on vol down to open the recent apps with Button Remapper.
Fun fact: If you do it with the Quick Shortcut Maker method, like, scroll down to SystemUI and select "com.android.systemui/com.android.systemui.recent.RecentsActivity, if you are on Android 5.1.1, it will open the Android 4.4-style recent apps, because the code is still present in the System UI.

Yeah, i know. But i was making this tutorial for those that dont have a rooted M9 or HTC phone in general.
I randomly discovered this and thought it was pretty cool and worth sharing.
