Is there anyway to change the search button to open task switcher instead of search in AOKP? i never use that button anyways

Hi,
I have problem with task switcher. I installed in villain rom Launcher Pro. But every time press Home longer and task switcher appears, then I have to choose default home application. Is there any possibility to change that?
Clear defaults for HTC Sense is grayed out.
Finally, is there any possibility to disable task switcher?
Thanks in advance.
Try clear defaults on launcher pro, under the defaults section, then press home again and see...
After talking with some other folks and experimenting, I've come to the conclusion that the problem is adw related. If I use launcherpro or stock tw, I can long press the search key and voice search automatically starts (or whatever app I set it to). When using adw launcher however, long pressing the search button only gets me an "application is not installed on your phone" message.
Anyone else have this issue or found a solution (other than the obvious one of changing launchers)? I've tried stock and nonstock ROMS to no avail, but never flashed off of dj05...
Yep, same here. It started after the last adw update. Workaround is to doubletap the search key or singletap to open search, then longpress to open voice search.

Well, if you press search, then long press search, the voice search pops up...
I'm not sure if it's a bug or not. Not sure what is causing it, but that's the current workaround.
Yeah, I learned of the voice search workaround, but I use launchkey to remap my long press to more useful functions (for me) and it no longer functions with ADW.
Thanks for the quick response. I hope ADW is planning on integrating a long press function in the launcher itself, saving me one more application, rather than it being a bug.
On my Evo LTE running CM10 the recent apps button on short press opens settings and long press opens recent apps. I like this function vs having to have a shortcut on the desktop or getting to it from notifications. On most newer phones/tablets running ICS/JB there are mods that remap this function but I've not seen this anywhere for the Nexus. I"m running stock but rooted and would prefer to stay that way if i can. Does anyone either know how to do it or if there's a mod floating around that i was unable to find using "search"?
I would also love to customize what app is opened when sliding up from the soft keys, if that's related.

No that's not exactly what i'm talking about but i would like to do that as well. If i understand correctly if you hold any of the software key/button (IE back, home, or recent apps) and slide your finger up there is a dotted circle with google search button at the top. If i could place the settings app there that would get me by. As for now when i hit the recent apps button i would prefer that to be the settings button or being able to long press the button to open settings. I think what i want is a limitation of the launcher but who knows. Anyone who does have any idea how to do this please let me know. I did attempt to edit the keys file in system/usr/keylayout by trying to add an extra key for settings but it didn't work.
I am on aurora 4 update 1a. Is there a way to remap search button to APP_SWITCH. Instead of opening the search menu it opens multitasking apps.

Download GravityBox[KK] from Xposed. You can modify what they keys do in there. If you don't have Xposed then HERE is the link
I think that's better use MenuBeGone xposed module.
It does only that..
Works for me on stock samsung touchwix rom (gng8).
