Dear All!
Is it possible to map hardware buttons "Home" and "Back" to answer or reject incoming call?
I tried ButtonRemapper but it doesn't allow to answer call, only launch te default Phone app.
So it there any tool or hack to make hardware keys "Home" and "Back" able for answering or rejecting incoming calls? Thank you.

Interesting.. Would be good indeed..

very interesting, hope somebody knows. It would be really useful/

I think it's time to "up" this post. Dear android developers! Please, do not pass by

This would be a good idea for someone to fix, indeed.

well if you have headphones connected that has a button to play music that can be used to pickup a call

Recording a phone call

Hello anyone help me? I need to record a phone call, sure ive done it before and I cant find it in the book. can some one tell me how to ? thanks Peter.
when you go into the phone program in the buttom there is an icon which show an old mic
That just mutes my voice so the other person cant hear me speak. Thanks anyway.
Right I have sused it !!! start the conversation then press the notes button top left of XDA then press record on screen,. Thanks.
Record a call
Before you do anything. You need to press the Record button located on the left-top side as you hold the PDA facing you. It is remarked with the cassette mark.
As you get the next window. Select, switch to Notes.
:arrow:
You're done here. Close the window.
:arrow:
While on a call, press on the same buttone mentioned above and remember, by one press it switches to notes. Press and hold, it recordes the conversation both your and the caller voice.
Mind you that you cannot record the other end voice while on BT headset!!
Done..
Thanks, the only trouble with that is you have to keep you finger on the button. Peter

How to disable auto-redial via talk key on HTC Mogul?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to disable the redial capability of the green talk key on the front of my Mogul. Specifically, I would like to avoid accidental re-dials when my Mogul is bouncing around my briefcase. I have case for my Mogul, but it doesn't protect the talk key. Therefore, I simply want to disable the redial capability of the talk key, but still (hopefully) be able to answers calls by pressing it.
Any ideas?

Use a program to lock like S2U2. I would not do that reg hack to my phone.
Just turn on the keylock from your control panel. It'll lock all buttons except for the power button, but the call button will still work for incoming calls.
I'm with you. I would like to disable the redial also.
I'm currently using the 'lock' function and VJDeviceLock to automatically lock it.
S2U2 has 'holes' in it and I would still get redials. Plus it is a bit of overkill for what I needed.

Yes, that works, but for me the danger is after I've hung up and am still using the pda functions... one false double-tap of the green button and it's star-69-ville.

Turn off side buttons

Hi guys, I'm having troubles with one of the functions of the volume buttons on the side of the phone. When the phone is locked and someone rings me when I press either up or down I put the phone in silent - I want this thing off, it is pretty easy to accidently press it and miss a call - I did it a lot! Any help, please?

Take this one "AE Button Plus" : http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php

Thanks, mate! Is this program confirmed to work on touch2? I've read somewhere that it can mess all of my buttons if it is not designed for my device or something like that.
EDIT: Okay it works, but is there any app or registry that can allow me to turn off only the function "Mute" when someone is ringing? This things shuts down the buttons completely and I don't have a volume control when I'm in the windows

It works on my Touch2 perfectly !
Just a hint, I have only disabled the "volume-up" button. If you press "volume-down" first, then "volume-up" works as usual !

hello,
I have a very similar problem (using Touch2, T-Mobile, German version), although in may case the Volume Up button seems to dismiss the call (the caller is rerouted to my mailbox).
What I want is: simply deactivate the Volume Up button when the device is locked.
I read much about AE Buttons Plus, however I also read much about this app using up battery, and I don't want that. I really ONLY need this single feature, so I don't want to use a bloated app which cooks coffee, washes my cloths and so on... you know what I mean.
Anyone knows how I could do that? Is there a reg key or a tiny app just for this?
Or can anyone at least tell me how I can use AE Buttons Plus without the battery draining?
cheers,
Saiba

Phone call reject

Hello all,
The streak is awesome but there are little things that disrupt the experience.
that said when I receive calls if I decline it I don't want it to go directly to voicemail. I prefer it continue ringing even after I decline like a missed call.
Also is there s way to root the hardware buttons. I.d like to map the camera button to the camera or a voice recorder when pressed in any app
My phone is android 2.2.2 and not rooted.
I'd this possible?
if you don't want the caller to know that you are rejecting the call, you can simply press the volume button.
and i didn't really get your 2nd question. what are we trying to do with camera button?
Yes you can remap the button with a apk called button remap here on xda dell forum look in the apps and theme forum, but you have to be rooted.

[Q] is it possible to switch key functions

Hello everyone.
Last time my touchscreen stopped working. I figured out that every time i use 'end call key' my touch screen is not responding.
Question : Is it possible to switch key fundions? I mean... for example i want to make 'home' key my 'end call key' and vice versa. And if it is possible then how i can do it?
Check out Button Savior. I don't know about remapping hardware keys but this can give you software controls to get around it. There are also a tonne of screen lock widgets that could work, and some ROMs even have it built into quick settings on the notification drawer or the softkeys on ICS+ ROMs.

There used to be an app called button remapper on the play store but I can't find it now!!
Well anyway you can change the button mappings by editing the kepad layout file in /system/usr/keylayout/ folder.
Their will be a few their so you will have to figure out which one to edit for your rom.
Mine is htcleo_keypad.kl.
You will need a root explorer to do this, just open with a text editor!
Make sure to write down the mappings before starting then you can swap them about.
I am not sure but I think the power button isn't changeble but you can assign power to another key.
Ah, I was wondering if I had just gone crazy because I thought I remembered an app by that name but I couldn't find it.
