Turn off the LED on the hardware button

Anybody know know to turn off the LED on the hardware buttion like Start, OK, and IE.
Any kind of registry setting that will turn off that light on those button?
I'm curious why you would want to take away such a useful things away. Currently I use all the hardware button and wish there are more available. I use it for things such as changing SIP, rotate screen, start IGO, and control myp3 (such as volume up, volume down, next song,previous song,blank out screen, bring up the playlist,pause, unpause. This is while the device remains inside my belt pouch). The ok button is extremely useful in doing things such as hiding the phone application after use. Similarly if you're using program such as VITO fun contact, you could hide it after use without having to exit this extremely memory tiny application and able to instantly access your contact again anytime. Why would you want to disable all these useful features?

I suppose he just wants to turn off the light of the buttons to gain some more battery time, not to disable their use. Though I doubt you would gain so much by disabling the leds.
I noticed a gain in battery time when I disabled the blinking LEDs, but they blink all the time unlike the button LEDs which are only on sporadically. So I agree that disabling the button LEDs won't gain you anything.
I just think that the LED or the light is annoying. I didn't mean to disable the function.
The light around the joystick is fine. So any solution ??

I don't think the keyboard has backlight. There is no light at all as I know....So this is not an option.

[Q] Is there a way to remap the camera button?

Is there a way to remap the camera button?
I'm using Launcher Pro and have the notification bar hidden. Does any know if it is possible to remap the camera button on the side to show notifications?
That would be useful. I also hope there's a way to remap the volume buttons as music controls.

How about this: long click on your app drawer icon and when options show up, click "swipe gesture" , then one of the options should be "display notification" or some thing of that sort. Then whenever u need to display notification, just swipe the app launcher icon upwards and voila

I use the TASKER app to set my camera button to function differently. In my case, I use it to open a menu of different camera apps when I depress the button.

[Q] How do you handle not having a menu button?

Many uses I'm missing out on. Example if I'm browsing a site and want to open another window, what do I do?
Or
While in any app how would I access the menu or option settings?
What ROM are you using? If it's stock B&N software, is it rooted?
If you're using CyanogenMod, then you can turn on a set of buttons in the status bar that will replace the missing hardware buttons, much like on a Honeycomb device. It's in the Settings menu under Tablet Tweaks.
If you're using stock, you can install an app called SoftKeys or Button Savior and have it pop up a set of on-screen keys (menu, search, back, home, etc) whenever you press the "n" hardware button. You won't be able to install either unless you've rooted the device first, though.
Two applications: Button Savior or Soft Keys
I'm probably in the minority here, but I'm a big fan of zMooth.
You could also search for Nook Color keysmod and remap one of your volume buttons as Menu.
Keysmod is what works best. You'll have both menu and back buttons that's so convenient especially in landscape. Partner it with recent plus for adjusting volumes in-game and invisibright whenever you can pull up your notification bar.

I use "Virtual Button Bar" in MIUI. it can be set to extend the buttons from a trigger point, or to be permanently extended and float.

ICS Hardware Button

Hi,
I'm using [17.02.2012[MAGLDR][SD] IceCreamTostidroid v7.0] build.
But I've got a problem with the hardware Home-Button.
Everytime I press it, the screen turned off.
Does anyone know how I change the acton of the Home-Button?
Regards
It's right!..It's to enable the Torch function!
Try to long-press Home Button while screen is off!
And if you want to change this behavior search in his thread!

Disable Softkey illumination and vibration

Just installed 4.3 GE on my i9505.
However one niggle with it is the menu and back button illuminate, on touchwiz there is an option to make it so they never light up.
Also whenever these buttons are pressed (touched) they vibrate, they didnt do this on touchwiz....
Anyone know how to stop the above?
I belive this is what you are looking for..
Disabling haptic feedback in powersaving options should stop the "viabration" on using softkeys.
