I need to interact with a flash page and the flash runs great its just when I click on an empty space to type the keyboard doesn't immerge like normal and I figure that's part of flash not being supported I'm jelly bean but I know in pre-ICS android you could press and hold menu to force the keyboard up is there any trick like this on jelly bean or any work around would be very much appreciated.

With "Button Savior" (from Google Play) you can get on-screen menu button that makes enabling the soft keyboard possible

That didn't work for me. Long pressing the menu button no longer brings up the keyboard and it didn't have the option for a custom button to do such a thing?

Ok, maybe the keyboard can't be force opened on JellyBean...
(I forgot this thread was for Nexus 7 only so my test was done on ICS and different device)

I just get my new Nexus 4 recently, and when I first used it, I noticed the only way to wake up the phone is to press the power button....
which I dont like,I prefer to swipe it and the phone will light up.....
So I search this forum and some people recommend the Touch Control app....
So I root my device and install the free trial version of Touch Control....
Then I removed this app, and now I found out my phone can still be wake up by swiping across the screen....
A bit surprised and confused....has any one experienced this?
Install it again, and check the settings to see if you can disable it. Then uninstall

I wasn't sure how to search for this, but for certain games a new Nav Bar button pops up next to the back button (the one with the horizontal lines stacked together). Whenever I press it nothing happens. Anyone know what this button is for?
I'm also running AOKP on a Nexus 10.
On Samsung touchwiz tablets it's the menu button. Same thing as the three vertical dots on stock Android. It typically only shows up when there's a menu to use, so I'm not sure why it isn't doing anything.

It looks like the modify keyboard icon.
It's an AOKP thing

Just whatever you do....don't press the red button!

Hi everyone,
Since I use a menu button in my navbar, I was wondering if there was a mod, that I could flash to remove the 3 dot menu. If there are none, I am willing to do it myself and have tried the following methods but they don't work for me. So if anyone knows of a mod or a guide, that would be great:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297692
The above link was the only one I could find, the rest mostly relate to HTC One threads.
Rom: Vanir Nighlty, Android 4.3 (AOSP Base)
EDIT 1: Here are the steps I tried:
To remove 3-dot menu:
Decompile your framework-res.apk
Go to values folder
Open bools.xml
Search for
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">true</bool>
and change it to
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">false</bool>
Recompile your framework-res.apk
I also made sure to sign the apk and zipalign it before putting it in a flashable zip
One thing I also tried, it was a long shot & it didn't work but I decompiled the framework of an MIUI rom since they have it enabled, and tried taking a few things from there but it didn't work
EDIT 2: I have already tried editing the build prop with a line from a HTC thread but it didn't work (phone wouldn't turn on)
Also, if anyone knows where menu-related stuff is within framework res that would be great because that would be a good place to test. (That's if the solution lies within framework res)
EDIT 3: Update: AOKP unofficial 14th September (4.3) still has the bug

Thanks xanthrax but I already tried that a while ago, I edited the build prop and my phone wouldn't turn on, so the search continues.....
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that the overflow menus you are referring to is coded into the app and not really dependent on anything else. Meaning that it is part of the app itself and not something the OS shows. Isn't that what Google's android interface guidelines suggests?

I'm not a dev or app developer so I can't really comment on that. But I do know that some roms do have this feature on 4.3, it's just that it it doesn't work.
So im pretty sure the answer lies within the rom itself, not the apps maybe. Although im not even sure if the solution lies within framework res, it could be system ui or even at source, in git, which would make it out of my hands
I know that there are roms that can add the menus button permanently to the nav bar (PA can do this) but I have never seen one get rid of the menu overflow button within any apps themselves. Even back to 4.2 roms I never saw that type of behavior.
In fact now that I think about it when I still had my GS3 which has a physical menu button there still was the menu overflow button in some apps because that is what Google's app guidelines say to do.
Edit - I think what you are seeing about the htc one is about removing the black onscreen nav bar that shows up in apps that don't use the menu overflow button on app because the htc one has hardware keys but not a menu key.

There are roms on 4.2 that can remove the 3 dot menu because I used them. All roms (Or at least most) on 4.2 based off AOKP have the feature, i used to use Rootbox rom on 4.2.2 and Xylon rom and the feature worked perfectly. But if you look now on 4.3 AOKP builds, it just doesn't work for some reason

The apps seem to know if the phone has a menu button or not.
Just throwing this out there but PAC has the overflow menu disabled by default!
If there was a way to port this to other roms I would be ecstatic!
But alas I do not know how to cherry pick commits and I have no idea where the commit is in PAC's GIT
You find me that commit and I might be able to add it and build it with a friend of mines help.
Sideloaded Android 4.4.1 over 4.4 (stock, un-rooted). On pressing the Phone application the options are properly displayed. But on clicking the Dialer button at the bottom center, the dialpad is missing.
You need to press back and click it again for the dialpad to appear.
Anyone else noticed?
