[Q] Plz help key mapping - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used a nexus device, and the multitaking button was very useful.
So, I want to use multitasking button in galaxy s4, too.
I changed the menu button to the multitaking button by fixing generic.kl.
But it is hard to use without a menu button, so I need more key mapping, and this needs to fix android.policy.jar.
1. I want long press of multitasking button(which was menu button) to bring the menu.
2. I want long press of home button to kill the last app.
3. I want long press of volume button to always skip music tracks. I know there is a way to make long press of volume button skip music tracks when the phone is in sleep mode. But I want long press of volume button to skip music tracks during games, internet, etc.
Plz help me to do it~
My aim is to make the xposed module.

BUTTONS app- Where are the other two?

When you run buttons application it tells you that you can customize button 1,2 and 3.
Button 1 is the Camera- which can easily be found.
Button 2 is set to voice commander which I would like to use but cant find
Button 3 is set to record which I also cannot find.
Sorry guys, I found them, Long press volum up and down gives you 1 & 2, somehow they forgot to mention this on the manual.
I am desperate for an ultimate keymapper for the touchdual though allowing you even to assign aps to the D-PAD would be awesome. Of course I would have them on long press only as to maintain its initial directional functions.
Thanks man, I thought that was it but I didn`t press long enough.
Hi
I have wondered about this buttons menu aswell
I would like to know what the other 3 buttons are which dont seem to have numbers
currently on my device they say :
Button <Ok/Close>
Button <Input Panel>
Button <Context Menu>
What are these ??
Hey,
I have a dutch dual, but i only have 1 button (camera).
is there a way to get the other two working since holding the volume up/down does nothing (not even repeating volume change)
I had no idea you could hold down the volume buttons. Thanks for the info

Assigning volume buttons as scrolling up/down

Is there possible to assign volume control buttons as up/down scrolling?
There can be options
- better is if on home screen they works as volume control, for applications as scrolling
- always scrolling
- scrolling only in certain applications
?
Also, is there possible device tilt for scrolling?
maybe you check "AE Button Plus". a lot of discusiion around here
Is is possible?
Yes it is possible - I use it.
I have set it up do do exactly as you as you ask where a "short press" of the up/down volume buttons will scroll up and down and a "long press" will change the volume as normal.
You can download it here http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
Thank you!
AE Button Plus is good application and it works, but it's not free.
Now I try HButton 2.3

Question guys,
How do I map the call button to long press (like the smallest long press ever) to get the Start menu?
Thanks

The unregistered function is almost fully functioning.
I recommend it.
I bought the app as I use it all the time and thought it fair to the developer even though I don't actually use the additional functions in the reg version.

You should be able to map long press send, long press end and long press power. It should work like the Fuze. Check out this articles but I bet it's identical:

Here's one on making it the start menu: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1249
The mapped long press buttons take 3 seconds or so...not sure it's great for that unless you try DredSensor but then you'd lose a physical button (short press) to something else...
Is the long press timeout option in the settings the time one has to "long press" in order to trigger what he sets? Coz you can set it from 200ms to 900ms. I am guessing this is the time required to trigger a long-press response/activation.
I would suggest you send an email to the AEB developer. I did once and he responded in the same day.
He could probably guide you much (v. much) better than I on all the options in AEB+ (including "long-key press mode")
thanks Dave.
For a temporary fix,(or perhaps a preferred alternative?) I have set up volume to scroll up and long press (which is barely a second) to start menu (shows quick menu not original start menu) and volume down to scroll down and long press of it to ok/action. This way I can pull down the start menu with a little press, scroll up/down and then select an item or enter the submenu using the down button.

N1 power button long press mapping!

Hi all
is there a way to map the power button long press functionality to a power control button or a simple widget on the home screen?
u know i usually don't touch power button to prevent it from getting broken; but now in CM7 the long press opens a box to choose the user profiles, and i need to have that option
thanks in advance

[Q] Change Functions Of Home Button?

I have a 9505G rooted, and I'd like to change the funcitons of the home button. Specificaly, there are two changes I'd like to make.
1. Disable the home button while the phone is locked. While the phone is locked and asleep, I can use either the power button or the home button to wake the phone. I want to disable the home button here, so that only the power button can wake the phone. I find that while my phone is in my pocket, it often wakes up "on its own", presumably because I'm accidnetally pressing the home button against my hip, chair, whatever...
2. Launch the recently-used apps list by holding the home button. On previous devices I've used (such as the Galaxy Nexus), holding down the home button would bring up the list of recently-used apps. With the S4GE, the long-press brings up Google Now, and a double-click is required for the recently-used apps list. I'd like to change this behavior so that a long-press brings up the recent app list, and double-click does nothing.
Can this be done, and if so, how? Thanks for your help.

Home Button remapping

Is it possible to change the home button long press function? The button mapping applications I've tried haven't seemed to stop the google assistant from popping up. In particular id like to set a long press of the home button to play/pause my music.
