Request (button remapper) - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used to see many apps like this with an easy search.. For some reason I can't find one.
G2 comes with volume down as your camera button, I'm jumping around on many roms that disable this, how can I rebind volume down to be my volume and camera button again?
Huge help! Thanks

Either edit the keymaps directly in the systems folder, or use Xposed Additions.

I know cyanogen mod adds reboot to the power button but im not sure how you can add it to other roms. Sorry
I have been using an app called Quick Boot by Sirius Applications Ltd it is free in the market. It lets you do a reboot, boot into Recovery and Boot into Bootoader just by launching the app. small and simple.
yea i know about quick boo i have it too but just thot it was more convenient to already have it on the power button...
also i had other stuff like turning on hotspot and other options i cant remember...

Way to switch hardware keyboards functions?

So I just installed DOSBox on my phone and the program doesn't recognise the 'FN' button making characters like : and / impossible. Is there any way to make them a one touch option on the keyboard?

I have found a way. Holding down the 'FN' button and hitting h or d works.
Please delete this thread mods

[Q] Making the volume Buttons more productive...

Is it possible to change the function of the Volume Control Buttons?
I find their existance to be the most useless thign ever, I never have my phone off top volume...unless I have muted it...
So, any chance of making these do something more useful?
I've had a quick search, but I'm pretty dumb!
Use Lockbot Pro..its a customisable lock screen for Wildfire..it also lets us wake/unlock the screen using volume buttons...
Jamie,
I had a HTC Magic, which drowned in Greece salty water.
I managed to do the CPR, but the volume buttons died but the phone is stil working.
I cannot tell you how annoying is to not have volume buttons when u need it ....
I installed an application that can modify volume.

You can use the volume buttons to change tracks in latest CM7 nightlys.

Hi there has anybody managed to modify the HTC camera app to take pictures using the physical buttons on the phone I.E the power or volume buttons?
If not is there another way of me doing this? Many thanks
Cyanogenmod camera allows you to do this...
That's true, can we get the apk and instal it?

Can you clarify a little? I don't get what exactly you want to do.
I think he means the menu button on navbar.. Long press latest button for menu

Its redundant now since nearly every app has the 3 dots menu on top right
I personally like it on the bottom and I'm sure a bunch of others do too.
Keep pressed the recent button and you will have menu settings.

What if you want to quickly change settings in Nova, or one of many other apps? Long pressing the recents button is very convenient.
I still like to have the good old menu button there, I got used to it and I don't want to move my finger all the way to the top and have to grip the phone differently to hit menu..
So my order of buttons is this(from the left) - recent - back - home - menu -
I use g2 xposed to do that... So untill I can modify this on the g3 rom i will keep using the cloudyflex rom.

G2 Xposed is the best way to do this, but won't work with that ROM. Also I wouldn't get used to having that button. Google will likely pull the code in the next version or two so even ROM developers couldn't effectively make a consistent experience. It's only in there for backwards compatibility now for phones with the physical menu button.
