[Q] No silent / vibrate options on long press switch button - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After installing Android 5 manually with Odin 3.09, I noticed that there is no option to switch to silent or vibration upon long pressing the switch on/off button. I only see

Any clues?

Assign flight mode option to a button

Is it possible to assign the flight mode option (gsm off, pda on) to a button? Now it's only possible to add applications to a button but I can't find the application that will start/stop the gsm.

Power button and airplane mode

When I lockmy phone, either with slide2unlock or the actual lock button on today screen, it locks all buttons except the power button. Then I am working listening to mp3's and I accidentally hit power button, it turns off screen, not phone entirely. When it does that that kills my music, then I have to hit power real quick to turn back on, anyway to disable power button? Also even with keys locked, it still wil go in airplane mode if end buttone held down, but this only happens when using slide2unlock, got any ideas?
So to recaqp, want to disable power button.
Want airplanemode to not happen while using slide2unlock, thanks for any help
for plane mode you can use this reg key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/PhoneExtendFunction/CDMA/
set FlightModeSwitchByPnHEndKey to 0
it will prevent the phone from entering plane mode by holding the end call button
cant help with the power button, on mine sometimes it will go to sleep and keep playing, other times it will stop, i havent noticed a pattern yet
wow, thanks. been looking for this forever. it appears a soft reset is required after the reistry change, at least for me.

Silence Mode - BOC3/C5

So, as we all now, Samsung has brought back the silence mode with the update BOC 3/BOC 5.
But the problem is, the only way that we can select the silence mode is through the Notification Panel or on Settings. We can't press and hold the volume - button to get the silence mode (like kitkat), we'll stop at vibration mode. :crying:
So, i was wondering if someone could fix this problem ?
it's possible to have back the silence mode through the volume button or no ?
Thanks so much !

As long as I remember, in kitkat also volume button was stopping at vibration.

Disable power button menu and volume keys when screen is locked

Hi,
I installed an anti-theft tracking app on my phone but I can't disable the "airplane mode, sound, reboot, shutdown" menu (that appears when you long-press the power button) and the volume rocker, when the device is locked but the screen is on... so anyone can just shutdown my phone or mute the ringtone or put it in airplane mode and that makes the tracking app useless.
I tried using "Smart lockscreen protector" by nez droid but it doesn't work.
Is there a way to disable these "features"?
Thanks
Edit:
I have root and bootloader unlocked if this helps
