I want to bring it back to older device function just like calling app's "Context menu" instead of calling "Recent Apps".
Is there a way to change galaxy s5's menu button function? (especially without rooting)
Somebody knows why it is changed and is it changed in recent android os or recent samsung device or only galaxy s5?
you can use key remapping but that's requires root access, i don't think there is a way to do it without rooting your device
maybe someone else can help you sorry
just for your information the menu button is still there just press and hold the recent app button for few seconds and it will pop tried it on my S5

It's setup that way, you have to manually configure the setting for Button 5.
Go to settings > buttons.
The program will show two Button 5's:
Button 5 (Press and Hold) File Explorer
Button 5 {configure as needed}
That should get you going.

With the "official" AT&T WM6 ROM, the traditional PTT Fix doesn't work.
Just an FYI for everyone else who wants to try to answer this.
However, stesul411 did provide the correct link to the updated version that will work.
Hello,
I have a Dopod D810 and would like to change the behaviour of one of the buttons on my device.
Currently pressing and releasing Button 2 once (right-hand side, towards base) will launch the Camera:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What I would like to do is to is change the Camera to only launch when Button 2 is set to 'Press & Hold', much in the same way <Rotate Screen> is currently set up. How do I add a button definition for 'Button 2 (Press & Hold)'?
BTW, tried installing AE Button Plus but it's waaaay too complicated for what I need!
Thanks in advance!
*bump*
Anyone?
I think you really need to use third party software, because HTC doesn't allow to have a 2nd function to camera button. I use AEButton plus and it's not that complicated, you'll have the chance to also assign a function to a double press. I use the voice dial, camera and softkeys mapped. BTW by mapping camera button you'll have to use the action button for pictures.
Hi,
I'm trying to remap my left softkey to the phone application.
What path do I need to find the Phone application? I can't find it.
Just te be clear:
I'd like my left soft key on the today screen to link to this app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Where can I find the right path?
Errrm...why do you want a softkey link to the Phone? just pressing the dial button will start it...
anyway, Phone is somewhere in the Windows directory if I remember correctly(I recall seeing it there once...).

Old habits I guess, I want a Phone button on my screen.
I can't find one in the Windows directory (latest PDAViet rom).
I just fixed it by linking to
\Windows\Start Menu\Phone.lnk
That's a way to have it work too...
So I've been working on a theme to post at mycolorscreen.com and when I was creating the wallpapers I took a screenshot
to get the exact size of the screen not realizing the soft key buttons covered the bottom portion of my theme (in Tablet UI).
I can get around using Apex Actions to see my recent apps and quick settings, but the problem is when I'm in expandable
desktop mode and I'm using an app I don't have the back or home button therefore I have to hold down the power button and
get out of expandable desktop mode and its just a pain in the butt and such a hassel. My question is is there anyway I can
use my volume up button for home and the volume down for back? Or perhaps an app someone knows off that could help me
with my situation?
Thanks in advance, elRei
Flash the latest Paranoid beta (v2.99 1/14/13) and turn on pie controls under Settings>Toolbars and you'll have this when swiping from the bottom of the screen in expanded desktop mode.

Does anyone know how to remap the long press back key function? Stock behavior is to disable/enable multi-window.
The only option I can seem to find is to map it to kill the current app, but I want to remap it to show the menu. That would enable me to use the phone one-handed probably 95% of the time.
TIA!

If you're rooted you can install Xposed Framework and then use the Xposed Additions module to remap the buttons and long press actions.

Awesome I didn't see that module! Thanks! :good:
Has anyone gotten this to work? On my Note 3, it won't intercept the back or menu hardware buttons...
