Yes. Lock your phone or turn it off by pressed the power button once. Or you can search on here and google for one of the button mapper programs. Simply pressing the power button should work.
thanks for the quick reply, I do that sometimes but problem is that when i get a call or a txt i end up pressing the IE button thats why i was looking for a fix or something so I can make IE button press and hold to open. thanks.
AEButton Plus will let you program it for Single, Double, Triple, and/or Long Press.
You could also simply disable the button using the stock Menu->Settings->Buttons utility.

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.

Hard buttons & trackball functionality-Looking for Long PRESS

Hunting around for solution but surprisingly all seems to be happy with button layouts. Currently my buttons are:
1) Long press SEARCH - dialer One
2) Long press HOME - visual task swither
3) Long press MENU - brings keyboard (default)
4) Long press BACK - ???
Can we assign something on long press BACK? Sleep????
Is there solution for long press MENU to assign something other than coming out with keyboard? I'm thinking about Peoples/contacts.
As for trackball, currently I'm using to wake up with a press. I don't know why but I'm really struggling almost everytime to reach and press power button on top. One more I would much prefer and very happy is to ANSWER calls with a press of trackball while at lockscreen. Perfect!
Many thanks if can point to some directions.
I'm pretty sure similar to the Home Long Press, Back and Menu Long Press are impossible to change system-wide without hacking Android itself (like Home Long Press had to be).

Download an app that can use Search Long Press and the next time you press it, Android will ask which app you want to use.

[Q] Double tapping on the home button

Hey guys,
Is there a way to handle the double tapping of the home button action to be others? Because I want to use this application Quickdesk Pro but S2 does not have a search button where I can long press it to trigger this application. So how do I actually use this application?
Thanks in advance.
search button?
long press menu key?
Yeah.. but long press menu button can't trigger the application itself.
Anyone know about this?
Google is your friend:
http://android.modaco.com/content/s...odaco-com/340047/take-control-of-home-button/
works on KE2
Tried installing it but to no avail. Still unable to use Quickdesk on double tap of the home button.
Anyone know about this issue?
