Hi,
I need some help with this, its kind of the other way around of what people usually like, I liked the scrolling with the volume buttons on the left side of the phone, I am running Energy Feb 4th version 21xxxx. Now the volume buttons do what they are meant to do but I wonder if there is a way to disable that volume function and send it back to scrolling so I can scroll up and down my emails and stuff.
Thanks!!!!
You tried to map the keys using AEBPlus?
I am sure many of you have seen reviews for the HTC One X. HTC constructed their device so that it has three capacitative buttons. Contrary to the usual array of capacitative buttons of Menu, Home and Back (sometimes Search as a fourth button), HTC opted for an unusual back, home and recents (multitasking display).
On the One X, if the phone opens up an application that requires a legacy menu button, the phone pulls up a software nav bar that has a single menu software button:

This configuration is possible on the i9000 through the following mods:
1) Remapping the Menu capacitative button to a Multitasking button:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450138
2) An autohiding nav bar with nothing but a menu button. I don't think an auto hiding nav bar has been implemented in a ROM as of yet, but AOKP roms allow for the manual hiding of the navbar. Problem is that when the navbar is hidden the os doesn't show those wonderful in app menu buttons in ics apps.
I tried the first mod out but can't for the life of me figure out how to mod source code (The limitations of a noob *sigh*). The result is a successful remapping of the menu key to a multitasking key but instead of opening up the ICS multitasking display I open up an old school gingerbread task switcher. Yuck. Unfortunately I don't have the android prowess to attempt the second mod. So can everyone please send this request to rom developers or better yet can somebody work on creating an APK or fool proof mod?
The first post looks similar to your problem.
I absolutely hate the fact that holding down the HOME button takes like 2 seconds to open the task switcher. A dedicated button is so much better. The delay is brutal—I always find myself hitting home and opening the app drawer to multitask instead. I wonder if there's a way to reduce this delay? That would be better than using the menu key, in my opinion.
But onto that matter, what downsides to we have of losing the menu key? When do we need it? Can we really go about with not having one? If the answer to that is yes, then I am all for implementing this bit of code into ROMs—since it doesn't do anything unless you change the key from MENU to APP_CHANGE or whatever.
Great idea here.
Great idea !

But should not it be in Themes & Apps section?

But alas this is only my fourth post. Limitations of a noob.
i think i would opt for ONe S
So I found some more updates to a possible solution to whoever wants to try.
Any rom based on AOKP has the ability to hide the nav bar manually. Problem is when the nav bar is hidden, the OS behaves as if a menu button is also present. So we don't get those nifty "three dot" menus in ics apps. Instead, it would be a step in the right direction if we can fool the OS into thinking that the nav bar is present. Maybe a completely invisible Nav Bar?

Yeah One S has scored better on benchmarks . Also One Xl is one the way.
So I came across this youtube video "20 tips and tricks for the htc one". I actually discovered a few things I didn't know about!

1. Tap the status bar to scroll to top of blinkfeed/app drawer
2. Swipe from top/bottom to change front/rear camera whilst in the camera app
3. You can split and merge event folders in the gallery
4. You can hold the shutter button when in the camera app to take a burst shot
5. Power button + home (or volume button) takes a screen shot
6. whilst watching a video you can hit the shutter button to take a photo
Some of these may already be widely known, but I didnt know about them and im a pretty long time HTC user.
Does anyone know how to remove the facebook crap from the gallery?
Please feel free to share your tips and tricks here!
Hey all,
- on a google search, when pressing the setting hardware button, settings of the launcher appear in the background ( for widgets etc.)
- same thing when pressing settings hardware button in the drawer
- random 3x vibrations
- too strong vibration feedback when pushing hardware buttons and drawer button
currently using Jamal's 4.4 , but its stock so i guess these things will appear on any stock 4.4
anyone noticed? are there some fixes aviable?
I am currently running Cyanogenmod 11, latest nightly.
Not sure when there was a change, but I recalled being able to use my volume rocker as a camera shutter button, but recently it appears that it zooms rather than takes a picture. Anybody know why this is? Or how to change it? Even while using cyanogenmod, I recall I used to be able to use the volume as a shutter, but recently I cannot.
Thanks for the help.

Look in the camera settings for a toggle to make the power button the shutter

I've looked and no such option exists. I've attached the camera settings that show up.
