Is it possible to disable the volume button and enable it instead to start/stop audio note taking?
Thanks
I want todo this exact thing. Any luck with responses?
No.
greatest invention
This is the greatest thing I've been told. Go get a pda, and make notes while your driving etc..
And then they go and remove the function. And replace it with a volume button that doesn't even work properly!!

Try this...
I dont't know if it will work but maybe you could try this little button mapping tool:

Give us an update if it worked!
No it doesn't. They seem to have removed the mapping id for the volume button. You used to be able to map it through control pannel in really old versions.
Anyone know what it used to be?
Workaround
Hi,
AFAIK it's not possible to use the volume button for other functions, but you'd be able to use another button for this.
I like to have the most common things within some klicks, so I used the calendar-button for audio-recording (you can switch to the calendar by clicking your appointments on the today-screen anyways).
Settings -> Buttons: Set Button 1 to Recording (not sure if the translation is correct, I'm using the german XDA)
Thanks
Thanks for the workaround, yes it works fine, even if I was expecting a start/stop function rather than a push and hold. But now I'm using it I prefer this method.
Mame can remap the volume button so it must be possible.
Been seeing a few people talk about the soft buttons getting in the way while using the pen. It's a matter of timing and the pen has to touch the screen before your hand does to keep the buttons from being activated.
However, I did see a review that mentioned something that would be great.
I'm sure that someone could write an app that would control which set of soft buttons would be activated based on rotation. Is this API open within the Flyer so that someone can control them?
In portrait mode I'd actually prefer that the buttons on the left side be active, and in landscape I'd prefer the buttons on the "bottom" of the Flyer be activated - this would be the reverse of the current implementation (actually I'd really prefer to be able to control both independently).
This would solve a few issues. It would prevent users from touching the buttons with their hand while writing, but it would also put the buttons next to your hand while you're holding the device instead of having to move your hand to access the buttons you'd be able to do it with your thumb.
That sounds like a clever idea. I would use that feature if it existed.
It is a fantastic idea, I would pay for it!
Hi everyone
I just changed the screen of my hd2 but when I put the cover the volume button doesn't work.. I can push it with a sharp object (screwdriver, toothpick) so in fact it's not broken but it's a bit boring tu up and down the volume..
I'm on android (ICS) and I want to know if there are any alternative "tweaks" to replace the "real" button ? Like on iPhone when your home button is broken you can download a tweak via cydia..
If someone can help me, it will be great
Thaaanks !
PS : Sorry for my english..
no one know ?
There are widgets and apps that you can use to change volume within Android, but if your device uses the volume buttons for CWM then you'll need the physical buttons working.
Well you should be able to go to your settings and volume options and adjust it that way, alternatively clicking on the clock on the bottom right corner should bring up a menu that volume is normally located.
@spunker88 Yes for cwm I use the physical buttons.. What's the names of the apps and widgets ?
@Bernie Nolan Thanks dude
But the main problem is when I'm doing a phone call I can't up/down the volume..
I use Volume widget, you can select which volume you want to adjust (music, ringer, etc) or have a widget with multiple volume toggles. Its pretty nice and free. During a call you would have to go back to the home screen to change volume.

Thank you I just downloaded an app on the market
Hi all,
I've recently started Android development for a personal project. The purpose is adding a custom launcher on my car's infotainement system (=Android system based on version 4.1.1).
Currently I'm searching for a way to capture input of one of the physical hardware buttons. There are two types of this button: one for controlling the volume and one for controlling the brightness of the screen.
In my launcher however, I'd like to use this second button for controlling the selection in the main menu, like BMW and Audi systems where you turn and push the knob. You can turn and push this button the same way.
The only question is: how can I capture these inputs in code? Buttons like HOME and BACK have predefined constants, but what about this 'turn'-button?
Any help is much appreciated!
Greetings!
PS:
As I'm new to the forum, I can't post an image (yet) to give you guys a better view of the button.
Nobody has any idea how I can accomplish this?
i have changed the Side Key function to the Power Off menu, but sometimes, i accidentally press the Volume up and power at the same time and end up getting a screenshot. is there any way to change the default key function for screenshot so that I can get it only when I really want one?
