No doubt it would require full root access, but it'd be very useful if the 3D Switch had a function outside of camera mode. One thought I had would be as a silent/vibrate toggle as found on the iphone. But that's a far cry from all the potential uses for it.

I was thinking maybe the camera button could be used for screenshots? That would be pretty awesome.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
maybe autobrightness and a user defined level would be sweet. also Setting up the camera button to do other things especially because its a dual stage button! we could have perform 2 seperate functions!
Any updates on this? Just got the 3d and I have miui running. The switch is now literally pointless. Any way we could make it a vibrate/sound toggle? Wifi on/off switch? Customizable switch? I just want all of my buttons to have a point in being a button.
Would it be possible to do with one of those Remap button apps?

Go to your browser and type "about:debug" without the quotes and press enter. Then press your menu button and go to settings. Scroll all the way down and enable it, then load up any page and rotate your screen.

The rotation animation:

What interests me more is that apparently, we've had a built-in screen-capture function that wasn't enabled by default. (It works perfectly, FYI, in the same settings menu.)

I thought I was gonna hurl the thing out a window when I first got it. Now I use the recent apps button all the time. I sure miss having them rotate though
And I agree, I miss the search button.
Long press on the home button for recent apps is more efficient use of the buttons. Then the recent apps button could be search.

Unless I am mistaken, this is how the "3-button mod" works. It will be another benefit of the pending root.

quick setting and htc on sense4/4.1/4/5/4+ has been an oddity for sure across the one series and other phones
on random ota/roms they enable it, others they disable it, others they completely remove the code
many sense4.1 ota's enabled a toggle in settings that allowed for switching of "recent" apps to menu...ours didnt for some reason
once you are rooted, custom roms fix this issue...and viperRom allows you to completely remap the long presses of all 3 buttons, and select what you want the menu to be
cant wait for root then

This is a mod how to enable navigation bar(on screen buttons) , its very simple and easy...
Add the following line at the end of buid.prop file
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
now on reboot we will have nav-bar like on nexus 4
To disable hardware keys, I used root explorer go to system/usr/keylayout click and hold on kaypad.nl and choose from menu open in text editor and 139,158,172 edit the home to hom and do the same on all 3 lines and hit save and reboot,
Plus I went and deleted all the 139, 158, 172 lines from external_kbd.kl, Generic.kl, MHLRCP.kl, osp3-input.kl and qwerty.kl. I dont know if that helps because I deleted them first then edited the lines in kaypad.nl.
Thanx to accentuer he made a zip that works also and might be easier for some people

If you would prefer they didn't you could always turn them off in settings>display>front key light.
As having both seems redundant.
Does this mod disable the hardware keys, I'll do it but no point in having on screen keys and hardware keys.

With all due respect, for me it takes up screen space I would prefer not to give up. It is a matter of personal preference and options are always a good thing.

I assume all your apps will automatically reconfigure to account for the different screen dimentions?
Hmm, tough choice: give up some screen real estate to gain a dedicated task switcher button and context menu button.

If you don't mind trying something, you could open /system/usr/keylayout/keypad_8064.kl in a text editor and put a "#" (without the quotes) at the beginning of the last 3 lines.
Change:
Code:
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
To
Code:
#key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
#key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
I have not tried this as I don't have any plans to use this mod... may want to do a quick backup first in case it renders your phone unnavigable.
You may also still have to turn off the backlights in settings>display>front key light.

In case any developers are looking for new ideas to fold in....
I would like to see a custom circular menu surround the spen tip when I long press and have about 12 customizable options in the "full circle" menu. It seems like a waste that long press with the pen does the exact same thing as my finger. Something like Pie but full circle.
What do you want to see?

I'd like to see the AOKP octo lock screen with customizable shortcuts/apps and icons as well as the AOKP toggles in touchwiz roms
How about google wallet? JK I would like to see an option for a stock jellybean note 2 with s-pen capabilities, or maybe a siri like feature that works better than S-Voice. For the love of god im from michigan and have a "normal" accent and that stupid thing CANNOT ever get what I say right, Siri never had any problems during my brief stint on an iphone 5, neither does the google now.
The lmt launcher is only thing I added. That's the only thing the note 2 is missing. Something that keeps you from reaching across the device for the back key.
I would love for the Note 2 to allow any app for the Multi-View function w/out root... =)

I feel the tablet mode mod that exists now leaves something to be desired. That's not to say that I don't appreciate whoever came up with it to begin with, I would just like a little more polish.

Viper Rom let's you change what the button does. Symbol won't change though. You can also program long press and double press. I've got back, menu, home, screen off, voice, recents, and kill app all programmed to them.
