I have no idea how this happened but whenever I press the search key or the settings key (the 1st key that has 2 squares on it) it activates my camera.. this makes it VERY hard to change the settings of certain apps because it automatically closes the app I'm trying to configure and opens up my camera.. any idea how I can this back? I'm fairly new I've only had my phone for a couple of days.
I think so moisture has short circuited your phone's pcb.Take it to lg service centre(assuming u haven't installed any custom rom).

The wires from buttons are connected to pcb.
If you are using CyanogenMod you probably changed settings under CyanogenMod settings > Input. There is an application for key remapping, I can't remember the name right now but you can search in the Apps section in the general android forum or in the market. Otherwise it's thruly PCB. Before taking to service center, try flashing another ROM and/or wiping data.
look in /system/usr/keylayout/thunder_keypad.kl and replace CAMERA with MENU/SEARCH. It should work

Hey,
I was wondering if there is any way that one could develop an android application for X10 running constantly which replaces the physical hard keys( menu, home & back) with buttons on touch screen?

And what would you do with the hard keys?
But you'll still have the physical ones.. so what's the point?
Yeah
You know its much easier to touch the screen than pressing the hard keys
Like windows mobile...

Not really, what happens when you open an app, how would you get back to the home screen.
remove the battery?
Thats why i saying there is a need of constant running & visible application...
If u have ever used a win mobile u would know qhat exactly i mean...
There is a similar concept already as there is a task manager on android market that has all time visible button in right side of screen to lunch the task manager

search SOFT HOME in the market, but you need another app BarTender in order for it to work.

Hello,
Is there any way to get rid of that ******* hold button on freex10 . i have pressed it like numerous times and it wont take long before i really bang my head on the wall .
Can we replace the phone apk ( i dont know what it is really called , Dialer app?)
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Two things, is the proximity sensor on the phone working? IE, does the phone screen black out when u put it up to your face?? If NOT, that is the main issue.
Two, you can go into settings and change the layout of the dialer for left or right handed and move the hold button away from your face!
Hope this helps,
Chris

Its not there :S i am using beta 4 freex10.. is something missing here :S
Still should be there on 2.2 roms, phone settings, scroll to bottom of the page, left handed option?? Hmmmm, not sure what dialers are in the market, my wife used an ed hardy themed dialer, but that was on 2.1fw... might be an option?

I did check many a times ... i don't have this option . don't know why.. and think there is no way to over-ride the stock dialer app which shows ON-CALL . i am i wrong here ?( i wish i am )
and why is my right handed/left handed setting is missing ? "confused"
Haven't run z's rom since first beta, but on other aosp based 2.2's its there n on my 6.1.1cm rom I just looked it up..... hmmm, I am stumped... hit android market, should have a dialer option or two!!
Sent from my xperia using XDA App
i can CONFIRM that the settings ARE in FreeX10 Beta 4.
Go to your homescreens -->> press menu -->> settings -->> call settings -->> check left-hand mode (2nd last before "other call settings") -->> reboot
I have the same problem with the same rom. Yesterday I lost half of my story because of this . Changing the settings is not an option because I tend to switch sides a lot during a call. Might try another dialer.

Hello!
I have Xperia Active and since it goes underwater this da*n touch keys activate themselfs when they touch water.
But when they'r wet and I touch them - they don't work!
So I got "Button savior" app for that.
The problem is...I start recording out of the water and when I put ma phone underwater back or home button activates itself and closes the camera.
Is there any way to disable touch keys?
Looked in system files with root browser but I think I didn't found anything.
hw_config.sh I tought, but nothing in there.
So I'm asking 4 help here!
what to change and where to deactivate those keys?
c'mon I know that some dev could know something more than me
just help me where to look in system files...
Bump, anyone?

Since kernel is actually driver for communication between HW and SW, is there any room for modding it to disable the keys?
I thought something like CWM, a menu where you could disable those.

It's possible if you use miui, there's an option for that.. I will try to search something similar for other roms, but probably you will need root..

I have the same problem: how to shoot videos underwater? When the water touches screen, camera app immediately shuts down
C'mon, lots of devs out here but no1 knows? What to edit in key layout or where to look?
Sent using Xperia Active and XDA app.
Use miui rom. There's a option for disabling the softkeys. I tried it and it worked.
Sent from my ST17i using xda premium
Got the solution!
I just edit the key numbers in system/usr/keylayout/cyttsp_key.kl
To disable back and home touch keys, just change 158 and 102 to 000.
I think changing VIRTUAL to WAKE could also work.
Then you just need to reboot and have Button savior ready!
It would be awesome if some1 would make a script or app to do that.
Yes
In MIUI roms it works! just go to settings and click on the "block buttons" icon.... :highfive:
You did not understand me.
I do not have MIUI on my phone and don't want to have it.
I found a way for every other ROM, as it is written in post before.
Is their anyway to remove the 3 sony buttons that are in the middle of the home screen?
Could you please clarify: Which Sony buttons? Do you mean the Mini Apps at the bottom of the screen? Or do you have some shortcuts in the middle of the screen? What happens when you long-press them?
The "Back, Home and Recent Apps buttons" yes you can if you have a rooted tab, you can try searching Google Play for: Tags: Honeybar, Remove Honeybar, there is one app that can do this.
No you can't those are system apps, you could try it with a rooted devices but i can assure you this can give you major problems, but you can also try to block those apps except the ? app and 2 other apps ( forgotten which names ) hhmmppf,, but these 3 are links, if you block one of these apps, the other two will be blocked to so i always use sony webpage urls from the app drawer, so i can't remove the other two , this is the safest way

As mentioned before, if you are talking about the Back, Home and Recent Apps buttons, then you probably shouldn't. They are important parts of the Android OS and navigation is difficult without them.
try kill or rename /system/app/SystemUI.apk.

POssibly not a great idea as SystemUI is a very important framework file and can sometimes lead to bootloops if its missing or damaged. Just my experience.
Yeah. Terrible idea. Deleting or renaming that file will knacker your tablet.

Ah right. Don't have ICS on my Tablet yet so I'm not sure about them. However, if previous software has been any indication, there would not be any way to remove those buttons without some serious ROM modification, and a few framework changes, all of which would be quite complex on a device as locked down as the S.
Anybody knows ROM for Rezounds which have broken bottom buttons, where software buttons (like nexus 4 buttons) will be integrated and used by default.
You can say I can activate them in build.prop, YES - but thay will disappear after hardreset and also this can cause problems with image in some apps (for example when I have activated soft buttons in my LG LS970 it caused camera app to show decreased and shifted picture)
I seem to recall reading about an app that adds soft buttons. No idea what it was called though. Maybe try searching this thread and the general forum...
