[Q] Regarding MIUI ROM and Menu Button - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I'm thinking of flashing a custom ROM and possibly going with MIUI, just wondering can I still long press menu button on SGS2 to search like I can in TouchWiz because it's a very handy feature seeing as there's no dedicated search button. It would be a real deal breaker if I can't.

I just installed MIUI and I really like it so far, but the bad news is that long pressing the menu button doesn't launch search by default and I haven't found a way to enable it in the setting yet
CM7 does support it though...

Remapp menu button?

I'm using the latest Omega v7.0.
Is there any possibility to remapp the menu button with the multitasking function? It's always a pain holding the homebutton down for many seconds and waiting until the multitasking interface will show up.
As the HTC One series I'd like to get some sort of menu buttons displayed on the screen if necerary.
C'mon guys anyone?
I wish someone can develop on this too... This is possibly the worst experience I have with my S3, the lack of multitask button.

[Q] Button Macros

Hi everyone... I'm loving my new sgs3, I have rooted it and installed CWM but I haven't seen a rom I like yet... this is due to button macros. I was originally A sgs 1 user with the 4 carrier buttons and the drop to 3 is something I'm trying to fix. I was wondering if there was a way to recreate all the functionality that was in the sgs 1 buttons.
long press search = voice
long press menu = keyboard
long press home = multitasking
Now since the search button is gone (R.I.P.) I was wondering if any ROMS used a long press on the back button to create the global voice access. I'm assuming there are not so I was also wondering if there was a form of button marco app or something to recreate it... or if anyone could give me a noob's guide on button addressing so I could modify CM to get back button search... Thanks again everyone, I know I'm living in the past but I just miss my global search access.

Long Press Home Button for Google Now Search

Im really loving the new goolge now search feature. I use it for lots lof things like texts, directions, timers, alarms and the sort. I was wondering if anyone was able to make the default long press of the home button linked to the search function. I was even hoping to have this available from a locked device, not password protected of course.
It most be a difficult mod since I've tried a lot of the roms, even those with hardware button options, and non are able to do it.
I'm not sure if you are using any rom like Stock ROM, but if you use any custom ROM based on Cyanogenmod ROM, then this should work.
Goto--> Settings-->Cyanogenmod Settings--> Hardware Keys --> Home button (Long press) ---> change the option to Search Assistant.
This Search Assistant, by default connects to Google Now (Its getting connected to Google Now in my device).

[Q] [I9001] add screenshot to stock-power-menu in gingerbread

Hey,
I currently use I9001XXKQ1_I9001XXKPI_I9001DBTKP1_HOME firmware for my SGS+ and I was wondering if I couls somehow either
add Screenshot to the Power-Menu like in ICS and JB
remap the screenshot
currently it is done by pressing the back-softkey and the homebutton. unfortunately the app reacts to them so I go back or exit the app.
Maybe it would be possible to map the action to volume down and power or so.
Best thing would still be in the Power-Menu since that effects no apps and is guaranteed to work.
