[Q] Remapping hardware button for app switching

I've found many threads to remap buttons on devices, but I couldn't find any way to remap holding what the home button does.
I would like to change the search button to switching apps, instead of holding the home button. I've heard of APP_SWITCH, but that only shows recent apps (like gingerbread). I'm on a ICS rom and would like that functionality on the search button.
Thanks in advance.

Moving to Q&A
I'm looking for something like this for days now.
i now where i can change the function the search button is doing, but i have no idea to what i have to change that..
For someone with knowledge it shouldnt be hard to find out what a long home press is doing (script wise) and then we could just change the function of the search button..
I hope somebody with know how reads this, because its a great idea for, example the nexus s

Wanting to exploit my hard buttons

Hello .. my device has hard buttons (menu, home, back, and search).
Is there any software that will allow me to configure the phone to launch an application of my choice when I hold down the "menu" button?
Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: I have found that this is possible through Apex Launcher - but I am looking for a non-launcher-specific solution, something that would be compatible with TwLauncher.

[Q] Capacitive keys

hi.
I currently have a Samsung Vibrant. It has home, return, menu and search keys.
Now I look at the One, and I can see it has only the home and return keys, and doesn't have the menu key which is important for most apps.
Am I missing something?
Also the search key, I know some apps that don't have a search button and only way to search is to use the capacitive key. Would it make a problem with the One?
Thanks.

They are pushing to get rid of the menu button and have Devs incorporate it into their apps some way
If it doesn't have one you can hold down back to open the menu
Most apps already have a search bar if needed anyway

I take it you haven't seen any new smartphone since ICS came out. Google got rid of the menu and search keys, and instead added a multitasking key. However, in what seems like the most ridiculous move since the LG Optimus Vu, HTC decided to get rid of the multitasking key, which can now be emulated by double tapping home.
Also I heard you can initiate the menu key by doing a pull down gesture. Just don't include the notifications bar on your pull down.

[Q] App that makes my call answer button be push instead of slide

I am sick and tired of the sliding thing, I want to be able to answer a call by just pushing a button, no sliding no nothing.
Any apps?
Android 4.4.X
If your screen is on, it is a button, otherwise slide.
Don't know any other apps.

You touch the green phone instead of sliding etc.
