Hey is there anyway to disable the soft keys? Not just the back light but disable it completely.. I'm using aokp by team adreno ace(based on 4.0)

Maybe someone could write a script to disable input from the soft keys.
Another way is that you could break off the lower part of the phone

Did this always happen since you flash? Did it spontaneously appear? Info please.
No It did not happened since I flashed cm7.I think I m not sure but it started to happen after I fixed permissions in cwm............

And why did you fix permissions when there is nothing to fix.

You need to reflash. Fixing will set to standard, cm7 isnt standard.

For problem 2, you can try clearing data of your camera app in manage application.
For problem 4, you need to go to spare parts and select end button behavior to sleep.

[Q] Why is it our sgs2 doesn't have the true CRT screen off effect?

Title says it all really. I know we can have the screen of effect working but it flashes pure white rather than flinging the colours on the screen at the time. I would just like clarification as to why, i'm not moaning, just asking.
Thanks in advance.

Bump.........
Good question...
Because Samsung has decided not to use this effect.
The effect is written in c and is located in the surfaceflinger libraries. It uses gl and is hardware depended.
So why should Samsung implement a fix for an effect they don't even use.

Try calibrating your sensors, they may have been corrupted during upgrade so phone doesn't know it's being rotated. All the best.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
if you're still on stock rom and stock kernel so your currunt kernel can still do these two :
1)wipe cache(try this one only first time, if it presists ,then do both next time)
2)wipe data/factory reset ( take a back up of your contacts and messeges )
to get into kernel recovery mode = ( hold this combination while ur phone is turned off :volume up + home + power ,hold these till u see the S2 splash screen, as soon as u see it , release the button combination immediately )
in recovery mode u can move up and down using volume keys and select either with home or power button

[Q] Limit access to one app

I'm trying to help out a friend, she is thinking about giving her grandfather an old android based phone. Her plan is so that he can use it to only access internet radio stations across wifi, he won't need the phone side of it.
In order to simplify his usage, is it possible to make it so that the radio app is front and centre the whole time? Ideally, pressing the home button would have no effect meaning that he would stay in the radio app the whole time.
I realise that I'm probably looking for some kind of parental controls for kids app but I would like to have a few pointers to narrow the list down a bit.
Thanks for any help given
Based on my memory, I remembered that there is an app that can modify the buttons. The only problem is that the app requires a rooted android

That's ok, the phone itself is already rooted, courtesy of XDA
Can you remember the name of the app?
If I'm not wrong, it's a tweak that came with the rom

[HOW TO] Enable soft keys on Droid DNA CM10.1

THIS INCLUDES MODIFYING BUILD.PROP AND SYNAPTICS-RMI-TOUCHSCREEN.KL SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BACKUPS!!
I thought i might share this to everyone since i tested it and it works nicely for me so far
1) Go to your build.prop using root explorer or any app that allows access to system files
2) Go to the bottom of the file, and enter the following without the quotes "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP IN CASE SOMETHING DOESNT WORK OUT)
3) Find "Synaptics-rmi-touchscreen.kl" located at (system>usr>keylayout) that controls the capacitive keys. Delete everything by editing it with a text editor
4) Reboot and you should have softkeys with the capacitive ones disabled
*I used this app http://goo.gl/JUWqs to disable the capacitive lights*
**If you wish to kepp the capacitive keys enabled skip step 3**
**to Reverse this just replace the build.prop with your backup and replace your Synaptics-rmi-touchscreen.kl with your backup**
Enjoy
This would be great in conjunction with enabling some gestures in the capacitive area a la WebOS

I sure do hate sense, but this feature if ever somehow made available for a sense rom it would make it a little better, because im not ever really expecting to get e fully functional AOSP based rom anytime soon.

I doubt the camera will ever be fully functional, which is a no go for me, I can live without Bluetooth, but I need the camera for work.
Any idea why the menu button won't do nothing it just vibrates

Chad has said the exact opposite in the development thread.

Okay, so on any jelly bean device with soft keys, pushing up from the home soft key brings up a little ring with google now on it. Is there any way to enable this functionality with the hardware keys? It's kind of weird having both hardware and soft keys but I really like this functionality.
Any way to shrink the height of the nav bar? It's a bit too tall for my liking.

That's odd. I was able to disable the lights. I have my PAC-Rom on Phablet mode. The app allowed me to shut them off and I was wondering, now that we got soft keys, I kinda want to cover the capacitive light with like, tape or something so I don't have to constantly look at them. haha, did any of you guys do anything to cover them or were just like whatever about it?

The host for that website is trying to charge extra every time we try to update it, which they didn't before so it's pretty much abandoned till we find a new one. Our home for now is mikmik and here....
