Is there a mod which allows users to answer calls by pressing the home button? I have seen this feature in Galaxy S2 and was wondering whether it is possible in our xperia devices? Thank you.

There's no mod to answer call with physical buttons?

Is there any way I can reprogram the send button to the search button? It would be really useful considering the call button doesn't really do much in 2.2.

You would have to go into the Key charts and change it. I remember a while back when I had my Samsung Moment and was on SDX that we changed the keys to support MP3 controls when the phone was off and function normally when the phone was on so it is possible. The files are located in /system/usr/ and you can start by checking those out.
Please back up before making changes though...

I have built a kernel, based on hastarin R7.6, which has send/dial key mapped to search. You may want to have a try.
Unfortunately I don't have the perm to post links... It's 6VRCX0X55T on multiupload.
Not sure if you guys are aware, but if you keep the menu button pressed for a couple of seconds it becomes a search button?

I'm aware of this, just when I tried out pressing the buttons haha
But I've read this once, cause it works the same way in SGS I as far as I can remember
Awesome! Thanks!
Does that mean however there will be no "one button" way to get to voice search?

Double clicking the home button opens Samsung's voice control app.
i would like a search app equivalent (as in my atrix when i am in applications section i can press search button and i can search witin my own installed apps)
i see no equivalent for this on the galaxy, am i missing something?
but how can I add an installed app to the researchable item list of "Google search"?

I found the way how to set it so you can answer the incoming call by pressing the home button instead of sweeping the screen - because it sometimes doesn't respond at all. But is there any way to end the call the same way - instantly by pressing the home button? Could't find it in any settings. Need to be setting in stock firmware, not moded at all.
Thank you
You can end the call by pressing the power button. Settings>Call>Answering/Ending>"The power key ends call"

Thanks for the tips. I don't know about this option before.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I know that, but I want to end the call by pressing the home key, not the power key.
Carlitos... can you tell me how you changed the sweeping option to answer the call ???? I assume that this will still have both options to answer the call right ?????
Thanks in advance...
Any answer please....

As per the comment above by BarryH_GEG
Settings>Call>Answering/Ending
Thanks my friend...
Would also love to be able to switch the home and endcall keys while in conversation
I know there is an app that can remap keys, however, I only want those keys remapped while calling.
No one has taken up this challenge? Amazing. Seems like it's not enough of a challenge for the experts here. Otherwise this would be very useful instead of having to look for the power key every time to end calls
I'm not sure if this should go in Q&A forum or development, but here's a question
I saw this same question was unanswered for Nexus. I assume there's no way yet to remove the menu button (...) and make the Recent App physical button do that?
Thank you!

Requires HTC Dev unlock and root. Great mod.
Is there a way to remap the soft keys on the XPERIA S. I would like the menu key to open recent apps while holding will open menu. The holding of home key should also be for voice search to prepare for google now!
Thanks!

Questions don't belong in development, and your question doesn't make sense, in title you say hardware keys, and in post you say software keys..
