Really? Press your gpen against screen while holding the botton in. Another method is to swipe the side of your palm across the screen. Like your brushing something off.

S-Pen Shortcuts

Are there any mods that can change what the S-Pen can do? Or anyway we can customize it? Like maybe making holding the button and swyping up to go back to home screen?
Thanks

Swiping up is the same as pressing the menu button, down is home screen and left is back.

Screen Capture :(

What app does everyone use for screen shots? I used to use ShootMe, but since im on ICS it says it's not compatible.

It already has screen shots home soft key and power key l. Some roms are different. It can be a little tricky to do just fyi.

Broken Home Button

Home buttons broken, Is there any way I could make another button go to the home screen? Such as long pressing back button or something
It won't fix your physical broken button but, download Button Savior from the store.

Glad you got it working. I have a question about the buttons though, are they supposed to have an LED backlight behind them?

Yeah. When the screen is awake a white light should come on behind them.

So now the home button is somehow pushing itself, is there a way to completely disable the button?

Have you deleted HOME from the original home key in the file? If not I would try that and see if that works.

It's probably because Svoice is removed.

Use the power button instead of home button.
Your screen thinks that It's still on so, you could just swipe or touch the screen instead of the home key.
It takes 5-10 seconds after screen goes black for the device to go to sleep.

u can use a widget to keep screen on,like "screen ghost widget" to toggle..otherwise wait 10-15 sec after screen turns of,then u will return to the last open page/app.
have a nice day..
