Hello, I wanted to know is there a way to change which app launches when you long press the menu button? Currently it's Google search.
I'm on a rooted Xperia S, if that matters.
Thanks in advance!

You can do it by using some launchers like holo launcher.
In holo launcher settings you can select which action you would you like to perform when pressing menu button for a long time...
Press Thanks; if I helped You.

I'm using apex, sadly it doesn't support the menu button but I found an option to use gestures for that, thank you.

thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to have the app switcher that i wanted... i want the same thing as the one that shows up when you long press the home button.. i just want it to show up when you long press the menu... instead of the search function, i want the app switcher...

This is probably what you're looking for. Works a treat and no more long pressing home

its touchwiz/widget bound. you can launch it only from homescreen.
Is there any way to remap the the menu or back button to bring up the multi-tasking menu through long press?

Is there a mod that can open an app when the menu button is held down? I know some launchers use this but I want to be able to use it everywhere, not just in the launcher. Thanks!

I'm not sure about the menu button but I think there's something called home2home or something that let's you change what holding the home key does. I'm not sure though so I could be wrong

I'm using a sony xperia j w/ stock kernel, rooted and .31 firmware.
I've been wondering for a longer time:
can I remap the menu button on my phone to open recent apps instead of showing the menu?
Since I have the 3-dot overflow on most apps, I don't really need the menu button here.

Where is the menu button on here to start a new topic. I'm using the s3 to post this. But on the s5 the menu button just shows other apps that are open.
