Hi,
in the past on other devices (S2) I was using an application called homemyhome to remap the and to start the camera using simnply the double click of the home button. This does not work for S3.
Someone knows if there is a similar application that works for the S3 ? rooted or un-rooted ?
Thanks

Hi there, just want to know how i would go about assigning the camera to the home button double click action?
I have searched and found a lot of old threads but not much else, forgive me if this has been posted recently, and please be so kind to link me to the correct thread.
I am running stock Android GB 2.3.4
with Kernel version XWKI4 (CF-root)
I do not want to change roms because i do not want to re-install all my apps and games (I am very low on data/cap).
Also is there a way to use my one of volume keys as a "shutter" key?
So is there any way I can do what i am requesting?
Thanks
No need to change ROM there is an app on the market

Download Home2 Shortcut from the market
That application is listed as "not working" on S2 from the creator of the app, I'm guessing because of the stock double-click function our phone has.
You can assign a different app to double-clicking the home button with homeMYhome from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299923

e.g., Camera, Browser, Twitter, MySettings
-Your favorite shortcut can be started.
e.g., Bookmark, Direct dial, SiMi Folder Widget
(Tips)
-Please push twice quickly.
-Semicircle Swipe (HOME > Menu)
-Speed-up of response

If that is the only reason you don't want to switch ROMs I would suggest looking into titanium backup as a way of backing up and recovering your apps/games and data without worrying about your data cap.

Hello,
in Tasker (Apps) it's possible run any action for press button - Camera, Long Search.
But Galaxy S3 don't have this button Camera and Long Search ?
It's posible to run action from tasker with physical button on Galaxy S 3 ?
Nay. Didn't have the option and I think I saw a post saying there isn't a way on the Google groups for tasker.

You have right, but i saw on xda thema or ROM, that someone running camera on Power Button. And maybe exist any solution, fix or ROM where can add camera to physical button ?
for shutter? JKay, for example, or modded camera apps
Hey,
I currently use I9001XXKQ1_I9001XXKPI_I9001DBTKP1_HOME firmware for my SGS+ and I was wondering if I couls somehow either
add Screenshot to the Power-Menu like in ICS and JB
remap the screenshot
currently it is done by pressing the back-softkey and the homebutton. unfortunately the app reacts to them so I go back or exit the app.
Maybe it would be possible to map the action to volume down and power or so.
Best thing would still be in the Power-Menu since that effects no apps and is guaranteed to work.
Hi, guys. My name Tommy and i need help here
Using Blackview 6000 just a week. This device has 3 button on the home screen.
Left is menu button
Middle is Home Button for go to home and recent task when long press
Right is back button
I can't launch Google now and Google now on tap. Because the Home Button is for recent task <ll
So, how can I have my home button for Google now and Google now on tap?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you'll need Android 6.0 Marshmallow and Google App installed on your device

Thank you for your attention. Yes, my blackview 6000 run Android 6.0 9 marshmallow and is installed Google App.
The problem is, on my blackview 6000, the Home Button is used for go to home Screen and if long tapped, it goes to recent task

Tommy,
My son also bought a BV6000S and spent about 8 hours trying to get it to work properly. There doesn't seem to be much support provided by Blackview for any of their phones online (at least I can't find any, except for their forum, where you might get a question answered by someone from the company, or you might not). I can't help with your question, but can offer moral support.
Is there a way Remap the buttoned for Google as it's not needed as you can old the white dot on screen down for the same result.
Just did a quick Google search. There are a number of remap apps available for doing this. The one featured in xda is called assistant remap or something similar.
working for me
I used button remapper app (or button remapper pro)
and it works great
you have to first disAble the "Google Asssitant Button" from settings
then run the button remapper app
in my cases it asked me to ad some adb permissions via an app tool
but it is working great
now I have
double click - camera opens
single click - take a picture

I was actually going to ask if it could become the camera button. Something perfect on the Lumia's that im surprised never took off on Droid phones.
Thank you for this.
Works great.
Not working
Hi,
I have few Camera apps installed, it works on the Google camera port and most (except Camera PX)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-2/themes/gcam-nokia-7-2-google-camera-port-balu-t3981019
also I had to buy the "button remapper pro" app
since the regular version does not have the action "camera shutter" available
other than that, it works well for me
