[Q] Menu button remapped as multitasking? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I'm using XMP on ZellyCream 2.5.2 with locked BL.
I know the mod in question exists, but the one I've tried opened the recent apps list as seen on GB - just icons of the apps divided in 2 rows. my question is: is it possible to open the ICS recent apps list on menu button, the one with swipeable previews of all the apps and SmallApps bar? care to share?

Why hard to press long home?
If you change menu for multitask you can't use menu.
If 3 dot menu is not enabled you can't do anything
But if you want i can search it for you

well, long pressing Home sucks a bit for me. I'm fully aware that I need to flash a 3-dot framework and so far all the apps I've got installed support it. so yeah, if you'd find the tweak I'm looking for, I'd be very grateful

Im looking for it too. Actually you can do that on cm10 fxp rom, but that rom just not settle good for me.

[Q] Change quick launch shortcuts?

I was wondering if there's a mod out there to allow you to change the quick launch shortcuts at the bottom of the screen? Or am I just stupid and you can do this with a stock phone?
I realize when we get some new ROMs going this will be added in, I'm just enjoying my stock ROM with Da_G's OC kernel and CWM for now.. I don't really have the free time to be playing around with new ROMs right now, but a flash-able mod would be great for this since I only really use two of the shortcuts.
Have you tired a custom launcher? I just got my note today and the first thing i did was install the zeam launcher.

App drawer - menu - edit - customizable grid - tap and drag.
Okay.. I was trying to stay away from using a different launcher, I've tried them in the past and always ended up uninstalling them after a few hours.
One more step to add to mikegehl's write-up: Then Menu > Save, or your changes won't stick.
Why they had to make it so much more difficult than any other position on the screens (simple drag-n-drop to remove, press-n-hold to add) is beyond me. But, it is one of my very few complaints about the stock UI.
How to change quick launch icons.
Ok I wish this was a little easier but there is a way to change the quick launch icons (all but the applications icon of course). Just click on Applications icon, click on the menu button, click on view type, make sure its on customizable grid, then click menu again, then edit. You can now drag icons (upto 4 on the note) on and off the quick launch. remember to click menu, save once you're done or it will revert back. Hope this helps!

[Q] How easy it is it to enable expanded desktop on CM10

Hi guys
I know there are various AOKP ROMs that have enabled Expanded Desktop functionality... But I want to use it in standard CM10.
What tweaks have to be made to the rom to do this?

What do you mean by Extended Desktop?

"Expanded Desktop" is available normally on Tablets and some other devices, it's normally an option available in the "Power Menu".
It appears in "Paranoid Android" ROM, and i know it is contained in standard CM10 builds.
Just figuring out how to enable, the option in the Power Menu..
I know in the CM10 forum people just say "Aaaah you dont need it"
but yes i WANT it..
and if it is a simple tweak as the code is already in there then i am happy to do this myself

i just like it, adds a little bit more screen real estate to apps, Apex Launcher can only hide the status bar whilst you are in the launcher.
I know people say "oh it's only good for Nexus Owners" but is there any reason why i cant? Paranoid Android has it so why cant i?
Maybe i'll ask the question in the Paranoid Android Thread
You could try tasker it'll be able to hide the status bar in specific apps and I'm sure cm10 has it as its options double check the options

there is no option in CM10.. but i think the option switched off .. and is only selectable if you have a phone with no hardware keys, cant ask in the Paranoid Android thread as it is temporarily closed

[Q] Edit 'recommend apps' on 4.1.2?

I have recently upgraded to 4.1.2 ELLA stock. I am using a rooted 9300 on stock kernel.
Is there a hack that will give me the ability to edit the apps that are available in the bottom shortcuts on the new screen that appears when headphones are inserted? I don't use any of the stock apps, but they are all that appear!
Yes there is.

LOL - clever clogs. But that doesn't work. That's designed for editing the shortcuts that appear on the notification drop down. I want to edit the ones that appear at the bottom of the main screen. Try to long press on those and you get a pop up saying they can't be edited. Is there a mod for that?
I don't use TW so I don't know what you're talking about.
Use a custom launcher like Nova
I have the same problem.
I don't know how to change them.
But if anyone finds the answer, I am interested too.

[XPOSDE MODULE] 3dot menu mod

*** This mod is designed for device / rom that didn't have a onscreen navbar (i.e.: samsung rom) ***
If your rom already have a navbar, you should already have 3dot menu enabled and enabling this mod will only hide your navbar!
This mod will enable 3dot menu button in all application (using a 0 height navbar), enjoy!
Side effects:
Samsung use fixed layout for their apps, and when a navbar is enabled we got unexpected results, can't do nothing about this... (see screenshot)
after enebling the mod screenshot combination change to AOSP style: Power+MenuDown

So will this overlap applications and sit on top of them?
No, it's a guideline suggested since android 3.0 honeycomb, so the app had to support it.

Your package will not install from the xposed installer...claims: Package name is incorrect. Downloaded it.tnx.xposednavbarmod Expected it.tnx.xposednavAbarmod
Really wanted to use this, but when I enable it and reboot, I repeatedly get the error message "Unfortunately, SystemUI has stopped". The taskbar does not load and my phone is extremely slow.
I'm running stock rooted VZW SGS4.

Major issue with Samsung rom (s3).
Recent apps menu does not show ( long press menu). Also the contacts (phone app) are overlapped by the menu button, cannot see the first contact.
Canot take screenshots either...
Otherwise, great idea and app.

I think you can modify the layout with a Xposed mod...
See my thread for changed layout of Xperia apps with 0px navbar.

yes, sure, you can do almost everything with xposed
but I don't use samsung apps and I have no time to study each layout version for each devices and keep them updated...this is a generic mod...

Would it be practical to include a 'blacklist' feature which could be used to exclude apps like the Samsung ones which cause a problem with the screen layout?
Apart from this issue this is a great module!

Would it be possible for you to make an xposed mod that removes the 3 dot for devices such as Nexus 4 with softkeys. On my nexus 4 I use a menu button in my softkeys so I want to get rid of the 3 dots
I love it.... thanks for this great hack
Have same long press issues as well for recent apps. Have tried several ROMs for the T-Mobile S3 T999, all running 4.1.x Touchwiz base (need WiFi calling).
Long press opens Google voice search or s-voice depending on install

Notification pull down button on the navbar?

Hey,
I'm new to XDA as user but have been lurking around for a while now.
Anyhow, I'm wondering if there is any way to get a notification pull down button on my navbar (on screen buttons). I'm not talking about a gesture shortcut or anything, just a 4th button.
I've tried the newest resurrect remix ROM which just received an update which included a notification button only the ROM isn't a daily driver. There are just to many bugs.
I'm open for suggestions and hope it's done with a simple xposed module but I've searched long enough to doubt it.
There are screens as attachments from the resurrect ROM to give a preview.
Try cm12.1
...

If u want someting stable then u will get that notification button in cm12.1 from MasterAwesome,
I believe its quite stable, or it is the most stable custom rom out there.
I recommend u flashing v11.

Are you sure?
I'm currently on CM13 and I have flashed build 12.0s from this thread (MasterAwesome's) http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-oneplus-x-t3254072
And I believe I've tried the button settings on both and both only had the search, power and menu option.
I could be wrong though, just asking for a confirmation
my bad!! iws wrong

I was changing so many roms now days, so i checked up cm12.1 11s again and saw that there was no notification button .
I been using different roms and i might have incountered this feature in some other rom other that RR.
Alright, too bad though.
Hopefully anyone else has a good rom / module / app / whatever for me to get this feature.
Anyone?
Not what you want but try nova launcher as it has a couple of options that you can play around with for quick notifications
