I recently installed this rom and I am dissatisfied with holding the menu button while in an app to kill the app. Is there any way I can re-map this long press menu function to S-Voice? Please help me out, I have been looking everywhere.
BUMP, why no one help me with any issues I have

Anyone manage to enable the on screen navigation button on s3 yet? tried the old method to set the enable navigation button value in the framework-res.apk like what we did on s2 but it didn't work.
trying to get the navigation button for my wife as the home button is not very comfortable to press and we are worry about the durability of the home button. besides, it would be a lot more convenient to have the recent app button for multitasking. holding the home button to bring up the recent task takes too much time.
Appreciate if anyone can help. thanks.

Hi thanks for the information, it helps. we will be using the app now until someone figures out how to enable the navigation buttons. the only downside with the app now is that it doesn't have a recent task button as well, but at least the home button is there.
hello i would like someone to create and app that can allow me to double tap the menu button to get recent app cause my home button is severely damage please help am using stock rom
Hi, I found some old threads about changing keylayout and stuff, but nothing recent (you know: since JB) and I just got the phone yesterday.
Right now, the phone does this:
Menu button press: menu
Menu button hold: Google Now (search)
Home button press: Home
Home button double-press: SVoice
Home button hold: Recent Apps
Back button press: Back
And I would like it to do this:
Menu button press: Recent Apps
Menu button hold: menu
Home button press: Home
Home button double-press: nothing
Home button hold: Google Now (search)
Back button press: Back
I'm kinda surprised that I can't find an app for this, as it really just seems like I'd be changing a little bit of text inside some config/layout files.
FWIW, I'm running completely stock but I rooted it yesterday. No ROM has been flashed, and I would love to keep it that way. Any help is greatly appreciated!

My thread got pushed off the front page faster than I could find Google Now on my new phone.

Thanx - nice find!
It still doesn't accomplish what I want, though... And I am a HUGE proponent of keeping things simple. My least favorite thing about Windows 8? All those muthereffin gestures that you need to memorize. It's not simple, and you have to completely relearn how to use an OS that you've been using for ages.
Pretty straightforward here. In looking for some way to remap the long press back button to a long press menu button to bring up the multi-window sidebar. I think it just makes a bit more sense than back, to prevent accidental exits, because nothing bad really happens if you accidentally press menu. Maybe an Xposed framework module? There had got to be a simple way to do this. I've tried some hardware button remapping apps, but they only have general Android functions in them, no proprietary app stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I would like to remap the capacitive menu button to the recent apps switcher (default long press of the home button)
and then remap the LONG press of the menu button to the menu function (I need the ability to use the menu button when within the stock samsung apps like messaging, because they use fixed layouts and their apps are designed without the menu overflow.)
also my question is would apps still detect the phone as having a hardware menu button? I would like to be able to have apps have the menu button and not rely on the hardware.
then maybe since I would no longer need the home button long press possibly remap that to kill the current app? (that is not as important but just a side note)
I have looked EVERYWHERE and can not find a viable way to do this on the stock rom. thanks
