hi, is there any mod that can make by holding hoke button to open recent apps?
i changed the desire x recent apps button to press for menu, press and hold for recent apps in settings cause i like it this way.
and i hate it how i have to hold the recent apps button to open recent apps. i think it is more convenient if hold home button to recent apps instead of holding recent apps button to open recent apps.
or make it like the htc one. double tap home button to recent apps.
is there any solutions?

Why not try the reverse of what you have press for recent apps and press & hold for menu I find it really convenient to do this you just
Goto settings>display and buttons>recent apps button and switch it up there...
One tap for recent apps which is obvious for the button press and hold for menu works flawlessly....
P. S. I know your not a noob in this unlike me

Is it working guys ?
I too installed the app. There's no option for holding. Holding menu key on my Note 2 would bring up search. I want to remap it to Recents.

You can clear recent app on a phone with button by long pressing the home and swipe on an app; with a phone with software button like Galaxy nexus you can use the multitasking button and swipe the app you want to close.http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I know that you swipe to clear one app, but I'm after a mod that clears all of them

nothing new yet??
Does anyone have a tweak or MOD that allows you to hold the menu button and something come up? As Sony Ericsson devices don't have a search button, I would really like to hold the Menu button to search.
Currently, on stock ROM, holding the menu button brings up keyboard(on LWW and others with onscreen keyboard).
Ah, I see you have Mini Pro.
I read about the remapping keys by long press and according to me, it was not possible yet on Xperia's. I am not sure right now, if I see/hear something, I will let you know.
On mini Pro just open the (HW) keyboard on the home screen and start typing. These are the search keys.

it would be better if holding the menu button task manger/task switcher will appear

If you hold the home button, recent apps will appear. Not sure if you already knew that, tough

Of course I know that. Duh it's just that holding the home button to open recent apps is not comfortable, the button is too hard to press. Maybe its just me though

Any easy way to change functions of things like home/menu buttons, if for example I want to quickly pull up task manager without having to long press home. I find that to be tedious.

Here is an app that can launch apps by pressing home button twice.

Meh, I'd rather a single press for task manager, or better yet.. menu key and then hold for menu. I don't need hold menu for search.
Nova launcher lets you do what you please with menu and home buttons, for long and short press
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for that recommendation, I'm using that nova as my default launcher. But it still doesn't really do what I'm looking for. It only works while on desktop and doesn't have a tap menu feature. I need something global. Hope I'm not being too picky lol

If you're rooted, you can edit the function of the home button pretty easily.

If you use that tutorial above, you'll see the properties of the keys. I enabled the on screen keys, disabled the capacitive keys, and remapped the home button to launch the camera instead of being a home button.
Is there anyway to map the menu button to one of the capacitive keys so I can get rid of this dumb menu pop up at the bottom of the screen? There has to be a way

Did you even try to search? There are currently two different options and both are easily found if you put in minimal effort.

did you close the application or just pressing your home button and re-opening the apps ?
in some case, the apps will read your action pressing home button like the exit button, so the apps just killing itself

Did u press the hm button or the back button? If home button, when u switch over to it, it shld resume instead of restarting the app. However if u press back button, when u switch over to the app. It will be new instead of resuming. Rmb if u wan multi task, press hm button. And when u wan to return back to the app. Hold the hm button and find the app and press it. Dun open it thru the apps place.
