I have been tweaking my phone (not on TW) for a while to get it the way I wanted it. I was successfully able to modify files so I have on-screen navigation and disable the back and menu buttons. There's two last things that I want to get fixed and am wondering if I can change any config files for these tweaks:
- Turning off the capacitive button lights. They still light up despite disabling the buttons. I don't see an option to change that in Settings.
- Haptic feedback on the on-screen buttons. I tried Settings > Sound > Vibrate on touch, but only the task switcher vibrates (not home nor back)

Really annoying! Any ideas?
What I have mine set like,
Under softkeys settings:
Softkeys Service >
- Run Service - Unchecked
- Run at Boot - Unchecked
Virtual Home Button >
- Normal/Long Press - Launcher Pro (Or whatever Launcher you prefer)
Physical Home Button >
- Set Single Tap to Softkeys, Double to Launcher
Other settings are tailored to Taste/Preference.
What this will do is disable the Popper button (which I hated) but allow you to see the Softkeys menu whenever you tap the N button, and straight to your homescreen with a double tap. This will disable the DPad thing along with it.
Long press the popper

Second this! Button savior is much nicer imo.

Hi,
I've tried to do this but now my N button does not perform any action. I used home switcher to make soft keys my default launcher, but the N button is not working at all. It does, however, wake up the NC from sleep, but once the NC is on, the N button stops working. Can you help me with this?
Im on a simple rooted NC (using BN 1.1) with autonooter and I have Zeam and Softkeys installed.
I used the the auto nooter to root froyo however I am having a bit off a problem with the controls of how my nook behaves. I think it is the status bar which contains my menu and I am unsure how to fix this because I do not even know how to determine if I have a preset to full screen. So, what annoys me about this is the kindle application when i start reading a book I have to exit the app all together by pushing home when I am finished because the menu hides. In my settings I do not have auto hide checked for my status bar, so maybe it is a full screen setting issue ? Any thoughts on this ?
Set up softkeys to use double press home "n" key to bring up softkeys... then you can quickly press the "n" key and have softkeys back button available.
I just discovered 'Button Savior' which seems to work well also. (Running CM7.1RC1)
How do i disable the menu and back touchkeys when phone is in sleepmode?
Problem is that i use the NeatRom 4.4.2 and i can always wake the phone just by touching the menu or back button.
I want to disable this so that the phone doesnt accidently turn on while in my pocket. I want to be able wake it ONLY by power button and home button!
EDIT: NVM, fixed it. was hard to find in advanced settings
My Chromebook used to turn off the screen anytime I pressed the power button. I often use it to type notes during presentations, and I loved having a fast easy way to turn off the screen to save power if I knew I wouldn’t be typing anything for 5 or 10 minutes.
A few months ago, a ChromeOS update changed this so it only works it tablet mode now, pressing the power button in laptop mode now opens an on-screen menu with options to shutdown, log off, or lock screen. The best workaround I have found so far is to use the brightness keys to get the screen off, but it’s a pain to get it back to the right brightness level every time.
I have the Chromebook in developer mode, and I would like to do one of the following (in order from most to least preferred):
1. Restore power button functionality to how it was before.
2. Re-purpose the lock screen button on the keyboard for turning off the screen.
3. Add a keyboard shortcut to toggle the screen on and off.
4. Add a “Turn off screen” option to the current on-screen menu.
I never really modified ChromeOS before. Has anyone else done these things? Where should I begin? Thank you.
Here is some relevant documentation, maybe the information at the bottom is useful?:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/master/power_manager/docs/power_buttons.md
I was able to do it by adding the flag "--force-tablet-power-button" to /etc/chrome_dev.conf and restarting the UI, but changes to that file don't seem to persist accross system reboots.
edit: I used the instructions at the bottom of this page: http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/run-chromium-with-flags
I know there's a setting, but there are only two options offered: Nothing or Open Camera
I'd love to be able to toggle the flashlight with the power button. Anybody know where the system file is that controls that? Would it be in build.prop?
Now, I know what I'm going to say it's not the solution that you're looking for BUT, I remember that OnePlus X had a default behavior for when you draw a V (I assume it reassembles a light coming our from a flashlight), so I used the same on OP N10. This option is available at Settings > Buttons & Gestures > Quick Gestures > Draw V
You can change this in framework-res.apk and its affiliates, change the integer text and remove impeding files. Cheers
