Here's a small .zip file that will remap your search button to open Camera.apk
Flash the .zip in recovery. There is also a .zip to revert to stock as well. Enjoy!
Sweet, thanks. That's gonna make life a lot easier!
From a rooted I-500 with XDA
Works perfectly
Its working most of the time but sometimes the camera comes up but its just a black screen and sometimes it says Camera failed. All in all it works most of the time. Nice work!
great find thatdudebutch! I see that the concept behind it is pretty flexible, have you tried running any other programs with the softkeys?

Yeah I just tried it about twenty times in a row and no blank screen. Wonder what the deal is? Camera in fact opens quicker remapped to search IMO.

I get the camera failed error/black screen about every other time I start hit search, kind of causes a momentary phone freeze. Thanks for your work on this though, its an awesome idea.

its weird man, ive been pressing it all day and it loads every time, sorry maybe if you got a second some time you can connect phone to adb and run a logcat while hitting the button so we can see what the problem is

Any chance you could post the edited file you used? Cause i regualrly use my search button-i dont like having a search widget on my home screen when there's a button for it...

So since I flashed XXLP2 on my I9100 the home button doesnt work and I cant bring up task manager.
Also when I hold down the power button I dont get the meny showing 3G and silent mode etc. Instead it just turns off.
Anyway I can fix this?
same issue here too. And even the lockscreens won't work.
i did not find any solution so far.

I find it really weird because I've seen videos/reviews of XXLP2 and they have no problem with it what so ever.
It makes me think that I flashed it wrong even though I followed the instructions closely.

I have flashed Lotta roms.so that's not an issue.but in this case I tried 2 roms and the result is the same. I guess this rom is just another buggy test release.

Issue fixed.
The home button not working and missing lockscreen bugs are fixed by adding a file named 'keystr' under efs/imei folder.
refer this thread for more information.

This fix worked for me.
I have searched xda and Google but haven't found an answer. Does anyone know how to disable or remove screen capture? I tried freezing screen capture.apk in TB but that didn't help. I'm really tired of my pocket taking screen shots of my lock screen whenever I get a text. :-/

Uh, you could flash an aosp Rom...they don't have swipe screen shot feature, which is what iimagine is happening right?
On aosp it's volume down and power only, no swipe, or s-pen shot at all.
Not sure how to remove it though
Yeah that's what's happening. It didn't start doing that until I flashed the last ics leak and now it's doing it on the official release. It only does it if I'm walking around with my phone in my pocket and I get a text and only about 75% of the time then. I would use an aosp rom but I like having the spen functionality.

Do you want screenshots completely disabled or just the swipe screenshot disabled?
Completely disabled is much easier, as I just did a quick test and completely disabled screenshots.
What ROM are you using?
EDIT: Spoke too soon. I'm partially there...it doesn't take screenshots anymore, but it crashes SystemUI when you try to. I'll keep looking into it.
Since it happens on screen wake with texts, why not use SMS pop up from the market and disable notifications in the native messaging app. At least it won't wake in your pocket.
Honestly either way is fine with me, I don't ever take screen shots so I really wouldn't miss the feature.
I'm on the official att ics stock rom rooted and cwm.

Proving a little more difficult than expected. I'm still working on it, but won't be able to do any more on it tonight probably.
I appreciate the effort. I tried a couple of things that I thought might work but none did.

I've been digging around in SystemUI and can disable just the swipe screenshot, but it crashes SystemUI most of the time.
This may be a dumb question but did you freeze or remove screen capture.apk when you were trying that?

Not a dumb question at all. Freezing the screen capture apk doesn't stop the screen shot from being taken, which is a little bizarre.
I should get some more time to work on this tomorrow. Might take someone better than me though.
Yeah I thought it was weird that freezing it didn't do anything. I was thinking maybe that apk is what is causing the crashes when fooling with the system UI.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
I worked on this some more today and its still crashing when I try to prevent the screenshot from being taken. I think another way would be to stop the phone from using the palm sweep gesture. That might be easier to figure out and I think is in framework.
That would work too. :thumbup:

As you may know, all ICS stock based roms for Samgung Galaxy 2 have one common and very unpleasant feature - a home button delay. This delay is noticeable every time you press home button to exit an application, return back from settings to dashboard or if you want to return to your home screen. As a result you may have a feeling that your phone response after clicking a home button is delayed app. 1s and it will degrade overall phone responsivness.
For demonstration of a problem see this video.
Finally the fix is here and you may enjoy it on your Galaxy S2 with the newest miuiandroid 2.8.17 rom with integrated 3-way Reboot options from kong. It is not tested on another miui releases, but probably could work.
Installation:
Just install the zip in cwm recovery and you are good to go.
If you enjoy my work you may consider a small donation to support my further development.
Note: This will NOT fix lockscreen lag, it is present because your cpu is in powersaving mode and takes some time to utilize again.
Please do not copy this patch to another hosts, always use a link to this forum instead.
I'm not responsible for any problems or data corruption you may have using this patch. For your safety always backup your rom before doing any modifications.
I'm keen to try this but scared it messes something up Any lab rats willing to test it first?

Hehe, don't wory. If you have this version from miuiandroid (miuiandroid_GT-I9100-2.8.17.zip) you are safe Just try it out and share your experience. You won't regret Those disclaimer is just in case... And for your safety you can always back up your rom in cwm recovery

Did you patch it correctly in cwm recovery? This is the problem, see video here
If you apply it correctly it will remove this delay completely and if you press home button the phone reacts immediately. Check if you have 3 way reboot option. If not a patch has not been applied...

Faulty? It should be ok, maybe it is kernel problem. What kernel do you use? I use syiah and no problems. Does the updater throws any error during flash?
Edit: I have double checked and reverted back changes and apply this fix again and it works just fine.

It was never that slow for me. Maybe it did work but I just can't notice it :-/ I never use the home button anyway. I always press the back button.
I'm on Siyah 4.0.1 (if it matters).

Ah, then it's clear Back buton is not affected because phone doesn't wait for second click. I'm use home button pretty often ant it was very anoying for me
Edit: a question came into my mind - let's say you have on third or fourth tab in MIUI Launcher, how do you return back to home tab ??? For me the only way is to press the home button and here you can clearly see the difference.

I know it won't work for back button, but I did try using the home button to see. Perhaps it is faster, but I just can't see it. It's probably because I use the back button so often.
I don't use MIUILauncher, so I can't help you out with your question but I do know you mean Thanks for this mod, though. I'll keep it on
hey man, nice job will try it out now.. will give you results soon
Work perfectly! Nice job

Lol I'm probably just used to the quick speed of the back button, so when I click home now, even though it is faster, I can't see it. Maybe that's why I can't notice it

If you have the patch applied there is no difference in speed between back and home button - and that's it! Now if you would flash unmodified rom you would see the difference between these two buttons very quickly
what is the process to remove this patch because I applied it and now my phone will not turn on passed the samsung logo?
Hello, can anyone guide me how to fix it without rooting? So double tap to wake is not working after a factory reset, Double tap to sleep on lock screen works tho. I did a factory reset because of heavy ghost touch issues.
Probably a settings issue.
Or simple load the app Double tap, it's likely is better than the stock app.

Double Tap is a near perfect app. I use instead of the Samsung one as it has more and better features to dial it in. No downside, stable.
