Viper Rom let's you change what the button does. Symbol won't change though. You can also program long press and double press. I've got back, menu, home, screen off, voice, recents, and kill app all programmed to them.

No doubt it would require full root access, but it'd be very useful if the 3D Switch had a function outside of camera mode. One thought I had would be as a silent/vibrate toggle as found on the iphone. But that's a far cry from all the potential uses for it.

I was thinking maybe the camera button could be used for screenshots? That would be pretty awesome.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
maybe autobrightness and a user defined level would be sweet. also Setting up the camera button to do other things especially because its a dual stage button! we could have perform 2 seperate functions!
Any updates on this? Just got the 3d and I have miui running. The switch is now literally pointless. Any way we could make it a vibrate/sound toggle? Wifi on/off switch? Customizable switch? I just want all of my buttons to have a point in being a button.
Would it be possible to do with one of those Remap button apps?

With MIUI, press volume down + menu for screen shot!
I realize I'm about to stray into the wild crazy world of 'off topic' but here's a few other MIUI tips!

This is a mod how to enable navigation bar(on screen buttons) , its very simple and easy...
Add the following line at the end of buid.prop file
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
now on reboot we will have nav-bar like on nexus 4
To disable hardware keys, I used root explorer go to system/usr/keylayout click and hold on kaypad.nl and choose from menu open in text editor and 139,158,172 edit the home to hom and do the same on all 3 lines and hit save and reboot,
Plus I went and deleted all the 139, 158, 172 lines from external_kbd.kl, Generic.kl, MHLRCP.kl, osp3-input.kl and qwerty.kl. I dont know if that helps because I deleted them first then edited the lines in kaypad.nl.
Thanx to accentuer he made a zip that works also and might be easier for some people

If you would prefer they didn't you could always turn them off in settings>display>front key light.
As having both seems redundant.
Does this mod disable the hardware keys, I'll do it but no point in having on screen keys and hardware keys.

Screenshot above ^^^
Many like this from what I have read. It can come in very handy should hardkeys stop functioning.
With all due respect, for me it takes up screen space I would prefer not to give up. It is a matter of personal preference and options are always a good thing.
Edit: Inverted screenshot= nice.

I would have to agree. It doesn't make too much sense to do this on our device, but I for sure appreciate the know how and option to do it.

I assume all your apps will automatically reconfigure to account for the different screen dimentions?
Hmm, tough choice: give up some screen real estate to gain a dedicated task switcher button and context menu button.

If you don't mind trying something, you could open /system/usr/keylayout/keypad_8064.kl in a text editor and put a "#" (without the quotes) at the beginning of the last 3 lines.
Change:
Code:
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
To
Code:
#key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
#key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
I have not tried this as I don't have any plans to use this mod... may want to do a quick backup first in case it renders your phone unnavigable.
You may also still have to turn off the backlights in settings>display>front key light.
Nice to know we can do this if our hw keys end up not working in the future

Ok, so something like that would work for disabling the hw keys.
Good to know.
Did you by any chance try it the way I suggested? It may be a little cleaner, though I don't think it makes a difference.

HAHA!
np, I hear you and completely understand.
ok i have done a TON of research but have yet to get the issue resolved. as we all know it has been well documented that the dna has issues with getting mms to work with an att sim card. hoiwever, i did speak with att and they said that my sim card COULD be the issue. something about it being a 3g card and the stream of #'s is not compatible?
think thats possible?
anyone else have any luck with changing the sim card out?
ill go out on a limb and ask if anyone has the correct apn or mms settings. i can get internet but the dreaded mms is a no go. i did manage to get ONE mms to come thrrough on my phone but i have a feeling it was a fluke. also that was multiple days and tries ago.
id hate to part with such an awesome device but i do need mms...
any help would be awesome!
Have you tried another texting app? Go sms seemed to send and recieve mms for me.

i did download the gosms app. however, i couldnt find where to put the mms settings in. is there a how to for that? im willing to give it another go.
Here is how you get to the mms settings in go sms. Just get to the menu in the app and follow the pictures I have attached. Then fill in the correct apn settings and make sure they save and it should work. (I don't know the apn settings for AT&T but I'm sure if you Google it or search xda you can find it) I would reboot after you change them and then test it and see if it works. Hopefully it does.
Good luck

Look for an onscreen menu button or if you have your soft keys set up to bring up a menu use that but there should be some settings or on screen menu somewhere.

Well that's up to you. I would just flashed viper dna since the recent apps button also acts like a menu for short press and then acts as a recent apps button when you long press it. But that's up to you. Let me know if you get it to work.

Almost all roms allow remapping of the recent apps button.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Just got my m8 and I'm trying to figure out if there was a way to remap (not sure if that's correct term here but...) the recent app button?
What I mean is, on my OneXL there was a way to change the recent apps button to be a "menu" button with short tap , and recent apps on long button hold. I used it a lot for an app that we use for work.
I searched around on the forum here for the m8 and didn't see anything so if this has been asked before I apologize. But does anyone know if there's a mod or an xposed mod that would allow this on our phone?
Thanks
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm interested in this as well.
Edit: If you plan on rooting, you can use ViperOne ROM to customize your buttons. I just switched from Skyfall to try out ViperOne and discovered it.

Is there any way to flip the long touch/short touch behavior here, or (even better) add a dedicated home touch button for the menu? I use the menu button way more than "recent".
