[Q] Long-press volume down -> camera - LG G2 Mini

Hi!
I find it very easy for the D620 to open the camera itself and take 100 pictures while it's in my pocket. I think it's because the on/off button get pressed, and then the volume down button. Long-press volume down brings out the camera, even though I have slide or the knock code screen lock enabled.
Anyway to disable the long press volume down? Or that when the screen is locked, it locks the phone 100%?

You can disable the long press volume down with G2 TweaksBox module( in Miscellaneous Tweaks, you have to set Volume Down action to None).

Hi
Problem solved without root - almost. Key Plus for LG on Google Play.
You can set any program or shortcut. And then for example, uninstall selected program.
You got "unlock button".

Waking up the Atrix with the Volume Button?

When I first got it, the volume button would wake up the phone. A few days later it stopped doing it. Maybe I changed some settings but I've been looking thru them all and can't find it.
Was this a bug? I know most people need apps to be able to do that from what I read.
It was so much nicer than pressing the power button. *sigh*
I like waking up the phone with the volume buttons as well. I use a program known as widgetsoid 2.x, you can download it from the market, that lets you unlock the screen - meaning that you can wake the phone with the power button or volume rockers and won't need to slide to unlock it either.
WidgetLocker allows you to wake up the screen, and thus unlock the phone, from the volume keys as well.
DK
So you can't do it without an app?
Must have been just a tease. lol
I was hoping there was something simple in the settings somewhere.
Download No Lock, it allows you to use the volume rocker + power button to wake up the phone and gets rid of the lock screen for those of us that don't like it.
I use NoLock as well. Occasional Opera Mobile errors when waking the phone up, but overall NoLock works well...
Thanks, tried no lock. Works pretty well. Few times it still locked but I can live with that.
Thanks, No Lock was much better than widget locker that i've been using. The slider in widget locker is so slow/laggy.
You can also download "lock screen" to be able to lock screen by touching an icon instead of the horrible power button.

If you are using a custom ROM with cyanogen mod go on settings-cyanogen settings- input- and tick volume rocker wave.
this will allow you to wake your Atrix without using the annoying power button.
If this helps please press thanks.

remapping hardware touch buttons

Ok, so I've read about how you don't get the ICS quick change/recently used apps button on the new SIii.
Questions 1 is there a way to remap the Menu button so that is does the quick change feature?
2 is there a way to then, the double tap home button feature to get GOOGLE Voice Search/Actions?
3 is there a way that I can add on screen ICS buttons like on the Galaxy Nexus? And then make the hardware home button do something else?
Do I need apps? Rooting?
Thanks!
You need to root. You can turn on software keys with the AOKP rom but you cannot disable the hard keys.

i would rather have the task manager open when you hold and press on the back button. the menu button when u hold give u the google search, but on the back button when u hold nothing happens. it would be only logical to apply the task manager to this button when pressed down and held for a a few seconds
Hey I have heard that NOVA launcher pro allows you to customize some of the these short cuts on the phone.

Aw yeah.
I do not have the phone yet, but I believe holding the home button will bring up the recent apps. This is how it's been for previous android versions before they made a dedicated button for the galnex
that's how it works for my Dinc, on gingerbread and ics

1. open /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl
2. add # to the beginning of the line of the key you want to disable
3. reboot
in the same file you can remap power key to home key for example
remember to make backup before editinf the file

is there a way to stop the home button from waking the device also? (so only the power button wake the device up)
I wonder if you guys can enlighten me. My goal is to have the Home key under the screen function as the power button, and have the normal power button (on the right side of the phone) function as Home (without waking the device). I want this because I'm always unintentionally hitting the power button when I pick up the phone.
I was able to get the Home button to function as power by changing key 116 to 172 in sec_powerkey.kl. However, now the normal power button doesn't do anything. I tried swapping POWER with HOME in sec_keys.kl, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Any tips on how to give my power button a function now?

[APP] Button Remapper for ICS and JB

Hi guys! I just want to share this app, called Button Remapper. I saw this in a thread here in XDA a year ago and I can't seem to find the right thread so if anyone claims din message me.
Anyhows! I'll share this so you wouldnt tend to mess up your power button, not to press it every now and then, every time you lock and unlock your phone.
Well, it saves your power button. I use this app for that, replacing the function of the capacitive search button and make it act as a power button. It make me not to use the power button frequently and makes a perfect tandem for "wake up volume rockers" option found in any CM and AOKP. As long as you install the app, there are other buttons you can remap.
I've learned that stressing the power button my cause digitizer failure.
Syntax:
-Download attachment file
-Install as normal APK
-Enjoy

App for changing power key action?

I have root, lsposed. I want an app/hack to change if possible the power button simple click action (to run a custom app instead of turn off screen). But probably this is very difficult, so any app to change long click action. For double click i already know how.
Thanks, if anyone knows.
I'm using button mapper : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton to change the volume keys order when rotating the tab. This app could be, what you looking for.

Question Power button Google Pay/Wallet

Hi, does someone of you know how to map google pay to the power button. On my last phone i just had to press the power button twice and my card was visible
The 1 IV starts the camera when i do this, which is redundant in my opinion because we have a dedicated camera button.
Would appreciate the help

Thank you for your answer, so there is no built-in way to do it? I have to root and install this (with optional xposed module)?

Yep that's the only way. But you can use it without xposed. Using Accessibility
