Hi,
Is there a way to change the longpress hombe button function to launch an aplication? I am using a i9100 and want to use quickdesk or powerstrip but double tap home button is not working anymore
Whoud be great to change the long press home button to launch any aplication, i searched market and web and cant find any solution
Best regards
Hey Everyone!
I'm also still looking for a way to edit the function or disable the home button long hold function completely.
I saw a mod für 15 recent apps so there has to be a way to modify it...
Thanks in advance.

15 recent apps is one of the cyanogen mod 7 features. you can change it in cyanogenmod setting.
i dont have Cyanogen, just cf-root.
so is there anywhere a standalone mod for 15 recent apps so i can deactivate recent apps or isnt this released as standalone mod?
Hey guys-
This mod (flashable in recovery) will remap your recent apps button to a menu button and remove the on-screen 3 dot menu. Most people prefer this.
Unfortunately, I haven't had time to edit your android.policy.jar yet so you won't be able to longpress anything for recent apps menu.
So basically you lose access to the recent apps menu, but this gets rid of the 3-dot on-screen menu button and makes your recent app hardware button a menu button. In the future, this limitation will be fixed.
To revert, flash the UNDO.zip
Think we could flash one from the Evo 4g LTE? Or is the .Jar file different.
jar is probably different.
Lovin this one Con, great job.
This 3 button remap is key...I'm playing around flashing different test builds and this damn mod should be factory.
I'm using Nova Launcher, which has the option to use gestures for accessing recent apps. If I install this 3 Button Remap mod, my recent apps softkey will act as a menu button, but will the gesture I've set for accessing recent apps work as designed or will it also be remapped and act as a menu button?

Probably. It won't break recent apps. If there is something else that can trigger it, it will still work. It just disables your ability to get into it via hardware buttons.

Sweet, thanks. I'm gonna root and install this mod tonight... I'll post a definitive answer in case anyone else wants to know.
I forgot to include an Undo.zp
I will make that shortly.

Just installed the 3 button mod... all is well. In Nova Launcher, the gesture to bring up recent apps still works. But this only applies to when you're on your home screen.For viewing recent apps while you're in an app, I've set the menu button (formerly recent apps button), the open recent apps with a long press.
Love this mod.
Any chance you can create a mod like this to remap recent apps to search?

its in ukb lte rom...if you dont want to use that rom for it...you can use hans"s stock deodexed rom and pull android.policy.jar...but you need to be deodexed so either rom is necessary
Has there been any more development made on this? I really want to remap the buttons, but I don't want to lose my Recent Apps either.

I'm using ukb lte rom. Recent apps button is now "settings". And long pressing the home button brings up "recent apps". Its perfect, I think.

I'm not really interested in flashing a new ROM right now, as I'm pretty happy with Sense as it is. Also, I'm not sure what use Settings is like that. I'd rather have the Recent Apps button do Menu.

UKB is a Sense ROM and it has the recent apps button as the menu. Plus it has a bunch of other features stock does not come with.

essentially the difference between ukb and stock sense is
advanced power menu (reboot recovery, hboot, hot boot)
remove htc linkify (app associations)
button remapping (back button is same, but long press home key is recent apps, and recent apps button is a menu key)
edit: and extended quick settings of course
theres a ton of other stuff but id consider those the main differences
I Have galaxy s3 with kitkat, and samsung chose to remap the buttons.
how can i change the menu button from recent apps to menu, and long press on home button to recent menu, as been before?
I have root, so i can do anything
Thanks!

By using xposed framework with xposed additions module you can achieve this.

Did you explored settings?
Usually custom ROMs allows users to change behavior of every buttons.

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
