Hi everybody,
I need help in finding a way to change the key functions of the navbar by editing the buildprop or editing similar commands/strings. I intend to assign a different function to the preset soft keys ( back - home - recent ). All that I can find on the web is applying a string (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1) at the end of the buildprop to completely hide the navbar . The apps that can be found in the store are only able to hide the navbar adding a new one instead. My aim is to keep the original navbar (I'm running a blisspop rom) changing the root functions of the soft keys .
Any help would be very appreciated .
You will need to edit it all in source. There is no easy way to do what you want let alone on a rom like bliss

Hey everyone,
This may seem like a noob question, but how do you alter the navigation configuration when building CWM? My recovery image I built seems to operate on the tilt of the accelerometer instead of any navigation keys. I didn't see anything in the device configurations that would lead me to a quick fix. I need to change the up and down navigation to the volume keys. Thanks!
Hello, XDA!
So recently, I found a flashable zip for a stock LG keyboard. I do have a problem though, when I use the keyboard, I have an annoying and useless T9 button and I want to move/resize some buttons.
Would it be possible to modify the apk from the zip to achieve what I am trying to go at? I prefer this keyboard than any other keyboard because this is the closest to the LG P690 stock keyboard in terms of speed I could find to the original, and this is what I'm accustomed to.
(Please see attachments)
What I'm trying to achieve is:
1.) I want to remove the T9 button, settings button and comma on the first layout.
2.) Move the comma into the symbol layout and move the keys according to the sample layout.
3.) I also need to let the spacebar fill the space the removed buttons used to take up.
Is this possible? I would be more than happy if someone could teach me/make it with the apk (if it is at all possible). I have included the flashable zip with the apk inside if anyone wants to try. Thanks!
Hi,
I had the same idea once and found this thread:
stackoverflow.com/questions/1670446/android-cutomized-keyboard-key-and-action
I gave-up because it looked uneasy (if not impossible)
Best.
Hi,
I've been trying to compile the original code for the power control widget from the "settings" app, but it won't because of the missing / hidden / internal classes,
I remember seeing someone with a modified Settings apk with more or modified buttons in the widget but I can't find the post anymore :/
Do you guys know how it can be done, do I need a special sdk or something ?
Thanks
No one can help ?
Hey community:
So my Problem is that I want to change the action for long-pressing the hardware keys.....
Well I know that all key functions are stored in the 'generic.kl' document, but I can't find the script or document for the long press actions anywhere do you guys have any idea where this could be stored???? I mean it has to be somewhere otherwhise the device would not know what to do if someone's long-pressing a hardware button......?! Would be very use- helpful!:fingers-crossed:
And I don't want to install any other launcher.
My device is the Samsung Galaxy S4 (but that's not really from interest, I guess, cause the generic.kl and those other documents are on every Android device)
I'm running kind of a stock Rom (Samy Deluxe S4 - M)
Hope anyone can help me!

I'm working on a custom ROM for myself based around the stock ROM for an Android 4.4.2 tablet. The tablet has a menu key, and as part of the ROM, I'm remapping this key as a task switcher key. I know how to do that, so that's not a concern to me.
The problem I'm having is that I need to set the "hasPermanentMenuKey" variable to false in the system framework. I know it can be done, as I've seen a number of other ROMs for different devices that pull this off easily.
Can anyone tell me which file I'd edit, and, frankly, how? I know how to edit APK files and I've been doing that for my ROM, but if it's not in an APK I'm confused as to how to edit it.
On the other hand, if it's easy enough to do, where is the bit to change?
Thank you very much (hopefully!)
