Is there any way to reconfigure the soft keys (navbar) to do something else?
For example to toggle flashlight on long press back key..
Or such...
Without root.
Thanks!

You need to edit /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl appropriately

Is there anyway to remap the menu, home, and back keys once rooted?
This basic idea worked for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759888
Needs root and make sure you use your devices key values and put it in Generic.kl. I'm left handed and found back way too far to reach for.
I'd be more interested in being able to turn off the home button being able to wake the phone from sleep.
I'm on Eclipse. I've enabled the soft keys and tried disable the hardware keys by putting a # symbol in front of the keys in generic.kl or whatever it is. My home button is disabled. However, the menu and back keys still work. I cannot disable them. I've deleted their lines and everything. Is there another way to do it?
I use lmt and want to disable soft keys. I edited the ./system/usr/keylayout/generic.kl
I commented out key 158(back) and 139(home). this disabled back button but recents apps soft key still active.
Anyone know the name of the left soft key that opens up active apps or what key number it is?

APP_SWITCH i think is the name.
