When we open up this file in text editor, is it possible to direct the camera hardware key to open up a different camera app?
They have it in the development section to make the Genius button open up Google Search, I'm trying to make the Camera button open up Camera360.. Any ideas on what to replace key 211/ key 212 with?

Can't you setup the camera button from the application defaults when you first press the camera button? Like home replacement apps, when you press home button, the set as default comes out. Check the application menu from the settings.
Yep. It's set as that but it only opens up Camera360 when a third-party application calls for a camera app and not when pressing the phone's hardware camera button.
I found an app called "Button Shortcut" that allows me to set any app for the camera button to open up, so that's perfect. I basically wanted to do it without requiring an app though, because it seems that the glacier-keypad.kl file is the file to edit (you just have to know what to write, which I don't lol)..

I've tried to set a new function to volume keys, in order to set them as up-down control, by using program PQzII. It works just fine while program is on run, but when I turn it off new setup dissapear. Problem with this program is that while it's turned on a “strange” white icon appears in the top bar, like on this picture, and also it slows down the phone generally.

Is there any way to turn off the program and to save settings for volume keys? Also if you can recommand any other information for this I'd be greatfull.

anyone can help me with this?
Maybe some other solution?
Maybe You should give a chance to AeButton or SmartKeys?
I know AeButton has option of setting four different functions/apps/whatever to any key on i780. You can keep Volume up/down for short hold and set Page Up/Down and Scroll Up/Down for long hold or double/triple click.
I was using that sollution for some time and it worked well.
Only one drawback - I think its not a free app..

Ahh - I assume this does NOT work on stock, eh?
I'm liking the Infuse as my first stock phone, and slowly but inexorably feeling the pull over tot he dark side of rooting, modifying and ultra-customizing!
stock or whatever doesn't matter for this, it's just a tweak for touchwiz
I thought this was a pretty cool setup for those of us who need some more homescreen space but still want a clean look.
"Home2 Shortcut" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut
Plus "Simi Folder" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.th.android.widget.SiMiFolder
You can setup a folder in Simi Folder, then open Home2 and assign that folder to a certain button sequence.. For example, double home, home + menu, long press search..and a few others.
It opens very quickly and i have no issues with it. I love the added functionality and thought I would share.

Thanks for the tip! I'm an avid user of Simi folder, and this adds yet another great function to it. I would like to use double-tap menu-menu or back-back or search-search. Do you know if this can be done, or if its limited to the options given in Home2?
I'm afraid it does not.. It allows for double home, home menu, home back, and long press search combinations. I agree tho, double back or menu would be nice options to have, but the double home is good enough.

The famous ButtonRemapper is not working on ICS! Not on stock, not on cm9, not on SkyICS! It did work on GB.
I asked before in the forum but sadly none responded me so I did some experiments.
Basically all you have to do is to change the Generic.kl located under /system/usr/keylayout. You open it as a txt and change the line "key 217 SEARCH" to whatever you like (change the "SEARCH" part only). Here are some common ones: POWER, APP_SWITCH (recent apps), CAMERA.
After that save the file and reboot. It should work.
ps. I think why ButtonRemapper doesn't work is because it falsely saves changes to fluid-keypad.kl, a different file under the same directory as Generic.kl. I could be wrong.
I'm using button remaper on my JB port and its working fine.

Just to be clear this does not assign an app to long press search but to give a function. For example if you assign power to the search button when you press it it turns off your screen and when you long press it the power menu pops up.

1) for the camera app, is any way to get it to focus by tapping a place instead of dragging the crosshair icon?
2) for the Phone dialer, how do i make it so the dialer shows up automatically everytime i launch the phone app? i don't have launching the phone app and having to press an extra button to get the dialer to show up.
Also how do i delete all my contacts on the phone? i don't see an option for that.

1) No idea sorry!
2) If you're phone is rooted, there's an Xposed Module called 'Show Dialpad' which will do this.
3) Are your contacts stored on your sim card or are they saved to your Google account? If they're on your Google account it's easier to manage them via the web interface.
