Is there also one for the "trackball" ? Would be perfect for me If not, I'll try one of the above anyway. Thanks!

how to deactivate if you dont like it?

No they haven't found a way yet to use the trackball as a wake up call. Seem's strange as all the other buttons work. I'll have a look in other places tho, If I find it I'll post it.
Good point Simc13, I'll quickly make an update zip that'll restore normal functionality.

Re: [MOD] Wake up using Home, Menu, Search or Back
What about to use volume down key to wake up the phone? I think it would be an easy way.

I am not sure if this would make sense, as the volume rocker keeps working when you are listening music and the screen is off.

hi, im the one named Burst on www.android-hilfe.de
i want to set a link to the original post here on XDA where the mod has started
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683902

work with any button
Hi guys. This post was exactly what I was looking for.
I flashed only the search key to wakeup.
Result: now it wakes up with any button (also volume and trackpad).
Is it my mistake (which one?) or what?
Just flashed from the recovery and rebooted.
Thanks for your support

Thankyou soooo much! Just what I wanted!

Trackball.

Is needed all wipe??

@kingChris
I'll add your link to the first post mate.

It's nice to see mods with different buttons working. I used kingchris's mod as soon as he posted, and it's been working great since then.

is it possible to have the same function as stock hero 1.5/2.1 where u press the menu button twice, it unlocks the lockscreen?

i have looked in system/usr/ and there are more files showing key numbers, i couldnt find trackball tho..

Does this work with MCR 3.1?

Moving the menu button back where it belongs

Let's face it, the menu belongs on your left thumb. We all know it.
It's not a hard fix.
First, you need to root your phone. Next, get Root Explorer from the market. (Other file managers and text editors can be used, but Root Explorer makes it easy.)
Navigate to /SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT/s3c-keypad.kl
(If you aren't using Root Explorer, make a backup copy of the original file before you edit!)
Open s3c-keypad.kl and make sure you are set to read and write the file.
It will look like this:
#
# NAGSM_SEL_FRAMEWORK
# abhilash.b - Keymaping and added custom labels - SYMBOL , MULTITASKER, SMILEY
#
key 16 1
key 17 2
key 25 3
key 33 4
key 41 5
key 49 6
key 2 7
key 10 8
key 18 9
key 67 0
key 68 Q
key 65 W
key 3 E
key 11 R
key 19 T
key 27 Y
key 35 U
key 43 I

key 45 SEARCH
key 53 Z
key 61 X
key 6 C
key 14 V
key 22 B
key 30 N
key 38 M
key 54 SMILEY
key 29 ENTER
key 15 SHIFT_LEFT
key 23 ALT_LEFT
key 56 AT
key 48 COMMA
key 63 SPACE
key 64 PERIOD
key 32 QUESTION
key 40 VOICE_INPUT
key 46 SHIFT_RIGHT
key 7 MULTITASKER
key 34 BACK WAKE_DROPPED
key 66 MENU WAKE_DROPPED
key 8 HOME WAKE
key 42 VOLUME_UP WAKE_DROPPED
key 58 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE_DROPPED
key 26 POWER WAKE
key 50 DPAD_CENTER WAKE_DROPPED
key 39 FOCUS
key 31 CAMERA
# Need to be interchanged later - abhilash.b
...Now, switch the HOME WAKE to the key 66 line and put the MENU WAKE_DROPPED on the key 8 line.
When you save it, Root Explorer cleverly makes a backup of the original for you.
Now, reboot and enjoy. The menu is back where it belongs (top left) and the home button has moved to the cancel key position--upper right.
It's easy fix and it makes the device feel more like home.

Lol same thing for me, im used to it now

hahaha omg i totally didn't even think about this. I might have to do this for the question mark too...

Would this allow us to change the trackball click function into a search button? Because that woukd solve the biggest flaw on this phone.
And if so, would trackball scrolling still work for text selection? I like that, just don't really use the trackball click. I'm guessing the trackball button would be the one labeled "center" right?

WOO! Thanks now it feels like my phone is fulfilled!

You can put your search button on the "multitasker" button. The key still works as a jump key when the phone is open.
You will lose access to your recent apps, but you can take care of that with a new launcher or a "prehome" app.
Just replace MULTITASKER with SEARCH.

I tried doing this without root explorer (don't want to pay) and I ant find any app that will open the file. I edit it and then I reboot my phone, nothing changes.

the search button works when changed to the trackpad thanks everyone

would this work on forcing the enter key to send a message instead of just creating a line break?

root browser lite by JRUMMY16, free from market. got it just now to do this. worked perfectly. automatically makes a backup of the file for you when you save your edits. app seems solid overall.

alright, i changed the SMILEY key to ALT_RIGHT and it TOTALLY WORKS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

This is perfect!
My Sidekick 4g took a bath this summer in a creek...the joy damage was the Back button stopped functioning.
I used this post to switch the Jump button to Back, since I never used the Jump button...and my phone works great now. Thanks!

very helpful, even though i'll probably screw this up. Is it possible to change jump key into launching a pre home app, like URL="https://playDOTgoogleDOTcom/store/apps/details?id=mohammad.adib.sidebar.lite"this one? (too new, cant post links)

How can I do that is the Jump key the one that says Multitasker?

Wake the phone with other button?

So my power button is like broken.. and its giving me hell to "try" to fix it.. (i've opened the phone and started to touch it and move it.. to make it work).. so.. i don't want to use it anymore..
I was wondering if there is a way to wake up the phone using the volume up/down buttons.. or the menu buttons? i'm running CM10..

There is an option somewhere in settings called volume rocker wake.
Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse

Tasker has that capability when the "secure settings" plug-in is installed.
You could trigger it from a Tasker gesture (involves moving the phone in space) or shake... both of which are detected by accelerometer.
Edited to add: Andros' solution sounds simpler.

cool.. i found it under screen settings.. also.. is there a way to lock the screen WITHOUT touching the powerbutton?

Remapping the Physical Buttons

well, recently I've been trying to remap the softkeys on the note II, and I'm just not making progress. My goal is to create a small mod that turns the softkey lights off, and remaps the menu key for the back key, and the back key to recents, as well as somehow changing the home button longpress to a google now shortcut.
After doing some research, I figured changing the Generic.kl (/system/usr/keylayout/) lines 139 and 158 would make progress. However, all I've accomplished so far is disabling the softkeys.
Any help or information on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
- and yes, I tried the ButtonRemapper apk

I made this file months ago, and it's worked on every TW rom I've had, since I HATE the backwards button layout Samsung chose. Download this file, go to your /system/usr/keylayout folder, rename your existing sec_touchkey.kl to sec_touchkey.kl.bak, then move the file I gave you into that folder. Set permissions and reboot, and you'll have the setup you want.
Obviously, just turn the backlights off in the Display settings. Do note that you won't have a menu button after you do this, I just use Button Savior to put a little shortcut off to the side. But if you come up with a more elegant solution, please feel free to let me know.
That file should do what you want, all I ask is that you credit me if you share it with anyone, put it in a rom, or whatever.

/system/framework/android.policy.jar/PhoneWindowManager.java
At leasts thats what i can remember lol. Thats what i had to edit on my Tablet to make long press on home function as long press search.

Yeah, I'd love to find a way to enable a long press of the right hand capacitive button (back button stock, but it's the task switcher with that file I posted) to act as a menu button. That would be awesome.
Alternatively, I'd love to figure out how to change the TW soft keys to AOSP theme and layout. I love using soft keys, but I can't stand the backwards layout Samsung has chosen, and can't bring myself to using it if I can help it.

hi, is there any way to wake-up screen without home key, power key and volume key? actualy my home button is now not as hard as it was before, i am afraid it may damage some day, so does power key, i know about few apps which wakes up using sensor, but it's not for me, it drains battery too much, i want something like waking up phone with capative touch keys, or swiping them, is it possible to change key 172 which is home button to a menu key for waking up? in system/usr/keylayout/ ?

the situation is simple.. ALL IS POSSIBLE..
i you know java code as advance user, i can send you files witch you should recompile
but.. the situation is simple.. if you always turn on the soft buttons, you'll lose a lot of energy, since ALL screen is alimented..
Soft touch buttons uses the same touch as screen, so, you always have to aliment it
ok.. 2 issues:
1) if leg touch the soft button, screen will be turned on
2) showp-1984 creates the swipe2wake, for htc phones, you need a lot of c++ knowledge to recompile it
But.. in my opinion, buttons are "immortal" than soft touch..
I have an old keyboard.. it had about 12 years.. and works good.. and.. i used it for 6 years til change, so, dont be scary, i don't think you are breaking your buttons!!
---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------
Btw.. i find the code witch is the governor of the buttons.. it's in android.policy.jar file.. and.. i tryed to force the hold home button to hold menù button, and sure, it worked, with one issue: menù always had the search function
So.. the situation is simple... i don't know how to code with java, and sure, i need a good java programmer to do what i whould do.. at last.. only one "stupid thing".. change the hold home button app switch to menù.. so.. i could have:
Menù button as app switch with 1 press (easy to do)
standard press of home as move home function and hold it for the android MENU
And back as always
I only need one coder witch can modify me the @8 VALUE
Any good person??

I see, actually you're right, i forgot that we have to decompile android.policy.jar to be able to change wake up keys, i remember it when i saw someone changed wake-up key to volume buttons through android.policy.jar, it's quite strange that with samsung decvices which uses physical home button to screen wake, doesn't have any mod to alternative method, one you already mentioned sweep2wake, a pleasent feature to relief power button of htc devices, what about the relief for Samsung's physical home key? i am not so fussed about other use of physical key, i only want to change screen wake key to capacitive menu key or something like sweep2wake..i can see after sometime, lots of users complain about home key, so a handy mod should be there.
by the way can you send me an edited file with menu (capacitive button) wake up enabled?

I think is not easy whaylt ypu would do.. and sure.. you have to modify more than 1 jar file.. because.. i ONLY have to REMAP a button, so, stock, only have to do ANOTHER THING... you want to change a power features.. i think you have to modify the kernel (sweep 2 wake is a feature of the kernel, not of the rom.. kernel is writed in c++.. android is writed in java, uses the java machine)

Oh right.. one thing.. emh.. in my opinion.. button is a button, and samusung did some test about the resistence of the button
Sure.. time destroys all.. so.. you could have a softly botton after 12 months.. but.. i don't think you'll damage it soon..
Warranty is here.. you can send phone to the costructor if you have a problem
P.s. i have old phones, as like a siemens s10.. and.. ALL buttons are ok..
That phone was used by:
Dad > mom > me > brother > second brother
It has about, 8years of usage.. no prob..
Dont know why you are so worried!

This is an expensive phone, so we would definitely worry about it i know it does rarely broken, but it does more or less, i don't know why samsung intend to choose physical home instead of capacitive, i had HTC Sensation, and i was glad to use sweep2wake on it to save power button, samsung's power button gives loose feeling right out of the box like it'll break anytime, so samsung needs sweep2wake or something like that much more than HTC devices, hopefully some devs will look at it, THIS WAKE-UP KEY NEED TO BE HACKED AND REPLACED, simple is that, although soft keys gives it little bit relief, but we have to wake-up device atleast 30-50 times in working days, so that's why i am really looking forward to it, can we both join hands to bring developers attention toward it? if you also want to wake-up screen with anything other than physical keys i'm sure you must be missing sweep2wake in note 2

I didn't use s2w.. why? It uses too mouch energy in standby
showp is one of my great friends in xda, and i love his kernel + his MPDECISION code
Btw, for me, you are crazy
Never ever had problems with phone buttons.. i had an n95, i sent about 1 bilion of sms.. here in italy vodafone created a promo witch gives about 100free sms per day.. i used everytime all the sms.. and.. sure.. i had to press the send button 2 timed every sms + all the other
I used that phone for 3 years.. changed it with an hd2... bought the first day (n95) and hd2 used.. 365 days x 3 = 1095.. 1095 x 100 = 19500 x 2 = 219,000 + all the other used to navigate in menù
Btw.. n95 was broken in display cable.. all buttons perfect!!

has anyone tried ButtonRemapper? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464

Yep and didnt work!

Haven't seen this posted yet and each phone is a little different. Curiously it's more like the Note II than the SIII.
1) Open Root Explorer
2) Navigate to: /system/usr/keylayout/
3) Press 'Mount R/W'
4) Long hold 'gpio-keys.kl' and choose "Open in Text Editor"
5) Remove "WAKE" from the line "172 HOME WAKE"
6) Back out, Save, Reboot
Enjoy

I think that would require a modification to a framework jar. Ill see if I can find it.

Home2 shortcut app should work. Simply download it, follow the instructions, then disable the home button shortcut in the svoice settings.

Why would you want to do this unless you could reassign it or add another way to wake up device?

Well... the power button wakes the phone up just fine. I also worry that it can get pressed while in my pocket.

Coming from the Galaxy Note I enjoy the Home Button to wake the phone instead of always having to use the Power Button.
What I'd like to see is Google Voice search shortcut while holding the Power Button instead of the Task Manager.

Just long-press Menu to bring up GNow...then you not only have access to voice search, but the famous GNow cards that might answer your question, anyhow.

That and also in any app, long press on the menu button acts as the search button within the app.

Just throwing this out there - I read here and in the .kl file that it is not good to mess with the generic.kl file. Does anyone know which would be the best .kl file to edit?
I want my volume keys to wake the phone and when i add wake to those keys in the generic file, my power button no longer sleeps the phone...

As mentioned, Power button works the same. I don't need two ways to turn it on. I keep my phone in a belt case and it's tight enough that just putting it in the case turns the phone on. I'm tired of checking to see, so I did this mod today. Actually, it's one the biggest reason I rooted today! Mod worked great, thanks given. Much happier now.

Well I guess you need the Google Voice search shortcut while holding the Power Button instead of the Task Manager. Enjoy.

Task manager still works the same as before. I don't use Google Voice or Google Now.
