AppSwipe, TaskOS
Thanks I will try them out. But I think I just found what I wanted was already built in win the home button long press.

Both AppSwipe and TaskOS can be launched by holding the search button, also the home button doesnt show running apps just rescent
Hi!
Is there a "Recent Programs" widget so that they are always visible on the HomeScreen?
Hi guys,
I'm currently running KelLMSKing MIUI Mod 2.8.1, but this question might apply to just about any ROM.
One thing bugging me about this ROM is that when I hit the search button, it opens up some MIUI search tool that I find kind of annoying. I would much rather have the search button open up the Google Search app. Is there any app, or any way that I can reassign the function of the search button to open up a different app?

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately this won't allow me to assign an app to the search key, only the defined functions in the app
Any other suggestions?

if you read the info about the app, i believe it explains how to add your own functions via adb.
Hi everybody, I'd like to know if there's a way to map the buttons of the dock.
I would like to change the "search" button of the phisical keyboard and let it open the recent app.
Is it possible?
Thank you in advance!

Ok so after some search I've found out that the easiest way to have something similar is to modify /system/usr/keylayout/asusec.kl using root explorer or similar.
If you modify the 'key 217' with 'APP_SWITCH' command and reboot you'll have the option to bring the app switcher and not the recent used app.
Still better then a useless key to me.
Check that your 'key 217' is now binded with the SEARCH command before modify it! If not search your number
Cheers

Scratch that, I'm a moron and didn't mount as r/w. I'm assuming though that there's no known way to map the hc/ics task switcher from the soft key?
Our nexus have search button which used to search within the running application, for eg, in music player if we press search button it used to search for songs in that player, but this feature is not available in 4.1. Wherever we are, pressing search button opens Google now! Does anyone know how to reassign that button to search within app only, and long pressing to open Google now??????

Look for button saviour on the play store maybe that could help but if anything majority of Rom let you pick a default app to use I'm guessing slim bean and my remapping is awesome

I am quite content with my GB NexusMod, however I cannot find a place in the settings to remap default apps. Isn't that standard with all roms? I tried button saviour pro and it is a piece of trash. I merely want to press the search key when on my home page and have the DuckDuckGo app pop up, just like the Google Search app did before I uninstalled it. Any suggestions?
