[Q] [REQ] Map Power button as shutter...

Is it possible to remap the power button as the camera shutter button while in camera mode? It's really hard to find the on-screen button when not looking at the screen (self portraits).
Thanks,
Greg

Sorry, I thought that was part of the original thread. I am pretty sure it's possible by the same basic principle being that when you go into CWM recovery and voodoo recovery they both remap the power button. I'll see if I can find the file and post back.

Thanks! And this would be only during the camera mode?

Now I remember, there is a program that does this for you called Button Remapper. It is located in the Market as a pay app or in these forums at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 Unfortunately, our phone is only partially supported and you can only remap the soft keys.
Sorry to bring bad news. Hopefully this will change in future updates.

Well that's no good! Lol. I hope that some progress can be made with this.

US Cellular is 6 months behind everyone else because they test their phones 6 months longer than everyone else.
I would rather have the phones late and have them work then have them early and be recalled and/or lots of issues.

That's true - which reminds me that my friend had to un-root his droid x to download an official update for some bugfixes. I'd rather have a stable phone with no issues and a network reception

You should work for them. It's awesome. I get updates from customers about what we are getting. lol...
Really it's a great place to work, but we do test the heck out of stuff. It can seem ridiculous, but there's method to the madness I suppose.

Somebody please update this thread if you find a way to do this.

There is something to be said for quality testing and also for dragging your feet and in my opinion I am leaning more to dragging your feet, this phone has been out for awhile and there is not that many software differences from the Fasinate so I think its USCCs answer to "were testing for your saftey" does not = horrible crash if we dont test it, and does = to we dont have froyo yet....lol

Samsung is known for being lax in getting out updates, also. If Samsung gets it to us late, we can't test it any earlier than they get it to us. Yes we are slow to test, but often have the least buggy releases. Fascinate's froyo had bugs and had to be sent back. They still don't have it. We use the same base... Just sayin.

Puzzle Piece Lock Screen?

Ok.... Galaxy S N00B here. If I have a text message or a missed call or something, my lock screen is a puzzle piece.... If I do not, it is the Sweep Lock Screen... I would REALLY like to be able to have the Puzzle Lock Screen ALL the time. Is that possible? Oh yeah, I have the Showcase from Cellular South

They are working on porting over the ULTIMATE rom from the i9000, which includes the ability to have that lock screen. It'll also incorporate the extra power options such as download/recovery etc. Unfortunately at this point they are porting it for the mez but maybe you can be involved in the port to the showcase.

The good thing about porting is that the individual mods can be separated out and used individually. If I ever get it all working, it shouldn't be too hard to port the lock screens to the Showcase.

Awesome. but as much I use to be a rom flash addict, I would really just like to have the puzzle piece lock screen without a new ROM. I plan on sticking it out until the official froyo release from Cellular South because, I will be honest, I LOVE the Samsung Galaxy S UI for android. It knocks HTC out of the water for sure. But, there could be a way to "trick" the phone into thinking there is some kind of notification without there being one. IDK... I guess I need to put my big boy panties on and try developing on the Showcase because it is a WHOLE lot different than the Hero I am use to. haha

The answer to your question is obvious. The answer to mine is not quite as clear now, is it? Your question in no way even mirrors mine. Not even as a smart ass attempt at humor. It's not clever, nor does it reflect any proposed "flaw" in my question. I bet you'd have a very tough time explaining how your question functions as a response to mine. I'd like to see you try.
Anyway, Samsung left a track pad out of the design of this phone, making a soft keyboard the only way to arrow up, down, left and right. They also chose not to have the keyboard pop up when long-pressing the menu key, which is a double slap in the face.
Just about every Android phone out there will pop up the soft keyboard when the menu key is held down. Not this beaut. So does anyone have a solution?

actually his reply does correspond to your first question.

For that matter I can't figure out why my truck has no trunk. Help please?

The first one was a stretch. This one is simply pathetic. Instead of attempting to explain your first weak shot, you throw another worse one. Brilliant. When people get frustrated and unable to come up with an appropriate response, this is exactly what they do. Relax, pal.

PS3 isn't a "they" and Sony didn't "decide" not to make "their" (not "there") system play Wii games. It wasn't a decision they had a choice in making. You have no idea what you're talking about. Please try again.

I don't think it is going to work. You'll have to smali edit the android.policy.jar file to make this happen. This is something I want and I've been meaning to look into. The fact someone has it done means I might be able to figuire it out for ours. Don't hold your breath though

Boot Logo?

I know that the Devs are hard at work cooking up some new android goodness, can't wait to see some roms hit the floor. Thanks for the recovery and root method Shabby, must be some kind of record with the speed you accomplished this.
I have attempted to apply my rather limited skill set to the boot logo, damn warning aggravates me every time I think about it. I figured it wouldn't hurt to get a thread started to discuss some possibilities as to how this might be changed.
I ran across this thread in the Atrix forum, i doubt it would be this easy, but was hoping for some input.
