what is this button and what does it do and how to get it

thanks in advanced
That's the standard "menu" button. Only certain apps will display it, although it won't look like that on our transformers - on the transformer, it's a series of horizontal lines.
Run an app that's not Honeycomb optimized (pretty much any one out there) and you'll see it.

that is the menu button. when the app has additional settings and menus, you can access them via the menu button. sometimes though, the button will come up but there would be no additional menus.
If you want that look for the Xoom button mod thread

It looks different on Transformer cause ASUS changed the icon.

Yea one of the thing on the "cons" list of ICS was that you have to find the menu button every time... gnexus haters gonna hate

> when you enabled ics on screen buttons on cm 9.. there should be an option added at system under settings called navigation.. where you can hide/auto hide/always show, add edit soft keys.

Yeah, u can. u have to nable nav bar and set the height and width to 0px using apktool. im actually using it in that way.
well, heres my modded apk from my phone. (17th jul arjen's nightly)
it has navbar in portrait mode only. made it narrow, so it wont take up much space. on landscape it wont show. And u have the menu button on actionbar at all times.
i did this, so that i can hold my phone upside down, and still use it without bothering about the hardware buttons.
i dont have time to make a new apk or a flshable zip right now. push it to /system/framework
Could anyone do it for paranoid android?

You have this option in AOKP ICS.
There are lot more navigation options in Rom Control!!

Screen shot App

I'm coming from a samsung galaxy tab, which had a dedicated button on the button for screen shot, am i just missing that option somewhere? Or is their an app you guys can recommend. Thanks
Its ICS. Power + Volume down. I think there's also an option in settings to add a screenshot button to the navbar.
Settings>Asus customized settings>screenshot
Don't forget to switch to the higher quality png!
Cool... That works.. Thank u so much

Home button

Is there anyway to remove the circle that pops up when pressing the home button via the tablet? I am referring to the circle that has the other circle that says Google in it. I suppose one could call it an alternative route to Google Now/Search.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda app-developers app
Only time I saw that circle was when I didn't change the method of locking the tablet. And now that I use a password, Pressing home (both on screen and in dock) does nothing if the tablet is already unlocked. When locked they also do nothing until the password is keyed in....
Do you have any other intention for long pressing the Home key? I ask this because the Google Now shortcut only shows on a long press. It doesn't appear when you simply tap the key to go Home, so it's not going to bother too many people.
Ahhh, so that's it. I'm guessing the OP needs to change he long press timeout to medium or long to prevent this from happening....
I already have mine set to medium, so that's why I didn't see it. It didn't occur to me to long press.
@OP: Settings --> Accessibility --> Touch & hold delay - change to medium / long. You're inadvertently long pressing the home button and that is why you're seeing what you're seeing.
Okie dokie. It doesn't affect performance or anything but I don't use that method when opening Google Now so I didn't like having it pop up every time.

[Q] Changing menu button function

Hi
Ive been using Slimbean on my Sgs for months, and there I can configure the menu button action.
Im using short press to have contextual menu, long press to switch between apps.
On the tf300t with Inheritance (and other roms as well, i guess), the menu button acts as a recent apps switcher.
Is there a way to chose its function as well ?
Thanks
That's actually a recent apps switcher button. Samsung chose not to follow googles design protocols and altered the way the buttons work from stock. There's supposed to be a three dot button somewhere in every app to act as a menu button, and when app developers don't do this, this ui adds one to the Nav bar temporarily.
Short answer, no, I don't believe it can be changed. And frankly for good reason.
