Hello,
I have done some searching, and I can not find one listed anywhere. Is there a mod for the 8013 to modify the Power down menu to include recovery, etc.? I know it is included in many of the ROMS, but I can't seem to find it on it's own. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for looking,
Chris
Just get quick boot from Google play...works great

Hi.. I am looking for a method to disable the Power button menu when the phone is locked. I also don't mind if the solution disables it permanently.
I was interested in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
But couldn't find more info on disabling the power button menu in that thread. Since I am new I can't post my question in that thread.. :-(
I am ok with a similar solution as in one which involves editing the dex/odex files. Even though I am not a developer I know my way around that.
I am using Nexus S with CyanogenMod 7.0.3
Thanks in Advance!
Why you want to do that?
With cyanogen, yo can unlock with trackpad only if you want
i am using Nexus S, so no trackball option for me.
any other option?
any other solution? anyone?? wud really appreciate the info..
Hi there,
I am running Android Revolution HD 3.0.3 ROM.
And I was wondering if anyone could tell me how I can change the power button menu? eg advanced power menu, for the restart of the phone to select additional options, like bootloader and recovery, make the phone silent, vibrate only...?
Is it also possible to change the quick settings from the drop down notifications, is it possible to add DYI shortcuts to these lists?
I asked the question in the forum for the ROM, but it gets so much activity, the question has been glanced over, and one answer I did not understand "It's called advanced power management, and the file for that is located in the OP with the rest of the mode. Look in there and you'll find it."
Regards
Dan
Anybody?
Please tell me if I was not clear in my post?
Use 2.1x it works well

He has @ the beginning of his post, a file you can flash through recovery that will add the advanced power menu options. I believe it has "APM" in the name of the file. Try the "add on's" section.

Thanks for your response, I was unsure about this, I see his post but the Advanced power menu states its for 2.1.x not 3 plus it isn't in the all ROMs section but specifically in the 2.1.x.
I will give it a try.
Perfect, thank you everyone, it worked a treat.
I would have tried it before asking if it didn't state 2.1.x
Hello
Is that possible ? the factory combination of pressing vol plus power button is tricky or at least I like to save the power button as much as possible...
Any useful idea is appreciated..
Thanks

Thanks for your input ... I am not looking for an app as most of them filled with silly ads or taking unnecessary resaurces ... I need to mod system to remap some key to take screen shots ... And I guess you're right it's somewhere around /system/usr/keylayout
Afaik not possible in stock but aokp/cm9+10 allows that remap in settings

There is an app called "screenshot er" that lets you take screenshots by holding down the search key, and it has a delay that you can set for however long you want, and it works amazingly well. No extra crap, just a really good app. I know it's not what you want, but it's worth checking out.

i agree with atrix ive used then Screenshot er app before the remmaping became available and works flawless
The power button and home key works for screen shots

I know this is an old thread, but all the screenshot remapping threads seem old, so I'm hoping I can get some help here anyway. My stock ICS on my S2 has home+power for screen shots. Hardware buttons died (home, menu, back, search) so i use softkeys to navigate, (Button Savior, works amazing, saved me a major headache) never the less, the screen shot doesn't work by pressing power and the home soft key. I've used other roms, like CM, where the screenshot is power+vol down and i want to use this method on my stock ICS. I to, don't want an app to do it, i just want power+vol down
Been trying to use xposed additions to remap for screenshot. not working so far and unsure of reasoning why, even bought the pro version to allow a multi step action to occur
Hello xda developers,
I just flashed CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly which installed android 4.2 onto my Samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 model GT-P5113. I am really happy with this update as I was able to keep my tablet rooted and upgrade to Jelly Bean. However, I am not sure about how to either add or setup a screenshot button like I had in the stock Samsung android ICS. is a screenshot setting available for Jelly Bean version 4.2? I would like to set up a screenshot option so that i can take a screenshot at anytime.
I thank you all for your help and assistance

Search in settings -> system -> power menu -> and ativate "screenshot" option.
Then if you long press power buton you will have the option to take a SS.
oh so thats how you do it...
Duarte777 thank you so much for your response. I really appreciate your help with this. Do you know if its possible to add a button so that it can do the screenshots instead of having to use the power button constantly? If anyone knows how I might be able to add that function I would be very
grateful.
Thanks

Pressing Volume Down + Power at the same time makes a screenshot.
Works on all Stock Android style ROMS like CM and AOSP.

i'm using that trick too
pressing power + volume down at the same times
okay okay...
I have been using the power button to take my screenshots, but what I really want to know is how I can add a button on the bottom menu with the back button and home button so that button can be my screenshot button. If anyone knows how to do that I would be really grateful. I tried adding a button but all I can add is a menu button or a blank button or a search button. I did that from settings...
Any ideas?...
Hi everyone,i looked for a lot of solution (here and on other forums) but none of them worked. Even Acer technics abandoned me so it's all up to software now.
I will explain briefly my problem.
The power off button of my Acer Liquid e2 (i posted this here because there are no specific board for this phone) became incredibly sensible,even when the phone is just standing on a table it hard power off because of the long press of the power off button all by itself.
Now,i tried cleaning it,insult him,even borrow him to the assistance (they said that the button is probably attached to the motherboard so no repair,buy a new one) Not a single hardware solution worked (this phone never took a hit,but i have no warranty).
So i tried software,i used two different application to understand what was the button pressed,thanks to keytracker and whichbutton now i know that the longpress of power off button is 116,and the function is KEYCODE_POWER.
Now i wanted to simply remap the hw key so it does nothing but none of the two button appear in Button remapper neither the number or the function. So i was thinking to manually edit the file that manage this kind of thing is that possible? How can i disable the power off button? Obviously the change must be made after the boot,and in a way that still let me power on the phone and unlock (for the unlock part i could just remap a long press of the back button). This is way out of my league. Any advice,any help any possible solution are much appreciated.
Sorry for my bad english and i hope someone can help,otherwise i will have to take another phone...and i really can't afford it.

Thanks for the help i will wait for the answer,i was thinking that if we find a way to disable only the power off function it will be perfect.
Please read this first http://source.android.com/devices/tech/input/key-layout-files.html
Ok, its in /system/usr/keylayout
Just edit the files in a text editor for your specific key number

I tried to edit that file even before posting here but the only key function for 116 is power wake.I looked for all the files in the directory and none of them refer to the function im looking for. Can you be more specific?

This is the only way to do it.
Except for some sort of xposed module if you find one.
Dont look for exactly it, but experiment and look for off the wall keys that might be helpful to edit.

I dont like to experiment with hardware key,im looking for a way to delete only the KEYCODE_POWER function,if i completely remove the 116 string i won't even be able to boot the phone and i don't like to brick things.
Edit: That kind of edit could work,the problem is that this string:
KEY 116 POWER WAKE
KEY 116 POWER
Should stop the problem from coming when in lockscreen,i suppose that will kind of work..thanks a lot i will try it and let you know.

I doubt it because the bootloader handles power on and the POWER function seems like it would allow you to turn the screen on. Do you want me to try it on my phone before you do it on yours?
And he never said to delete it, he only said to change it to just POWER not POWER WAKE.
Seems like to delete the keycode you would have to edit the android framework and that is beyond the scope of my efforts.
EDIT: Okay I got your reply.

I would like to thank you for the answer and the help you are giving to me,you are very kind to do so,
I can't find that specific file seckey.kl probably it varies from devices to devices..i managed to find two different files that both have the string power wake,and they are mtk-kdp.kl and querty.kl what do you think? i should probably edit both of them..but what do you think?

The android docs only said not to edit generic.kl so it seems your fine.
I would do a Recovery backup if possible then edit all of the key values.
And also make sure usb debugging is on so if you cant use the power button that you could recover with an adb shell.
Please hit the thanks button if you have the time.
