anyone know if it's possible to assign a shortcut to the softkey action
(ie. the softkeys are different in word to those on the today screen, can i assign a shortcut to that action)
i use a bluetooth keyboard which can be configured to any shortcut. it would be real handy to be able to just hit a couple of keys rather than reach for the devices tiny screen everytime i want to activate the menu.
cheers
on the Droid you just hold the home button.
on the captivate doing that just brings up my Launcher Pro screen. ( choose between launcher pro or twSamsung )
I know I could just make LP default but I don't want to yet.....
I just cleared my default launcher app (so it brings up the dialogue on which launcher to use when you press home), held down the home button and it still brought up the recent apps screen.
Same here launcher pulls most recent when holding home button. "thanks i didnt know about holding the button "
There's a setting in LauncherPro to set the home screen behavior on long press, double press, etc.
TouchWiz also has this as well. I discovered it from a previos thread, just hold it for an extra second or two and it gives you the last 6 apps you opened.
My home button only brings Google Now on the stock launcher or regardless of what I try on Nova launcher.
This forum sucks ass
Just found out how. Press and hold home soft key (little round icon center bottom)
I have a xtrons PX5 unit that has capacitive buttons for power, home, eject, vol up, vol down.
The screen task switcher only shows on the launcher, not in any apps. So I'd like to get a hw button to open the task switcher, and maybe some more for prev/next on media. There are a number of bluetooth buttons that attach to the steering wheel. Has anyone tried those? Will they work? I heard the bluetooth only connects with specific devices. Or if I could long press 'eject' to have it open the switcher that'd be nice too.
Thanks
Is there any way to turn off the screen (lock the device) without the need to press the right power button?
for example, with OPO you could long press the home button and the device got locked.
thanks!
you can use Custom Navigation bar and add a power button to either side of the nav bar

If you run Nova launcher, you can go to Nova settings, gesture & input and select screen lock for your desired gesture.
actually i just downloaded this app

If you use the edge panel, use softkey edge. It has a screen lock button.

i think theres a lock option in the assistant menu,furthermore you can use the bxactions app with nova launcher and remap actions to lock the screen.
