Mute incoming calls with volume button

Is there a way to mute incoming calls with volume buttons? I have kph.
I have been serching any code for buil.prop with no results.
I know there is a phone.apk for Galaxy S, to flip mute, but is not working on i9003, it crash. And I read it have some problems, e.g. muting calls while in pocket.
Any help?

I used it but it dont work in KPH, it crash. And if it works, it have problems when incoming calls with the phone in your pocket, because it reduce the volume and sometimes you cant hear it.

[Q] app to end call?

Is there an app that can end a call? i am using CM7, it will be very usefull if there is such an app that i can assign it to the long press of the search key

why not just use the end call button?

My thoughts exactly????

I would think it'd be rather difficult to hold the search key when I could just press the huge red button

i brought up this point is because, sometime when i accidentally press the home key, or need to check other info during a call, then, it will just become convenient with an app like that

[GUIDE] Change wakeup key to the 3d toggle button (MODS PLease move to development

Do you ever felt that you have too small hands for the o3d? Or you just don't like to stretch your finger all the way to the top for unlocking your device? Then you should try this. With this tweak you can unlock the device with a click on the 3d button.
You can only do this in recovery with mounted system and ADB.
In adb *adb pull /system/usr/keylayout/omap-keypad.kl C:\
Open the file in wordpad and you get a list with different buttons. Scroll down to
3D_HOT_KEY
change it to
3D_HOT_KEY WAKE
Save the file and push it back to your phone
*adb push C:\ omap-keypad.kl /system/usr/keylayout/omap-keypad.kl
REBOOT YOUR DEVICE!
You can also assign other buttons the wake up function e.g the volume rocker by adding the line WAKE after it
GOOD LUCK

It does not work, maybe it works when the phone is connected with cable but when it is in deep sleep mode it does not work at all.

Yeah i noticed that now. You can lock it and within about 20 sec you can unlock it with the 3d button but then it enters deep sleep.
Did you try it?

Yes I have been trying to do this for a quite a time now nothing seems to be working. I hope you find a way to do it power button is soldered not the part of motherboard itself so if it breaks you are in trouble. I don't understand why LG made this kind of mistake.

I also tried to edit the qwerty.kl but it had the same results. One way would be to write a script that prevents the phone to enter deep sleep but i guess it would drain alot of battery. Am i right?

Exactly my friend that will drain the battery. I think maybe they'll review this problem in upcoming ICS update.

But how if the power button is not connected to the software ?

I don't know I was to wishing they might resolve this issue.

I've noticed that when you plug your headset in that you can press the headset button and the music will start. And beacouse the music is on the phone is not in deep sleep mode and then you can press the 3d button to wake the screen. So if I could somehow make the 3d button act like the headset and not start the music when I press it then this should work!

It won't work that way.
When the music is playing, it's not in deep sleep mode as you stated.
If you want to use the 3D Button to wake it instead, why not switch the Power Button and the 3D Button functions.
Power Button = 3D function
3D Button = Power function

So the power button is then connected to the motherboard and the software?

Not necessarily.
The power button will function as the power button when off, but when on, the functions change.

Now how do i do that??

How do you take a screenshot on Android 4.2 without a hardware volume or home button?

The only hardware buttons I have are Power and Esc.. oddly. Valid answers do not involve rooting or connecting other devices.

Volume Down +Power
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda app-developers app

Set one of your soft keys "long press" to screenshot,,, not all ROMs have this ability though

Amazing that someone actually said "volume down and power"...
Anyway turns out you just go to settings > screenshot settings > enable button. Or something like that. All very obvious really.

Almost all ICS+ devices have Volume Down + Power button for screenshot if I'm not wrong. That's why I said it

Are you running a custom ROM or is it stock AOSP?

use toggle

Again, this is already answered. And again by me. Doesn't this forum have a "mark as answered" button?
Come to think of it the last time I got an answer here was probably before these forums included Android. Not sure why I still bother..

Hey,
I wanted to ask if anyone knows if it's possible to remab the B button to a double click maybe to skip songs in Spotify for instance.

Actually you can skip spotify songs using your earphone, double press the answer/mute button in the control wire. But regarding your request. Yes the answer is bxActions.
