I am trying to remap the menu button to pull up the recent app and long press from menu. Then have long press of the home button pull up Google now. I am able to easily do this with CM, but I want to have this feature and run AOKP.
Did some searching on this. I know you can got to the file in system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl and edit the remapping of the keys. The closest I could get was changing key 139 to "App_switch" but this brings up the old gingerbread app switcher and not the multi task menu.
If someone could lead me in the right direction that would be great.
Good question. I sign looking for a way to program my back button to long press=kill.

Are there any flashable mods out there?

Would you consider changing ROMs? RootzBOX has the options you are seeking. It also has all of the AOKP features as that is its base.
Hi guys, thanks to the invaluable help of users Wesley32 and jug6ernaut, I've managed to port my Recent Apps key mod to the AT&T version of the G2. See the original verizon thread for details. In short, it replaces the Menu Key with Recent Apps, and allows you to Long Press on home to pull up the menu.
To install, flash ATT_RecentAppsKeyMod_v0.2.zip using TWRP.
Update 10/1
I've merged this with burningmember's no-carrier, no-brightness and no-volume slider mod from this thread
Here's the version with the black status bar: ATT_RecentAppsKey-NoVolume-NoBrightness-BlackBar.zip
And with the stock gray status bar: ATT_RecentAppsKey-NoVolume-NoBrightness.zip
I've also included a mod that will force apps to display the "vertical ellipsis" Action Bar overflow menu. To install it, flash ATT_EnableActionBarOverflowMenu_v0.2.zip. Be aware that enabling the overflow menu will put a big ugly menu button at the bottom of any activity that has a menu but doesn't have an action bar, including the built-in Settings and Phone apps.
Please note that you need to flash both ATT_EnableActionBarOverflowMenu_v0.2.zip and one of the SystemUI mods if you want the Recent Apps key mod and the overflow menu. The overflow menu mod will work by itself also, if you don't care about changing the nav bar.
*** Reverting ***
If you decide this isn't for you, flash ATT_RevertSefnapMods.zip, which will restore the stock versions of all affected files, namely:
Code:
/system/app/LGSystemUI.apk
/system/app/LGSystemUI.odex
/system/framework/android.policy.odex
/system/framework/framework.odex
Please let me know if anything is broken or if you have any problems installing.
Thanks, and enjoy!
I'm assuming this will replace the navbar size mod so could you make versions in the same sizes? I really like freeing up some space with the medium size. This is awesome though I will definitely flash this over the size mod. Just something I was wondering. Thank you for this, man. Awesome work.
Edit: just flashed and the size mod is still applied. Awesome work. This is great. Thank you so much. My status bar mod, however reverted back to stock. Any idea how I could get them working together? I was using the black status bar w/ sliders mod for at&t.

Well that's the last time you can use that excuse . Great mod, been checking your other thread waiting for this to show up. I'm with the other guys on the requests, basically centerclock w/o amm, No carrier, and battery percent. Not that I am even requesting this. That in my OPINION would complete this mod. Great work by the way.

depends entirely on what CleanRom is based on. If it is based on the Att rom, then it should.

Sefnap, any chance you can look at getting this working on the "basicROM" it flashes beautifully, but the menu overflow,mod does not work, nor the long press home for settings. That ROM. is sweet, but without settings and your overflow menu, I had to revert to Clean ROM... Not that is a bad thing

I have the same question / issue.
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk 2
Is this compatible with the Canadian D803 as well?
Anyone got a screenshot what the version with the black status bar looks like?
Also this is flashable over the stock odexed ROM, right?
Not sure about the other mods, but flashing the on-screen overflow menu action bar will soft brick the D803.
Don't flash for d800, your phone won't get passed the boot screen.
My recommendation for replacing the Menu button by Recent Apps is to use the Xposed framework. I was able to do it with the G2 TweaksBox module 2.0 RC3.
I'm trying to go back to stock. The ROM I'm using now allows 5 customized navigation buttons. This seems to be the only mod I can't do without. Does anyone know how to get 5 nav buttons and your nav bar on a stock or close to stock rom?
My nav bar actions:
second action is long press
pull down notification bar, torch
home, search
back, kill app
recent app list, last app
app drawer, settings

Only thing that may be able to do this would be an Xposed framework and module for Nav Bar customizing. Try Gravitybox or one of them.

You could try Ultimate Dynamic NavBar (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.udn&hl=en). May be what you are looking for.
Thanks but they don't have all the options im looking for

You sure about that? They have like 20 different options and you can cram 9 different buttons on the nav bar. I doubt the custom rom you were playing with had more options than that.

UDN does not have a notification bar pull down action. I believe it did not have another action I have listed above but I can't remember and unfortunately I have refunded my purchase. I also don't like that it's an app.

I think you are being too picky. If you are wanting to be on stock ROM, the only way you are going to get those customizations are with Xposed or an app. If neither does the job, you should just stay on the ROM you are using.
I'm not to picky, I live without a lot of options. My rom has tons of options and all I want is its navbar settings in xposed. I think the only customization this phone really needs is a personal smaller navbar.

Currently the "Settings" button, which you can find when pressing "menu", is only able to open launcher specific settings.
I think it would be great, if we would be able to choose which settings to be opened, the system or the launcher settings.
In previous versions of android opening the system settings was default behaviour so I am wondering every time when the launcher settings come up :laugh:
What do you think?
cheers, unh0ly1

We already have this option. But your gapps must be replacing it with Google's launcher which we can't control.
You can ask in your gapps's thread how not to replace aosp launcher with Google launcher.

Thanks for your reply. I will check this tomorrow Me and a friend (both omni users on galaxys2 intl version) had the same problem, so I was thinking this was the state of art. Tell you more tomorrow :good:
Okay, I double checked now. When I press "Menu" > Settings, I get what you see on the image attached. This is, because its not tranalated, a part of omni, isnt it? Is there a way to restore the androod default behaviour?

Is there a ways or app that can be used to change what a soft key does.
For example to open "Utter" instead of google search when clicking on search.
I installed "Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons" for Xposed and like it but I want to change the action and clicking on search......
In other works, remapping softkeys
Thanks
There is no search button on standard softkeys anyway. Just home recent and back button. I think you may mean the nav ring but either way settings for then can be changed in most custom ROMs now a days

Like I said in my opening post I installed "Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons" for Xposed and added the search softkey in the navbar. I don't use the navring and still using stock rom.
On the AICP rom you can change them to whatever you want and also do a long press and a double press as well. It's great.
