Menu unlock fix? DC 2.07

I've tried searching, but cannot find a fix. My phone always gets unlocked in my pocket and it's annoying. I know that another ROM has the ability to stop the phone's ability to unlock by pressing the menu button. Is there anyway to get this fixed without adding a a different kind of launcher or modifying the look of the original theme? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It's on the front page of the forum.

Another pocket call to 911 and I'm sure I'd be in jail.

I saw that, but do you not need to remove the HTCLockScreen and have a different layout as I stated? I just wanted to know if there was a fix without modifying the layout, changing the look or removing any functionality.
And thanks for being nice about it, MrTrip.

edit: NM, misread.

Around here they just fine you for that... (Although I hear it's a steep enough fine that you might actually prefer sleeping the night in jail....)

Change Keyboard sounds?

I've navigated through the system files to /system/media/audio/ui to try to find the Samsung Keyboard noise, but alas, unable to find.
Anyone able to help me out on this? Is there an application that lets you modify application sounds? I understand the ogg file converter and pushing via cmd prompt, so if you could tell me where the Samsung Keyboard sound is that'd help the poppaloppin' noise is too loud for my taste. I know you can disable it but I prefer another sound. Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing. I have the Samsung Vibrant stock 2.2 and with the loud ticking noise it makes me want to turn my phone on silent. But rather than complaining and hating it, I want to make it better. like the older LG Quick messaging phones (I dont remember which model) had a full qwerty keyboard and every different button you pressed made a soft simple little note from a keyboard or piano or something. so whenever one of my friends was typing a text it sounded amusing listening to little songs that can be made by simple random letters being pressed.
So I would just like to know if anyone knows where these files are located, because finding them is the hardest part. making the noise would be nothing at all, it'd just take a few hours. just pull up a sound board and make different notes for each letter. Anyone have any ideas??

UPDATE:
ok so if you get root explorer (obviously needs to be rooted) and go to
/system/media/audio/ui
you will see the ".ogg" sound files. you can replace any of those, as long as you name them the same file names as the stock ones. I replaced mine with the linda voice
link --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962442
it also has an ".ogg" sound file for these:
"keypress standard" (regualr letters)
"keypress spacebar"
"keypress delete"
and "keypress return" I think was the last one (probably the enter button on keyboard)
I'm actually about to go home and play with those and see what I can make.
I still want to be able to do a different tone for each letter but have to look further into that. so far this is ok

Man I've done that 3 times now using the .ogg keyboard sounds I pulled from a different ROM I really wanted, but no matter how many times I delete the originals then rename mine exactly it stays the same! I'm losing hope and patience.

Hey, at least your sounds didn't go entirely silent like mine did! Ugh. I'm stuck here.

Hey I know this is an old post but did you ever resolve this issue? I'm stuck with silent sounds as well, can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Sorry, I missed your response! I couldn't figure out how to get custom sounds going so I just reverted to the stock files. It's aggravating that LineageOS keyboard sounds are so horrible, lol, but oh, well.

Oh hey I actually got this working on my end lol. I was trying to replace the system sounds using solid explorer and it wasn't working, but I switched to fx manager and it worked.

I searched to see if anyone has made this already so this will come in handy.
SHOULD WORK ON ALL VARIANTS FOR THE NOTE 2
What does this mod do?
It disables the voice input method.
All Google apps still work. Voice search still works as well nothing to worry about.
Does this remove any apps?
No! All it does is disable the voice input
Will it "break" any apps?
No
This mod changes the XML files for ime and input prefences in Velvet.apk under system/app

Finally, i have problem when using Light Flow App, when i open any folder, My note says: The folder is opened, same when close it
My solution was disable google speak engine and samsung TTS from application manager.
Will try ur mod now, thx.
Edit : flashed and voice still working !!

If this mod doesn't work then go to accessibility And turn talk back off (if it is on) turn talk back on then back off. I had this issue. It's just a glitch.

Are you still having problems? What causes it and what exactly happens
EDIT: the problem is with The light flow app itself. For the time being disable accessibility and it will go away. I'll find a way to mod the sounds in accessibility so you won't have issues

Any ideas if this will work on other Samsung devices? I'm on a Galaxy Ace 2, will it cause the universe to implode if I try it? This could be just what I'm looking for.

Adding a new dialer problem

Have to say overall using the OP6 Oxygen OS is like stepping back in time. Standard things you think would be available aren't. The settings are a mess and all over the place as if they just kept putting things anywhere as they added them piecemeal.
I'm trying to add a new dialer as the "stock" one is total crap and have tried numerous ones. It looks like it's almost a first edition of Contacts + , where they grabbed the code and dumbed it down.
Trying to use the Asus Contacts Dialer, it doesn't give a popup when clicking on either Sim button when placing a call as it does see the dual sim. However when I go into the settings, many things are missing in regards to settings. When I click on call settings I get this error message that displays on the screen:
" No installed activity available to handle selected action"
What does this mean? I tried searching for it but got no answers. I'm thinking part of the problem is the way they've done the coding in relation to the call settings that it is not in the correct place so other dialers can't find it. Anyway to get this working so I can disable or uninstall or stock dialer? I really don't want to have to root this phone.
I'm trying to live with this phone for a bit, It's nice I have wifi calling and Volte but that is where the excitement ends. Well when the network actually stays connected and I'm not using airplane mode to reconnect or taking out the sims.

Go to settings
Search for default app

Select Asus Dialer as default app
Should solve your problem.

Already tried that, didn't work. I gave it every permission I possibly could as well.

I had similar problem, this used to work.
May, other members help you out.

Agree the dialer is crap so I unlocked my phone just to put on magisk google dialer and contacts which is WAY better.

What the most likely problem is that the Asus Dialer app has some built in dependencies for zen. You would have to debug the apk. To find what they are and then find a way to add them to oos without jacking anything else up .
Waay above my skill set

I'll look into that thanks, to see if there is something else to add. Never had that issue when I added it to other devices though. But one never knows.
I'm still leaning towards the fact that their software is just a horrid mess because I've had problems with several other dialers as well.

Question New Z Flip 3 Owner - Little things I can't get to work

I had given up on trying to make all of Androids little features work as they should. Now that I have picked up the Z Flip 3 I have a new found desire to figure out how to use the phone and the features that are giving me issues.
Issue 1 - The screen saver when charging is not working. I've tried my dock, and direct power plug in. No go on any of the screen savers- they simply do not show up. How can I fix or trouble shoot?
2- Please tell me it's possible to re-map the side power button to open the Google assistant. I spend a couple hours on this today and had no success. I tried downloading the assistant app so I could open it, but Samsung has hidden it in the pop up list of apps that can substitute the Bixby option. Same question - how to make it work.
3- I really want nothing to do with the Samsung apps. Is there any way to disable or otherwise get rid of them? Without rooting. Is rooting even possible? I don't really want to start with that again, but will if it comes to it I suppose.
I am trying not to waste days figuring out how to make the phone mine. It seems like everything I want, I can't make happen. So frustrating. Thanks for listening and thanks in advance for any help/guidance/resources etc.
Edited to add - this is a Google FI Samsung phone. I purchased it from Google.

Thanks! I tried it out, then purchased the button remapper app. It's working great!
I'll sit down and do the other suggestion also. Wish I didn't have to remove things and hope it doesn't break others in the process.
Thx again

Only disable the apps you can see an icon for in the launcher and those you are absolutely sure accompany them (ie. Stuff plainly named Bixby) and you'll be fine.

Got it! Thank you!! Will update when I've had the time to mess with it.
On another note- I can't for the life of me get the screen saver when charging to work. It's not that I'm dying to use that feature out of necessity, but it's driving me nuts that such a simple task is, simply not working. lol. I need to let it go.
