In Call mute from headset - change to short press - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I assume the answer is no without root, but just in case. Is there any way to change the way IDIOTS at Samsung made the mute works with headset?
My Nexus had short press on headset for mute and long press for hangup. This is much easier and intuitive method. I find myself constantly disconnecting from conf calls because of accidental press.

Using Smartskey to Enable Speaker On in a Call

Hi All,
Is there a way to edit Smartskey to allow using one of the hardware buttons to trigger the Speaker On/Off option?
Thanks!
Speakerphone?
It's already hardware button binded to press and hold green call button, during a call. Handy in the car when your bluetooth headset needs a charge, quick press the green button to answer, then immediately press and hold to switch to speaker.
Or do you mean use the speaker for other purposes?

Tried it on my ETEN X500 and it places the call on hold instead.
In addition I'd like to be able to switch to speakerphone whenever, meaning
When I receive a call or place a call myself.
Not sure about Eten phone, but HTC's phone (most if not all), you will have to press and *keep holding* the green button long enough (while on call). Pressing it will give you 'Call on Hold'. Alt, you try PhoneAlarm .. or PocketPhone Zen (something like that) that gives you profiles (like Nokia phone) that enables you to have the option of getting speaker phone automatically upon receiving.

[Q] mw600 - Bluetooth and voice search

Hello, I am loving the sensation and mw600 pairing, however one key function does not seem to work - pressing the 'answer' button on the headset (short press) does not activate voice search. Long press triggers the mw600 device selection, double press triggers a last number redial... When the phone is ringing, short press answers the call successfully in the headset ..... I can hold down the search button on the phone itself successfully and this will activate voice search in the headset...
The key function of activating voice search from the headset itself by pressing the answer button fails.
I have tried workarounds with limited success, such as the headset button app, eg by assigning a double press on the play button to voice search... However I can get no functionality out of the main button itself other than answer and redial... Voice search capability via this button would be truly awesome.
Has anyone experienced this issue and / or any suggestions to make voice search via mw600 button functional?
I'm currently running the EnergyROM from 22nd December and it appears to work for me, though the results were awful - it never dialed the name I said, LOL.

Wired and bluetooth headset button

Might be a weird one, but I use both a wired headset and bluetooth headset at times and I would expect the action button on both to do something. All I can get it to do at the moment is redial on a double tap.
What I am looking for is the type of things Windows Phone does. For example, it will read text messages to you, on long press of the button, it will activate voice actions so I can make a call or send a text without looking at the phone.
Is this possible?
Thanks

[Q] Any way to hack the volume button as a mute button for in call use?

Im a recent Blackberry convert and one thing I loved about it was the mute button (in the middle of the volume up and down on the bold 9900). Now that was great when Im always on conference calls for work and very easy to just hit that button to go on mute and hit it again to un-mute even with the screen locked.
Now I know the Skyrocket doesnt have one, and it sort of sucks to keep having to wake the phone to hit the mute softbutton, when you driving or doing other things you cant do it blindly.
So I was wondering since Im rooted, is there say any way to map out say the volume button that say if we hit both up and down at the same time it would initiate a mute for in call use and same again to un-mute it. That be nice to use without looking at the screen. I havent been able to find anyone who has done this or mapped out these buttons for other use.
