Naturally Remap Bixby button on Countries without Bixby Voice. - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello!
I am in Russia and my girlfriend have an S8+. Triying to remap her Bixby button to my sorprise i realized Bixby voice is not installed or avaible in here. So there were no options to remap Bixby button naturaly nor something related in advance features. I was pretty upset.
The fix i found is to go to apkmirror, donwload the latest apk for bixby voice and install it manually. Bixby voice was not working anyway but to my surprise in settings, advance options, now the bixby key remap was there and i was able to remap the key to the gcam .apk.

BIXBY UPDATE: Turn of Bixby key

You get the option at the top to turn off the Bixby key, seemingly only the first time you open Bixby after updating

Bixby update is available in Galaxy App store

Thanks for the heads up! I disabled it, restarted and the bixby button doesn't do anything now! Perfect!
Package disable all bixby stuff. Disabling the button will continue having bixpy running in the background and using ram
Hope the developers of bxactions etc get the button remap to work with bixby button work boxy off, still like to have access to my camera through the button.

I've completely disabled bixby (single press & long press). The only way I can remind myself of this horrendous voice assistant is by resetting my default home launcher (it is Nova atm) and getting to bixby through the TouchWiz launcher.
Seems most people can only disable single press. What you have to do is go into bixby, hit settings, and disable bixby voice first. THEN disable bixby home launcher. Voila, your bixby button does nothing at all now.
Hope someone finds a way to make use of this button that is literally doing nothing now.
EDIT: ENABLE FLAWLESS GOOGLE ASSISTANT
After disabling bixby voice and bixby home, download bxactions and follow the steps in-app to enable "Control Mode". You'll need a PC to run a command, but the steps are super easy. Google assistant is flawless when pressing bixby button now. Couldn't be happier.
How are you guys turning off Bixby?? Is it done inside the app or grin settings?? I got it updated

Thanks I got it figured out. You've got to go thru the Bixby setup and it'll be up at the top. I've since got bx actions going in control mode and have that button mapped for Google assistant

I think it only works for Google assistant if I disable bixby voice (control mode) and try use bixby button for Camera I get a pop up saying I need to enable Bixby voice... hope developers can tweak things so all bixby functions can be disabled but the button can still be used for a range of actions (like camera).
Guess I need control mode... Because after disabling the button, nothing works
Cool, now i can turn this bixby thing off. Its annoying when accidentally pressed

How to remap Google assistant from long press Home button?

Hi Guys
I want to configure google assistant to double press home button. In xposed there is an option to change it, but it can only a link to the google app which then requires a press on mic button to activate google assistant. Is there a way to remap 'google assistant ready to listen' by this key combo?
I have rooted phone with Magisk and Xposed. Thanks
Found it in Buttons in settings and remapped to long press menu key.

I've had the same problem, use an older Button Mapper. Cancel Automatic Updates from Play Store.
I use the version on the link. (0.58)
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/flar2...er-remap-your-keys-0-58-android-apk-download/
Tysm!! it works!
In updated versions, enable Alternative assistant in More options. It will open Bixby voice instead of Google assistant.

(Guide) How to use button mapper for bixby voice July 2018

Swipe right on the homescreen to update bixby voice.
Then
Download Button Mapper 0.4.0 apk its the only version that works for bixby voice.
Newer versions lack support for bixby voice only google assistant.
You can still use google assistant by holding down the home key.
Seems to fix my bug in the s8 and s9 ports.
If your using sac23's rom there is an option for bixby voice in the key configuration.

How to use bixby voice on khongloi rom

hey guys i found a way to use bixby voice on khongloi rom. This only triggers the assistant when you press the button. Voice wakeup does not work
Firstly setup bixby on your device and then download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.in_so.navigation.buttonmapper
Give it accessibility permission and then choose any button you want to use for bixby. I'm using volume down long press. Then select the action as assistant, then as soon as you long press the volume down button you'll get a popup which will ask you which app you want to use. So select bixby voice and you're done
not working . working stop...
