Is there a bxActions equivalent for the Velvet's Google Assistant button? From what I've seen in reviews it can't be remapped in the phones settings (OEMs gotta stop doing this).
Found this. I might try this later.

I'd like to remap the phone send button on my Diamond. And I don't want to use AEButton Plus or any other app. I'd like to be able to edit the registry or something. Is it possible?
bump........
no its not possible, because thats why they are called "Hard Keys"
naw, ather, your Camera and IE/GPS buttons are called Hard keys as well but can be mapped.
If i'm not mistaking it was discussed before and no-one managed to map it.
Gotcha. So then I'll assume all AEButton Plus does is wait in the background then intercept the button call before Windows receives it then issues it's own command.

This is not mine, but I found it useful as I don't care for the search button as a search button. By looking at the melfas-touchkey.kl in keylayout it seems that the keys can be remapped to whatever you want by simply changing them using a script editor like BBEdit on Mac or notepad++ on a PC. Mapping the search key to the camera, personally I'm getting a 30% failure rate, which isn't good, but some people aren't having the same problems.
Something to look into if you are interested.
Kudos to thatdudebutch over in the Fascinate forum for this, btw.
I wondered about this as well, what do you mean failure rate? You would think remapping would be cut and dry there must be a step missing?

By failure rate, I mean that about 30% of the time that I click the button the app closes automatically or fails to open. In the thread, there are several people who have the same problem, but others that don't. I'm not sure what the deal is, but when I get time I am going to do an adb logcat to see what exactly is happening.
Will this only open if I'm not using an app? I usually use the search button in the browser

Since im not a big fan of bing and the app is useless for search results in my country, i dont like the search button at all and it annoys me when I accidently press it and a useless picture with a textbox comes up... now that this problem is solved with the instant start hack its less of a big deal.
However it would be much nicer if we could map this searchbutton to a contactlist search, like when in the people hub hitting search. Having this same action on the main page. Idk if this is possible, since it is possible to tap into the browser search button, maybe it is possible to change the action for the homepage, or something else.
Anybody an idea?
would like to remap that button, too.
For now I just deleted that button, by removing websearch.exe in /windows/ . should be possible to copy another file to that location

Cool, however I have samsung and cant acces the file explorer. Do you know if there is a link to that file specified in the registry? So we could just modifie that link and see what it does.

There is something comming up which can replace the search button for something nicer, they have still some hurdles to overcome but its comming along pretty nicely i believe and it will truly add a usefull function instead of no results bing

I always ACCIDENTALLY hit the button, especially during game. So, I would like to disable.

Does disabling it on the home screen impact the button's functionality in it's other uses, such as search within Marketplace?

I have no idea, but for us the whole bing thing is useless so i never use it. Have to navigate to google.com to get the results i want to have. However to call somebody it would be really useful to have it working as people search. I dont mind if this behaviour is universal.
However i hope we will have a fully functional taskmanager soon which will override the bing app
I dont know what happened, but i am not able to find the buttom to "search" in threads.
Maybe i am blind, but I cannot find it anymore.
Please help
Just confirming search seems to be deactivated.
Also if we had search we could try to search why it has been deactivated.
But also if you click onto a username to "find all posts by..." it says it's disabled. Don't know why anyway. I am a n00b on XDA-developers
One mod said they were looking into it yesterday... no repair ETA.
The missing search function also happens to break the "participated topics" tab of the tapatalk app.
I can't believe we have all these really smart developers and they can't figure out how to get the search back. Very ironic.

More ironic is, that everyone is *****ing that nobody uses the search button, but there are really some users realizing, that it's missing.

Hi there,
today I bought a new headphone for travelling and such, a Sony MDR-ZX750BN (sorry cant link because new user). Now this model has its own volume control and also a previous, next and a play/stop buttons, which picks up calls as well (built in mic). So I searched some forums and google for a way to change button actions, as it would be pretty great to launch google now with a long press etc. But all the apps I've tried have failed to recognize the headphone. Can someone point me to a tool which does things like this? Is it very complicated? I am not an expert in deeper andriod modifications but not a beginner either. Running a Nexus 5 with L release.
Thanks in advance
