Is there any app or anyone that would like to make an app that allows me to toggle mobile network by holding the menu button? Thanks.
hold the standby button for a few seconds and choose mobile network on the popup turns it on and off
there is a control widget that allow you to do that.

Hello there!
Key Mapper is an open source key mapping application, which aims to remap any combination of your keys/buttons and provide unique features.
It is currently in beta and any feedback (positive or negative) would be greatly appreciated. Please post your thoughts in the thread or send me an email.
First things first...

What can be remapped?
There is NO GUARANTEE any of these buttons will work and this app isn't designed to control games. Your device's OEM/vendor can prevent them from being remapped.
ONLY HARDWARE buttons can be remapped.
• Volume buttons.
• Navigation buttons.
• Bluetooth/wired keyboards and mice connected to your device.
• Buttons on other connected devices should also work but there is no guarantee.
You can combine multiple keys to form a "trigger" and have as many triggers as you want for each action. You can make a key map only work on a long press and to vibrate as well.
What can’t be remapped?
• Pixel Active Edge
• OnePlus Alert Slider
• Power button
• Bixby button
Your key maps don't work if the screen is OFF.
What can I remap my keys to do?
Some actions will only work on rooted devices and specific Android versions.
• Open an app
• Open an app shortcut. This feature is very useful since you can tell another app to do something Key Mapper can’t. E.g If your launcher has a shortcut to open the app drawer, you can select that shortcut in this app and make any button open the app drawer.
• Go back
• Go home
• Open recents
• Open menu
• Expand notification drawer
• Expand quick settings
• Collapse status bar
• Toggle/enable/disable WiFi
• Toggle/enable/disable Bluetooth
• Toggle/enable/disable mobile data (ROOT only)
• Toggle/enable/disable NFC (ROOT only)
• Toggle Play/pause media
• Pause/play media
• Next/previous track
• Fast forward/rewind
• Volume up/down
• Increase/decrease a specific volume stream
• Cycle through and change the ringer mode
• Show the volume dialog
• Mute/unmute/toggle mute (Android 6.0+)
• Toggle/enable/disable auto-rotate
• Force portrait/landscape mode
• Switch between portrait and landscape mode
• Toggle/enable/disable auto-brightness
• Increase/decrease brightness
• Toggle/enable/disable flashlight (Android 6.0+)
• Take a screenshot (Android 9.0+)
• Open the Google Assistant
• Open camera
• Consume key event (Do nothing)
• Lock the device
• Move the cursor to the end
• Toggle/show/hide the keyboard
• Show the keyboard picker (ROOT only for Android 8.1+)
The Key Mapper input method needs to be selected for these to work and you can’t use a soft keyboard at the same time:
• Input a specific keycode
• Input a key
• Insert a block of text
More will be added. If you have any ideas, leave a comment or email the developer.
What other things can the app do?
• Option to show a persistent notification which can pause/resume your keymaps. It can also open the accessibility settings on the device to enable/disable the service. Rooted devices can start/stop the accessibility service without going into settings and just tap the notification.
• Automatically change the input method to the Key Mapper one and/or show the input method picker when a chosen Bluetooth device is connected and switch back to the old one when it is disconnected.
• Option to show a toast message whenever an action is performed.
• Option to log events and send them to the developer so it is easier to debug issues with the app.
Planned features
• Double tap to perform an action
• Remap media (i.e volume, headset) buttons when the screen is off. Android only allows apps to detect media buttons when the screen is off.
• Action to broadcast an intent with extras.
• Multiple profiles which can be activated and deactivated automatically when a Bluetooth device is connected or when you open an app.
• Integrate the AOSP keyboard into the Key Mapper input method so a soft keyboard can be used at the same time.

I haven't tried using buttons on a Bluetooth headset but I have tried using the buttons on a wired headset and it does work. Most buttons should work as long as they don't have a proprietary implementation in the Android skin you're using. E.g Bixby, Pixel Active Edge. XDA doesn't allow new members to put links in posts until they have posted 10 times for security reasons. Once I can, I will definitely put links in the description.

Update: I can add links on mobile completely fine. :laugh:
Nice! Will map a button to a broadcast intent be implemented?

Yeah! Great idea. I've added it to the "issues" on the GitHub repo. I have exams coming up so it will probably be a couple months.
It would be great if you could add the possibility to force close the app in use! Thanks and keep up the work!

Thanks! That's now been added to the planned features. Would you say the app is stable enough to come out of beta?
New version!
1.1.0 Beta 1
Added
Setting to change the long-press delay.
Persistent notification which can pause/resume your remaps. It can also open the accessibility settings on the device to enable/disable the service. Rooted devices can start/stop the accessibility service without going into settings and just tap the notification.
Use Material Design 2 for homescreen.
Bugs Fixed
Persistent notifications wouldn't show on boot
The app would crash if using the "open google assistant" action if the Google app wasn't installed.
Prevent the accessibility service from stopping if there is a fatal exception and show a toast when it happens.
New version!
1.1.0 Beta 2
Won't immediately crash on KitKat anymore!
Bug Fixes
Persistent IME notification wouldn't automatically show when it is enabled.
App would crash if it couldn't find the device's accessibility settings page.
Feature request:
App currently conflicts if the same button is mapped twice
Example
Short press mute = play/pause
Long press mute= open notification drawer
Result:
Long press mute results in both actions being performed.
Expected result:
Long press mute key should not activate the short press mapping
Fixes:
1. Change short press so that it ONLY activates if the button is RELEASED before the long press kicks in (should be around 500ms)
(Long press delay meaning how long the key must be held before performing the function)
Long press actions should happen if the button is NOT released within that time.
2. Multi-triggers should have a flag for "in sequence" that makes them work in sequence instead simultaneously. In sequence enabled should also Grey out / disable the long press flag on the current trigger.
And you should be able to set the same trigger twice.
Example: vol up, vol up = quick settings
To do this, you'd have to make it so that short presses are only activated if the button is released before the long press delay AND there are no other key presses within 300ms of releasing it
Great app.
Thanks

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to implement/fix these problems. They should be relatively easy to fix (hopefully). ?
New version!
1.1.0 Beta 3
Reduced the repeat delay to 5ms
Force expand the menu on the homescreen
Made the cards on the homescreen slightly more compact
Added
Flag to vibrate and an option to force vibrate for all actions
Action which just consumes the keyevent and does nothing
Action to lock the device (ROOT only for now) and an option to lock the device securely (without root).
Bug fixes
The bottom app bar on the homescreen would overlap the list items
The app would potentially crash when trying to perform a flashlight action whilst the camera is in use in another app.
Short press actions with the same trigger as a long press action would be performed with the long press action
A keymap would still have the "Show volume dialog" flag if the action is changed to a non volume related action
The app would crash if trying to show the menu on the homescreen if it is already showing.
The accessibility service status on the homescreen wouldn't change when the service is started/stopped.
Hi,
it is possible to make it work with the Mi Box S controller? Especially with the Netflix and Live buttons, I tried the back button and it works, but not those two "special" buttons. I will be very grateful

Do the other buttons also work? I'm guessing the Netflix and Live buttons don't send a standard KeyEvent which apps installed by the user can see. Xiaomi probably have some agreement with Netfix to have that button there to drive more people to Netflix which is why they don't want us changing it.

Most buttons work, home, back, left, right, up and down are recognized propperly. OK and 'all apps' (not sure if it the right name of that button) have no name in triggers but they work. If I try to record trigger with vol. up or down, it is not recorded, it just changes the volume. The mic. button is recorded with no name, but when I try to use it to trigger the action it does nothing.

Hmmm... I'll firstly add names to more buttons so they aren't blank. I'm sorry but I don't really know what to do. This behaviour sounds like the accessibility service is broken somehow and needs disabling and then enabling. This has happened to me before during development. But it is likely those buttons won't work. It's quite hit and miss when it comes to non-standard buttons/controllers unfortunately.
No success with Bixby button on S10
In settings, it allows setting the 'Air Action' for 'Hold Down Pen Button to' (aka long-pressing the S-Pen button) to any Android app.
So, I setup this Tasker Task named Mute Media Toggle and selected an Icon image for the Task.
Task: Mute Media Toggle
If Condition %MediaMute equals 1
Variable Set %MediaMute to 0
Media Volume Level 10
Else
Variable Set %MediaMute to 1
Media Volume Level 0
End If
I then exported this Task using Tasker App Factory as an app named mute.media.toggle. I then assigned the Mute Media Toggle app as the app for the Air Action for 'Hold Down Pen Button to'. Now whenever I'm in an app that uses media volume, besides using the standard S-Pen Air Gestures for volume up/down, I can now mute/unmute the Media Volume simply by long pressing the S-Pen button. I really needed to be able to mute/unmute media volume easily because the Amazon Fire app when streaming video from the Amazon Recast DVR doesn't have any volume controls at all in the app's video playback screen.
So I imagine that anything Tasker can do in a Task should be able to be set to the 'Hold Down Pen Button to' action.

I'm using the app SideSqueeze+ for extended S-Pen gestures, since Samsung's gestures are unfortunately pretty limited. It's a very useful app with great support. I recently asked about an option to change the over all volume up and down and it came with last update

Hi. I wanna ask if anyone knows a way to get back the software system buttons shortcuts customization in OOS 12.1 with rooted phone. By these shortcuts i mean for example double clicking overview button (square) for dragging the navigation bar down and other useful things that were customizable in OOS11. Now we just have long press overview for separated screen, double click overview for sliding through active apps and long press home buton (circle) for google assistant with no ability to change any of these in settings AFAIK.
