[DEV REQUEST] Pause Button - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[DEV REQUEST] Pause Button
Hi developers ,
I am really thankful for all your contributions that you've made for all of us , I am coming with a new request to see if this is possible ,
I've got mod which helps me to make the Volume rocker button on note to work as previous and next tracks changer when screen is off ,
If this is the case i am looking forward to check with you guys if its possible that when the screen is off can we make the power button for long press as Play Pause ?

This should be possible but power button could actually switch off the phone as well.

Hey, i dont know much about those things, but i dont think menu button would be a good choice since it is a capacitive button... I'd rather use the home button, cause theres no further use on longpressing it on the lockscreen?
peace

what if I want a button (or a soft button) for "rotate" if the button is pressed ?

what if I want a button (or a soft button) for "rotate" if the button is pressed ?
any tools or configuration can do that ?
Not sure what "retate" means but if you are looking for button remapping look up AE Button Plus.

how come you reply so fast ... I have just corrected the typo ..
what I mean is a soft key button on screen that only if I need a rotate screen then I press that button.
Hmm. Don't know of any soft-button way to do it... but if you enable screen rotation in HD Tweak or Advanced Config you can remap a hard-button through the Button settings to do it...

SETTING>PERSONAL>BUTTONS
when i hold the answer key the screen flicks between 0 and 270 degrees very nicely

You can use this solution. Cabs at the end of the post, giving you the option to use either the left or right softkey on the home page to rotate.

[Request]Widget on the screen to call power button menu

I was wondering if there is any widget/application or someone could make the application to call power button menu instead of pressing the button each time.
I already searched the market and xda but seems there is nothing
I'm looking for the exact same thing and wasn't able to find it too!
Would be very nice, if someone could code a widget!

If there would be one,it should be nice.

Hi Taha,
Try QuickBoot ...or extended power control widgets

Thanks for your attention, there are some widgets on the market which can do reboot and recovery or even download mode. but it was just an idea to create a new widget to popup power menu, I think that would not be so difficult for programmers as they are only going to call a phone function.

Disable home button from opening recent apps?

Hey all,
I disabled the lockscreen on my arc because I found that with my case I don't have any issues with pocket dials and etc.
However now to turn on my screen I prefer to press the home button (rather then the unlock button on top). But whenever I press this button I find 9 times out of 10 the screen turns on, has lag for 1-5 seconds, then the recent apps drawer opens up. It does this even if I just tap the home button when its off. It seems when the phone is sleeping it thinks my quick press of the home button is a long press (causing the drawer to open up)
Is there any way to disable the recent apps from popping up? Or possible change the button that opens it? I am using Apex launcher and I don't see this as an option in there, I would like to stick with the same launcher if I can avoid changing.
Thanks everyone.
Edit: Sorry mods, meant to post this in Q & A
Anyone have any ideas? I am not finding much by searching.

im not sure try to look at /SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT/pm8058-keypad.kl (dont know if the name is that also for u) but this will change all option for a specif key. look other file around there in tht folder. i never did im sorry
There is also the Generic.kl file with all buttons and their function, the 102 is the home if im not wrong and the 139 the menu. Try to look if u find something like a line where it say that the 102 open the recent app and give it to someone. i dont have idea if this work xD

Hey there, sorry it took me a bit to get back to you.
So I went and tried this to no avail. Searched almost every file/folder (keyword search) for home, hold, and recent. It came up with nothing that looked any different then the other stuff. I am sort of thinking I am out of luck here.
Unless there is a way to edit my CPU settings to make it boot faster from sleep (thus preventing it from lagging/thinking I am holding the button?)

Remap multitask to menu?

Any way to do this without root on the Note 4? I believe HTC offers this option on their M7 and M8 phones, so I really hope Samsung did the same since they switched it.
yes please! I believe it can be done but uncertain without decompiling the app doing some recoding and then recompile the results into a .apk file.
Hold the button down....it's menu with a long press of the multitasking button

haha me too i want menu one touch menu and recent long press of home button
I didn't realize the back button still did menu with a long-press. Glad to have learned that rather than having to search the 4 corners of the screen to see where the menu in whatever app is hidden.
When root is found, it should be a simple thing to flip the functionality of it right?
Also, anyone else wish there was a flashlight quick toggle in the notification tray?

Never had an issue, just practice getting used to the timing
If you want your screenshot on the desktop (and you use Windows), just try my adbgrab.exe (in the sig).
Code:
C:\>adbgrab.exe shot.png

Here is a great article on it... using the palm swipe looks like it will solve your problem. Check out scroll capture also, that is cool.

Is there a 3-finger swipe for screenshots available in Samsung cause I'm new to this brand?
Oh, you can also:

No, they have the palm swipe only as far as I know, although you have to activate it in settings first, for it to work... you can try an app to create a macro, (great feedback in the comments ,but one them says the phone needs to be rooted which may or may not be) based on whatever you want as shown in this video.... not English, in Hindi, but you can make out the details and process from the visuals.
If all else fails, the power and volume rocker low buttons pressed the same time will take a screen shot by default.

Where i can find long press on one hand ?
just my 2 cents; i use good lock and the module navstar. i've put in 2 extra icons in the nav bar (originally has 3: back, home and apps). the other 2 to the left side that have been added are power off and screenshot.

Men thank so much for this tips
From my end, I use the button mapper and set up volume down long press as screenshot. I tried with one hand gestures and somehow, I prefer physical button. Would love to use bixby routine instead but couldn't find a way to screenshot.
Tap tap is my go to. Simply double tap the back of the phone and bam!
Lol I always turn my phone sideways so I can do the volume down & power button press two handed!
