Solution to using Camera button to launch an app

Okay, as it turns out, I did some more digging and was able to answer my own question, so I wanted to post a quick update as to how I accomplished it. It may or may not be the BEST way, and it wasn't free - I wound up spending $0.99 for the app, but I think it was well worth it.

The first thing I tried doing was editing the /SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT/s3c-keypad.kl file to reassign the camera key (Key 31) to Voice_Input, which at least got me part of the way there, but of course that was still only letting me launch voice search, rather than my preferred app, Speaktoit Assistant.

After a bit more digging and searching I found an app that did exactly what I wanted -- it's called QuickLaunch and can be found on Android Market. It's not freeware - it costs a whopping $0.99, but it allows you to assign the Home, Search, and Camera buttons to launch an app directly, as well as allow you launch an app from a status bar notification icon.

So that's how I've accomplished it. Anyone else who may have found another way please feel free to post your method(s) as well.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] orange808:
The only downside is that Touchkey has to launch every time you hit a button, but it will work.
[HTC Wildfire S] emokid09:
ive had a go at making a mod which includes:

battery icon

other icons

status bar (with glowing affect)

sliding tab lock screen (not ring)

ICS windows animation

fonts

boot animation (guessing s-off only)

will upload pics when i find out how to :)

hope people can help make it better as its my first attempt.

everything worked for me except boot animation (im not s-off :( )

update: changed font to something more readable
[HTC Wildfire S] emokid09:
make sure you remember to back up your rom before you install mod :)

and remember be nice ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] Thrawed:
These fonts are horrible.
[HTC Wildfire S] emokid09:
aprt from fonts, what do you think for first attempt, plus i can change fonts to something else as they are doing my head in now lol
[HTC Wildfire S] BigChillin:
I think this is in the wrong section...
[HTC Wildfire S] Fikus011:
Nevermind BigC,its an honest mistake ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] emokid09:
i thought this section was for mods/roms?

woops my mistake :o
[HTC Wildfire S] iPriDvI:
Found a bug... pm'd u

After installing this mod..

1.The time duration in call doesn't work..shows the term "select word" instead of time duration..

2.In Mx Player..the vido. lenght is not displayed..shows the term "select word"

if u cud fix these...the mod would be excellent..
[HTC Wildfire S] thehacka1:
I like your mod. People might be able to use UOT too but I'm glad you tried. I think the mod is great. :D

Don't forget to smash that thanks button down since its being a big meanie!

What is this?

The following is the stock AT&T RUU for the HTC One X. This will be valuable if you're trying to restore your device from a soft-brick.​

Download

RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.73.502​

Thanks to our anonymous source!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
So is this also considered an un-root return to stock. How to return for warranty repairs?

Can HTC detect root/ return to stock
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sk806:
Yes. there is code in misc partition that lets HTC know that the phone has been unlocked then relocked. however, it should be possible to edit misc partition to look like nothing happened...in fact, there are ways of unlocking bootloader without HTCDEV...

Once we are up and running with jcase's bootloader, we can get more into this...

EDIT - BTW, after extracting rom.zip from this, build.prop still says 1.73.502.1, not 1.73.502.2. Strange...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikelebz:
Will flashing this remove the tampered with banner on the bootloader?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] txmade:
I am new to this, how do you reflash the rom if you get a soft brick. I am a Iphone convert. I used to jail break my iphone from time to time. I would like to root to get rid of bloatware.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] IpodLover77:
im really hoping that once the bootloader unlocking tool is out, the devs at xda will create a way where we can COMPLETELY revert to stock and relock everything so we can get warranty support. I hope it won't come down to the decision of either staying with sense or unlocking/rooting and permanently losing your warranty.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dedzombie:
I flashed this RUU and the **TAMPERED** banner went away.

I got a little over-emo with Titanium Backup and screwed my device. Just rebooting into recovery and wiping data took care of it for me. Might try that before diving into a RUU/SBF. They're kinda dangerous if you're not careful! :o

OTAs

Does this root method keep you from recieving any OTAs? If so is there any way Devs could incorporate any OTA into a flashable file?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sjmoreno:
Has anyone noticed the super slow file transfer speeds one this phone? I just tried to copy a movie over to the phone that is about a gigabyte in size and on my other phones it would usually take a few minutes at most but this phone has been saying "calculating" for several minutes now without any data transfer happening yet.

I have the phone on disk drive mode so I would have thought this wouldn't be doing anything weird like converting the video file on the fly during transfer or anything. It should simply be copying the file over but it doesn't look like it's happening.

This should be a simple feature but it's not working for me at all.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig0r:
Works fine for me. Much faster data transfers than my DHD.

Of course, I've been moving files via a Mac, maybe there's an issue with Windows + OneX file transfers? Hopefully someone else can confirm.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tyie101:
Speeds have been average for me when compared to the E4GT. These 2 phone are still a faster transfer then my old nexus S. I would say the speed to transfer is roughly 5 min for a 700 mb film. I don't know if thats fast or slow really though.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] King Shady:
About 12 ish minutes for 6gb of music. Not bad at all
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] designgears:
might want to try a usb port on the back of your computer, or a different cable.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sjmoreno:
HTC USB Cable

Are you guys reporting fast file transfers (or at least average speed file transfers) using the usb cable that came with the phone or another micro usb cable? This morning when I tried to copy that movie file I was using the micro usb cable that came with my Moto phone (which I thought would be fully compatible) but got those really slow speeds which seemed like it wasn't transferring at all.

My HTC One X micro usb cable was left at the office so I didn't have it with me at the house so I couldn't try it. Now I am at work I guess I can try it with another large file but do not have the movie file I was trying to copy this morning with me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NorrRadd:
I notice a change iin file transfer times on my HTC Sensation since upgrading to ICS.

I even tried using TeraCopy, but the time are just as abysmally slow - it definitely wasn't this slow before.

Am thinking to try taking the SD out of the phone and copying directly to that to see if there is any difference.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NorrRadd:
Yep, that worked, copied to the direct to the card via a card reader very quickly.

I did however choose to fix the bad sectors when that dialog came up, not sure if that helped.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] focussoft:
when i use total commander under windows it reports between 20 and 30 Mb/s

That is way faster then i had using my Samsung microsd in my card reader
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pepemosca:
Why the cable could slow down the transfer?

I just bought two of this cables: http://dx.com/p/designer-s-flexible-usb-charging-data-cable-for-htc-174cm-length-73860

And with one of these I sometimes get connection to the computer and with the other connects... but really slow, les than 1Mbit/sec.

Could it be a bad soldering? Could it be that the cable is flat? Could it be that some endpoint is not connected inside the cable?

The original HTC cable is flat: http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=196200&phone=196001

I must add that if I use the OEM microUSB-USB cable works perfect.

Hello, i recently bought a samsung 16gb class 10. I'm using custom rom on my sensation xe so i want to know how to make things work..in the past i have done something similar with desire..i partition the new sd..copy paste the old sd and then flash from recovery the backup...if that is the correct method i want to know how to partition my sd for roms? (ext2 fat32 etc) and how much gb in each partition? thank you :)
[HTC One X] pingu01:
Hi - I'm in the UK and have bought two One X's from Amazon. The first is fine, the second isn't (it was bought in the Amazon Warehouse and is pre-owned but "as-new").

1 The first phone found the 1.28 update immediately on setup after connecting to wi-fi. The second won't update, even after doing a manual check and is still on 1.26.401.2. From what I've read if the phone is "unbranded"/not originally locked to any provider it should be ready for the update. How do I check this?

2 The LED on the second is tiny - it's the size of the end of a pin whereas the other phone has a much bigger, more visible light.

Thanks in advance for any questions. I have searched for similar problems but came up with nothing (sorry if I missed answers that are already posted on here or elsewhere)
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
1. Flash the 1.29 RUU - job done!

2. Can't say I've noticed this but you could be right
[HTC One X] pingu01:
Thanks, but I'm hoping not to flash this device. Is there any was of checking if the phone is tied to a provider or why it doesn't want to update to 1.28?
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
If it's running x.xx.401.x then it's an unbranded handset so flashing the RUU won't affect anything with regards to warranty as it's the official ROM file. OK, it means wiping the phone but at least you're up-to-date!
[HTC One X] pingu01:
Ok, thanks again. I was really hoping to figure out what the problem is here so I understand how the updating works - if you say I do infact have an unbranded handset, I don't understand why it won't update. Does the update server go down occupationally or does it just mean I have an issue with the handset itself?

Flashed via TWRP Touch Recovery.

CleanROM DE 1.3

Stock Adreno Driver

Score:6331

CleanROM DE 1.3

Antutu

No OC

Updated Adreno Driver

Score:6143

Take it for what it's worth. Force 2D rendering is not enabled on my phone, perhaps there would be a bigger difference there, don't really care enough to try at this point, lol
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
i just flashed the ruu an hour ago the only thing i had on my phone was my apps updated. and i was rooted.

first picture: without adreno update and 2d rendering UNCHECKED. score 2736

second picture: without adreno update and 2d redering CHECKED score 2872

third picture: WITH adreno update and 2d rendering UNCHECKED score 2216

forth picture: WITH adreno update and 2d rendering CHECKED score 2783

my conclusion is turn on rendering but dont install ADRENO UPDATE :/
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
1. Benchmarks mean little next to actual experience

2. Score from just the 2D section in multiple runs with each driver would've been much better, all those other sections can and will vary and affect the overall score

3. Benchmarks mean little next to actual experience ;)
[HTC Rezound] mr2324jgf:
I recognize you're trying to be funny...

Just.... for the record... the post in the OP state "significant boost" in scores when in reality, there aren't.

That's all I was saying. Just trying to contribute to the community

;-)
[HTC Rezound] chupajr:
I guess the question is whether it feels any different. The post also states that UI rendering seems smoother, but of course this is impossible to truly measure.
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
believe me it felt alot smoother with youtube and stuff like that with the 2d rendering on without the adreno update.

i am now tryin to figure out how to uninstall the update??? maybe someone can help?

i wonder if i just redo the ruu?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Restore your back up...
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
so it got worse when i installed his patch so i made my own with the latest drivers from the adreno site linked here https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobi...phics-optimization-adreno/tools-and-resources

this helps my phone out alot and im not sure if the latest leak did have these installed.. im not sure how to check but it works killer.

let me kno your results. thank you.
[HTC Rezound] Christopher3712:
But there are more questions: Is it possible the updated drivers carry the workload on less power consumption? If there isn't a measurable difference, does it FEEL any different?

I suppose I needed an excuse to nandroid today anyway. I'll probably just try it out.
[HTC Rezound] EclipseX:
The adreno update is for battery saver. Consumes less
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
here is my score after installed the patch i made with the newest drivers instead of gjcamp's patch.

and im seeing a huge increase actually all around actually.

see picture
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
could you verify where you got that information from?
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I already tested this on BAMF 2.1. Anything updated past that has these already in place.

Actually, it does help. That is one thing I did notice.
[HTC Rezound] dg4prez:
do you have 2d rendering turned on? are you using the stock kernel? what release?
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
hmm i guess i didnt notice sense i only updated his patch to see my scores, maybe since the scores were lower to save battery all around?

well i made the patch to go back so ill flash his and see how battery goes. but sense this leak is already battery conservant i might like the speed and feel without his adreno update. we will see.

---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

stock kernel no cpu apps.... and 2d redering is on sorry for not stating that. also on the latest ics leak firmware.

im loving the feel of my phone right now. best its ever been to be honest.
[HTC Rezound] kieva1252:
i highly doubt this will work for the rezound as the updated driver is for the s2 series of chips while the rezound uses the msm 8660 which is s3 the difference being the s2 running off arm7 architecture and the s3 running off arm 8. here is a link to qualcomms current cpu line and the series and architecture: qualcomm.com/chipsets/snapdragon
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
thats what i was thinking, he stated that it will work with all armv7 chips. hmm

so i went to the website and made a patch back... because i didnt make a backup.
[HTC Rezound] Christopher3712:
ARM8?

I think you're a little confused. The Rezound's MSM8660 chip is ARMv7.

Efficiency increased from 5223 to 6402. I'm not mad about that at all.
[HTC Rezound] mr2324jgf:
this gave me a bump to 6555
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
so it helped am i correct?

my patch signicantly helped also, but not to a score that high lol. im on the stock leak. which rom you using and what kernel. im also on stock kernel.

this also makes me wonder, was the drivers i put in the patch the ones that ics came with? or did it update?
[HTC Rezound] :
i should re-note, that was in antutu... quadrant is at 2652 with no forced 2D rendering, just now with 2D it is up to only 2774.

I'm on CleanROM DE 1.4 now with new kernel, radios etc
[HTC Rezound] dg4prez:
with 2d on i get 2746. the 2d score is way up there, though - 809 from 275.

getting a 6608 in antutu with DE 1.4 and these drivers. didn't test with just DE 1.4, but it's up from 5668 in DE 1.3 with the new kernel.
[HTC Rezound] Argent36:
just flash this in recovery of choice then? I'll give it a try
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
yes. let me kno how it works.

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

also may i note that when doing a quadrant score reset your phone before you do the next, and when toggling the force 2d rendering it helps to reset before running test. this is from my experience.
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
Newer GL...

Apparently this is an even newer GL (218) that fixes Skype; however, Instagram won't work. Unfortunately the zip I posted didn't work for our device. :(
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
may i ask where you got this from?
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
It's all over the Sensation thread, as well as many others.

[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
thats what i thought, i read a little on that forum, i will test and see.. if this is the latest why isnt it on the adreno page?? just curious.. i have the latest on the page and it works amazing.
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
That's what I was trying to figure out, and I think it's from Sense 4.0. But a lot of people reported successful results on the Sensation thread, which is pretty much like the Rezound. I guess it comes down to choice... Instagram or Skype? Haha
[HTC Rezound] con247:
They are placebos
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
hmm supposely the 218 opengl is a port from the htc one x, very interesting. tryin now. will report back, ive been using quadrant when i know i shouldnt because this is gpu testing no anything else really. but oh well :)
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
I think the biggest test is to see if it really does fix Skype. No green.
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
its not letting me install the zip. how did you install it? plz tell me you tried before posting on here.
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
Unfortunately I did not, that's why I said "Apparently" in my sentence, because if I did I would have shared my personal results. I don't get why it doesn't work, can you extract it make a zip or something for it to work on our device? Kind of how you did earlier?
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
i would recommend to not post stuff like this unless people has tested and show it works. helps people in the long run. i will look it up and see what i can do with it but i think the patch i made up to use is the best we have right now since its from the site itsself.
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
I removed the zip, and I based it on the success everyone else was sharing. Sorry for that (Even though it did no harm).
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
im not tryin to be rude at all, its just you really shouldnt of uploaded it and just gave us the link. either way this is the patch stated in the beginning of this thread just renamed i believe, i would still recommend the one i put up to anyone.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I will say it again.
[HTC Rezound] retepdgp:
Can't argue with you, Con. Everything you say has some sort of truth behind it.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
They might help a tiny bit in one area or something or improve benchmark scores but why would you want a generic driver? If they magically increased performance HTC wouldn't take the time to compile their own.
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
couldnt agree more, i made that patch because i didnt make a backup and didnt feel like re-ruuing my phone again, and ever since i flashed the ones from the site, it feels like my phone is slicker. just saying. i am curious what version came with the leak instead of the patch i posted. and what the real difference is.
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Actually, I thank you for calling me out on that, really do appreciate it because I try to be helpful around here too. Guess between sleepiness during post and looking around some rude XDA threads for a while, a bad attitude started rubbing off onto me. Sorry. :)

May I make an educated guess here since I'm not running an ICS ROM to check this directly? Is it that the OP drivers are the generic Qualcomm ICS drivers from March, the 213 GL version... And HTC already optimized the current drivers to Rezound or updated to new version? Curious which version devs have cooked in their ROMs.

Looks as though there are version 218 OpenGL drivers floating around too, backported from the One S.

213 GL drivers have green Skype screen, support Instagram filters.

218 GL drivers fix Skype, but Instagram filters break (sounds like Instagram needs compatability update)
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Sounds like you shouldn't be using instagram lol
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Rofl tell that to my girl's face. Oh wait, you can't, Skype doesn't work haha. :p
[HTC Rezound] sogone209:
pretty much. im not sure how to look up what gl im on.. i think i need a opengl viewer? and i updated my adreno with the latest from the website so im not sure what came with the leaked ics firmware. hopefully someone can let me kno what gl version it is. i made a patch for the 218gl but havent tried it yet.
[HTC Rezound] killahrey:
I flashed your patch and I really am noticing a massive increase in smoothness, I'm on newts s4 Rom, and its running great on the stock kernel. Thanks man.
