Since I never use the search button, I thought it would be nice to remap it to something useful.

So after some tinkering I came up with it.

This should work on all custom roms, from Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich and from AOSP to Sense.

If a mod doesn't work, make a post with your rom and rom version (eg. rom: Android Revolution HD, version: 6.6.5)

Comments and feedback are appriciated!

If you like it, don't forget to thank me. Donations ,though not necessary, are appreciated.

I am not responsible for anything that happens to your Sensation eg. bricking!
Aka if you flash this mod, you are the one responsible!

Would be great if you can remap to open camera ..
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
IMHO the Gingerbread style multitasking is less bloated/quicker then ICS style multitasking. If you like I can make a zip with the ICS style.

Wasn't aware of it. Meh, now I feel like I wasted my time :p

I will look into that since it should work.

I'll fix something tonight ;)

Will look into that. Now where to look thanks to blablah's searching skills :p
[HTC Sensation] niccuany:
+1 for ics style multitasking.
[HTC Sensation] Gramzz:
Thank You for Your hard work, search key for recent app is very useful

+1 for ISC style multitasking please this will be perfect, could You do it for us?
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
looks awesome. the difference between this and the existing mod, is that this one is so much simpler. who the hell wants to mess wit all that code? will definitely give the ics recent apps mod a try when you release it. so just to clarify, it doesnt require a long press of the search button does it? its instant right? thanks
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
Found the culprit, some more files that need to be changed.

Will make a special version for ICEvolution.
[HTC Sensation] hdjx20:
screens?
[HTC Sensation] lowrider262:
Can you make one for the search button to shut off the screen? Just regular press not long press
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
Yup, it's instant

Will add a few when I am behind a pc

Done, will upload when I have acces to a pc.

Also, since most buttons have double functions (when you long press them), might be functional to mod those to. What do you guys think?
[HTC Sensation] yasin12:
Ye thats a great idea!
[HTC Sensation] DanOMac:
This is a great mod looking 4ward 2the screen off version maybe press 4camera long press 4screen off
[HTC Sensation] niccuany:
Yes!! If you could make one so single press did ics multitask, and longpress opened camera that would be awesome! This is great work though.
[HTC Sensation] karlhenrik:
Can i take a picture just by pressing the search button in camera that would be cool. But I also want the search button to be a search button if you understand me?
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
I understand but I don't think it could be done. Because the capacitive buttons have precedence above "app" buttons.

Will look into it if I have time.
[HTC Sensation] weiloon1234:
i always edit the search button to lockscreen,and sweep2wake for unlock,long time never press the power button....:D
[HTC Sensation] Poignant:
I agree I think its a great idea to mod those too! maybe you can make a mod to set long search press to apm that way the power button never has to be used.:)
[HTC Sensation] voltiger:
not working on my OrDroid ROM (7.1.3) as well :-(

Does the "CAMERA" mapping link to the app or is it a system wide link? If it's to the app then I would guess it's not working because I don't use the ROM in english ?!?

How about short press for recent apps, long press for camera?

[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
I know this is the exact opposite of what you're intending with this, but is it possible to map search back to search?

My search button currently does nothing. I believe the ROM Cleaner script I used after flashing ARHD deleted something necessary and now hitting search is like hitting nothing.

I can't seem to PM you so I'll just have to hope you see this.

You're one of the few Bell Sensation users on this forum; have you noticed any speed drops when you're running a custom ICS rom on bell's network?

A few of us had chatted (running ARHD) and we suspect the speeds are slower running custom roms because they're not running something that bell has optimized for us. another user gets 8000 up and under 100 ping using stock bell OTA but 2000 down and 400+ ping when running ARHD.

I get something similar when using speedtest while on a custom rom. How about you?

Just a quick update, didn't have time last week due to RL kicking my ass. Also had to send my Sensation to the shop for repairs since I had dust behind the screen for the 2nd time. Should be able to get the ball rolling again today (GMT +1 timezone) but I need some testers. PM me if you are interested.

You can lock and turn the screen off with sweep2wake too.

Simply sweep from search to home and voila.. screen turned off.

I never touched my power button unless i want to reboot or power my device off. ;)
[HTC Sensation] soulantrax:
Menu = Recent Apps

Can you remap the menu button to open the recent apps menu? I prefer the action bar than using the menu button because it gives that galaxy nexus feel , I would really Aprecciate it ! :)

Doest work with desire z sense 2.1 (virtuous sense 2.0) :(

I wish u can make this mod for my rom,I have been searching everywhere for this mod but all were cm9.. was hoping for the ics recent app on search key press..
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
If I have the time I will make it especially for you ;)

That's because this mod is for the Sensation. If I have the time I will make a version for you.

OP updated,

Still working on the ICS style recent app menu due to APK Tool not compiling android.policy.jar. At the moment I don't have the time to figure it out.

Also, I still don't have my Sensation back. However I will probably have it back before the end of the week :)

Edit: Finally it compiled without errors. Added it to the OP. Note that it is untested!

GB style or ICS style?

GB style gives ICS style recent apps in OS and CM9 so try that one ;)

Hope you guys made a nandroid. I will remove the link when behind a PC.
[HTC Sensation] uw748:
Cool, that worked like a charm! Thanks
[HTC Sensation] mulletcutter:
So GB recent apps work on ics roms?

GB means Gingerbread style multitasking. It works on ICS roms as wel.

Well, flashing the GB recent apps mod on opensensation enables ICS style.

Go to settings, about phone, system updates and select "check for updates". Keep pressing that until you get the update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Why don't you just root??? It's much better. And you CANT brick a Nexus phone.

The easiest and best tool is the Wug's Galaxy Nexus Toolkit.

This tool is one click, and takes ten minutes to root with ease.

If you root, you can upgrade to the 4.0.4. And lemme tell you, the features on 4.0.4 when rooted are insane. It's like 4.2-4.3 if Google ever includes these neat features.

Would like to root if your not rooted??? I promise you that you safe from any problems and experience is not required. And if you do root, I recommend you use the Franco.Kernel and use AOKP builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If someone doesn't see the benefits (or cost/benefit analysis) of rooting or ROMing their device, then they shouldn't do it.

Not to mention that posts like yours are confusing. You don't have to root to update to 4.0.4 (just unlock the bootloader and flash the update), and rooting and adding a custom ROM are two different things as well (although custom ROMs include root privileges)...

The bottom line is that if people root before they are ready to because someone told them it was a good idea, then they are increasing their chances that something will go wrong and they'll regret it. It's best to let them choose to do it on their own.

My phone is a Bell Galaxy note i717, I recently flashed to the OnlyOne Beta 2.

Phones work perfectly but it is displaying 4G at the signal bar. does 4G = LTE? or idoes 4G = HSPDA+ for Bell?

So basically I want it to stay away from LTE.

I have already done the *#2263# trick to lock it to WCDMA atm, does this lock it away from LTE? Thanks.

I am worried about the battery life taking a hit.

tried search but I can't really find anything.

Once you have Odin

To do so

The file "GIO_v0.1.ops"

You will find in the package of Odin

You put the file you downloaded md5

How do you see "PASS!" disconnect and if appears

"Close serial port and wait until rebooting" a disconnect, and wait until the phone turns on, of course, disconnect the cable.

It says Samsung on the phone remove the battery and enter the Recovery Menu

select "wipe"

select reboot

Is it fine if it says 1 (COM10) ? and also its keeps on showing the boot animations over over... wont go further and on odin it says pass. should i keep on waiting or is somthing wrong? is it bricked?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Darkshado:
1 (COM10) is simply to indicate the serial port number assigned to your phone by Windows and the Samsung USB driver in Odin.

Your phone is boot looping, some might consider this a soft brick. My best guess is that you previously installed a ROM that formatted your /data and /cache partitions from the stock RFS format to ext4 instead. The stock 5660M ROM doesn't support ext4.

Reboot in the stock recovery, either with "adb reboot recovery" or by using the home and power keys simultaneously.

From there, wipe user data and cache, or something similar I don't recall the exact wording, but I do remember they were two separate commands.

Reboot, should work now. Use ddms (part of the Android SDK) to see what's going on under the hood if you feel like it.

I take it computers are a relatively new thing for you to ask how to unzip files. My best advice: make very regular backups and read instructions carefully. Losing data is not cool. Losing someone else's data is worse. (I'm guessing you're on the family computer here...)

5/22/2012 Update -

Sorry for the delay, tried not to die from pneumonia last week after a relapse. :) I will start answering general questions again today and forwarding CSR events to the Service Team. Good news is that we have hired a full time employee to assist our Tablet owners in the Android centric forums. His name is Tien Phan and he is available here under the user name Asus_USA. He is part of our new Customer Loyalty Group and will be taking over forum coverage and assisting our valued customers. I will still be around, especially to handle technical problems and coordinate with Engineering until Tien is completely up to speed. However, as always, if you run into a problem that is not solved by our Service Group please feel free to contact me.

MOD EDIT: This is an information thread for the official ASUS community managers.

As the time showed us these threads tend to become a huge mess of complaing, offtopic, flaming and trolling.

That's why we try something new here:

This thread remains open, so Asus can update it

However, any post not made by Gary Key or Asus_USA will be deleted.

You can complain about the Prime in all the other complain threads.

Lets hope it works better this way.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary Key:
6/19/2012 Update

.28 Firmware - Please clear your browser and system cache after performing the FOTA plus a full shutdown and reboot. It might clear up a few issues as the browser code and thread priority has changed.

.28.5 Beta - I am going to open up this beta to a few additional owners.

1. Must be on a US release.

2. Must not be unlocked.

3. Must not leak the build and we need feedback.

4. Let me know if you are interested.

Side Note - Traveling this week so responses will be slow.

Please remember to include a valid email address and unit serial number in any PM sent to me or it might not be answered. It is hard to tell spammers from actual people in need without an email address and serial number.

Other Subjects -

1. Still working on getting NVFlash released for unlocked users but this is not our decision since we do not own the software.
