You're absolutely correct. I'll update the link in my post ... and then try to remember to double check what I am actually posting :eek:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
I thought so, but I'm not switching back to find out. Either way, I'm styling with your version.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
Anyone who used the mirror app in prior EVO phones, I just found this...

Remember the incredibly useful Mirror app that first made an appearance on the HTC EVO 3D last year, disappeared in a subsequent OTA update, and has never returned to the EVO 3D, or any subsequent HTC device?

In case you’re not familiar with it, the app uses your phone’s front-facing camera to act as a mirror; it’s a convenient way to check your hair, make sure nothing is stuck between your teeth, or just fulfill your narcissistic tendencies.

Well, apparently the code for the Mirror app is still present in HTC’s latest version of Sense that graces the HTC EVO 4G LTE. There’s still no link in the app drawer or easy way to access the app, but with a little bit of work, you can create a shortcut on your homescreen for quick access on the go. You don’t even need to be rooted!

First, download Quickshortcutmaker – our favorite app for accessing lots of hidden stuff on the EVO, or any other Android device. Then, under activities, search for Mirror. Select the option that appears (there should only be one), go through the on-screen steps to create a shortcut (you can name it anything you want, and even change the icon), and that’s it –you’re set.

Whenever you need a mirror on the go, just fire up the app, and check yourself out!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JerryGNYC:
Mirror / Tasker

And if you are a Tasker user, you can create a task to launch Mirror (it shows when you press the "All" button for app launch selection), and then create a shortcut to the task. Works great too.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] myxmastrmike:
First, v2.0 is ROCKIN!

Super fast and smooth so far.

I also found myself really liking the voice search mapped to the camera button half-press. Never used voice commands before, but it being super easy to access made me use it more.

But, I didnt like the recent apps button being menu, so I flashed the stock button mapping, and sadly it took the voice search mapped to the camera button away :(

Any way to get JUST the remapped camera button back?

(Yes, I know, another buttom map request lol!)

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
Hey Mikey if you adding stuff you should also add the HTC Notes App.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I can't make sense of your request because IMO, it does nothing but remove functionality. Why would you want the stock buttons, making both a long press on home and the right button be recent apps? Then you've got two ways to access recent apps and no way to access menu, which brings back the ugly three button nav bar too. That said, if you really want to do that, you can map the stock buttons and then follow the instructions in the previous reply: the one where you change "FOCUS" to "SEARCH" in the keyboard layout file.

mean rom for the lte is geting close to being like the mean rom for the 3d.. BEST ROM hands down!!!!! hella fast & battery life is beast!!! i swear my phone never goes under 50% i cant kill my battery!!!! thanks for doin what u do mikey!! :victory::good::highfive:;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Thank you. One less mod I have to flash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] myxmastrmike:
First off, the only function i'd use out of the 5 choices you get when you hit the menu button is 'Settings'... and if I need to do that, all I need to do is pull down the notification bar and settings is right there (plus 75% of the time what I need to mess with is in quick settings in that same pulldown) so having 'Menu' mapped there is 100% waste of a button for me.

When I first got my LTE, I thougth like you, that it was redundant having a seperate button have the same function of long-press home. But after using the phone, I love that button. I toggle between recent apps A LOT, and being able to give a quick button tap is FAR quicker and easier than having to long-press one....

Now, to touch on the mapping the stock button on my own in the keyboard layout file. Will changing "FOCUS" to SEARCH" give me voice search, or will it just give me the traditional search where I will still have to click the microphone button to enable voice search? I am looking to regain the function of long half-press of the camera button=voice search...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fgcchevy:
Do you understand he does this on his free time for his personal use, and he chooses to share it with everyone in this public forum? To ask him to make this button do this, and another button do something else is a little crazy? Can you imagine him doing this for everyone who has a special request? This is not even my rom, and I get tired of people complaining about this that or the other. This is a good solid rom, and if you wish to make certain buttons do certain things, I suggest to read on how to make your own rom, and see how that goes? I'm just saying.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
So you're fine with the ugly three dot menu bar being in all your games, making your phone not be able to use the full 720p... like the bar sitting there (and having no function) in Angry Birds and other games, and even media viewers? Just so you can get to "recent apps" one second sooner? Sorry, I'm not making yet another remap flash based on that. The menu button affects far more than just pulling down the status bar to get to the main "Settings". Mapping that button to menu also removes that horrible menu bar in a lot of apps (which most of the time is sitting there with NOTHING behind it, taking up screen real estate).

As to the question above, changing "FOCUS" to "SEARCH" makes the half press button the search button, period. So yes, it operates just like a search button should: hold it and you can get the long press functions like voice search.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chong67:
The button on the right that has the multi window icon ..

Is it possible that when you press on it, all the recently opend app icon would show there? I dont like to swag thru it page by page.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tommy24:
Hey Mike,

I was wondering if you could add the htc tip calculator widget in a future build? The only one with a 4x2 widget (which in fact is the only one with a widget) has an annoying ad notification. The widget played somewhat nice on the 3.6 roms, but for some reason was transparent which I kinda liked.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
Gosh, people don't read. When the recent apps (the mult window icon) button is remapped to menu, the home button becomes recent apps when long pressed. However, doing what you asked requires a reprogramming of entire files.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] curiousGeorge:
Hey! Great work on the latest goodies. However, I'm finding the "Transparent rosie nav bar" (kind of non-existent nav bar) to be extremely jarring. Is there a way to add the background back without sacrificing 4x5?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Not at the moment, mainly because the two (4x5 and transparent nav bar) go together nicely since when the bar is visible, the text from apps that have two line text descriptions gets too close to the visible bar and it looks ugly. I may try some other options though if a good number of people want it. I personally think it looks a lot cleaner without it, but there's even an in-between: I could make a partially transparent one that might look good.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
These button requests are starting to get on MY nerves.. I can only imagine how fed up Mike is at this point:banghead:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chris4809:
Is there a way that you could include a working Google Now in your next update?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
Has been stated multiple times in the thread that Google Now is not working properly enough for Mike to include in the rom. Please try searching the thread next time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SRQ Rick:
I was wondering if you could make long press home order me a pizza and if I tap it 3 times I could use it as a remote control for my tv?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] myxmastrmike:
I.....never asked for him specifically to do it. There are plenty of other people who are far more savy than I am when it comes to these sorts of things that I am, who may do it. With the two different ROMs I used while having my Evo 4G, there was a steady set of people who were not the Dev of either ROM that were constantly making all kinds of different flashable mods and, if there was enough call for a specific request and they had the time and the ability, they would try and fill that request.

Never once did I "complain".. I have strictly praised Mikey for an amazing job. And, as I stated, this really isn't a make or break thing for me... Worst case, I flash to stock button mapping via flashable mod PROVIDED BY MIKEY, and I am perfectly happy. I just figured i'd throw out a simple request that I would like to see that maybe he or sombody else could get to if they felt like it. Nothing more.

And for you to come at me and basically scold me like a child for that simple request really speaks volumes about you as a human being :(

I dont play any games on my phone (no, i'm not kidding).. I literally had to download Angry Birds just to see the thee dot menu bar you guys are talking about. I truely hadn't noticed it in any of my day to day functions thus far.

As I said above, I never expected you specifically to just jump to my request as quick as can be. Again, in all of my past experience with different ROMs, there was essentially a dev community inside of a dev commuinity, if you will. There were folks who were constantly making different flashable mods for Rosie's and battery icons, etc etc etc... Most of them even outright saying "Any Requests? Post em, and if I can get to it, I will! :)"

I guess things aren't as friendly over here :confused:

Also, to clarify something in response to you saying "The menu button affects far more than just pulling down the status bar to get to the main "Settings" " I know that. I never said it didn't. What I SAID was that out of the options listed when you hit the menu button, the ONLY one that I would use out of all of them IS 'Settings'. I would never ever ever touch any of the other four. And, I have the ability to go to settings just as easy via the status bar pulldown.

Again, I love the ROM... you did an AMAZING job, and all I was doing was throwing out a simple request in the way I am used to from all my past experience with different Evo 4G devs. Never acted whiney like others have/can....

I really don't understand the purpose of just jumping right to being condescending.

I don't want this to go on and on... If I OFFENDED you with throwing my request out there, I am sorry.

fgcchevy (and your confirmation) ended up solving my problem for me... I changed "FOCUS" to "SEARCH" and got exactly what I wanted.

Things could have been a whole lot simpler if everything but "....change "FOCUS" to "SEARCH"..." was left out.

Reguardless, I'm not the type to be offended, so I hope you both have a great evening... and Mikey, please keep up the EXCELLENT work, the ROM is great...

Neither CPU is stuck at 384. They don't go to max just because the screen is on: that would rape the battery! Both CPU's will run at 384 until there is a task that uses enough CPU for them to ramp up the speed: that's what the "ondemand" governor is doing. If you watch the CPU's long enough, you'll see that both sit at 384 and both occasionally jump up when Android is using CPU in the background.

You are obviously only looking at what the Menu button does from the home screen..... Open up an app and use it. :D

It is also obvious that you had not read back even a few pages in this thread to see the obscene amount of back and forth over button remapping... And this is why you unknowingly stepped in the middle of it and got such "mean" response

I was able to log in and check my prepaid card in a matter of seconds. Is it just me? When I flashed 2.0 I did a full wipe as usual because I like to start with a clean slate.
