[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pooperscooper:
Thanks for the reply.

I don't think I have a nandroid backup. I did copy the old backup file of Generic.kl file back and still hasnt given me back the old functions.

What do you suggest? Go back to the old original file or do I edit to what what you have done?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
Well if you go back to the original file and reboot (and that was the only file you touched) then it should go back to the stock settings.

Glad it works. I didn't put up zips of the files that I found, just in case the contents vary by carrier. It seemed such an easy text edit, which carries less risk, so I thought I'd give the method rather than an upload. But feel free to try either.

What would I need to change to keep the Volume buttons as they are but change the Pause button to skip/next track?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
Not tried it, but I guess you'd need to use the values from the line that controls the middle button:

key 226 HEADSETHOOK WAKE

And swap with the media-next codes from:

key 163 MEDIA_NEXT WAKE

Keep a backup of the original file before you start though, which you can revert to if things go wrong. And see http://source.android.com/tech/input/key-layout-files.html for more details.

One thing I had to after I made the change was to un-install and re-install the headset button controller app. (As I wanted to use it also!)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
Ahm, i guess no one noticed it, but the skip track functionality is already built in (at least with stock headphones, working on ics [not sure if from the beginning, but at least at later builds] and jb stock).

Just double press the play button and you skip the track.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC-Gunge:
But with this fix and the combination of Headset Button Controller App I now have:

One click top button for next track

Double click top button for volume up 1 notch

One click middle button for pause and play

double click middle button to launch my music app

triple click middle button to launch audio book app

One click bottom button for prev track

double click bottom button for volume down 1 notch

Perfect! ;)

Thanks for this info guys. I was editing all the OTHER .kl files in that folder. I wasn't editing the generic.kl file.....was scratching my head for a little while trying to get it to work. Oh and BTW, that Button Key Remapper app posted up in XDA apps section does not work for the S3. I kept trying it....no success. Even their special modded version wouldn't work. This simple .kl edit worked great though.. THANKS

You're welcome. It's such a simple job once you work out which file to mod (as long as you're rooted anyway). I'm surprised no-one has made a little patcher program to be honest.

headset button controller app

Hi, I'm a noob and my s3 is 4.1.1 OTA updated, no root.

I loved this app (headset button control), but it's permissions got me scared. Is it just because I'm a noob and I don't understand, or there is really a reason to be scared of so many permissions for such an app? I know one can block apps permissions (or something like that) if one's rooted, but I can't root my phone. I've rooted my last one xperia mini pro, but my s3 has an issue with charging the battery and I may have to return it for service (bought this month!). So, I can't root it now.

Thank you for any help. I apologize if this is hijacking a thread, but since the name of the thread is the name of the app, I thought I could ask it here. I apologize in advance if I'm doing something wrong.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthartic Rain:
Hi guys, I have a question. I have the original headset that comes with the S3. I want to fast rewind a song with long-pressing in the call button, Right now if I long-press the call button it opens Google search voice, how can remove the google search voice command to apply fast rewind?

I can't figure it out. Trying in the generic.kl file, Headset button controller app, but nothing.

I have a problem that I haven't been able to sort:

My headset button controls the stock music app, no matter what! If I have spotify or my podcast app open and playing, and I press the headset button, it will mute spotify/podcast and start playing from the stock-music-app. I have a-jays one+ with the app installed, still won't cut it.

I have tried killing the stock-app, restarting phone, clearing memory and standard permissions. Nothing resolves the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated, I will probably cause an accident trying to change track in spotify while riding my bike in 2 inches of snow.

[Android Themes] Dynamo!:
I am currently looking into theming for android and have discovered GO Luancher EX's easy theme maker.

I am considering purchasing a google developer account to distribute my themes but I don't want to waste the money if people are not going to like my style of theming. So I thought I would post my first theme here and let you guys tell me what you think.

Any suggestions or criticisms are welcome.

If all goes well here then I'll hopefully be getting my developer account shortly.
[Android Themes] gkaipale:
It is quite good, but if you want many downloads, you have to theme everyhing, including main menu on the bottom of the main screen. And replace icons for most of the standard apps.

Here is one of mine: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.theme.MyPurple#?t=W10.

Furthermore, if you make paid themes, keep in mind that even if the theme is very good, only 10% of the people that would have downloaded for free will pay for it.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] pepuhz:
I don't know if this has been posted before (I've searched and didn't find anything) but I"m not able to get my full 16GB on my Razr VZW. Is this due to bloating? If so how do I get to the full 16GB???

If this is double posted I apologize!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iBolski:
It's a total of 16gb of memory within the RAZR, but it's partitioned across the internal SD card, internal memory, ROM memory, and for the OS as well. You also have to remember that formatted memory will be less due to how the file system allocates it's blocks.

For my phone, this is what I got:

634MB System ROM (where system apps are stored)

3.22GB Internal Memory (where user apps and data are stored)

8.59GB Internal SD Card (more storage for pictures, etc)

The remaining is probably allocated to the OS itself.

So, you have 16gb of internal memory, but about 11.81GB is available for storage by the user. You can't use all 16gb of memory because the phone needs that for the system ROM and OS.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Pouic:
If my memory is correct the Razr 16Gb internal storage is partitionned like this :

8Gb : user space

4Gb : apps

3Gb : OS + cache + webtop

Thanks for the quick responses. Anyway to get rid of the motocast/vzw popup that comes up whenever i plug my phone in? its pretty annoying
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iBolski:
In the bottom right of your PC screen, you should see an icon for this. It might be hidden, but usually Windows will show it immediately after connecting your phone. You can right click on it and tell it what to do when you connect your phone. One option is to not do anything.

It defaults to launching the Motocast video. I immediately told it to do nothing.

Please try again, then install gapps manually.

if you have any gapp that is not work well, move the APK file from DATA/APP to SYSTEM/APP folder and change the permissions of group and other to read only and then restart the device.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adidasfreak:
Thanks for replying so quickly.

I have tried your recommendation but again there's a problem. I seem to have a problem connecting to "adb server". And I do not have a custom Recovery or a rooted Andoid. The batch executable (root-me-cmd) will not run finish. It always stops at adb server.

Also, in Disk Manager, under Other Devices, there's the Android one, but it doesnt update. The computer cannot find where to download the drivers. And in Disk Manager, Android is always under Other Devices and attempts to manually on the device but it also had failed.

I am really at a loss. I am not sure how I can resolve the problems with my phone.

I thought of flashing back the original 2.3.5 GingerBread, but that requires a recovery image.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobire:
Hi,

I think you need a correct driver,

Try to install driver with this software: http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...=toDownloadFile&flay=software&softid=Mzk1MzA=

then run "root-me.cmd" again.

I hope you will succeed this time.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adidasfreak:
Hi kobire. Thanks for informing. I have gotten the Android USB drivers.

Good news and bad news: Using the batch script, I have rooted my Huawei Chinese build to V100R001CHNC00B923SP03. I see a Superuser app in the app drawer. To make that work, I had to install HiSuite to get the adb server settled properly.

1. I am unable to access custom recovery, i.e. "Install from zip"

2. In pink screen mode, my computer do not see any Image for recovery mounted. As a result I do not know how to install other ROMs or even roll back the ROM. I cannot progress any further. I would really like Install from zip, get back my gapps!

Attached is a screenshot of my problem in Device Manager. I have manually added them from Legacy Devices. Automatic or manual search for drivers wouldnt help much now.

My Honor /edit is confirmed be rooted though. So does that help?

/edit:

I have installed Root Explorer. I am able to navigate to the /.cust_backup folder, and have backed up the contents. I was thinking whether I could copy over the recovery image through this Root Explorer app without bricking the phone? i.e. "8. A few disks should be mounted, search for the one that has an "image" folder with an recovery.img and a boot.img inside it. rename the recovery.img to recovery-bak.img (or simular) and copy recovery-u8860-en.img there and rename it to recovery.img"

3. Will I get a custom recovery in that case? I will not have entered pink screen mode though. Any comments?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobire:
Congratulations! You succeed to get root!

Unfortunately, in this version(B923) there is no access to change the recovery by the pink screen.

But the good news, you can manually install google account, gmail, google talk

It will work perfectly.

The only problem is google play. You must move the "com.android.vending.apk" to folder: system/app. and change the permissions of "group" and "other" in the properties to read only and then restart the device. then google play will work perfectly.

Recommended to move the other "com.google ... APK" into this folder, but it is not required.

i recommend using ES File Explorer

I have attached pictures.

I hope I helped you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adidasfreak:
Thank you very much for your reply! Thank you also for the effort u put into uploading the pictures and posting detailed instructions on how to get Gapps working!

I have found out what is my problem. The problem lies h the phone bootloader being locked and unable to allow me access into \image folder. Thus I couldn't install CWM and Custom ROMs.

After days of trying to root my phone using the various methods shared by forumers here, I have finally rooted my phone, installed Custom Recovery, and my MIUI Custom ROM.

Would like to share the workaround. It is very simple, as pointed out by Singapore forums on the Honor. B919 (I confirm) is the only Build that allows Custom Recovery.
