Hello my friends, well after searching and searching I didn't find anything like this, so I decided to share this mod with you ;),

This Mod makes the Menu key (The one placed at the right of the home key) to work as the musltitask key, just like on the nexus phone, so if you press it instead of getting the Options menu, you'll get the Recent apps Menu, this mod also adds the on-screen menu button like in the Nexus, so you'll still be able to see the options menu :D Here are some demostrative caps and a video:

Youtube video Here

(Sorry for the video quality, I recorded it with my old Sony C510)

The MOD Includes:

Tested only on SK17/Mini Pro, It should work on Mini/Live/Active also

Warning /i\

BUG:

For the "Non Optimized for ICS apps", you won't be able to open the Optoins Menu :(

Ohh well, I think that I have a problem there. As you said, HW buttons cant be modified so I think that in non-optimized ICS apps you won't be able to open the menu options (Since all the apps I use on my mini have the Options button on screen, I hadn't think about this problem).. Any suggestion?

If you have not any problem with that (Like me), you can continue...

Installation:

+Download this file.

+Flash it on CMW recovery (Don't forget to make a backup first!!!)

Credits to:

iiandskater For the On screen button/Notification and volume layouts/action bar mods. (See Post)

ShedoSurashu For telling me how to change the key Layouts ;)

And well, me :)

Thanks a lot! I hope you like it, if you enjoy this mod don't forget to press "Thanks" And if you have any suggestion/question/problem with the mod you can always post a comment.

bootloop in miui rom :p
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] danyboy008:
If you still interested, I could modify your files, Just upload your framework-res and a file found in: system/usr/keylayout- cyttsp_key.kl and I will try :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] andrasandhi:
Bootloop on sk17i mate... :confused:

Is that happen cause i modified on systemUI before?

Ok,im trying to clean install (yes, clean install : downgrade to GB .58, push local.prop, flash ICS then root), but still bootloop
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Theonewithideas:
How does it add the menu button in apps prior to Android 4.0 ?

On Galaxy Nexus, when the app is still in prior-ICS version, it adds fourth virtual button - "options" . But since hardware buttons can't be moved on Mini, how do you open options for prior-ICS apps?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] danyboy008:
Too bad man :(, please tell me your ROM's name and please please upload your files framework-res and a file found in: system/usr/keylayout- cyttsp_key.kl, so I can check what is different from mines and for modify yours ;)

Ohh well, I think that I have a problem there. As you said, HW buttons cant be modified so I think that in non-optimized ICS apps you won't be able to open the menu options (Since all the apps I use on my mini have the Options button on screen, I hadn't think about this problem).. Any suggestion?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] PLinga:
I tried to install this mod on an xperia ray running CM9 RC2 and it resulted in a bootloop. I had made a backup so was able to recover. I've extracted the framework-res but was unable to find the "cyttsp_key.kl" file in "system/usr/keylayout" folder. Perhaps that's why the mod isn't working? Is there another key file I should look for?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xdevilium:
Please make it available for JB, Here's the ROM's framework-res.apk, no need to edit the key layout file, I already did...

But please only make the recent apps screen, no more mods if you can. Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] PLinga:
Have you tried using Button Savior or LMT Launcher to get a menu button for those legacy apps?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mrahmanda:
still interesting , but wont have any bugs here :)

i have some idea !

1. why dont you use menu key as menu button ? and use hold home button for recent apps ?

BUT ! you can still add the on-screen menu button like in the Nexus ?

2. or can you add menu button on status bar ? (change recent apps button key beside settings key)

example

just ide :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ljcrisanto:
Will it work on stock ICS ROM for Xperia Mini Pro? I really need this mod for multi-tasking :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mrahmanda:
absolutely work buddy !
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ljcrisanto:
Have you tried and confirmed this mod?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mrahmanda:
yes i had tried this . my only problem just how to show menu button when on non-ics based apps
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lightdesiny:
works perfect in my xperia mini, for the non optimized applications for ics is possible make the mod execute option menu on long press the key?

sorry for my bad english
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ljcrisanto:
Yeah, you're right. That's why I don't want to try this mod at this time. Is it possible to show menu button for just long-press?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] danyboy008:
Well, I'm on using the CyanogenTimeScape ROM, you have to change the keys behaviour on that file (cyttsp_key.kl), so if you don´t have that file in that directory, it won´t work. You should send me your framework-res file and your "Keylayout" folder in a .zip file, so I can check what can I do ;)

You mean to only enable the menu button on apps? I will, just hold on :)

1.- Sure, I will :)

2.- I really don´t know how to do that, I´m sorry but on my phone I don´t have that button on the notification bar :(

I will try and see if that works good. Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ljcrisanto:
Thanks! I will wait for that! :)

[G Tablet General] tvm777:
Its possible to add another 2 speaker to the tablet?

Space isnt a problem, i mean, its possible? did anyone tryed?

As all speakers works with + and -

its just easy to cut wires and split for another 2 speakers more

obviusly will consume more battery and of course will need more space

but its possible without ruining my tablet¿

(speakers pulled from old hp dv6 laptop)
[G Tablet General] mike240se:
I would read about impedance and what happens when you connect speakers in paraellel as you are likely to over work the hardware trying this.
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
these speaker i have are 4ohm independance but theres no info about gtablet speakers :S

do you think if i connect in paralellel i will blow out they? (four speaker)
[G Tablet General] Linuxslate:
mike240se is correct.

Not only that, but those 4 ohm speakers are going to be the worst you could add.

I never looked at the imp. of the speakers in the G-Tab, but these small speakers are usually higher impedance.

If you attach 2 additional 4 ohm speakers, you will mostly hear only them, that is if it does not damage the output circuitry.

Get a nice set of Bluetooth, or wired amplified speakers, it will sound much better, it is much easier, and there is much less chance of damaging your G-Tab.
[G Tablet General] Yamagushi:
I'm guessing you want to do this to hear better...? Just download one of the million volume boosters? I use Volume+ the paid one, its great.
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
yeah louder
[G Tablet General] Yamagushi:
Yea just buy Volume+, its like 2 bucks. I set it to full boost at 20(Doubles the volume), usually have my tablet just over halfway and everything is nice and loud.
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
scends anuantit

this app doesnt damage your speakers?
[G Tablet General] Yamagushi:
If you play something that's already really loud with everything maxed out, maybe. If you use common sense, then no lol. Doubling it makes half volume into full volume and beyond that is above 100%. I usually use it around 130%, but there are times with something like netflix were its so quiet I max it out to 200%. Its harmless. Any issues will be very audable. If its too loud, youll hear it crackling(badly, a small amount of distortion is normal) and such. Realistically I don't think you'll have an issue, just go by ear, if its loud enough to hurt the speakers, itll sound like crap and youll know right away.
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
thanks, ill download this app then :)
[G Tablet General] Yamagushi:
No problem
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
i tryed volume+, but seems doesnt work

volume isnt increasing

any suggestion?
[G Tablet General] redeyedjedi:
In response to both of your posts, flash the teamdrh JB rom, it is really stable for an alpha, and for some reason, it is really LOUD!!!
[G Tablet General] tvm777:
I have already downloaded Jb teamdrh rom, but since i dont have full root access, titanium backup cannot backup anything

its there any other option to backup my applications?

i cant access to system even mounting usb trough cwm
[G Tablet General] redeyedjedi:
try appmonster. But, i dunno if it will work. What I do know is if you use applanet, the downloaded apks are in the applanet folder. If you use google play store, then set your rom to backup your account and automatically restore, then after you flash a new rom, you can just restore your apps from online?? I think this is how it works, but I have never let google into my life that much!!

***a quick google search reveals that appmonster needs no root! so try it.

[HTC One V] globatron:
We have been informed by a couple of people that people on the HTC One V have been getting stuck in QHSUSB_DLOAD as a result of pressing volume up and power, as well as

some people

ending up in this state spontaneously.

Please not this is not fix for devices that have ended up in this state as a result of damage to a crtitical partition or component caused by inappropriate flashing, experimentation or device defect. That said, there is no risk in attempting the process on such a device, if there is such an issue it will fail to resurect the device.

This is not an unbricker, just a utility to exit from download mode if there are no real issues with the device.

FAQ

Q: Will there be a windows version?

A: No

Q: Will there be a mac version?

A: No

Q: Why do you use IRC for support instead of the forums?

A1: We have hundereds of users of our tools daily, it would be impossible for us to monitor all the related threads for support requests.

A2: IRC is more interactive, what could take hours to resolve in forum posts can be dealt with in minutes on IRC.
[HTC One V] shubhamchamaria:
Nice Stuff :)
[HTC One V] sashapetrik:
?

does it work? If so, it's just super! has anyone actually tried this method at home?
[HTC One V] shubhamchamaria:
Well someone would have to brick it to try it...
[HTC One V] GuestK00293:
I have a brick and I tried by seeking help on IRC. I does not work. I am not a n00b and I understand that this takes more iterations. I did something more by looking into source code in gobi loader. Our device shows up as Gobi modem (qualcomm). The tool in this thread sends a byte sequence to request QDL reset and I wanted to know other byte sequences. The gobi loader source code is open and one can find a few other sequences. I modified the gobi-loader to skip the loading part and just send the end of download/finish sequence. Even that did not work. I am taking it to HTC service and see if they can fix it.

I had updated to 2.0.9 and the hboot was updated from 15 to 18 as part of official update. The phone suffered reboots during calls and I restored my CWM backup of modaco Ir2.1 with my kernel.

*The phone that was working fine (with modaco Ir2.1 vanilla and my own kernel built by merging upto v3.0.38) got into the brick state when I did a reboot to clean up RAM.

Overall, I am quite tired of having a truly fragile phone.
[HTC One V] daxiaamu:
tried，failed，i got“ QDL reset” but my phone didnt do anything
[HTC One V] globatron:
It does in fact work perfectly for what it is intended to do. As the OP says, this is

not

an unbricker. It is designed only to help where a phone is stuck in QDL mode with no other underlying problems.
[HTC One V] Lloir:
guys guys this is NOT 100% QHSUSB_DLOAD can happen when some of the blocks have become corrupt on your device...which IS NOT save-able...so if this DOES NOT work it's likely you have corrupt blocks and NEEDS htc to repair for you
[HTC One V] dragonslayer198:
My girlfriends One V just went into this mode qhsusb_dload and i pressed both volume buttons and power to reboot same as i do on my sensation somtimes and it wouldnt come back on so i tryed this but it did not work. the phones perfectly working before i pressed power button and volume buttons this is stock device not bootloader unlocked not rooted nothing just plain stock any1 help us ?? NEEDS htc to repair for you
[HTC One V] globatron:
Probably, spontaneous entry into download mode is almost always caused by a scenario such as that Lloir outlined, or a hardware fault. This is currently not recoverable without sending to device to HTC for repair.
[HTC One V] simonsimons34:
Guys an entry into download mode that is not sporadic is all that you can recover. I know for a fact holding up key and power corrupts a few partitions on primou. Appears to be firmware of the device to me as the vm one I have did the same thing on power up with up key. I had to get HTC to repair that. But bricking something like hboot then recovering also sticks you in this mode sometimes. That's the case I tested in and it worked great
[HTC One V] _Freezer_:
Fix For One S ?

How i can fix QHSUSB_DLOAD for HTC One S ?
[HTC One V] simonsimons34:
If its the same issue as the one v there's no harm in trying it
[HTC One V] mohammad0089:
so if i use this unbricker, then my issue will be solved? ( pressing volume up + power botton ) wont brick my device anymore? :) currently my phone is working already; i havnt tested that yet ( i just hold power + volume up for a short time )
[HTC One V] simonsimons34:
They finally did a radio update. This no longer creates a situation where PBL needs the reset command sent. I've gathered that from how emmc recovery sends a reset command. Of which its source is on github
[HTC One V] ManishByatroy:
tried on my one V which is stuck on QDL mode. Doesn't do anything.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirt:
everything I've seen about these go back to it being an issue with the emergency broadcast system, it something to that effect. they are not rom related, & I've seen reports of them on several different phones, not just the ns4g.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] irish.iolar:
Hey every1, I was wondering if there was a working stable way to root the VZW s3... I know a lot of devs have been working on it and I hear there coming out with an update to fix it, but for right now is there a way? I have sprint but the service isn't good where I live so I'd like to get Vrzn and be able to flash cm10, any input much appreciated

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ExodusC:
Rooting and the bootloader issue have virtually nothing to do with one another. Here's a copy/paste of something I wrote:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] irish.iolar:
Thanks for the info, but what can't you do with the Verizon version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] irish.iolar:
And if you can still root and flash roms from Verizon s3, why does it say like cyanogenmod is coming out for everything but Verizon bc it has a locked bootloader?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nopi45:
Look at the development forms it will answer yourquestions and show you where the VZW development is going.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kthung:
In short a locked bootloader will prevent flashing custom kernel, hence why CM10 is not officially supported for VZW yet. It is possible to flash other ROMs and there are already a few different versions of the stock rom that have been stripped or debloated. Some people have also reported a workaround for flashing custom kernels but its a little more tedious. As far as rooting goes, you can do everything else that rooting entails (TB, tethering, etc.) just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ExodusC:
What do you mean "reported?" Read my above post- we have an effective workaround for flashing custom kernels and ROMs.

All it requires is flashing a custom recovery (just like you'd do with any phone) and then simply flashing the custom ROM (just like you'd do with any phone).

The auto-kexec and custom kernel are built right into the .zip package.

Yes, it's not perfect, but assuming the CyanogenMod team is okay with the workaround, I don't see why we wouldn't get official support.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] juancaperez2000:
thats right im even running CM10 (dealing with the regular issues before that rom hit RC status, but i love cyanogen so i can live with that;), official could hit us soon

With this app, its possible to mount NTFS drives, but your phone need to be rooted, so it can do his wable-mable-magic-trick :D

If you had or have a MAC, maybe you will remember a famous and reliable solution that do the same thing: Paragon NFTS for Mac. Of course, the android version is developed by the same team, so i trust them, and best of all: its FREE \o/

I don't know. :P I have a Xperia S. But anyway, are you rooted? The app is for rooted devices only. It starts in a console screen and stays like that until you plug the NTFS drive, so the screen changes, and you can mount it (and set what "folder" do you want to mount it) :)
