[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arknailed7754:
Why on these threads the opposition to rooting. I understand the stance the menus annoying. Takes screen. Its beyond me why these users are even in xda its a development site. Not tech support. 90% of xda is about modifying and making things better. Some chap said some rubbish like ooo I won't get that then.

So he's willing to forget everything else about the phone due to a 3 dot menu..which if he rooted sorts the issue

Not overly bothered just an opinion. Save your flames
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
It's just a personal preference in regards to rooting and a lot of people are worried it would affect their warranty in case something happened to their phone and also you should not need to root your phone to fix an issue which was fixed but then HTC took it away so the chances are they will add it back in the near future.

And xda is also about app development as well which is why I come here as I have brought a fair few apps from people here in various development threads so I think xda caters for all types of users and not just the ones who want to root.

There's no need for a kernel source just to remap a button. You just need to edit the keychars or keylayout files on the /system partition.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonstatt:
On the HTC One X, it was removable in the pre-release firmware. Then the first releases of the One X firmwares you could NOT remove the 3 dots. I know because I had one when they first came out and it frustrated me big time. When did the One X gain the ability to remove the 3 dots?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
A quick google around reveals a 2.17 firmware released around August 2012 and a friend of mine had a One X and he sold it because the 3 dot menu got on his nerves and looks like htc are going to make the same mistake again.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadFromWales85:
For apps that do not follow Android 4.x and have no menu key built into the app. Older phones had a capacitive menu key which you'd press to bring up the menu. The One has no menu key, so it displays a black bar along the bottom of any apps that need it, with just three dots on it.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmitr:
So I've always wondered while reading threads like this.

The One X,S, and V had hardware buttons that mimicked the Galaxy nexus's on screen keys.

The One got rid of the multi task button (home twice.....fine) the Nexus 4 has the same three onscreen keys (back, home, multitask)

How does the nexus deal with apps like facebook where lazy devs have yet to implement holo design guides? My son is ordering an N4 while I'm getting the One (unless Sammy releases a metal S4 today.....doubtful!) so I can probably answer my own question soon enough.

I only see these threads on HTC forums.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eggcake:
Devices with OnScreen buttons display a small menu button next to the Multitask button when in legacy mode.

Apparently, even after over a year, it damages HTC to follow Googles guidelines. A Menu button should not exist anymore on a hardware layout.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beno619:
Im hoping the S4 will also have to get rid of the menu button or else Google will be showing major nias to Samsung.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattman83:
It damages HTC after a year that some app devs still can't get their stuff together and implement a proper menu button in their apps.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sprinttouch666:
No! facepalm. Nexus devices don't have a menu button for a reason, Google is trying to phase it out, and I'm glad HTC is supporting that. App Developers need to update their apps.

But anyway, there is already a mod (in out Dev forms) to fix this and add the double tap option back. I'm sure chefs will include it in their roms.

With regards to your inquiry, kindly note that for now We have no confirmation whether will be possible to customize the virtual keys or not, because as you know, the device is still not released for sales and is still in testing period.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jme369:
The settings menu button that appears at the bottom of the screen when the app you're using doesn't have a menu button elsewhere. It happens because the HTC One only has a back and home button.

There's no way to change the mapping of the buttons yet on stock, you either have to use a custom rom or wait for HTC to add the option.

What gets me is that relatively big apps still haven't properly implemented the design language. Facebook and XDA spring to mind. If they would pull their finger out and implement a proper in-app menu button then we wouldn't see the three dot bar.

None of those apps will work without messing with the Android OS to circumvent the restriction on recording calls. They have made it very hard to get around. All these lame apps end up doing is turning on your speaker and trying to record from the ambient sound, which is really really crappy

Anyone figure this out. I found a few kernel hacks on xda, but the threads are all a year or two old and the links no longer point to existing download locations.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] itsfredo:
I once had a good call recording addon when I used Jedi mindtrick ROM. I don't think you need the ROM to do it because it was from the Xposed Framework app. I activated and installed the app then scrolled down the downloads list and was able to find a phone recorder. When I installed it and reset the phone, it added an option to record phone calls to the phone menu. It saved the files to the SD card and they sound legit.

You probably know more about this stuff. Hope it helps!

Hey all,

long time android user here. recently bought a used HTC 8x Windows Phone 8 to test out and use as a VOIP device. When I first saw the phone I knew there was something off about it, it booted with the windows 8 "not for resale" in red, and had white number engraved on the top left front face of the phone. The phone is a Verizon branded device but it is unlocked to work on any carrier (as the previous owner had it on TMobile).

Here is the specific information:

OS version: 8.0.9900.568

Firmware: 1532.18.09202.605

Boot-loader Version: 0.92153218.02(153904)

Since this is a test/developer device (or so I think) it is not letting me update the software. I wanted to know if there is any flash or something I can do to upgrade to the newest software? And if anyone has more information on these types of devices. I cannot find information anywhere online
