[Q] Button Mapping? - myTouch 3G, Magic General

I'm running Cm6.1 stable and very rarely use the hard search button. Is it possible to map it to open the camera app?
Basically I want to press search and open camera, then press search again and take a photo.
Is this even possible? If so, could someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance

Yep here's a guide it's for the sprint hero but it will essentially be the same thing. Really easy to do. If you want to wake the phone though you'll have to mess around with the ramdisk

That seems quite difficult, so it has to be done through windows?
Is there a simpler tutorial?
Thanks

Can anyone help me with this?

coding help

i have searched the internet for tutorials or anything that would help and could not find much at all so i figured what better place to ask than here...
i have a little experience in VB and would like to start doing some applications for my PPC. i have done a few small math programs that do simple conversions...as simple as taking input from an input box hitting a button and displaying the output in a label. i would like to learn how to manipulate files, do such things as creating a launcher and doing input functions like the moving of an image like in slide to unlock or scrolling with finger etc. so if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great whether it be a tutorial or source code or what ever.
thanks in advance and thanks to all the people that provide awesome software and help on this forum...maybe one day i can share something i make

[Q] Double flip. No need for gesture search, could it be used eleswhere?

I downloaded gesture search thinking it could be cool. It's not that great but this double flip idea is awesome. Any way to get an app that has programmable gestures? Like Apple's mouse gestures? I love those and can't help to think it would be awesome to tip my phone certain ways to open programs or answer a call or who knows.
Well upon trying this out a bit it hardly ever works so maybe this is just not feasible? Someone on here has got to have some idea if this could be done. Anyone want to give it a shot?

[Q] Quick Access

Hello All,
I don't know if it is the right place to ask, but people here might know everything about Desire HD.
If you want to secure a bit your phone, you can use the schema feature to unlock your phone.
But before this, you must have drift down the little arc at the bottom to unlock the screen.
And before that, you must have pushed the button to see the screen.
So my question is: how can we shorten this and keep some security? In other words, is it possible to bypass the drift down in order to just have to push the button before drawing the schema?
Lim.
Is there anybody who knows if this is possible or not ?
take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9550179#post9550179
there is no solution, but some discussion about possible solutions.
Thanks.
Seems that links turn around and around.
Hope that someone will be able to code some tweak for that.

[Q] Possible to Use VJBrisk to Open Alternate Start Menu Program?

Hello everyone. The title pretty much sums up my question. Basically, I would like to use VJBrisk to trigger a second program whenever the start menu is triggered. I don't know if this is possible and I haven't found anything suggesting that it is.
I am using a stock 6.5 rom on my LG Expo in order to narrow things down a bit.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

[Q] Finding right place to mod an app

I hope this is the right place to post a question about modifying an existing app. In the long run, I want to create a Xposed module to do the modification, but to get started I work with modding the decompiled app. The app in question is de.zeit.diezeit.epaper.android, which is a German newspaper reader app (I am not expecting anyone to know it). What I want to do is to get rid of the scrolling animation when reading an article, because I am using this app on an eInk device (Icarus Illumina).
Now my problem is, I don't find a starting point. I have to say I don't have much (read: almost none) experience with writing Android apps (although I have a lot of programming experience otherwise). Thus I have no idea how such an animation would be implemented. I searched for references to the Scroller class and replaced the duration argument of the startScrolling method by 5ms, but this didn't change anything.
Is there any way to run the app in some kind of debug mode to see which methods are called at which time? Another idea how to find the right spot might be the trigger of the scroll: I am using the hardware page turn buttons of the device to scroll down exactly one page. How would this be implemented, what should I search for to find the code that reacts on these buttons? (Also: how can I press these buttons in the emulator?)
I am sorry if I am asking too many noob questions. If there is relevant documentation I have obviously missed, please point me to it. Thank you very much for any help!
Try looking under res/anim*

Hi, very late after the question, but I am considering buying an Illumina XL HD e-reader in order to have e-ink to read newspapers. What has been your experience with your device (which model in particular is it?)? Also, I would like to root it. Do you know if that is possible? Finally, did you manage to modify the app? If so, was it difficult?
Hi, hope you found the solution
