Disable volume button camera/quick memo shortcuts? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone found a way to disable these shortcuts at all? I have the Verizon G2 and it's getting kind of annoying opening these when I don't want to.

There is no setting for this, but I'm sure it can be done with a mod.

This Xposed module will do the trick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477586

I've been trying to do this the other way around - my hardware buttons were effectively disabled! I've just discovered that the QuickWindow case (when closed) disables the hardware buttons from launching the Camera and QuickMemo apps...
Solution: Fit a QuickWindow case (or glue a magnet to the screen!
B.

So no real solution yet, except from getting the pro G2Xposed?!

G2Xposed makes apps stopping, so this is not the best solution.
Still looking for solution of disabling Vol +/- buttins in blocked status.

[Q] Use Trackpad for wakeup

Hi Everyone,
I have a question.
I want to use the big black touch button on the front of my Desire Z to wake up the screen.
I know it is possible, but i don't know how. I already rooted it and followed the S-OFF method. Can someone tell me how to use the front button as wake-up button?
Thanks in advance!

You can allso try the app 'widget locker' from the appstore.
It does this for me and i don't need root

Yeh, I think this is the most reliable method at the moment, the other known mods are currently inconsistent.
I bought widget locker, how do you set it so that only the trackpad button wake is enabled and not this other lockscreen stuff! I can't seem to enable the trackpad wake without it!

[Q] Hide Soft Keys and use Pie Control

Hi guys,
I would like to hear any recommendations or experience from you. What is the way you used to hide soft keys and use pie control?
I found many apps in the market or this xposed thread. I have rooted D802 and I would like to follow some well working combination instead of spending time to install & try & uninstall.
Thanks a lot for answers.

Install lmt launcher and set pie up.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
Then add this to the bottom of build.prop, it disables the soft keys without an app.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Do it with an build.prop editor to get the right permissions and so on.
Cheers.

Thanks, works great! :victory:
I got only one issue:
I got FC message when connect USB cable, headphones. I think it's related to "LG animation of plugging cable" on the bottom of screen (attachment). Do you have it same? Did you solve it somehow?

Well, that FC bothered me so much that I made Xposed Mod to get rid of it. If you will experience it again, you can get it here.

other than using the power button to turn it on, and crossing my fingers that this will get re-enabled in Android 4.5/5 around July/August, no :/
Also annoyed that the auto-brightness+ setting is now gone, but that at least was fixable through the Lux app.
Brightness button did not disappear on mine. Sprint S4
Any solution for the home button?
It's a world wide issue with all tw KitKat updates.

Couple alternatives. Wanam with Xposed could fix it. Also, a different launcher would let you set it too.

Thx bud,
I don't think that the prob is from the launcher, as it doesn't work with other launchers neither (I don't use TW, also it is working normally with s-view cover opened).
I have Wanam with xposed, but don't find any option like that... could you help me out? Thx a lot!
I found another strange issue, don't know if you have it , too. If I deactivate auto-unlock when I open s-view cover, it still unlocks when I open it... even after restart.
Edit: Found the solution for other issue: Nils Notification was set to always unlock when cover opened, nothing to do with rom... My fault

In Wanam, under System, there is a section for Long Home key behavior, can you not, Launch S Voice from there?
I use Google Now, and this is how I launch that.
As for S-view, I can't help with that, I dont have that.

Power button twice camera

Does anybody know if it's possible to change the camera app when double pressing the power button? I have changed my default camera to proshot but when double pressing the power button it still opens the stock camera.

I don't use Proshot but I just cleared defaults for my stock camera and set the action to Snapchat which worked fine. Try clearing default launch action for any camera apps and the double tap your power button, it should prompt you to select one, select Proshot and then say Always.

Hi! I'm the developer of ProShot. If you have a password-protected lockscreen, the power button shortcut won't work at this time (it will work if there is no password though). For some reason Android isn't granting the app access to the camera, despite the fact that it's declared properly in the manifest. I'll be reaching out to Google about this.
Disable stock camera with root and see what happens?
Disabling the stock camera just makes the screen flash when double pressing the power button. I disabled it with titanium backup. How are your suggesting disabling it?

Hi,
I'm sorry for hijacking the thread but since you're here I thought I'd ask if it's normal for the app to freeze/take a while to respond when you change the orientation of the phone? It's happening to me a lot lately, to the point that I stopped using the app. We are able to keep talking about this through PM or I am able to PM you my email address in case you need some sort of logs.
Thanks

When you change the orientation, the app does a normal UI rotation animation (shouldn't freeze or anything). This is unfortunately necessary due to a bug in Android. The UI rotation only takes 0.5s though. Is it taking longer? We can PM, just wanted to address the issue publicly

But weirdly A Better Camera and Open Camera will show up as an option when I have a PIN
When I don't have a PIN ProShot will show up
So what are they doing differently?

I'll try recording it and, in case I'm able to reproduce it, I'll send you the video by PM.

I don't know There's a public git for Open Camera and I see that our permissions declarations are the same. I've spent a lot of time looking into this and I'm stumped.

Sorry, what did do specifically? I'm trying to do the same with EX Kernel and I turned down the gesture vibration all the way, but it didn't change anything.

How to disable notch (front camera) acting as power button?

I don't know at which time this got activated, maybe its a "feature" of the CarHD mod I am using, but its so annoying and I cant find how to disable it. I googled it, searched it here and in the phone menu, but no luck. Taping the front camera notch locks the phone, and holding it brings up the power menu. Its so useless and annoying, because I press it by mistake and lock my phone. The actual power button is much more easy to press. Anyone has the same issue? Have you found how to disable it?
Thanks in advance.
There would be an option in the carhd rom control app, perhaps in the status at section
