quick question, i'm on zeus 7.01 ROM, trying to modify every file in the system/usr/keylayout/, and change Key 217 (which is search button) to APP_SWITCH.. I wanted my search button to launch the recent apps window..
But after rebooting, seach button doesn't do anything.. Am I doing something wrong? or maybe the code APP_SWITCH is wrong? many thanks!
+1 i need it too

I'm having the same problem on CM10. Can change all the other buttons except the search.
Anyone knows how to solve this?
Try to disable the app Google search. If Google search is active, it overrides the key config

Would that be a good idea? Wouldn't it disable many other functionalities on the device?
I've disabled Google Search and I didn't notice difference (but I didn't used Google Search that way). Now, if I press the search button, doesn't do anything... But if I press in an app like Go SMS Pro, it open the search.
Try to disable, you can enable it any time you want...
I'm currently using IZS 4.0.4 rom by heuxxx.
The app_switch perfectly works but it is the old recent app and not ICS style.
I can not achieve this in CM 10 4.1.2 stable.
Regarding the Google search.
I used to disable it, but I decided to uninstall it.
The search function is still working in apps that has it. Ex: boat browser, solid explorer
There are some apps that can be launched by long pressing the search button. Ex: quick utility
Until now, I'm still looking for an app other than Google search that can be launched by the search button (one click, not long press).
But no luck.

How did you manage to make the search button to app_switch? Can you send me the file? Thanks!

I think it depends on the ROMs.
I have tried CM7, CM10, CM10.1, Jellybam, and Zeus 7.
None of them worked for the app_switch.
The only ROM that has worked for me was IZS 0.4 ICS.
Basically, I just changed EVERY "217 SEARCH" into "217 APP_SWITCH" from ALL the .kl files in /system/usr/keylayout
But beware, you'll lose the vibration on the search button when you do this.
I'm still looking for a solution for this.
Again, it only worked for me in IZS 0.4 ICS ROM by heuxxx and all the other ROMs that I have tried did not work.

hey guys,
i installed gb om my N1, but navigon crashes, won't open.
can someone fix it pls?
thanksss
You should email the developer of Navigon, maybe it's not update for GB yet
i lold fer shur
Navigin is definitly incompatible with Gingerbread-roms. The navigon-support told, that they are working hardly on it.
Meanwhile you can read the following thread: Navigon Select on Gingerbread
Maybe that helps ;-)
I did that 2, still thesame.

you need to patch libmedia.so to make navigon work on CM7

navigon- running on gingerxperia 2.3.7
wel after flashing to gingerxperia v11 (2.3.7) i realised that navigon would force close. i was devastated because i love this rom it way outperforms the sony rom. anyway heres a fix. start navigon, and before it even has chance to boot quickly press and hold the home button to bring up the app switcher- select the phone icon and wait for 5 seconds... then hold the home button again and bring up te app switcher again, select navigon and it should work!. seems now after doing this once, my navigon app sparks up straight away every time. strange but true. im going to test this on a long run, but ive demo ran a 10 mile journey and the app has stayed on for the duration.
all i need now is a root method that works so i can install backtrack legacy.
Hi,
I'm running FroyoMod's latest version. However, I can't find any way to change the launcher to 2D which I found in the last version. And also is there any way to disable return button to kill app?
Thanks!

To free up space on the system, Luca removed the mods and placed them separately on another post, you just need to download the one you want and flash it. Alternatively, you can just use another launcher such as LauncherPro and change it from 3D drawer to 2D.
I believe there is an option to change that, but I can't remember where it is.

Go to the last point at: settings - applications - development
You could ask this in FroyoMOD thread, no need to open a new one.
(Or maybe you still can't post there xD)
thanks guys! I got it

Apparently, you need to create a service which contains to script to launch the intent activity before compiling the ramdisk. For time being, you can use the following app,

This app requires you to double tap but gets your job done. Hope I Helped

basically GA is exclusive to pixel phones and in this method we are using the official app, so hot word issue gonna exist until someone find a way to fix it.
I found a workaround for OK Google. 'ChopAssistant' Install this app, enable accessibility service, and voila. Say okay Google and Google assistant pops up.
Thanks to Daniel F Q for this app.
flashable zip works
the flashable zip method works but it has no memory. as soon as you ext the app it loses memory.
Will this trigger the assistant when the phone is dosing/locked?
How is the compatibility with the speech recognition chip that can wake/unlock your Moto with its counterpart in the pixel in general?
I hope this is not off topic.
