Disable Capacitive Buttons on CM10.1 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Morning People,
I have enabled the on screen navigation buttons for CM10.1 but hate how the capacitive buttons continue to light up.
Is there a way I can stop this? Either by deactivating them or just turning the light off?

Unfortunately not.

Possible solution
Hi there! I wanted the same for my Samsung galaxy mini 2, cm10.1, and found the following. It worked for me..
rootzwiki.com/topic/31065-tutorial-how-to-turn-off-capacitive-buttons-lights-and-use-on-screen-nav/
(with http) (it seems new members cannot post outside links).
As for the backlight, in my settings there is "advanced" menu, right below "apps", and you can turn backlight off there.. Don't know if it will work for you.

[Q] wake up HD7 with home/camera button

Hi everybody, I was wondering if there was the possibility to wake up the screen with another button instead of power, that is very unconfortable to push. First of all I wanted to ask if it's possible to use one the 3 softkeys on the screen (home, search, back). If it's not possible how about using the cam button? It's a physical button and it's in a more confortable position please let me know..
may be
up till now there is no method

I think I found the root of the problem.
The problem comes from enabling Accessibility->Services.
I had the "Greenify" enabled there. After turning it off keyboard start to work as before.

Watch notifier is the culprit. Switch that off and language switching comes back.
Actually, I had to disable ALL apps not just that one.

Found the Menu Button

Several release ago Samsung did away with a dedicated menu button. Many of the application developers enhanced their apps to have the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner to allow touch access to the menu button.. In the S6 those apps with out a menu button had a floating circle with the 3 dots. Now with the note 5 I could not find a button combination or the floating circle for apps like moon reader. Previously you would press and hold the multitasking button. NOW you need to press and hold the back button. Why do they need to change this so often and not communicate it? Oh well but there is your answer
Thank you so much... I've been searching for the answer to this question since I got mine on the 18th!!!

Thanks
Oh man ... thank God you found it ... was missing it in my s6 edge ... got my note5 today and its back bcz of you ...
I have held the back button on my note 5 and nothing comes up.
Ya, I suffered with this one for a while, coming from the Note 3. Then I saw someone on a video use the back button hold.
Take this site for example, subscribing used to be a breeze on my other device but long press back, the page will be back instead. Same goes to other app, the back and menu combination really a bad choice by samsung.

Menu button on note 5
I have long pressed the back button on my note 5 but it doesn't come up. I need it for game apps I play. Please help. Thanks.
@Alliswhat44 Its not a big deal with 'All in One Gestures' app in the store. You can combine the features of buttons(Home, Back, Recents, Volume up and down) as you wish. Even the Back button can be Recents..
Hi, I downloaded all in one gestures. I enabled it. Do all boxes have to be checked?

I enabled it all but it does not show what I want. I play shoot bubble deluxe and I need the menu button in the game to use skips and play levels already played

I think your device is not rooted, is it? You can manage Recents button as Menu(If rooted I think) with selecting 'Single Tap or Long press'. The app is perfectly usefull and working.
BTW there is an app name is 'GMD Gesture Control' Thats spectacular as pro.
some apps don't support it...would just quit the app
Correct. If the app uses an on screen menu button anyway (disregarding the android prop setting), then the long key press menu button doesn't work. Is really an app issue at that point.

many thanks!
I thought the long press of the back button brought up the menu?
Has no one made a tweak to change recent back to the menu button like they did with the note 4?

Capacitive Buttons

Hi,
For people who own a Mi , can we switch the two capacitive buttons?
I would like that the Back Button is on the left and the MultiTask One on the right
There's setting for it, you can switch them, assign them to some other task(short press and long press).

Where is it? I couldn't find any way to switch them. In the settings menu I can only see the setting to assign what should happen when you long-press them

It's the top one, "navigation buttons", you can set overview button on the left, back button on the right, and vice versa.
