When we keep the home button active we can open google now so I eant to know if we can change this for a other app like phone or whatever. Can we use it like a shortcut?

So we know that you can do a native screenshot on froyo holding down back and then pressing home. Some apps work but not all apps do. For example this xda app if I were to hold down back, it would just pop back out to the main page and when I push the home button it would just go out to the home screen. Is that xda app or is that froyo?
I know that we can use external apps to get screen shots but I was just wondering if hold back and home not working on some apps is because those apps hasn't not been updated or is it just froyo?i guess the other thing could be my spaz fingers?

Yeah, I can change a key press of it to launch recents instead of going to home but that isn't what I'm looking for.
I want to remap long press functionality which is a more involved process.
Thank you.

I'm trying to get this to work as well. I'm trying to map it to the menu button. All threads I can find, tutorials included, are remapping to single press too. I've been checking out the key layouts folder in system/usr but I can't find anything referring to long presses. Have you made any progress?
If I remember correctly for the HW long press the DPI of the handset needs to be set to 'Phone' rather then 'Tablet' if you are using the latest version of PA.

Hi,
Anyone able to remove the camera shortcut from the bottom? That is the least function I even use on my "Phone"!
I can move it between the four position, I can put it in a folder but I can't remove it. I would love to put my gmail there instead (along with phone, message and browser), I use gmail 1000 times more then the camera
This is the one bit about the one I don't like. The app draw is confusing. You have to go into the app draw. Long press on the app you want in the draw and drag it to the bottom.

I now find that it makes sense to organize the bottom shortcuts in the app drawer.. it's just a new feature for old souls to get used to, but I like it now.

It does take a couple of goes to get used to but I like the way htc have done it, it's good to be different.

I don't really like the new sense, sense 4.5 are much better...

I like how they implement it. Making it only removeable on the app drawer makes it more secure to accidental touches. I usually hold my phone when screen is on and there are times I get my homescreen messed up due to these long presses that moves it accidentally.
Custome shortcuts can't be added

The issue I've found with this, is that I can no longer add a custom shortcut that I've created from apps like Quickshortcutmaker. After creating a unique shortcut, it adds the shortcut to my home screen. From that point on, I cannot add it as a lockscreen shortcut, as that requires that I open up the app drawer (which does not show my custom shortcut).
I've been scrambling around to figure out how to add a custom shortcut. I don't think it's possible without rooting. On the HTC Evo LTE, etc.. I used to have a custom shortcut to the Voice Search feature to go directly there without having to click more than once.

There is a way. Download Gravity box (KK) and open it. Then scroll down and click on navigation key actions, then modify the long press and single tap for Recents Key
