i got an idea to make the z better
if its possible to make the power button a back button when i am inside an app or menu
and when i go back to the home screen the power button will be a lock/power button again
its good if some one make that and add the 3 dots to menus the bottom bar can be removed
How much time you took to bring this idea

Any one know of away to take screen shots with out power button. I'm running asylum cm10 v6 and have no power button all apps I have found do not work with the gnote. So I'm looking for ether a app or a way to remap buttons to do it with one button like holding the back button or something like that.

I'm sure you know it already or maybe the custom ROM won't support it but did you try putting the side of your palm and sweeping it to the left? or maybe holding the button on the s pen and touch the screen with it?
If you already knew that and that the pen would not work on a custom rom, peace!
The palm trick only works on TW roms so , I guess you will have to use power button
I guess there are many apps in playstore to take screenshots
well i could not get any apps to work so i just figured out how to remap the power button to the home button so i lost the home button but have my power button back is a good trade for me anyways

Remap worked fine for me no need for an app

Apparently so....

Yeah, this was discovered a while back in some coding. Not really sure I'll have a use for it, but it's good to know it's there.
The answer is: Not Really.
In the other thread they showed a pic of the digitizer used on the HTC One. There is no "touch-sensitive" area under the HTC logo. The kernel hack discussed where the HTC logo *is* turned into a button mentions that it is only responsive at the very top of the logo.

Although this is nice work, I think the HTC logo as a button is a lost cause.
Am I the only one that likes the two buttons? I like minimal designs and I have no problem long pressing or double taping a button to get what I need. I think the two buttons looks nicer than having a dedicated menu/multitasking button.
I have been on HTC for sometime and all of them had the long press for multitasking so I might just be used to this kind of setup already.
I'd be fine with the two button layout if it weren't for how they handle the menu "button" for apps (like this one!) that haven't adopted Androids latest design guides for how the menu function should be handled... I really hate that big black bar on the bottom of an otherwise beautiful screen!

i like the two button layout....took a little getting used to but....
I'm used to the buttons now, but that would have been cool to have the HTC Logo as an actual full functioning button.

if you root/unlock and install either ViperROM or the Xposed Mod pack, you can get rid of the black bar and instead long press back button.
that's what I did, I too hated that black menu bar at the bottom!

If you are rooted the back button long hold menu
Is long-pressing home very much preferable to the default way of doing this (double-tapping home)?

I my self would definitely prefer a long press rather than having to double tap. Sometimes I miss the second two and just go home but would have no problems with a long press.

Any solution to this? I'd like to make long-press home as the multi-tasking view and disable double-press home entirely (don't care about google now).
On the new 4.2.2 long press is now the menu button, double tap home is the recent apps like before and press, hold, and swipe up is the Google now

Yea I just saw this when I flashed to a 4.2.2 ROM. The thing I want to disable is the double-tap home button as it makes the single-press home a bit laggy since it has to wait to see if the second button press of home is registered or not. I would rather the phone just instantly goes home when I press home which requires the double-tap home function to be disabled which is why I'd like to rebind the task-switcher to something else like long-press home.

It doesn't make it laggy, as it doesn't wait for the second tap. You can still do the second tap once it gets to the homescreen. If you think it's slow, you should see the Samsung Galaxy phones with their REAL homebutton lag

It does... this is exactly what I'm relating it to. On my S3 it had double-press home to go to the S-Voice app. Once I disabled that feature, the home button would be instant on the S3. Otherwise, it would be "waiting" for the 2nd press. It's the same thing with the HTC One... at least it feels like it.
And no, I can't still do the 2nd tap when I get to the home screen...

I can some people store more electrical charge in their fingers, guess you are lacking that 'zap'
In all seriousness, I don't have any lag and you can disable the double tap by editing the framework.jar

Lol... well I feel the vibration feedback of the 2nd tap but it just acts as me pressing the home screen again, not part of the 2nd press from the 1st. I've tried timing it very closely but I still can't get it to go home and then bring up the task switcher. I can just get it to go home, then go home again, or get the task switcher.
Disabling it is only half the battle... I still want to bind the task-switcher to long press but I lack the know-how to do it lol. Thought there would be something built into modaco's framework to do it but I don't see that level of button customization there yet.

Well you have to do it by placing your finger in the HTC logo on the bottom, and slide it up on the screen. Did you do that correctly perhaps?

Yes it does not work!
I just installed a couple of games to try and they have a black bar on the side/bottom with 3 white dots in it. How do I get rid of it so I can fill the screen completely? I tried a search but not sure what the bar is called so got no results.
Also. How do I get the running apps up so I can swipe them away? If I long hold the home button I just get Google crap.
Thats the menu button. If youre rooted install the xposed mods and the back button enabler which means you can hold down back button for menu.
Please hit thanks button rather than saying it

Landscape view is not supported on a stock rom as far as I know, I would wait for some rom development I'm sure it will get baked in. I noticed on this phone that the ... will appear on the far right if there is no place in the app for a soft key menu. So if the ... is there use that, if it isn't there should be a place in the app where you can press to do the same thing as pressing the menu. I actually wouldn't mind a full time menu key in the far right, I think it's very handy. I original capacitive 4 buttons on the evo were still my favorite lay out.

If you use GravityBox & XPosed, you can have one there at all times. See screenshots. They were taken from my Nexus 7 Tablet, but you should expect no difference, with the exception of the small window in the first screenshot (courtesy of the XHaloFloatingWindow module).
I might have to give this a try. The space is there for the menu key so I wouldn't mind it always being there.

That's definitely something that I am likely to use on every device with on screen buttons. Using GravityBox, I remapped the menu to switch to the last app when double tapped, and show the power menu when long pressed. It's wonderful.
