So I installed a custom rom (Android Rev HD) that had the mod that removes the 3 dot menu black bar by simulating a menu press by long pressing the back button. However, I found out that it also removes the 3 dot button in apps where it was actually integrated nicely into the UI instead of having a black bar at the bottom. An example of this is Chrome where the 3 dot button is right next to the "show all open tabs" button. Is there any way I can keep this mod but not remove the 3 dot button in apps where it is nicely integrated into the UI?
Check your build.prop
If you have the line: "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0", change the "1" to "0". Save the file, set the permissions & restart.
Note: check the file permissions before editing, so that you set the permissions back to the same status after editing the file.

I've got my nook 2e rooted and whatnot, but I can't figure out how to remap the hardware keys. There are a few threads on the forum suggesting various configs but search didn't turn up one on exactly how to do it...
For remapping the N button: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139769
For remapping page buttons: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126654
Good luck!
So I think between the two I understand which file I want to edit and what I want to edit it to, but how do I access the file /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl?
Get Root Explorer and navigate from there. You'll want to change the permissions from R/W to R/O at the top of the screen. Then you'll want to do a long press on the file you want to edit, which will bring up a menu of choices. Scroll down to the one that lets you use a text editor, make the changes, then use back button to get out of there.
You can make a back up copy of the file by long pressing, copy/pasting before if you want. In my experience, a copy renamed filename.bak is automatically generated of any file you edit.
I'd like to assign the Nook key to wake/lock instead of Home. I would continue to use the soft Home key. Will something like this work? Could someone suggest the values for CM 10.1?

Using your root explorer of choice, replace the stock Generic.kl and gpio-keys.kl in /system/usr/keylayout/ with these in the attached zip. That will cause the "n" or the power button to wake/sleep the device.
I'm going to experiment with how to prevent the power button from waking the device. It's too easy for that to get pressed while it's in my bag.
Hello guys.This is my first post/topic.I know there are already a lot of topics about GPS on I9001(that video when registering kinda scared me :angel
I can't connect to the sattelites in less then 5 minutes.This happens every time.Now,when I finally connect,I keep losing the lock so you can imagine what happens in Copilot...So basiclly I can't use the GPS.
This is what I tried to do:
-I re-downloaded the A-Gps data with "GPS Status" app
-I calibrated pitch,roll and compass
-I tightened the screws on the back
-I modified the "gps.conf" with "FasterGPS" app
I live in Romania,Easter Europe...
Do you know what else I should do to make my GPS work well?
open "gps.conf" in a text editor and check to see if you have there's at the top of file:
server 0.ro.pool.ntp.org
server 1.ro.pool.ntp.org
server 2.ro.pool.ntp.org
server 3.ro.pool.ntp.org
if not then add them, save file, and just copy paste over old file using "root exposure" (remember to set permission as same as old file) then reboot.
EDIT: read this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239713
EDIT: here's a gps.conf I made for Romania, just replace with old gps.conf then set permissions and reboot. download link http://db.tt/zI0QGkpF

Hey.Thanks for the file.I downloaded it,but I am not that good with phones(better with computers)
How do I set permissions after I replace the old gps.conf?
download "root explorer" goto where you download my file, copy it then goto system/ect/gps.conf then in the upper right corner of "root explore" select "mount rw" then paste my file over old gps.conf, then hold finger on gps.conf file and a popup box will appear, scroll down to where it says "permissions" and change them to -rw-r--r-- also scroll down to "change owner" and change both to "root" then change the setting in top right corner back to "mount ro" thats it, just reboot.

Ok I did everything and went outside to check it.I have "GPS Status" so I entered in it and checked.Finally,after 190 s,it connected to 4 of the 9 sattelites and then to 5 from 10:victory:
No problems.
I'm happy with it,but form what I heard it should connect in a few seconds.If it's not possible,then tell me.If it is,maybe I will do some other things to make it work faster.
Anyway,in general,I owe you a big THANKS
my gps takes about the same time to connect but it varies depending on satellite positions and cloud cover ect... now you know how to edit the gps.conf file you can search around see if you can find a better solution. anyway glad it's faster than before.
You must have root access on your device
I've used this feature in the custom ROM MorfuZ V4.0 with also the Navigation Gestures of XDA. great combo.
Now I'm on the stock ROM , and, since hidding the navbar cause a problem on the bottom of the lockscreen I've found this a good method to bypass the problem and keep again the fingerprint navigation.
Simply add to build.prop this two lines:
ro.config.hw_front_fp_navi=true
ro.config.hw_front_fp_trikey=1
Save and reboot
After navigate to settings > navigation key and select the top to enable the gestures.
Tested and working on WAS-LX1A running EMUI 8
Step by step:
1) Download and install root explorer on your phone.
2) Open the application and grant the root permissions.
3) Now, simply open go to /System/ and then you will be able to see Build.Prop file
4) Now, click on the option called as Mount R/O.
5) Long press on that files and you will get a pop-up of open with
6) Just hit open with text editor and then you are good to go
7) Copy the codes above and simply paste on your build.Prop
8) Click on the save changes and then reboot your Android device.

The two link inside the spoiler.
I'd like to experiment. You can explain where the build-prop folder is and how I can add the lines. Thanks and sorry but I do not understand much of these modifications.

The build.prop is a file, you can do this:
1) Download and install root explorer (or Solid Explorer) on your phone
2) Open the application and grant the root permissions
3) Now, simply open go to /System/ and then you will be able to see Build.Prop file
4) Now, click on the option called as Mount R/O.

I've updated the main post.
Its work!but you know how to only disable navigation bar??or the gestures navigation like emui or the rom siriuz 3.5???
Here are modules that enable most important missing features to all Garden devices except Cattail.
All this modules are created by me. My username on 4PDA is redmi9c
Security 6.0.2: (GameTurbo with Voice Changer, VideoToolbox, Sidebar, Power Slider for battery, Night Charge, Battery Health)
MiuiHome 4.26: (Full Context Menu with Split Screen and Floating Windows, Recommend option in Recents enabled for China ROM as well, and Max Grid increased to 6x8)
Settings: (Special Features section, option to set Split Screen on hotkey and Navigation Line)
Delete long name folder inside "\data\system\package_cache\", uninstall Security and MiuiHome updates, than install modules and reboot phone.
Settings module is only for Miui 12.
Needed Magisk to install them.
If you want pictures I can post them but you can also find them on 4PDA forums.
Great work
Now my phone's feels me quite refreshing but why I am seeing this
After flashing settings module settings have been renamed to extend wifi coverage
How I can fix it
Delete long name folder inside "\data\system\package_cache\", than reboot phone. There is only one folder there, it has very long name consisted from numbers and letters and you need to delete it. There is only cache in there. When you delete it, restart will take a bit longer than usual so don't panic and let it boot normally.
Thanks this is perfect and gives my phone features from the flagships
I don't know how to find this folder.. please help me.. can give some screenshots please?

That's because Xiaomi started updating Settings.apk. You can enable it yourself. Locate Settings.apk in "system/product/priv-app/Settings/Settings.apk". Copy it to somewhere else. Download MT Manager app, and find where you copied Settings.apk with MT Manager. Click on it, then click View. After that click on Classes.dex then "Dex Editor Plus", then on OK. From there to Search than "Start New Search" and in "Text Field" type from example "angelica" that is Redmi 9C. It will find 2 files. There just change your phone codename to something different like (angelica to xangelica) or something in both files. Than just go back and it will ask you to save it. From there just click on moded apk to see if Signature value is "Verified failed" in red, that means that it is OK. From there just copy moded APK to "/data/adb/modules/Settings/system/product/priv-app/Settings/" and replace Settings.apk. Then reboot phone, and if you see some glitches delete that long name folder inside "/data/system/package_cache" and reboot. If you don't want to mess with this you could just disable Magisk module, delete that folder inside "/data/system/package_cache" and reboot, than change settings in "Developer options", and enable module again and delete that folder inside "/data/system/package_cache" again. If you mess it and get bootloop just in TWRP go to file manager and navigate to "/data/adb/modules/" and delete Settings folder and reboot and module will be removed.
