[Q] Hardware Buttons

Can the hardware buttons like back, menu, home , etc...can wear out if we use them more.... or using button saviour is a good idea. And anyone else is using button saviour app.
Is there someone out there who is having this problem?
And is there other app which is same as bitton saviour.

Don't know about battery savior but the MENU and BACK are CAPACITIVE TOuCH KEYS which WILL NOT WEAR.out. And yes the home button will deteriorate over time!

That app is only useful if you broke your phone buttons

Or if your finger is in pain when you put it under more pressure than touching screen. :angel:

But using the Button Saviour we can save the home button a few, don't you think?
I have tried to use Button Saviour one time, but i hate it. I hate the virtual button on the side of screen, so i searched another way to save home button and i found the app "Home Button" like free on market (link below). This app runs like a ongoing on the notification bar. So if we need to go to home screen, just roll down the notification bar and click on the app. The best part, the app don't run on backgroud, so no RAM usage! It only run when we click on, and than it close immediately.

Hi
Other than picking it from the power button, is there another method of taking a screenshot?

No for stock
but maybe u will get another method if use custom rom !

I find that if I hold power + volume down for 1 second, it takes a screenshot? as opposed to selecting it from the power menu it just does it straight away

Remove hold back to kill apps?

I just flashed ecliptic Rom after using viper and I noticed that whenever I hold back it kills the app. How do I disable this so I can long press back for menu? Thanks!

[Q] Double Tap 2 Wake Features

Does anyone know if there is yet a kernel or a way to map the phone so that the HTC logo can be used for something useful say like a menu button or as an area where you could double tap it to wake the phone? and yes I know the features is about the same as LG's knock to wake but I was wondering if it's available for our device

Yeh after having an i777 last couple years with the on screen keys, it's taken me about a week to get used to a home button and the 3 key layout, pressing left for multi and holding it for settings feels a bit awkward to me out of habit lol

Exactly how I'm feeling! I even miss the fourth "search" button on the i777. I had longpress open a QR scanner which always came in handy.
