Install a custom ROM with them in?
There's a guide around for that. Have a look at the index linked in my signature, it's in there.

Well i went on and gave it a search on that thread. I was unable to find anything related to it. I know that you can enable the soft keys with custom ROMs. I would like to do this with cm10.1.2. Which doesn't have the option built in, I did this with a previous phone I had and was able to disable to capacitive external keys. And enabled the onscreen. Which makes things a lot more comfortable. If anyone has any other ideas, would be very appreciated.

I'm afraid you'll have to put some lines into the build.prop. There's no option to enable them from the menu.

Isn't it the old
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
line?
Although this will just give default size buttons with no way to adjust the size.
[MOD][CM10/10.1] On Screen Buttons is for the Galaxy S, but might give you an idea where to start looking if you wish to try developing this yourself.
Or you could try SoftKey Enabler from the Play Store and see if that works on our device - I'm running Magic ROM v2 and love having capacitive buttons so have no interest in tryng this myself.
That's the one. And you can disable the capacitive buttons by editing a file, it's all described there. Of course it's not directly in the index, the guide is linked in the "guides" section. I'm on Tapatalk now, so no way to directly give the link to the right thread.

Root is needed.
Thanks xigzil / Martin Börjesson
If it is good enough I will send request to add to original app.

Works for me, except the default setting is "faded pulse", which seems to be unsupported.

It seems like 4X does not support front key brightness control.
Nice work!

I use the app NoLed , it works great and no need to root, you can set the time for how long the notification will stay on.
works great for me!
This app has been working great for me, thanks a lot atipon! However, I encountered a problem that might be caused by this app.
I did an update from V10D to V10F firmware and now the softbutton backlight wont stay on anymore, as set in the system settings. It has been working on V10D flawlessly, but with the new firmware, the lights will go out in a few seconds, no matter if they are set to always on.
Another user has reported, that this setting was working for him on the V10F firmware.
Uninstall app and check that problem still or not.
App does not make any permanent change on phone.
I just did that a second time (uninstall & reboot), but with no effect. Strangely every other setting of light-on durations seem to work, so staying on for 1.5, 3 and 5 seconds, but when set to always on, the light will keep going off after a few seconds.
I noticed, that there is some system file 'br_maintain_on' in the button backlight folder and its content is '0' - could it be related?
Thanks for your help! This issue is really annoying me.
EDIT: OMG, changing the content of this file to 1 did fix it instantly! I'm not sure, if this app caused this behavior to happen but if anyone has the same issue, the exact location of the file is:
/sys/devices/platform/button-backlight/leds/button-backlight/br_maintain_on
EDIT 2: the file will be set to '0' on each reboot, even with read-only permissions and when this app is not installed. It looks like this could be a firmware bug?

I have an optimus 4x(just like all of us):screwy:, and the lock/unlock/power button is a bit awkward:banghead:...
All of the unlock apps present in market require pressing the power button.
Can any one developed an app/mod that will wake the phone without the use of power button!?
I myself would like try but don't know first thing about Android development. So if u lazy then please guide me in which direction to go

If you use holo locker from the market you can use the volume button to wake the screen. If that's any good?

I know this is not your inteded answer, but would't the phone be unlocked all the time? I mean, those capacitive buttons are easily pressed, even through pockets. Plus, you'd need to power them all the time which would cause some battery drain.
On the old HTC Desire S we had "Sweep2Wake" - but that requires kernel modifications AFAIK. Maybe something for the future as it was quite a nice feature, and I don't like using physical buttons to wake my phone as it wears them out too quickly.
How about smart screen off pro from play store? It uses the proximity sensors and/or the light sensors to wake up your phone by put them out of the pocket or anything else...
Great app that I used by my self...

Hello.
You can try also "Auto Screen On" from Google Play. It works with the frontal sensor; it's perfect to have your phone turned on when getting out from your pocket. After trying similar apps, I prefer this

Hi mate. Cool idea, have beats headphones and always wanted to make control work with motorola. Had sensation xe before and it was great to control music by headphones.
Keep it up mate.
For me your mod doesn't work just recognised all 3 bottoms as "next track"
I used headset control app. Hope you'll figure it out and our headphones will be 100% useful again
Cheers mate.

As workaround you can set all things to next key first of all.just define one click as play/pause and double click as next, press and hold as volume up and reset or as ever u like. Did you thought on rebooting the phone?

The first think was, the files you provided are *. txt instead of *. kl so had to rename it. Later I replaced files and set up program for 3 bottoms, one next track one start stop track and one previous track. The problem was all 3 bottoms was recognised as "next track"
This is strange
What do you think about it?? If you have any ideas what am I doing wrong please let me know mate. Cheers

When I had my Defy, i just changed the "headsethook" entry in some file I cant remenber to "media_next" and all 3 buttons were used for that.
In Razr I cant even to that, using a keymap app when I press the buttons on my headset it won't even show up.
there is a way to enable "volume rocker?"
Yes gonna make a Script

A couple of days ago I asked in the Q&A forum if it was possible to disable your physical back home and menu buttons and enable the on screen buttons like on the nexus 4. A guy named: UncleRipper helped me by telling me how to do it, so I want to share it with you guys. But all props to UncleRipper! For an example of how it looks on my phone see the photo below.
So what we want to do is enable the on screen buttons, disable the physical buttons, and stop them from lighting up everytime you touch the screen. I know you can disable this in the settings if you're on lg's software, but I am running cyanogenmod 10.1 nightly.
So first enable the on screen buttons:
open a file manager with root ( Solid Explorer or Root Explorer), go to /system and open build.prop (backup it!!):thumbup:
add this line at the end of the file build.prop:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
restart your phone.
Now you got the on screen buttons, you want to disable the physical buttons:
Use "button remapper" (search it on google cause isn't on play store) and assign "focus" to home, back and menu buttons.
The app is simple to use and the values to change are last in the list.
After the physical buttons are disabled you want to stop them from lighting up when you touch the sceen:
Prerequisites:
Root
SManager (play store)
SManager widget (play store)
Your phone
this script: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iz6t5eql0w...tkeyscript.zip
First install the app SManager and accept the SU request.
Use a root file browser and move the script from the SD Card your system/etc/init.d folder
Go into SManager and locate the 2 scripts. Click on them and tap the little star button in the top left to make them a favorite. And click the little SU icon while your at it! (optional: click also on run on boot the gear near "su" command)
Add the widget to your home screen, run the script and turn off the display and then turn it back on.
If the physical buttons wernt visible id do this. But i find LMT launcher works great for when a can be bothered doing hand gymnastics to push the back button.

Yep, if the physical buttons went off, it would be good. Could You make it working? ;D
The physical buttons are disabled and they don't light up anymore, so you can't really see them anymore unless you take a really hard look. But hey, it's your choice rather to use it or not! I'm just saying it's possible ;D

Open /system/usr/keylayout/touch_dev.kl and remove/comment three lines from the almost end of the file (those with VIRTUAL word). Works, at least on PAC 23.0/CM10.1, not sure if in stock rom will also work. Then use the script from OP to disable lights (I'll try to find simplier way to do it all).
And of course add this:
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
at the end of /system/build.prop
+1 thank you I got it all working now.
