Is there one? I have tried a few from the Market and they dont work with Hero...
Any suggestions?
Yes there is an app calls Root-Booter.
But i think it only works with a rooted Hero
just use quick boot dude, root-booter does cost money
and yes, of course both require root!
edit: quick boot does not work always on hero dude..
thank you both. will try them...
Why not try this quick key press sequence?
call menu power all together..
Built in reset no need for extra widgets.

You need to be rooted, and it needs to be enabled on your custom rom

They enable it by default now? On previous devices you needed root because you had to add a line to the build.prop, so i wouldnt call it nonsense.

actually, you don't need root or any CFW for that. I didn't even need those on my Galaxy S2 back then.
HTC phones with ICS and up You can Power button then Home button
OR
Android 4 and up you can Power and Volume Down at the same time.
Thanks guys
working now!!!

Ohhh... You mean to completely shutdown the handset, then you're in no luck, as there isn't any app. to do that.

1 - Lower and raise the speaker volume.
2 - Reset the device.
3 - Lock Screen

You do not understand me. There is NO application that performs the shutdown function, there are only the following applications on the market:
1 - Lower and raise the speaker volume:

2 - Reset the device:

3 - Lock Screen:

You should edit your earlier post, then. As of this posting, it reads (emphasis added):

You're right, for some reason Google Translate failure. Right now just translate what you edited me in bold in the commentary and the translator says "there's an app that does this function," but I did not mean it and really do not understand English very well.
I'm sorry for the confusion, but it's my fault for not knowing English and because of Google translator, to translate wrong. Thanks for correcting me.
Regards and have a nice day, champ.
LOL, love a translator getting something exactly backwards... Whoooo Google!
Short answer... No. Use the POWER button. The clue's in the title of the button.... That's what it's for!!!!
To switch down the device when the power-off button doesn't work properly, just long-press simultaneously both the power-off and volume-down buttons. Worked for me on Lumia 720, so hopefully will work for you too. That seems to be a higher-level power off. Try twice if it doesn't work at first attempt. Hope this helps.
An app to do shut down would be BAD if as you stated the power button doesn't work. How would you ever turn it back on?
An app that allowed reboot however would be advisable, if such existed.
@riiidaa: Have you failed to notice that the phone automatically turns on when plugged into power?
There are apps that will reboot, but if you want to save battery by turning the phone off (with the caveat that yeah, you won't be able to turn it on again until you get to a power cable, which does sort of limit the usefulness) it's *probably* possible for an app to do this, actually. It doesn't require any terribly special permissions on Windows, at least normally. On the phone there is an ID_CAP_BUILTIN_SHUTDOWN which says it lets you "Shutdown or reboot the system" though, so maybe it's only possible for capability-unlocked phones.

You are the one top rated joker I have ever seen on XDA. First of all its nowhere mentioned its only for roms and kernels. kindly read the title carefully " Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development " . This thread belongs to other development as it is not a kind of any theme or app or mod. It is a fix for every custom rom out there which is built to run bixby. So even being a senior member, you dont know a thing. Kindly see before posting.
Hello dear @noppy22
Could you please move this topic into the right place maybe into this forum (apps, themes, mods).
Thank you very much for your assistant as always, have a nice day! :fingers-crossed:

Here is what I found out about Bixby after messing with it for many hours.
Unfortunately the "Hi Bixby" wake up command does NOT work.
None of the developers here in xda have found a way yet to get
Bixby to wake up by using your voice on the S7/S7 Edge phones.
The way it works right now is by swiping the home screen to
the right side and clicking on the tiny Hi Bixby icon or you need
to get a button re-mapper which can be set to use a long press
of the volume down and clicking on the "Hi Bigsby" icon before
you can start talking to Bigsby.
It works like a very poorly designed push-to-talk walkie talkie and
it's super slow and very laggy. It's nothing like Google Assistant.
In my opinion Bixby is not worth messing with until the developers
find a way to fix it so it works properly like the Google Assistant.
Please note, this is only my personal opinion which usually is
not worth very much! LOL
Good luck, Have a great day!

Thanks for everything. I highly appreciate that. I tried the same and unfortunately, it didn't work. So officially, I give up on that.
Have a wonderful day, man.

So try this. Install Built prop editor from Google Play and rename the model name from g955f to g955u if you have s7-edge or g950u if you have flat.
Reboot and open Bixby voice

Are you on an S8 port ROM?
Hey folks, I had reddit on my remapable button for Bixby for single press and double press is Bixby, but something happened yesterday out of the blue and it is not working anymore and it launches Bixby on single press and its frozen. Tried to re do the whole process nothing got fixed, restarted the phone, nothing, I do not have any new software, I sont use games I dont use almost anything except Google stuff like calendar and keep, some things like viber, Skype, WhatsApp, a bibble, or scanner and reddit... so the idea is I should not have anything to break my phone in my eyes, but I just also remembered there were Samsung updates yesterday in the Samsung store, for the apps and Bixby was one of them, has any one had similar issues, and do you know a fix?
Nobody?
I got the update for Bixby & related applications. At first, the single click of bixby button did launch the bixby assistant. Then I went to settings & disabled>enabled it & it worked good again.

If you totally remove bixby can you still remap the button?
For example I disabled bixby using package disabler pro and seem to be having issues remapping...
Yes, I use bxActions for that.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-bxactions-remap-bixby-button-single-t3832301
For me it works great. Action Shortpress is Display off and lang press Google Assistant.
After updating, I had to go through the Bixby setup the first time I hit the button but after that I'm back to normal on a single press.
