Hi,
I already have a Note 9 (got it right after launch), but with the default apps and procedures, i'm unable to remap the bixby button.
Anyone here already succeeded with this?

How you thinking you would remap it with default apps and procedures?... There is no such thing.
It was rumored to have remapable Bixby but it turned out to be false. You need to use a remapper app.

I understand. But for the S9 and S9+ there is an app in the PlayStore that handles remapping, the app seems to be working fine, except for the fact that the remapping doesn't work haha.
have you followed all the steps to activate and to run required ADB commands?

You have a link to a thread/article for the ADB Commands/procedure,or,just post it yourself.
I've been away from Samsung devices for about six months,would be nice to have the info,especially if the apps in the Google Play Store aren't working.
THX! :good:
You can check app here : BxActions

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if the Bixby Button can be used as Mute button during the call. Remember the Mute button on the blackberries? Very handy.

bxActions app (Play Store) should be able to do it / configure the Bixby button for this function.
See screenshots for some use /options
Don't know if this option is available in free version.
I'm using the Pro version.
Good luck
I'm guessing OP means to mute the mic during a phone call, I'm not sure if bxActions can do that.

You can try using the Button Mapper app from the Play Store and assigning the "Mute Microphone" action to the Bixby Button. You need to run the suggested ADB command first before you can do it though.

I would LOVE to be able to make this goofy bixby button toggle mic mute during calls. I have to do a ton of conference calls for work and really miss having a button for this from BB days.

Finally got back to this. Installed and enabled it. However when on call doesn't mute the call. When not on call i press the button toast message shows up "mic muted"
BxActions + Tasker should do the job *not tested.
is there a solution?
Has anyone found a solution? Seems there area alot of "may work" but nothing has been confirmed?

Buxby Mute app does this exactly.
Note 9 announced, so came Bixby along with it. This time it's version 2.0, out of the box. Samsung says it's now better at predicting user needs, processing natural languages and is quicker. You like it or you are going to remap it with a remapper or disable it forever? Or you want it to be dead already? Share your thoughts.
I'm too heavily invested in the Google assistant ecosystem. I liked how DJ Koh talked about how fragmented systems are because companies want to control, but results in a poor user experience, but then of course there's no way to disable bixby easily....not very open if you ask me.
I'll still test it out of interest.

Well, you can forget Bixby home, let only the "Bixby voice" to stay and to follow your commands, can disable both and 4get forever or can Remap with remapper.

Bixby seems to faster and context aware now (like Google Assistant), based on what I saw in Flossy Carter's unboxing and hands-on video (@8:02).

Yup, I watched that video sometime back. It's indeed improved but personally I'm not at all a fan of it when Google assistant so damn good
Hopefully its aware enough to disable itself before I do.

I think I'll give it another shot. Only reason I had stopped using was because I'm invested in Google Assistant. At least that's what I thought until just now when I realized, the only thing I use Google Assistant for is a 30 minute timer for my lunch clock punches.
Plus there's just something weird about saying "Hi Bixby," out loud.

I tried my best to like it for quite sometime yesterday. And soon I realized.... NOO Wayyy! this ain't my assistant.
there is a way to disable it and remap the button to something else without root right?

Yes, by executing Android Debug Bridge commands as there are some nice remappers out there.

good to know that. Thanks!
I currently use it only for system control. My daily driver is Google.
I use Bixby all the time. Google Assistant is my reminder only use. Now that it remembers you are in a conversation and don't have to keep repeating the initial context I'll be using it even more.
I'm not seeing options to disable Bixby hardware button entirely in Note 9, unlike S9/S9+.
The settings and UI are different in Note 9 in comparison to S9/S9 plus,but no option of "do nothing" when you press the Bixby key in Bixby settings or Bixby voice settings.
**The unit I'm having is NOT a retail unit, it's a demo/review unit, with latest OTA flashed 2 days back with few enhancements and August security patch. The option to turn the Bixby hardware button into a totally "dead" button might show up in retail units.

Nope no "switch off" bixby buttons... very annoying And BX actions isn't working "yet". I gave Bixby a try for a couple of hours... it's a no go for me.

ButtonMapper doesn't work as well. But I would assume those apps might work in future once devs start working on it.
Update:
Checked a retail unit and Bixby settings are not different from the demo/review unit I had been using.
So, using bixby/phone settings one cannot turn the button completely off, for now. This is ugly and a step backwards from S9/S9+ IMO.
Is there a way in settings the make the google now feature the primary voice command. According to alpine thats how I get my radio to work with voice command again.
Download bxactions and remap the bixby button to Google now.

Thisis what i originally did on my Note 8 ( and then later Note 9.)
to get my car radio to launch Google Assistant as Bixby kept popping up.
I also have bxActions installed on my phone, but what i originally did, regarding my car radio (Google voice commands) is..
Device /Settings /Advanced settings /Device Assistant app/set to Google and next to Google press settings cog icon
and set voice.... Google Assistant.
So if i press and long press /hold my car phone button
Google Assistant answers.
(Same as home button on device (function) for me)
So take a look and see if it works for you.?

Not sure, as i always had it preferred.
However , if you tap on the last setting page you can either enable or disable?

I chose to map a single press using a Bixby Quick Command. It's setup like this: What you say to Bixby "Google Assistant", What Bixby does "open assistant". It seems to work just fine.
I haven't received the update yet on my Note 9. Even went into the Galaxy Store and no updates are found.
I have the tmobile note 9 on oreo 8.1. I went to galaxy store and did the updates then pressed the Bixby button to open the app. Then pressed the three dots then pressed settings and picked what I wanted the button to do.
Yay....
Still haven't gotten the update. Note 9 Pie AT&T
Yippy, finally a progressive Update from Samsung! ?
In my case I want to map out for Discover but the issue is the same.
update is there in galaxy apps
Note 9 India

Check the Galaxy Store application. Go into it's settings and enable notifications for app updates and also look at your "My Page" and you will see the "Update" section which will list all of your pre-installed Samsung apps that have available updates. The "All" section is all of your apps installed from the Galaxy Store.

What?
Step in the right direction, but you are forced to enable the single press of the button (either to bixby or app action) and this is not good as it will lead to unwanted app/bixby launches.

Hi,
Is there a way I can remap the Bixby Key to toggle b/w silent & loud on off screen?
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.
