I tried the mod for other set models like galaxy s 2 but they put my phone into bootloops.

I wanted to know is there a way to change which app launches when you long press the menu button? Currently it's Google search.
I'm on a rooted Xperia S, if that matters.

Is there any way to change the long press of the search button behavior on the Droid X? It seems like it's hard coded to bring up voice search. I want to use Rotation Toggle, which can toggle screen rotation on long press of search, but I can't with the Droid X. I am rooted so if the solution requires that, I'm good.

I am using seek bar to control volume of the device. I am able to change the volume of the device using thumb of the seek bar just by dragging it on touch pad. But when user presses volume(side) keys I need to set seek bar thumb position accordingly.

After a (brief) look around here, I have a couple of questions. Is it possible to change tracks by long pressing the volume keys?
It seems this is possible on the nexus one. How would I (can I?) put this on my desire.
Would I have to root to get it to work or is it something that is/might come with 2.2?

I've had my nexus 4 rooted for a couple months now and it's amazing but I'm having a problem when I long press notifications, nothing happens. Normally I have "app info" and "open in halo" but nothing pops up at all.

Is long pression the home button and removing open/recent apps "killing" the apps? I read that there is no need to "kill" an app and it actually uses more battery life than it saves. Should I be actively swiping away recent apps?

I need to be able to skip the swipe screen and unlock the phone by long pressing the power button. On short press, it should act regularly (waking up and showing the swipe screen). I've tried "No Lock", "Autolock" and "My Lock Utility" but these unlock the phone immediately after pressing the power button I think this would be the ideal combination of functionality.
My phone is Motorola Atrix.

This only happens in landscape mode.
I've found a thread on it: [URL] .....
I've rebooted several times and tried both Nova Launcher and trebuchet.

New feature on the android Hangout app :
"Long press contacts in the New Hangout screen to hide them."
I tested and hided someone but now I wish to unhide him now, how can i do ?
I looked everywhere, can't find the option not even in block contacts, i can't see him with the green icon now even though he's online.

On ICS I used to skip songs on Poweramp using the headset button, but since I upgraded to Jellybean, the long press goes to Voice Search on Google Now? Is there a way to disable that? I already configured on Poweramp to use the long press, gave it high priority, but google voice continues taking place and there's no options there to disable it.

Galaxy Nexus
Android Version: 4.2.2
Steps to reproduce the problem:
- plug in headset
- lock screen
- press headset button for several seconds
What happened:
- No reaction, Google Now / Voice Actions not launched
- Manually unlock screen
- Long press with unlocked screen correctly launches Voice Search
What you think the correct behaviour should be:
Long press of headset button should launch Google Now / Voice Actions even with locked screen. Having to dig the phone out of your pocket in order to launch Voice Actions with a headset e.g. to place a call kinda defeats the purpose of using Voice Actions in the first place.
Adding insult to injury: long press is not broadcast to other applications because of Google Now, so it can't even be put to good use e.g. as volume control.
This was open and ignored by code. [URL]... Issue 48616

I have a Nexus 4 running stock JB 4.2.2.
At some point (not sure when exactly) the long-press feature to bring up the context menu for links in Chrome stopped working.
When I long-press on a link, all that happens is I get a short vibrate, but no menu.
This means that I can no longer "Open in new tab".It's all working fine on my Nexus 7.

Rather than ask where I can find this mod (it's been asked in many threads already), I'd like to make a request to the great android development community. This mod is pretty much essential to me, and it seems to be hard to come by in non-CM based ICS and JB ROMs, so what I'd like to ask is:
Is is possible for someone with the proper knowledge to elaborate some sort of guide, as general as possible, for AOSP and perhaps MIUIv4 Roms, if that is possible at all? I and many others might want this mod but don't have Roms that support it. My programming skills are extremely limited but perhaps with a guide, as general as it might be (given the differences in the code for each phone), I could get something done..

i exchanged my phone today do to a faulty microphone. now i got this evo and for example when i text and i wanna hold for a question mark it just puts down the letter and wont let me hold and alot of other things are very unresponsive or move slowly. I actually got the notification bar to stay halfway down which never happen to me cause i think it automatically goes all the way down. I did install a invisible sheild but i dont think that has any effect since most of the water is gone.it was working fine before i installed it tho. i had to turn the device off when the bottom buttons wouldnt respond until i would put it to sleep and then shortly after it go back to not responding then the screen stopped responding. is this faulty hardware?

I download radio shows directly to my device so i can listen on the subway and when I don't have a connection. Been doing this for years with my galaxy nexus (4.2 and 4.3). Tired it today on my shiny new nexus 5 and the tracks auto skip about halfway through. The tracks are typically a few hours long. I usually use mortplayer, but I tried antennapod and google music and it is happening is those apps too.

In Android, how can I send a long press from an InstrumentationTestCase? I'd like for instance to do a sendKeys(KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER) but make that a long click.

Android supports an event onLongPress. The question I have is 'how long' (in milliseconds) is the 'press' to trigger the event?

I have, for the time being, a custom view with a 9-patch image as a border.
That custom view is placed three times in a LinearLayout, so it looks like this:
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
| CustomView |
+------------------------+
I have attached a click event listener to the View, so it is clickable. But then I click it, I cant see that I am clicking it - there is no change in color.
So, Im thought that I'd attach a "onPress" listener, and then change the background of the view but I couldnt find such a listener.
So, the question is - how do I create the behaviour on the View so I can see that it is being pressed? this is normally done in Android with a green background to indicate that it is now being pressed.

How can I capture a long press of the device menu button in my application?I thought of an intent filter, but there's only an action called android.intent.action.SEARCH_LONG_PRESS, but nothing for the MENU button.I found that long press of the menu button actually does different things on different devices,i.e. on Nexus One it will show the soft keyboard, while on Samsung Galaxy S it will pop up the search widget.

By default, if we long press search key it opens quick search box with the keypad slided up. what should be done if I want to change this default action to launching of an application when ever search key is long pressed. This obliviously requires changes in the framework. i tried changing some code in Search dialog.Java file but we can't use Start Activity there. pls guide.

While I was roaming around in the App section of the forum I stumbled across this thread. Long press "+" = skip track. One of the people who posted a comment in it claims that by long pressing on their volume rockers, will skip tracks. Does anyone here know if this is true? Apparently it only works with 2.1 and if this is the case, which I can't do cause I am running BB v1 but i am confused cause its in 2.1 even though I rooted under 2.0.1. Can anyone confirm this?

I've written a web-app in HTML and Javascript for iPhone and Android which involves the dragging and dropping images.You initiate the drag by holding your finger over the image for about a second. However, Android then pops up the message giving me the option to save the image, set it as wallpaper etc.How can I prevent Android from doing this? Is there a metatag I can use? Some javascript?
