View 5 Replies View RelatedNo Standard Menu Button In 3.0+ / How To Get Access To It
Oct 12, 2012I made my app compatible with both pre and post 3.0. Before 3.0 most phones had menu buttons which led to settings or other menu options. Since 3.0+ the dev guide has depreciated the menu button so phones don't need it. ICS and JB don't use them.
So how do I let users access it? In Gingerbread a user can press the menu button and then select the "Settings" link. Everyone knows what I mean but I feel I need to explain it: here's the dev guide anyway.
So if one of my users is on a 3.0+ device how can I let them get access to the settings page? I don't want to use the Action Bar like the dev guide suggests. That's a huge UI change just for one settings page.
I mean it's just one page and changing my UI to add a settings imageview would change the overall layout of main.xml which at the moment is just how i want it.
Samsung Moment :: Call Waiting - Button Shortcut To Go To The Other Call Without Having To Look At A Menu?
Nov 10, 2009Dunno if this has been covered and maybe this is a stupid question. I have not had the phone long enough to have much call waiting experiences but the times I did, I noticed I had to press menu and then go thru a menu to "click over" to the other call. This is g=fine and dandy from the comfort of your couch but is not advisable if you are driving a car. Is there a one button shortcut to go to the other call without having to look at a menu?

View 9 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Create A Soft Home - Back - Menu Button
Nov 9, 2009I am working on a device that does not have a hardware Home, Back or Menu button. I am trying to create a soft keyboard with only these three keys but I have not been able to get it working. Does anyone have any insight into my problem?
I first looked into injecting keypresses into a WindowManager but this functionality seems to have been removed.
I then looked at creating a custom soft keyboard but that will not work either. Custom soft keyboards only inject their input into the text fields they are attached to. I can't send a Home, Back or Menu keypress to the Android system.
I finally got the Home button working by using this intent to tell Android to go to the Home screen: Intent HomeIntent = new Intent(); HomeIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN); HomeIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
Unfortunately, I have not found an Intent to send for Menu and Back.
HTC Incredible :: Home/Menu/Back/Search Button Backlight
May 1, 2010Does anyone have a problem with the backlight on the Home/Menu/Back/seach buttons. On my Incredible sometimes they come on when I bring it out of sleep and stay on. Other times they don't come on at all. Sometimes they just come on in the middle of doing something on the phone.
Have added some apps from the market but can't remember if it was like this from the start. Did a reboot and battery pull but it's still occuring.
I have also had a couple phantom reboots when in sleep mode so not sure if it's related.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Need Keyboard Button Hold App
Apr 2, 2010I'm not even sure what to call this thread, so I had a hard time searching the market and threads here for what I need. Back when I had my Treo 650, i had a program on it that would allow me to hold a keyboard button down, and instead of repeating the key over and over, it would cycle through the lowercase letter to the uppercase letter, to the symbol on that key. I'm looking for something similar for my Droid's physical keyboard. Basically, I want to be able to be typing along, and if I press the "G" key get a "g", if I hold it for 600ms get a "G", and if I hold it for 1200ms get a "%". Obviously the hold times should be adjustable. Any ideas if an app like this exists?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSprint HTC Hero :: On Home Screen Long Press Menu Key Function?
Nov 15, 2009I tried searching for this, to no avail, but here is the situation. I was on my main Home screen and just trying to figure stuff out and when I long press the menu key it brings up the onscreen keyboard. I figured it was for contact search or something, but it did nothing when I typed...or so I thought. Now everytime I back out to the Home screen a little transparent "window" displays with letters i first typed. I cant type new letters to display or even use the backspace key to erase. Any one know what Im talking about?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHTC Hero :: Default App For Home Button Not Retained Properly
Aug 7, 2009Wotcher all, I've had my HTC "Hero" (daft name) for about a week now and since the first few days after I'd installed a few apps, when I long-press the Home screen button, the list of last-run apps appears as expected, however the TouchFlo app (or the Home app if I'm experimenting with stock android) also appear in this list. The next time I use the Home button it gives me the choice of using Home or TouchFlo and setting one of them as the default. I hit the "use as default" button and hit TouchFlo and all is well again. However as soon as I use a long-press of the Home button again, the phone forgets the default setting and reverts to asking me which one of Home or TouchFlo I want to use as the default action for Home button presses.Does anyone know a fix for this? I've gone into App Manager and unset all the defaults, but that's had no effect. I am living with it by just not using the long-press of the Home key, as long as I avoid that the phone remembers to use TouchFlow as the default action for Home presses. I've also tried switching to using the stock Android Home app instead of HTC's but still get the phone forgetting the default when I use the long-press of Home.
