Many people have been asking for this, so here it is. Thanks to "tbriden" for his info on this mod. As with many of my mods, This is currently for deodex'ed roms.
FROM RUNANDHIDES OP ABOUT THIS MOD
NEW!! for Viper 1.2.1 longpress home =menu, recent app = menu, volume up/down = wake device, half press camera button = search/voice search and includes Vinchenzop's APM
I've been trying to integrate these mods and even using them as standalone and my phone seems to be kind of retarded when it comes to them.
For instance, the advanced power menu mod doesn't work on my phone. Modding it myself or using your mod produces the same result: Holding down the power button to bring up the menu results in a soft-reset back to boot animation, every single time. Wiping either dalvik or cache has no effect. Even hard resetting has no effect. I'm hoping that it's because I've removed so many files in my attempts at a "Senseless" ROM that one of them may be reliant on this mod, and not my phone just being a strange lemon of sorts. Even the modding of framework-res took a LOT of work on my part because every single one of runandhide05's mods to it resulted in bootloops.

WTF?
Am I the ONLY one here? >
Use my framework-res.apk. The reason you're getting a soft reset is because its lookin for icons/layouts that aren't there. And before you notice...yes the files are improperly labeled, but that was just my quick way to get it to show right in the menu

Wait wait wait......so the APM relies on the framework-res.apk? How interesting! that would make sense as to why it does soft-reset on me, as I didn't even try using another one. Every framework-res I've used just boot loops on me. I had to go through some pretty terrible crap to get a framework-res mod. runandhide05's removed the signatures, which is probably the first reason why mine would bootloop, so I added that back in and it still bootlooped. So then I took a stock framework-res and copied the resources.arsc over and that worked, BUT the notification bar became double the size. Every single technique I knew to decompile and recompile resulted in boot loops. I finally got it working with mine&runandhide05's mods, but the file I produced is closer to the stock in file size: 18MB vs 13MB (runandhide05s).
I will give your framework-res a shot and if it works, you'll have to let me know what you're using to decompile/recompile.

Its a f'in headache man, I do all my android modding on linux...but since ICS, I've got to decompile apks on my windows machine (which i am unfamiliar with) and then move them back to my linux machine for any smali edits.
I followed fernando sor's tutorial, to an extent to get a damn framework-res to compile.
Edit: You won't be able to decompile then recompile though...pm me your gmail
Thanx allot for the mod! are there other options in the works like using the camera button to ? That was my favorite because I like the volume buttons used for the "select track while screen off" mod.
Can you add menu remap and long press home to this mod please ... I tried Run's newest mod and it all works except the vol wake so I'm currently using his mod that has LPH, Menu Remap and your APM which works great but I really miss vol wake ... I don't much care about the half press camera but others might ... It not just me, I posted in Run's thread and vol wake being broken was confirmed
Fyi, in his mod the vol wake works but only if you hit a vol key quickly after turning the screen off with pwr button and is repeatable ... If u wait more than 30 secs or so then a vol key will no longer wake the phone and u have to use the pwr button which pretty much renders the vol wake useless ... don't know if that info will help but wanted to fully explain
I'll see if me rebuilding it will yield any different results, but I don't believe it will change anything.
Are u going to rebuild/check Run's mod or just build into this mod? Either way thanks! ... And if u need me to test it or when ur done just let me know
