@blubbers do you think you can backport settings from 2.05.xxx.2 base to 1.29.xxx.11?

[MOD|1.26|1.28|1.29] Disable the annoying ICS 3-dot Menu | Aroma **May-05**

There are only two "features" of blubbers mod which is not present in the 2.05 release:
1) The system is forced to recognise the home/recent key as menu. This means you will always remove the ICS 3 dot menu (both the original HTC
bar across the bottom, but also the actual 3 dots from ICS configured apps such as Playstore, Reader, etc) and that you can now use it as a proper menu button on the Sense homescreen (Nova launcher and Apex are considered apps and therefore the built in mod works fine!).
2) You can control the stock music from the lockscreen.
Obviously it's up to blubber, but given that there are music apps which do 2) and that 1) is more then a negative than a positive, am not sure why you would want it?
Unless I'm missing something?
This is not about music app....but like you said blubbers mod has issues that it disables native ics app overflow. That is why I am suggesting backporting working mod made by HTC. Isn't it obvious that it is the only proper solution?
But nevermind...I am working on a fixes for new base so I will not have to stay on older base for long.

Blubbers is better than HTC's
Blubbers 3 dot remover was much better than what HTC has tried to do in the 2.05 base. I still get the annoying 3 dot menu in the top right on some apps and I can't access the menu on the home screen which was handy.
HTC One X ARHD 7.1.0 Stock Kernel
I don't mean the 3-dot menu in apps, that's part of the Android UI for ICS. I mean the ugly 3-dot menu bar across the bottom of the screen, which is what this mod removed. (Yes, the mod also removed the in-app 3-dot icon from some apps, but not I think by design, just due to the way Android works. But then again lots of the posts in this thread were people asking to have that icon back...
The official HTC version in the new update leaves the in-app 3-dot menu, but removes the one across the bottom of the screen.
It doesn't support pressing menu to get into Settings from the Home Screen, because that's not how HTC intend it to work. That was just a side effect of the changes blubbers made in his mod. It was a useful feature, but if it's not part of HTC's UI design for Sense, I guess it's not surprising it doesn't work.

Dude that top 3dot menu HAS to be there! It was bug in his mod that it removed it only bottom bar should disappear. HYC did it right as it should be! If you want it other way that it is considered mod and non stock behavior. I want to be stock and fully working (look at Samsung galaxy nexus that is stock android and it behaves exactly like HTC made that in New base - native ICS apps HAVE menu button. It is called action overflow and it is not bug but a feature!

No. ARHD 7.1.0 is based on 2.05 which already has similar functionality built into it.
Probably not as it's based on the specific files for the One x. However, there are manual instructions in the dev forum that explain how you can modify your build.prop to allow it - and you could then just do that manually.
Alternatively, you could look in the actual One S forum and ask someone there!

thanks man,i wait something easy.
It should work on Sense based ROMS which use version 1.26, 1.28 or 1.29 (as per the OP)
thanks bro!
Nice work @bubblers i love this mod!
it's good combination with BinDroid
long press stopped working
At first i worked but then when I put it on home=menu long press home just works as home and i dont have menu and when I put it on home=recent tasks the same long press home works as home and I dont have recent tasks
I tried doing factory reset bot it still didn't work and it works the same in Android Revolution HD that has those options in the settings.

This mod is for a different base to ARHD 7, the functionality is built in to the new base HTC firmware so the mod isn't needed.
@blubbers
any chance of having menu on LP recent instead of LP home? (just like stock)
and any progress in fixing removed action overflow?

131This modification will give you the full resolution for all non-ICS apps. I guess many of you have been waiting for this.
The Window-Switcher Key (right one) will be remapped to the Menu button. This key will be usable system-wide!
**update** The recent app's key is remapped to long-pressing home
**update #2** I've made a cleaner removal of the 3-dot menu;
-> the screen-overlay is now fully usable
-> the keyboard has the arrow-keys
-> no more changes to SystemUI.apk, the zip includes the stock version now
**update #3** by popular request of the i-want-to-long press-home-as-menu fanboys, i've made a zip, fullscreen-v2-lp_home_menu.zip
it contains stock qwerty.kl & stock SystemUI.apk
**update #4** support for 1.28.401.9
**update #5** Added Aroma installer
**update #6** support for 1.29.401.7
**update #7** fixed the arrow keys I've broken in update #5, all versions
Root is required, duh
Use on deodexed ROM's based on 1.26.x/1.28.x/1.29.x only(tested on 1.26.401.2 & 1.28.401.9 & 1.29.401.7)
Use the attached aroma installer (all versions included, 1.26/1.28/1.29/stock) with CWM recovery
There are some re-odexed zip's here (I do not/will not provide odexed versions): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25533464&postcount=373 & http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25063642&postcount=27923Ive made CWM packages for easy installation.
rev1--- without home long-press to launch recent apps
rev2--- with home long-press to launch recent apps
rev2-1- with home long-press to launch recent apps (compatibility fix attempt)
ver2--- code cleanup + fullscreen overlay usable + kboard arrow key
@blubbers
now we need long-press APP_SWITCH or BACK button assign to SEARCH function12I managed to reodex the android.policy.jar successfully
why? to use this awesome mod with stock rom!
so now the mod is usable on stock roms without using a custom or deodexed rom
i added a revert to stock zip in case anything goes wrong
just flash with CWM but remember, only with odex stock rom!
if you don't know what odex means or not use a custom rom, this is the version for you!
edit: download should be fixed! recent version coming, had the wrong zip file12
here you go
Version a - Recent key mapped to menu, and long press home mapped to app switch
version b - Recent key standard, and long press home mapped to menu
and a back to stock file
all flashable from CWM! tested by me on 1.29.401.7
