Can anyone that has the phone already test to see if BxActions still works?
Also are you able to test Control Mode.
Thanks! :highfive:

BxActions? (Bixby remap)
- Thread starter Xshooter726
- Start date
Doesnt work on my Note 8, button launches Bixby only no matter what I do, what service I choose and what accessibility I turn on.
I did not try control mode, just blocking.
EDIT: I finally got it working, had to clear the cache on the phone and reinstalled. Now working, but its slow to close/switch from bixby.

I just used Bixby Button Remapper by Phascinate and it it works. Also BK Disabler can disable all Bixby services so the button doesn't do anything
I used bxactions and it works perfect. I did the control mode, easy to do and works like a champ. You have to use a disabling package app and PC. You will probably want it anyways. I used BK Disabler and it worked as well. Couldn't get the other apps to work very well, so I recommend those the most. No root needed and no hiccup.
Do not install bixby remap app. It will cause hesitation of scrolling in the gallery and sometimes the settings memo.
I can't get it to work for me in control or blocking mode. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Bixby and Bixby voice are both turned off from the Bixby app itself, but no matter what I set the button to do, it just remains disabled.
BixBye has been working brilliantly for me. Worked on my S8 Plus and it works on my Note 8 even after the recent update from T-Mobile.
I have turned it off in Bixby itself, but I wanted to remap the now non-functioning button to something else.
I really wish they would just not have put this stupid button on there to begin with, but now that it's there, I'd like to make it do something. Well I guess I can use it to wake the phone up.
Just tried bixbye. Nope again. I'm on Sprint, so maybe they're just breaking everything that tries to circumvent this stupid "assistant".
You do know there is scrolling issues in gallery when bixby remapper is installed?
Once I turned bixby button off, it's like it was never there, doesn't bother me at all. What bothers me is the fact that my phone is tracking my activities, stores them and probably sends them out somewhere. Got some stupid message last night, telling me what time I usually go to sleep etc

bxActions is working on my Verizon Note 8. I did not do the control part. I only have a single push app assigned, so no lag or other issues.
Works fine on mine as well... 1 press = Google Assistant, 2 press = camera launch, long press = flashlight.
BxActions working fine with Control Mode, no lag or stutter in gallery.
1 click Assistant, 2 clicks toggle auto rotate, long press flashlight.

Your power button is already set to open the camera if you double press it. At least mine was.
I have it installed and followed the directions for the control mode but it isnt working for me. In fact, long pressing the button still brings up bixby.
did anyone have windows defender say that the activatecontrolmode.exe is a trojan.
yes, because it auto inputs ABD commands to your terminal to enable permissions.
Just disable defender while doing the process. I'm using bxActions - Control Mode and i'm loving it.
Does anyone know how to remove the activation of bixby when you longpress? I still get it, and don't know what package to disable to get rid of it. I have tried disabling bixby voice, but that just disables the button completely.
Under Android 9 Beta the Bixby Button only can be deactivated. No remapping is possible.
