[MOD][MAGISK] Mi AI Button Remapper

[Serbinhio]

Description:
This module remaps the functionality of the AI button. There are several options available until now but with your help and testing we can enrich the functionality.

Requirements:
- Magisk Installed

Installation:
- Flash in Magisk or TWRP
- If you want to reassign a new functionality to the button reinstall the module.

To uninstall:
- Uninstall from the modules section in Magisk Manager

Bugs
- Only single press for now! Basically this mod changes the functionality of the button so it is not recognized by the system as the AI button anymore and you cannot assign long press or double tap functions! Searching for a solution
- Maybe more

Download

Module is in testing phase. Use at your own risk.

Very nice.

Any chance of adding flashlight to the AI button functionality?

This is clicking once?

Sow the double click remains from normal settings?

You can put flashlight for "double click" or "press and hold".

google camera would be nice

I will try to find a way to toggle specific apps while remapping the button.

I think that priority is to add the double tap remapping and then I will try flashlight and google camera

Ah. I didn't see that. Thank you. I have yet to explore all of the settings.

I using single tap for music player. Working very well but when u want use double tap u can't coz music player is open immediately and second tap isn't recognised.

The problem is that remapping the single tap functionality results in miui not recognizing the button as "AI" button so it cannot perform the double and long press functions! This means that you have to use some 3rd party app to assign these functionalities

Very nice! Any way to toggle between silent/dnd modes?

Nice. Also works on my Mi MIX 3. One thing. Im running Pixel Experience GSI, and single tap works, double not (Yes i know its in beta). Also, the the fingerprint scanner thinks its a mouse pad or something. Cus if i tap the scanner it click things on screen.

+1 for Google Camera
Better to assign it for double tap. So we can set main camera on double tap power button and google camera on double tap AI button.

If you use tasker you can assign double tap, trible tap and even more. I wrote down some actions I programmed for my AI button https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78523778&postcount=38
I can share my tasker events if anyone is interested.
@Serbinhio: Does your module work if screen is off?

Thanks for your input. I mainly edit the /sdcard/Downloads/gpio-keys.kl as you describe in your post so I think that the combination of this mod and tasker is the best bet here! I have also posted in the Mi Mix 3 forum but you can include me in your post if you want and you find the mod handy, cause you do not mess up with files and editing (for new users).

For your other question Yes the button works when screen is off. For example, when I set the "Next Media" function, the song changes when I press the button even if the screen is off

Easy solution: Xposed Edge, the must have tool.. Register this hardware key in "Keys" section and easily configure tap, double tap, and long tap.. Nothing special required for this phone (Samsungs often need enablers first, then again you remap it with Edge). Even can mix with XIAOMI settings if you want. And can remap much more (volume keys, headphone insertion event and tons more). No brainer.

I'd wish Xiaomi would give us the option to just completely turn off the button :crying:

[FaserF]

Possible to add an Ring switcher (one press -> vibrate another press -> silent -> another press sound on

 

[arddy1]

Is it possible to add an option to enable/disable waking up screen when click the button? Regardless of any shortcut function..

You can always install app called Swipeup Utility from Google store and change that one tap into any app you want
