Hi folks,

since it seems that there is the 1st custom rom with working one-key button and the stock function of it is rather useless, i wonder if it might be 1 day remapable. If it is, what would u like to do it?
Lets gather some ideas here. Preferably toggable functions.


I would like to see a keylock function. Prevents any user input, also while screen is on.

Maybe something like the opposite of the stock function. A performance booster by tuning govenor settings in cost of battery.

Toggle one of the toggable system settings (bluetooth, w-lan, NFC etc...)



I can also imagine non toggable functions, if the changing of the two states (down to up and up to down) is seperatly assignable.
eg: moving down to up would launch an app, an activity or a shortcut and moving up to down would kill the foreground app or a given app or would bring u back to homescreen.



Please share ur thoughts.



Best regards, Chillmann

To me, the most useful one would be the torch.
It's perfect for a simple on/off switch and it's the one I happen to be in need of activating quickly without unlocking the phone

Would be best to be programmable. But since this is an opinion about what would suit best.. i think the power save option should be programmable.. like Efficiency, Power Save, ect.. to the key switch. But a multi function option to that key would be nice.

Did any1 try exposed edge along with highwaystar's build?

At least... since tasker can get power save mode status, we can already use it to tweak ps mode a little bit by reducing screen timeout, turn off whatever could be on like wifi, bluthooth and so on or even load a kernel auditor profile... Not bad so far...

Tried it myself and its not recognizing an event while using powersave key.
And i can confirm a bug, mentioned somewhere else, that locking screen while ps-mode enabled turns screen back on and ps-mode off.
