Hi, can anyone help with this?
Is there a way to disable/re-program the search key on a Chromebook?
My son is autistic and we use the Chromebook for his schooling using a supervised user. We use this to allow him to use specific websites only.
But he constantly presses the search key which slows everything down when we are working with him.
Thanks
How to disable the search key in ChromeOS/Chromebook
Bottom right: Settings (gear) -> Device (section) -> Keyboard Settings.
Use the pulldown menu to change or disable the functionality of the special keys. I switched it to caps lock, for example. Though here you can see it disabled:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Hi, thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, the soft button does not change.
if u can access to a registry editor just modify the values of two keys "112" and "113" on HKCU like above
and create a link to whatever u prefer

Hi, thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, I can change only the left shortcut. It does not matter what I do at the right, it never changes anything.
have checked out for shortcut to "connmgr.exe" on the right soft key and it does not function, but have no problems with others programs of system folder.
Have u tried other shortcuts on the same "right" softkey or only "connmgr"?
I have also tried Opera, and the calendar, but has not worked.
In stock Android previous to 5.0 the VPN icon appears as an annoying persistent key in the top left like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After 5.0 they moved it as a system icon to the right and it can be turned off or adjusted.
It looks like this:
It seems like in Touchwiz they never updated this and the key is still on the left. Even if you're using 5.1.1 (I assume 6.0 will be the same.)
---
2 Questions:
1) Without rooting, is there a way to remove or hide that icon?
2) Is there a way to file a bug or ticket with Samsung to let them know to fix this in the new Touchwiz? Or some other way of contacting them?
1) Long press on the notification and see if you can disable the notifications there.
2) ha Good luck with that.

It's "Android System"
Just have to live with it then.
This is too specific for googling,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you go into settings > lock screen > shortcuts
and then place flashlight as one of the shortcuts (which I recommend by the way), and lets say, place camera on the other side..
For some reason, the flashlight is (also) toggled by tap rather then swipe like the other widgets.
(same thing for the Do Not Distrub mode)
This causing a lot of accident toggles from edge palm holding and I find my flashlight on by accident multiple times..
I couldn't find any way to change the way the flashlight is toggled, swipe is perfectly fast enough for me and secure enough to avoid accidental toggles.
Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks!
I had the same issue and after the last update, it went back to swipe.

Yeah same here! thank you Samsung guys who read my posts! much appreciated!
so pretty happy with my new 10t...only thing is that the Spotify playback doesn't have scrubber option on lock screen even when i swipe down on it...tried all notification settings but to no avail...anyone got any ideas why?

also in the notification drawer, the spotify/youtube playback window is small and not expanding across as can be seen below:
https://imgur.com/a/GdabwA0
is there anyway to get it like this?

no one?
If I swipe down and expand out the quick settings I get the scrubber. This works both on the lock screen and any other screen. I have not changed any settings related to this, just works as default.

I just received my 12T Pro and have done a minimal setup. I've installed Swiftkey along with the default Gboard. There is no keyboard shortcut in the bottom right hand corner like in this example below. Does anyone know how to make it show up? There's a shortcut from the notification drawer but prefer from the bottom navigation.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Maybe your can find it here: Settings -> Accessibility -> Interaction Controls -> Accessibility -> Use Service = On
Alternatively check if there is a setting called Show keyboard button in the language and input section.
None of those options are available on my phone. I'm on MIUI 13. Does it show up for you?

Yes these options are available. I assume it depends on the Android version and the various Android interpretations. Do you have gesture navigation enabled? I'm sure it's not because of that but give it a try.
It shows up on my previous Oneplus 7T but not on the 12T Pro. Tried with and without gestures and same deal
