Standard disclaimer: I'm not responsible for anything this may do, perform at your own risk, etc,etc. In the absence of a working softkey solution, I went ahead and modded the hardware volume keys. Currently I have them remapped to Menu and Back. I tried Menu and Home, but Home doesn't work for unknown reasons. I have successfully appled and reverted the fix multiple times with these files.I've attached the modded files for people who are lazy and/or not good with shell commands and just want to have it done. These files MUST be dropped into your adb directory with adb.exe. Again, DO NOT DROP THEM INTO A SUBDIRECTORY BELOW ADB.EXE, they must be in the same directory.Feel free to try tweaking gpio-keys.kl if you want to try mapping the two volume keys to other stuff. (I would really like to see why Home doesn't work). Volume up is key 5 in the file, Volume down is key 4.So anyways, "mod_volume_keys.bat" will1) Mount system partition rw2) push over file gpio-keys.kl.menu_and_back to /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl3) Fix permissions and ownership4) Reboot deviceOnce your device reboots, you'll have the remapped keysIf you don't like the change, "revert_volume_keys.bat" will1) Mount system partition rw2) push over file gpio-keys.kl.orig to /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl3) Fix permissions and ownership4) Reboot deviceand you'll be back to your original setup.
