Does anyone know how to intercept the genius button on the new MyTouch 4g by HTC? Is it somehow hard wired to the kernel?
I looked at logCat, and I see that if uses the following intent:
INFO/ActivityManager(1309): Starting activity: Intent { flg=0x10000000 cmp=com.nuance.android.vsuite.vsuiteapp/.VSuiteStartSession }
UPDATE:
I’ve seen another app disable the genius button on non-rooted phones, so it seems possible.
To answer my own question, this has been done with a guide on XDA. You will have to Root the phone. I don’t know of a non-root solution.
Here’s the link to the guide:
