I want to share some good gestures to use with activator. Post if you have any good/clever ones to share.

Some of mine:
Short hold on volume keys to go forward/back in music
Press and hold right status bar to activate Google voice search
Long press home to pause music
Quick press home at lock screen to unlock
Triple press home for siri

I try to keep mine as stock as I can, with some exceptions.

Short hold on volume keys to go forward/back in music (same as yours, but I installed a tweak for this which also pauses music when you press both buttons together).

Anywhere:
Tap Left Status Bar: Callbar
Tap Right Status Bar: Quick Compose, BiteSMS
Hold Left Status Bar: Toggle Hands Free Mode
Hold Right Status Bar: Go to first Homescreen
Triple Press Home Button (Camera)
Long Press Home Button: Spring2Flash
Swipe up from Bottom Right of Screen: Home button, as a backup to my Home button should it ever fail.

LockScreen/Homescreen:
Press Home Button: Toggle Lock/Unlock
Double Press Home Button: SIRI.

Lockscreen Only:
Home Button Short Hold: Music Controls

Homescreen Only:
Tap and Hold Status Bar Center: App Switcher

I have completely removed the slider on the lockscreen and the camera grabber so this is why I use my home button to toggle lock/unlock.

It's still extremely relevant and full of actions. And by your post it appears you didn't even go to the last page. The last post in that thread is from February of this year.
