Is it possible to assign the "Sym" button to ctrl? - XPERIA X1 General

Hello,
Ive been looking all over for a way to re-map the useless "Sym" button on the xperia to a useful ctrl button, but I have found no way of doing so.
I found the program "AE Keyboard Mapper" -> http://ae.inc.ru/aekmap.php
But I couldnt get this to work either. Maby someone could help me, please
// Agaas

I've been using PQz on my Wizard to map the Win button to Ctrl. It might not be the best or the prettiest, but it gets the job done.
I have no idea how it works with WM6.1, but you could give it a shot.

Vijay555 - how to set a right SHIFT key?

Hi Vijay, I try your keypress utility on my Universal. However, have problems setting a "shift" key on the videocall hard botton. I changed the value to 16 according to the keylist. Any advice on this? Thanks.
stanip: this should be moved to the VJKeyPress thread...
VJKeypress can be used to simulate a key press, but for shift, it's like on your pc, just pressing shift and releasing. It won't do anything. I imagine what you want to do is simulate pressing and holding shift, to make CAPITALS. It doesn't do that.
I did make a set of programs to do this, pressing and holding shift, ctrl and alt, but I didn't release them because Tom Hiro's PQz came along and is an amazingly useful program. Try Tom's PQz, and if you get really stuck I'll see about releasing my app. Mine works usefully on non Universals as well, eg Magician (my main phone), but there are issues with the way the Operating System responds to having these keys held down, so it wasn't worth finishing off at the time.

Vijay, PQz is a great tool but I failed to find any feature to set a "shift" key for capital letters... Have been looking for this as I use Word quite often. The right shift key will save me the thumb stretch reaching out to the other side. Thanks.
stanip: it might be worth asking Tom to add any features you want, he's actively updating it seems!
I will look into the Shift key issue again, but I'm a bit busy on a few other projects. It might happen soon if I can get it out.

Vijay, already suggested to Tom... believe he is prioritizing it. Initially thought the keypress could solve this one faster.
It would be great if yours could help with this request.

How can I assign a custom function to Sym button?

Hi all,
I found a cab file which can be used to reassign the functionality of the Backlight Button on my universal to anything in Programs.
I was wondering if such a cab can also be made/already exists for the Sym button.. Basically what I need is a registry tweak which will make this button appear in the Start->Settings->Buttons aswell...
Coz' for someone like me, this button is a regal waste and i'd love to put it to better use..
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
mOrph

Question to PQZII users

Hi,
I'm using PQZII on my Universal since several monthes and I find it very useful for pda with keyboards...but it's not necessary to say...
I find taskbar icon useful to indicate ctl or alt pressed key. But I would change the background of that icone and turn it transparent. Then I'll see only ctl or alt when pressed and that square icon on my taskbar. I tried several habitualy used colors for icon's background (255 and so...) but none was the good one.
Any idea to help me?
Thanks for replies and ...thanks for PQZII for existing )

Can I change the IE button on keyboard also .
Maybee, have a try on it, it's a freeware. On the website of the developper, there is a small app wich can give you the code of any pushed key on the keyboard. Knowing that code, you can assign any fonction or launch program or link to a key with its code. So, maybee, it's possible...

So I suppose I don't use this software correctly. Could someone can explain me how I must the soft?
I've tried to remap the VolumeUp key by selecting "Handle by AEBPlus" "Single Press" "Volume Up". Is it the correct way to use this key in gfDoom?

Solved Morph Gear button maping Problem.

Hi,
I had problems to map hardware keys ( slider keys ) with Morph Button.
Every time I mapped a button it show the key code 229.
I read the post Key Assign Problem (Morphgear+PocketGBA) ,
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425646&highlight=morphgear ) here at XDA Dev.
It seems the HTC Touch Pro have the same Problem.
After few hours I solved the problem.
All you need to do is:
1.
- Go to button setting in Morph Gear.
- before click the assign button press and hold the Strg key
- then you can enter the hardware key you want
now you can play by holding Strg and the mapped keys
2-
- go to global menu in Morph Gear
- in the submenu Input: click Polling Method
now it works
But in Genppc 1.09 I still can not configure keys.
Hope this helps somebody
Sorry for my english

I'm sure there is a way to play without holding down the Ctrl (Strg) key all the time. I did it before I just don't know how I did it. Can somebody help me out?
Just remove eT9.
Button Mapping will work with all emulator and games now, like on my old Hermes.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
"Layout Text"="COMP IME"
"Ime File"="compime.dll"
Hope it helps.
Worked perfect! thanks a million. Thank god cause without multi-touch, mario is near impossible to play with the touch-screen!!!

What does STRG stand for?
What were the original registry values for enabling eT9? Can someone check for me, please?

I have a sprint touch pro 2 and did the above and i still can't map keys in morph gear. Can someone post the eT9 string that i deleted so i can put it back??? Also what does deleting this do???
Not working on my Sprint Touch Pro 2 either.... any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
I solved the Sprint TP2 morphgear button mapping issue. When you go to map the keys, click the little "..." to bring up the "request button to map" pop-up.
Now, click on the bottom center of the screen to bring up the keyboard. When the keyboard is up, next to that same icon is an upwards arrow. Click that and it will give you input methods. It might be on something like "Full QWERTY", but change this to "Keyboard". You should now see a virtual keyboard different from the usual one. This maps perfectly to the slide out keyboard. Use the virtual keys to do the mapping, use the slide out to play.
dont forget to set polling methot or else it wont work
srry for my english

For the record, this also works for Tilt 2 and is my preferred solution.
No need to edit registries. Also, you don't have to hold Ctrl to play nor disable eT9, which brings other problems like not being able to edit the eT9.*.txt keymapping text files.

How do you prevent the "Input Mapping" window from disappearing when you bring out the virtual keyboard? Everytime I click on the bottom center virtual keyboard button, the "Input Mapping" window disappears and then the keyboard shows up. It's like the chicken before the egg scenario!
