Q: Any way to create custom keyboard shortcuts? - Acer Iconia A500

Hi,
Does anyone know if we are able to create custom keyboard shortcuts with the a500 if we have connected the device to a USB keyboard? For example, win+f1 and win+f2 could be volume toggles.
Also, does anyone know if there are any ROMS or apps for the a500 that support side-by-side window placements?
Thanks!

Nexus 7 Dock question

Hello,
I have a silly question, recently changed the dpi setting to 160 in order to utilize the tablet mode and I was wondering if there was an option to add the arrow function on the dock like what is currently used in the samsung galaxy tablet. I like the idea of having everything integrated into the dock section Or if someone knows an alternative method it would be appreciated as well.
Thanks

Can you post some FAQ's and all
HTC One Illusion Rom FAQs
How do I enable HALO?
Go into settings. Under Illusion System Settings, select interface. You will find Halo Options. Here you can turn on halo, and tweak the way Halo works.
Where is my Data toggle in the notification pane quick settings panel?
As of right now, the only way to toggle data is through the Data Usage menu in settings. A fix is being worked on for this. I believe the problem exists in quite a few ROMS for the One.
Why isn't my NFC working?
Don't worry, all you need to do is flash the file at the bottom of this post title NFC Fix. This fix was pointed out by @Pony Express.
How do I enable/Disable CRT animations?
CRT off animation can be toggled under Illusion System Settings>Display
How do I access Google Now?
On the HTC One, the HTC logo is NOT a button. However, in the Illusion ROM (and some other ones), the strip above the logo has been modded to work as a button. Long pressing that stip will give you instant access to Now
Are there any other Bugs I should be aware of?
Not sure if it is mac only, or whether this will occur on PC as well, but if you connect as MTP, mac does not recognize it. ADB and PTP work fine. It is only MTP where this issue occurs. At this point, I feel the issue is with Macs being unable to recognize the MTP protocol. I was able to work it on a PC.

If Anyone has Feature Requests, post them HERE. NOT in the Dev thread. The Dev thread is really only for dev issues.
I have 3 major bugs/issues I would love to see sorted out.
1. Halo bubble stays at the edge of screen - insanely irritating
2. The Camera is... uhhhm. not as good as the Sense Camera. Any way to port Zoe? or even just the lowlight image processing?
3. I actually think this is how Android lockscreen widget was designed, but by default DashClock only displays clock. I have to expand it to show other info. Is there any possibility for permanently expanded lockscreen widget?
Annnd, A feature Request: Would it be, in any way, possible to port Slims hardware button rebinding feature? I would love to have long press back as multitask, long press home for settings, and swipe up on home for Search...
Also, has anybody with At&t tried NFC fix? Does it work? I flashed it, but no way to test until I go back to school in september (all my NFC tags are in my lockers, and I use it for Science lab access)

Is there any possibilities that ROM devs would have an option in expanded desktop?

Hi,
I am currently on CM 11 - M1. I like the rom but something i missed even on other roms when expanding the desktop on full screen, it's the pie controls. Is there any options that ROM developers would implement a selection of choices between "PIE Controls" and "Immersive Mode" when expanded desktop is enabled? I know there is alternative option like editing build.prop and having an LMT or other rom has navbar height customizations. But i think this would be nice to other people seeing this options on their favorite ROMs.
Regards,

[Q] Custom ROM with soft keys rotation

Hi there,
I have tried Cyanogenmod and haven't been able to rotate the soft keys into landscape mode (they stick to the same place as portrait). With this, even in expanded desktop mode, many apps are not in full screen. So is there a custom ROM which allows the rotation, just like the stock rom does? Or any app perhaps.
Cheers.

Help me back into a Priv....

I bought the Priv when it first came out and quickly returned it because it couldn't do something I absolutely needed... so I went back to my Samsung device.
Now with 6.0.1 out there, I wanted to know...
Can anyone confirm if you can link a key press to the Invert Color quick setting?
I am visually impaired and need a quick way to Invert Colors with a hardware button. I know the Invert Colors function is available from the Notification menu - this doesn't work for me as it's not quick enough and requires the user to see the screen to trigger the function. If I can map it to a key press like I do on Samsung devices, I'll go back to the Priv in a heartbeat.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hey guys I know it's a pain, but can anyone please check this out for me? I really don't want to have to buy a Priv just to see if this will work for me again.
I just need to confirm that you can long-press a key on the QWERTY keyboard and associate it with the Invert Colors toggle...
Hey,
so there are a few things here.
First: You would need to use the bb launcher. Third party launchers dont seem so support such hotkeys.
Second: It seems like you need a third party app to toggle the invert colors. I couldnt find a way to bind invert colors from the predefined bb launcher hotkey options.
I guess it's possible but it doesnt seem to be comfortable to setup.

Thank you .K' - that's a huge a help.
Without root, I've never been able to get a third party app to toggle invert colors with a hardware key. And because I can't root a Priv, and it doesn't seem possible with the BB launcher, I think I'm out of luck.
I really appreciate you checking into that for me!
