Is any useful way to remap the Green and Red Phone button and the volume slider button? I mean for launch application or any function. Thanx.
There are some such programs for volume slider.
The most simple I prefer is attached here.
Just put it to the \Windows\Startup folder. It just "unbind" slider but not remaps it to another buttons. This will allow to use slider as F6/F7 buttons in programs able to hook them e.g. Haali Reader...
Thanx
It seems to be ok but where did you attach it? On my MDA is no offered file to download at this time. ThankU.
I've got it
Ok. Now is the sheet with uploaded file appeared. I've got it and extracted it. After i run the *.exe file it does nothing. Why?
because it should do nothing
This utility just frees slider buttons from default binding to volume control.
If you have an application that understands F6/F7 hardware key pressings (slider up/slider down) you may bind these key in the program.
As for me - I use them to scroll text up and down in Haali Reader text reader program.
But (as I said above) there are another programs to use slider up/down control. Unfortunately I don't remeber where I saw these utilities - but they really exists
And, as far as I'm back to the Andes from (Blue Angel) - I think I will write another one specially for Himalaya/Andes.
Ok, let's wait some days. If there are any results - I'll post the report here
P.S.: BlueAngel is the best HW keys equipped device i've ever saw But...
Thanx once again
Thank you 4 ur help. Now i understand that. And what about the Phone buttons? Any ideas? Ex.I want to use red button as Ok/Close simulation. Any ideas how to do that? Thanks.
Nobody unmaps phone buttons. It is possible but unresonable because of HTC is a phone device also. But I'll implement this feature too.
OK
I will wait for it.
The very first (and buggy) try of HW remapping utility is done. The application setup is available HERE
After installing .CAB file go to Start -> Settings -> Buttons and see the changes...
DO NOT INSTALL THIS APPLICATION ON BLUE ANGEL!!!
It will hide four lower hardware buttons until hard reset!
1. This app was tested on Andes with WM2003se, but should work on Himalaya/Magican with WM2003 and above
2. You will lose the possibility to use hardware key mapping in other applications forl remapped buttons. I need to re-grab buttons from time to time because the system tries to thieve them from me
3. Currently I don't now how to emulate green and reed buttons functionality after unbinding them from the system.
4. I can count any number of button pressings (3,4,5...), but -
5. WinCE reserve codes for only 15 hardware buttons (40C1..40CF)
There are some ideas for future improvement. But it would be nice to know your thoughts.
Just to "stimulate": I can create settings screen during setup to allow flexible configuration where you will
- choose which buttons to handle and how many key pressings to detect;
- choose option to unbind and/or re-map volume and phone buttons
- ???
And let me take a time-brake for 2 days before next programming session
The utility is ready. It allows you to:
remap each standard hardware button to 2 or 3 "virtual", simulated via double or triple clicks;
use volume slider to simulate Up/Down direction keys or create additional "virtual" hardware buttons;
remap Red and Green phone buttons to 1,2 or 3 hardware buttons each.
In a result you may create up to 15 hardware buttons (system limit)
Just install program and check Start -> Settings -> Buttons.
Here is Oficial AEBPlus home page, full desktop-based setup (~27K) and Direct link to CAB file (~30K)
Well done!
Excellent software! Thank you once again for your work. Works very very well!
man this is great really like it
works perfect :lol:
Seems to work great. Haven't had it running long enough to see if the camera button will get stolen back (big problem for me on XDA IIi), but being able to map the volume is great.
In the next version any chance of adding an <enter> option like Vito Button Mapper which I think just sends a <carriage return> to select whatever is highlighted.
Is "<Ok/Close>" option in button settings applet not the same?
NO, <OK/Close> generally tends to close the current window rather than selecting whatever is highlighted.
Also whatever application keeps on stealing back the camera button is still doing it. I don't know if it is part of the UK O2 customisations or the core PocketPC Rom, but eventually whatever function is mapped to the Camera button gets re-mapped back to the camera. This also happened to me with the standard button mapper and Vito button manager. It's a little annoying since the camera button is the most usefully positioned, and it is also easily knocked, starting the camera at awkward times.
Ok, I'll add this option for camera button (a bit later, in a case other suggestions arrives).
As for the re-hooking button by camera application: AEBPlus initializes all of the buttons from time to time. Currently this take place every 30 seconds. So if you will wait a bit - all buttons should be re-grabbed again
This does not seem to help because whatever application that is resetting the camera does it in the same place as you are storing the button mappings. When I go into the Buttons Setup it will now say that the Camera button is mapped to the Camera.
Yes,I see... It looks like Camera application is a pushy application . The solution is to remap "normal" Camera HW button to 3 press instead of one, but I don't like this.
Anyway - utility was released.
New features: added option to emulate Enter key with Camera button.
Hi AE, your utility is great. It is very useful but SIMPLE and SMALL.
I used it instead of other button mapper software.
There're some issues need tobe improved:
1) Mapping "Green" and "Red" button:
Enable mapping when they're iddle only (phone function does not work).
E.g: I'd like using Red button to close running app. But in phone function, Red button is still used to hang-up the phone as original its function. Anytime I have a phone call, I can use Red button to cancel a outgoing/incoming call.
You can refer the program of mamaich in this web site.
2) Single press is too low:
I press a key one time and wait 5 secs or more until it works. It's too slow. Can you improve? Double-press is OK.
3) Press n hold:
Can you add "single press n hold" for all hardware-keys? I think "single press n hold (after 3-3.5 secs)" is more convenient than "double press" or "tribble press". Do you think so?
Hi AE, very usefull application! Is there any way that we can have an options screen, where we can change the key options we get after installing the app? That would be easier to edit our preferences if we want to make changes to our initial choices. Furthermore I added a Mortbutton to one of your simulated hard keys. Each Mortbutton can show a list of 12 apps for a buttonpress. That means That I can now bind more than 60 apps to the buttons in total! Very good for one-handed use of my Magician, thanks!
Hey guys... before I begin, heres what I have installed.
tcmp with various reg edits
Wisbar Advance2
Wisbar Advance Desktop
Null Keyboard
Here are my questions.
1. the volume slider no longer adjusts the system volume at the today screen. how can I fix this?
2. I was looking to have a big icon/object for the "Lock" function. How can I do that using Wisbar?
3. TCMP has enabled a secondary function for the 2 buttons below the screen--the left one for the "start" menu, and the right one for "close". After installing Wisbar, the right button still closes, but then after closing, it brings up the contact list, which is the primary function of that button (with a short press). How can I undo that?
4. The notification screen that pops up when I get a text msg, etc, is gone!(ever since Wisbar) I just see the icon on the top, but I want that screen back! how can I do that?
5. What is a good program to manually assign all buttons on the system to whatever function I want? (i.e. lock, changing the 2 buttons function, etc.)
Any help would be great!.
On my Evo LTE running CM10 the recent apps button on short press opens settings and long press opens recent apps. I like this function vs having to have a shortcut on the desktop or getting to it from notifications. On most newer phones/tablets running ICS/JB there are mods that remap this function but I've not seen this anywhere for the Nexus. I"m running stock but rooted and would prefer to stay that way if i can. Does anyone either know how to do it or if there's a mod floating around that i was unable to find using "search"?
I would also love to customize what app is opened when sliding up from the soft keys, if that's related.

No that's not exactly what i'm talking about but i would like to do that as well. If i understand correctly if you hold any of the software key/button (IE back, home, or recent apps) and slide your finger up there is a dotted circle with google search button at the top. If i could place the settings app there that would get me by. As for now when i hit the recent apps button i would prefer that to be the settings button or being able to long press the button to open settings. I think what i want is a limitation of the launcher but who knows. Anyone who does have any idea how to do this please let me know. I did attempt to edit the keys file in system/usr/keylayout by trying to add an extra key for settings but it didn't work.
So i mainly bought my SM-p580 tablet for drawing on it but im running on a recurrent problem.
When i lay my arm to rest so i can draw i keep pressing the BACK hardware key or the recent apps key and its very uncomfortable
Im already using All in one Gestures but still i keep pushing it even with delay time so i was looking for an app that may completely disable the buttons according to a configuration that may vary for each app.
Is this possible or available?
Same here. Did you find any solution yet? Currently I'm using button mapper to disable multiwindows

So you want to just use soft keys? If so, there is a code for that when you search up soft keys enable on https://www.google.com
The code (you will need root access and have ES File Explorer and go to ./system/build.prop) to enable Lollipop theme soft keys is qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 .
To disable the capacitative keys (you will need root access and have ES File Explorer and go to ./system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl) is to open the sec_touckey.kl file and put a # symbol before both of the following lines:
key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
(Remember you have to find these two lines of codes and put the # so it can disable it)
Close and save changes.
If you have a device with capacitative keys and have lights behind them, in order to disable them go to Settings > Buttons > Backlight
and remove the tick from "Illuminate Buttons"
Reboot and I hope it worked!
Another option that i use is to turn the tablet 180 degrees so that the buttons are now on the top (with screen rotation on).

hey. maybe coming late but i got a simple solution. Download Game launcher, Game tuner and Game optimizing service newest versions from ap k mi rror. Now enable game launcher and tools under options, add an app to game launcher and start it from there. while in the app there will be a very small red button. press it and press disable hardwarekeys

Is it automatically enabled soft key buttons? If not only home button is working for the app?
Thanks

Hi, I can't seems to make game launcher work, game tuner is running fine but game launcher still need to download game tuner, what version do you use ?
Hi.
Is there any way to do this?
Apparently Call of Duty: Mobile requires a Dual Shock 4 or Xbox One controller in order to work. This defeats the purpose of playing it on a Switch. Which I'm ashamed to say, is a big reason I bought and installed Android on my Switch. To play CoD:M on it during down-time at work (I work night-shifts).
I was wondering, since this is a custom FW anyway, is there any way to trick it into thinking the Joy-Con controllers are actually Xbox One controllers? So it would be registered as such in Android as a whole? The Screenshot-button could be the Xbox-button. Many, if not most/all games with controller support, support Xbox One controllers. I see no downside to that.
If not, is there any working overlay program out there? I tried Mantis Gamepad Pro. l connected it to my PC and activated it. It found the Joy-Cons. I added CoD:M as a game. Started it.
Game started, I went into Practice Room in order to set up my overlay.
There's a semi-transparent green overlay-button in the top left corner, so I press it and try and add a button, and get told to "Press a Button". So I physically press a button on my Joy-Con, and that button pops up as a Virtual Button. I drag the VB over the icon on the screen indicating the action it does (let's say, physical button = RT, VB = dragged over Shoot-icon). Now this is working great, I'm placing the analog sticks, pushing all the buttons and placing them where I want them. It registers my buttons.
But when I close the settings by pressing the semi-transparent icon in the top left corner of my screen (the green icon is still there, but the button layout disappears) and actually try and PLAY the game, none of the buttons are registered when I press them. Nothing happens.
It's like.. so close, yet so far!
I think I have all the settings correct, and I've enabled the app to be on top of other applications or whatever.
If anyone has ANY idea how I can get CoD:M working on my Switch with lineage-17.1-20210510-UNOFFICIAL-foster_tab-signed, that would be awesome!
Thanks for ANY response! Anything helps!
