Hi all.
I have various games that need more hardware buttons than the athena has.
Is there any way of using the keyboard as extra hardware buttons through add on software or mapping of some kind? (I really miss worms!).
Thanks in advance.
Sean
I was able to map some keyboard keys using AE Button. Some buttons map ok and others yield unpredictible results.
I'm not using AE Button for games but I can bring up Agenda Fusion with no problem using the "OK" Button
Hello,
since yesterday I am a proud owner of the x1i (from tmobile in germany).
Some months ago in pre-reviews there was a hw button on the left side and as far as I understand it was written that it is possible to configure the functionality to it (like screen rotating).
But know, I see that there is no button on the left side, there is just a small sent with the size of a hw button
Because I have installed the touch flow 3d I does currently not need the panels. So my idea is to configure the panel button to rotate the screen.
But I was disappointed because it is only allowed to configure both softkeys but I want to use them for left/right menu usage.
So my question:
It is possible (patch, registry tweak) to configure the other hardware buttons like:
- Panel
- Camera
- Hang up button
Normal press / long press (hold) to other thinks like:
- Screen rotating?
- etc.?
any idea?
best regards,
stefan
Hi stefan,
a lot of people are truying, but up to now without success, as I can read.
I too miss more buttons, but knew this before buying. I have my own WAD2-UI and this is compensating this with full finger touch possibilities.
I have got another question. Is it possible to key map the qwerty keyboard? for example take a qwerty keyboard and make it qwertz and perhaps change special characters and replace them with special characters of your "national" keyboard?
I found a solution in an other thread:

There is a link to aebplus program, with this program you can configure every hardware button how you like and it can do even more, you can configure up to 4 functions on one hardware button:
- Simple press
- 2 pressed
- 3 presses
- long press

Best regards,

Where have you read? Do tell.
AEBPlus Work Perfectly
I've tried and AEBPlus work on my Xperia perfectly just like in Touch Pro. Single, double, triple and long press all work flawlessly. Going to buy this wonderful app now
And somewhere else the author of aebutton plus explaind why he cannot access the "Panel" Button. He was saying that this dedicated Panel button is to deep integrated into the system on "driver" level (if I remember correctly).

has anyone found some software to edit the softkeys ? i'd rather not have to edit the registry ...
i appear to have different entries for my softkeys in my standard windows today screen and also in my tf3d home screen, none of which i seem to be able to update.
AE Button Plus
AE Button Plus works just fine on the X1.
The 'dent' you mention on the side, as far as I can tell is purely a finger rest for when you are using the camera.
The HTC TyTN II had a button on the side that you could push to take pictures. The HTC Touch Pro2, however, does not have this. It has a Push-to-talk button, however, that I'd like to remap to be a camera button. I've never used Push-to-talk - neither on this phone or my old HTC TyTN II - so it's not as if it's a feature that's going to be missed.
Any ideas as to how I might go about doing this?
On my Tilt2 its in ...... Settings/Personal/Buttons
You could always find AE button plus and it will do what you need

And take a look at this thread (stickied) Software worth installing
Hi everybody,
I've been digging into a lot of forums without clear answers and you may be of some help:
I've changed the digitizer of my Omnia I8000 running under W6.5 and everything was ok except that I damaged the ribbon cable for the keypad and the camera buttons. I was so close...
Now I do not have access to the camera buttons and can't enjoy my new scratchfree screen with homemade photos...
I've ordered a new one but in case i can't fix it I was wandering if there's a way to remap this button to the cube button for exemple.
Hbutton or aeplus is of no use, these hardware buttons are low level linked to the cam app.
I can launch cam application but when in camera mode i have no way to take the picture. Remapping the cube button to the cam app works by launching it but when in cam mode, the cube button don't trigger the picture.
I did'nt find where the low level hardware keys are link to the cam app.
Even if it means cooking a special rom i don't care, I can live without the cube button.
Any help appreciated
Eric

I think you should try an app called AE Button Plus v2.6.6.1.
sorry. I could not attach the file so please try google it.
Oh hai der. So I was wondering if it was possible to use the camera button for games. if I could use it in games, it would make the controls much better. I would be able to use it in FPS games which would make the experience MUCH better. Even though I know there is an app called buttonremaper, that doesnt work for games because you can only remap the button to android os buttons (home, search, menu etc.). Im looking for some app that can trigger and button on the screen when pressing the camera button, example: while camera button is held down half way trigger the pixel 600x150 on the screen. Thanks for the help.
No one knows how this is possible?
