It works perfectly but I can only select something or slide, I can't go back. So I use left mouse button to select and right doen't work.
Is there a way to use right button to go back?

sixaxsis troubles

hi I'm new to the forum I just have a question about this application I have a samsung galaxy s2 rooted with the stock ROM, I have it all syncd up, and it is working.. the problem I have everytime I run it with an application it acts as home keys. I reconfigure and remap the buttons with in the PlayStation emulator I I am using. But still when I press any buttons on the ps3 controller its still acts as home keys.. what I mean is if I press X or star or any other button besides directional it acts as I press the HOME key on my phone but then if I use the directionals it highlights the icons on my phone. So I know it's working how do I get it to work with just the application. Sorry if this sounds really confusing trust me it is is odd

[Q] Is there an app to control my Bluetooth mouse?

Hi, I have a Bluetooth mouse that will let me assign functions to my Bluetooth mouse that I'm using with my Note 2? when I was using Alliance Rom the mouse would behave just like I wanted it to.
Right button = go back
Left button = select
wheel button press = home screen
Maybe its a TouchWiz thing but whenever I use an ASOP or AOPK Rom, I can only get the left, right and wheel button to do is "Select"
So I'm guessing I need an app to control my mouse buttons now.
Any help?
Thanks!

Voice remote with keyboard

Has anyone tried this remote?https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00U3PFUAC/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A34OAPZOHWTNSP
Does the mic work with Google now? Does the home button take you to launcher home? Can you turn your TV off and change volume,? Cheers

I've tried a few remotes with a few android boxes I've had and this one is the best I've found. I bought the one called 'Aerb' but you'll see a number of resellers on ebay selling the exact same device. It runs on 2 AAA batteries.
What I really really like is that the four coloured buttons on the bottom AND the big red power button on the
top left are learning/programmable IR blasting, so you can program them to turn your TV on/off, change inputs, increase TV volume etc. using your TV remote. The other buttons are not programmable.

This is the best remote by far I have purchased for this box. I am far away from my player right now but I will try and confirm if the mic works with it asap...

Does the home button bring you to the home screen ? And by programming the bottom color buttons to change the volume or do the actual volume buttons work? Also its to bad the buttons don't light up . Thanks that would be awesome if you could check the mic . Also are you able to like use the remote underneath a blanket or do you have to point it at the dongle?

- yes

- you program the coloured buttons on the bottom using your TV remote, so they will turn the volume on your TV up and down, NOT the vol on the android software.
Also its too bad the buttons don't light up.
- no they do not.
Thanks that would be awesome if you could check the mic .
- *** I cannot seem to get my mic working with voice search. The remote I have purchased has a microphone, but has NO microphone button to enable the mic. There are reports of users who have got their mic working. See here for a picture of a remote with a mic button (the blue one in the bottom right corner) http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=203623
Also are you able to like use the remote underneath a blanket or do you have to point it at the dongle?
- you do NOT have to point the remote at the dongle. It does not work with line of sight like IR remotes. The distance limit is about 15 metres I'd guess. Farther with better batteries
Using the stock ROM, the following keys work:
home button
play/ pause and FF RW buttons
context menu
OK and d-pad button
keyboard letters
Using stock ROM the following keys DO NOT work for me:
soft volume up/down
mute
microphone doesn't work
BACK key doesn't work (this sucks, it registers as a 'right mouse click' under stock rom - doesn't do anything, must use home key instead. it also doesn't work under lollirock either. Luckily under lollirock the soft 'recent apps, home and back' buttons are always visible, so I just use that soft back arrow on the screen.
all of the 'alt keys' on the keyboard - ie the function keys, ! mark etc. These all work fine under lollirock.
I also have a generic android box running full android 5.1 and almost all of the keys on this remote work fully with it, including the hard back key.
Let me know if you've got any other questions!

How to quickly power off Android TV Box with remote control

I bought the MX10 Android TV Box for my elderly parents and want to make it as simple as possible for them to operate. One of the things that they always have problems with is shutting the box down properly. Currently, a short press of the physical remote control power button puts the box to sleep. Is there a way to get rid of the sleep mode and just automatically fully shutdown the box anytime they press power? To currently shutdown, they need to do a long press of the power button which is then followed by a prompt asking "Do you want to shutdown" and then they have to press a couple more times to click 'OK' which is more complicated than they need it to be. The box appears to have root priveliges so is there a simple code I can add to 'build.prop' so that they can completely shutdown the box with one quick press of the remote power button (rather than it going to sleep)? I have tried 'poweroff.doubleclick=0' and that had no effect so am hoping there's some code that will work?
I gather by the lack of response that there's no way to shutdown the box with one quick press of the remote power button?
Check out my problem, I got diffrent box but still...
I bought andorid box that came with remote, power button worked, also there are buttons that can be set up for managing TV, I've set those up to...few days late only those tv buttons work, non android key is working...I go on ali express and order air mouse type remote, infra red one. Plug it in, copy code from old remote to new one, everything works just fine, power buton etc. Than I go and try old remote, go figure, he work just fine...all buttons!
It worked for few months, than the other day original mouse i broken again. only tv buttons work while air remote is all ok except power button. I've tryed everything and google everything...nothing out there...I know android box is like a phone, no power but on it so no way to turn it off completely, but both remotes manage to turn it off atleast to sleep, now non of them can...
