[CM9/AOKP] Circle Button Fix - Xperia Play Android Development

Sorry if this has been posted before and if it's in the wrong section.
Here's a quick fix which will allow you to use your circle button cm9 based roms, and where circle simply backs you out. Tested on aokp and fpse button mapping works...

To use:
Download the file onto your phone.
Using a file manager move it to system.
Set permissions as rw, r, r.
Move to the system /usr/keylayout folder.
Reboot.

Unfortunately most games use the gingerbread mappings which I have no idea about. All emulators which let you map will work.

Did it work?

AokPlay already has this built in, and also has a fix for touchpads in FPSe. xDark ICS also has same patches, but that's based on the stock ICS 4.0.3 beta.
Update your ROM's guys :silly: Or harass your ROM creator to make a patch already.

When I posted this none of the roms did, I have no experience with coding etc and this was a simple fix I found to fix my emulator problems

This fix works, but not if you have "hold back to kill" set to on. I can use the circle button, but holding it results in the application being killed just as holding back would. I don't know if that's possible to fix, but if it is, would be great.

This works on the emus but the problem with this fix is that it kills other games like fifa. The correct behaviour for that button is alt back. So that when it is pressed at menus it goes back. The problem is that this behaviour continues in game and does not map to the control. Very strange.

This is pretty obsolete now, use farenheiths fix - most of the up to date roms have it already.
