Mapping softkeys to keyboard - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I have an mk808b htpc stick, and a wireless mini keyboard & mouse combo. Is there any app out there that will let me map physical keys to soft keys\shortcuts?
Meaning, my f1 key can be the home button, f2 the back button etc...and if i want to launch settings I can use f7.. I have done multiple searches, but I must be doing it wrong, because all I find is talk about modifying IME keyboard for custom icons etc.
Thanks,
M

[Q] Remap Keys Bluetooth Keyboard

I just got my bluetooth keyboard with built in mouse today and got it to connect. The mouse doesn't work but the keyboard does. Sadly there is no menu or back button on the keyboard. Escape won't work to go back and I would like to use control for menu if possible. Also I can use the FN key for special characters but not to change volume. My question is does anyone know how to remap these buttons?
Anyone? 10char
anyone? just want to set esc as back, ctrl as menu and something as search
Ok so keys work on CM 6.1. No menu button though but built in mouse works along with FN/VOL keys.

[Q] Remap bluetooth keyboard keys

I have the zaggfolio case and keyboard. I was wondering is there anyway to edit the functions of the keyboard. For example: change the ctrl key to a shortcut for my browser or if i long press the home but recents will show. thanks
Bumping you because I want to do the same thing for the opposite reason: My keyboard Esc key is interpreted as a local 'Back' press, and Ctrl goes I don't know where. I want it to stop modifying these keys and send them through ConnectBot instead.

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

Hardware keyboard/mouse custom layouts/shortcuts

Hi.
I'm using an Samsung Galaxy Note 12.2 (with ResurrectionRemix 5.8.5 ROM / Android 7.1.2) with an "Lenovo Compact Bluetooth Keyboard with Trackpoint". There are a few problems I need your help for:
1. The mouse keys are all treated as left click. I know there is no really right-click in android. But it would be fine to have custom actions on right-click and no click action at the scroll button. If you know the Lenovo/IBM Trackpoint you know it's great for scrolling. At the moment every click on the scroll button is treated as a normal click. This behavior can be very annoying.
2. Androids default keyboard shortcuts are not easy to handle. Search key (F10) + Backspace is hard to hit without looking at the keyboard. Is there a way to customize the shortcuts?
