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

Hello,
Does someone know a solution for mapping the hardware buttton that normaly launch internet explorer? I would like to use it for X/closing cause I'm already tired to go on the upper side of the screen. i.e. when you put a new meeting with the keyboard, it is hard to go to the cross (up and right) for "saving" the new meeting.
I just bought this phone cause it has a good harware keyboard, but it's not important for me to have a direct access to internet explorer.
Thanks for your replies!!

Which button are you talking about?
I use AE Button to assign the Voice Recorder button to the OK/Close function and it works brilliantly. You can assign single press, long press and double press to different functions. It's a great little app that takes up very little system resources.
I'd still like to know which button is the Internet Explorer button because I didn't know we had that feature!
EDIT: Okay I just realised that you probably have the 16 key version whereas mine is the 20 key version
that's it, I've got the 16 key keypad. I really miss teh Ok/close button, caus I have to grip off my phone for going to the upper right corner of the screen and come back to the keypad....
AE button, doesn't work for this button, neither Vito button...
Anyone an other solution

Why doesn't AE Button Plus work?
I use it for OK/Close and it works perfectly well
So I must not have using it the good way.
But wich button are you talking about, cause with AE button, it only "see" the three external button (wich are on the side). I know that you can assign every button with AEbutton, but when I assign the internet key for ok/close, it close the app the first time I use it and then the key come back to its previous function (internet explorer). Someone a reg trick?
I have the 16 key version too and want the same, an ok button on the keyboard. button utilities only recognize the hardware buttons and not the keyboard buttons so there is no way to map these. hopefully someone will update their utility to include the keyboard buttons.
cheers,

"happy" to see that I'm not the only one who don't suceed by trying to change the function of the internet explorer button on a 16 keypad of a dual for using it with the ok/close button...
I found the camera button akwardly placed (kept launching the damn thing by accident) and dont use the camera much - so I remapped the cam button to OK/Close and have found this does the job for me. Not really a solution I know, but it wokrs for me.
Yes AE Button is great, but while you can map any key like Mail or IE, it will still launch the old app, we'd have to find a way to not launch the old app, in the registry possibly.

I have found the same. Has anyone managed to map IE button succesfully? Also there is a pause/delay when using buttons handled by AE Button, has anyone else noticed this?
any updates!? i think it can be done in the registry though i don't know how. hope that someone can crack this.

I have found a rudimentary solution. Add the IE key using AE Button Plus and run the following Mortscript (I am still a novice scripter) to close IE when it opens automatically and then run Opera Mini.
WaitFor("Internet Explorer",5)
Close("Internet Explorer")
Run("\Windows\jbed.exe", "-run s0_")
It works for me. If anyone has any suggestions on improving it, please let me know.
anythig new about this, pls?
thx

Did anyone has a solution for this? Have been searching to change Ok/Enter and IE buttons. AEBPlus doesnt really work perfectly and eat into RAM..
Can we change registry? lnk? read somewhere about long_press_xxxx.ink but dont find it in our Nike.
Anybody found a solution for this? I've tried everything but couldn't map the IE button on my 16-key Nike to OK/Close.
Hello, I do hope I'm in the correct section. There doesn't seem to be an explicit "Dumb Non-Programmer Questions" area, so if I'm somehow in the bad, my apologies.
Anyway, I was wondering if it it was possible to have an app which reassigned hardware buttons to presses on the touchscreen. So that, whenever you pressed, say, Search, the phone would act as if you pressed area XYZ on the touchscreen.
It originally came to me when I was reading about the Nook Touch, and everyone trying to get support for hardware buttons added. Well, considering most of the ebook readers seem to support taping the side of the page to turn, why not just assign the hardware buttons to one of those areas?
I began researching and found there isn't really anything which does that on Android, or on much anything, really. So I'm more curious then anything now; is it something that just isn't really feasible or possible with the Android SDK, or it is more of a solution in search of a problem that no one's found a reason for?
Lets say you have a button and you want that button to simulate a menu key press you can send key presses via adb and the shell
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(
"adb shell input keyevent 82")
Where 82 is the keycode for the menu key. So i suppose that any hardware key that has a code associated with it could be mapped to a screen press
From something awesome
Er, lemme rephrase the question.
I mean, is it possible to make a hardware button replace a press on the touchscreen? For instance, in the Kindle app, tapping the right third of the screen turns the page. Can I assign the search button, for instance, to replicate my finger tapping the right side of the screen to turn the page?
You can't. But the developers of the application should be able to do this by overriding onKeyDown method (except for the home button which I believe can't be overridden).
Oh bother.
Well, thanks for the replies. I was hoping there might be some method, since it'd make developing for the nook touch easier, but I'm guessing it's not something that's needed more then rarely.
I can't understand why it is so hard or impossible, it is very easy to do on almost every other os. Can't one just assign a button to a mouse click on screen coordinates?
I am asking because it would be awesome, to assign a wii remote button to a mouse click and then play games like Asphalt 6 or so, that don't support hardware keyboard, with a remote controller.
yup, i have the sae question as well. My intention was to play android games which doesn't require accelerometer using wiimote/classic controller.
If you get the app source code or if you are good at smali, you can

Moving to Q&A
i've downloaded wiimote controller app found on the market.
i've tried using wiimote to play on Nesoid and it works fine.
What I want to ask is that is it possible to play other games other than emulators using my wiimote ? Because i found out I can control my tab using the wiimote after it is connected, just some simply task though, like moving through icons and pressing A button to open the app.
I notice there's the key mapping in the app. where i can map each button to correspond to keys in the tab. Example B = back , home button = HOME.
Is there a way to find out which key is actually corresponding to the key i pressed in a game ? Example : some games have left and right button on the left site then action button on right site and so on. Is there a way to know what key is actually corresponding to my touch on the left right key or action key etc ? If so it is possible to map wiimote button to that key and it should works fine in playing other games rather than limited to emulators.
Hope someone can understand my poor english and give me some answers.
Thank You.
Why was nesoid removed from the market? Can someone send me the apk for the latest version?
i get nesoid from slideme market..
does anyone have any solution/suggestion to my question ?
Sorry for this, but does anyone have any solution to my question ? Is there anyway I can know the actual key mapping when i press a certain button in a game?
Hello xda, I'm new here with samsung galaxy S3, new to android, switched from symbian.
Is there an application, which could map hardware keys combos like in taking a screenshot ( Power + Home ) ?
1) For example, I would like to have something like this :
Holding Home Button + Volume Up = switch app ( last) or Next button like in music player
Holding Home Button + Volume Down = switch app (next) or Previous
I have a bluetooth hardware keyboard, where the music app keys work like a charm with Fn key.
2) Secondly, another thing comes from older Sony Ericsson phones, where holding a Volume Down/UP keys worked like Next/Previous song. I found it quite useful, because you didn't have to wake up your device to skip a song.
I know this would take some serious modifications, with root of course.
Currently, my phone is Not rooted, not because I'm dorky with android, just simply because of warrant, because I think a have a faulty device Having device rooted is pain in the _ _ _ for reclamation service, they could reject you.
However, If an app like this exist, I have no problems with rooting.
Thanks in advance for replies!
I think that GravityBox can do this. But need root
As the title says I want to change one of the default buttons on my Xbox 360 wired controller. Specifically the back button. I hate the fact that pressing that button is the same as pressing the back button on the tablet. It sucks as in emulators. It opens emu menus instead of what the games are assigned to. Configuring the controller in the emus doesn't change it's actions either. Any idea on a fix? I'm on 5.4 nougat.

Use built in gamepadmapper, create a profile for that app assigning the back button to the on screen menu on the app.

Using the built in gamepad mapper doesn't help. Even after it's set, when the back button on the controller is pushed it still does the system back action. And that usually overrides the emu key. That was my first idea for a fix.
Anyone else have an idea?
