Hi there,
Totally happy with my BT keyboard, but noticed i can't use all the buttons my phone has. Since most buttons are used for games, how can i input them through keyboard?
The F1 though F8? do most of the things though.
e.g. the 'ok' button is nowhere to be found. Is there a way to make f12 the 'ok' button?
Thanks in advance!

Tweak request-
-Enabling the mute button on the back of the phone when you are on a BT headset or just using the handset so you don't have to mess with the screen.
-A step further: Allow you to remap the button during different situations.
Example-
While not on a call you could remap it to something like voice command or live search (or anything else you wanted)
I accidentally hit that button alot when talking with the phone held to my ear. Launching programs would be weird too as its on the back. I'm sure it can and will be done though.

I'm assuming that no one has come up with anything considering how old this thread is. I'm looking for the same exact thing. This would be great when using my hands-free car stereo that doesn't provide a mute button. Bump!
Either you guys haven't tried Rhodium Keyboard Controller yet, or that's not what you're looking for.
It lets you remap all hardware keys, including the mute button.
Is it possible to wake the device with trackpad or any other button than the power button? I know it is achievable through custom lock screens etc, but there has to be a cleaner way to do it. Cyanogenmod has this option under settings...
Is there a hack to double press the mic button (play) button on the headphones to skip songs? I am using Apple headphones (play-stop button works).
Thanks
I found a solution for headphones control. bTunes and Meridian can be used just like iPod.app on iPhone. YAY
Just need to find how to wake my Desire without reaching for power button...
Download "No lock" from the market, which does what you want but disables the lock screen.
Thanks, I did find that and will use it if i don't find anything better...
Hi all,
Does anyone know a way to assign the buttons below the screen to a function, while the screen is off? The volume button is also useable, even when the screen is turned off. I would like to assign previous track and next track to some buttons, so I don't have to turn anything on to skip a track.
I know I can use the music control which is in the headset that is shipped with the phone, but I like to find out the options here.
Thanks for your input.
Hi all,
I think it is a good idea!
On my old Sony-E. you could change titles by keeping vol.-up pressed for 2 sec.
I haven't read about something similar on Android yet.
I am sorry if I missed this topic.
Thx!
Re:
Keeping the volume button up/down pressed changes tracks too in the custom roms that I've tried (OpenDesire, Cyanogenmod). Not sure if it's a froyo feature or a custom implementation though since I've never had the original froyo on my phone.
[EDIT]
Looks like a custom addition. Just saw the line "Common: Long press volume buttons to skip songs - Jon Boekenoogen" in the cyanogenmod changelog.
Hi everyone
I have really enjoyed using the mic on the keyboard next to the space bar to text, but as some of you may already know it doesnt stay on the AT&T version keyboard as it does on the others. Does anyone know how I can keep it there to just press and use, without the pressing, holding and change to the mic every time.
Thanks in advance
Mic
I would say change to another keyboard. (I suggest Swipe)
I know on my Ouku unit I had the option of mapping different functions to the same steering wheel button depending on if it was a long or short press. Is anything like that available on these?
I see when assigning steering wheel controls there are two little rectangles for each button and when you assign a button one of them lights up.
Possible?
Im interested at the same functionality, can someone confirm possiblity?
Hi,
Not all functions are available with both Short/Long action, and you set both Short/Long Press using single detection eg. select a command for Short and command for long one in each column.
For example you can't assign long function for VOL+/- but you can assign for VOL MUTE, MODE, HOME selections.
