My End key (the red button) stops working. Does anyone know how to change the key mapping so that I can use a different button (let say the back button) as the END/Stop button. The phone is working fine however, I can't end the conversation because the button is not working. It's driving me nut. Please help. Thanks

AE Button plus will do it. You can set it to any key you want, with single, double, or triple press, or even a long press. It cost 7.99, but much cheaper than a phone.
maybe I need to go this route. Thanks
Does anyone know which button is which number? Like to change the wheel into a volume control is it key 6?
I'm an idiot... not in the kaiser forum... damn search lol
there is a new version of AE Button! The Button map application! Any experiences? Is there an improvement for the HD? Let´s test
Anyone tried?
I wish to know too =)
Is it free?
I have this registered.
The unregistered version is actually almost fully functioning and well worth trying.
I choose to register since I found the application useful and it seemed fair to pay the developer.
THANKS, for the new version alert. But, I suspect there is little new as the history details for this version are:
02.02.2009(v2.6.6):
Fixes:
Backlight works on HP 612c now
Languages:
Updated Traditional Chinese resources (thanks to Chow Yuh)
AE Button
I find this software very useful. It completely eliminates the need of locking/unlocking software for me.
I just set double or triple tap to answer and hang up keys. This will prevent accidental key press when taking HD out of pocket. To answer call, simple double/triple tap on answer key or simply slide on screen to answer (built-in screen lock will be unlocked during incoming call).
Set press and hold volume up to toggle wireless and down to toggle bluetooth.
This one single software solved all my screen locking + lack of buttons issues!! Believe me i tried touch lock pro, sensor lock, slide to unlock and what ever you can think of (I didnt like because I think its not really practical for me to be rolling phone 180 degrees or shaking back n fourth in meetings to answer a call.)...I know you guys may argue it has light sensors to unlock, but I'll be in meetings and presentations which might be low light conditions. I do not want to set very small for polling interval either. If you have tried all else, no harm in trying this.
if you guys face the same problem like me, this tiny software might be the right solution for you.
The best combination for me:
Gyrator2 (fine tuned based on my apps) + Lumos + AE Button Plus + Touch Response (for onscreen keypress only).
The only flaw that i could find to complain is that they should really change the icon...it looks like bread/potato/or whatever...
Headset Buttons
Hi there,
is this program able to capture the button press events from a headset wired/wireless?
What I'd like to achieve is, to switch to the next song in Mediaplayer as long there is no incoming or active call.
Is that possible?
Thx in Advance
Steve

Hi, I believe not. I understand the press events from headsets and bluetooth AVRCP are actually trapped in the hardware by HTC and by-pass the operating system and are sent directly to TF3D music or WMP.
If you check on the AEB plus site: http://ae.inc.ru/ it says the app is not for specific applications.
(Also: the AEB+ icon does look like a loaf of bread !!)
Will it allow me to remap the Home button on the Touch HD?

Nope. All the others but not the home button.
I have:
1. volume up. 1 press = arrow up, 2 press = volume up, long press = plamp (flash light)
2. volume down. 1 press = arrow down, 2 press = volume down, long press = resco notes recorder (auto)
3. OK / back. 2 press = rotate screen 90 deg
I keep the long press on phone end and long press on phone start handled by the system.
Dave, thanks a lot and you have some very smart short cuts
I may very well adopt them too.

Thanks, but I'm needing a suggestion for replacing the flash light. Never used this now "for real" so I shall find something else for the long volume up press ...
I have almost identical settings but use the long up as a bluetooth toggle. This is a fantastic program and really eliminates one of the few shortcomings of this phone.

Question guys,
How do I map the call button to long press (like the smallest long press ever) to get the Start menu?
Thanks
Sorry, I don't understand what you want. Is "call button" the "end call" or "start call" ?
Dave, call button is the left-most button that answers/makes a call. If it were colored, it would have been green.
I want to short press it to start menu (heres the tricky part, I have Quick Menu as my start menu).
Basically I miss the Start button from my TyTn II (Kaiser) and the scroll on the top. I have managed to set the volume buttons as scroll up/down and want the start call button to imitate the start menu button when I long press it. But I want to long press it for as little time as possible. So say 1 second as opposed to 3 seconds.
I see. So, two points:
1. Get quick menu
2. Use a "short" long press
I asked because the green/start left button is assignable in the standard settings - button to the <start menu> but I don't know how to do this to quick menu. I guess if you make a short cut to quick menu and drop this somewhere in the Programs folder in windows (or a sub-folder) then the standard settings - button should find it OK.
But, for option 2 I have no idea. Instead of the "short" long press how about using AEB+ with a double press ?
Dave, I see from the options that you can set the delay. I guess this from the "Key Press timeout" menu where you can select units of time starting with 200ms to 900ms. I am guessing that 200ms of time needed for a long press would be the shortest longpress possible.
Any how, how to assign the green button to start menu? It doesnt work for me. I have it as 2 presses or 3 presses or long press for start menu but nothing happens.
one problem it works to rotate(volume up which i assigned) but as soon as i make a call or recieve a call it no longer works untill i soft reset???? im i missing a setting or something? i have duttys rom, please help! : ) thanks!
wondering if anyone is able to modify the Samsung framework so we can have a hardware button combo (ie any combination of volume, home and power) to save a screenshot, rather than the stock implementation of palm swipe across the screen.
I find the palm swipe only works for me once every couple of tries, and can often scroll the exact content on the screen you are trying to capture.
Alternatively, Any app suggestions which can achieve this would also be helpful...
EDIT SOLVED already possible with stock frame work... Press and hold both power and home simultaneously for about half a second, and screenshot is captured.
Press n hold the power and home button together !
Power + Home presssed with correct sync indeed
Hmmm doesn't work for me on omega 4.1.... ?? I see online that this should work as an option... Any setting to enable it?
Edit.... Ok got it push both bottoms simultaneously and hold for half a second. Perfect thanks all.
I would have preferred if they stuck with the volume down+ power button combo like stock Android 4.0
Are you holding them in? I thought it wasn't working at first, turns out you just need to hold them both for about a second and it'll work.
I do prefer the SE way of having the option in the LongPressPower options but hey, I love my S3 more.

Nice THX
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
Glad I found this. The swipe gesture is frigging useless for anything that scrolls.
Hello,
I'm using the International GT-N7100 Note II. It's rooted.
I find myself frequently touching the volume rocker or the Power button while using the phone, either when type-tapping or playing games, which gets annoying.
Have there been any mods or workarounds to, say, hold the Home button to access the functions of the volume and power buttons? At least, I can make sure I don't accidentally press those buttons when I do not intend to, and I also can make sure that I'm actually accessing those said functions when I want to, by pressing the Home button.
I prefer a mod or to edit the system files, if possible, rather than install an app for it, like the Volume Locker app.
Thank you for any information.
hey, if im not mistake,you could set 'hold menu button' activites by using 'simplistic control' donation version'
Thank you. But is there a method to directly edit a settings file just to add this behaviour? (i.e. hold the menu button to access the power button and volume rocker, and leave these untouched while in camera mode?) Thanks.

Hi
I have some roms that need to press the ENTER button to calibrate the controls like "Cruis'n USA".
But I can't find anywhere the Enter Button.
I did made some search on internet and they say we can press the F2 button. But i do not have this button on my shield...

Just found it out.
You have to press both Coin and Start on Screen. In that way you will see the mame menu where you can configure a lot of things.
The only problem I do not know how to 'unassign' a button after I have assigned it to something like the Left Trigger on Shield.

Fellow MAME fan, you can also press down on the analog sticks. This click function is what I use for coin and start.
