Okay this is most likely a noob question but do I really have to hold the alt key the entire time to type numbers or is there another way kind of like a caps lock but for the alt key ? Holding it while typing numbers is a pain in the butt lol . Ty

Hit it two times in a row and it will lock into "alt" then hit it once to get out.
Custom keys D-Pad
Hi!
I would like to know, if it's possible to make the custom keys act like directional keys??
Is there a way to assign "move cursor left" to the 1.custom key, and "right" to the 2. ....and maybe SHIFT+1.custom is "cursor up" , SHIFT+2.custom is "cursor down"???
I think it would be very useful, because i don't need any app to launch one-click, but the directional pad is missing! The touchpad is great, but not the best for me
There is an app to button remap. Either use the search,... or there is a link in the 1st post of the MIUI thread in the Development section

Hi, I was wondering if there was any way to program any keys (such as ijkl or wsad) to act as arrow keys because I wanted to play a flash game (http://www.driftgame.com.au/) and it required the arrow keys to be held down to drive, and the track pad doesn't to a good job. I feel this will impose future problems for any flash based games. Any help appreciated!

If you use swype keyboard, start on the swype tips key (bottom left corner), and slide your finger to the ABC key to the right. An arrow keyboard will open.
Thanks! But how would I bring up the arrow keys in the game mentioned in my post ?

is there a way to remap the keys on the evo 4g i would really love to be able to push a hardware button to bring up the dialer i am hoping there is a flashable zip or something to get this to work??
I know in the newer CM7 builds you can set long press settings for the capative buttons, like ths search key and menu key, and set it to launch whatever app you want.
I am more or less looking for a dedicated call button I know if you long press home button thank brings up recent apps

Here are some CWM flashable zips I made for different hardware keyboards for CM9.
One has remapped the tab key to the smiley button and the dpad center key to the symbol key, the other has mapped the @ key to the smiley key and the dpad center key to the sym key.
If you have any issues or questions please post in the thread. These are only for the Epic CM9 alpha builds.
Flash these in recovery, I am not liable for any issues you may have, etc. If you use these please say thanks.

Will this work with alpha5? Also is there a way to keep the fn key sym function that brings up recent apps but adds the @ for just symbol pressed by it self? Thanks!

Yes this should work on A5 and any/all cm9 builds. As for you second question I have no idea. Sorry.

I just recently changed to CM9 beta1, and I wanted to know whether or not its possible to get the smiley key on the epic to actually be a smiley key in CM9? I'm not trolling or kidding around I use this key a fair amount and my research on this has run a bit dry.... any ideas or tips to get this working? Thank you!
I wish someone would make an add-on flashable to map all the keys correctly. Something that could be offered as an add-on for each cm9 build release. I can however live without it.

So I love my s3 but one thing I hate and I think a lot of u do as well is the physical home button...the solution to this annoyance of having to press the home button two apps one is LMT the other button savior...both apps need root...I used LMT on my gnex...on my s3 using button savior and its great. I have it set to auto hide and appear on a right edge swipe...with no icon overlay to trigger..the soft keys are customizable in the pro version...its not for everyone but for me makes using the phone a bit easier.

Nice find i hate the physical home button personally wish it was all capacative buttons and in the pro version would i be able to use one my capacative buttons to wake the device isntead of using the home button ?
EDIT-tried the pro version the capacative buttons cant be changed to do another function
I had the same complaint and so I figured out how to re-enable the softkeys that are built into ICS. I used to have a GNex and I really missed the softkeys. The only issue I have is that the touchwiz apps are built using an absolute size meaning that they get cut off when the touchkeys are enabled but Its not a big deal to me.
I actually like the home button.. It's really convenient if your feeding your baby or your hands are full to just tap the button to wake the phone up.

Nova Prime allows you to remap the Home button function.
The home button isnt bad but it doesnt seem like it will hold up for long

Hi all,
l upgraded my phone from a Mt4G to a note 2, and have been Very pleased with it.
The only thing 1 miss, though, is the hardware search button on the bottom right. I understand That long- pressing the Menu key functions as a search , but it doesn't work in all apps . Notably, in Chrome for example. To get a Search going, I have to reach All the way to the top of the Screen to the address bar - a LONG reach on this screen!
please let me know if lm if I'm missing something here- Some additional function that makes up for my missing search key!
Thanks
Lee
Well youll get used to not having it. I used a lot of old androids with the hardware search button but now i dont even remeber using it.

You could always install LMT Launcher on XDA, then assign a search key through the pie controls.
