Fn key no longer works... - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i just flashed CyanogenMod-7.0.3-vision so far its perfect. Except that my FN keys no longer work.
is there a fix for this?
Thanks

Settings>Cyanogen Settings>Input I believe

thanks for the reply.
i checked in cyanogenmod settings in input but cannot find any options for the hardware keys.
I can only see
Input Settings (long-press home settings, search key behavior, haptic feedback tweaks)
Buttons (trackball wake, volume button music, camera button music)
quick key 1, 2 and 3

Which hardware keys are you referring to? If you mean the shortcut keys on the keyboard, the ones labeled Quick Key 1, 2, 3 are those.

Hardware key mapping

Hello,
I can't read anywhere why it's not possible to set hardware key mappings for keys other than phone answer.
Also using HButton I can't assign functions to home,back,end,vol up,vol down, ... is there a way?
Where can I read more?
AE Button plus works perfect for back key,volume key,green and red key

Button remapping question

Alright, so I've tried AEButton plus, and dug around here for 2 days and haven't been able to find a solution.
I'd like to remap the "Home" and "Back" hardware buttons on my T-Mo TP2 to Arrow Down (for the Home) and Ok/Select for the Back. Since neither of those functions are an "application" I don't see how that would work.
A friend of mine wrote an app for the ATT Fuze that allows the PTT button to be visible in the standard button mapping area, but I don't know what the scan codes are for the Home and the Back buttons are. Anyone have an idea?
Otherwise, I'd love an application that actually... you know ... worked.
AEBplus can map to key strokes. I have Volume Up mapped to the Up arrow and Volume Down mapped to down arrow.
So I think you just need to:
* Add Button in AEBPlus
* Press the appropraite hardware button
* Select the new hardware button and edit it (I think you hit enter while it is selected).
* Choose the action as a keypress of Up Arrow or whatever you want.
when I try to add the volume buttons as a remap I just get the volume changed... any solution for that?
When I attempt to remap the Home and Back buttons on my T-Mobile TP2, it fails to map them. I've tried everything.
Volume kind of works, but I want those ... for the volume

Aebutton Plus no longer maps vol keys w stock 6.5
Someone else in this thread is reporting what I'm seeing -
Before the 6.5 upgrade, Aebutton plus would let me remap the volume keys to do nothing on single or double press, then execute the volume change on the third press. I liked this because I've always found that I tend to turn the volume off inadvertently - and not just on this phone.
Now, it won't do this, and I can't disable the single or double press.
I've tried it with simplemode set in registry (one volume control, vs. ring and system) in either setting.
Does anyone have an idea as to what they've changed? I'd really like to be able to put this back the way it was.
try to use the program on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240. This is the one I am using right now to map my home key into start menu button.
Im having the same issue. I need something to remap my buttons in order to scroll up and down and open task manager. I have Sprint TP2 with the 6.5 update and tried AEB already, any solutions?

Button assignment

Howdy, i am looking for a way to add more button assignments in the list, currently i only have the call button, when held down it rotates screen, doesnt seem to be a method to add more thinghs, like hold down back key, home key and volume keys?
(end key brings up some menu for putting phone in plane mode etc (not really useful as can do that in comms manager / turn off phone on a plane. so changing that to a better assigment would also be neat cheers.
hello all.
using this post:
is it possible to assign other functions to the button off volume control?
for example: scrool up/down?
There are many programs out there that address this. Search for button mapper, assign button, remap, etc.
Some obvious ones are AEButton Plus, MobileMagic...

[Q] How to set the volume buttons long press activity?

I'm trying to remap the long press of my volume buttons to function as another keypress. I tried posting in the android general q/a but did not garner any results.
This is not actually for my incredible, but my nationite midnite, which suffered the loss of it's hardkey buttons recently (menu, home, back) so I want to remap at least two keys to the long press of the volume button. Hours of searching hasn't done me much good in the way of this as it only points me to to spareparts and cmparts that have the option for longpress home and longpress back, which both keys don't work for me anyway.
Perhaps I could patch it somehow so that I have the media track change for the volume +/- and then remap the media < > to other keys.
I'm just trying to brainstorm the best way to go about this. I know it's the wrong section, but the midnite has limited support and the developer community is quite small.
Thanks for looking!

Why does my physical keyboard stop functioning?

From time to time the physical keyboard stops responding. None of the buttons work, not even the search, menu, home, and back buttons. The touch buttons do work. The only way I have found to fix is to reboot the phone.
I have exactly the same problem from time to time. Normally after unlocking the phone. It seems if I leave it for a while (locked) it does start working again, but a reboot does fix it always.
okay, my keyboard is still functioning, but I choose to post here instead of making a new thread for my concern is also keyboard based.
Does everyone have uses the ALT key for entering numbers consecutively? I also do but quite a pain because unlike the SHIFT key, when I press it twice, it toggles CAPS LOCK, my ALT key does not toggle 2nf functions (blue keys) only when I double press. Is this normal? should I type fast to be able to get 2nd functions consecutively? thanks

My alt key enters a blue key on the first press(one time), double pressing the alt key toggles blue keys instead of regular keys.
On my phone pressing Alt twice locks it and you can tell because the cursor changes. There are a couple of combinations. You can Alt lock and Shift lock at the same time. Again the cursor changes to show this.
Mine doesn't. I see the cursor change, but if i press a key or two, it will turn off the toggle....geeze and it's not defenitely a hw issue...
But if i toggle the alt key, i can type blue characters but i need to be fast..
EDIT: I think I have solved the issue now....I replaced my onscreen/virtual keyboard by the default one.....and now I can type 1234567890 without pain....I installed a 3rd party keyboard and think that triggers the issue. If someone could replicate, that will be appreciated. Thanks for everything.
