Ctrl + 0 (Zero)

Why is it in the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 Forum? Put it in the about XDA section. How do I contact a mod to delete? And BTW CTRL + mouse wheel.

Home Button Issues

Thinking of purchasing the nexus but wondering if the home button ever interferes with texting. Anybody who has a nexus if you could post your thoughts on if you accidentally hit the home button while texting?

no. Id worry more about how laggy the landscape keyboard is sometimes.

You can hit it by accident but you type every day on a keyboard and you manage to hit most of the correct letters so no reason you would be that inaccurate with the space key.....
I'm a heavy texter and I've never accidently hit the home button
I've never accidentally hit it either

Sym button issues

I've looked around, but I didn't see anyone else with this "issue."
I'm on AOKP Milestone 5.2 running Nyan Colonel 4.2. I don't know what or when it happened, but the sym button (function set .com) on the hardware keyboard doesn't work as needed. Pressing sym acts as a select type thing where it continually highlights the next selection area (Button or text). And the smiley button doesn't work either, now that I think of it. Everything else seems to work though.

Wow. I'd say I'm disappointed at this dysfunctionality, but it just goes to show how little I use my physical keyboard. Like, never.

Well that sucks. I use that button a lot, mainly for the .com function. Especially when trying out a new rom and logging back into everything. Guess I'll have to type it out from now on. Thanks for the info!

CM10 Fn Key not working...

This has been touched on in the development thread, but since I just registered, I can't post or reply there so maybe someone will see this and can help me out. With the new CM10 nightly straight from get.cm on my epic, the fn key on the hardware keyboard does not work. In the web browser it just ignores that i've pressed it all together. In texting it doesn't accept any input after pressing the fn key until i press it again to turn it off. Any fixes or is this a bug that will need to be fixed through future versions? Is everyone experiencing this, or is it just a few people?

I wiped everything and reinstalled and it is working now. I wiped every bit of stuff I could off my phone using CWM. Seems to work great now... odd. )(*&^%$#~-_+=[];:\"'><}{|[email protected]/!

You must hold the Fn key, much like the shift key on a pc.

Not unless that is a new way of using the FN key

I think he is still on cm9 unless his sig is outdated. But yes, in cm10 you have to hold the fn key when searching. But I'm fine with that. Mine was not working at all. But then I cleared and reflashed everything and it works

My Fn key doesn't work either even if I hold it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
See my 2nd post above. I wiped everything and reflashed and it fixed the issue. Seems like we got a dirty flash... I wiped absolutely everything from within CWM. Saved stuff I wanted on SD card, went to mounts and storage and went through each wipe option, so I'm not sure which one actually fixed it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app
I have the same issue. Seemed to start after I loaded up a copy of Swift Key Flow Beta. I went back to Swype - and it sill won't let me use the Fn key.
I will try doing some wiping when I have more time, just thought I would add that one little clue to the discussion.

Love and hate it... no long press to get numbers or symbols. I hate having to press the symbols button to get to those.

Better than swipe IMO. I don't know what a few posts above is talking about. Long press for numbers and punctuation definitely works

So is there a trick to bring up special functions on this keyboard?
I like the keyboard, but I miss the numeric keypad, the edit keypad, and the copy and paste ability of the swype keyboard.
I feel like Swype was more accurate at times. But I do like the layout of the Android keyboard better then Swype. I am just waiting for Swiftkey Flow lol. But only thing I hated on the Android keyboard was that it was too long of a delay when holding a button down to get like a "?" for example. Or just longer then I am used to.
Noticed there is no button for smileys either. I use those heavily. Its nice having them on the fly with the button
I think it's just a keyboard like Swype .i mean this is not so attractive but, also thanks for offer this.

[Q] On screen buttons

Hi,
Is there any way to enable on screen buttons on note 2 ? I just need back and home button on it.
Thanks
Not at the moment. you can edit build.prop but things get all messed up.
Just download button savior for now. I have it setup where back and home pops out of the left side and goes bck in withiin a second once used. very convenient and minimal. Doesn't take up much space like all the other wannabe button apps.
OPPAN NOTE 2 STYLE!!!
You can I do its throws a couple of things out of wack. Tw launcher. I use apex though. The camera, cuts of half of the shoot button and the diailer also call log your last call ........ im used to it the buttons are of more help to me then the problems are trouble...." qemu.hw.mainkeys=0"

Not sure why anyone would want to edit the build.prop, it messes up all the dimensions. Here is a pic of what i am talking about. Button Savior simple clean and works. Everything is configurable, from button locations, size, numbers of them, how long before it goes away etc ..
