Hi everyone,
First off, forgive me if this is in the wrong section.
I was wondering if there is something that enables the user to disable the Capacitive Back And Menu Buttons in Landscape mode. I have searched through the forum and could not find anything. I find it annoying playing a game or watching a video in landscape, because I keep on touching these capacitive buttons.
Thanks! :good:

Hi
I am still getting used to the my new touch hd phone. I've been playing with the screen lock tools available here but can't seem to find the right one for my needs. I want to be able to lock the screen during full screen video playback so it won't jump back to the portrait mode with an accidental touch on the screen (or keys). Either a slide or a long key press can return back to the portrait mode. Any ideas how I can achieve this?
Thx.
Does anyone have an easy recommendation on how I can toggle the screen on/off without interfering with music playback in WMP since the Rhodium lacks mapable hardware buttons?
I was hoping turning it face down would do the trick, but that doesnt seem to do anything. Any way I can get it to toggle the screen when I flip it face down? Would I have to use Gyrator or a similar program to do it?

there is a reg edit for this so the power/standby button doesnt stop playback. But you can also use keyboard control to map the mute key if you have a tilt2.
I mapped the mute button to:
1 press: S2U2 Lock
2 press: S2U2 lock and turn of the screen light
3 press: Soft Reset

the easiest thing to do is install psshutxp. it is a great app. when you hold your power button it gives you option of screen off, turn phone off, or reset. the screen off works great for wmp playback
Hey why don't you use free key mapping utility by tarkim, I am using the same, it lets you map any hardware key 3 times. Check out the following link

hi folks, yesterday i stumbled upon this nice piece of software called iperov's Pocket guitar http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482726
It's essentially a virtual guitar that you can strum and pick. The problem is, i have to hold some sort of hardware button to play the chord and we know Rhodium don't have that much hardware button
i tried to open the keyboard, but then the screen goes to landscape and i had a hard time setting up the chord (check out the vid on the thread to see what i mean).
Now when i had my Xperia, u can assign one of the button to rotate the screen manually, but it doesn't seems to be available in the rhodium.
Is there any way to toggle the screen manually from landscape to portrait, vice versa? even with the keyboard out.
I thank you for all your response
Edit: solved. Sorry for the waste of space guys
Does anyone know how to remap the optical trackpad to turn on the screen when pressed?
search the development section. i beleive there was a way to do it without having a rom.
Okay, so I've successfully managed to disable my capacitive buttons on my Note 2, using this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34247225) tutorial right here. No problems there, but it seems that they are not completely disabled.
After I disabled the capacitive buttons, I have noticed that the area where the capacitive buttons are still function! Let me explain. The capacitive buttons does not do anything, but seems to have a functional capacitivity (correct word?). Example: When I'm watching a video on the youtube app and I touch the disabled capacitive buttons, they seem to wake up the phone as if I was tapping on the screen. Also in certain apps, they seem to actually function as if I was touching somewhere on the screen. In the game "Nemo's Reef" (don't ask), when I'm touching the disabled capacitive buttons it takes me to the menu in the game and does several other things like clicking in the menu, going back, moving the screen etc.
It's not a big problem, but it is annoying and do show that the capacitive buttons are not completely disabled - as promised in the tutorial. The capacitive buttons are disabled, but the capacitive area is still functional, and (in some apps) seem to act as if I were tapping certain areas on the screen.
My question: Is there a way to completely disable the capacitive area where the capacitive buttons are?
I hope this was interesting, and it would be a pleasure if somebody could look into this and/or give me an answer.
