[Q] GameKeypad on Ouya - Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been successful in getting the GameKeyboard app running on Ouya? I have it installed, and my buttons are mapped and working on the test screen. However, when I bring it up during a game I get the overlay, but it's not responding to key presses nor am I able to drag the buttons to where I want them.
If anyone has it working and could share their settings I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

Remap phone buttons

Hi all
I need some help locating a small program that enabled you to remap the send and recieve hardware buttons, I wanted to remap the buttons so they do what it says on WM2005 lower screen.
I saw the program a while ago but I have no idea what it was called to do a search.
Any help would be good.

[Q] Touchscreen destroyed! Need help! How to press enter without touchscreen?

Hi Guys!
I really, really need help with this one! Recently my touchscreen stopped working. And it is a hardware problem. Some liquid seems to have flown out, so no point fixing it. The rest works. However there is no way to press enter with the keyboard only. Do you have any ideas which shortcut might work to press enter with keyboard only? PLEASE help.

I don't have my Shield with me. Does it properly recognize the home button now? Figures the first day I didn't bring it to work and something gets updated I want to test
don't have it with me either
Home button is not recognized for me.
Hm, yet another update. Wonder what this one does? Yeah, Home button doesn't work for me either.

it doesn't recognize the home button but i mapped the nvidia button as a click key for the home button, so every time i push the nvidia button it acts as a home button :good:

Works fine for me; just have to play around with the settings.
To get the home key working (so you dont get stuck in an app, or in a game and the back button doesn't work) you have to disable the IN:GPIO-KEYS... then in the settings, I have 'Enable special system devices' un-checked.
That is the first thing I suggest doing on every profile, and also map something to "Execute Function" - Mapper so you can bring up the mapper and you don't get stuck in a game if your settings are wrong.

Nice. I never would have thought disabling the back and power key would suddenly allow the home key to function properly (Back key as well works like it should). I always had the other thing unchecked but never tried actively disabling those two keys. Nice find.
Fixed with reinstall

Wipe your configuration.
Latest version is working fine.
What happens with home button? It does nothing or it just does Home function?
Tincore, I have shield and I tried two games with your apk. Mass effect and real racing. Where can I download some shield profiles?
Mass effect have difficult configuration buttons because it use touch screen for different things. Left half screen to walk and run (I don't know which option is better for this) and right half to camera. The problem is when you want to jump over an obstacle... It use touch screen again where you were.
Real racing works well, but a lot of times, the left joystick block and don't turn the car... Which option must choose?
Thanks

Actually I don't know if anybody has organized a thread in any forum. For shield it would make sense.
I dont have a Shield myself so it is difficult to tune those issues. Can you enable touches on screen and record a small video showing the issue?
Showing touches on screen (on developer options) will also help you understand what each mode does.

Hello everyone,
I am not sure if all Tincore profiles work on different devices. On the OUYA forums someone has started a thread for people to post their profiles.

Currently you cannot use one on another device.
If somebody would like to control his Linux/Windows and possibly Mac with the Shield (or any other Android device) can try the attached server.
Unzip and execute the script or the jar directly!
great to see the home button now working for the shield, being able to map the menu button to the nvidia button makes the device far easier to use, still can't believe nvidia didn't include one.

In the current beta you can remap power (nvidia) as well. In my opinion, for a power button, it is too big and too in the middle.

Remap the Camera button

Hi,
I have a rooted 4.6.1 fire phone with Xposed, and I was wondering if it is possible to remap the phone's camera button to another camera application
I have already briefly tried remapping with the additions module, but it didn't recognise the key.
Cheers,

I tried some apps (unfortunately they were a bit "old": 2011/'12) which can map buttons to apps, none worked really, except one was promising but I couldn't finish testing because the xxxxxx320 version had some Amazon voodoo going on, I'm not even going into details.
I will go back on 820 and edit this post when I'm done testing. Btw. I guess you saw the threads here on XDA about hardware key mapping, press buttons to run a script (to launch an app), etc.?
edit: "Home2 Shortcut" was unsuccessful. The app is from 2011 and made for Android 2.x. I could select and configure everything I wanted but nothing happened.
Same problem, as seen from CM11
Home2 worked for me, using CM11. Requires a long press, and can't seen to use it as if hoped (as a back button, to let me kill the on-screen buttons) but it's something.
Tried some other older apps, as you mentioned: KeynumberTracker showed key # 358, but the associated ButtonRemapper app doesn't give that as an editable option.

Home button unresponsive on tab s 8.4

Hi there
Bought this second hand.
Was working fine, and all of a sudden the home button isn't working. I've tried a reset and a factory wipe/reset - still nothing. Google search doesn't really help. The back and menu buttons to either side of the home work fine, just the central home button which isn't working.
I know there exist software solutioons - but would rather get the hardware fixed/diagnosed.
Any help?
Thanks
I also have the same issue. My button is unresponsive, yet, the finger print scanner works. I was wondering if anyone had a similar issue?
