The question was how to extend or expand the Nook keys.
The Power and the "n" button work off single GPIO lines.
The side buttons are part of an 8 x 8 matrix.
The full 8 x 8 is apparently not enabled in the software,
The attachment shows where to hook up duplicate pushbuttons for the side buttons.
You connect between Common and one of the four pads.
This has all been verified to work.
(Con6 is the full qwerty keyboard connector but I've not managed to get a peep out of it yet.)

Hello, I was wondering if there's anyway i could press and hold on to 2 buttons simultaneously for my Universal (Dopod 900)
was playing some games till i've realised that i could only hold on to 1 button at a time. (eg. i can only hold Up or Left instead of moving diagonally)
searched for "keyboard fix/hack" in this forum as well as modaco's forum but having no results, tried 6700's multipress hack and it didn't work as well.
any clues will be appreciated. thanks.
it is possible, as you can press the function or shift keys and another one at the same time
yes, but however, it doesn't work on games. that require any two keys other than function or shift key to be pressed simultaneously. then again, i'll be googling around for a fix.
It's been discussed on here before, and IIRC the people with knowledge of the Universal's hardware said that this was a limitation of the Universal's keyboard driver. Unless someone is willing to attempt to write a new keyboard driver (nobody was last time) this will always be a limitation.
Note that you can press a keyboard key and another button (e.g. the backlight button, or direction keys next to the screen) at the same time, which is awkward but does allow you to do multiple keypresses in games (with some practice!)
I think a better approach for the universal would be a macro-like program that allows one keypress to act as more than one. So, for example, you could program 'E' to be 'WD', 'C' to be 'DX' etc. and so give you an 8 direction d-pad. Maybe there's already some software out there that can do that, I don't know...
was looking for something like that as well. so far with no valid.
For some reason when I want to reply to or forward a message using the touchscreen instead of the slide out keyboard the full QWERTY keyboard doesn't display even though this is selected in the options. The on screen display shows the following order (from left to right and from top to bottom)
( 1 2 3 . p
) 4 5 6 , w
+ 7 8 9 backspace arrow
- * 0 # _ return arrow
directional arrow keys
Any ideas how I can fix this? Or more importantly, any ideas how and why this happens? Have tried a soft reset but same result. Hoping a registry fix is in order.
I have seen this two times also....first tread that shows the keyboard I am seeing.
Thanks,
This is my first review so please bare with me.
Pairing is simple as one can see from the screenshot. One just turns the keyboard on and presses the lone button on the back to start the process.
The keyboard is solid but light. I feel like I could carry it around in my pocket without worrying about it being damaged and have been doing just that for the last week.
The keys are firm and make a nice click when depressed. It really reminds me of the keyboard on my old Droid 3 just with a different layout.
The layout can take some getting used to at first and isn't the best I've seen. Some keys (such as the period) are only able to be typed by holding down the Fn key. This is ok in most cases as the Fn key is positioned on the left with most of the buttons that need it on the right. Similarly, the shift key is on the right but it's not sticky. This leads to a bit of reaching when one needs to type !, Q, or A.
The backlight is uneven but perfectly usable and the backlight button is positioned in the top left corner of the keyboard and is easily located in the dark.
I hope that I've covered everything but if you have any questions just ask. This review was typed in full using the keyboard and my Galaxy Nexus.
I have bought C1311B bluetooth mouse & succesfully connected it to my laptop (under Windows 7). But the primary aim of mouse buying was to connect it to HTC One X. So, phone shows Bluetooth mouse in the list of devices, but can't connect to it, only "Connecting..." label is showing. This mouse has switchable CPI (I dont know what is it) among 800/1000/1200/1600 and, according to th User's guide, if I press CPI button, the blue LED (on the bottom) flashes & current CPI will be changed (flash once - 800 CPI, two times - 1000 CPI & so on). But despite the count & duration of the presses on the CPI button, this LED doesn't flash. So, is there any solution for my problem? Thanks
Hello,
I have a Galaxy J4 on which appeared to me a touch problem (it is no longer guaranteed). The part that does not work is just the one above the buttons so that when I want to write a message or switch languages on the keyboard or "close everything" does not work. About 5 millimeters above the keys does not work.
The solutions that I could find are: the rotation of the screen or use the phone with one hand (press the home button 3 times) ... but all this is disturbing.
The other solution that makes things a little easier is to install a navigation bar above the physical buttons (which I will not use) .. just to shift the display up .. but all those that I have tried do not solve the problem as the display stays under the installed bar.
If there is a solution to shift the display just 5 milimeters above the keys .. I will be a taker.
Thank you.
Hello friends
The good news is that it works with the lighter and the piezoelectric discharge ... the screen works entirely and very well.
