I am looking for an application to change the remote control keys - the button mapper is wrong.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton
After all, I wrote that the button mapper is wrong.
Why, homie?
1) Locks things louder and softer by holding down the volume buttons. Jump one position only.
2) In the smart menu, pressing the ok button expands the menu. It works like holding down for approx.
Yeah I've noticed that one to about 1) when I was using it. I've tested all of those app and only this one was working.

i really miss hardware scroll buttons.
on the rhodium there are two little side buttons for adjusting the volume. i'd really like to repurpose these as scroll up/down. For example, to work inside a browser. Unfortunately, there is no standard option (i can find) to redefine the purpose of these buttons.
i'm hoping there's another way. eg registry hack etc.
thanks for any help,
Use AEBPlus
I am doing exactly the same thing with my Volume Up/Volume Down, I've turned them into arrow keys. The lack of these is my biggest annoyance with the TP2.
That said, I have noticed a little flakiness - most of the time they work fine, but sometimes I hit them and they don't scroll as I expect. Then a moment later they start working.
Anyway, it's much better than not having them re-assigned.
Incidentally, AEBPlus has a cool feature where you can tell it not to remap the Volume keys when you're on a call, so they can still be used then.
Thanks for the tip, i'll give it a go!
AEBPlus works? I'll try it. heard from another TP2 user that it caused his device to freeze up resulting in a hard reset...

Been OK for me so far
Yes, AEB Plus works (no hard reset), but I can only add the windows button. The <-- (back) button does not work when mapped using AEB Plus.
Also, if you're using the JBed Midlet manager, the arrow keys automatically scroll up and down. It works well with Opera Mini.
AEB plus does nothing for me... i just have a list of buttons I can't do anythign with, a giant memory leak and crashing.

Yeah there appears to be no way to open an entry from the list using touch alone - must be a bug.
Highlight one of the buttons in the list, flip out your keyboard and then press enter/return. It will open the Edit menu where you can assign that button to something.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! lol, I was wondering why people were talking so much about an app that does nothing
Did you guys install to main memory? I had no problems with AEB Plus on my 1.19.707.2 ROM.
I could assign the vol up/down keys and could also add the windows key. It is a bit tricky using the windows key as the first press brings up the programs tab.
I added the back key also, but couldn't get it to work. I didn't touch the send and end keys.
BTW, I used AEBPlus v2661

This all is my biggest concern upgrading from a Tilt.. I REALLY like hardware buttons, and make extensive use of AEButtonPLus as it is...

Press the entry in the list and keep holding for a few seconds more.
I've been using it since I had my touch hd and it works perfectly and I haven't found it to cause any issues.
Personally i assign one volume button to a task switcher (spb ms3 task manager) which makes multi-tasking far easier. You can then map double clicking to the original volume functions and even long hold to something else useful such as comm manager.
Awesome Tip. AEBplus Confirmed to be working fine on TP2 from T-Mobile (still stock rom for now). I made the volume buttons map to up and down like suggested but also made a long hold for volume up do "enter/activate" and a long hold for down do rotate the display.
my phone (telus rom) keeps getting screwed up when I install AEBplus and gets back to normal when I undo it.
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

I'm not totally sure what mean by scan codes, but are these them: http://ae.inc.ru/aebpluscline.php ?
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?
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...
This is probably the weirdest question asked but here's my scenario
I work part time at samsung store. My shift starts in the morning when we open. Naturally, we have to turn on all the TV's so i use my HTC's IR blaster (Range is amazing) to turn on all the TV's
What i want: an app (tried searching if it exists. no success) which can make the volume buttons function as if the screen is pressed in that particular point, when app running on background
I.E, if i press volume down, it performs the action as if the top right hand side of my phone is being pressed by my finger (Acts like a mouse i guess?)
The reason i want this is because the IR app i use has the buttons really close to each other, i end up pressing other buttons making the TV do different stuff (My fingers are chunky) and also this method would be very easy as i need to point my phone and press the physical button instead of constantly locating the button (Physical buttons are always awesome)
Maybe assign the volume up as if the left corner of my phone is being pressed, where the mute button is
Please tell me if an app exists or if i'm talking complete nonsense:silly:
If it doesnt make sense, read through again or ask me for a brief explaination. THanks:laugh:
Hi,
Today while reboot some application asked for two hardware keys, I've pressed Volume-Up and Volume-Down keys and land up into following issue.
1. Pressing Volume-Up key start selecting elements on screen with blue focussing rectangle instead of volume increase functionality. This is similar as pressing TAB keys in desktop application to switch controls on screen. Volume-Down key acting as Enter (or Select Key) instead of volume decrease. Now I can operate all applications on phone using two keys but cant control volume
2. I've not installed any such application to map these keys. Now this app is not appearing again when I reboot my phone
How can I reset volume keys back to original state and remove or disable this hacking application or feature of android phone. I don't want to install a button remapping application - first need to eliminate the bug.
Device: One Plus 3
ROM: Resurrection 5.4.8
Same issue her
Super irritating. Can't find anything via Google search except this thread.
you have Talkback turned on - go into accessibility settings and disable it.
navigating in this mode is different (for users that need slower inteface), so :
tap = double tap
