Where can you buy the official Xiaomi MiKey ?

I ordered the button from Aliexpress. I had to order 10 of them, but they were $1 each with free shipping.

Got them yesterday and they work perfect. Gave a bunch out to friends and family.

Bought from DX. Got the items in about 2 weeks. Not too bad. Works extremely well with MiKey on Note 3.

I was surprised to see the klick app even works with my ear buds with mic button on them. So I can test the app before I get my button.

It's the same with Klick or even pressy, they are basically the same thing but rebranded I think
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ~SilverLad~:

Sony Smart Key app from the playstore also works with klicky/pressy .

So it is obvious that any app designed to be activated with headphone buttons is a go for these little fellas :)

Ps : no long press function in the sony app

It's not in the play store. Somebody posted the apk download link in this thread somewhere.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DeathBlimp:
i got this item http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6128847196.html

it's the klick but the app i downloaded from google play doesnt work on it. no response from the buttons.

i also downloaded mikey, also does not do anything.

i noticed there's a guide involve changing some system files, but that thread has an image missing, making the instructions incomplete.

anyone have a guide to getting the button to work?

I just got mine and I've been trying to get AutomateIT and the pressy plugin working. I don't have any other klick/miclick app installed except AutomateIT and Pressy. The pressy trigger just doesn't show up. Any ideas?

EDIT: Got it to work. Install AutomateIT, AutomateIT pressy plugin, and optionally AutomateIT Screen On/Off. Open AutomateIT, go to settings at the bottom of the page, click on it then click on refresh plugins at the top of the page, go back and viola! Turning it on and off is not as responsive as hardware buttons though, and I guess that's to be expected.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DeathBlimp:
nm it works. I just happened to took out the 1 out of 3 that did not work. I want the button to take pictures but AutomateIT requires you to use google camera that note 3 doesn't seem to support. So i use klick, which does let you take pictures even when you phone is locked but it is slow. I also found that sometimes it stops working because it crashes the camera app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Doman:
Have you ordered from this particular seller? Does he include color wire clips or just the bulk buttons?

Has anyone tried to use the original Xiaomi MiKey on non-Xiaomi and non-MIUIOS? Does it work, as I read different opinions?

I ordered from this seller, no clips were included. I'm using the translates Mikey app with no issues

Hi, I had just bought a 360 Quick Button (360智鍵) for my Lenovo S650 and download the app from this site http://zhijian.360.cn

The app can detect the 360 Quick Button successfully. Klick and Mi Click (Mi Key) app can't detect my 360 Quick Button.

The problem is when I press it once, the app counts as 2 presses and

the Google music player start to playing with the flashlight turn to ON.

(I had configured 1 press to go back HOME and 2 presses to turn ON flashlight by default)

If I press it once more time, both the music player and flashlight will exit. The app will count as 2 presses again.

I had tried to press it twice and thrice but nothing happen. The count remain same, no increment.

Fyi, KeyTest app can't detect any activity when I press the 360 Quick Button.

Please help. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xeebot:
What ROM are you on? I'm on stock rooted KK and all the apps work (Klick, Mikey and the 360 app). Possible you have a defective unit. The buttons are heavily dependent on the ROM, so it could be that also.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] rayxware:
Hi, my phone using offficial S650 ROW S116 ROM and rooted with VROOT. I have 2 units of 360 Quick Button.

So, I can confirm they are not defective because both having the same problem. By the way, which ROM you are using?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] zijin_cheng:
I currently use the Pressy with AutomateIT, the pressy plugin, and the screen on/off plugin. I can use my pressy to turn the screen on and off now, but there is significant lag when compared to using dt2w or s2w or the hardware buttons. Can that be fixed through an app in the future or is that always going to be the case?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xeebot:
I'm on the stock 4.4.2 touchwiz ROM for the Note 3. Your ROM or hardware may not support it. There was a list of phones that the 360 button didn't work on at the sellers site when I got mine.

Are you using the Pressy button or another button with the app? If you're using another button, how did you get the pressy app? Just wondering because I'd like to try the pressy app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] rayxware:
Hi. Yes, you're right. The 360 Quick Button is not working correctly with my Lenovo S650 that came with Jelly Bean 4.2.2.

But, I had upgraded it to KitKat 4.4.2 (ROM from www.needrom.com) and it just works. :D

I think the other cell phone brand/model that the 360 Quick Button website mentioned that not support will be worked if upgaded to KitKat ROM.

Luckily my Lenovo S650 has a KitKat ROM.

Thanks.

Hi. I take contact with Christoph Kober that is Headset Button Controller developer. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset

There is test version of this app in development that supports Pressy plugs. I tested today this and works very well. I think you can look at this tool. One thing that is not I hope yet solved is long clicks support that works for example very good in 360 KLICK app.

Anyone find an app that works reliably? I have the klick quick version and none of the apps listed in this thread work reliably. Double press often just thinks I long pressed. Also, the home button doesn't work after it wakes up the phone.

I'm using an HTC M8 running viper rom.

Security Risk

I bought this plug from geekbuying and it has three (3) qr codes that you can download the app. Two (2) of them are in Chinese language which are pretty much useless namely xiaomi.apk and 360zhijan.apk. The last one is klick.apk which has security issue which is shown from the screen shot.

After uninstalling the apps above, I tried on my galaxy s3 "Headset Button ControllerTrial" previously posted on thread. It is decent enough to function upto 4short press, each can be configure or assign an app like a camera though I have no success on configuring it as physical shutter. Long press still not working.

Hope this helps and if you suggestion or solution then please post it. Thanks again XDA community. It is really great being here :D.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] lotnikkryjsie:
I buy the same thing last week. I have a problem, when i click pressy, often i see volume regulation. I tried many aplications - Klick, MiKey and Headset Button Controller. Do you have any solutions?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:
Did you purchase it from the same seller as I did? Did it look the same packaging as seen in the attached photo? If yes, better ask the seller coz mine is working even the Chinese ones and all the app you mentioned except for the "long press" and limited to 2-4 commands dependent on the app installed. Im also looking for solution since Klick.apk has a spyware/malware.

Info from Headset Button Controller author:

"I just released a new version of Headset Button Controller to google play. The version 7.6 includes the pressy mode (version 7.5, which I released yesterday contained a bug). (...) As I said I don´t wont to implement such a hack for long click.

Showing a different profile icon depending on the selected profile makes sense. I will put in on my backlog ..."

link to app:

For me with this app most important things are Tasker support and all apps, shortcuts available to chose as click action.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:
that great

But did you try scanning it? I have premium paid Norton 360 and this is the only app that flagged red but some app are negligible in yellow or orange flag but this collects you sim data & etc as seen in the photo. Anyway, I wanted the app to be tested by the xda community so we will know for sure :).

Thanks for the update :D

Mi Key

Guys, I found an English version of Mi Key app "MiKey_1.6.2_multilang_xiaomi.eu" and it works great. You can also setup upto 10x commands though some function of "malware embedded ***klick" is a little better compared to this but this is proven clean & no malware/spyware.

Why did you say klick app is "malware embedded"? Are you sure? I've scanned it with CM, AVG, Avast and 360 and there are no positives.:confused::confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Doman:
I think it depends on action. For me flashlight works with locked phone using MiKey app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:
100% sure

see attached screenshot as proof. Im using Norton360 on my mobile not on pc. If you have in your mobile n360(paid version) you will have the same result. I tested on different device with n360 and same result.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:

Sorry guys but it seems Mikey app above was positive for malware after the latest update of my mobile Norton 360. See attached screenshot as proof.

Any alternative?

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ukformula:
I can't get this app to work without my Klick Button being wrongly recognised as a headset. I still want to be able to use my phone speakers and connect the phone to Bluetooth speakers too.

I've gone back to using the KlicK app even though people state it has malware. I've shut down all of it's permissions other than camera and wakelock, I'm not sure if that makes it safe? I'd rather not use it at all if it has malware.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] frezd91:
Klick app is recognized only using Norton and only as "Annoying Advertiser". I think it isn't a real malware but a false positive cause it require a lot of permissions to work properly.

However now I'm with AtuomateIt with Pressy plug-in. Give it a try, it's free! http://automateitapp.com/

Thanks for the reply and the info. I tried AutomateIt with the Pressy plugin today but it wasn't recognising the button. I'll have another go.

Hello!

You might want to have a look at AutoMediaButtons, a plug-in from Joao Dias for Tasker. You have to be subscribed to his AutoApps alpha testing program. The app was alpha-released a week ago and has some lacks, but he is updating it almost every day with new features and fixes.

Klick button. reliability: 2of3 is not working. :)

Hi,

My reliability statistic (based on 3 pieces) until now: is 2of3 bad of this cheap klick buttons.

See my story:

I ordered first Klick button from Aliexpress (2.5 USD) and got a fail item. It seems to work 70% but 30% not.

I used KeyTest https://github.com/chrisboyle/keytest/downloads program

and 30% was showing not the "hooked key", but volume power up. (Many people wrote similar symptoms.)

After 20 click it has been totally died. (Aliexpress sent my all money back. Thanks for Aliexpress. :good: )

I ordered TWO another item from Tinydeal (1 USD) and my 2th arrived item was also bad. :confused:

I measured with ohm meter and found it was not reliable. (Off- more than 2Mohm and On - more than 2Kohm.)

The third arrived button is Working Right Now.

See attached pictures. Impedance resistant in ON and OFF state.

Good resistance values:

ON state - few ohm - 0-5 Ohm.

OFF state - more than 1 KOhm less than 2 KOhm.

(As I remember I was measured similar resistance on stock headset...)

Regards

Robert

Memory usage.

Hi Lazik,

I started to use with Headset Button Controller as you suggested and works great!

I also use Tasker with it and its reliable and wonderful.

Only problem memory usage is horrible. 142 MB!! (see picture.)

I contacted developer and wait for answer. Probably will solved this issue.

Lazik! How is your HBC memory usage ?

Regards,

Robert
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] alobear:
I bought mine off of Amazon and I think I got the kick quick button for 8 dollars. it was working alright and not always reliable but now I have switched to miui and with mikey translated it is working like a charm. also if you install Google search holding down on it will bring up Google Now (Mi-key) . on other roms it works alright sometimes seems slow with the klick app and mi-key. but on miui rom, flawless. I'm loving it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jrk190:
Is anyone else having an issue where the klick is detected, yet shortcuts don't work? Instead the button acts like it's clicking... Like it will open links, etc. It worked on the Kit Kat Bootloader for my phone, on Dalvik, but on ART and the JB bootloader, not so much...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] lazik:
Less then yours but I see also that with using every shortcuts memory usage growths. So after 100 clicks can be also hunderts mb.

Your app suggestion is great, i works for me!

You're welcome and glad it helped. Anyway, your suggested app is great I think I will switch to this one. Long press is working but some feature is lock. How do you trigger camera shutter and flashlight instantly when you press the button?

Thanks so much :) for your post!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:
Norton

You're right to give alternative app and that app works well. Though the Norton flagged title was "Annoying Advertiser", I think it is more than false positive since I also have a lot apps that has a lot of permission and puts advertisement on app but never triggered the alert on Norton and if you can see the details, you can see that it is not only ads but collects your installed app, running app, sim details and prompt to install other apps. For me, definitely violates my privacy.

But your alternative app is the best solution and as of now, no red flag from Norton and I also send it to Norton for analysis.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] green2013:
Try to pull it out

I tried the app and it didn't work as well but when I pull it out and insert it again it will detect it automatically. It will also ask you to change the default action so just do so and follow the screen instructions. Good luck :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] frezd91:
Some features require Pro version. However if you want camera fast capture and flashlight actions you need to install plug-ins. No worries about battery drain: the developer said me that only Pressy plug-in has an active process to recognize the connected device.

I ordered Klick via http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=191301143881 and was quite disappointed, once I plugin the quick button my S3 goes nuts and changes volume itself / opens S Voice etc.

Resistance is pressed around 85 ohms~

This item is a fail!

Ok, so I have ordered 8 of these things from four different vendors from ebay, to amazon, to DX, to gearbest! Here is what I have found out. This thing sucks nad does not work properly for the Note 3 running KitKat 4.4.2 All four versions I have don't work good at all. I have used the Klick app as well as the 360 app and simply put, it fails on the Note 3. A couple of the versions I have when I long press opens up S-voice for no reason. And thats about it.

I will say this though, these things work perfectly in my wife's Galaxy Note 10.1 for some reason running 4.1.2 Everything works perfect as it should using the Klick app or the 360 app. So it seems that the problem either lies in the Note 3 hardware, or in android 4.4.2

Lastly, it's seems these things are a novelty more than anything else. Even being on the galaxy note 10.1 it barely sees any use, as we have 5 shortcuts on the lockscreen that are actually way quicker to use than pressing this little thingy!

All in all, I say dont waste your money!

Or if you do, I will tell you something to buy that is actually worth a few bucks and gets lot of use: RGB Sound Controlled Rotating Disco Light Bulb. If you do order it, remember to thank me when you get it and everyone says how cool it is. And it's cheap! Waste your money on this, as it will actually be well worth it. I even put one in my son's bedroom as this light is so cool everyone loves it!

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] chan.sk:
I bought 3 of these from ebay for USD 2.19 with free shipping. They were sent from China and arrived within a week.

It needs to be fully inserted in the headphone socket or it will not work. Mine works well with the Klick app.

When clicked, it gives a haptic feedback and then turns on the app according to what you set in Klick.

I think this is a good deal.
