Personally, I'm avoiding mapping Talk/End but you should be able to follow the same basic steps.

I just tried the physical keyboard, the "Enter" key appears to trigger the shutter. That means you need to map "Enter" to the end key while in camera mode.

Here's the procedure (I suggest reading it once before you try it):

open the config page

select "Add Key" and press the end key (or whatever physical key you want to use).

To make sure your end key still works normally during calls, we have to do some extra steps.

under "Key Mode" select "Do not remap key" -- this tells it not to change the end key in other applications

Tap "+" where it says "Rule". This will bring up a new dialog.

While that dialog is open, use the stylus (you MUST use the stylus) to tap Start and open the camera application (the dialog won't move or go away so this isn't easy but it can be done)

After the camera opens, put the stylus completely back into it's holder. It should return to the key remap page. (this is why you have to use the stylus, putting it back into the holder tells it you're done)

Now, we need to remap the key to take a photo.

Find "Key Mode" again, and select "Direct Key Mapping".

under the "Key" drop-down, select "13 Enter"

tap "OK"

tap "Update Config"

Now that you're done, remember to go back to the Camera app and close it -- otherwise it'll kill your battery running minimized.

Just tried this on mine and it works.

End key - doesn't end call anymore

Thank you for a great program. I love it!

I need help - how can I get my end key to hang up the phone (I remapped it and now I can't hang up unless I use the touch screen). Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
How did you map the "enter" function to it...as a single press, double, triple, or long...? You'll need to go into the app again and map "end" to whichever of those you haven't used. Even if you mapped "enter" to a double-tap, you have to specifically map the original function of the key to a single-press as well...once you map a key it won't respond to any touches that aren't specifically programmed in the app, including the default function :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] barbo:
Thanks, sirphunkee, for helping me. So if I understand you correctly, if I map a key to something different, I also have to map it to it's "normal" action or I lose that action.

I am struggling to remap the End key so that a single click hangs up and a double press starts a program. I chose Multiple Actions and then Click and then Default key action. Then I chose double click and run program and found my program. I update the config and each time I try that I either get the hang up to work or the program to run but I can't get both to work. I must be missing a step
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
Correct...once you map something manually to a key with this app, the stock mapping is lost, and will need to be recreated if you still want it (at least in my repeated experience).

Now, make sure that you map both the buttons in the app before you update the config...it sounds like you mapped one, then went back and mapped the other, clearing the first, but I could just be misunderstaing :o If you do see both button maps in the window when you hit update and it'll still only do one or the other function for you, let me know and I'll dig into it a little more with you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] barbo:
I did have both (actually three mapped) before updating the config:

click: default

double: program

long press: default

I have done it numerous times and sometimes I get the click and the long press to work but not the program and sometimes I get the program to work on double click but not the others.

Question: what is the point of the little checkmarks - I have tried checking and unchecking both before remapping and after remapping. I have no clue what they are for and maybe my problem lies there (?)

I appreciate your assistance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
My pleasure ;)

I'll have to pull my TP2 out in a minute here (I'm playing with my HD2 right now :D) and I'll tinker with your problem here. First, are you running the stock AT&T ROM? And, what program is it that you're trying to get to launch? I want to try to duplicate your exact situation there. PM me with the info if you prefer.

As for the checkmarks, I'll have to open the app again here in a minute to see, I don't recall the answer off the top of my head :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] barbo:
I'd like google maps to open on double click (which I can do but I then lose the click to hang up)

sirphunkee - you are a credit to the xda community :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
Hey there barbo...sorry for the delay, it's just taken me a while to be able to get in and tinker with it to find the answer. But, the good news is that I think I've found an solution for you...

The simple way to explain it is that when you're assigning the single-click to end a call, instead of choosing "default action", choose "emulate key press", and then in the list of keys you can choose to emulate, scroll all the way down to #115 "F4 - END CALL", and just click "ok" on that screen...then save your config again, and it should work the way you want now. I had trouble just like you did when I tried assigning it to the default function of that key, I have no idea why...but assigning it this way seems to work fine. I attached a screenshot so you could see how I configured the single-press for the end key.

As for the check marks in the first screen (where you have the "update config" button at the bottom), those are just to choose which button mappings you do/don't want included in the config update...you can choose to exclude any of the ones you've already defined that way, without having to erase/delete them. So, just make sure the check is there for whatever you DO want to update ;)

I think this should clear it up for you, but if not let me know and I'll work on it some more (without as much delay this time lol)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] barbo:

oh yes! emulating instead of using default worked! muchos gracias, sirphunkee

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ugoff:
I think I've run into a specific issue involving the keymapper and the Loudtalks program that was shown on the XDA homepage today. I have a Tilt 2, but I use an AthineOS ROM, which is not made for Tilt 2's. So I use the Tilt 2 keyboard layout cab and the keymapper to map everything the first cab misses, as well as custom stuff for the until recently useless PTT button. Loudtalks can use hardware buttons and has a function to scan for keycodes to use them.

When I scan for the PTT button (after removing the mapping), it recognizes 0xED. But when I go to use it, it does nothing. The volume up and down buttons(assigned by the CAB) instead activate it. I read in an older thread about the creation of the Tilt 2 keyboard CAB that the PTT is the same as a FN + E. I tested that and it does indeed activate the PTT in the program.

So, I went to assign FN + E to the PTT button, but I can't seem to find any way to do that. I can do a emulated keypress, but the options are for 101-key style keys (CTRL, ALT, LWIN, SHIFT, etc). Is there a way to do this?

Hi. Nice program. But I don't know if I don't understand all the functionality of the program, I try to add a special character to a function key and it doesn't work.

For example, if I want to add the "é" character to the SMS key (a key that I don't use). I know that this character is ASC 130. But it doesn't work.

Someone have an Idea how to add some special character to a specific key?

This work fine in aebplus key mapper.

Hiya, first of all, this is a lifesaving app. Fantastic job on something so brilliantly done.

Im currently using a Da_G's clean ROM which has the Tilt2 keyboard layout, but I have a TouchPro2 (UK layout)

Installing this has changed the layout to the correct state, except for most FN keys. Things like FN+right still open the comm manager & stuff like that.

But the top row symbols dont work & Im not sure how to get them back.

Im on about !@#$%^&*() etc.

Hmm.. Just this second Ive just found that the CTRL key has been remapped to aact as FN o__o Ill play with it and see if I can change it back somehow :/
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cris_rowlands:
Hmm. Ive found its swapped the CTRL & FN key on my device. Your app wont actually recognize the CTRL key to remap it though...

Any fix for this?

Driver is great but i think i known how to make it to be even better :)

I'm writing fast on keyboard and I use this driver for writing polish letters

Many times before polish letter (mapped on for eg. on FN+e) shows on the screen I press next letter so I've make many misspellin.

Is there any possibility to make some mapped keys (selected by check box) displaying immediately after pressing key - without waiting for timeout that checking for double or triple click ?

I've think the best practice would be (says - we are remapping FN+e):

Click: ę

DblClick: Ę

TrippleClick: (Euro)

And then when I press FN+e once "ę" is displaying

- double click - first "ę" and after second click - combination of Backspace and "Ę"

- triple click - same as above

Is it possible ?

Could someone advise me on how to properly use the app? I have it installed on HTC Touch Pro 2, and it is working, but I'm not so sure on how to map it. I want to change the messaging button to "Alt" and remap the Internet Button to IE (it is Opera by default).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ivwonka:
Menu>Add Key> Press messaging button, change "key mode" field to "direct key mapping" and then change "key" field to "Alt." Hit "OK" and then "Update Config" (left softkey). You are done with that one.

On my keyboard (sprint), the internet button is actually Fn+left arrow button. So to do that, Menu>Add key> Change Modifer to "Fn" and then press left arrow button. Change "key mode" field to "multiple actions" and (leave "event" field as "click" and you can add other functions to double, long press, etc.) Press the "..." button, change "action type" field to "run program" and then hit the "..." button next to program and then navigate through your files to the program and this could be different for different rom's (but probably windows>iexplorer.exe).

good luck, keep playing with it and you will learn it real fast. remember, you can always delete a key you made and try again. and always hit "update config" after making any changes. no reset is necessary, changes are immediate.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] CLHatch:
Well, with the original Sprint rom you were able to, just had to map it to "Enter" (I actually did this for the POWER button, and made the volume up/down be for Zoom, by changing those to the arrow keys, but only when the camera program was in the foreground). Seems the 6.5 Sprint rom the camera program has changed to not use Enter to take a picture though, not found a way for the new rom yet.

I run my own custom ROM and tan into this problem myself when I updated my ROMs base to the newest official HTC TP2. The only solution I could find was to use the old camera application (from the T-mobile 6.5 ROM) instead of the new one.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] toadlife:
My ROM is based on the TP2 UK ROM and I had to download a keyboard layout fix for my T-Mobile TP2.

Try looking for the following registry key..

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles]
"07FF"="eT9.Rhodium.TMOUS.kmap.txt"

ON the stock UK ROM there is no keyboard layout file and the above registry key does not exist, so if you delete that key (back it up first!) and do a soft reset, your keyboard might be mapped properly

request switch-to-prev-app

hey, I would return this phone to store for not operable without your keyboard mapper!!! thanks

I was using Hbutton on kaiser before, and get totally used to have switch to previous window function with it. I tried my best to make your mapper and hbutton work together but just gave up.

edit: I managed to make alttab.exe switch immediately without delay by editing:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Spb Software House\Pocket Plus\8]

"alttabshowtime"=dword:000001C2

to a low value (it would be a time in ms)

so i am all happy now

edit2: value in keyboard mapper for repeat action must me lower then alttab's "alttabshowtime" otherwise it would just be poping and flashing on you while holding button (of course :) )

I have 400 for mapper and 450 (1c2 hex) for alttab

How would I go about creating a map for FN+Shift+A? In the "Add key" dialog I must choose between the FN and Shift/Caps modifiers. I cannot choose both.

What I'm trying to do is to add the Swedish character 'å' to the 'A' hardware button so that pressing FN+A would give me an 'å' and pressing FN+shift+A would give me a capital 'Å'.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] papo:
hy3456:

yes, Anyone who can and is willing to use google know this. it's on 5 different places already.

timbone19:

it's CTRL-C, CTRL-X and CTRL-V not FN and it's native on rhodium keyboards. Means, it work without any additional tweaks.

If you want to map these keys to a app which is not supporting it, like resco explorer, you may use a trick to hold CTRL before clicking on 'map a key' and then press x,c,v but that's nothing to do with "keyboard mapper" too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] papo:
getting back wm native mappable keys

Just find out that with "Rhodium Keyboard Controller" you can have back winmo native mappable keys.

Many applications can map only those winmo is providing and with rhodium we've got only one "send key (long press)"

but if you add missing registry entries (in attachment) you can map any key to App1 - App7 with keyb controller and then map it in soft you want to use it in.

Another advantage is you can map a key to be app1 then in winmo mapper map it to be e.g Start menu, rotate, scroll or run app and then in an app where you want a different function, map it there to be something else.

like mobipocket reader. I need a 'back' button to return from a dictionary to where I stop reading. So I have 'send(one click)' as App2 in "keybrd contrl"

Using it as 'Left' navi button, but in mobireader as 'back'. Don't need left in mobireader, so have 'back' instead.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Hanson68:
I had posed this question months ago and am hoping someone figured it out by now: I want to use alt+tab in a remote desktop window. I have the alttab.exe program, but that's a winmo task switcher, not a true alt+tab keystroke, and it does not work within remote desktop.

I have tried adding alt+tab in all sorts of ways as well as alt+page up. Nothing works.

Any ideas?

ETA: Well whaddaya know, I figured it out. It's keyboard emulation, but instead of send to OS, select send to active window. switches tasks in rdp like a charm.

I can't get alt+F4 to close programs. but that's not nearly as necessary.

Hi,

Your Raphael Keyboard Remapper is the best key mapper I've ever tried. With newer packages released by HTC, some keys on the keypad and hardware keyboard are not usable. With the remapper, I've been able to solve them all.

However, I'm having some problem with the Back key for HTC Messaging Client. Actually with HTC Sense, the Back key is not usable anymore. To work around this I've mapped the Back key (NAVI_BACK[74]) to Direct Key Mapping on "Manila" class with 92 as the key code (Send to Active window). With this configuration everything works fine. However when HTC Messaging Client is in the foreground, pressing the Back key will result in "\" is typed into the input box.

I've tried every possible configuration (including excluding classes) and I can't seem to work it out. I'm hoping that you could help me out on this one.

Thanks in advance.

Cookie Home Tab

I have a TP2 with NRG's Cookie ROM. Cookie Home Tab has multiple quick links pages. Pressing the Endkey brings me back to the home screen of sense, but if it were possible to change it to take me to the default page of cookie's links. I often find myself scrolling 'back home' through the cookie home tab quick links, wishing that the endkey press would do this for me. Or maybe a better choice would be to map the double tap of the EndKey to do this. Is there anyone fluent with the Rhodium Keyboard Controller Application, that also is familiar with Cookie Home Tab that might be able to tell me how to do this?

thanks.

My power button has stopped working on my phone and I've figured out how to get the screen to turn OFF with a double press of the back key (Power Management -> Screen Power Toggle), but all this does is turn the screen off - the other keys are still responsive it just doesn't show anything on the screen.

The other one, suspend device, turns it off, but I am unable to turn the thing back off unless I open and close the keyboard.

Any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] IgwanaRob:
Set it up the way you want, then export this reg key:

HKLM/Software/KeyboardConfig

Drop that reg file into your XDA_UC folder and it will import all the settings (I have the reg file prefixed with a higher number than the Keyboard Controller cab's prefix number so that it installs after the Controller - PITA to rename all your files, but ensures the order they are installed :cool: )

Don't forget to backup that key whenever you make changes in RKC ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] IgwanaRob:
Is the power button problem hardware related (contacts possibly worn?) Have you tried re-mapping it?

If you re-map the back key to emulate the default action of the Power Button, you might run into the problem you describe because once the device is off, all buttons but the power button are locked out (you can turn it on because the button itself is no longer activated). You change the lock settings to allow any keypress to turn the unit on, but then putting the phone in your pocket could turn the thing on if anything hit the buttons, etc.

On a side not, see if you can press the space bar on the keyboard by pressing the very left edge of the phone slightly down and in (sliding the screen no more than quarter of an inch). On my device it's so easy to do that I actually edited the registry to stop the device from turning on when the keyboard slides open or is activated, so if you're stuck with a bad hardware button this might be only a slight adjustment for you to use :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Bantimus:
You basically answered my question - there is no way to unlock the other keys when the device is actually off. I was able to re-map the back key to do what the power button does.

It seems like it's a hardware issue, definitely.

Anyway, thanks for the reply.
