Its my trackball click, key 272. I'm able to use it only during CWM recovery (such as key test) but can't use it while actually using my phone itself. Like for games or browsing internet like I used to.
I use a rooted my touch 4g with the latest aokp rom
Edit: if I hold down trackball while moving to a general direction it registers as a click, VERY inconvenient for playing my usual games requiring a trackball. I also tried exploring files such as qwerty.kl and such using androzip text viewer but got caught in an endless loading loop

Edit again: I believe this is related to why I can't trackball click.

I'm a newbie mindlessly surfing Google for answers all day, please if anyone could help me find a workaround
Edit: I've been up all night and managed to find a quick fix (still sucks for trackball-specific games during those split-second moments) I downloaded buttonremaper from xda and switched my menu key to dpad center.
It works for the most part, but like I stated earlier I'm still stuck to making the phone recognize the dpad center (it says its key 272 in CWM recovery key test)
Also, I have heard dpad center can also be key 232?
Bump?
Your first reaction to this might be, why would anyone need this on a touch screen device?
This is why:
I have a muscular disease which makes my body very weak and I’m using an electrical wheelchair. On my wheelchair I have a Bluetooth module which allow me to operate the mouse pointer using the joystick on my wheelchair. I can move the mouse pointer and with a quick push to the left I do a click. Since a click is being made by quickly pushing the joystick to its side I can never click and move the pointer at the same time. Because of this I can’t use any functions or apps which requires drag and drop, like e.g. playing Wordfeud.
My dream solution would be:
A widget were I quickly and easily can turn drag-lock on and off by clicking on it. When active the first click would behave like the button is pressed down, until I make a new click which then would release it.
Questions:
Is it possible to make a function like this for Android? And if so, does anyone here have the knowledge to please make such a widget/app/service? I guess it needs to be some kind of background service so it can be active even when other apps are in the foreground.
(Hope I'm not breaking any rules by saying this, but I would even be happy to pay a small fee for your efforts if you can accept PayPal.)
Hi guys,
I'm looking for suggestions for a specific type of remote control software, I used something long ago during the Gingerbread days but I cannot find it at all...
I want to be able to use my phone as a mouse using the accelerometer (something like this app) for a computer over LAN but with the added option of having an on screen button or something which opens up a keyboard on my phone for typing on the computer. I don't need to see the computer screen on my phone such as in TeamViewer. I tried using a regular bluetooth keyboard and mouse but somehow the range suffers in certain spots where I sit, and I have battery issues...
Feature Wishlist: Any added functionality like also working over the internet, volume button support, not needing a server application, good ui, etc will be a bonus.
Thank you!
So finally after millions of google searches, discussions etc I was finally able to find a perfect app for touch emulation.
Requirements:
1. Phone must have root access.
2. SE Linux needs to be set to permissive.
3. A (supported) controller and an otg cable. Should work with Bluetooth controllers as well.
Follow the below steps and it should work without any problems :
1. Download Tincore key mapper from play store and give it all the permissions it needs ( display over other apps etc) in the app settings- other permissions.
2. Set SE Linux to permissive. You can do this using an app or the android terminal itself. (Google is your friend)
3. Open the app and grant SU permissions to it.
4. It'll show a tutorial and information. Just skip it or read it if you want to.
4. Go in the settings of the app and go-to devices : touchscreen.
5. For now don't change anything it the output device. Tick everything except Haptic feedback and Invert touch generated Y. (screenshots attached)
6. Now connect your controller using an otg (or pair it using Bluetooth)
7. Click on the search icon (device discovery) select the necessary devices. I myself select System, USB, BT and touchscreen. (screenshot attached).
8. Now, click on the three dot menu and click discover devices. You should get a popup now to allow the app to use the controller. you might need to minimise/deactivate the app in the menu to be able to allow the app to use the controller. If you didn't get any popup then recheck if the controller type is selected in device discovery. If you still don't get any pop-up, your controller might not be supported by the phone.
Click on Minimize/ deactivate to minimise the app.
9. Now just open the game / app you want to use with the controller (or even use a screenshot of the controls ). Open the app from the notification tray.
10. Click on the screen and then keep on pressing/ holding the keys on the controller and you should see the corresponding key on the screen. Just drag the key to the part of the touchscreen that you want to simulate.
11. Do the same with all the keys / analog sticks.
12. Click on the "tick" icon and check if touches are being simulated. (Enable show taps in developer options)
Note : if the app detects the controller but touches aren't simulated change the touch output device to NVT CAPACITIVE TOUCHSCREEN in Devices: Touchscreen.
About the application:-
Tincore Keymapper is an Android application.
This application is a transformer/creator of connected periferals.
It allows you to convert or create input devices like gamepad, touchscreen, mouse etc... into a different ouput device that you physically don't have on your tablet, phone, hdmi tv stick etc...
Devices can internal or connected though USB, Bluetooth or networked. (Source: tincore official Wiki http://tincore.freewiki.in/index.php/Tincore_Keymapper )

Hi thanks for this post, but do you have any idea on how to remap the mocute 058? Its a one sided gamepad. So I need my right tumb on the screen but it wont work. Display touching and pressing buttons at same time wont work together. It has something to do with android, because on other mapping apps, even with autoinput+tasker it wont work. tried also with mapping volume buttons. same thing System wide.

I don't really get what you're asking. If you're saying that you are unable to use the touchscreen and the gamepad at the same time, I remember it was working with my controller. I'll recheck and reply you with results.

yes sir! exactly what I mean just saying that the same problem does happen also with other apps
PS: I have another controller but the dead-zone on the right stick makes it even harder to play pubg, tried the touch center renentering options (mapping) but... still to hard to hold camera on moving objects. xD

You can give it a try. I don't see why it won't work

Need help for tincore keymapper.
Hello guys. I'm trying to get a macro button for a game. I need a specific touch input but don't know how to get it.
I have the normal Tincore_Mt and I also have one called sec_touchscreen. Can someone share how I get nvt capacitive touch?
Hello, I installed the tincore keymapper application, all the settings work great, I assigned all the keys, but when I activate the mouse does not disappear, when I move the screen it appears on the mouse, how can I solve this?
Anyone who wants to use tincore keymapper to play racing games like the asphalt series, I have a tutorial here that could help you.

does this still work with android 13 ? i can't get it to work. i tried on raspberry pi with androdi 11 + 13. The touch event just not happen when i trigger the defined button-events.
Hello XDA community!
I've done brief google-fu trying to work around issue I have found myself struggling with with nothing to show for it so I come to ask experts because surely, this being such a fundamental problem someone must've already tackled it, right?
So my problem is, I try to use my Android device (in this case POCO X3 NFC, but considering getting Android tablet specifically for this purpose if there is a workaround to issue I'm about to describe since my iPad is nothing more than expensive paper weight it seems) as a client device to access remote desktop and use BT mouse and keyboard to go along with it. Everything is sorta kinda working... except it doesn't as soon as you get to interact with it. ESC and few other keys prioritise Android shortcuts over application, same with right mouse button. I don't think I need to explain why right mouse button closing remote desktop app (Parsec and Moonlight) and booting me back to app launcher instead of opening the context menu on remote desktop is a MAJOR problem. I've found TeamViewer to work alrightish, it catches mouse clicks and button inputs and prevent app from closing itself... if it only wasn't a steaming pile of dog**** to work on - obviously desire here is to keep using VASTLY superior remote desktop experience that either Parsec or Moonlight provides with the benefit of using BT mouse and keyboard.
Is there ANY way that Android system button shortcuts could be completely disabled? I don't want my F-keys to adjust volume... Nor do I want my ESC key or mouse right click boot me back into app launcher...
Also, as a bonus if there's a way to significantly decrease mouse cursor sensitivity it would be greatly appreciated because holy **** moving mouse 1 inch on a desk on lowest setting Android allows for would scroll through several dozen screens worth of content...
I've found this to be a problem on iOS as well but unlike iOS being left at Apple's mercy I kinda expect Android to be more maliable by end-user.
Any takers?
