I have tried a number of different jblend and jbed versions to launch java games on my touch dual. Almost all of them either produced errors, didnt launch or install the java files. I finally found one that worked which was a version of jbed called JRebeiro Esmertec Jbed which has a build ID: 20071119.3.1. This one launched all the java files perfectly.....
However, the only problem now is that I can't use the soft keys! I can use the D-pad and the keypad (numbers) to navigate through the menus, but the left/right soft keys don't work. For example, if I run Need for speed pro street, the first option is whether or not to enable sound. The 'yes' and 'no' icons show, but I cant select either soft key so I cant continue!!
I tried searching the forum and read through the whole 'midlet bible' thing but didnt find anything conclusive!
Does anyone know a solution? or even a midlet manager that has the soft keys working?

Strange, in my 3.1 copy (did you use the same as me? http://www.winmobiletech.com/092007MidletBible/JRebeiro_EsmertecJbed_20071119.3.1.zip ) works just great on my (several) Pocket PC's.
If it doesn't work at all, get Cloudyfa's 2.1: http://www.winmobiletech.com/092007MidletBible/Jbed.zip
First of all, thanks for the reply.
I had the same versions as you just showed and I had also previously tried Cloudyfa's version too. I tried out the ones you posted anyway just to be safe but I had the same problem on both...no soft keys. (BTW, The soft key buttons on screen work in the Jbed main screen, its just when I launch a java game that I cant select or use the soft keys).
What buttons do you use as the soft keys?
The only buttons left on my touch dual apart from the number pad is the start and end call buttons, the navigation/D pad, the volume up and down keys and the camera button. Only the navigation/d-pad buttons seem to when I launch a game in Jbed, but the other keys function as normal (if i press the call button, the phone dialer appears, or if i press the camera button, it launches the camera).
So are the soft key buttons on the touchscreen (icons shown on the touchscreen) meant to work? Or is the touch dual lacking the necessary buttons?

oic. I've always used hardware buttons; no wonder in-game softkeys don't work (they aren't supposed to).
use a button redefiner; for example, AEBPlus, to map left/right softkey functionality to the existing buttons (for example, Camera)
Thanks for that. I finally solved it!
I went and got AEBplus like you said and I noticed it showed the left and right soft keys eventhough there arent any on the touch dual. Then I went to check the actual buttons option in the windows setting tab and found that I can map some of the shortcut buttons as left/right soft keys! Everything works perfectly now. Just got to find the right buttons to map the left/right soft keys.
Finally solved that problem! I'm surprised no one mentioned this anywhere else.....probably because its a touch dual specific problem.

Hi,
I just received my new HTC PRO and am thrilled with the fact that all the function keys are gone.
Does anybody know if there is a way to program-in your own keyboard keys?
I am constantly trying to use such keys as "OK" or "Windows Start" or one of the soft keys.
Thanks for your help.

Emulate Directional Pad using smartphone hardware QWERT keyboard
Hello ,
I recently aquired a smartphone with a full qwert hard keyboard that is using trackball instead of the standard directional Pad. Result: Most WM apps (especially the GPS program I've tried) does not recognise the trackball and are unusable...
The phone is Toshiba G710.
I was wondering if there is a way (eg by AE Keyboard or something similar) to emulate the directional keys using the QWERT hardware keyboard of the phone. (eg E=up, D=down,,.. etc)
Looking arround in the internet could not find someone solving that problem (maybe because trackball is very non standard for these devices).
Any suggentions are welcome
Thanks
have same problem
does anyone can help? I flashed with wrong ROM, and now my d-pad can't go right and left (just up and down worked). If only it can changed into qwerty pad.

Correction. The programs seem to recognise the trackball as normal arrow keys. Problem is that almost all the GPS programs does not work without touchscreen!!
The only usable GPS program I found that far is PoiNav. I can't zoom or move the map though (cause of no touch screen).
In my "quest" to solve my problem I manage to use my hardware keyboard keys (O,P,L etc..) as shortcuts to run specific applications (like Virtuamouse toggle,AltTab,...).
I could not use them to replace arrow keys cause I tried with the unregistered version. (I only tried with k**** instead of c**** codes ,and k**** codes doesn not work in free version as I understand..).
@st4nd4l0n3 : Install AEKeyboard and use AEKMapScan.exe to find the codes that are created when using the problematic left & right. Then modify a .AEK configuration file to remap that codes to the codes that would be the correct ones. Hint : left,right,up,down are number of the same sequence eg 64,65,66,67...
I have an HTC HD2 running an Android Nand Rom. But the 'hardware' keypad is not working anymore (probably due to extensive use).
Im looking for some mod or rom which has these keys on screen so i can keep using the phone. Anyone who knows something like this or a different solution?
Thanks!
ps. the hang-up call/power key is still working. So i can still get it active.

Thanks, thats an option. no software solution for this problem possibly? anyone?
Hello it is possible with cyanogenmod based builds. In cm setting - tablet tweaks you can enable soft buttons. It is possible to emulate all key.

Hi there,
Currently i'm working on a project called the Gameboy Phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477155
I soldered the gameboy buttons on the motorola flipout keyboard buttons.
The only problem i am currently facing is that if i put the gameboy in my pocket the screen goes on.
Becouse the gameboy buttons will be clicked.
Is there anyway to disable the hardware buttons while the hardware keyboard is open? With a app are something?
Its android 2.1 btw
Thanks in advance
