Hey guys,
I just got my shiny new Asus Transformer. Now it's time to make it usable. The first step on this journey is going to be to figure out how to remap the keys on the hardware keyboard.
Preferably, I would remap the "Lock" key to be a "Delete" key. I would also remap the "Home" key to be the "Right-Click/Context Menu" key. (An absolute necessity, since none of the RDP clients I can find support the right mouse button.)
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. I know that this has been accomplished on phones with hardware keyboards, however I have yet to find anyone who has made the attempt with the Asus Transformer.
Thank you in advance to anyone giving it a try...

Hi. I'm trying to do something I can't figure out how, so I need some help.
I'm connecting to my server from my Hermes with PocketPuTTY. On my server I have Midnight Commander, which is easy to use etc. The only problem is I'm missing some keys on the keyboard, especially the arrow keys, which are not mapped with the same scancodes as a PC appearantly, and the function keys F1-F10.
So I'm looking for 2 things: 1) A program that can map scancodes to the keyboard, and 2) the actual scancodes for the arrow keys and function keys on a PC so I know what to map.
Any help here is greatly appreciated. I also want to know if what I want to do is possible at all, at the moment I'm not too sure it can be done...
Thanx, Artur
maybe this could lead you in the right direction

I've got a problem configuring iGO8 to use the hardware keys, such as the volume up, volume down, and back key. I know the keycodes for these keys, but when I edit the keybind section in iGO it won't respond to any hardware key input. Did anybody get this to work on his Topaz? If so, how?
I'm using iGO 8.3.2.96054. These are my edits to the keybind so far:
x75="VOLUMEUP"
x76="VOLUMEDOWN"
x875="PREVSCREEN"
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Zoom in zoom out hardkeys really needs
The topic has disappeared onto the 4th page by now, so I thought I might bump it. Can anybody please help me on this? I have done more internet research now, but I still have no answer.
i think its waste of time cause when newer version of igo come out it will support topaz buttons by default.

In order to have working volume keys BEFORE starting igo you HAVE To change screen keyboard from HTC to default Windows one. HTC Keyboard is hooking to volume up/down key presses and iGo doesn't see their state.
How would I do that? I searched in the settings for an option, but I can't find a setting to change back to the standard windows keyboard. I have found a setting allowing me to choose between touch input and a keyboard, but the latter seems to be a hardware keyboard option as is sets itself back. The touch input option is selected by default, it's the default HTC setting.

Hi,
I recently bought a mini bluetooth keyboard for use with my Asus A696 (WM 6.0).
It works very well and I'm very happy with it; although there is a problem: the "FN" key on my keyboard does not seem to be recognized by WM. This is a problem as I need to press FN and another key together to get a question mark and some other important things. If I now press FN and the desired key together, it acts like I didn't press the FN key.
Can someone help me solve this?
Thanks in advance!
I still did not find any solution. Is here really noone who can help me?

Hey all,
So I just recently bought the keyboard dock (a little late to the game I know ) and I was wondering if I could add some functionality to it.
First am I able to change what apps open with the function keys? Mainly I want to change the browser button so that it opens Chrome Beta instead of the stock browser.
Also can I add keyboard shortcuts in various apps? Specifically is there any way I can add cntrl+T or cntrl+F etc to Chrome Beta?
Finally, when I lock my screen using the lock function key I cannot turn the screen back on without reach up and clicking the button on the tablet. Is there a button on the keyboard that does this? Does it not work in ICS?
That's about all I can think of right now. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I don't know the answers on all your questions yet.
You can bring your tablet to life by swiping your finger over the touchpad, then press the home button to unlock.
Don't think there is a function to attach buttons to self-defined apps for now, anybody: correct me when i'm wrong.
See here for the browser button issue. As far as remapping other keys, that's dependent upon each application.
And if the TF101 w/ ICS is anything like the TF201, there should be a setting for dock power saving. If it's enabled, then the tablet won't wake up to key presses on the dock.

Thanks for this! I was wondering how to do this. I just recently gave out trying to figure it out since the key press is one inch away from my screen icon LOL. I have to say, Google needs to replace the stock browser with Chrome in future Android versions. What an improvement!!
Nice bike in your avatar. Here's my track monster after I mangled my old racebike.
