Searched around alittle to see if anyone had found any means of doing this, but didn't find anything.
Anyone know if it's possible to assing the "settings" function to the browser key?
Thanks

Look here. It has a lot of information on it. You should be able to do with relative ease.
Cheers.
Sweet!, Worked like a charm with root explorer.
Just stumbled on this thread and thought id give it a shot on my K1. Everything went fine, files were same name and in same location, mounted the dir. Rw then changed my hardware button (the one thats Home/Back/Menu), saved the file with a backup but no changes were made. I even changed the buttons in the other file showing only hardware buttons and then rebooted but still nothing...
Im thinking that since this mod was for the TPT and Im on a K1, theres something Im missing. Any K1 owners had any success with re-mapping the hardware buttons?

may need to set permissions on file
You may need to set permissions on the file before you can save. Using "File Manager HD" I had to enable root explorer and mount systems folders under the settings and then add write permissions to Group and Others in the permissions dialog, probably don't need Others but I am lazy. Don't forget to change the permissions back after you save your changes. Incorrect permissions settings can sometimes really bork things.
Also seems that the settings might be a little different under ICS, I am getting "Touchscreen Toggled" instead of the menu after setting 150 to MENU.

On the Lenovo boards, it has been comfirmed in the released chineese manual, that pen only mode is avaible. SoSweet!
Menu's not allowed in ICS
Well, here is why remapping the browser button to MENU does not work in ICS, looks like we are no longer allowed to have a menu.

Still playing with it but it appears that no matter what I put on the line after key 150 I just get touch-screen toggled, which is useful but not what I want.

BTW doin' this on a Thinkpad Tablet

Hi all
Sorry to make a new thread but this is something that just does not make any sense. I took the plunge when 5.0* was released and I currently do not have the onscreen keyboard. There is a guy on these forums that was nice enough to help me out through gchat but I haven't gotten anywhere.
Just to be clear I have wiped several times and reflashed several times and I do not even have the MENU OPTION to enable the onscreen keyboard. The following picture should show what I mean (sorry I'm really bad at photoshop).
Anybody have a clue what to do? I'm willing to wipe again but it seems pointless because I've done it several times.
Also, I tried out the "G" version just to check it out and the onscreen keyboard comes up on this one.
That's odd. I installed 5.0.2H this morning and have no issues with the VK.
Is there a way to DBAN the G1? Something "better" than al+w? I'm desperate lol.
You must of not flaseheed correctly.
Make sure when you flash you press home and back together. Don't press Phone - Menu and Power
If you still have problems go into settings - Locale & Text
Make sure touchput Chinese is checked.
Mine works fine so yours should as well.
Good Luck
Is this Robbie? If it isn't, there is someone else with the same problem on another forum, so it isn't an isolated issue.

Thanks for posting that. At least I know I'm not losing my mind or something.

I've got bad news for you. Robbie forgot that he disabled it because he didn't know what he was clicking in settings.
He remembered this morning what he did, and now he's got it back. I hope your problem is as easy to solve.
One thing, it took me a few minutes to find mine, because I didn't realize that you have to click in the text box to have it appear.
Great. I guess I am losing my mind. Does anybody's "Locale & Text" look like mine?
71HC, could you check if /system/app/HTC_CIME.apk exists? )This is HTC's chinese touch input application and it's huge (>1M).) You can do this by typing "ls /system/app/HTC_CIME.apk" in Terminal or adb shell. if it's not, extract the file from the zip and adb push it to /system/app/ folder. Then reboot the phone. You make have to long press in a textbox to bring up the context menu and select input method, but the IME has to be enabled in Locale & text first.
Thanks for your reply. I appreciate it. I looked it up on terminal and it looks like its there. I also looked it up on Linda file manager and it seems to be there. Can I long press it and install it from there? I was hoping it would be missing so that your solution would work. Now I'm even more confused.
I went ahead and tried to install HTC_CIME.apk
It told me that textinput chinese could not be installed on this device
great
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about ho to tweak LCDDensity. I love this app. It makes everything fit in the screen on my Vibrant perfectly. The only minor complaint I have is that every time I want to switch the settings I have to reboot my phone. Is there any way to tweak this app so that I don't have to reboot my phone for the changes to take effect? I know absolutely nothing about programing so this might not be possible but I though I would put it out there.
Easiest way is unistall the app.
Use root explorer to go to your system folder. hit the button on top saying "mount R/W", longpress on the build.prop to choose open in text editor. scroll down to where you see "density=160" or something like that (should say 160 though). and press menu then save and quit.
Reboot.
Done.
Ignore the above poster who didn't read your post.
Sorry but there isn't a way to do it without rebooting, because the file that holds the information only gets read during boot.

i keep being asked which app i would like to perform actions - i make a selection & all is fine until the phone is rebooted, then off it goes again.
i've trawled the general system settings looking for a toggle but failed to find anything related to default settings storage.
any help appreciated
my set-up is in my sig.

Probably another program overriding your selections. Try try going to Menu button on your phone and select Settings option, scroll down to the Applications section and tap it. On the next screen, tap Manage Applications and then the All tab on the subsequent screen, scroll down the list of apps until you see the App in question listed and tap that entry. On the next screen look for the "Launch by default" section and hit the Clear defaults button. Reboot and select the default program you want and see if it sticks on the next reboot. Let me know if this helps.

good logical advice, which you would assume would do the trick.
unfortunately, it doesn't fix the problem
i was wondering if there's a file somewhere whch can be edited & locked?
im not 100% sure where those things are saved, maybe in settings.db file of the android settings app.
Check your phones app directory, there should be something like
com.android.providers.settings and com.android.settings
I could imagine that the filepermissions are wrong on certain files and thus your new selection are not saved.
i've searched for hours with no success for a db file. i do believe you are on the right trac but it'll take a smarter mind than my own to highlight where the setting is hiding.
there is a lockscreen toggle option on the redux2 rom, so i've asked over there.
thank you both for your thoughts
Hi all,
I'm having a general issue with cofiguring FPSe, every step I configure needs to be saved as the default config, else it won't get saved.
Then the overlay pad just won't go away, when I press "Disabled" nothing happens.
Is there a trick to configure this emulator properly or is the interface just unnecessarily complicated ??
(Running CM9.1 FXP 137 btw, if thats any help)

FPse is fraught with problems such as the one you just mentioned. Many of the settings simply don't save, something the bumbling dev seems incapable of fixing.
To answer your question, I found that you can hide the overlay pad from showing by deselecting each button set individually from the overlay pad config.
The ultimate fix would be to resign FPse to the dustbin (where it belongs) and to use ePSXe instead
Yeah I figured that out as well, by just unsetting each button. But yeah I agree that ePSXe is way better, all I'm still missing is touchpad function and some sound fixes
FPSe used to be perfect for me tho, but at one point in development it just started to get complicated and fall apart + now I have to fiddle with my build.prop in order to get the circle button going and stuff, which is annoying and I actually don't want to do that, every other app seems to get to it going correctly as well without modifying anything.
Well, I guess I keep my eye on ePSXe then
FPSe 0.11.41 fixes a lot of things
"O" Button does now work and the "disable overlay pad" function does now work properly as well !!!
All thats missing now, is the touch pad implementation w/o messing with the build.prop

Breaks compatibility with certain games for me, so still unusable.
I'm trying to enable Accessibility features (e.g. the Universal Switch). However, I can't enable any of the features, as I can't for whatever reason press the "OK" button when the dialog asking for permissions pops up; I've tried it for different Accessibility features, pressing "OK" does nothing ("CANCEL" takes me out of the dialog, as expected). For reference, a screenshot of the dialog I'm referring to is located at imgur with the URL identifier "Lwg0seF" (I'm a new user, forgive me for not being able to directly post the screenshot here :/ )
I have no idea how to circumvent this. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this?
Please help, I can't use my phone properly unless I get this working. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I don't know how this happened, but I've just tried it again (haven't made any changes), the permission granting works now. It seems the problem solved itself somehow.
did you installed a rom that was debloated of samsung software ?
because i´ve had this problem before and it turned out the rom i was using needed the samsund TTS and voice software for me to use the accessibility option i needed
not sure if this is your case, hope it helps
