Okay I haven't posted before.
And I know xda is rather strict with the rules so I've thoroughly searched for what I'm looking for and I really hope I'm posting in the right place.
Because I haven't found it and so I hope someone can help me out.
Recently I bought an external keyboard that connects via bluetooth to my Galaxy Note II N7100. I bought it because my school allows me to take notes on the device instead of hand writing everything.
But one day, I was in the library doing some homework and I got a little bored.
So I opened the '30th anniversary of pacman' game that Google once put on their page (if you don't know what I'm talking about, just Google "30th anniversary of Pacman Google").
To my surprise, the keys on the external keyboard were able to control my Pacman!
So this got me thinking.
What if I could control more than just Pacman with my keyboard?
Boost 2, for example?
So i was wondering, is there anyway I'd be able to control the accelerometer with my arrow keys?
And if so, can someone tell me how i would do this?
I've rooted my phablet and I'm able to decompile/recompile, navigate and edit files, etc.
I just need to know what exactly needs to be changed to allow such a feat.
So please, for the sake of procrastination...
Help?
Thanks in advance,
Josh.

Hi everyone.
I have my new Touch Pro and i saw it have a "full" TouchPad under the Screen.
My question is, might it be possible to display a Mouse-courser and control it with this TouchPad?
I dont know if this is usefull.
Badly i never coded for Windows Mobile, so is someone thinking this would be a nice application and want to code something like this?
Maybe if i get this damn Microsoft Visual Express Edition running, i will try something myself.
//Edit: just like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpKQOP9LJRU
It's a good idea, the touchpad is even multi-touch capable...
hate it on i900...
could be more interesting on touch pro/diamond, since the surface is larger
Hi everyone Im using remote touch for this. take a look at that freeware on this site here. as it is a beta there is no further guide on how to use this tool. anyway figure it out for yourself. it works for me, not always but it does most of the time.
have fun
hm.
maybe you did not understand me or i dont know if remote touch can control a mouse on your PocketPC and not on your Desktop PC.
best look at the movie in my first post to get a impression how i was thinking for a use of this touchPad.
Yes, like Samsung-i900 (Omnia). It's possible?
i think it is possible (but i am really new in WinCE developing).
I have finaly succesfully installed an IDE on my Work-PC.
And i think i also found somethink to move the "mouse".
Now i only need to install the IDE on my Home PC, loading DLLs into the program and i need to look into the SDK for the TouchPad. (Badly i have read that it has only one event that reads the rotations? this would be bad.)
Of course it would be faster if someone that is a lot more experienced in WinCE developing would try it.
Hello, I was the first one to come up with this idea. Check it out here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431522
Is it possible to make the area around the Dpad as touch buttons (touching the up button = pressing the up button, etc)? Since the Dpad is hard to press, it makes some games kinda unplayable...
Hi all, I'm searching for a program I had on my Diamond when I was running windows mobile 6.1. It allows you to swipe your finger, from up to down or vice versa, on either side of the touchpad to launch an assigned program.
I have no idea what it's called and can not for some reason find any information about it at all. If someone out there knows what it is called (or better yet a link to it), I would be extremely grateful.
Thank you for your time and please don't tell me that I have been using this program in my imagination for the last six or so months. ;-)
I knew I wasn't crazy (completely)
Amazingly no one relpied with in almost 24hrs. I guess no one likes me here . On the plus side I found the application . It's name is Butler and can be found here
Code:

Thanks anyway people. I hope at least one person finds this useful.
Hi guys,
I'm in the process of making an app for my HD2, which will be the first time I have ever programmed anything for a mobile phone
Is it possible to add a new tab? I imagine it is. So how does one go about adding a new tab? Is there some sort of HTC HD2 API documented somewhere that I can consult?
Much appreciated if you can help I've done a bit of searching on the forums and haven't found anything that answers my first question.
The only app. I've ever seen that is embedded in Manila as a seperate tab is found here
Maybe you can contact the developer?
Good luck (hope you come up with something useful you can share with us?)
Thanks, I've just sent the dev an email
If it works as I plan it to work, I shall share it
The dev didn't not create it
Manila TV PLayer is a tab to add in TF3D & TF3D2 but in this the landscape don't work properly.
This add-on is based on tab from orange tab tv i'm modificated to work with all languagues and other streams.
It's orange that created it
Hi Guys,
I´m thinking really hard now about buying myself the Samsung Galaxy Note. However, what I really need it for as wel, is navigating in a hopefully relaxing way. Over the years I grew fond of working with the TomTom Navigation software on my Windows devices (the HTC HD2 is now my latest), but untill now (as far as I know), TomTom has no real navigation software purely for the Android devices. So, I stumbled on to the "SYGIC" navigation software and started reading about it.
I read that SYGIC could give "some problems" on the Galaxy Note, but fortunately, I recently read (I forgot where) that people are working with it now on their Note flawlessly with the latest SYGIC upgrade. Also I read, that the Note could not navigate in "Landscape", wich I'm very sorry to find. However, could anyone please tell me if this is because the Note is not simply able to, or is it just the navigation software itself? In that case, could anyone tell me if "SYGIC" is able to navagate in "landscape" on this device, or, for that matter, can anyone tell me wich navigation software DOES navigate in "landscape" on the Galaxy Note?
And last but not least: if the Galaxy Note is NOT able to let you navigate in "landscape", are you guys familiair allready with some kind of a "patch" or procedure, that could solve this problem? I know that I had the same problem with my HTC HD2 at the time, but then I found a piece of sofware that made the TomTom software navigate in "landscape" as well.
I hope to hear from you soon; Thank you!
(My appologies for my poor English!)

I can't speak specifically for the Note, but I have an S2 and it allows rotation in the native navigation app. I'd be very surprised if it doesn't work on the Note. Also, if it doesn't then that's down to the app, not the device (assuming of course that the Note does support rotation ))
There's app(s) available on the market that force specific rotation for specific apps - that may be helpful for you. I'll have a look and see if I can find one.
Edit: This will do the trick...

You can set specific things to happen on specific events, the one in question being your navigation app running. You can make it enable rotation when the app runs. I was hoping you could force orientation with it, but you can't. Still definitely worth a shot.
Thank you for your reply. I'll remember this link for the moment I'll have my Note...
