Greetings,
Currently on my shield I am having trouble mapping my keys for Spectral Souls.
The issue is by default in some apps, the shield performs a "back" action the a b button press.
This prevents me from mapping the gamepad completly, I am curious if anyone else has come across this problem and has a solution.
Thanks.

Hey everyone! Im new in smartphone world, so i need your help.
Problem is that I dl-ed a game (tomb raider) and it requires arrow keys to move, but TD2 doesn't have arrow keys. I tought maybe its possible to assign left and right keys on volume buttons and up and down keys on call button and home button.
Except that they should only be like that in games.
So if you know how this can be done, then I would be grateful for your replies.
Thank you!
Hey everybody, I've been having some trouble with my Nationite Midnite (Wits A81E).
My hardware buttons (softkeys) for back, menu, and home are broken. I have an app installed that lets me use a touchscreen button for them but the only one that actually works is the home screen button. What I want to try to do is edit the key mappings so that a long press of the functioning volume buttons could be assigned to back and menu. If anyone knows anything about this, please help me! Thanks in advance!

I've remapped some of the touch buttons to control buttons in emulators (ex: In a NES emulator, Search is A, Back is B.
The buttons work, however, when I press them they "disable" the screen and vice-versa. I'm thinking this is by design so you don't accidentally press a button while using the screen.
What I'm wondering is, does anyone know of a way to disable this?
I'm also trying to do it for SCUMMVM since many games are hard to play without right click. Right clicking is done by holding down the search button and then tapping the screen. And the Triumph only seems to let you use either the screen or the touch buttons, not both at the same time.
The phone is rooted by the way.
Thanks for any info!
Hi. Got Sidekick 4G a week ago and really like this phone so far, but there is one problem: system detects only 2 simultaneously pressed keys on qwerty-keyboard. Problem appears in 16-bit console games emulators, where I have to press 3 buttons at a time. Is that impossible on this device? It only detects 2 buttons and ignores 3rd press. I'm wondering, is this a hardware issue, or possibly could be fixed by firmware? I'm using GenericGinger 4.1
Thanks.

You're dealing with a hardware issue there.
The only other keys the device can register with two keys depressed are the hardware buttons that line the outside of the device (home, menu, jump, camera, and volume).
You can use this to your advantage.
One solution would be to map the back key to something else and map the back key where the jump key currently is.
That way, you will be able to press the trackpad and the (former) back key with your right thumb.
It's a huge tradeoff and I wouldn't do it, but it will provide a natural feeling game controller.
You could take it a step further and also remap the menu button as well..
Unfortunately, these new touchscreen phones do not have the d-pad the Danger Hiptop did. It sure makes designing software a pain in the ***.
It doesn't seems to be working either: when I'm holding two keys on qwerty keyboard and press Back key, nothing's nappening. So no matter what keys, only two keyspresses can be detected at a time. But thanks for reply anyway.
Hello, I just got an nVidia Shield Tablet and Shield Controller.
The controller is pretty good but I have two little issues:
- The home button, being tactile, not a button, is too easy to accidentally press while using the analogue joysticks, so I find accidentally exiting a game while playing. How can I disable that button?
- Also, the + and - volume buttons on the bottom of the gamepad, while not tactile, are still too easy to accidentally press. Can those be disabled as well?
Thanks for your help!
