This is the official thread for the "Change Shoulder Buttons" app.
Compatibility:
At this point it looks like the app fully works for some devices, partially works for others, and not at all for some. Different ROMS may also affect functionality.
I am currently working on a "configuration" option which will allow users to calibrate the app for their specific device.
Update
This app has been updated.
No more restart required.
2.3
1. App is now free!
This app is now free!
Link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hatcyl.android.Change_Shoulder_Buttons
Description:
This app will allow you to use the shoulder buttons (L and R) of the Xperia Play for different functions.
You can use them to:
None: Stops the service. Shoulder buttons will stay at default.
Media: L will be previous and R will be next for media.
Camera: R will be focus and take picture.
Volume: L will be volume up and R will be volume down.
Up/Down: L will be up and R will be down.
Navigate: L will be browser back and R will be browser forward.
Advanced:
Tasker Support! (Kinda)
To change button modes do the following:
Action -> Misc -> Action Intent
Action: "com.hatcyl.android.Change_Shoulder_Buttons.ACTION_CHANGE_MODE"
Extra: "Mode:XXXXX"
See screenshot, no quotes, case sensitive.
Note: The game function of the buttons never get disabled. This app just listens for those buttons and then executes a command.
Coming Soon:
1. Custom Mode
2. Support for more Xperia Play devices / ROMS.
3. Real Tasker Support Way Later
4. Some automation maybe
Please post all questions, comments, bugs, and requests in this thread.
Thank You!
How about assigning the keys for volume control? In book reading Apps, L and R are much more convenient than the volume buttons when I have to flip the page.
A widget for quick mode switching could be nice as well.
Sure I can add that. But remember, a restart is still required.
Widget, probably not ... or maybe later ... im not so good with them.

Nice app...but when I set the shoulder buttons for media it keeps skipping and rewinding music when I'm playing a game... Lol.

You mean because you press L and R right?
Once I figure out how to change the buttons without a restart then we could use something like Tasker to change them based on different conditions. Camera if CAMERA is open, Music only if music app is opened, Game otherwise. Or maybe just manually change them faster.

Yeah it's when I press the L and R.
Oh ok...I'm not too familiar with changing stuff on my Play yet so I'm still learning as I go but great app nonetheless.

Why is this app not free?
For every app I sell (this and other apps) I will donate 50% of the PROFITS to other XDA members who have been useful to me.

*Note: Yes there is a free app (which may not be working right now?) and yes, we all know how to do this mod (Simple file change) and yes, I made this app in a few hours and yes, it can use some more work but, this is like a fund raiser for XDA members. Please don't ask "Why is this not free?"

This seems like a paid version for an app that is already free.
https://market.android.com/details?id=seb.button.changer
Same functions, same results.
Yep, there's already a free app by an XDA member.
any way to achive this without restart? Would it work if you assign each button to a separate app (similary to assigning to camera currently I assume and probably restart first time only). The app you assign simply check what is required in an extra config file which can be changed on the fly without need to restart. Is this possible at all or is there a particular limitation how android works with those buttons? Thanks in advance

Yup, I actually posted that in the OP.
It hasn't been working for some people including me, maybe different models are different.
Anyways, if this app sells at all that developer will be first in the donate list along with the guy who found a way to use the official PSX emulator with custom images.

This is coming soon, it was in the market description but I posted it in the OP.
About your idea, it wouldn't work for two reasons.
1. You can't assign a button to an app (that I know of)
2. You wouldn't want to open an app every time you hit a button (especially when playing a game) it would be too slow.
I am exploring two ideas to get this working.
1. Find what causes those files to be loaded. Find away to restart that and force it to load the files again.
2. A much harder way, but this one will work for sure (I've got a proof of concept but no time yet.)
Thank you for explaining. I look forward to the no reboot version. Page up and down option would be great. Many thanks in advance

Can you add functionality to the default web browser? Like make L be the back button and R be the Forward button?
I really liked that function on my PSP browser (years ago when I used it every so often).
Also, add the functionality to the default Launcher? L for next left screen, R for next right screen. I'm not sure if either of these is even possible, but just throwing some ideas at you!
I'd be down to purchase it if you added either one. Thanks!

Take that even further, how about a completely Xperia-Play optimized launcher? ADW is open source if not mistaken.

Ha ha, you guys are trying to change a simple file edit into a full blown alternate OS.
Sorry guys, not happening anytime soon, I still havent been able to change buttons without a restart yet!
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
I'd settle for the web browser L and R function
I will settle for pgdown pgup or even dpadup and down for shoulder buttons as long as they don't overwrite their function implemented already in games, emulators and camera mod apps. There is another post regarding shoulder buttons for ereaders - i'm away from my pc so cannot link - but it recommends another app there too.

Sorry, the files are different in 2.3.2 vs 2.3.3.
I will disable the app for now. I deserve that 1 star rating for that.
Anyways, download the attached file, extract the file inside and copy it (using any file manager, I use EStrong) to /system/usr/keylayout override any existing file.
Reboot afterwards, this should fix your issue.
Again sorry, I'm bringing the app down for now. I'll almost done with a big update that will not require restarts anyways.
It's alright dude! I fixed it myself, just restored from my backup. Thought you outa know though! Look forward to the no reboot version!!
(p.s. Yours is the only button change app that actually worked...apart from the obvious issue ...so thanks!!)
For anyone who was waiting. App has been updated.
No restart required anymore.
More modes coming soon.

This app pretty much uses the same approach I am going to use to translate buttons presses into touchscreen presses.
just wondering if theres any cheats for GTA III
Gosh i sure hope so xD The cheats were half the fun back in the day

Once setup type any gta3 supported cheat from the pc edition into the text box on the wifi keyboard site e.g. 'gunsgunsguns' (you wont receive a notification but it works)

Yes usb or I can send you a copy of my save with me on the second Island, some guns and some money. Currently that is what I can do.
So, I know there are other threads like this, but in the last few releases, the Xperia Play's controls have been implemented into the game. Its pretty sweet.
Here is a link to the developers FB page: CSPORT
Dev's website: cs-portable.com
The file hosting site the dev is using is incredibly slow, so I re-uploaded the file to mediafire, download it Here
So it has FULL support for touchpads too ?
I think so. I was playing it using them.
ok it seems so
But hos the f we are supposed to shoot ? I cant find any settings to change my controls (currently X is for shooting and triangle jumpping, so akward
Am I supposed to go rewrite .Cfg or what?

After your in the game you open up the menu and go to controls or settings whatever it says and it has an option to bind the shoot button to whatever you like. That option only appears after you are already in game not at the main menu. I don't know if it has been updated but you also have to reset it everythime you restart the game.
Hi, a while ago a friend of mine downloaded a game from google play,and now that i have ana android i wantet the game but he completely deleted it and does not remebre the name of the game.
Ok so the main objective in the game is to protect the doors of a castle.
You could spawn on certain places(ok everywhere except the path) 6 character.
The first 3 are a Knight whose color is blue i belive,an archer who is green and a mage who uses ice magic,blue i think.The second 3 are a litle different becouse you needed to purches them with litle blue dimonds they are basicly the same ecsept the colors.The knight was red as well as the mage,but i dont remember the archer.
You could also upgrade them so they atk spd,power and etc. increeses.
A litle about the game:from what i remember when he started the game there was like a landscape at the backround and you had to choose a castle icon which were the various chalanges to start.
The monsters that atacked were manny,i only remember a few:
An ice monster,rock monster,bat-sort(or dragon),orcs and i dont remember anything else.
If anyone knows the name of the game or similar games please share!
Thank you for your time!
It could be Mage Defence:

Well, i sometimes have that blackscreen problem but im not waiting for any music....i just press home button, kill all task with a task manager and then run the game again, always works for me.
It happens a lot with GTAVC. What I do is this: while at alleged black screen, long press Home to open recent apps, then select GTAVC again. It should start as intended.
Thanks i will try !!
It still black scren, i press long home button and select VC it still black screen
I go back to zeam launcher, kill all app, return to vice city and it still black screen
I installed APK but not open yet, then i transfer to Sdcard > Android > Obb the directory and after open the VC Apk, all things like they should did and it still black screen...

Thread closed. XDA does not permit the discussion of warez, and asking for help to test a game you downloaded before buying it is most certainly warez.
