I have a MX PX5 for Opel Insignia that uses CAN bus and don't have any physical buttons. But now I need access to a physical power button to get in to recovery. Does anybode knows how the physical power button usually is connected? I have some inputs and outputs that are unused, any of them?
On Non buttons headunits, the recovery is got by means of using the reset button hole
I have tried that a lot of times and not gotten that to work.
Use a keyboard.. search my posts. I have explained it many times

edit- did not read what you said above.
I didn't think the ROM version mattered. Reset button does not work?
Hold button until restart, release, then click once.
Click once to advance menu, hold for enter.

Hi guys, this is my first post here.
I have rooted my Galaxy Y Pro B5510 and everything was ok.
I tried to remap a key from the system files in the root.(keylayout)
But first I backuped that floder to my SDcard.
I changed a key and reset the phone. The change I made was working so I wanted to return it to it's default. So I coppied my backedup files over the edited ones and reset the phone again.
But when the phone was turned on I couldn't use my physical keyboard anymore.
By the way earlier I used an application called "keyremapper". Can it be the source of the problem?
I have limited access to menus since I can't use the go back button on the keyboard and I can't even use the power on/off button, volume up/down button and so on...
The keyboard is completely locked.
I tried to re-copy my backedup files over the system/usr/keylayout/ using touchscreen with the application called "root explorer" but that didn't fix it either.
Guys can you please help me out here?
Thank you in advance.
Nevermind, fixed it.
Same problem, please help

Hi, Theodenn!
Recently I've lost control of keyboard on b5510 - it doesn't react at all. Touchscreen works well.
"Volume up" and "Volume down" buttons - the same, do not respond.
The situation looks like yours pretty well!
Please, could you explain, how did you manage to fix this problem?

i think boot it while holding these button at same time : "volume up"+"home button"+"power button"
after that navigate using "volume up" or "volume down" and pick option number 3 and 4 using "home button"
look forward to help u :laugh:

Thank you for your reply: I tried to do that but it did not work.
I think this is because buttons "volume up" and "home button" do not work from the very beginning - they do not work even at the moment when I power the phone. I think so, because after the operating system is loaded - they do not work too.
Actually all the row of buttons above the typing keypad is also off (or locked). Optical joystick and keypad are off.
Only "Power button" and touchscreen are active and respond as earlier.
May be smth. else can be done?
The power button of my i9023 completely died so I remapped the search button as power button by modifying the key layout file in /system/usr/keylayouts/ but it seems that hardware touch keys are inactive when the screen is off.
Is there a way to enable them? I already tried adding the WAKE flag but it doesn't work.

These keys are not kept on when the screen is off. You'd be better using something such a volume wake (wake phone by pressing vol + or -) instead. Lots of roms have it in their options.

I already have the volume wake but it doesn't work when listening to music so I installed Tap Tap to unlock also with the proximity sensor; this thread was more for curiosity and aesthetic reasons than for real need.
So, from what I understand, that behaviour is hardware related thus impossible to be changed by software.
Hm, I have one question, is something like this:[KERNEL]Slide 2 Wake possible on our device?

I believe it would need to be implemented in the kernel. I don't think anybody took the time to check deep enough to do that for our Nexus.
Kinda wish we had it too.
hello.
my power button on my galaxy s2 is not functioning properly. I think what happened was it got pushed too many times over the year and now its jammed, causing it to resent itself and glitch randomly at times.
I want to permantly disable the hardware power button. I've tried several apps but not seem to permanently disable it as it occasional still works sometimes. (my phone at random still resets itself)
Apps I've tried
xposed + xposed additions (to remap keys)
button remap app
Anything else I can do? I was thinking about just trying to pry to home key out of its socket but that seems a bit silly..

if u cant, try adding soft buttons to your phone. that would give you a workable solution.

the thing is, im trying to disable the home button because its jammed so i think its whats causing the random resets on my phone.
I would replace the home button but im comfortable opening up the phone.

The xposed module gravitybox has button functionality replacement, I think.
I am using the steering wheel controls on my intel based Joying unit. I have a Vol+, Vol-, and Mute button on my steering wheel. These are working well, but it would be GREAT if I could program it to change track if I hold the button down for a few seconds. I remember this being an option on the hardware keys on my Android phone, and was hoping we could set that up on our car stereos.
Any thing out there that'll do that?
Is your HU a Joying MCTD?
If yes, you can set different actions for "short press" and "long press" of all swc buttons
Thanks for the response! My HU is a Joying but it's the new Intel unit with Android 5, so I think it's a bit different. I don't see any option for short or long press on the "Steering" app that sets up the buttons.
You read my mind, I was asking myself this question!
I wonder if there's any similar on the intel joying units

Mine is not Joying but has many similarities with Joying and its using Intel Sofia processor.
Like mention previously, In factory setting there is a setting for press & long press button.
Even though its for on screen button, I think it worth to try for steering wheel control.
FYI, password for factory setting menu for my unit is "m123456".
Since all the units i had/have are buttonless, and i am about to buy one with buttons,
let me ask anyone with a unit with physical buttons
Do we have a way to customize the physical buttons?
Does MTCD tools able to sense the physical buttons as it does with the SWC?
I remember in PX3 we had MTC-keys.. has anyone tried that on px5?
i Know about factory setting remaping, but what i am interested is controlling 3d party apps like poweramp for example..
MTCDTools should work to remap the buttons

Thank you mate. I will have the unit in a few days to test..
Remap Home-button A-Media PX5 MTCD MX Head Unit Android 6.0.1
Hi guys,
My PX5 MTCD MX Head Unit has a strange problem. The Home-button doesn't activate the Android Homepage. Instead it activates the FM Radio when you press it the first time. Pressing it the second time activates the Music Player. Is this a Known-Error? Is there some kind of alternative software to remap the Home-button.
I have tried MTCD_Tools already. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I would say that my problem can't be solved with it.
Thanks.
Factory settings is where you will find the physical button mappings.
I have the homebutton long press turning off the display. Lots of options to be had and no need to use third party software to achieve your desired button config.
I have one more question about this. Is it possible to re-map all buttons? I ask because the Witson V5780-S has no home button and no DVD button. Instead it has prev/next buttons, which I do not need. So would it be possible to change these as well? Currently I am trying to figure out, which one to buy and this would be some hindrance.
Anyone found a working mtc key alternative for the px5 oreo devices?
On my MX unit i dont have any physical buttons and the radio panel mappings come from canbus and are fixed. Mtcd tools and factory settings dont recoqnize any presses....
also wonder if there is a double/triple press solution like in mtc-keys
Dave
Anyone?

I'd like to get back to this after buying a Dasaita Max6. Yes this works - partially. You can define a short and long press to the buttons, but only a handful of basic features. I'd like to bind the BAND button to my DAB+ app instead of the FM radio that I never use. That's not possible with the factory settings.
How can I bind a button to a specific app?
