Some button issues with TNT

I've been pretty happy with this phone, especially since I got WM6 on it but I'd like to be able to use Morphgear as an emulator. When I do, I like to use it in "west" orientation with my left thumb on the control pad and my two main buttons as Button 1 (the "mail" button) and Button 5 (the "comm manager" button) so I can press them at the same time with my thumb on 1 and my index finger on 5. When I try to map the buttons that way in Morphgear, it calls Button 5 Button 6 instead and it doesn't work in game. I thought it might be a Morphgear issue but I've tried it with other emulators and it doesn't work in them either. Why is that? Is there any way to correct it? Another annoying issue is that whenever I accidentally press the center of the control pad and Button 1 at the same time it wants to align the screen.
Any help?

that combination is probably a built in feature to pull up the align screen program for your device, and i am pretty sure can be removed by tweaking the reg. settings that correspond to the short cut.
You should post your issue under the tnt rom thread to avoid creating redundant threads.
cheers
try vjcalibrula .
it may turn calibration combo off... it works on wizard, at last..

Sony Smartwatch MN2 back gesture.

Folks,
My hand movements are really limited and I'm not able to pinch this little screen.
Does anyone know if it is possible to customize this gesture? Like a double tap, slide it to the left or even the power button?
Thank you very much!
Best regards,

You only need to touch the screen with two fingers at same time.
Sliding 2 fingers also seems to work. I think the 2 finger pinch gesture is so sensitive that the act of pressing 2 fingers to the screen will register as a pinch.

Yes! I usually just press the home button and keep my thumb there. Usually, it goes straight to the home screen and I don't have to see the lock screen. :good:
Thank you for the reply man! This is helping, but I'm looking for a way without even pressing the button, just laying my finger on the button, is it possible?

Afaik, it's not possible.
But you can use it in combination with air gesture to light up the screen first, then unlock. It's found in dexterity & interactions in Accessibility!

Having trouble unlocking with fingerprint with one click

I'm trying to unlock my phone by just clicking on the home button and holding my thumb there (for the fingerprint sensor), but almost every time it doesn't read the fingerprint and I have to lift my thumb and place it back down to scan. I know it's a minor issue but I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if you've managed to figure it out. Thanks
Read one thumb several times in fp settings
For me it helped a lot.

Put your finger on the scanner and wake up with the power button. For me it seems to be the movement caused by the pressing down of the home button that confuses the scanner. If the finger moves just the slightest bit during reading, then it must be lifted and put down again.
Holding the phone with one hand and pressing the home button with the finger on the other hand also works as you can press down and hold the finger more still that way. It is the one hand wake up and leaving the finger on the scanner that almost always fails for me.
The fastest one hand way for me is to quickly press the home button, lift the finger and then put it down again. This way you can be sure the finger is not moving across the scanner as it is read.

Note 10+ 2 big screw ups ?

I don't know if I am the fool here but has the hard press area on the screen on note 9 been removed from note 10+ ?
I aware I have tried hard pressing all over those screen to no avail.
Also another issue is the fingerprint scanner. It's working fine for me regardless to other people's reports but I have to press the damn power button to turn the display on now.
With note 9 I just placed my finger on the back of the phone and it always unlocked flawlessly and now no hard press and I can't just place my finger on the screen to turn the screen on.
Is there no way to make a hard press region in the screen even if third party software?
Has anyone found a AOD theme for note 10+ with a fingerprint mark on the display so I can always see where to exactly place my finger without having to press power button ?

As far as I know hard press time button is gone I also have the note 9 and I'm on the upgrade program and I've upgraded to the note 10 plus
I havemt recieved the jiffy bag yet of samsung to return the note 9 but if I'm honest I'm thinking of returning the note 10 I cannot stand the fingerprint scanner and the camera punch for me just spoils the whole experience of a great display
And there is also all the health sensors,headphone jack,iris scanner
I have set the always on display to tap to display. So I can either tap the display then use my fingerprint, or I actually can just use the fingerprint directly (if I am at the approximate correct position).
My only issue is that my fingerprints are messed up from dryness and working on rough stuff. So, it takes a bit of time for the fingerprint reading to register (and I have to press pretty hard).

Yea I am thinking of sending it back as well. I'll give it a few more days to fool around with before I make my decision.
I have mine setup to wake up when I pick it up, and enable face recognition along fingerprints since the on screen reader sucks.
The face recognizition is almost instant. No idea how secure it is, but works well

1) Hard press - meaning that when on home screen, tap and hold on an icon to get context menu? - If yes, then it is still there
2) I don't have to turn the screen on to be able to unlock the phone. You just need to be precise where you place your finger while the screen is dark

No hard press as in it works as a home button which was a great feature for a phone without a physical home button.
