How to disable all Keyboard Shortcuts? - Android Apps and Games

Hello World,
I have a SG Note, with Lineage 7.1 and a bluetooth keyboard attached to it.
It is *highly* unnerving, when I am in the middle of some other task and the browser pops uo, because I touched the wrong key combination by accident.
Yet even so I found the button in "Settings" where it lists the pre-defined app shortcuts, I can not find the option to change/disable the same.
I'd be grateful for any help here.

Keyboard shortcuts for OK n Start ???

hi guys,
Hope some one can tell me , how to create shorcuts like "Ok" and "StartMenu" on the keyboard.I think this feature would be very useful ,,, I am sure some body might be thinking about this already ?
And one more thing I heard is the American model touch pro At& T model has "ok" and startmenu keys on the keyboard, so if upgrade the uk model htc touch pro rom with AT & T rom , then will I be able to use the keyboard shortcuts ?
Expecting some answers from our pro colleagues....

For me can be better to unbind the home/back buttons from their default functionalities and handle them with AEBPlus. So I can have 4 functions on each button without their preinstalled functionalities.
I am not sure you can unbound home. Anybody tried?

I am sure,that someone will hack it. It is just a software. Earlier or later...
Yes Home will be really important so yuo have a better use of the phone with a single-hand. Hope someone will fix this topic!
any more suggestions here with regards to home and OK buttons on KEyboard ?
Thought I will bump this , so that some one can answer to this really!
I'm using PQzII to map Ctrl+Enter → OK. You can also setup keyboard shortcuts for Start, Today, Alt+Tab, etc.

This remap the keyboard AND buttons or only the keyboard?

Thank you for the tip , I will try this and then I will report back.
PQzII it's a wonderful app, works nicely!
Thanks!
nice app, i will try this out as well
I realize that configuring PQzII might not be very obvious, so here's some hints on how I've set it up for myself:
Run PQzII_Setup.exe to open the options.
Set CTRL as CTRL. I want to use my FN key as ALT, so enter the key code 0xEC for ALT since there is no actual choice for FN (more info below):
Now I can use FN+[key] mappings to simulate a regular PC.
FN+S → Start menu
FN+D → Desktop/Today screen
FN+Tab → Alt+Tab to switch programs
PQzII doesn't list all available keys (such as FN) but you can use PQz_CHECK to figure out the keycode and then manually enter it into PQzII if it isn't listed. For example, the SYM key is 0xE6. Just be sure to exit PQzII before you run PQz_CHECK:
http://www.nicque.com/PQz/PQz_CHECK.htm
Note: there's some inconsistency in how the TPro and PQzII handle sticky keys differently, so you might have to press some keys twice. Also, it goes without saying that you might get problems if you map shortcuts that already have functions, like FN+W → £.
Hope that helps
Edit--
After some testing, it might not be such a good idea to use the FN key for mapping because the Raphael uses it as a double-sticky key (ie: press FN once for one symbol, press FN twice for FN-lock). Since PQzII treats function keys as single-sticky keys, it gets pretty buggy.
Thank you & one more request
I have also tried this software and I must say , this is a must app for every Touch Pro Users , you can literally run anything with this software.
Only one more hurdle left for me with htc touch pro, when I am using any 3rd party RDP clients like citrix ica client, input is not taking from the keyboard, its only accepting it from virtual keyboard, there is one more thread already opened for this. Hope someone can crack this one fianl issue for touch pro.
Thanks to all the users who suggested this app.
Crosslinkage
Although the current result of my little research project is limited to being able to define a different keycode for the back button for _every window class_, perhaps with some more work it could lead to actually being able to remap the back button properly.
The home button can be (slightly) tweaked using post messages as well, but more work is required.
See my post here:

remap "back" button in IE?
It's not perfectly matching the topic but I don't want to start a new thread since it also somehow matches the topic:
Does anyone know if it's possible to map the "back" hardware-key in PocketIE as "history back"? In Pocket Outlook for example you can use the back-button to return from an email to the folder list but in PIE if you hit the back-button you just minimize PIE.
Problem with install.
When i install the app to my Touch pro, i can see the icon, but when i launch the app, all it does is show a small white square next to the "START" (top left)
I have uninstalled itn and re-installed but with no success.
Any ideas guys
Regards
Rich

tap on the small white square, select "Setup" in Kontext.
Or run the setup application located in Mein Gerät (my device) - Programme (programs) - PQzII - PQzII_Setup
How can i make PQzII launch 2nd today?
I can't seem to make it find the program.
EDIT:
Copy the .ink to somewhere within my documents (I used templates nice and out of the way)
Then add a shortcut to a program select view all files and find the shortcut.
Installed and couldn't get the app started. In fact it kinda hanged my Touch Pro.
So it would be better if it works with Fn , cuz we all use it more than any key ...
nobody suggest it to the programmer ?

how to dismiss m$'s honeycomb menu?

The stupidest menu I have ever seen.
How can I be back to normal or just remove the top "start" to make room
to display other information. thus I won't trigger this so-called
innovative menu.
There is the discussion on this:
http://www.istartedsomething.com/20090302/windows-mobile-65-honeycomb-menu-simple-ingenuity/
My eyes are more confortable to things that are aligned.
This honeycomb menu is introduced because of the small mobile touch screen. Just couldn't udnerstand that someone thought that is a solution which perfectly fit everyone.
In real world, a solution will introduce another issue looking for solution.
To me the dis-alignment is a bigger issue.
Please help.
Start menu
There's a few options when it comes to changing the wm6.5 start menu. Theres Quick menu 2.8 found here, and theres a cab to modify the honeycomb to a list here.
Thank you. The first one is a bit overloaded.
The list seems to be a good choice. Then I just miss the list of recent program.

Keyboard layout messed up after ROM update.

Hi folks!
After installed this rom:
6.5.5|WWE| ★ Energy Series 23547/21895) ★|Mar 18|★ Sense 2.1 / Titanium
I'm having problems with my keyboard layout.
When i press Fn, it goes to my calender.
When i press CAPS, the Fn light comes on.
The "=" is interpreted as a "-"
etc, etc.
Does anyone have a clue as to what i'm supposed to be doing to fix this?
Sorry if this has been asked before......
Start --> Tools --> Keyboard selector
Then set it to touch pro, after a reset it should work like a charm!
Please use the search before posting as has been answered numerous times and NRG has mentioned in first page of thread.
On that note thread closed.

[Q] Simple: Search Button for SearchableDictionary sample

Hey guys, got a question,
I am working on my first app, a dictionary app, using the sample code for SearchableDictionary v2. I wanted to create a "SEARCH" button on the main screen instead of using the MENU button all the time.
QUESTION: How do I point the new search "button" I created to activate the "search" activity? I have tried placing onClick="something" using all kinds of strings but I just get a Force Close.
thanks in advanced!

[Q] KitKat navigation bar is centered - can this be changed for tablets?

Hi guys,
I've searched the forum (and Google) for this but can't seem to find an answer to my question.
I've just loaded cm-11-20140625-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin on my HP Touchpad and everything's working A-OK (I did want to post this in the Touchpad/ROM''s forum but I'm a newbie and it looks like I'm not allowed )
The only thing that's driving me nuts is the navigation bar in KitKat, which is centered, and hard to get to when using a tablet (I can see how it makes no difference on a small phone). I'm referring to the very bottom of my first attachment.
The Back button and the other two are too far in the middle to be reachable when holding the tablet in landscape format (and not much better when in portrait) so I'm wondering whether there is a way to change this.
On previous Android versions, these three buttons were on the very left of the screen and so easily reachable without having to let go of the tablet to tap them (see second attachment):
I'm not sure if this is a KitKat thing, or if it's a ROM thing but I would appreciate any help you guys can give me.
Thanks!
--- Just realized this is the General forum and not the Q&A forum, but since I can't seem to delete or move this, can someone please move it to the Q&A forum for me? Thanks ---

Thanks, Primokorn - I checked that thread out but it seems my ROM (CM11) is not working with that UI. Which is a shame since it looks like the perfect solution to my woes!
Any other suggestions, anyone?

Ha ve a look at the index of xposed modules: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/index-xposed-modules-collection-post-t2327541
Maybe another module or a toolbox has this feature.
