Dudes,
First of all, Thx for reading it next, i have a damaged X1 , working buttons: power up, camera focus, camera, volume up and volume down.
Q:
Can anyone manage somehow to remap the keys, like :
Volume up = the key , which turns to work, when you slide out and slide in your phone.
Volume down = the back key , for android?
Need those two to get along with Android program, plz help ?

Hello,
A while back I remaped the power button (the one u have to hold down) to be used with as a software button(I used kaiser tweak tool). Now I want to be able to shut down but there is no way to do it.
Can someone help.
My kaisers power button has split in half on me, Im wondering if i can change the PTT button to be the power button thru maybe a registry change or possibly another alternative. As u kno the power button blacks the screen and locks it so u cant push buttons, and i really dont want to dial in my pocket. Can someone please help me???? I dont want to throw away a prefectly good phone bcuz of a poorly made button. Thank you guys
well i took my phone apart and swapped the camera buton for the power button, but who knows how long this one will last. Does anyone know of any reg hacks, or software that will lock the phone on a button press maybe PTT button?
Very good that you have the technical ability to do what you did
In order to not use the power button so much I advise you to install a lock utility like S2U2 for example (I suggest it because I use it and it has a very nice interface). There are also smaller and lighter apps around. Just have a look.
In addition to that you have to change the key lock settings of the phone to "lock keys if phone is locked". This will enable you to wake the phone up with any key on the phone. In order to not activate any functions of the phone with this setting you have to set the timeout of S2U2 on wakeup to 0. This way S2U2 kicks in before any of the key functions come in.
By doing these things I am able to have a phone that does not dial in my pocket and I do not use the power button to wake it up. I use the wheel.
I hope this helps.
I'm trying to remap my End Call button so I can use it to "Go Home", and End Calls. I don't want that button to put my phone to sleep, just the side power button. I want to also free up my IE button for use with anything else I might want it bound too.
In my ventures to do so, I've noticed that both the End Call button and Power button are mapped to the same keymap. I had thought I had changed the Power button but when I tried to end a call, the red button just puts the phone to sleep, which is exactly what I wanted my side power button to do while I'm on a call.
Is this a bug, or a "feature" in the kernel?
im pretty sure its part of the kernel, it has been there since the donut days (the old keymap was crazy volume up was the menu button, volume down was back)
it is partly due to the fact that the vogue has very few buttons, the kaiser was a device that just worked with our kernels at first.
i think even changing the buttons in atools will not change the kernel key stacks like your asking for
although l1q1d being the creator of Atools would know a lot better than I would
I've been looking at the querty.kl file, trying to understand the keymaps, and what they're associated too... Anyway of running a program that captures key presses and prints out the associated keymap for that key press?
Hey! Post from the grave!
Did you have any luck ??
I was also hoping someone knew how to go about this.
I know there are ways to remap keys, but I'm stuck in a browser, and all I can do it put my kaiser to sleep.
I even tried atools keyboard remapper to no avail (awesome tool btw).
It's no fun when you can't exit applications d:
I don't mean to double post, was just hoping someone could answer this.
Krazy-Killa did you have any luck?
so my power button is gone on my htc touch with android. i need to poke the small button inside with a penpoint or small object.
is there a way to re-map the button or another way to turn the phone on from sleep?
My power button is working but I have same concern. Developers, why don't use D-pad key for home/back etc functions? power/camera buttons are very critical because without them you may even have difficulty to enter bootload mode.
Atools will let you remap the keys
Thanks!. I have created an update that set Vogue D-pad as:
Left: Back
Center: Home
Right: Menu
Working perfect on my SuperFroyo.

I've used Atools to remap wake up to other keys but, it only works if i press those keys after receiving a notification.
have you been successful in waking up the phone from sleep without having to press the power button? are there additional settings i need to change?
I also have the same problem - my power button stopped working this afternoon for some reason and I cant wake up my phone except by calling it from another line or restarting it - any idea how i can change the wake up key? from what i gather, the atools fix isn't working?
Exact. Same. Problem. Using Incubus RLS16 (no audio input either... grrr...)
I remapped the power button and it will turn on but only under these conditions:
Phone just went into sleep, after a few minutes no response.
If it's plugged in.
Which makes me wonder... are there two different sleep modes? ie: light sleep which lasts for a few minutes when unplugged, and a deep sleep which kicks in after that, or never, when plugged in.
I only need to wait a few more weeks for my upgrade, but I want to be productive now!
Anyone have a solution to the phone not waking up problem - Ive realized its not my power button..
Anyone noticed if you mash keys you get the phone to do things? For example pressing on the keyboard R, T, and J at the same time acts as the standby button. I've noticed that there is also another button combo to increase/decrease volume and emulate the Menu key.
First off, why?
Second off, what are these other key combos?
