hey! i've got this issue with the mapping of the italian keyboard. The FN key doesn't work, when i press it, it gives me the @ symbol. I wanted to fix the problem my self by editing the file in the rootfs.img, but to open it you need to mount it in Ubuntu. I installed Ubuntu, but i couldn't manage to mount the file, since it's the first time i use linux. I entered in boot mode by typing: sudo bash (it makes me a root user)
then i typed: mkdir mnt/New_folder, but it kept on saying "cannot create directory" . So now i can't create the new folder to mount the rootfs.img !!!! It's driving me crazy!! please help!! I would appreciate if someone could explain me how to do it or fix this thing for me!!! Thanks!!!!!!

Hi, there's a typo in the example "startup.txt", you have to put the _ like for other keyboard layouts, i.e. "rhod100_it"
Happy xdandroiding
Ciao, c'è un errore di battitura nei file di esempio, devi mettere il trattino basso _ come negli altri: "rhod100_it".

It just so happens that I was working on a new keymap for the Italian Rhod 100. I'll see if I can post a new version of my rootfs package with the updated Italian and French keymaps later today.

EDIT: the keyboard is still not fully functional. The FN works to put all the secondary letters and symbols, but it doesn't work to enable caps lock, to open the window with all the symbols, to enable xt9, to open a new sms and to go on the web.

*cough* There's fully functional and there's fully functional. Let me explain. You have a keyboard designed for Windows Mobile 6.1/6.5. Some keys in Windows Mobile don't exist in Android. Some of the keyboard combinations that are available on Windows Mobile just aren't available on Android. To get the same functionality in android you thus need to adapt to the android way of doing things. The symbol palette for android is also pretty minimal (just 12 characters) unfortunately. I've submitted a patch to system.ext2 to expand it to 18 characters, but most people won't see the expanded symbol palette until FRX04 is released, probably in late December. So no, you won't get everything that is currently printed on your keys even with my new Italian keymap. Your FN, Ctrl and SYM keys will work. Envelope will be mapped to SEARCH. Internet & SMS won't work because there is no way to assign that sort of functionality to a key without replacing the keycode and losing the rest of the key's functionality.
My suggestion would be to use short-cuts from within android for things like the internet and sms from the keyboard. Once your envelope key is matched to SEARCH in the new keymap you'll be able to do that since short-cuts in android combine the search key with another key. For example, by default, search+b opens up your browser, search+s opens up messaging, search+g opens up Gmail, search+e opens up email, search+m opens up the music player, etc... (These are adjustable from within Settings>Applications>Quick Launch. Personally, on my phone, I've moved messaging to Search+M and the music player to Search+P for easier use since it's awkward to press S while holding down the envelope key.) I'll look into XT9. I'm not sure about that one at the moment as it doesn't exist on my 210.

OK, i understand now. I really cared about the SYM function, the rest doesn't matter so much. Thank you for explaining me!!....i wanted to ask 2 more things.
1) after i changed from :"rhod100it" to "rhod100_it" and rebooted android through the XDANDROID icon, it changed back to "rhod100it", so i have to boot android with haret.exe
after i change it. Will this problem be solved with your rootfs.img? if not, can i solve it on my own?
2)the change i made in startup.txt, made the power button not functional in android. With the power button and the home button(hang call) i used to turn off/on the screen (i changed the function of the home button in the OPTIONS and gave it the function to go back on the home page). Now i can't turn off the screen(i can only turn it on when the screen turns off by it self) unless i put the home button's function back to default. Again, will this problem be solved with your rootfs.img? if not, can i solve it on my own?

The init script in rootfs specifically looks for physkeyboard=rhod100_it in your startup.txt. If it sees that then the Italian keyboard map & layout files will be used. If your startup.txt is being overwritten then I assume you're using some sort of startup utility. That isn't part of the rootfs. Sovereign wrote the startup utility which Reefer packages into his builds. If you're using one of Reefer's builds then you you should talk to Reefer or Sovereign about fixing that so that it works properly in the future for Italian 100's.

I wasn't aware that there's an option in startup.txt that makes the power button non-functional. How did you do that? My rootfs.img doesn't touch the power button. It operates as it normally does. It simply adds an option to startup.txt to remap the endcall button to the keycode HOME so that it not only works as home on a short press, but the ability to long press it and get the recent apps list is also preserved. (The software option in spare parts that currently exists doesn't remap the scan code, and thus the ability to pull up the recent apps list is lost.)

That's strange. Your keyboard should have no effect on the power button. In fact, you can't change the power button's functionality from the rootfs where the keyboard is handled, only the kernel. What version of the kernel are you currently running? And please post your startup.txt.

Hi both.
I guess, because all of this happened to me too the very first time I approched to Xdandroid, that if no correct value is found in startup, the default keymap is loaded.
Can't be sure but I think default is Tilt2.
Maybe Tilt2 has power/endcall ... tilted ...
Therefore some language could be more advanced than others in regard of testing branches/key assignments' scripts.
In this regard I am using your personalized rootfs, with endcall/power on power button and home/recent tasks on red button.
For sym I use touch keyboard, which contains all accents. Quite tricky closing and opening, but not as slow as only touch
Cheers

I read in another thread that you might need some italian to complete/check the IT keymap.

I copied your startup above onto my phone and I'm having no trouble using the power button to sleep/wake my phone. Now granted, the first time I tried it my phone was incredibly sluggish, and several of my keys seemed to produce 2 or 3 copies of the same letter every time they were pressed. Nevertheless initial sluggishness when you replace an XDAndroid component is a common issue unfortunately. A reboot fixed that and now all seems well with your startup.txt. So it doesn't look like your startup.txt is the source of your problem with the power button. Are you absolutely certain you updated to the 11/24 kernel and not an older one? Your problem sounds very much like a kernel issue.

It would still work as power outside of a phone call. Inside of a phone call you'd just have to press it twice, once to end the call, and then a second time to put the phone asleep.

Well there are two defaults. First there's the keyboard entry in the default startup.txt and second there is the default keyboard if there is no keyboard entry in startup.txt. The first is either a tilt2 or a rhod210 depending on where you pull your startup.txt from. The second is the raphael (touch pro 1), that's what the init script assigns if you don't tell it anything at all about your keyboard.

Currently the key maps/layouts are a hodgepodge. People created them for their own devices, sometimes hex-editing a different model's key map binary instead of creating a source file and then compiling it. So over half the existing keymaps in the rootfs repository lack source files. And it's pretty clear that a lot of the entries were just stabs in the dark by people who didn't understand what they were doing. I'm trying to bring some order to the mess. This project would be taking me far less time if I only did my 210 and stopped there, but I've expanded the project to include all rhod & raph models that we currently have keymaps/layouts for. Currently that's 9 for the rhod & 5 for the raph. I've even created a keymap/layout set for rhodiums with broken keyboards. So make that 10 for the rhod.

You'll have a working SYM key as soon as I get around to updating my rootfs. The Italian and French keymaps are the only two that weren't updated in the Nov. 22nd rootfs I posted.

Certainly. Can you post a pic of your Italian keyboard? I've already adjusted the key layout and decompiled the key map binary. I'm trying to place the same keys in the Italian map that I've added to the other keyboards. I'd like to see what's taken and what's available. We can then discuss alternate places to put those keys if the place I've used on the other keyboards is taken. I already know that fn-a which I've used for { on other keyboards is taken. On the German key map I've moved it to fn-d, but I'm not sure if that's available on your keyboard or not. According to the drawing in the manual it's available, but I suspect the drawing may be wrong since there was a ? there in the binary and I don't see the ? character printed on any of the keys in the drawing.
Preferably I'd like to pick keys that are both intuitive and available on all nine rhodium keyboards that we currently have defined within XDAndroid, and if not all, then at least the five 100's that are currently available in XDAndroid.

Let's keep adherent to the standard.
Just to talk: I don't even know if it's possible to make them work in Android, but the keyb combos I miss most are CTRL+arrows, CTRL+SHIFT+arrows, CTRL+X, CTRL+C, CTRL+V.

Whether or not these combinations will work is dependent on the application. Android doesn't have a ctrl keycode, but many applications treat the keycode DPAD_CENTER as if it were the ctrl key. So mapping DPAD_CENTER to the scan code for the physical ctrl key gives us a functional ctrl key in many applications including terminal emulator. Four of the five Euro 100's had their ctrl keys mapped to MENU instead in their layout files however. I had to replace MENU with DPAD_CENTER to make the ctrl key work. Everyone I've talked prefers a working ctrl key, but there's probably someone out there who will scream when this change gets committed and subsequently makes it into the auto-build.

LOL, don't tell me you grandma never told you this secret!!!!
Rice is very, very hygroscopic. Even more than common salt (sodium chloride).
In fact here is common to see rice mixed with salt, as a speedy remedy to keep salt dry.
Only silica sachets are better than rice, but they are very expensive or too small to fit the role here.
I bet everyone will agree that diving an electronic device into salt would not end well.
On the other side, diving an electronic device into rice grains is safe (even if some grain get into it, it's easy to shake them away when all is dried up), and clean (rice doesn't produce as much powder/dust as, i.e., wheat, that could cloak up wet stuff).

My E71 falled into a river, while staying, supposedly safe, into my pocket ... ^_^
A friend pushed me in. On his defence, he didn't know I had it. Happens.

Yup, that's sure. Never change anything unexpectedly ... or the barbarians will roll over you in seconds.
But no one forbids people to shape their keyboard layout as they like best, right?
So maybe I can help the project a little bit, while learning how to fish so to avoid just asking for fishes, if you know what I mean
Being able to build things on my own gives me a lot more satisfaction than taking/buying them done.

Did you try to enter text in various applications which are not default Microsoft? I found out that on the Excalibur/Dash and might be also the same problem on all other full keyboard (landscape) Smartphones, that at those applications the....
WER
SDF
XCV
...keys are being recognized as the nummeric ones like:
123
456
789
This seems to be a bug (hopefully not a feature) at the OS.
I do see this with e.g. Smartphonenotes (quite important to me), VNC Viewer (for Remote Desktop Control) and at some Java Apps like GoogleMaps, the same is with applications based on .NET.
This is a reason why I again take my HTC p4350 (Herald) with me on the road tomorrow, because I need to control my desktop remotely and start my VPN connection to the company, in order to run the emoze client and to receive emails
Guys, believe me, for hardcore users, it is very annoying.
Did anybody hear a solution for this?
I've just tried Smartphone Notes on my Dash & it's working just fine. The default is alpha and pressing function twice shifts them the keyboard into to numeric mode.
I also noticced that. TomTom for example does not recognize these keys as letters. I have to use T9 on these 9 letters.

Fire00, it saves a note called Laguna just fine. 'A' key working fine as well. I dont get what u mean by search completely? I also tried Convert It! and it entered numeric where it was supposed to and in Newscopier it entered alphabets in the fields where it was supposed to. BTW in my earlier post above, i stated that i owned the Dash, where as I actually own the HTC s620, sorry.
it depends on the application, for example tomtom. it would work properly if they updated the app.

I also tried Convert It! and it entered numeric where it was supposed to and in Newscopier it entered alphabets in the fields where it was supposed to. BTW in my earlier post above, i stated that i owned the Dash, where as I actually own the HTC s620, sorry.

What's wrong then with my already second s620 unit?
I wished it would work like you're saying.
OK let's try another one. A note in Smartphonenotes which starts with an "A".
When I press "A" on the alpha-keyboard, it does not react. The key "A" does simply not exist. But when I press the "E (2)" key, it is being recognized as an "A" according to the nummeric (T9) scheme.
The same is in TomTom, the same is in Java based apps like Googlemaps, in .NET based apps like Remote Desktop Control. The issue here is that all these applications do recognize all the keys which do have 2 functions (alpha and nummeric = wer, sdf, xcv) are treated like nummeric ones. And last but not least, the A key on the left (the first one original alpha key) does not work at all in that applications.

Might there be an issue with my ROM? I can say that I'm a quite experienced WM user and wouldn't bother you with this if it was not proved. OK simply forget it, I'm waiting now for the unbranded Treo 750.

No bother at all, im glad to be of any assistance. The snag is that im coming from the UIQ platform so don't have much experience on Smartphone.
Text entry issue...cont'
I have a Blackjack and Smartphonenotes installed. Also having the same problem as Fire - e.g. when I press "B", the program lists all my notes beginning with "T". Anybody with a solution? Thanks.
I have tried all three cabs below with zero success! Yes, these cabs remap if that the letters on the hardware keyboard but do nothing for the top row and symbols in blue. I can live without remapping the OK key if thats such a feat but need all other keys at least to be mapped the way they are suppose to be, they way they look on the hardware keyboard. Im sure many other users here will agree with me on this and hopefully others will pitch in as well.
Just looking for a simple cab to install so when i flash a custom rom that i can have FULL use of my hardware keyboard on my att tilt2, no more and no less. I have no knowledge in this stuff or id do it myself rather then provide stickies of a cab that does only half the job!
Since half the keyboard is already remapped, i will start the donation/bounty at $10USD and will add more if this can be done quick. If there's multiple people in on creating this for the community then i will be sure everyone truly involved gets a fair share as well.
Im no techy, just an end user but don't see this task to be complete rocket science.
What the hell !!! The symbols in blue???? Those are controled with the funtion key (FN) on the keyboard.

Yes of course they are. Im saying not only to remap the keys in white but also the ones controlled by the FN key, the symbols in blue. I dont believe my description is hard to understand. Simply look at an att tilt2 hardware keyboard, now have it work as it should, thats it! Not asking for anything else, just for all the keys on the hardware keyboard to work as they do when you first turn it on using the stock rom. Need a cab so it will work on custom roms since were not here to run stock roms.
Dont really know how else i can spell it out? Maybe take a picture of the att tilt2 hardware keyboard and post it?
I use the first one you list and all of my Keys work fine on my AT&T Tilt 2.

Are you saying the top row works fine and every blue symbol key in conjuction with the FN key works fine as well? What rom are you running? Makes no sense to me. Making me think i have one bunk device since ive tested this with a fresh flash without installing anything else.

I put that second script, install the cab (MortScript) then run the script file. soft reset and your good.
Some applications are weird and they swap the keys back to the original TP2 settings, but its very rare. It seems to work fine for me other than that. OH and when trying to use the hardware keys when dialing for a phone call its not right.. But I don't really use that anyways.

What rom are u using including build? I used the mort pacakge just as u described after a fresh flash of nrgs latest rom of build 23518 on wm6.5.3 standard sense 2.1 and nothing bro! Only keys that work right for me are the letter keys, comma, period, and question mark. Well FN, shift are also mapped correctly as well. Every key on the top row is numbers 1-0 and the blue symbol keys are all over the place! This is killing me!
No, you dont need to explain. I understood your post and as you can see, i am on a custom rom with the tilt 2 and all my buttons work perfect, except for the OK key. I also use the first cab in your OP. As for dialing, as pointed out by a respose here, have no clue if mine works that way. I use the onscreen dialer.
Something must be wrong with your phone!!!!
Im using NRGZ's Leo Rom the 21885 version from 12/31.... It could be an issue with the 23518 builds. The OK button has never worked but dont really need it. I would try it on a 21885 build and if it doesnt work it sounds like device specific. You also could flash a Stock Rom back on then back to a Custom one sometimes some of the previous system files arent removed correctly I have heard.
I have an att tilt 2 as well, and after flashing any rom other then att my keyboard is all wrong also, mainly the top row, and the Fn keys. Its pretty funny though without a remap, my shift key works as the FN key, and my OK key works as a shift key, which I find funny. But attached is the cab I always have used every time, and every key with the exception of the OK key works, I have tested this 1,000,000 times. If this cab doesnt work (Which I think could be the third cab in your list but not sure), then you have a bad keyboard.
I have used this cab with, the stock EU rom, nrgz roms, valkyrie's roms, Arks roms.
I have remapped my keyboard layout easily by editing the keyboard txt-file....was no big problem....every row is listed in his file, and you can put in whatever letter/symbol you want....
little hijack
Sorry for hijacking the thread a little. I've got a dilemma here, I'm about to change my physical keyboard (in fact the whole casing) for the one that has tilt2 layout (or maybe just the casing leaving the old keyboard untouched). How do you Tilt2 guys manage without the "Ctrl" key?!!!

Most people will think you are crazy, most tilt2 people want the standard tp2 keyboard. but to your question: since the ok button doesnt work, I mapped "OK" using keyboard config to be a CTRL button

Is it the ATT keypad.dll? and you just open it with a text editor like notepad or something? I have been searching and it seems like that is what I should be looking for but I just want to make sure. Thanks in advance.
Sorry Deeznuts, but either you aren't explaining it right (which I think you are) or (more likely) there is something wrong. I have a Tilt 2\ATT and the keyboard fix cabs do work in every ROM I have installed. (With the exeption of only about three blue keys like the shortcut to mail or the internet.) There is either something wrong with your device or the ROM that you are using. I suggest you start over with a different ROM to test your keyboard, maybe use a stock ROM to be sure. There is also a prog called Rhodium Keyboard Control (RhodiumKbdControl_GSM.cab) that might be of use. Good luck.
I've been using the Tilt2HWKeyboard.cab and all the symbols and numbers work fine.
OK button does not work, sometimes it launches opera, other times i get error message with something about start.exe
FN+Left arrow (supposed to be calendar) Launches opera
FN+Down arrow (supposed to launch internet browser) does nothing
FN+Right arrow (supposed to turn on wifi) opens up comm manager.
I don't mind that those are off, but would prefer the OK button to work and also PTT button does not work at all.
I'm down to put in $10 as well to get a cab that has the full use of the HW keyboard + PTT button

I was looking at that text files, and it appears to be mapped correctly, but the top row is still messed up for me and the blue function keys are not correct either.
Can you post how you modified the text file please?
Mine works fine. I used instructions from a certain thread. I first installed the Tilt2HWKeyboard cab. I then installed a cab called SdkCerts. Then I installed a cab called RhodiumKbdControl_GSM.
$20 for 1 single step install at&t tilt2 keyboard ALL BUTTONS MUST WORK INCLUDING PTT AND OK BUTTON I DONT CARE IF IS A MORT SCRIPT A CAB OR XML
Hes NOT CRAZY lol
I have the same exact issue. ive tried different cabs to no change except . ? , still sont know where the hell at symbol is... I GOT 10 usd for a working cab or a soloution where every key works as should...besides a stock re flash!
What apps are you running bro? Im running the apr8 nrg rom too. idk! dont make sense to me. but even when i ran stock rom keys would switch to this configuratio noccasionally in txt msging!
i would close all the way out of txt and open it back up and keys back to normal. Im seriously about burned out on hunting fixes for these damned phones, stock and otherwise. Ive owned every HTC w a slide keyboard that att offered since 8125 (wizard)
and played hunt and fix on every single one. seriously, what other product would u pay 400 plus dollars for and then spennd countless hours searching for fixes just to make it work properly
Goodnight people ...
I have a question for you:
Because I hate the touchscreen keyboard, I wanted to know if there was a way to prevent it being opened automatically!
Let me explain .. when I write a new text message, a new mail, when I use opera but when I select any text box, it automatically opens the touchscreen keyboard!
can prevent this thing from happening?
I only use the HW keyboard ... and would prevent the automatic opening of the touchscreen keyboard!
I dug into the registry, more precisely here:
[HKLM \ Software \ Tegic \ eT9]
and all subfolders below ... I could not find anything about it!
How can I do?
Thanx!!!
Try this:
Code:
[I]HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\TurnOffAutoDeploy[/I] = 1
[I]HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\AllowChange[/I] = 0
[I]HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Disable Auto SIP[/I] =1 (Note the space in "Internet Explorer"; there's a different directory without the space)
I found these online, so I don't know if they'll work.
Actually, I think only the second tweak ('AllowChange') is necessary. I remember trying it before. You have to know, however, that it will (should) completely disable the virtual keyboard; you can only launch the SIP by changing the value back to '1'.
yeah i used to turn it off with a tweak program. turning off auto works most places but not in opera. however later builds of opera wont show the onscreen keyboard if the physical is kicked out.
thanks for explanation ... really helpful, but my intention was not to completely disable the keypad, but only prevent it opened automatically!
I don't like the on-screen keyboard popping up all the time either. So I took an interest in this thread. I found that of the suggested registry changes mentioned above, the oly one I needed to impliment was this one:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\TurnOffAutoDeploy = 1
This seems to keep the on-screen keyboard from popping up on its own, but still allows me to access the keyboard when I need it.
Hopes this is helpful...

I tried one of the tweaks I listed a few months ago. I think the "AllowChange" tweak disables the launch (auto and manual) of the virtual keyboard.
I remember helping someone on an EnergyROM thread about this same topic. He wanted to completely disable the virtual keyboard, so he was happy with the tweak.

You could just add a DWORD for the "TurnOffAutoDeploy" key. That should suffice.
You're welcome for the tweak, but I understand the problem of having to remod the registry and soft reset when you need it. Maybe you could push for an app that can "switch" the registry key for you without a soft reset?

You're right... I never thought to create the DWORD!
I try now... and then I post the result!
PS: I can create an app that modifies the registry to enable and disable the touchpad, but I think it is impossible to avoid the SR, because without it, the touchpad still does not work even after I edit the registry, because this type of change requires necessarily an SR to become effective.
I've tried to add manually the DWORD "TurnOffAutoDeploy=1", but the problem isn't solved!!!
PS: I can create 2 different CAB... 1 for "Powering ON" and 1 for "Powering Off" the Touchpad... because i'm not a programmer, and i haven't the necessary competence to create an application in c++!
The only one problem, is that i don't know how to avoid the SR necessary to make active the change!
If I find a way to solve the SR problem, i have solved my touchpad problem!

You can try Mobilnaut SYM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459253).
When Mobilnaut SYM is activated, the SIP does not pop up when the keyboard is open.
for my it work with the "Deploy" reg kack. the "allow" one killed it all toghether. I't wouldn't apear, even if i click it.
I have a diferente problem now. I'm Portuguese, I need special char "ç" a lot. my harware keyboard doesn't have that. so I have to pop up the SIP every time just for that one.
Can someaone develop a small app i can link to a hardware button, that all it does is type "ç"?
Thank you!

There is a registry edit that worked just fine on my T-Mobile HTC HD2, so you might want to check it out.
I know it has got to be something simple, but I want an SSH server on the Andriod OS, but to do so I need access to keys chars such as / and " ..., but I can not get the FN key which should be in the "Shift Ctrl" position to work. Best solution would be to have the keyboard mapping exactly as it appears on the Tilt2, second best would be to have it work with a standard mapping and not AT&T's. yet so far I can figure out neither.

Im looking at my keyboard right now, and neither the / nor the " require the FN key to use them.... they are their own button. On top of that, my FN key works perfect, otherwise I wouldnt be able to use the numberpad. So what exactly are you talking about? lol
The "Tilt2" is only the name for the AT&T branded TP2. If you have a different handset other than that, you need to match that to the device you have using the startup utility (MJGDroidUtil.exe).
I'm gonna guess he is just running the harret.exe and not the util that lets you set your config. you need to run the the other exe mjutil something or other and it will let you pick your keyboard then it should all work fine

It is the latest updated version of Dosbox from adosbox.googlecode.com, with keys mapped to match the G2 keyboard. It's my first actual packaged Android app, so hopefully I didn't screw anything up.
Mouse support is disabled, only the left ALT key works to access extended characters, and the ALT key seems to become stuck if you hold it down for too long, but you can un-stick it by pressing it once and releasing.
The track pad is a little too sensitive for my liking, but a few CGA games I tried seem to work well (Telengard, Ultima IV, Legacy of the Ancients.)
You'll need to put DOSBOX.CONF from adosbox.googlecode.com in the root folder of your sdcard.
I don't make any promises as to whether this works or how well it works!
*edit*
Just to clarify, this is not MY port, all I did was take someone else's hard work and fix keymappings for the G2.
Also, no matter what you set the CPU cycles to, it seems to run as fast as it possibly can. It consumes 100% CPU usage and does not hibernate in the background when you switch apps, so be careful!
*/edit*
sweet!
DOSbox!
thx
Has this worked for anyone?
This worked for me, which is great. Made it easier to play with.
It is a tad slow, and there is no sound, but hey, it's dosbox on a friggin cell phone!
The real problem with this port is the lack of a good way to do savestates in DosBox. Since the video hardware can be weird and restoring its state can be tricky there is no official support for saves states in DosBox at all, although there have been some patches.
Anyway, I'm getting off topic here. Thanks for the work fixing the keyboard.
How did you do this? I have a motorola Flipside and I would like to fix the adosbox key mappings for it. Is there anything I can do with settings like the Mapper.txt file, or does it require modifying the code? (I know its not the best phone but my family is on att and they are paying the bill)
I was able to work around not having colon by using this keymap file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837002 and then changing SEARCH to SEMICOLON
Other then this i didn't see any other characters that weren't there (even though some were presented incorrectly)
I am new to adosbox, does this mean I could finally run windows 3.1net on my G2? Lookout ms paint, here I come!
Wait, no mouse? Bummer.

How did you modified the bindings? I've changed left and right arrow keys mappings to shift and dot in mapper-0.74.map but it has disabled trackpad x axis
And do you know which codes have these two shortcut keys (that ones with three dots and numbers)?

Greetings.
----------edit---------
I've managed to change the:
Left FN - it's recognised as Left alt key
Left Shift
Tab
...as 3 of 4 arrow keys.
This disables trackpad scrolling however.
But it let's for playing dos games like Hocus Pocus and so on where you need arrow keys.
Do you (or anyone) know what are the numbers of following keys?:
Keyboard menu key
Shortcut key 1
Shortcut key 2
Search key
Sym key
We've got much room to bind.
Or maybe anyone knows where or how to check those numbers?
I know you are not the original author of the android port of DOSBox but I just cannot get any replies from the person listed as the author and I need to find out how to change things like the display resolution, etc.and thought you might know.
