CarService logging button pushes - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

I'm trying to remap the "AMS" button on the front of my Pumpkin unit. First I installed the latest version of Carservice (2.13), but pressing "Clear Logs" caused the app to crash. I then installed version 1.3 of Carservice. I can clear logs, but pressing any buttons does nothing (other than the buttons' intended function). Where am I supposed to find the button code?

in settings..buttons what is button 5 set to to open as an app?
from sleuth...
@shadowmite: PTTFix might not help this case since lvsw's ROM isn't from Cingular. Cingular removed button 5 from the standard mapping and attached it to PTT in their ROM. My fix traps the custom messages they generate then re-directs them by interpreting the button manager's registry entries.
@yo3gjc:Sounds like you're mapped to an invalid app or shortcut. You should be able to re-map button 5 using the button manager though.
PTT fix
Yapp, you are right, my device has a cingy origin, the PTT fix is not fixing my problem. Any idea is kindly appreciated
can you see button 5 in button manager? (start->settings->personal tab->Buttons). If so, please post a screencap so we can see what you're trying to tell us.
PTT fix
Yapp I can see it in Button Settings, Button 5 (press and hold), and I can select the application for it but is not functional and when I press it shows me that pop-up message
So it pops the error message no matter what app you select? Looks like a hard reset is in your near future....
PTT fix
Yes this is correct, no metter what apps I am selecting from Button selection the "poo-up" message is there, at least to disble the button, this one is the easiest to be pushed ), and sorry my newbee question, how to do a hard reset, my device is 3 days old, I am still learning it.
tks
Using hardware:
while holding down the left & right softkeys, press the reset button. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen
Using software:
in Settings->System Tab, choose "Clear Storage" and follow the instructions. Not all ROMs have this but yours should.
PTT fix
I've done a hard reset and still the PTT button is not working, another message there is no apps assign for the button but from the buttons selection regardless what apps I am selecting I am getting the same message. Tks for support

you have to assign an application to Button 5, not Button 5 (press and hold)
BINGO!!!!! yes, you are right, is working, so Button 5 press and hold stays unassigned and assign to Button 5, Tks , you make my day

[Q] Strange HW-Keyboard behavior

Hi,
im using the i927 with OsiMood-Rom.
Today its the second time, that my hardware keyboard behaves a bit strange:
- When I press "e" the Email App opens
- When I press "b" the browser opens
First time I got it "repaired" with a reboot, for now a re-open of the keyboard helped.
What is going on there?
That is not a weird behaviour but a feature. It's called "Quick Launch" and is started by pressing and holding the search button on hw keyboard plus any key in the hw keyboard. the "E" key is the default for email (press "Search" + "E" = Email), you can modify this in settings > applications > quick launch
Thanks, I mentioned that it's something like this but I didn't know what other button activates the shortcut or where to disable it

Like me, you might be using the "Search" button (either soft/hardware keys) to launch apps a lot.....most of the time, I end up pressing search plus the first character of an app i want to launch that results in pressing the two keys almost at the same time. That is how I accidentally discovered it....
I was like searching the "Email app" then I accidentally pressed the "E" key while the "Search" key is pressed then I went "How did this thing know that I want to launch Email?"
Press your search key again on your keyboard it is stuck. Happened to me once or twice. Quick launch is launching your short cuts that are programmed because it thinks you are hitting a 2 key combination. (Search and E)

remapping long press home button

Hello All,
I've conceded the fact that the phantom presses from capacitive buttons occur and cannot be stopped so I rooted my device (and commented the use of the search and menu button to be benign / vestigial). I am realizing home much I need to use the menu button. I attempted to use a program that put up a on screen menu but I just disliked it. I also to use launch key, but it only impact the long press of the search button which is already turned off.
Is there anyway to remap the longpress of home to act as a menu button?
Best,
Norman

hardware button long press remapping

messing around with the (how to enable soft touch keys) mod I found how to remap the hardware buttons to my liking... I was able to remap the home button to search and back, but I've found that whatever happens 1 line of code makes the button's 3 functions go with it... when I made it search pressing it brought up search, long pressing it brought up voice search and double pressing did nothing. I even tried making the menu button into home and all it's functions came with it, double pressing the menu button brought up s voice and long pressing it brought the task manager.
I guess my question is this: since the code tells a button what it's called where are the functions of these names stored? I can change the home key "key 172" to "SEARCH" but I haven't been able to find which file figures out what to do when a button labeled "SEARCH" is pressed, double pressed, or held...
I know s voice knows how to edit this file since it has control over double trapping home. and android system knows how to edit it too since every android "including our phone" asks to select a default action when long pressing a "SEARCH" button
my ultimate goal is reconfiguring a button to bring up Google now (which I love) without undoing the original button function (say making double tap home or long pressing menu bring up Google now). I'm also sure others would benefit from knowing how to do this kind of stuff namely people who want a camera button or a search button
any help would be appreciated

Hardware Keys Hacked

Hi,
Today while reboot some application asked for two hardware keys, I've pressed Volume-Up and Volume-Down keys and land up into following issue.
1. Pressing Volume-Up key start selecting elements on screen with blue focussing rectangle instead of volume increase functionality. This is similar as pressing TAB keys in desktop application to switch controls on screen. Volume-Down key acting as Enter (or Select Key) instead of volume decrease. Now I can operate all applications on phone using two keys but cant control volume
2. I've not installed any such application to map these keys. Now this app is not appearing again when I reboot my phone
How can I reset volume keys back to original state and remove or disable this hacking application or feature of android phone. I don't want to install a button remapping application - first need to eliminate the bug.
Device: One Plus 3
ROM: Resurrection 5.4.8
Same issue her
Super irritating. Can't find anything via Google search except this thread.
you have Talkback turned on - go into accessibility settings and disable it.
navigating in this mode is different (for users that need slower inteface), so :
tap = double tap
