Android :: Add Another Virtual Keyboard Do Simulate Control Keys?
Jan 13, 2010
I am working with an hardware that have just five buttons. But I have just one button available to the following functions: home, back, search, soft-back(menu). The hardware is for automotive use, so that is because he doesn't have the common buttons of a cell phone. So I am thinking about create a second virtual keyboard that is called by this available button, to show these buttons that are missing on hardware. I want to know if it is possible to do. If it is, what type of code should I follow to create this extra virtual keyboard? I think a good start is to look at the code of the current virtual keyboard.

I was smsing this morning on my HTC Hero using the normal virtual keyboard that came with the phone. But all of a sudden, the keyboard changed into something different.
The keys became smaller, the number keys are with the alphabet keys(on top), and there is an extra key to toggle to tamil(?) characters. And when I type, there is no more 'feedback' from the screen. The auto correct feature is gone too. how to get my old virtual keyboard back?

In many games there are actions that you need to hold Y and then press B , but for snesoid, since I am using my same thumb on the virtual keys in an attempt to press them both at the same time, it doesn't work. It will release y and then press B or just release y. This becomes apparent in games like Super Mario World when you run, then jump, you lose the momentum and just do a regular jump. On the droid x, the only solution I have found is to set B also to a hardware key, like one of the volume buttons, then you can see how its supposed to work when you hold Y then hit B. This affects many other games like DKC3 (jumping while holding barrel). Any help or ideas?

I'm getting the G1 next weekend and am wondering how long until a virtual keyboard will be available. I really like the idea of having a full slide-out keyboard but I would also like a virtual one so if I'm not wanting to say much I can just use the virtual keyboard or if I'm in an area where it needs to be quiet I don't need to have the sound of the keyboard sliding open.

It is difficult to test a game with the mouse pointer on android buttons. I would like to control those buttons with the hardware keyboard. Actually I don't want to control the buttons itself but I want to control the behavior the buttons would also do. For example I have 4 buttons in the android application with "arrow up, down, left, right". I'd like to use the arrow buttons of my hardware keyboard to control the same. How can I do that? Actually the question is, where can I set the Listener? I tried something in my activity.

I'm trying to develop a very specific app for my Dell Streak. I want the entire app to run landscape. The Streak has a tilt function that switches the whole OS to a landscape 800x480.
So I want to make an ADT to test in that uses an 800x480 display, but whenever I set the size I get no buttons. The Streak has a Home, Menu and Back button aswell as volume/mute and power, and I need to use some of them for my application.
I'm not worried about the tilting messing up my application. Not yet, anyway. Just need the test environment the right size and with buttons.

Is there some sort of tweak to extend the amount of time the control keys at the bottom of my Captivate stay backlit? I hate guessing in low or no light conditions.

Basically I want to capture Alt-key combination to provide some customized alternative text input. For example Alt-f would put FOO into the text field. However there doesn't seem to be ALT key on the virtual keyboard in ether portrait or landscape. Is it possible to fake Alt key on the virtual keyboard somehow?

I have developed an app that uses setTextFilterEnabled(true). It works perfectly on my G1. My partner has a new MyTouch phone that does not have a real keyboard. He cannot use this functionality at all. He tried holding down the menu key(and so have I) but the keyboard does not appear. Without a keyboard, this app is dead on arrival.
I am trying the following code to no avail.

From the screenshots it seems like it'll do pretty well. Can't wait to find out.

I cannot control my volumes with volume keys on my Sony Xperia Z tablet. It changes the notification volume instead of media volume which is quite fustrating when trying to watch movies or listening to songs. I have to go to setting and change media volume seperatly. This issue started just a few days ago.

I have a Motorola Xoom and a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard. I have my tablet connected to the TV via HDMI. When I open the Netflix app with the keyboard I cannot use the arrow keys to navigate the app. I tired the Tablet Remote app, but it has the same results. I thought of maybe trying TeamViewer on phone and tablet, but thought there might be a better solution.
Is there a way to remotely use the Netflix app on my tablet so I can use it on my TV?

Is there a way to configure the virtual keyboard to "hide" once the return key is pressed? I have numerous EditText fields in my application and I want the user to be able to enter a single line value, press return, and the keyboard goes away.Is there a way to override the virtual keyboard return key?

If I´m using the T-Mobile G1, then the QWERTZ- keyboard is very good. But if I only want to use one hand, then I have to use the keyboard. Is it possible to add a virtual keyboard to the T-Mobile G1? I've heard, the new HTC Magic (with Android) has got one!

Using the 1.5 SDK. I have an application with a TabActivity and when I change from one tab with edit fields to another that does not need any user input I would like the virtual keyboard to be hidden. I've tried setting android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" on the manifest for the activity that doesn't need user input but it didn't work (maybe because the activity is triggered by a TabActivity).
I've found the method hideSoftInputMethod(IBinder, int) in the InputMethodManager class but I don't know how to get the IBinder object that this method needs.
How do I get that IBinder object? Are there other ways to hide the soft keyboard?
It would be even better if I could make the soft keyboard automatically hide when an EditText loses focus.

I was fillding with EditText and handling of events, and I was wondering on a strange thing:
If you press some of the keys (for example forward slash '/') on the emulated physical keyboard, the keyevents are called as usual (onKeydown, the KeyListeners etc). If I click on the corresponding virtual key on the onscreen virtual keyboard, all these callbacks do not get called at all! This is strange, given that If I press other keys like alhpanumerical, the events are called.

I need help with showing the integrated virtual keyboard on-screen. I extended a View class and I implemented these two methods (most of it is just stub code; for now I only want to display the keyboard):
CODE:.............
Where editor is an instance of my View. I noticed in the debugger that my onCreateInputConnection() is executed but after that the keyboard is not displayed on the screen. Using the TextView widtget and it's subclasses is not an option.
