I am wanting to create CWM recovery for a device that doesn't currently have it, the EK-GC100 to exact, trouble is I can get it to boot, but because the device doesn't have volume buttons, only "Zoom in/out" the recovery cannot be navigated, what to do, to remap the keys in the recovery to buttons the device actually has?

I've a HTC Sensation and a few days ago i did a long press on the search button (bottom right). A pop up asked me what application to launch, i choose google voice and tick the case by default. I would like to come back on this choice...
Is there a way to modify which application or function is launched by default with a hardware button?
How I may check the mount point mappings for my phone?
All i can understand is /system is /dev/block/mmcblk0p3" but how do check for the rest?
I already tried the following commands in terminal emulator but they didn't work:
mount
/proc/partitions
I have a love-hate relationship with my G1, with the inability to remap keys at the top of the list. I've looked high and low for information, going so far as to try to decipher pages like this:http://www.kandroid.org /android_pdk/keymaps_keyboard_input.html and even reading the android platform code on github. I don't see things like page_up and page_down defined in the android keymappings. And I suspect that the original scancodes are being assigned to touch gestures.Since the number keys don't have a third component could an enterprising developer map to the unused caps for missing keys? Not that it would be all that useful at this point but it would give someone a hook to build on. Or if that isn't possible, how about a virtual floating task bar kind of thing (maybe mostly transparent overlay?) that maps gestures like the swipe up/swipe down and more traditional arrows and enter type keys for the trackball? This isn't entirely a nit-picky kind of request. I have a medical condition that in the winter makes my fingertips extremely painful and the trackball hurts. I'm guessing that there weren't many arthritis sufferers on the Android development team, either. You would think that the touch screen should make things easier, not harder. Even my old, old Omnigo and HP100LX had utilities to remap keys, so it seems odd that there isn't some kind of app that could be developed. I think if I had enough time (which I don't) I might be able to eventually puzzle out a crude version of the task bar thing but I'd much rather pay a couple of dollars in the market.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I map the device Y axis to the screen Y axis?I can't figure this out.I'm the developer of Tricorder, and I'm trying to make it so that the accelerometer and magnetometer indicators I draw always point in the right direction.On the G1 phone with the slider closed, all is well.But when I open the slider, I end up showing that gravity is pulling me to the left (if the phone is held with the display vertical).So, I know that the device, and hence sensor, Y axis is always in the direction of the earpiece; and the screen Y axis changes when I open the slider.And I know that I can use remapCoordinateSystem() to change the device axes to match the screen axes.But where do I find out what the device's orientation is?In other words, how do I compute the correct values for the X and Y parameters to remapCoordinateSystem()?
Configuration.orientation seems quite useless.Suppose it is set to LANDSCAPE.What does this mean?Does it mean a device which is "naturally" portrait (i.e. the sensor Y axis points to the narrow end), and which has been turned into landscape mode?If so, which way was it turned?Or does it mean a device which is naturally landscape?In other words, LANDSCAPE could mean that the screen axis is off from the sensor axis by +90, 0, OR -90 degrees.Not much help.So how do I do this?Obviously I want my app to work on all devices, not just the G1 phone.
I have some doubt about the amount of RAM in my Android device . Not sure if it has 256 MB or 512 MB . I was able to run through a terminal in android : cat / proc / meminfo
Apparently I have approximately 466MB of RAM. If so will I have 512 MB. The question comes because if I run the command "free" or if I see from the above command in LowTotal line, only tells me 233 MB ...
What is the correct information in RAM for my device? I did the same procedure to another cell which mine where I'm more sure of having 512 MB of memory and this is what I get: URL>...The funny thing is that it shows me 584 MB of MemTotal and the same amount for LowTotal. It seems my device, the first , is not using the total amount of RAM available.
I have a probably silly and stupid question. I did the sbf file to bring my phone back to stock (I have to give my phone to a family member, long story). Anyway, when I did the sbf file it recovered all my apps, and one of them was SetCPU.
SetCPU won't run unless it has root access correct? I mean the fact that it was installed (and then uninstalled) it can't change anything without root access to the device correct?
I am using droidlife's suggestion on how to root droid x 2.2 and when i copy the files to the correct folder and then hit doroot.bat all i get it "searching for device" the drivers are downloaded but when debugging is turned on it wants to download drivers for wb810.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I want to do is be able to map arbitrary keycodes to execute custom commands. I purchased a Bluetooth numeric keypad, and with CM7, I am able to sync it and generate key events. However, they're not mapped to anything, so it's pretty useless. My hope in buying this product was the ability to map the keys to input events and be able to control my phone (Maps, IME, etc) while my phone is docked in my car so I'm not doing the "distracted driving" thing. So, is there a way I could code an app/service that would capture key/scancodes and execute user-defined commands (such as screen events)? Further, could this service change its behavior when the IME is active, allowing me to map the keys to the on-screen keyboard? I use a T9 app, and if the program could map to screen events when the IME is active allowing me to type T9 on a physical keyboard, that would be amazing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAny way to take games with virtual controllers (D-Pad and buttons) and map them to physical keys?" Either on a built-in keyboard like the Droid 4, or the Xperia Play's keys, or even mapping them to a third party device such as a bluetooth keyboard or Wiimote/PS3 controller.
So what I was wondering, is if there already is an app out there that can take a point on the touchscreen, and assign it to a keypress on a physical device?
Could someone point me to the documentation or example on how my application can intercept button pushes on an already paired and connected bluetooth device?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI flashed my Verizon Note 2 (SCH-I605) to the SOKP Rom from a Jedi X Rom (v13 I believe). After the flash, I noticed my network was not working. Eventually I found out that the device was registering as a GT-7105. Not sure what went wrong, as the rom was flashed with no errors. I also ensured that my recovery was on the appropriate version (TWRP 2.6.3.3 in this case) and I also did a factory reset. To try and rectify the issue I wiped the phone and tried various other roms. In every one of those cases I found that the phone was constantly roaming. I had checked my network mode and tried switching between Global and LTE/CDMA which did nothing. Being completely out of options, I just installed to a stock rom through Odin (VRAMC3 4.1.2) and let it update via Wifi to 4.3 and still nothing. (I am well aware of the Knox security feature and will address this in a moment)
Here are the different ways I tried to diagnose the issue after this that led nowhere:
1. Made contact with a Tier-2 specialist from Verizon that tried various diagnostic methods and found that my phone was simply not registering on the Verizon network, or ANY other network for that matter.
2. I went to a Verizon store and got my SIM card replaced.
3. I even went to a repair shop to see if the phone possibly had a faulty connection.
I have already verified that the IMEI is correct based on the sticker behind the battery. The PRL is on 15310. The very last thing I tried was entering "getprop" inside a terminal. I'm taking a guess here, but I noticed my ril.serialnumber was all 0s. If I need to root my phone again to try something, I am more than willing to. My phone is out of warranty and not insured, I'm not really concerned about the Knox warranty trigger unless it will render my phone completely unusable.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've got a 3TB external drive drive hooked up to my Ouya running CM11 (Android 4.4)
I run Nzbget and Transmission in optware, and use CM primarily as a vehicle for XBMC so I need the space.
I had it in 2 ext4 partitions which needed a init script to mount under the stock OS.
I was hopping to get it working in a less hacky manner under CM.
I tried with the two parts, and no go so i redid it with one big partition with root as the UID and sdcard_rw as the GID.
Still no dice. I can access it in File Manager with elevated permissions, but no go in XBMC or other apps.
Also tried one big exFAT partioning with no luck.
I plugged in an 8g ntfs drive I had and it automounted it no problem.
What is the right way to configure the drive? We're a Linux household so sticking with ext2/3/4 would be ideal. NTFS I would like to avoid.
I'm trying to get the lat/long values, from the corners of the screen. But my getProjections don't make any sense.. I mean ... mymap.getProjection().fromPixels(0, 0) or mymap.getProjection().fromPixels(screenWidth, screenHeight) just delivers me unreal numbers..
I'm trying to set up an algorythm that would avoid cluster of graphics in the map and for that, the app needs to know which area of the screen is being showed latitude/longitude wise.
For example:
CODE:..............
I am not able to find out the perfect layout(viewgroup) to place four buttons as shown in the attached image. Basically, i want to place four buttons near the top/left/bottom/right edge of the screen. AbsoluteLayout helped, but it is deprecated (It is also better to avoid AbsoluteLayout as it is not very flexible for orientation changes)
