Dear, All Dev

Can the four touch button change their position from

Left to Right:

Home > Search > Back > Menu

to be:

Search > Menu > Back > Home

I hold with my right hand, for me this position is difficult to use with only one hand.

Can someone help?

I actually think single hand operation is ok with right hand and just the thumb, how are you using it?

Looking at how he wants the button layout to be, I'm guessing he's got relatively small hands (or a bandsaw accident).

And yes, it is possible to change the layout, I believe the file you will want to mod is: (not sure though)

/system/usr/keylayout/a1-keypad.kl

Interesting, I looked at them but they only seem to contain the keys for the hardware button, for camera, volume etc

Yes, I'm small guy with small hand :)

It used to slip twice, first it's OK but the last, back cover broke at the edge. :)

Now I have to use silicone case that I hate, because total size bigger and heavier.

Another solution never try is cover the backside with matt sticker.

Anyway, thanks for all replys, for me these button position is the best for everyday using.

Check /sys/board_properties/virtualkeys.<devicename> file.

The format is 0x01:keycode:posx:posy:notsure:notsure (* the number of touch buttons you have).

Keycodes are in the /system/usr/keylayout directory.

You could replace the touch positions...
