Hi, I'm building an app that needs an "emergency" key combination to fire an alarm. I was planning to use some hardware key combination like "pressing center button for 3 seconds" or "home and back together", but all i've been able to find are negative answers to anything that seems like key capture. I fully understand the security issues in capturing all the keystrokes or special keys like home or end call. However, there should be a way to assign an application to a given hardware key or at least to trap some of the hardware keys. Also, it should be done from a service with no user interface. Otherwise it's impossible to create such an application.
It looks like there are some key loggers out there, and even if don't want exactly that and will never install such an app, it seems that after all it is possible to capture key strokes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in avance, Narciso -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
