Hi Dianna,
Thanks for your reply. In fact my problems are in fact even more basic. The command 'sendevent' requires following parameters device type code value How do I have to specify all these parameters. Let's take for example the emulator and let's assume I'd like to press the 'down' key My questions are: device: is this the device string, that I can find with "cat /proc/bus/ input/devices" type: what is this? code: what is this? value: I assume this is what I could find in the *.kl files, that you mentioed. In order to bother you and the forums less with this kind of questions I would be glad to be pointed to the adequate documentation explaining how sendevent is working and what the parameters of sendevent mean. thanks in advance K On Apr 16, 6:34 pm, Dianne Hackborn <[email protected]> wrote: > The codes you send through the driver are the raw events, before they have > been translated to Android key codes, so it depends on your hardware. > You'll want to look at the source code of whatever build you are using -- > there will be a *.kl file somewhere mapping from the driver codes to android > codes. > > > > On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 8:54 AM, a druid <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hi searup. > > > I have one more question. > > As a newbie I have still the basic problem of locating the document > > ation, that I need for some tasks. > > > Which document(s) / url list(s) the possible devices / types / key- > > codes key-values ? > > > thanks a lot in advance. > > > On Apr 16, 2:46 pm, swarup <[email protected]> wrote: > > > try > > > > $ adb shell sendevent <device> <type> <key-code> <value-press> ; adb > > > shell sleep 1 #seconds; adb shell sendevent <device> <type> > > > <key-code> <value-release> > > > > above is for 1 second long press > > > > On Apr 14, 11:46 pm, Dan Raaka <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > I am using this a work-around for the non-working home key in the 1.0 > > > > or 1.1 emulator. > > > > If there is fix for it.
