Quick question - does anyone know of a way to stop the stock messaging software from sending text messages when you hit enter? I'm used to the enter button doing what anyone would expect it to do - to insert a new line, but I found you actually have to press "control+enter" to do that, which is acceptable, but I find myself accidentally hitting enter at times when I don't mean to, forcing me to apologize for incomplete messages. Can this behavior in the stock messaging application be reversed?

Thanks.

You'd have to remap the keys in usr/keychars user/keylayout and usr/idc but unfortunately I lack the knowledge of exactly what to change.

While I neither have my Epic registered as a phone and so I can't text, nor know of a way to help, I can empathize with you entirely! If I've been talking to people on MSN or Yahoo (on PC) all day and then respond to an email, I end up doing the same thing... Those two chat programs send when you hit enter as well, so I am very used to hitting CTRL+Enter to make a new line and it's just second nature to me now; however, if I am in the middle of chatting and then reply or send an email, in Yahoo Mail hitting ctrl+enter is the shortcut the send the email. :eek: So I've frequently sent emails that are, typically, missing links.


OK I lied, I might be able to help, only thanks to Google lol I totally dig the idea of having the Epic's keyboard act like a "Full" keyboard (last post), but some apps already do not keep Shift or Function stickied when pressed and I find that annoying :\ Since we can already Shift+Arrow to select, Func+A/X/C/V would be cool. I'll have to try out the Menu+ alternative he mentioned.

Alias! :D

How are the builds looking on the AOKP repository? Any closer to fixing those issues you were worried about a month or so ago?

I don't want to remap the keys all around, I just don't want this to be switched up on the messaging application.

    Alias can always fix that up for us though , I'm sure ... ;)

    If I get some time tonight, we will go for another build.
    Also, I put my app in tonight to be a device maintainer.

    Thank you for the update notice.


    LTE data toggle should be WiMax instead since the Epic doesn't even have an LTE radio...

    Also what's up with b34?

    If I didn't know this already, I shouldn't be compiling a ROM for you all.
    And since you want to be rude and tell people about taking pills... have yourself a chill pill :)

    New build, in case no one knew o_O
    http://forum.aokp.co/page/releases/_/build-34-r19

    P.S. Why aren't we officially supported?! ):

    As mentioned, its going through some proper channels.
    There are some pieces of code I edit manually that enables ours and disables others.
    I have to figure out a way to make both happy before we can be joyously supported.


    Annnnddd further more. There are a few of you that appear to feel you are entitled to the work I do.
    Maybe a reminder is needed... I don't get paid for this. This is not my job.
    I have a life, which you are merely included in because you click the download button on the work I've shared.
    You are not entitled to it, its a privilege.
    If I had the choice to take that privilege away, some of you would no longer have it.
    Be grateful for what life and people give to you, it all can be taken away.
