I don't know if it was mentioned before, but I was messing with the game, and found out, that after connecting an USB keyboard with the OTG cable, you can actually play the game with it, like on PC :)

Direction buttons work great, you can walk around, with space you jump, hit enter to get in the car, c to change camera, a-s-d-w look around... unfortunately I couldn't find out a way to shoot, and sprint... but cars can be well driven with keyboard :D even handbrake works :)

I found in another topic that PC cheats also work, and I can confirm it, as the keyboard was connected, I could type in cheats with it, and they worked :D

I only tried GUNSGUNSGUNS for all weapons, and it worked, but I think all the cheats work :)

If someone finds a way to shoot and sprint, please post it :)

I think this might be the right topic so I will ask here.

I've got the game instaled&working on my SE Xperia Pro. As my phone has a built-in keyboard, all the cheats and the game-controls work just fine :)

The only problem I've got is that I can't change the keyboard controls (for the built-in keyboard, not for the on-screen controls).

Does anyone have a sugestion how to do it? :confused:

CONTROLS

For me, on the physical keyboard
sprint is 1 on the num row
shoot is 2 on the num row
jump is 3 on the num row
4 is to get in the car
6 & 8 is to cycle the weapons
aswd and arrow keys are to move the character on foot & in car
ijkl is to around in first person
c is to change camera mode
enter is to enter the menu in game
when in the menus arrow keys to scroll through and 1 to enter and 2 to go back
