Don't require input method #253

Closed hoshsadiq closed 2 years ago

hoshsadiq commented 4 years ago

Button Mapper is able to do a lot of the current functionality in KeyMapper without root and without requiring it to be set as an input method. Is it possible finding out how Button Mapper does this and implementing a similar mechanism?

Would eliminate the need for #111 while simultaneously giving users choice. Hopefully with less effort.

Yeah. I see what you mean. I can't find any actions button mapper has where I have used an input method to do the same thing.

Not sure I follow what you mean. What I'm referring to is that currently (and I appreciate that this might be me only) I am using this on an Android TV. After remapping any key, the only way it'll register the inputs and trigger the configured actions is by setting the Input Method to be KeyMapper's Keyboard, which of course makes the OSK in ATV unusable. This is not the case with Button Mapper. So was hoping that it can be done the same or similar way within KeyMapper, therefore eliminating the need to implement the AOSP keyboard.

Oh, okay. Is this the case with ANY action or just actions which require the key mapper input method to be chosen?

Hi, any news on this?

sds100 commented 3 years ago

As far as I'm aware this request isn't possible. I would need someone else to show that it is. One can now use Shizuku in 2.4.0.

Any news on how to make this work from anyone? Impossible as far as im aware
