• Disabling hardware capacitive keys.
  1. Go to system/usr/keylayout and open 'atmel-maxtouch.kl' with ES Note Editor.
  
  
  2. In the end of that file there will be following three lines:
     
     
     

     Code:

     
     

     ---

     key 139    MENU    VIRTUAL
key 102    HOME    VIRTUAL
key 158    BACK    VIRTUAL

     ---

     
     
  
  
  3. Add a '#' before each line so it would look like this:
     
     
     

     Code:

     
     

     ---

     #key 139    MENU    VIRTUAL
#key 102    HOME    VIRTUAL
#key 158    BACK    VIRTUAL

     ---

     
     
  
  
  4. Save the file and exit.
