Android device & keyword of the message

Post by Jellobus » Mon Apr 28, 2014 4:36 am

Hi, :)

I was looking for the message keywords of the buttons pressed on the android device. unfortunately I could not find answer. Unlike iphone, android device has two more additional buttons in addition to the home button. Does anyone know what message send when these buttons pressed?

Please see the attached picture below.

Thanks in advance!

The hardware back button can be trapped by a backkey handler, here's the example:

As far as the menu button, I'm not sure, maybe someone else has the answer to that one.
