@Elektrobier - This might be related to Jolla not yet passing on gamepads and other input devices to android apps.

@kimmoli - can you add a feature to keep the backlight permanently on when phone is charging? (and also perhaps extend the max timeout to around 15 seconds?)

Are you really trying to use your TOHKBD2 for gaming?
This unique piece of hardware? Probably the last batch of physical keyboards for Jolla? Being Jolla probably the last phone with "The Other Half" concept and the last phone offering an optional landscape physical keyboard?
I would rather play ping-pong over a Van Gogh picture. My Jolla and my TOHKBD2 must last 5-10 years. The last chance of human kind before falling into idiocracy, overmuscled thumbs and virtual keyboards.
At least until the inevitable release of the TOHGamepad.

I guess being able to use as gamepad may require mapping and makes Alien Dalvik recognise it? I don't know if anyone has done it.

Gaming is not my primary use for the tohkbd
Thats textsecure and the console for me. But playing a round snes or something would be a nice addon
the tohkbd is recognized by the emulator and i can map the keys in 1.1.7.25 and even the dpad is recognized by alien dalvik. And the functions work when you press them. For example jump on the key l works. But you can't hold a key, when you press right for walking it behaves like right is pressed again and again. I think it's a problem with key repress rate. even on lowest setting this behaviour remains. so my question @kimmo is can you do something about that with the tohkbd software? do the keys have a 'is pressed continously' status ?

Use Wifi/3G or keyboard on right-side of phone as workaround.
So would you consider to offer another setting for "force landscape when kbd connected" like choosing left/right side?

From conversation on IRC, I believe the current situation is:
- TOHKBD relies on underlying Sailfish rotation settings
- Current Sailfish rotation settings don't allow 'inverted' landscape
- We all hope that changes as of Sailfish 2.x, in time for the tablet
