Broadcast receiver that listens to hard button in android

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2012771

Question

Is there a cross device hard button in android that a background service can listen to and act when it is pressed/released?

Thanks

Was it helpful?

Solution

No. You can set up a BroadcastReceiver to watch for the CAMERA or MEDIA buttons, but those are not always available -- some devices do not have the CAMERA button, and the MEDIA button is for use with wired headsets.

Sorry!
