Button/Firmware/Kepler Pro question

Hrafn · 08-03-2017, 12:06 AM

Much as I like my K Pro, I'm having an ongoing problem with the page turn buttons. The fact that they are recessed slightly behind the front of the bezel (due to the sides slopping towards the back) makes it difficult to give a proper press. This in turn leads to frequent overcompensation and my presses being interpreted by the firmware as a 'long press' -- which for the 'next page' button brings up the 'Home screen', meaning I have to reopen the book, leading to a few seconds delay ('back page' calls up some navigation menu that I have to 'Cancel' out of).

Is there any setting in the firmware for increasing the length of press before it is interpreted as "long"?

This is important. I have been wanting to modify the same, for the opposit reason (making the wait for triggering long-press shorter). I could never find the solution (the research could have been much longer). I think nonetheless that the definition of the "long press" is not in the Android system, but in an hardware configuration that is set "earlier" than the Operating System.
