Hello all,
Is there a way to exit the python shell to the main screen of the device after it does an execution for 2nd and 3rd editions?
Thank you

hello eng_electric

do you want to do that programatically??

Or normally you can do it by pressing the red exit key on the device.

If you still want to get some good replies please and again please explain your question in bit detail.

Call the quit function when the execution finishes.

If you mean the home screen (by main screen) of the device, you would need to simulate the red key! Beware: Simulating the red key might also terminate your application in 3r edition (Use envy extension, if needed to disable this).

If there is a way to do it programatically without the user having to press any button. For example if i wanted to call it by e32.start_exe(), how would i call the .app file?

@croozeus

Yes, the home screen is the main screen. I did try to use red key, but it doesn't work. I tried to simulate the red key by the following:

from key_codes import *
import keypress

keypress.simulate_key(EKeyNo, EScancodeNo)

it did not work, tho it did for the other simulation of keys such as right soft keypress. I did try to make it as (EKeyNo, EKeyNo) but that did not work as well. Would it be useful if i exchanged the values as their representative numbers?

I would like to first try on the 2nd edition then on the 3rd. Thank you

Try this to simulate the red key:

keypress.send_raw_event(keypress.EKeyDown,EScancodeNo)
keypress.send_raw_event(keypress.EKeyUp,EScancodeNo)

@bogdan.galiceanu

the raw event is for 3rd edition right? because i tried it on the second edition and i get an error.

says
keypress.send_raw_event(keypress.EKeyDown, EScancodeNo) attributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'send_raw_event'

This is the code am trying to simply test on

import keypress
from key_codes import *
print "Hello"

I tried the suggested

keypress.send_raw_event(keypress.EKeyDown,EScancodeNo)
keypress.send_raw_event(keypress.EKeyUp,EScancodeNo)

which gave the error above. I have installed all the required. Different key simulations works fine except the red key.

BTW, for 2nd edition phones I'm using keypress V.1.02, Should i use a newer version?

Hello all again,
I was trying the menu key and found it out dont work for me. I'm testing it on nokia 7610 and the code is:

from key_codes import *
import keypress, e32

keypress.simulate_key(EKeyMenu,EScancodeMenu)
e32.ao_sleep(1)

Does it work on higher second editions? can someone who have FP1 2nd edition confirm this. Thank you
