Bluetooth mouse holding both mouse buttons performs screen capture - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently connected a bluetooth mouse to my note 3., the HP X4000b and it seems that when i press and hold both mouse buttons it takes a screenshot of my screen.
I managed to find a similar thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/remap-bluetooth-mouse-buttons-t2036291
but havent been able to find a definitive solution.
is there anyway to disable screenshot taking in the note 3 altogether ? or disable that action from being performed when holding both mouse buttons?
any help appreciated.
EDIT: It is actually by holding both mouse buttons

actually, i figured out a work around.
i just remapped some controls in the application i was using on the my remote desktop
i figured there isnt a way to turn off screencap without rooting, which im not prepared to do.

External keyboard

I plugged in a external keyboard(IBM/Lenovo Travel keyboard w/ trackpoint and trackpad).
For the most part it worked. I found a few interesting things:
Home - goes to your main home screen( i was using Launcher Pro Plus)
End - locks and turns off screen
Certain Fn keys lock screen
Middle mouse/wheel click - brings up menu
right mouse click - its the "back" menu button
Anyone else try other devices?

I bought and use a Maylong 150 KB. Works fine plugged into the USB port.

Map mouse buttons

I got a bluetooth mouse which connects easily and works very well - except that only the left button and the back-button are operating.
Is there anything around which will allow me to map the buttons - and the scrollwheel?
Thanks

Getting the power menu on CM10.1

Once you install CM10.1 on your Q, one vexing problem is how you get the power menu to show up.
I discovered that if I push the "hibernate" button (picture of a moon on it) on my Logitech wireless keyboard, that brings up the power menu. I have no idea what the usual keyboard equivalent would be (or even if there is one) if you don't have this key on your keyboard. However, it's certainly a useful thing to have.
I ended up just using a widget that adds shutdown / restart icons to my home screen. I wonder if I have a key combo I can pull up on my Rii i6 remote that will trigger that menu
I've been using Droidmote server (on the Q) and Droidmote client on my phone/tablet and it has a power button on the controller with arrows (page 2 in the client app). Droidmote has been working pretty well for me, but it has some minor issues that make it a little bit of a pain in the ass. It's still the most usable solution I've found yet.
I personally manage to get it from a Logitech keyboard, by pushing the "User" touch (left corner).
Other thing, how you restart the Q with CM 10.1 after shut it down? I haven't figured out yet so I always have to unplug/plug it..
Thanks!
I use Button Savior to bring up the power menu.

HELP! Controller constantly scrolls now.

I don't now what's happened to my controller but when it's set in the mouse mode the pointer will always just scroll towards the top. I've tried to recalibrate it several times and nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? I'm about to pull my hair out!
Thanks!
Mine is the other way - constantly scrolling to the bottom. I take it as a signal my batteries need changing!

I've had the same problem. Please try the following:
Recalibrating the pad:
1. If the pad is on, press and hold the home button for 5 seconds until the pad powers down.
2. Press and hold all four face button (a, b, x, y) down at once, then power the pad on.
3. The Home LED will shine purple, when it does press the Select button on the pad.
4. The Home LED will blink purple. When it does, move both analogue sticks and both triggers through
their full range of movement four times.
5. Press the Start button and the pad will continue to pair to its host.
Worked for my C.T.R.L. R which was included to my M.O.J.O.!
Jan, that is a fantastic tip! I just assumed the batteries needed refreshing.
I presume by "select button" you mean the "back" button on the stock CTRLR? There is no select button on this pad.

Oh sorry, you are right. Its the "back" button.
Did this work for your gamepad, too?
I can certainly confirm it performed as you state. I haven't played a great deal but it does seem to work. Thanks so much, adding this to my list of handy hints!
On another note, do you know of any other controllers that are fully compatible with the MOJO? I've tried wired USB pads but they don't seem to be detected, certainly not by something like Retroarch. I like the CTRLR a great deal but I think I'd feel "safer" if I knew I could replace it easily if I need to in the long term. I have an official PS3 pad that would be nice to link up if possible. Any advice much appreciated.
