MyTouch android phone's menu button doesn't work

Question

hi,

i am writing this action game, but i notice that when there are a lot of actions going on

during the game, the menu button on my MyTouch phone doesn't work. i have to pause the game

before the menu buttons works. i tried raising the priority of the activity thread by doing

this:

i also tried to lower the game thread's priority with setPriority() but none of the above

work.

the only thing that work was adding a bunch of buttons beneath the game view. can someone

help me? thanks.

ok now i tried this:

return true for all keys i use in my game and super.onKeyDown(event) for everything else, now the menu button sort of works in that pressing it brings up the keyboard (not the settings menu), even if i am not doing a long touch.
