I would like to use the onKeyDown event to react to hardware buttons on my phone. So I added the following to my class:

@Override public boolean onKeyDown (int keyCode, KeyEvent event) ...

But this gives me the following compiler error:

"The method onKeyDown(int, KeyEvent) of type MyClass must override or implement a supertype method"

Does anyone have an idea of how to fix this? Thanks!

Does your MyClass extend a Activity? It must do so in order for you to get the key events.
