Remap the function keys on an Anker slim bluetooth keyboard

99-AnkerBT-keyboard.hwdb

# Invert Anker A7726 Keyboard FN Keys
#
# This is the keyboard I bought:
# https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B00U260UR0/
# But the fn keys default to media keys which is very annoying.
#
# This will make the FN media keys function as F keys without pushing the FN
# button. Also you can still use the media keys by pushing the FN + Media key
# combination.
#
# Place this file in the udev hwdb directory:
# /etc/udev/hwdb.d/99-AnkerBT-keyboard.hwdb
#
# Run the following to apply the new mapping immediately:
#
# $ sudo systemd-hwdb update && sudo udevadm trigger
#
# CAUTION: Because Anker functions are split into 3 event devices, Gnome may
# not recognize the new keys until restarted.
#
# Basic process to find these mappings:
#
# The Anker keyboard will show up as three event devices. You can see all three
# after running:
#
# $ sudo evtest
#
# No device specified, trying to scan all of /dev/input/event*
# Available devices:
# /dev/input/event0:      Sleep Button
# /dev/input/event1:      Power Button
# /dev/input/event2:      Power Button
# ...
# /dev/input/event14:     Anker A7726 Keyboard
# /dev/input/event15:     Anker A7726 Consumer Control
# /dev/input/event16:     Anker A7726 System Control
#
# The media keys are part of "Consumer Control" while the normal F keys are
# part of "Keyboard".
#
# Select each and push each key to get the scancode output. This is the example
# for the "Back/Esc" key under "Consumer Control" device:
#
# Event: time 1564823511.343137, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 4 (MSC_SCAN), value c0224
# Event: time 1564823511.343137, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 158 (KEY_BACK), value 1
# Event: time 1564823511.343137, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
# Event: time 1564823511.367005, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 4 (MSC_SCAN), value c0224
# Event: time 1564823511.367005, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 158 (KEY_BACK), value 0
# Event: time 1564823511.367005, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
#
# The scan code is the "value c0224" part.
#
# Add the scan code to this file with the format:
#
# KEYBOARD_KEY_c0224=esc 
#
# to change the key function.
#
# The device match string parts can be found at the top of the evtest outputr:
# 
# Input device ID: bus 0x5 vendor 0x291a product 0x8502 version 0x11b
# Input device name: "Anker A7726 Keyboard"
#
# Be careful when converting this to the udev format because the letters must
# be in all caps and exactly 4 hex digits.
#
# To apply this mapping, use:
#
# $ sudo systemd-hwdb update && sudo udevadm trigger
#
# Re-run evtest to check the new mappings for each device:
#
# $ sudo evtest
#
# Gnome may not immediately reflect some of the mappings for some reason. So
# you may have to restart Gnome to see the changes in the desktop environment.
# As long as evtest shows the correct desired key code everything mapped
# correctly.
