I have a cemail.vol file that I need to restore onto my replacement PDA (same OS)
I have done a search on this & have not come across a solid answer.
Can this be achieved by mortscript during startup from soft reset ?
Can I unhook cemail via registry changes ?
Any help would be great.
Most threads I come across had 50/50 results/opinions.
Someone must have an easy solution to this !
Thanks,
Since I have dumped the ATT rom and use MSN messenger the IM button is nowrendered useless. Anyone know how to map it to Messenger? THanks!
Anyone have a solution?
Fuze Keyboard re-mapping
Someone smart know? change keyboard layout on fuze to do this:
Function + IM button to run MSN messenger
I've never used this- so I'm not positive. But I think this is exactly what AEButton Plus can do.
I think you can assign any button to any program, so that might work for you.
Good luck!

This program will work perfect... Heres the problem now... I flashed to Romeos' new rom and that button is mapped to Contacts. So when I hit it now it opens contacts over msn messnger. how can I keep Contacts from opening. Isnt there just a way to get into the Registry and change the app that is asigned to the specific Key?
I am searching for the simplest solution to this. All I want to do is have the FN options for music open up my media player, have the globe button open up OPERA instead of PIE, the CV button to open up cellular video, etc. How do I edit the functions of these keys specifically in the registry? I don't want to use other software, just want to edit these keys and that is all. Could someone please advise.
There has to be a solution to this because one of the custom roms lets you re-link these keys using .lnk files. I think it is the DA_G rom.
agreed, I have searched the forums, but can't find anything that pertains to the FN capabilities of certain keys that I am knowledgable enough to understand... I have searched the registry and through the windows folder looking for something that could be edited... to no avail. I try.

This is not really gonna help me sadly. It may work, but would add an extra step, which is what I am trying to minimize. Almost miss the cluster of buttons on the tytn II, never thought I would say that...
keypad.dll driver in HTC Fuze Stock AT&T ROM executes 2 functions on each keypress - one is to pass the raw key code to the OS, other is to look for a shortcut in a specific location, and execute it if found. It is through this method that PTT can be re-bound, for example, through \Windows\Short_PTT.lnk and \Windows\Long_PTT.lnk
Stock driver executes the following shortcut when IM key is pressed:
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Instant Messaging.lnk
So to bind that key to Messenger, you simply need to create or copy a shortcut for Messenger, put it in the start menu, and name it "Instant Messaging"
In my cooked ROM i have modded the keypad.dll driver so that the start menu does not need to be cluttered in such a way, driver looks in \Windows\ dir instead.
Hope this info helps!
Thank worked like a charm.
Thanks for the info.
hmm. tried the .ink shortcut, tried aebutton, guess it's a no go for now on ROMeOS

Make sure it's not an .ink but .lnk (letter L).
also monx may have changed the driver in a similar way, maybe ask him if that's the case. Could be looking for the shortcut somewhere else.
I am looking in the windows directory now and was able to find the short_PTT.lnk and the long_PTT.lnk and was able to get them to work for the PTT button. Awesome, that is cool. I am looking for the right .lnk file to adjust to make the FN key do what I want to do, but I ran into a bit of a dilema now (by the way Da_G, PP on the way), the FN music button is not currently assigned to anything as well as a few others (from what I can tell) since when I press them, nothing happens. How would I locate the proper files to edit and create a new .lnk file for these buttons?
Had to bust out the good ol' hex editor to refresh myself on this since it's been a while since I modded the keypad.dll, but here are the stock shortcuts it looks for:
\Windows\Start Menu\Calendar.lnk
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Instant Messaging.lnk
\Windows\AppButtons\Contacts.lnk
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\MEdia Net Home.lnk
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Cellular Video.lnk
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\AT&T Music <--- note this one will open up the folder, not execute a .lnk
\Windows\Short_PTT.lnk \Windows\Long_PTT.lnk
\Windows\Short_Powerlnk \Windows\Long_Power.lnk
\Windows\Short_Explore.lnk
\Windows\Short_OperaL.lnk
\Windows\Short_Messaging.lnk
\Windows\Short_SMS.lnk
There's also \Windows\Long_Send.lnk, but that's reconfigurable through the button settings app, so probably don't need that one.
Hope this helps! The keypad.dll in my ROM remaps all the .lnk's that aren't in \Windows to be in \Windows, to avoid the need to stick stuff in the start menu where you might not want it.
I am going to try this out, just put on the InvisiShield, so I am waiting for that to cure before I turn the Fuze back on.

Do a search. Someone posted a simple way to program the long and short press of the PTT button. No reg edits, no program to install. You can map the buttons to any programs.
I used it on my pro. Just do an XDA a search for mapping PTT button. You'll find it.
Here's a tip to those who don't want to flash ROMs and want to remap those buttons. Make a duplicate of the thing you want a shortcut to, name it the right thing and put it in the right place, and then set it as hidden. Now when you browse in the start menu you do not see it, but the button will open the right thing.
Hi all,
I previously had a Hermes where there was a little tool to change the soft-keys at the coners of the screen to to applications of your choice.
Either I did not look to find the tool in the Raphael or it does not exist in the HTC standard ROM. Is there any tool to use for changein the soft-keys?
Thanks for support.
Best Regards
Rolf

put this fil in ur windows folder and voila...
in settings u can change the softkeys
Thanks, it works as expected until TouchFlo ist started . When TouchFlo is running, the keys automatically swich to left: Telephone, right: programms. I dont find a way to change that. Any suggestions?
Best Regards
Rolf
This is what I, found it in the diamond forum.
just change hklm\software\htc\manila its not hard. homelsk options for the left softkey and homersk for the right. path and text.
Hi Jack,
thanks, the solution works , even with touch-flo. I could put the calendar as soft key. Do You know the name of the file where the contats are stored?
Best Regards
Rolf
dont trust me too hard on this im doing it from memory, but... set your path to "\Windows\poutlook.exe" and your argument to "contacts". without quotes on both of course.
Hi Jack,
thanks, I will try this tomorrow, today I forgot my mobile in the office :-(.
Result: I tried it and nothing happened, no contacts shoowing up or any error-msg. So it should be an other file I guess. Do you have any idea?
Best regards
Rolf
i was wondering why that wouldnt work and i tried it on mine and it does. you can check your spelling for any typos or whatever but it should work. no quotes, no caps on contacts, \'s not /'s. hope you can get it working.
If you install the cab i posted you dont need to edit the registry, just select the app you want the link on the soft key to be and click save.
alot of people like to do it themselvs or dont like extra apps. ill check it out and see what it does later.
Hi,
so I tried again the manila cab that was postet above. Well, it works fine, I just cannot find the "contacts" in there which I like to set as left soft-key. The "calendar" setting works fine either as direct setting in the HKLM or using the cab.
I also tried again to start the poutlook.exe directly out of the file-explorer and in contrast to the start of the calendar, nothing happened. So it must be any other file to start ???
Also I tried to link the "kontakte" (a small link-file) directly in HKLM, but got an error-msg telling me that the file does not have the required security-attributes or whatsoever.
I will keep on searching but happy for any adviece.
Berst Regards
Rolf
my question is simple, i love the keyboard, i do not want to switch to anything else, yet i can not find the option to put a space after i choose a suggested word, so i constantly have to go back and insert spaces between words
any ideas?
no takers?
No idea here, but if you find a solution I would love to hear about it.
I see how to save the parameters of a forum search, but I do not find any way to bring back what I've saved. How is it done?
Does anybody know the answer?
