SmarToolkit, improve smartphone startmenu - HTC Tornado

http://www.e-natives.web.id/
I gave it a try, it's amazing even in alpha version

I used it some time ago... So, what can I say? I can say, that it's useless, excluding the operation "Reboot" And the very big "-" is that the "clipboard" is attached to the "red button", so we're losing the possibility: 1) to end the talk as usual, 2) exit from the application as usual. And about 2): We could exit from it also using "Home" button, but now it is used too!! And how do we need to exit from the application???

1) ending talk is still working
2) to exit an application just push the home button twice

First of all - thank you, author, very much!!! VERY light and useful soft
Now - about buggz
Try to begin new SMS, right softkey - try to use addressbook to select recipient number when 2p mode is started Of couse, we can disable this mode during "special" events - but still hope, that this bug can be fixed

Yes, but I used to do "1)" pressing red key for 1 time, not for 5! and "2)" pressing red key too... but if we get accustomed to use this number of keys - it will be great. I couldn't do so

for me this is the most useful software on my SP. Cannot use a smartphone without it!

'Convert' volume slider to up/down arrows?

I have tried AE Button Plus v2.6.6 and looked at all the possibilities to 'Convert' volume slider to up/down arrows. There is no setting that I can find to do this. Has anyone found a way to do this? It states in the AE Button Plus documentation that this can be done.
Thank you in advance.
i don't know what phone you're using, but every windows phone i've used has been able to do it pretty easily.
in AE, choose one of the volume button and go to the button edit screen and choose "handle by AEBPlus"
select single press and then on the third drop down menu, choose "Press up arrow key" or whichever and you should be set
SortInchKey
I use this and it works well :

But it's difficult to configure.

3/6/09 - Did a Softreset today and now the Arrow Up and Down do not work. Reverted back to Volume up and down? Retried what I did before, checked settings and they are correct. Does it matter that I have an Unregistered version? I do have the INK in my startup.
Maybe it does...

Apparently it does, because when I installed my old version 2.6.2 it does work. However, if I try to install 2.6.6 I need a new Serial number. So, the newer versions require additional $$$$$. No more free upgrades. That is really getting expensive now. Thanks for your help!
On the wizard there was a cab called smartskey which changed the volume slider. I can't remember exactly what it did though - it might help you.

Disconnect DataConnection via code.... (Eg: Mortscript)

How to disconnect GPRS via code? (eg Mortscript)
I mean just launching a script, without use CommManager or the "bubble"...
There must be a way. Some people have written software that turns 3G on/off, so there must be a similar way (without using something that switches the connection off after a few time)...
Thanks in advance for any answer...

I knew that command, but it doesn't work on my device (and in others too)...
Please help!
If i'm not mistaken, in the main Mortscript Examples thread in the dev&hack section there's a script to automatically download emails using a data connection. you can see if it contains that script.
cant you use long press key and choose disconnect data? works for me no probs?

ah but you can change long press key settings. its in settings/buttons/end key or sometimes in settings/system/.

Do you know what is the reg key which is editet with this simple operation?
Is there any possibility to simulate long press red button to disconnect GPRS via code?
I too would love to find a key button way or larger touch screen way to manually disconnect the data connection. The 3G sign is so small - I have to take out the stylus.

well depending on the build of your rom, the long press end key will end data connection if yoyu so wish, you just have to select the item in the settings as decribed above. I dont see the need for script or code to do this if your rom supports the function anyway?
That's great advice - thanks but my rom is obviously different.
ie. In the pulldown menu for button functions - there is no end option. The nearest thing is OK/Close but long holding that changes the speaker/vibrate - it doesn't effect the data connection..
Sorry I was assuming we needed to add a different function to one of the hardware keys. In which case an `end' was not in the pulldown options for button assigning. I finally realized that simply pressing the call end key itself does indeed disconnect the data connection.
Thanks a lot for your help.
no problems my friend

Camera Button Anyone?

Hi I was just wondering if there was any way of setting a button eg. the Back or Hangoff button , to work as the photo capturing button only in the camera mode? and be able to work as it normally does whenever im doing something else~ thx
Hi,
this new app will allow you to remap the key you want to use. You will have to remap it to emulate Enter. It allows you to use this mapping for example only when the camera is turned on, it's really cool app
thank you so much^^ time to try it out now =)
sry could u help me with one more thing? i figured out how to remap the "back" key to emulate "enter" but i cant seem to get to to only work during camera? could u plz tell me how i can do that? thx
In the keyboard config app go to Menu > Add key
Press key you want to remap
Near the Rule field there is a plus sign, click it.
Then follow the instructions, capturing via stylus works great, you just have to launch camera and then put stylus back in.
The app will create a new rule and the mapping will work only when camera is opened.

It's not entirely correct what you write. I already had that app to remap keys and it works great, didn't think I could use it to emulate enter and map it to my camera. So I did what you wrote but that didn't work. I've figured it out now and here is how I've done it:
1 - Open the remap application
2 - Press key you want to remap
3 - Near the Rule field there is a plus sign, click it.
4 - Then follow the instructions, capturing via stylus works great, you just have to launch camera and then put stylus back in.
5- Event = Click
6 - Action = Emulate key press
7 - Key = Enter
8 - Click ok
9 - Click update config
Now when I click the "end key" the camera takes a picture. This works way better then having to click on the screen itself because it doesn't matter how soft or careful you click the screen, the picture is always a bit blurry of kinda like out of focus.
Thanks for pointing out this great feature!!
Cheers
thx for the replys
i figured out that i needed to first set the 'back' key to defalut key action this allows it to work as usual whenever im doin something else, then add another funtion to the 'back' key to allow it to emulate enter only during camera ^^ if i didnt do the first step the 'back' key is just nothing when the camera isnt on ~
anywayz thx for all ur replys, now i can take great photos XD

Glad you figured that out. I didn't tell you that because I asumed that you just wanted to use the end key as "enter" for your camera and not as "to close a program".
I've set it to click = enter for the camera and long press give me the options to lock the phone and so on....
Cheers!

[ How-To ] Disable Search Button

For those that don't use it for anything and want to disable it cause you accidently hit it 10 times a day, flash the disable zip. If you want to enable it again, just flash the default zip
does that take care of the button completely or just it's long-press function?
Nice work! Do you think you could make it so i can hit the volume up button to bring the phone out of suspend instead of hitting the power button?
Both of the .kl files are the same...just giving ya a heads up before someone restores the default and doesn't have their search button back...but nice find. Thanks!
The default one was the one I forgot to put in there but it's fixed now

Completely disabled
Besides disabling the search button, is it possible to map it to do something else like launch internet or something of that sort?
nice i seen a few people complaining that they kept hitting it all the time. good work bro

Its probably not built into the Sense build on the device. It used to be, but idk anymore since it isn't required by Android 2.0+
Also, to the people that want it to do something else:
See my post here. My guide is from way back in the G1 days, but all the same things apply here. Just change file names. An interesting use would be to change the search button to a camera button
Or see Decad3nce's wonderful writeup on the functions you can assign here. For the CDMA Hero, again just use your judgement. Use the right files
Also, my app Search2Play will soon be making it's way to the Evo now that we have usermode system partition access. Check it out here
Nice! Thanks for this, I always hit that button by accident.
Thank you! That damn button annoys the hell out of me everyday
Strange. I love the search button and use it all the time to text, call, launch apps etc.
Glad this is helpful to all the rest!
thanks!! i hit that damn button all the time

calkulin, would you be okay with me adding this to the online kitchen im slowly building for the EVO?
i'll link it back to this thread and credit your name.
If your looking to use the volume down you can just open the keymap~.kl file included in the zip with wordpad and swap the volume down and power or how ever you like. Just realize that the cap buttons won't work in place of the hardware buttons.
I posted a fix that swapped the volume down and the power button.
Nice fix tho.

Assistant button customizable without root

This thread just to let you know that with the latest beta of tasker the assistant button is finally fully customizable, without root.
I now use it for torch with screen off and it works like a charm.
Thank you joaomgcd!
Can you tell me how to remap the button with Tasker?

First remove any command or app linked to the assistant button in phone settings.
Now you need the latest beta of tasker (5.9 beta 8 fixed) from playstore or from this url (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UfMEt1H6wjlMDdsqByn-flCRqE45PdJ1/view) and set a logcat entry input.
Tasker will ask for READ_LOGS permission, grant it with adb.
After that, in logcat entry settings a popup should appear, as fast as you can press "play" to start recording logcat then press the assistant button and then press "stop" recording. Now you should have a short list of events that happened on your phone between play and stop.
The event you need is called something like "inputReader key event: device=8 type=0x0001 value..." so find it and click it.
If everything is ok you should have on tasker the logcat entry command as following (or something like that):
Component:
InputReader
Filter:
key event: device=8 type=0x0001 value=0x00000001
Now you just need to set a task for this command like torch or whatever you like.
Thanks!
it works well
"device=10 type=0x0001 value=0x00000001"
thank you

the instructions given are not very clear for my noob brain to comprehend, but after days of fiddling i finally figured out and will try to explain this step by step as clear as possible for those who are confused like i was.
1. Add profile - go to "profile" tab and add a profile (the plus thing)
2. select "event", then at the bottem of the popup type "logcat entry". then select it.
3. at the "Component" row, click the magnifying glass icon, a popup shows up then press "ok",
4. u should be at homescreen with a play button hovering, press it to start recording, then press the assistant key once, then stop recording.
5. now u see a huge list of logcat events, type in "input" and look for something that looks like:
"InputReader: Key event: device=10 type=0x0001 value=0x00000001 when=79793650102000"
then select it.
6. now this is the part that confused me the most, So at first it wasnt working, It turns out after you recorded the input, at the "Filter" row below "Component", you need to edit the thing to just
"Key event: device=10 type=0x0001 value=0x00000001"
without the "when" param. then it should work.
7. then set it to whatever task. for torch i think you just create new task, look for "torch" then set it to "toggle" or something

OMG you're awesome thanks! :victory:
I noticed that when I restarted my phone, tasker didn't work anymore. The value for Device was 10 but running the logcat again, the phone changed the key event to 8. I wonder why it does that.

And without the device value it doesn't work.

I'll have a look in a few minutes but i think the device value just switches between 8 and 10, so we can just make another event in tasker for the value 10 and it should work no matter which value is present at the moment
Edit: So i reboot a few times and got device ID from 6-10. Now it seems to be stuck at 6, really dont know why.
But i'll just keep event with device ID from 6-10 to be sure.
I made clones of the events. Is there a more efficient way to do this? Like an OR argument in a single Event?
Does having Tasker in the background capturing keys use any additional battery?
I have been using shake light from the app store to make it work sorta like my old Motorola (shake the phone for torch) but it requires the app to keep a notification on in order to continue listening in the background and even then sometimes doesn't work if the device is in deep sleep. I'm considering other options and setting that key for torch would be amazing, but I'm wondering if it's any better/worse than what I'm doing now.
hi i managed to follow instructions however, when i press the button i get both the assistant and torch turning on at same time. any ideas how to turn off the assistant when pressing button?
cheers

Did you disable the assistant button in the normal device settings? This should do the trick. Just search for "assistant" and the relevant settings page should pop up.
