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.
Hello,
I have several programs installed on my card (not device). How can I place them in the programs shortcuts in TF3D? They do not appear in the All Programs list and are not selectable. I made a shortcut and placed it into the Program Files folder, but they still are not on the All Programs list.
I do need to run the programs from the card (IGO8 for example).
Other vendors (SPB) gives you an option to place a file or folder as your shortcut, but TF3D does not.
Anyone knows a solution? Any help is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Mike
Searching for a [program].exe that switch to next active application.
(To be assigned to the startbutton)
Do anyone know if there is one?
i only know there is in quickmenu, HWbuttons, etc, as part of other programs, or as .lnk files. The program Startbutton can only use .exe files.
Here you go.
thanks!
Hi,
does any one know how to enable zoombar for other programs as "Total Commander, Calendar, Resco Explorer, Contacts, IE, Facebook, File Explorer" ?
I want to zoom not scroll!
Thanks for any help.
same problem in Opera10, Skyfire and other programs... GPS programs like iGO8 or TomTom. How to enable it? Like add some info in config.ini or other config files?? But how to define ZOOMBAR??? Maybe Chefs can help =) Thanx in advance!!
I don't think it will work with a program unless it's specifically designed for zooming. GPS programs, image viewers and some browsers should be capable of it, but I doubt file managers like T.C. would.
Hello all,
Been doing as much reading as possible trying to figure out what I am sure is an obvious in my face answer. I am trying to use Resco Explorer to make a couple changes but i can not locate HKLM in order to;
Go to HKLM/Software/Samsung/JINBOX and set "ThreadedViewDisabled" from 0 to 1.
I have Resco 2010 with the addins. I understand this to be "the" program to use. But I can't find a "dummies" how to use it...
Any help would be appreciated.
Resco Explorer
Hi Iam trying to find KKLM software in resco explorer.
Does anyone know how I find this ?
There's no such thing like KKLM in Windoze, unless you create a folder named like this.
Maybe you mean HKLM and you can find it in the registry...but you need to have a registry editor installed (in Resco's case, the registry add-on).
If you have installed the registry add-on, follow these steps:
Tap the 'up' button multiple times until you reach the end.
There, you can see something like 'registry'.
Tap it, tap HKEY Local Machine, tap Software, etc.
thank you
