during calls...the right soft key shows Menu where you can only activate the speaker phone on Selection 3. On the left soft key it shows "Mute"..anyway to change the "Mute" to speaker phone??
sounds like it will be very complicated to do. Pretty much everything to do with custimisation of soft keys has been discussed already.
Best bet is to search all of the smartphones forums and the development forum.
It's very pointless. Speakerphone can be activated by holding green button during the call ;-)

Hi all.
I'm looking for a setting/application,
that when I get a call, I can set a button that answers in Speaker-Mode automatically.
I don't want to replace the Normal Answer function (The Green button).
Anything will help!
Thanks alot.

Thanks but that's not what i meant to.
I don't want it to Auto-Answer without me pressing any button.
I want to press a button to answer (like i click on the green one to answer)
but when i click it, it will answer in Speaker-Mode.
SpeakerPhone could be UR solution.

I don't own Touch Cruise, but am considering upgrading my Artemis. Does Cruise not function the same as Artemis where when you answer the phone using the green button if you hold the button a bit it goes into speaker mode? (reverse to go back to private conversation mode)

apparently yes!
I didn't know that before, and I just tried and it did...
if you hold the green button it goes to speaker mode and reverse...
Great, thank you! I did not know that either. A very good function.
Hi all,
Is there a tweak or something that allows for other ways to wake the phone from standby?
At the moment i have found that removing the stylus or opening the keyboard is the only way to wake the phone, to me this is kind of a odd behavior.
What if i want to make a one handed phone call, the above methods for bringing the device back to life is uncomfortable at best.
The mode i describe as standby is keys locked and screen powered down, in a perfect world i would like to press home and have the screen power up "dimmed" so that i can see where the unlock buttons are and go from there.
Is there a solution to this?
Im new to phones of this sort so if there is a generic solution i am not aware of it
Since nothing of relevance came up during my search im guessing that i am the only one who sees this as a problem?
Press the power button
ohh
Thank you
that was really funny but it's okay..
I press my bluetooth hands-free button for that.
OK with bluetooth hands-free button but starts voice dialer too.

Could you please be more specific for the newbies here; i.e. from what height should you drop it, what surface is more effective (concrete, damp grass, wood chips?), should you let it just drop from your hand or actually throw it, etc
Thanks.
to be certain of dropping it properly you should do it from at least a 5th floor window, tho 8th is reccomended.
i believe the best place to try to wake the phone from standby would be the empire state building. always works like a charm when i throw my phones, laptops and tv`s to wake up (others)
I dropped my phone from the 8th floor, but now it "crashed"
Interesting to see that you found a thread that has been dead for 6 weeks just to make fun of the issue i had.
My bet is that you searched yourself to this thread since you had the same "problem" as i did
all joking aside he actually had a good question. we all know the power button wakes up the phone, however i would like to know if there is a way to have the center d-pad button wake the phone up instead of or in addition to the power button.

I would like this or just a simple tap on the screen should wake it. I think there should also be a "screen lock" when it sleeps like the Iphone
i found then when your on a call and the screen turns off, you can wake it back up by press down on the scroll wheel.

I was thinking of mapping it to PTT, but center d-pad button would be even better and intuitive. Is there a way to do this mapping?
not sure, im sure anything is possible here at XDA. if it is possible im sure someone here can figure out how to do it.
Mapping PTT to "wake up" Fuze
Does any one know whether it is possible to map PTT (short press) to wake up fuze from standby. It's not all that convenient to reach the power button with one-hand operation.
Hello....is there any way of changing the action when the handsfree button is pressed or even long pressed & doublepressed
yes, same question. Extremely annoying how easy it is to accidently double tap the button and call the last person.
any suggestions anyone ??? maybe a registry edit or anything..... still waiting
The handsfree button has the same function as the call button typically.
double press -> redial (same as call button on phone)
long press ->
a) on some ROMs simply doesn't work. Guess it depends on driver version
b) if workiing, you can set the function in Buttons, gets same function as long press Button 1 (left phone button)
isnt there a cab or file cause its really annoying and would love to set it to next song or previous song
bump any one some one help its really annoying randomly calling someone
Not sure but;
Check in your registry in HKCU\Control Panel for your headset settings
Search for 'audio manager headset tool' on forums.
Try this cab

Topaz Keyboard Controller;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555821
What is it ?
It's a solution that allows you to remap ALL keys of your device.
Any key (yeah, i mean ANY, including Home and Back keys) can be reassigned to perform desired actions.
Have fun,
Senax
Thanks for replying ... I already have Topaz Keyboard Controller installed but it does not let you configure the (wired) handsfee button.. or if there is a way then pls help !!!
i am going for another head-set...
samsung has a usb-mini where the call button is less sensitive, plus you can change the headset via mini jack
donno yet if the samsung works on htc
but there should be other brands

thanks for the suggestion - see there is a hold button
Back button on the far left? Second from the right?
Power button on the top? On the side?
Softkeys or real buttons? On-screen (a la Honeycomb) or off-screen?
Do we need a search button at all?
A lot of sweat, blood, and saliva has been spilled over it. [citation needed]
Now it's *your* turn to join the fray!
If you were to design *the* perfect Android phone, what buttons would you give it? And where? And what would it be like?
Or maybe you don't even care about how the buttons are placed, as long as the manufacturers could just agree and they all make devices with similarly-placed buttons?
Me? I'd personally place the buttons sorted by their frequency of use, starting from the leftmost to the rightmost (from the most natural to the most awkward for my thumb to press). Back button - Home - Menu - Search, from left to right.
But I see how this would be an issue to left-handed people, so I'd settle for Back and Home button in the center, and Menu and Search flanking them. That's fair enough I think.
I would love to experiment with placing the back button on the top of the left side of the phone (indexable for right-handed people, and thumbable for left-handed), but I can see how this is not for everyone I'm not even sure I'd like it.
However, if manufacturers could just agree on the placement of the buttons, that would be good enough for me.
Whether it's hardware buttons or touchscreen buttons ain't an issue to me.
I'd place the power button top center (index-fingerable).
I find volume buttons useful only during calls, so I'd like to have them function as volume buttons only during calls. During idle/homescreen/any other scenario, they would become two (customizable!) shortcut buttons (a la Blackberry). <-- if only one thing from my dream phone is manifested, I hope it's this one. Two wasted (and often pressed by accident) buttons, turned into something more useful.
If I wanna be detailed about it, I guess the volume buttons should be on the center of the right side of the phone, so one of them can be customized as shutter/camera button (although I wont use it as such, preferring to tap the screen instead).
How's yours?
I think power button on top right side, lock button under, or like you mentioned having them function as volume buttons during call. Do completely away with search button, add in maybe a camera button where my search is, but make it where you have to hold it for a second so you do not enable it accidently. Have a designated capture button for the camera, that also functions as a silent/vibrate setting out of the camera.

Different people, different preference. Perhaps a default Home key, + 2 customizable keys where the user can choose their preferred key to be assigned.
I'd have the Search Key and Back Key always on the screen.
Menu key shouldn't even be on the phone. That should force app developer to design and create user interface with menu function incorporated in their app for consistency purpose.
I would love to have buttons on the back of the device
Now that I'm getting used to honeycomb (and apps developed for it), i can assure you that the search and menu buttons are not really necessary. i'd want a device with a back button on the left, the home button in the middle and a end call / power button on the right. that's it. oh i actually forgot a volume rocker at the usual spot at the side of the device.

Hmm.. No search button.. Interesting.
I find it useful to search things from the homescreen without having to open a particular app first (be it Market, Springpad, Contacts, Evernote, etc.), but I can surely live without it

Oh, you even made the pic!
Your opinion is interesting. I can easily see why the search button isn't really necessary, but the menu button? Substituted by long-press, I presume? (I never tried Honeycomb for any longer than 2 minutes )
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what ICS is gonna be like Keep it coming, guys! Let's crowdsource this!
Thanks to the moderator who moved my thread. I was hesitant on where to put my thread, but finally decided on the "General" forum, even though my OP contains questions, because I thought it was more of a "discussion" thread instead of a particular question trying to uncover a particular answer (which is what Q&A usually is)
Im a recent Blackberry convert and one thing I loved about it was the mute button (in the middle of the volume up and down on the bold 9900). Now that was great when Im always on conference calls for work and very easy to just hit that button to go on mute and hit it again to un-mute even with the screen locked.
Now I know the Skyrocket doesnt have one, and it sort of sucks to keep having to wake the phone to hit the mute softbutton, when you driving or doing other things you cant do it blindly.
So I was wondering since Im rooted, is there say any way to map out say the volume button that say if we hit both up and down at the same time it would initiate a mute for in call use and same again to un-mute it. That be nice to use without looking at the screen. I havent been able to find anyone who has done this or mapped out these buttons for other use.
