Hello,
I have imate 8150 and there is no option in windows to unlock keyboard (on HTC KAISER there is option) and I can wake up phone only on POWER button.
Is there any registry hack in WM6 to unlock keyboard that I can wake up phone with other buttons (on example, when I want to make a call, I would like just start write number.... not first wake up with power button)
thank you very much
in wm6 under settings buttons lock
i can set if only the powerbutton or all buttons wake up the device
I know that, I got kaiser until yesterday, but on my IMATE there is no this tab (under button options).
Maybe is some registry hack (or where to enable this option in registry),
maybe you know??
thx
anybody??
thx

To lock the keys on the treo 750 you hold the option key then press the red hangup/power button. option+power that is.
Does anyone know how to bind a key so that this will work?
For instance... I currently am using AE Buttons on my treo and want to map the red power button to lock the keys if I press and hold it.
help!
Why wouldn't you just set the keyguard to always lock when power is switched off?
Then it requires no keypresses to lock the device, it always wakes up locked.
Settings-Keyguard-"When power is turned off".
One of my favorite Treo features.
ahh sweet, didnt know that option was there.. thanks
On my previous device, an HP Ipaq 6915 with WM5 I always used the option "Disable all buttons except power button" to prevent my phone did things in my pocket I didn't want.
On my brandnew device, an HP Ipaq 914C with WM6.1 I have this same option BUT it is extended with the words "and end". So the new option is: "Disable all buttons except power and end button".
My problem is, I don't want the "end" button to be able to wake up my device.
Is there anyone who knows how to achieve this?
I am aware of the "keyguard funtion that helps me to guard all kind off keys being pressed. This was also on the WM5 and WM6.1 available. But this still doesn't disable the "end button" to wake up my phone. By the way, the end button is the red phone button.
Options on WM5 and WM6.1 reachable via Start --> Settings --> Buttons --> TAB Lock.
Thanks in advance for any help!
No one knows???
Come on! Is this something no one knows! seems like a tweak that should be done very easilly... but I cannot! Please help me...
When my HTC pro is locked the both volume buttons still work.
Is there a way to disable these 2 buttons when my phone is locked, the should only work if the HTC pro is not locked!
How can I change this?
good question. I would like to know as well...
a friend of mine told me, htat the diamond has got the buttons locked in locked mode, too.
2 of my working partners have both a touch diamond and they both confirmed that the button keys are turned off when the phone is locked.
you guys should check out the sensor lock app, it's free and by a peep on here, it's pretty good
this app is quite cool (sensorlock), but we just want a simple lock of the volume buttons when the device is locked by the default procedure.
sensorlock does not what i want.
I just want the default lock in wm to lock the volume keys.
So if I press the "end call" and hold it down the phone locks, it should also lock the volume keys, the on/off button should NOT be locked!
More function I do not need for locking.
It would be OK if a app does the same with a software/sensor lock function, but important is that it is enabled by long press of end call button.
Sorry no answer to your question but I agree: the fact that the volume buttons are not locked is really annoying!
volume buttons not locked
They are locked on my original Dutch T-Mobile Rom.
(and yes, I've checked that)
On my vodafone rom not, I am now runnin romeos and on this rom there are also not locked.
Note: we are speaking here about the default lock of the OS, NOT the sensorlock! So holding down the "end all button" for approx 2 seconds. The phone now locks itself and display is dimped, now all keys execpt the on/off and volume keys are locked. What I want is that volume keys are also locked.
It is possible to lock the volume keys using apps such as sensorlock, but this lock does not work with the end call button, you must rotate the phone of use the stylus to (un)lock it.
tis true. when locked, volume buttons work. when display is off, they do not
3 Australia Rom also comes with this problem. It would be interesting to know how they fixed it in the T Mobile Dutch rom.

Not really, it does not what I ask
I just want: lock using hold own end key, all keys (including volume) are OFF.
This tool does not do this, if I set is using wm in lock modus the volume keys still work, all other options are not for me...
It is great that people suggest which tools to use for locking but please only suggest a tool which locks does exactly as I ask.
If anyone Finds an answer to this I would love to know as well!
yeah kinda of a big problem. I lock the phone. Put it on vibrate or silent and put it in my pocket. because of the location of the keys, it sometimes increases the volume. Quite annoying since use an mp3player where i go, i don't hear my phone (thats why i prefer to use only vibrate).
Turning the display off is a workaround that helps a bit.. but that button also works when locked (not weird ofcourse)
Nevermind, I've found the best way to get past this is after locking the phone (by holding the end call key) if you press the power key and release it puts it into "Sleep Mode" and turns off the screen. After this the volume keys cannot be used unless you press and release the power button to wake it up.
Seems to cure my problem.
any person can help me how enable volume buttons when device is locked ?
rom: ROMeOS ver.1.70.3
Hi all,
So I broke the power button on my Titan (dropped it, now the action moves but doesn't do anything) and I'm wondering if I can remap it to, say, the comm-manager button.
As it is now, I've had to disable sleeping which completely hoses my battery life.
Any help?
edit: Now with clear title.
you mean you want to map another button to be the power button?
if so use ShutXP and HButton.
ShutXP lets you shut your phone off and reset it.
HButton lets you map applications to different hardware buttons...

I think you misunderstood. Normal function of my power button is to standby (you can still receive phone calls while in standby), press it again to wake up. I don't care at all about restart/shutdown functionality, only standby and waking up from standby.
I tried AEBPlus to put the phone in standby but then I cannot wake it back up! I imagine I need something lower-level to make another button cause the device to wakeup from standby.
edit: OK, so really what I want is to assign a single button that will wake the device up from standby. This has been discussed

there's an app in WM called Display Switch. if you used HButton you could map it to a hardware button...
it's /windows/shutdown.exe
the lnk file should contain the following code:
Code:
54#"\Windows\Shutdown.exe"
2?\Windows\Shutdown.exe,-10000
incase you don't find the exe in your windows dir let me know and i'll post it

Thanks for the help, but I find that, on standby, all my buttons are disabled except the (non-functional) power button. Hardly helps to map the wakeup to a button that is disabled!
EDIT: Settings->System->Keylock-->Do not lock keys.
Now All I need is a hack that will add a "Lock all but comm-manager" to that dialog, instead of "Lock all but power"!!!
lol. sometimes.. i think one step further and it doesn't do well to the solution..
forgot that all hw buttons are disabled.
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
Havent tested it my self yet

Topaz Keyboard Controller;

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 !!!
