I would like to disable the red and green phone buttons on a Windows mobile 5 device completely.
What I can achieve currently is the following (using AB button plus):
- Disable the red and green button for short clicks.
However holding down the red button still enables flight mode.
Ultimately I would like to be able to do the following:
- Disable the red and green button without using any third party software (I could write my own c# application to do this, any code suggestions?)
- Disable flight mode through the red button (I could write my own c# application to do this, any code suggestions?)
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've installed TomTom on my xdaII, but I've a lot of problem using it!To move up an down in menus I have to use volume slide, But it's very imprecise.
Then sometimes I should press red and green button, but they execute calls even if tom tom is on the screen!
Any idea on how to do?
thanks,
Alessio
Where in tomtom is the red/green button used?
they aren't in tomtom. Simply tomtom associates some functions to the hardware red or green button of xda (the ones at the bottom of the screen).

You say that in TomTom calls are associated to the red/green buttons?
In all programs calls are associated to the red/green buttons, it cannot be changed (well not easily).
It is supposed to be this way, the red and green buttons are to do with the phone - nothing else, Tom Tom wont and cant change that.
I know this.But when I use TomTom it runs in full screen mode.I have no way to inte face with the program by touch screen, is it normal?
In the bottom part of the screen there are some commands, one on the left and one on the right.I can't use touch screen, so I think the only way to execute that commands is to press red and green button that are below those command.Isn't it?
No, Tom Tom doesnt use the red/green buttons at all, they are to be clicked on.
You can turn off the full screen mode in the properties section of Tom Tom, but I must admit I use it in full screen mode, when a call comes in I answer it as normal (press the green button) and when finished press the red button. Then I just click the X in the phone app and Tom Tom comes back to the front again - and away I go.
Thankyou!Just an other question: when you are in full screen modo, how can you give commands to TomTom if touch screen doesn't work?

Hi guys,
My digitizer has died, and till the new one comes I was thinking of how I could use my T7272, I can write the SMS fine, but I can't send them out, cause the button is on the screen itself... is there a rom I could use freely w/o using the touchscreen?
P.S.
Is the digitizer hard to replace?
You could check out AE Button; it has some options like button presses that will activate soft buttons. I suspect you could send sms's using it. You could also try using mortscripts with AE button that will do stuff you need. There are some pretty simple scripts that will simulate screen taps, and you could assign them to a button push. I'd rather have a working touchscreen, though.
Here are some of the commands:
# 91: startmenu (on some devices it might be home button)
# 92: back key (not the backspace key but back key for closing applications which is available on some devices such as diamnd or blackstone)
# 93: menu key
#112: left softkey
#113: right softkey
#114: accept call (green button)
#115: hang up (red button)
#117: volume up
#118: volume down
#126: data disconnect
#127: toggle speaker
#133: devicelock
#223: power off
I use one to lock the device. Basically, you just put this:
Code:
sendspecial(133)
in a .txt file, and change the extension to .mscr. I call it Lock.mscr, and I have it assigned to a few different actions (like when a call comes in, a script locks the phone). So, sendspecial(112) and sendspecial(113) might help you out. There's also one for hitting 'Ok' in popups, which would probably work for you. I can't find it, though (google 'sendspecial' and you'll find it, it's all on msdn).
Anyway, if you install mortscript (maybe you already have it) as well as AE Button, you could assign button pushes to carry out those actions. Just stick the scripts somewhere easy, like the start menu, and it will be easy to set up.
If you want to get more complicated, there are also mortscript commands that simulate button pushes on the screen. You could set one up that would do just about anything. Also, SK Schema does similar stuff. You can write fairly simple sequences of button pushes that will do just about anything. This is one that I use that runs SK Tools Pim backup (I have it scheduled to run every night in the middle of the night).
#r(\windows\sktstart.exe) #p(STH:20)
#tap(146;602) #sleep(15000)
#tap(110;533) #sleep(500)
#tap(339;455) #sleep(500)
#tap(126;604) #sleep(500)
#tap(114;84) #sleep(500)
#tap(146;99) #sleep(5000)
#tap(310;254) #sleep(90000)
#tap(433;602) #sleep(10000)
#pwr() #sleep(10000)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Basically, the backup tool gets launched in line 1, then there are a bunch of screen taps (w/ delays, to make sure everything is ready) in the menus to get the right options selected, followed by turning the device off.
I`m not sure... But i saw somewhere app that emulate a mouse (cursor) and you will be able to control this mouse with your D-pad... But I can be wrong...
I can't install that mortscript w/o the touchscreen though..damn it..: )..
Get MyMobiler, and use it to run your device off of a pc. You should be able to get that working.
The free OmegaCentauri Gingerbread Keyboard, now in the Market, is a version of S. Lin's Gingerbread keyboard, with three additional features:
1. Night mode: You can switch the keyboard's theme to a night-vision friendly red mode. This is useful for non-rooted devices running astronomy apps (rooted devices can use ChainFire3D's night mode) and other nightmode-enabled apps. Your app may turn most of the screen red in its nightmode, but it won't turn the keyboard red, so your night vision may be damaged when you start typing something into a search box. But if you just switch this keyboard into red mode, this problem goes away.
2. All standard ASCII punctuation (less than, greater than, brackets, pipes, etc.) is available from the main keyboard screen, by holding down on the period or the comma.
3. The auto-suggest can be set to work in settings where normally the operating system turns it off (Settings | Show suggestions | except ...).
Hello people
New to android programming and I would like to create an app that runs when the power button is pressed (the phone will already be 'on' as such but the screen 'off')
so - one press of the power button to 'activate/show' the screen will make the app run (without requireing the user to unlock the screen please).
is this possible
how do I capture the 'power button press' event and then direct it to run *app xxx*
I thank you for your time in lookin at my question and I sincerely hope I can also one day help others (I have a fairly extensive history online of helping people with windows and hardware issues)
I have this bugging in my mind for a while now, I have turned off USB Debugging and Developer Options. But everytime I take a screenshot, the LED light goes Red, Green, Blue for awhile and then inform me about "Bug report captured"
The shortcut is Power + VolDown.
My device is Blackberry Priv SVT100-3 running Android 6.
Thank you!
