I've tried googling all sorts of terms but I still can't fix my problem.
I run Pocketmind PocketMusic as my preferred music player. When I try to go to key mappings, and set one of the hardware keys to turn screen display off, it does the function that's set in the Windows Mobile Buttons panel, which is to go to my Today screen instead of the player commands. Setting that button in the Buttons control panel to <Nothing> doesn't solve this problem . I'm running WM6.
The same key binding worked fine on Conduits PocketPlayer, so I suspect there is another application that is conflicting with it. Any advice would be much appreciated!
heh, Surprisingly I have the exact same issue and it just happened recently for no apparent reason... but regardless I think I have found a resolution, I was running S2U2 and XCPU and I ran iLock from S2U2 and then I did the key lock for XCPU and now it works for some unknown reason.... obscure isnt it?
P.S: Hope it works for you too! If not just remove anything that could affect key locking.

I think the title tells you what I'm looking for. I'm trying to get rid off HTC Home since it uses too much space on the today screen. There is nothing in there that I really use that my other programs don't cover except the backlight.
I like the idea of simply pressing on the icon and the intensity changes. Up to now I haven't found any program that does that in this way for HTC devices. Even better would be a program that could be assigned to a hardware button since I have enough of them =D
Does anyone know a programm that cycles the backlight intensity by pressing a hardware button?
try spb pocketplus
Hi all! Just a question, can I assign the device lock function found in the today screen to a hardware button? I'm referring to the device lock function that comes with the default windows mobile which we can choose to make it appear at the today screen. It's one of the plugin in the today screen.
i remember using this app called ae button plus. check out this link:
http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
the app essentially expands the coverage and functionality of the hardware buttons. if you'll go through the list of functions, it can lock your device but it's only for wm5. i haven't tried this with wm6...though i'm not sure if an updated version has been released. i used this before when my athena was still in its original wm5 rom. but after upgrading to wm6.5, never found the use for it. secondly, didn't really use the app given that my athena, when closed, had the keyboard protecting the screen from accidental touches.
you could also try hbutton:
http://hbutton.dyndns.org/
haven't used it myself but i do know it can assign auto-screen rotation. not sure if the drop-down menu (when installed) will have screen lock on it. but essentially it works like ae button plus. and the 2 best parts of it: it works on wm6 and is freeware =)
hope that helps
Thanks! I will check it out.
I've got a problem configuring iGO8 to use the hardware keys, such as the volume up, volume down, and back key. I know the keycodes for these keys, but when I edit the keybind section in iGO it won't respond to any hardware key input. Did anybody get this to work on his Topaz? If so, how?
I'm using iGO 8.3.2.96054. These are my edits to the keybind so far:
x75="VOLUMEUP"
x76="VOLUMEDOWN"
x875="PREVSCREEN"
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Zoom in zoom out hardkeys really needs
The topic has disappeared onto the 4th page by now, so I thought I might bump it. Can anybody please help me on this? I have done more internet research now, but I still have no answer.
i think its waste of time cause when newer version of igo come out it will support topaz buttons by default.

In order to have working volume keys BEFORE starting igo you HAVE To change screen keyboard from HTC to default Windows one. HTC Keyboard is hooking to volume up/down key presses and iGo doesn't see their state.
How would I do that? I searched in the settings for an option, but I can't find a setting to change back to the standard windows keyboard. I have found a setting allowing me to choose between touch input and a keyboard, but the latter seems to be a hardware keyboard option as is sets itself back. The touch input option is selected by default, it's the default HTC setting.

I want to share what i discovered with this subject and help people to finally use their HD2 as it was suppose to be from the beginning. You are probable all very annoyed by the fact that it is not possible to adjust volume in any video player using volume keys and not to break video playback, especially in full screen mode.
Well, that's history. I found that VolumeX ( http://volumex.jdbp.mobi/default.htm ) can do just that. You can adjust volume in any video player with volume keys without pause/stop/break video playback even in full screen mode...
To activate this ability you have to, of course, install VolumeX and after that you have to alter one registry entry.
Go to HKLM\Software\JDB Pocketware\Volumex\EXCEPS
and there you can add app that would be able to use this ability of VolumeX (you must add class name of the application, it can be found with dotfred's TaskManager on window tab; http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm).
Here is what i add in exception list:
1|HTCYOUTUBE;1|FMRadioMain;1|WMP for Mobile Devices;1|MunichWinClass;1|PlayerFullScreenWindowClass;1|AudioBoosterClass;1|wCorePlayer;1|PocketMusic;1|MYFSPLAYER;1|FspVideoDispWnd
Thankx JDB for this app...
I'm trying volumex, and your tip seems to work great. I actually don't understand why this is not standard (and the whole of Volumex idea)...
Thanks.
Working well, but now I can't get the "volume screen" when I press volume buttons even outside the exception programs. Any idea?
Here are my exceptions:
1|wCorePlayer;1;1|PocketPlayer;1|PocketMusic;1|HTCYOUTUBE;1|FMRadioMain;1|WMP for Mobile Devices;1|MunichWinClass;1|PlayerFullScreenWindowClass;1|AudioBoosterClass;1|FspVideoDispWnd
Thanks
BTW, I'm using and HD2 with Miri's 6.5.x v16 ROM
Solved by JDB, thanks.
I have a problem with Coreplayer and my HD2.
I have made three hotkeys in Coreplayer. Volume up (F6 play fullscreen), volume down (F7 Move forward) and telephone button (F3 Open files). Everything works perfect running Coreplayer. But when I close Coreplayer non of the three buttons work in Windows anymore. Volume doesn't respond to the volume button and the same with the phone button. I have to restart my HD2 to get the buttons to work again.
Anyone who have a solution to my problem?
not sure if it'll work for you:
in Coreplayer go to Tools/Settings/Advanced,
enable "Capture all buttons (like games)",
restart the phone and try then
Perfect! This seem to have solved my problem. Thank you so much!

Fantastic, I've been trying to get this to work for ages!!! Went though all the settings, but couldn't figure out what to do..... some phrase with "Wood for Trees" springs to mind!!
And here I am using LMT control panel from this site (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629263)
