Hello people here.
I want to use the home/back buttons for different purposes,that they are designed for. I am using AEBPlus software. With this software I am able to map much more functions on these buttons,but the problem is,these buttons are doing designed functions(home/back) also after mapping even they are unbinded from the system and handled by AEBPlus,so one click means 1click function and home/back at the same time. Anybody knows,how to disable default functionalities?
Thanks for help.
I have AE Buttons to ramap PTT with a long press to activate voice command. I use a 1 press to bring down the Start menu. But it also remaps the "Home" key to do the same. They seem to be locked together. Any thoughts. The descriptions of the buttons in AE doesn't do them justice. Can't tell what is what.
my PTT and Home button are mapped as the same for some reason.
when i use AEBPlus, i can do 1-3 clicks on the PTT, but i cant do the PTT Hold for some reason. any ideas?
Do you guys have any idea on How to change the Home button to start menu?
I use AE BUtton Plus.. works great.. you will have to "add" home adn back buttons to be able to program them

Isn't there a free program? I mean isn't this a simple tweak. Also, what do you mean by add a home and back buttons?
AEBPlus is a program,which can handle all keydown events sent from keyboard driver to the OS and modify/use them to control other things with ANY key. If your key isn't in predefined list,it can detect the keycode and you can remap it. Perhaps,unfortunately the home and back keys(and the qwerty as well I think) are sending direct WM messages to going home or Ok/Close and nowadays we cannot disable these functions at all to be sent to OS,even tough we can handle them and use with other functions. That means,you can map on these buttons anything with AEBPlus,but you cannot get rid of their default functions(overall it does 2 actions at once - going home and AEBPlus action mapped).

How do I add the home and back buttons?
every time I add a button then click on home, it minimize down AEBPlus
Don't worry about it. Click on "Task Manager" (top right corner) you will see AE button there; select to open it. Button #00ED and #405C are "Home" and "Back"
AE button doesn't work well on RRE's ROM. I don't know if it works as it should on the other ROM or not.

Aha, now that's interesting! #00ED is the button that is added for the PTT button on the Fuze, as well. No wonder that adding an action in AEBP for the PTT button does the same thing when the Home button is pushed!

Yes, I agree! It is really weird... I did the hack to add PTT_LongPress.lnk to the windows folder and made the PTT longpress goto my commanager. This will overide when AEB tries to change longpress on the call & PTT. You cannot change the short press of the call button, at least I don't know how. So in theory my longpress of the call button now is voicecommand & my longpress on ptt is commanager.
I used AEB to program single/double/triple press of the PTT button also.
Sometimes when i hit the Home or call button though the camera comes up which is assigned to single press.
AEBPlus needs to update their program for the Diamond and TouchPro before I will register it..Someday
Does anyone know how I can get one of my hardware buttons to popup my input panel?
I tried setting it to the PTT button but it doesn't seem to work...
The touchscreen on my TouchPro just died on me, so I had to set "Windows Default" as my homescreen, which works okey as my hardkeys are working alright. However, I'm unable to send SMS messages etc. as I can't use the softkeys anymore.
Is it possible to assing the left and right softkeys to my hardkeys instead?
Thanks for your time
Check out AE Button, although it doesn't work so well on the d-pad buttons, because they suck (especially on older devices). The vol buttons are assignable, as are the keyboard ones.
Thanks alot for the suggestion! I managed to remap the softkeys to my volume keys, finaly being able to respons/send text messages again
In case anyone else needs the program, the authors site's at http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
is this possible with android? in windows one way to do this is an application that intercepts signals from the keyboard and sends out what the user remapped the key to. i have no idea if the mapping for the keyboard is done in the firmware or something. i know physical buttons being remappable in custom roms, would this be the same case?
what i would like is to remap the search key into the multitasking button (recent apps)
