i am using LG ks20 and when it's under sun light, i can see nothing.
i've tried spb pocket plus and reassign the button for adjusting backlight, but it doesn't work.
is there any software that can reassign the volume up and down hardware button to backlight up and down for my ks20?? or simply assign one button for loop backlight??

You could try to use HButton. It isn't a bad program and it might just do what you need. Good luck!
i've installed it, but i can't find any option for adjusting backlight...
You have to get the command line from somewhere and assign it to the action (I think). Unfortunately, I don't know what this line is...
but even i get the command line, i dont know where to input it.
btw, thanks for your help.

Ofcourse I can lock the screen by pressing the power button (and having de XDA go standby), but I wish to lock the screen while listening to mp3's.... How can I lock the screen ? If I need a separate application, please let me know your suggestions ....

If you meant that you wanted to switch off the screen without putting the XDA on standby, here's how. Just assign one of the buttons to "Screen Toggle" when Windows Media Player is running. On the Windows Media Player menu, select Tools->Settings->Buttons. Then map one of the buttons, such as Button 2 (Contacts), to "Screen Toggle". After that, pressing the mapped button will switch the screen on and off.

I tried this 3 times and each time when I press the button (I assigned button 3- the camera button) I got a strange black and white flashing strobe on the screen which I couldnt get out of without a soft reset. Anyone else had this or knows how to deal with it?

Dunno how to deal with it but I can confirm that I have exactly the same issue. Screen Toggling does not work and ends up in a flash show that doesn't look very healthy for the display.
works fine on xda 1 running ppc2003 :\ any programs to make the screen do this automatically? say if i was to run tomtom gps?

Work's fine with my XDA2, no problems at all, I assigned button 2 to the screen.
no problem doing it for me with xda with 2002 rom 3.1804
Also works fine on my XDA II. have you tried using the Calenda/Contacts buttons to toggle the screen instead of the camera button? Just a thought.
try this nifty lil program i found on emule works great on pc2002/2003 i have jog button installed to my calendar button just press the button and the screens off press power button to turn back on very simple or hold my calendar button down and the calendar coems up
just transfer to your xda/pda and click it to turn screen off or toggle it to one of your buttons

Found a prog cald jogbutton here http://www.yorch.net/downloads/JogButtonSetup.zip, but this doesn't seem to work on Pocket PC PE 2003.
job button works fine on ppc2003 i have it on my xda :\ just assign calendar or contacts to job button then load up jog button click on setup then apply it to the progs you want it to open.
prob i found with pc2002 with screen off is it doesnt come back on with the power button lol so here is screen on for peeps with pc2003 no need to install this if on pc2003 as it works fine on it
use button plus v2.0 from yorches site i find it better then jog button as it allows double tap buttons and doesnt go crazy when turniong screen off on tomtom 2 lol

I'm not withyou on this jog button thing bro. Can you talk us thru it again from the start. I have this program installed and cant get it to do anything. Much thanx...
install jog button then.....
assign either contacts or the calendar button to the shortcut in th startmenu so it starts up jog button.
then hold the button down you assigned it too....
you will see setup appear i nthe bottom left hand corner with the button still held in click on setup using the stylus then assign programs from within that menu its very simple to do :roll:
anyway found a better program its called button plus v2.0 download it from yorches site in the software section works much nicer
Hi,
I appreciate these two programs,
but I can not activate the volume control in S2U2 and change the function of the volume least in AE Button, it does not work anymore
I have a problem to remap volume button with AE button
Do you have a solution?
Thank you
HTC Touch diamond
Work around
This isn't a very good work around, but I've found that if you open the S2U2 settings and tell it not to use the volume control and not to use the keyboard hook. Then save your changes. AE Button will work for a little while.
When it stops working again, just open S2U2 settings and save.
I haven't noticed what it is that breaks it, but it is extremely annoying to have to keep fixing it all day long.
Anyone out there have some insight onto what is going on so that we can create a better work around or fix?
Alternatively, does anyone know of any other keyboard remapping programs that might be compatible with S2U2?
I've used this program for years but I'm having trouble getting it to work on my FUZE.
I searched the forums and found a few threads where people recommend it and said it worked great on their phone. I also read that the home and ok button's can't be re-mapped (well... they can... but it's bot practical).
So, I'm trying to re-map the send and hang up keys. I assumed the keys are the green and red phone keys listed within AE Button Plus. I edited those to do what I wanted and soft reset the device. Problem is, neither of the buttons do anything I told AE Button Plus to do. A long hold of the green phone button starts Voice Command. A long hold of the red phone button opens the "Long Press Red Key" application. I'm using NATF's 2.2 ROM (if that makes a difference).
I thought that maybe the FUZE has it's own button codes so I tried adding buttons. But clicking on the red or green phone button while the add a button window is popped up doesn't work.
How do those of you with your FUZE have AE Button Plus working with the phone hardware buttons? What am I doing wrong?
I have mapped the Green button with AEBPlus and it is working fine. For this button you don't need to use Add button function and I think,the Red button can be mapped same way.

You're right. I did some more testing and single, double, and triple presses work fine. The problem is, I can't re-map the long press'. Is it possible?

Try again to add the buttons, but this time hold the call and end buttons longer. It will only let u remap the long press. However it will also remap the PTT button. This is a problem for me. I have found a way to kinda cheat this though. I created the PTT_Long.lnk file in the windows directory. (You can find the directions somewhere here in the Rafael forums) Now my short press = camera and I can program the long press etc. And I can use AEBPlus to remap everything else.. Good luck..Hopefully AEBPlus will update their software to work with the Rafael...

It's still not working for me
If I press the green button too long it opens up a new windows with things like "Turn Airplane Mode on" and a few others being shown.
If I press the red button too long it starts Voice Command. If I press it any shorter then that it doesn't register as a new code within AE Button Plus.
I'm not sure what you did to get it working on your end... but I can't re-map the long press' of those buttons on my phone.
Maybe I need to disable the default long press commands via the registry?
remap soft keys on HOME screen of TF3D
I am using PI8 (pocket informant) as my contacts and calendar. I would like to remap the 2 soft keys that are currently going to "windows" version of calendar and contacts, to instead go to PI8 version of calendar and contacts.

Use advanced config and you can set them that way. You have to soft reset aftewards...

There is a new version of AEBPlus out, however it still doesn't get along with the Fuze very well. I Finally uninstalled it and am happy with short/long press only on the PTT. I also run GScroll and use it to double touch the capacitive screen to launch stuff...much better...
home soft keys for PI8
please explain where in Advanced config do I go to change a setting for the 2 soft keys for the home screen. I can't find anything. I found it in Diamond tweaks under 14.5 but it does not give me an option to select PI8.
The long keypress for Green button can be solved by standart button settings as a "Button1(Hold)". I have mapped for a longpress the phone interface that way(1click I use as Alt+Tab). I don't know about red button,because I use red button to instantly drop the call and this feature is missing in my version of AEBPlus and I don't need to upgrade.
Hi all,
Been looking around for a way to change my volume buttons so that i can use it to scroll up and down (using goodlink and everytime i click on a item it goes into that item and not do a show preview on the preview panel)
Does anyone know of a bit of kit that would do this job? Have looked at "advanced config" but cant seem to find a way to change/map the volume buttons to make them scroll up and down a list.
Thanks
Sorry all...looks like i answered myy own question. Finally found the below to sort out what i need and it works with the topaz!.
Sorry for the same and FYI the thread is below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409243&highlight=remap+volume
"What works for me is AEButton Plus (payware, no affiliation). I have reconfigured my volume buttons to single press = arrow up/down and long press to volume. The program has a nice function: you can choose to let the volume buttons have their default behavior during a phonecall.."
Fine, thank u. And it works on your Touch Diamond 2 Topaz?
yep works a treat on my Diamond 2 topaz
...i do have netcf 3.5 installed before i installed AE buttons aswell for other programs (not sure if that will matter for AE buttons)
im not really getting along with it.
cant see the optino for changing what the volume keys do etc.
Also, would it be possible to set a longer hold of the End Key that would launch the camera application and be used as shutter button?
Thanks
Hmm, interesting thoughts! Especially if the remap is done automatically, and only when the camera is launched.

PK

I believe this issue with scrolling will be resolved with WM6.5 when you can slide the bar up/down to do a selection. In the meantime I use a simple method to scroll/select - say a SMS message. I open the abc phone pad (icon at bottom of screen) and then use the up/down keys (at the bottom) to scroll.
AE Button Plus
Just to confirm.. AE Button Plus DOES allow you to remap the volume buttons to up/down arrows. Just installed it on mine (Touch Diamond 2) and it works perfect.
The setting-up routine isn't obvious though.
When you see your list of keys in AEBP, pres and HOLD on the "Volume up" item. Takes a few seconds for the config menu to pop up.
I then used the following options from the config screen:-
3. Handle by AEBPlus
1. Single Press
5. Press Up arrow key
Then do the same for the Volume Down key, obviously changing the last option to 6. Press Down arrow key.
Then File/Save & Exit, and off you go.

This program can assign any of the hardware buttons to do what you want...
I've set the back button Launch the 'camera' app if it is held for a while and to act as the capture button when taking a picture. It also acts like a normal 'back' button when in other apps such as file explorer,opera, etc.

This program is much better than AEB.
I am a Touch Pro which does not have a PTT button.
Any suggestions on how to reach the camera quickly? What is your quickest way to get to the camera?
remap the center button on your phone to start up camera
mobileSCR Gscroll, map the capacitive area of the screen(where the buttons are), really useful(can choose any sequence of taps to do anything, open application)
or AEButton... what' the use of a volume rocker? just use one button to get to the volume page and use the touch screen to change the setting...(one problem would be changing vol on the fly like during a phone call... that case, change the setting, one-button press = default volume behavior, two-button press = whanever you want, three -button, long press, whatever you want

Thanks! I will try to do this but I cannot find the built in remap ap on NRGs rom, still looking for it :-D
@paperWastage: Thanks for the tip! If I cannot find the built in software I will install AE buttons.
you cant remap the center button. i think he was being pedantic. maybe you can set a button to be voice command and say "start camera".
I just have the camera in the programs... Slide over to programs and press camera...

actually... i was serious. There is a fuze keyboard config software floating somewhere in the raphael forums. It might be able to let you remap the centerbutton.
but why would you want to remap your center button.

I have to agree as this is a very important function.
Mayne a Long press center button maybe more appropriate.
I cant seem to find any remap built in software on the NRG rom. My Touch dual had one which allowed me to remap some basic buttons like volume button.
Looks like AEbuttons is the answer for me. Will try to test it first and update you guys.
If you go to Setting and on the Personal Tab there is a Buttons setting and you can change the receive call button (press and hold of course) to whatever you want, including the camera.
Also a good idea to go over to the Systems tab and change the Long Press End Key Setting to Lock Device or something else than Turn Airplane mode on/off, god that sound is annoying when Airplane mode is turned on
it depends on the rom or software if you have the unlocked all buttons. honestly theres no faster way to get there than start > camera or photos tab > camera. if you dont have an american phone with a ppt button, there wont really be a faster way.
i actually did not mean to map the single click. I thought it was obvious i meant the long press.
using softkey manager you can replace one of the softkeys on the homescreen, as ur using an NRG rom im guessing your two softkeys on the home tab are "action" and "contacts"? ive got rid of the contacts, because a. i could jus use the people tab, or b. jus press the call button to bring up the dialer... and have replaced it with camera
the softkey manager should be under utililites/tweaks... it is on mine and im using an NRG rom
hope this helps.
