In AE Buttons Pluss, is there a way to have the single press function preform the orginal thing its supposed to do?
Say I changed the left soft key's double press, triple press, and long press.. I want the single press to do what its originally supposed to do on the today screen or text menu program or anything its in.

1. Call default handler
I think thats what it is but I dont see how to choose that option, any ideas?
In AE Buttons Pluss, select "Left Softkey" for single press of Left Softkey.
hi!
i am looking for for 4days to learn how to change the programs assigned to hardware keys. but i can not find
i want to assign other programs to sp5m 's hardware keys.
it exists in the ROM platinium edition by nitrogenius as "ul tweaks" in "settings"
i am usuing WM 6.1 now and dont want to use the hardware keys to command windows media player.
haw can i change it?
no one can help???
First of all it's UI Tweaks (UI stands for User Interface) and not UL Tweaks!
To easily customize your hardware keys, use the appropriate shortcut files:
Short_AP1.lnk for Contacts button (sp5) or Internet button (sp5m)
Short_AP2.lnk for Messages button (sp5) or Previous button (sp5)
Short_AP3.lnk for Play button (sp5m only)
Short_AP4.lnk for Next button (sp5m only)
Long_Home.lnk for long press Home key
Long_VolDown.lnk for long press Volume Down key (VolUp not supported on WM6 - don't know if supported on WM6.1)
Short_Camera.lnk for short press Camera button
Long_Camera.lnk for long press Camera button
Long_POC.lnk for long press Communication Manager button
Just change those shortcut files (located in \Windows) to point to your desired applications.
Implementing a tweak such as my Hardware Keys in Control Panel is a real pain in the ass. It's a pain in the ass even when trying to describe it!!!
Not sure I got that..
****REMOVED DUE TO A SERIOUS MISPLACED POST****
Sorry about this. Will move it to the right thread now
Guys, this is what I have done with my button mappings and so far it seems to be working reasonably well. Well, reasonably enough that I am happy with it/can live with it.
Now I am very nit-picky and am coming from a heavily customized WisBar world. But in my quest to be stylus-free (and loving the WOW-factor of TF3D), I am able to live with the device by making the changes listed below.
-+-+-+-+-+
1. AEBPLUS - Volume Buttons
o Remapped volume buttons to provide Up/Down scrolling
o HOLD volume up or down - normal volume control
I did this because the TP was rejecting calls on its own whilst in my holster -- you know, the "press any volume button to mute the ringer" feature.
Note that if you do this, don't forget to look at the "Restore Volume Slider" option in AEBPlus (that guy thought of everything). I have all of mine unticked. Also take a look at: Options|Other Options|Control Volume Directly.

··········
2. AEBPLUS - Phone Key ("Green Phone Button" in AEBP)
o Press once = Phone Button
o Press twice = Task List (Swipe left shows Programs)
o Press three times = Action List <-Note the Cut/Copy/Paste here!
Screenshots:
Task List: http://auxiliary.razer7.com/tasklist.png
Task List - Swipe Left: http://auxiliary.razer7.com/programs.png
Action List: http://auxiliary.razer7.com/actionlist.png
ABOUT THE TASK LIST: The Task List (and Programs list) is all touchable. AEBPlus provides its own task list as well but it isn't as nice as the one that I am using nor is it fingerable. The one that I am using is a freeware program called "MortButtons".
Download MortButtons here:
http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=download&action=list&category=13
NOTE: Don't forget to also download the "ClickLED" skin on the same page. This skin closely matches the TF3D colour scheme.
During my testing, I've noted that MortButton uses about 250K (if you decide to leave it resident (recommended!)) and zero CPU since it is being called by AEBPlus.
ABOUT THE ACTION LIST: The "Action List" (as pictured above) is part of AEBPlus and can be custom-catered to your liking. I like to keep it simple and simply have cut, copy and paste in there, as well as toggle Wi-Fi (which works on the TP).
··········
3. AEBPLUS - End Call Button ("Red Phone Button" in AEBP)
o Press once = End Call
o Press twice = Last Task (ALT-Tab)
o Press thrice = Call DinarSoft TapText*
* "TapText" is a little utility that allows you to create a menu with clippings in it. I used it for email addy's and more. Check it out. I find it very useful and worth the ten bucks to register.

4. About the Home and OK Buttons...
Now these two buttons *can* be mapped using AEBPlus, however, they can't be *re-mapped*.
In other words, if you map something to these buttons, they will also perform their inherent functions (i.e. the Home button will always go home first; the OK button will always send an OK message to the system, etc.)
Personally, I have left these two alone.
-+-+-+-+-+
CLOSING COMMENTS:
Now there is MUCH MORE you can do with the above two apps in the configuration I've described. Customize it to your delight.
I hope that this post helps some of you guys out. I need to give back to this community!
This community R0X.
Thanks for sharing. Will try this out as soon as possible.
You're very welcome!
I was playing around with this setup earlier today and so far, it has been working really well.
Take care.
I have AEBPlus and it is working great. My home key is mapped to be the start menu on a single press and torch on a long press, the back button closes active applications on a single press. My soft keys are mapped to lock the device and contacts. Works perfectly for me.
I'd already re-mapped the volume buttons as you did, though for a different reason. I use MS Readern often, and find the circular direction button on the TP pretty useless - I try to press arrow down and get the centre keypress instead more often than not. The volume buttons are a perfect substitute.
On tip though - when mapping the volume buttons it works best if you map double click and triple click to none. Doing otherwise gives confusing results.
Excellent post Minus-1, AEBPlus is a program I'd been looking for since getting my touch pro and the Mortbuttons program is proving to be a very useful program itself. one q though on the button options list in AEBPlus which ones cover the touch pros 'home' button and '<-' button

Absolutely. I have only single click (directional up or down) and press-and-hold (volume control).
I often double-click the volume button to move up two elements, etc.
Excellent tip. Something definitely worth noting!
P.S. One quick note about the smartwheel: I used to HATE it but now I LOVE it. U have to get used to it and memorize the length of your stroke, etc. Once you do, tho, honestly, doing things become a breeze (especially whilst reading RSS).

Hiya, Yan2K!
I'm glad that you're enjoing AEBPlus and MortButtons.
In AEBP, the '<-' is mapped as the "OK Button" (which is precisely what that button means; some people like to call it the "back button" but it actually send a WM_OK message to the system).
As for the HOME button, you will have to map it...
In AEBPlus, go to the FILE|ADD BUTTON menu entry and press your HOME button. The TP will go back to the home screen but don't worry -- AEB is still running. Just click on your Quick Menu in the home screen (upper right corner of your task bar) and switch back to the AEB task.
Now remember: if you map these two buttons, they will NOT unmap their original functions... I generally leave these two buttons alone m'self.
Cheers!
thanks for the quick reply. I've created the 'home' button as you instructed, ended up with 'button #00ED' but cant get it to do anything either on 1-2-3 or long button press nor can i get the 'ok/<-' button to do anything either. prob doing something stupid can you help? ideally i want to be able to run a program on a long 'home' key press
Well mine is working, but not when TF3D is the active application. I remaped the (Long press) Home butoon to Second Today, and when I press it (long) it opens Second Today. Again, only when the TF3D is *not* the active program.
Hope that makes sence...
Cheers,
Cacti

Mapped the volume buttons as you did. Just what I was looking for. Also set 'back' to proper 'ok/close'.
Cheers.
I think,the original functions are hardcoded somewhere(dll or something else). We need to find the file and modify it to disable these functionalities.
I remapped the "green" button the following way:
1 press) Phone application
2 presses) Alt+Tab
However, now when there is an incoming call I can't use it to answer. Which is quite logical.
Is there a way around this?

played around with it and found purely by chance that just like you said you cant use the home button or '<-/ok' button to do anything when you've actually got the TF3D home screen showing. hopefully someone will come up with a workaround for this as although i can make use of the '<-/ok' button it pretty much makes the 'home' button redundant for anything else but its original purpose

Oh man, the OK button is one of the buttons I miss the most.
Specially while texting and such.
I hope I can remap some of the full keypad buttons as well.
I noticed that it sometimes doesnt' start up well, but oh well.
I re-maped the volume down to Ok/Close and Volume up to Start Menu
Then changed the volume settings to long hold, Which half the time when i press the buttons the volume comes up. haha.
hello!
I want to remap some buttons and I've tried with AE button Plus without success. Can you help me?
What I have is the call button configured for a long press to cyberon voice dial.
The disconnect button long press is for vibrate / ring.
what I want is to turn home and back buttons long press to wifi and bluetooth on/off and.
is it possible?
can I do this without AE button +? like a registry change? would be even better... or another program suggestion is also a good help!
Please help!
deiota
Is it able to remap the PTT button? That would be AWESOME.
dumb question, but where can I download AEB Plus?
I can't find a direct link or site to get the program!
Thanks...
http://ae.inc.ru or ask directly the author AE(here on XDA-Alexander Eltsyn).
So, is there any way to change the mapping on my keyboard? Like the hot button keys really get in my way, and I'd rather have a TAB key than a CAPS key, and stuff. So is this possible yet?
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.
Does anyone else have problems mapping the center D pad button of the touch pro using AEB Plus? I can map it ok for the double, triple and long press, but when I map it to anything, the single press (mapped to press "enter" or call default handler) doesn't work anymore... It seems to disable the main function of the center button (enter). It's a pretty important function to press enter so currently I can't map any other functions to the button, because the main one then becomes disabled... What am I doing wrong here? Reading some other posts on this tread, it seems like others were able to map this button successfully and still use the "enter" function. A specific sequence maybe? I've tried this with a couple different ROMS including the stock SPRINT ROM and I get the same results. Can anyone help? I should point out that I have a fully registered version, and I've been able to map the green and red buttons successfully.
I have it as following:
Handle by AEBPlus
Single press: Press Enter(third option)
Double press: Select all
Long press: Display off
That are all builtin features of AEBPlus,so no exe commands or applications.
And it works good.
that's what I mapped the single press to... I mapped double press to ok/close, triple press to close active application, and long press to psshutxp... when i do this, every press works except the single press! furthermore, it also disables the enter key on the slide out keyboard... I have the lastest build (2.6.5). Can anyone help? This is driving me crazy!!! I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling. For some reason when I reinstall, it seems to remember my previous settings...and course, it behaves the same way...
