To have access to the volume without using the side hardware button - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Just wondering whether there is a way to add a shortcut where i can increase or decrease the volume...The reson being is because i have a body protector for my Leo and pressing the buttons does not always work.
Is it feasible? if so could anyone direct me?
many thanks

Go to COMM MANAGER, you will see a speaker there. If the speaker is ON you're in trouble LOL, just turn it off whenever you need absolute silence . Best advice, while in school, turn off your phone and attend to class!
Strange... I'm using Gnat's 6.1 and when the keypad is locked (via holding the End Call button), the volume buttons take the phone out of standby but they don't alter the volume at all. The only key that does anything is the left soft key, aka the Unlock key when in locked mode. The volume buttons and the soft keys/home key/back key all turn the screen back on but don't function at all otherwise, until the phone is unlocked.
Are you using a different keypad lock program or something? Or are you also holding the End Call button to lock the keypad?
Mine alter the sound while the phone is locked - yes, it's bug.
I don't know how to fix that either, but I'm sure somebody on here does. Should be simple for somebody who is familiar with phone's registry.
OK . If anyone is working on it (registry fix) please post here results. By the way : in my school everyone have phones turned on, and silenced.

I don't understand what is your main issue. Is it MUTE the phone, then just turn off the sound. Edit your "silence" profile and make sure you have sounds turned off when you are in "Silence" mode. No mater where your side button points the volume to, Silence profile will determine if there will be sound or not. But you need to EDIT the profile and set it acordingly. The issue with the bottons, is something that will mostlikely be taken care of when a final WM6.1 comes out. For now, all there is are experimental test roms.
The same problem. It is still possible to adjust volume while keypad is locked
I'm still very confused by all this. I don't have this problem. I put the phone in Vibrate mode, lock my keypad, let the screen go black, then press the volume buttons. The screen comes on but the volume is unchanged, no matter how many times I press the buttons.
I understand , that the ringtones are silenced with other metods, but if I am using some kind of programs what are making noise, when in use ( for example some communicators) I know I can silence ringtones by Profiles , but I just want to find some solve for this problem, and not only me want this.

Volume buttons acting as scroll

After some time of running the device volume buttons are acting as scroll. This can be good.. but the TouchFlow volume window comes up and it is very annoying.
The only way to revert this "feature" is to power down (soft reset does not do nothing).
Has anybody else observed this "feature"?
I'm looking for a tweek to change function of volume buttons for scroll buttons - looking veeeeeeery hard !

I've found the problem: it was caused by SKScheMa (used it to lock touch screen on incoming call)

S2U2 and AE Button

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?

[Q] Anyone make a Volume remap or softkey program?

Using Froyo, the volume hard buttons on my Nook color are hardcoded to Back and Menu functions. I have looking for a way to add full-time volume softkeys OR find a way to make long presses on the volume buttons change the volume. Another option would be to have volume controls in the notification bar and keep the bar open all the time.
Button Savior has the ability to have full-time softkeys, but nothing for volume (that I know of).
Any ideas?
You could use ClutchPad for this. There's just one item on the screen, but you could set swipe up to be volume up and swipe down to be volume down.
Thank you. I got it to work, but it's a little slow and the up/down swipes are a little difficult to perform correctly. I don't know why it's slow to access the volume controls, but I think the swipe difficulty may be due to the Nook's screen edge sensitivity. Overall, though, I'm very happy to finally have a solution. Thanks again.

Hard press home button options

Anyone know if there's a way to make the home button only work with a hard press? I'm not referring to unlocking the phone or turning on the screen, I'm asking about when using the phone or an app and wanting to press the home key, I would like the ability to disable a simple tap and make it feel more like a button by utilizing the pressure sensor. Anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks in advance
Look in Settings, Screen, Navigation bar, Home button sensitivity.

Try this-
set/display/navigation bar/Home button sensitivity
Sensitivity can only do so much, I have it on minimum for purely comfort, because it's much more effortless to unlock your phone when the tap doesn't have to be so intense. And if I really am force-pressing on the button area at any force, I am trying to unlock the phone, so I don't really see a point in having to press it with a lot of effort.
But I've found out that the button is very largely hardware-based, since it works and vibrates even when changing themes, when things like system UI are not active, and normal nav buttons and status bar are gone. So I doubt that any sort of third-party development will be done for it without root access, since the hard press function seems to work as a real button press, and not a virtual press.
