Hi team,
Hope someone can help me out with this...
I am looking for a application that will let me/us to use the touch screen as navigation button.
For example, if I draw a less than sign (<) then the phone will treat that as a "back" button.
The main reason is that the back, and home keys on my phone are broke. They are hardware broke and not functioning at all. I am looking for a alternative ways...
Any help is greatly appreciated!
What?

I've been searhing a week now, all the internet, all this forum, and i still can't believe nobody didn't need (or think) to wake the Diamond 2 with some other button then power button? I tried all that i found on this forum, like key remapper programs (they are really good programs and usi it), but they do not work when phone is in stand by. I'm using the phone also as navigator on motorcycle, so i have the phone in the transparent top pocket, and need to wake up the phone with front buttons. Is it inpossible? Before on omnia i had this possibility in control panel, but disapointed, that htc didn't make it? Hope someone has an idea how could be done this...or is it actually so simple, and i didn't figure it how? Please, someone help me, i like this phone a lot. I have the essential rom installed at the moment, if this help. Thanks.
have not tried it - but TD2 Tools has an 'Any Key WakeUp'-Option
changing HKCU\controlpanel\Keybd\DefaultKeyLock from 1 to 0
easy one!
Hi All.
Just got my DX last week. I am liking the DX, except for the bootloader issue and the back/home/menu/search "hard" keys. I really miss the "soft" keys on the D1. These feel a little awkward and I also worry that they will wear out or break over time.
I installed an app called "softkeys" that gives me a floating bar with on-screen back/home/menu/search buttons and I am pretty happy with that. I have also seen the soft key application that places the keys on the side of the screen and lets them slide in or out.
But I would love to find one that shifts the screen up to allow soft back/home/menu/search to always remain on the bottom of the screen and out of the way?
Is it possible? Anyone know of such an app?
Thanks,
Rob

Hi,
I'm on a Topaz with WinMo 6.5 Hebrew enabled but English interface.
Lately the number keys in the phone application are shifted one row down. I mean' when I press a number, the phone thinks I pressed the number one row below that. (i.e. If I press the place showing 5, an 8 will be dialed)
Oddly the "TALK" button and the "backspace" arrow button next to it do function normally, as does the whole screen in any other application.
My verbal explanation is not so clear, so please see the attachment. A screenshot with explanatory text.
Any idea what could have caused this? or how to fix it?
I was thinking about removing and re-installing the phone application, but don;t know how to do that, so any help in that direction would also be welcome.
Thanks!

What is the right forum for this question?
It really bothers me, so really want to solve it.
Hey all,
So I just recently bought the keyboard dock (a little late to the game I know ) and I was wondering if I could add some functionality to it.
First am I able to change what apps open with the function keys? Mainly I want to change the browser button so that it opens Chrome Beta instead of the stock browser.
Also can I add keyboard shortcuts in various apps? Specifically is there any way I can add cntrl+T or cntrl+F etc to Chrome Beta?
Finally, when I lock my screen using the lock function key I cannot turn the screen back on without reach up and clicking the button on the tablet. Is there a button on the keyboard that does this? Does it not work in ICS?
That's about all I can think of right now. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I don't know the answers on all your questions yet.
You can bring your tablet to life by swiping your finger over the touchpad, then press the home button to unlock.
Don't think there is a function to attach buttons to self-defined apps for now, anybody: correct me when i'm wrong.
See here for the browser button issue. As far as remapping other keys, that's dependent upon each application.
And if the TF101 w/ ICS is anything like the TF201, there should be a setting for dock power saving. If it's enabled, then the tablet won't wake up to key presses on the dock.

Thanks for this! I was wondering how to do this. I just recently gave out trying to figure it out since the key press is one inch away from my screen icon LOL. I have to say, Google needs to replace the stock browser with Chrome in future Android versions. What an improvement!!

Hi, i was wondering if you guys can help me remap my home touch buttons to work how they used to (on some devices). Ive tried to get used to how it is now but i just cant get comfortable. I checked another thread thats similar to what i want done but not quite exactly what i was looking for.
I use the back button, home button, and recent apps button. My goal is to long press the home button and have recent apps open and use the recent apps button as a general settings button (instead of having to long press the recent apps to get there). Im basically trying to acheive the LG Optimus G setup. Its a minor tweak and i'd enjoy the phone even more this way.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! If theres a thread that I missed that fits my needs plzz direct me to it! Thanks!
