[Q] Is it possible to remap the headset button on HTC WinMo? - General Questions and Answers

I know this question has been asked before but I give it a new shot since no good answer has come up.
Is it possible to remap or just disable the short key press on a HTC headset button? As it is now, the music function starts when being pushed and I don't want that.
I've managed to take control over every other "hardware" button but this one is a mystery..
hugs

Need help to map keys...

has anyone tried to map the rest of the buttons? i really need it to work...
thanks...
I use AE Button Plus for mapping my keys.
http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
It lets you even map things to the red and green call buttons, as well as teh volume slider. Also, it can activate different things for a single, double, triple or long press events. Practically quadruples the number of buttons you've got. Very recommended.
but ae button plus only allows u to control green, red and volume buttons.... i need to tweak the up, down, left and right buttons...

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE!!! HELP!!!! :x
I also cannot understand why all key remapping software cannot remap all keys in the unit. This was not the case in a Treo. Could it be a hardware limitation?

Customize headset button

Hello everyone!
I personally use these m jays instead of the htc headset but as I understand it that doesnt really matter in this case.
When I press the button on my headset twice it calls the last contact I spoke with. After accidently pressing the button too many times I wish to disable this. While searching for information about this I only came across how to disable the action when you press the button once and hold it a little. Change the value of path in the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path
I'm assuming there is a key for pressing twice aswell but which is it?
Hi gaaah,
Thanks for the tip. Which value did you put?
Thanks.

Quickest way to reach camera

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.

How to configure the hansfree button

Hello....is there any way of changing the action when the handsfree button is pressed or even long pressed & doublepressed
yes, same question. Extremely annoying how easy it is to accidently double tap the button and call the last person.
any suggestions anyone ??? maybe a registry edit or anything..... still waiting
The handsfree button has the same function as the call button typically.
double press -> redial (same as call button on phone)
long press ->
a) on some ROMs simply doesn't work. Guess it depends on driver version
b) if workiing, you can set the function in Buttons, gets same function as long press Button 1 (left phone button)
isnt there a cab or file cause its really annoying and would love to set it to next song or previous song
bump any one some one help its really annoying randomly calling someone
Not sure but;
Check in your registry in HKCU\Control Panel for your headset settings
Search for 'audio manager headset tool' on forums.
Try this cab
Havent tested it my self yet

What is it ?
It's a solution that allows you to remap ALL keys of your device.
Any key (yeah, i mean ANY, including Home and Back keys) can be reassigned to perform desired actions.
Have fun,
Senax
Thanks for replying ... I already have Topaz Keyboard Controller installed but it does not let you configure the (wired) handsfee button.. or if there is a way then pls help !!!

activate only one button in the htc

HI all:I posted this into the Artemis position but looking forward that could be solved for any htc I post it here, hoping more people can have a look and help.
I received from a friend an arte100 with the power on/off button broken.
Meanwhile the owner doesn't want to spend money on the resoldering, is there any trick into the register in order to change the physical button that power on/off? It shouldn't be enough for me to install a program that power off, duethe problems of starting pressing any button when it is inside the pocket, in the bag....
Or in other way: you can block or no all buttons (typical posibility into the system label) but it is possible to lock all except one in order to be used as a power on button?
