There are a few keys on the front of the SDA that I want to remap.
On the front, there's a T-Mobile key and three media player keys.
On the right side, there's a camera key and on the left, a Comm Manager Key and a volume rocker.
Now, the fun part...
In the Windows folder in the root directory (WM5 if that matters), there are a few shortcut files. SHORT_xxx and LONG_xxx
Short is for a press, long is for a hold.
I've remapped the T-Mobile key to the Text messenger.
I've remapped the Comm Manager Key to my Program Manager...
...but here's the issue. Some keys are unmappable. For example, the Comm key, if held, opens the Voice Notes. I changed the shortcut to make it open the AIM client, but when I press it, the AIM client opens and then it quickly opens the Voice Notes program.
Is there another area of WM5, like the registry, that holds info like this? Or do I just have to deal with it?
would love to know more about this, as i have the same phone.
I also have a SDA, but with the Qtek 8300 ROM. When I had the SDA ROM, I could remap the buttons, but under the Qtek ROM (and the I-Mate ROM) the files (Short_AP1.lnk for instance) are unchangeable/undeletable. Can anyone help me remap these buttons?
Thought I might bump this up as I have been trying to figure out how to do it..
Personally im trying to remap a long press of the comm button to open task manager.
I have a Sprint Touch and it only has one hardware button that is customizable. I was hoping with HButton I would be able to map the Send and End key if I pressed and held these buttons to do different tasks.
Is this possible with this program? If not, is there a way to do it?
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..

Sorry about this. Will move it to the right thread now
Hi all,

Hi
I've had a good search through the forums, but couldn't find anything to do what I need.
I'm looking for a way to re-map the "Home" soft key on the TG01 to run an app (for example TaskFacade). I'm aware of AE Button Plus but that only seems to be for hardware buttons, and also I think $8 is a little steep for what it does. So is there another app that can remap the soft key? I'd settle for a registry hack, but I'd like one that doesn't go away after a soft reset.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
