I have two questions....
1) I have assigned my camera and recorder button...but every time I reset or change batter the camera buttom resorts to the default (camera)
2) I am looking for a way to assign the volume modes (on/off/vibrate) to a button....has anyone sorted out a way to do this....it would also be great if there were a way to assing flight mode to a button also...i have having to pull out the stlyus for these common activities....I have tried pocket zen phone but I still need my stylus to select the profile (maybe my fingers are too big).
Hi,
for question 2 here in the forum you can find restart radio, a program that allows you to put in the program folder, and then assign a button for switching on/off the flight mode.
bye
Thanks...I found the post but can seem to locate the actual program.

hi guys , i know this might seem a strange question but like most my stylus is loose in the holder and i sometimes need to use the keyboard to do most things on the unit and i cant find anywhere that activates the start option on the screen. I have done it by accident once but nothing since. i have checked the manual and it mentions it no where all operations seem to be around the stylus?
does anyone know what key combination it is ?
I have a 02 phone and unlike tmobile which has a one of the 4 buttons on front setup to do this as one of the defaults.
cheers in advance
It should be ctrl+escape on a full keyboard. It might also be enabled by the windows or context menu keys, not sure what your keyboard looks like.
You can use my VJKeypress to get this as well. I think it's keycode 91, not sure, check my website.

Why not assign one of the hardware buttons to do this, each one can have a duel function assigned either a tap or hold, according to the phone, in reality this doesn't work (unless anyone knows different - latest O2 ROM - not messed around with), whatever you set for a tap is also carried accross to the hold function, go to settings and locate the power buttons icon select it, then select the button you want (ok for example) then assign the <Start Menu> from the drop down box, press OK, the device might want a soft reset (mine did when I just tried this), when it comes back up hit the assigned button, and use the four way thumb control to navigate through the menus, it saves sliding out the keyboard and it becoming loose - Mike
cheers for this when i tried to reassign buttons before like the camera it wouldnt let me change them ..i hate the camera button getting accidently caught same as the record one as well.
cheers for the advance will do that would just like to know for my own peace of mind as well how to use the keyboard to do it, it should be possible.
Does anyone know of an application that can toggle the vibrate/sound on/off and that I can assign to the Long Press Power Key (Long_Power.lnk)?
I would also like to assign the Long Press End Key (Long_End.lnk) to toggle the flight mode mode.
You can use MobileMagic.
Great program.

I second that! I mapped the Comm Manager to a double press (2X) on the Back hardware button. Very handy. Works great.
[SOLVED]
I actually managed to find a solution that works perfect:
1) I found an App "Vibra (switch) here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277811 and created a link to it in the \Windows directory that I calles "Long_Power.lnk".
The great thing is that Vibra even works when the HD is locked by S2U2, so that you can turn the vibrate mode On/Off with a single (long) keypress.
2) I set the Endkey-App to automaically switch Flight Moden On/Off, so that this is only 2 keypresses away.
Have had this phone for 2 days now, pretty amazing but a few things I can't figure out.
1) Is there a simple way to set an automatic time for the phone to keylock? Say after 10 seconds of inactivity or something instead of having to hold down the end button everytime - Keep forgetting -. Already a few accidental calls due to this. Tried lock me lite, doesnt seem to work properly and I like the builtin lock function, just need to get it to do it by itself.
2) Is there a way to set a key where i can long press to switch from vibrate(and silent) to "normal" and vice versa? I'm already using the long end for locking the device.
Thanks, this has been bugging me since I got the phone.
After seeing this message, and not finding the answer, I wrote my own utility to do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580050
You can configure long end to popup a menu, which includes lock, flight safe, vibrate, etc...
I'm posting a Vibra (switch) cab that will switch from vibrate to ring. I have it assigned to long send to switch back and fourth. Otherwise I just use the volume keys pretty successfully (I had this cab from my old phone that didn't have volume keys, so I wanted a button to switch it easily).

My send key is sticking.
1) How do I disable the send key
2) how can I start the phone application with a shortcut ( I would need it if I can disable the send key)
3) how do I change my text message that I can send for an incoming phone call. I've changed it before, but cannot remember how.
1) Why on earth would you want to do that?
2) Your start menu should already have a short-cut somewhere in it with the phone application, just find it and use it.
3) Start Menu/ Settings/ Personal/Phone/Advanced (this is on a WWE rom).
Ok, found #4.
Also, lookined in the windows directory and found vtkey.exe (phone application) and redial.exe (redial). Does anyone see a problem with renameing them so hopefully my send key will not be able to use them?
There is a System -> Button application. Guess I could map the end key hold to the vtkey_rename.exe?
OK, how do I rename system files?
Because my hardware send key is sticking and it constantly opens the phone application and redails the last person I spoke to. My friends are getting quite annoyed and I do not want to spend a week of my life reloading a new phone with my software.
Do you have a better solution?
I do not have a phone dialer application on my start menu. I had to find vtkey.exe in the windows folder.

Maybe you can remap the hardware key to nothing? The remap program is in the themes and apps section.

I turned off all the Sense/FLO stuff that I could find. Mostly I have just stock WM 6.1. I do not see themes. I do have Settings-> Personal -> Buttons. But I cannot figure out how to add the Send Key. I have the following. My phone has 4 buttons and not really sure how to use the Buttons screen.
Send Key (Hold) <None>
Button <Today>
Button <Context Menu>
Just tryed to remap the key using Rhodium Keyboard control. Worked flawlessly
Where is the keyboard control?
I have T-Mobile HTC TP2, WM 6.1.
Take a copy of a link file .lnk of any application you have on your phone and rename it to short_send.lnk and put in \windows. Same trick works with long_send.lnk, short/long for end and power buttons. By doing this i created button shortcuts to apps i want. Super convenient.
Hey people, I've searched around and have not been able to find a solution for a while now so I thought i'd ask the question here.
The Touch Pro 2 has 3 softkeys: 2 on home screen and 1 in the start menu that says (Lock)
The two first softeys are quit easy to manage with different apps or directly from the registry. The third, however, is dedicated to the lock screen (phone) function and I have not found a way to reassign what this button does.
I would like to reassign this button to S2U2 instead using the WM6.5 original lock function.
I've enabled the appropriate options on S2U2 to over ride this button, but whenever my RAM usage reaches critical and Apps autoclose, it seems to break the function of this button and only a restart will solve it. I've even tried adding iLock2 into the task manager exception list but nothing seems to work, which is why i'd just like to assign the lock button to S2U2 permanently.
Does anyone have any idea on how to solve this ?
