I am using smartskey with my TyTn for the shortcuts using the dpad in the phone application. However, after installing pocket informant, when I press right on dpad for contact shortcut I get nothing. Call history, speed dial, and messaging shortcuts work fine. Can I make a registry edit to get the pocket informant contact application to show when pressing the dpad right shortcut and if not that, how can I get the orginal to show.. thanks.
Please use the SmartSkey thread for this!

Hi everyone,
is it possible to put shortcuts on HW Keyboard on BA? For example, I'd like to open a new SMS without using the stylus...
Thank You in advance. Bye

Get SPB Pocket Plus. That'll do the trick
Am I missing something here?
Your Blue Angel has a little silver Messaging button, it's the second one from the left under the screen. I press that then use the dpad...
With the silver button you can open the program, but you do not automatically open a new message (unless you change the button's settings)
With Spb I managed to put an icon on the today screen to open a new SMS. Now I can access the icon with the arrows without using the stylus (thank you!).
But I meant something slightly different. I'd like to put shortcuts directly on the BA's keyboard: to set combinations of keys that give access to specific programs or files... Even with Spb I didn't manage to do it.
Thank You for your help. Bye

how did you manage to add a shortcut to your new messages on the today screen using spb?
In Spb settings I went to the today plug-in options -> objects -> add -> file (I hope the translation is correct since I refer to the italian version...).
Then I added the file \windows\start menu\programs\spb pocket plus actions\[new message].ink

You can also add this shortcut to harware buttons through SPB.
Go to SPB options\buttons and add the shortcuts you need.
Then go to start\settings\buttons to assign these shortcuts to hardware buttons

Thank you again, helterskelter!
But my problem's that I'm not able to assign shortcuts to the BA's keyboard buttons. I can only choose (I think) among the 9 HW buttons. Bye. fabbor75
assign new text message screen to hard button - possible w/o SPB Pocket Plus??
I have SBS pocket plus and in my case is a memory hog... but i admit it has a nice feature where you can assign a shortcut to the new text message screen to any hard button... is there any program that can give me that feature (specifically) or any of you gentleman or ladies know how I can "activate" that shorcut from within windows, registry, etc?
New menu for wm5 will allow you to do that - assign to left or right softkeys see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=40088
Or with Vjsms you can assign this program to hardware button through settings\buttons see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=26972
Hi!
I would like to know if it is possible to change the application that is launched when the sms, email or calls are pressed.
For example, I use Flexmail that may be used to process all messages (sms and etc.) I use this application as the default mail program, but when i press the mentioned buttons above the Poutlook is run.
Is it possible to change the applications assigned to these buttons?
I have the same question... Bump!
I have seen a program or possibility to do that, but I'm not sure where....
Maybe it's possible with HHC (HTC Home Customizer), that can be found elsewhere on this forum. Otherwise I'd look in the registry at
HKLM\Software\HTC if you can find if any programs are assigned to those icons. Try to find poutlook.exe?
i'm pretty sure you can not with the htc home customer v1.0 final. also could not find anything in HKLM\Software\HTC either.
help please...
If you hex-edit the dll, you can see that the buttons are hard-coded to run tmail.exe. But that does give me an idea....
Ok, thank you!
No other suggestions (nor regedit neither HHC helped me)?
I use htc messaging for sms and i would to rotate automaticly in landscape with the g sensor.
the problem is if I use app to autorotate with g sensor (flip it, changescreen, gyrator....), it rotate also the home screen and all the manila because it has the same windows name (Manila).
so is there a solution to rotate only the htc messaging, renaming its windows for example or other solutions?
it would be very useful for me because i like to have the landscape keyboard when writing sms.
thanks
If you go to your Message-Tab and select New Message, the process will have another name. if you add this to changescreen it will allow you to write textmessages in landscape.
but if you choose reply it will be the manila one which will not be rotatet. so everytime you write a message you have to choose it as new message. thats the way i did it. runs like a charm now on my touch hd with htc messaging. still annoying that it wouldnt rotate when you choose reply, but at least i can write in landscape.
i solved it with changescreen. it will show you the appname while you are about to write a new message.
hope it works for you to.
ok thanks, but it's really annoying because i like to see the sms in wich I reply, I want use the threaded mode that allow the htc messaging app.
anyone for another solution?
unfortunately, there's no solution for that at this point.
GSen
i use the application GSen
put this app in your startmenu
everytime you get a sms or mail
click first on gsen at the starmenu
then on you message
now you phone will switch in landscape mode if you want
The only way I have found to type messages in landscape while not affecting manilla ( the dialler rotating is very annoying) is to do a manual rotation when in messaging mode by long pressing the dial button.
To enable this go to Settings ... Personal ... Buttons ... Button 1 , then assign Rotate Screen from drop down list at bottom.
Then when you are replying to text just press and hold dial button and it will go into landscape and keyboard works ok this way , when done just long press to exit landscape.
Hi!
I'm looking for a application that would add program shortcuts to the basic WM 6.1 home screen. Just 6-10 shortcuts, no tabs needed. Something like HTC Home or SPB Pocket Plus (annoying tabs, too many unneeded features).
I tested a few programs like this, but they made too many changes to the start menu.
And it would be cool, it that or another application would allow to quickly change phone profiles (normal/vibrate/silent) either by a programmable button or better by shortcuts on the home screen.
Please recommend, thanks.
