guys,
howto remap right softkey to other app, i.e. wmplayer?
(I can access contacts via smartdialling, so its obsolete..)

do a search on "softkey"

I posted on this a while ago. If I didnt post here, then it is definitely in the WM section of the t-mobile forums over at HowardForums.
-edit: yeah it's here too. Searching is your friend.

Suspend, Alt-Tab and Softreset cabs

Anyone have these cabs? Or programs?
1) Suspend/PowerOff button
2) Alt-Tab so i can link it to a hard button
3) Softreset which i have that i am uploading here but doesn't have a Icon. Its just a plain program. If you have one with a nice icon, please upload here?
Isn't this the wrong forum to post such a request? Oh well, a really quick search for Alt-Tab found http://www.google.com/search?as_q=A...rum.xda-developers.com&as_rights=&safe=images. 2nd listing has your file.
You can find the next one the same way
Hint - look at my sig.
Cheers
Thanx Dr.Puttingham,
I actually found that cab the same time you posted it here. But i am trying to find the suspend and softreset the same way. But i always get some other threads that doesn't provide the cab. Rather they talk about other things.
Do you have the Suspend and Softreset programs?
maybe you would like me to come over and spoon feed you to? what does this have to do with WM6 in my eyes not a damn thing... Boy you just opened the perfect what not to post thread!! I'm not feeling to normal at the moment or I would flame you till my finger hurt. Dr is right SEARCH and if you don't find maybe it doesn't exist... Make it yourself this is a devoloper forum remember not a cab dipository...
I can't remember where I saw it but what you are looking for is in here somewhere. Of course "suspend" and "softreset" will only return about a billion search results. Maybe someone will see your post and can help out more. Most of the folks here are helpful.
Hmm, um, a CAB for an app to soft reset your device? Isn't easier to use the stylus? Maybe I'm nuts?
Thanx.
I've found it. The Alt-tab and the suspend and the softreset. The Suspend and softreset are from this program.. pcshutxp or something like that.
One I've used for a while is PHM's freewares:

Can't remember if it's the Powertoys or Keys that gives you what you're after, I always tend to have both installed as they're pretty small (and free)!
here's the alt-tab program from SPB

HTC Touch Home on my P3600

Hi Guys,
i would like to put on my HTC Trinity the Touch today plugin (like the Kaiser one... with the big clock)..
How i have to do?
here you go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317932&page=2
a simple search would help you find it, there is not reason to post new threads all the time... next time just try to search the forums, and 99% of the time you will find answers to all your questions...
I just had a look to that thread but i noticed 2 problems:
1. it's in French...
2. it has a bug... every SR i have to disable and enable to make it work.
is there any onther version that works perfectly as on the HTC Touch?
Thanks
what you are talking about is the touchflo and at the moment from what ive read it doesnt work completely on the P3600 as it does on the touch
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313280&highlight=touchflo
n no i'm not talking about the Touch Fluo.... but simply about the today plug in.
Thanks
Search really is your best friend. As the site search isn't the best try this: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all
you WILL find what you're looking for . Search for Kaiser 5 tab or kaiser 6 tab. schen's one is great - I recommend the 5 tab as the profiles tab for the ringer is a bit screwy and slows the Trinity down. Also you can find the colour icons!!
The HTC home plugin can be installed as a cab file (try searching for JUVS HTC Home Plug), however it's buggy installed this way as it was meant to be installed into the rom. There are also several cooked roms you could flash to have this plugin, mine and PDAVIET I know for a fact have this.
If you are running WM5 (you shouldn't be, you're in the wm6 forum) it's extremely buggy, you need the wm5 hacked version of the plugin that's in the developers forum...
Wow, you need to read and search some more. I don't say this to be rude, but you have started 23 new threads on xda....

Actually that hacked 6 tab version appears to have that bug, not the original JUVS home plugin, which if you install the 6tab registry edits seems to work great.
Thanks Shadowmite that's what i want to know... i can use search but all i have found was french version or other with some little bug.
now that i have the info i was serching for (JUVS) i can reallyt make a search.
Thanks, really

keyboard buttons not mapped correctly

I recently unlocked and upgraded my 8525 to wm6 using Black Satin and MRvanx's instructions.. (Thanks to all of you!)
Now the keyboard buttons on the slide out keyboard don't seem to be properly mapped to the symbols.
For example, to type a question mark, I simultaneously press the bottom left key and the "F" key. However a "-" appears instead of "?" appears.
How do I fix this?
Thanks!
You can map them correctly by searching for and installing 8525 keyboard fix .cab. Next time search first. Threads such as this occur approximately every two weeks.
you can also use Schaps AdvConfig and choose the right keyboard layout
Thanks.
I did try searching for it. If you don't know the terms for what you are looking for, its nearly impossible to find. I also didn't realize how good of a job google does searching compared to the forum search. Next time I will use google to search the site.
Hopefully, now another noob will find this thread and know to download

Glad you found it. Google is really better for searching the fora than built-in search. Trying to search first can protect you from flame and coarse language here (even though now it is much better than lets say six months ago). I also think that keyboard fix is floating around the hermes wiki (worth reading).

Screen off Cab...

Hi,was using a Vario 2 (hermes) running TNT 2.0/1921 which was very good.It had function called screen off which you could use to turn off the screen and apparently disable all the buttons excepting the power button. This was pretty handy as my video lectures could then run in the background with audio only (no need for the lecturers face). is there any cab available so I could install the same on my newly acquired P3300 pls? Use to use mortplayer but was just too much hassle and the screen-off thing did the same better.I have done a search but its coming up with 30pages of main topics and unfortunately dont have my own or regular internet access. Thanks all....
The search function is a bit retarded here. But you can try searching the forum using google.
Try google for
Code:
"screen off" site:xda-developers.com
answer is at the third search result (clicking on the link at the top, will bring you back to the normal xda-dev forum page). If that doesn't work, there are still a lot more in google.
Hi, there is a Registry tweak you can use that lets media player carry on playing when the device is in "Standby".
I'll see if i can find it...
thank u both...awaiting the second and trying the first. I remember on the hermes it was called "turn off screen"...
sorry cant seem to find it
Ive had this for ages on my i900

Key Remapping without AEBPlus

I had a fairly simple desire to map in a hotkey to enable and disable wifi with a single press-- I'm using the current 3VO 6.5 ROM. I'd located the Wireless Toggle utility, but now I need to attach it to a key. I didn't want to use the T-zones key by redirecting the Short_IE.lnk, because I find Celetask very useful there. I assume I could redirect the camera with Short_Camera, but I kind of like having this there too. The AEBPlus utility seems like overkill-- I only want to redirect one key, and I'm a little intimidated by the "oops I can't use my dash anymore" potential from mismapping some keys.
The solution I wanted to come up with is mapping an Alt value to the T-Zones or Mail key, or possibly redirecting the Mail key. However when I look at the et9 keyboard mapping file, I see that these keys aren't even in it from what I can see. I guess they are different from the other keys, and so I'm not sure I have the capacity to add an Alt value. So these are my questions:
- Is there some integrated way to assign Alt values to the Tzones and Mail keys without AEBPlus or another utility?
- Is tmail.lnk the shortcut that controls the Mail key? Are there other shortcuts that also are involved?
Sorry if this has been answered before. I tried to search on this, but maybe I just wasn't coming up with the right search string.
Thanks,
Gnat
Well, I take little pride in having stumped the forum-- at least I didn't get a "learn to search" response.
In the end I have solved the problem by using Chome Configuration to remap the second softkey for the Wireless Manager option under Settings from "All Settings" to "Wireless Toggle". This spares me from having to open HTC Communication Manager and scrolling around to enable wifi-- a pretty significant improvement for me.
Thanks,
Gnat
Glad you worked it out and didn't get use the search as it's not an answered question not many people use AEButton on smartphone and defo not in sticky
If you want a guide still of how to use AEButton i could run you off some screenys to demonstrate as it's an amzing bit of kit.

Don't know if you are still reading this, but if you know of a tutorial or guide to AEB, please share it.
I'm trying out the app right now, but find it extremely difficult to figure out, how to use it. And the author included no guide nor help file with the app. And his web page doesn't tell you how to use it.
One other concern--it seems to slow down the device a whole lot!
