My original Vario used button 5 to record my voice when I held the button for a few seconds. I recently installed Black Shadow and I have lost this functionality.
I have tried using the Buttons settings to reconfigure Button 5 (held) but I can't see the audio recording function in the list of available functions.
Any ideas?
Bobby
There is a cab for this somewhere called "wmxl v0.10 button 5 to record fix" I have it that I could mail over to you just let me know

Could you send it to me as well please
Thank you very much.
I'll upload it here
Here you go people, that should work
Thanks for posting the fix Avengerpenguin. I've been trying to get this function back.
I've installed the CAB, but no love. Am I missing a step?

have you tried to select that feature through the settings screen for button assignment. I had to switch min to a diffrent feature that i wanted using that control.
Maybe this will help
Not sure if anyone can get their hands on one, but my father just got the HTC Kaiser, and it comes pre-programmed to use the record button to start a voice note in the standard notes program. I have no idea how to pull off the programming but everything needed, i imagine is done and in the phone already.
Tried selecting record feature to a button. Found that the "Record" shortcut does not function. Probably miss-programmed. Anyone know what the shortcut should be?

You must first install a cab file that removes or re-assigns the BTT button, then install the Cab file to create a record button 5.
Along the bottom of the phone there's a home button and an endcall which, within programmes, seem to do the same thing - take you back to the today screen. Or, in my case the 6.5 CHome thingy. And the back button in most apps takes you to the home screen too - so that's three buttons largely doing the same thing most of the time.
The new phones with 6.5 preinstalled will have a windows-flag start menu button, I assume this will open up the new hexagony start menu.
Is there a way of remapping the home button so it launches the start menu instead?
That is EXACTLY what I have been thinking for the last days. Pressing Home-key should naturally bring up the start-menu.
Nice idea, even because reaching the top left corner with your right thumb(maybe for left handed it's easier ) while holding the HD with the right hand is a little bit tricky
I'd like something small to do this but I have a feeling most people will return with the suggestion "use aebplus to remap"
I have the same feeling wiggz, There must be a registry key or something that can be changed and put into cab format? Anyone got any ideas?
Me to
So, we are many!!
I too have been looking for a way to do this for ages.
I too will be watching this thread with interest and hope.

No aeblus cannot map the home button as it's hard coded into manila!

so as the home button is coded into manila it mean's one has to play with the manila files and remap to start menu all that would mean is to change some scripts!!
bottomline Home button in theory can be mapped to the start menu!! so it's plausible!!!
i'm going to watch this thread as well --- i've been looking for this since I got hold of my HD. I've already remapped the "back" button to S2U2 via AEB since you are correct, essentially the home, back, and end buttons all work very similarly.
Hoping that someone posts a solution to this!
i have the solution...install this program and you can change all the hard keys to do almost any function...i have mine set up to do the exact same thing that you want it to do!!
cheers!!

Thanks,but could give more informations to remap keys,please ? The list is empty when i launch the application ...
Same here. I was so happy when I found this thread..
When I tried installing that, it did not work... Maybe it was my ROM.
There are REG keys that remap home in certain cituations, i.e. manilla but I have yet to find a way to get the reg key to do anything else.
The new keypad.dll maps it to a normal vk_lwin, so you can remap it as you like.
Unfortunately I have not yet seen it an any ROM.

It is for Diamond and the author says here post 10 "For the touch HD, maybe you should download HTCAPI.DLL somewhere, put it in /Windows and try again". Haven't read the whole thread though so not sure if this is what the problem is.
i know its a little confusing to get it started...so heres what you do...install cab, go to program files\dredsensor and click on dredsensor.exe and a config.ini will appear...now close out whatever app you are using to view files...and open dredsensor...now you will see default under name...tap default and then click menu, then edit...change type to launcher...then go to click and tap the gray box next to the home key...go to events and chose Misc:Start, hit select, hit ok to comfirm, change whatever others you want to...then hit save, then hit ok to confirm...then hit exit...then you should be good to go...hope this helps!!

hi!
I've installed PSShutXP and it works like a charm!
I was wondering how I can change the Power Button settings to assign PSShutXP to Power Button!
Registry? Tweak?
Thanks
I don't know if this would work on the TP2, but for the kaiser, you just go to psshutxp's folder (in program files if it's installed to your device) and copy the .exe, then go to the windows folder and make a shortcut and name it short_power or long_power depending on if you want it for just a short press or a long, delayed press. let me know if this works, I'd like to be able to still do this when I get my TP2
now working!

sorry just to clarify:
the shortcut I offered worked right?? I wanna know so that when I get the TP2 I can use shortcuts like that.
and does the power button actually turn the phone off?? cos when I installed psshutxp on my tilt the power button just turned the screen off. but it didn't turn the PHONE off
You can find an updated PSshutXP cab file that replaces the LongPowerButton press here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475762
Hi, i just looked at the homepage of psshutxp, however i fail to see what additional benefits i get from this program? Anything that this program does seems to be already built into the preinstalled software. Am i missing something here?

Does anyone has a link for PS shut down?
Hello.
Firts of all sorry for my bad english.
I know that there is enough applications like this, but I've decided to write my own application, as a beginning for learn embeded C++ and mobile devices development. So, because this is my first app. in such domain, please don't punch me .
May be "power manager" sounds hard, this app. do exactly the same as per example psShotXP, namely:
- turn off the screen of Your device
- put the device in suspended mode
- soft reset the device
- turn off the device (HTC devs.).
- turn on/off wifi
- turn on/off phone module
- turn on/off bluetooth (make discoverable/invisible)
- switch phone bands Auto-2G-3G
You also can create 4 shortcuts to the program with parameters:
0 - turn off the screen of Your device
1 - put the device in suspended mode
2 - soft reset the device
3 - turn off the device.
4 - turn on/off phone module
5 - turn on/off wifi
6 - turn on/off bluetooth
You can change the images of backrounds button separator and buttons, they will be located in "Images" folder after install. With one restriction: now the buttons are black, so if you change the back of main program, consider this ...
Remarks: To close the main window you must tap anywhere outside the buttons or in space between buttons. Also to close additional windows tap the Close button or empty space of window.
P.S.
Discoverable/invisible mode for bluetooth is working on Microsoft stacks, on broadcom is to be developped (works just on/off bluetooth)
P.S. Supported screen resolutions: QVGA (240x320), Square (240x240), SquareQVGA (320x320), VGA(480x640), Square VGA (480x480), WVGA (480x800)
Regards.

Hi
Works fine on Touch Diamond 2. Thanks
I am myself a developer and I was looking for a way to shut down the device from a shortcut. With the keyword "PowerOffWarning" from you I finally found the solution.

Hi.
By "PowerOffWarning" I want to say, that when You long-press the power button on device it seems that a program PowerOffWarning.exe (wich You can find in \wndows dri.) is launched, and You can see the message box "Power will be turned off ...".
This is not my discovery, this is a standard HTC feature ... and a found it here

And about PowerOffWarning, I repeat that this is a HTC program, not mine, and if in \win. dir is no such file, the renaming of SVMPowerMgr to PowerOff will not help.

I have installed your software, but found the when I pressed and hold the power button for my Diamond 2, instead of showing the power off warning, your menu pop out. And if I uninstall your program, I cannot power off my device, because the program is looking for the SVM Power Mgr.exe.

There is an old PPC feature that seems to be missing from this phone (TP2 Sprint) and that is the option to wake the phone (turn on from stand by) by "Pressing Any Key".
This used to be a feature under settings, but not there on this phone. I think it would go perfect with S2U2. Can anyone tell me if there is a reg entry I can do, cab I can download or _____? to make this happen on the TP2?
Thanks
-D
I second this request. In addition I would like to be able to suspend the device (put the device to sleep) when I hit the end call key ONLY when I am on the home screen. My Treo 750 did this and i liked that b/c I do not like always going to the top of the device to hit the power button. Thanks in advance for anybody that can help.
Both seems like good suggestions & now that i think about it....i want them too!
Once again, thank you too anyone who can sort them in advance!
Power Button To Resume Alternative
I agree, how can we set our phones to resume from standway by pressing screen / other buttons?

If you want to wake up TP2 by any hardware keys, please try: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD "KeyLock" = 0 (default is 1) then Reset..

Perfect! Thanks. That did it.
And it works perfect with S2U2 so no accidents.
OK I am going to 2nd the the "end to suspend request" too. Personally I would prefer the press and hold of the red end key to have an option to power down (suspend). Anyone got an answer for that? That would really get us ex-treo users in the goove

Additionally, is there any way to make the device resume by only pressing the end call key and not just any of them.

Hi guys,
My tp2 used to wake up on any hardware key , but after the upgrade to WM6.5 available on HTC we site , it stopped and now it just wakes up using the power button.
I have tried with no success:
- Keylock changes in the registry
- AE Button Plus
- Keylock.exe
- CS Dev control
I know that this is not big deal for some, but for me is kinda annoying as i was used to wake it up using the hardware keys.
Anyway, thanks for your time and i would appreciate very much if anyone has any suggestion on this matter
Thanks

Hi All
Good news. For those who upgraded their TP2 to WM 6.5 and now are having problems to wake up the device with any other key apart from the power button, even using the tips from the previous messages in this post, here is how i solved this problem today.
I used the application "Rhoduim Keyboard Controller" from the post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
attention for the red line :
This is for Rhodium only! Do not try to install this on other devices!
Also a good list of applications for TP2 can be found at this post, and it was there were i found the "Rhoduim Keyboard Controller"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550973
I hope this will be helpful for someone.
does anyone know if it would be possible to wake the device from a quick double tap?

I am a noob, and was wondering where do I go to change this registry. plus can i change it without have a registry editor of any sort?
Interestingly, installing Rhoduim Keyboard Controller allows keylock.exe (attached) to work. Rhoduim Keyboard Controller looks like an excellent app but a little complicated for what I want to achieve. I just want my "do not lock buttons" option back, and that's what I've got.
I'm running a UK TP2 with WM6.5.
If anyone is intersted, I use my TP2 with Memory Map (a topographical mapping app) in an otterbox. The problem is, without being able to turn on the TP2 from the front buttons you have to open the box to get to the power button - defeating the object of having it in a protective box!
Hope this is of some use to someone.
