Volume Slider, other functionality? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi everyone, just wondering if there was any way to change the function of the volume slider to be an up down control. Almost like the scroll wheel on the hermes.
thanks all
Rob.

Yes, there is this little program that i cannot live without now

I780 and Smartkeys / AEButton Plus probelm

Hi, I recently bougth a Samsung i780 (italian unbranded), I would like to use the volume buttons as scroller, I tried both Aebutton and Smartkeys and both are working almost fine.
Almost...
With both the utility the smartphone hangs whenever I launch the camera app, no matter if I use a program shortcut or the HW button, no matter if the default camera HWbutton is enabled or not.
Any other user faced this problem ?
Any workaround found ?
Any other sw I can use ?
Thanks in advance.
hi. I have had EXACTLY the same problem as I have tried to do exactly what you have done with the volume buttons. sometimes it works and sometimes not. . (actually I couldn't figure out what was making the camera hang - u think its aebutton: could be...). the i780 is a great device, basically my tytn ii but faster. slimmer and a far better form factor. mouse ideas is novel but it does miss the directional arrow buttons.
anyway. I haven't figured out a fix yet, just wanted to show my support for your post!
Yep !
Exactly the same here ! Hope I will find a software that works !
Thanks for your interest, i hope some more skilled user(s) can help us to solve the problem.
In the meantime I'm go to ask some help to Alexander Eltsin (the author of AeBUTTON PLUS), but I'm afraid that the response will be the same as when I asked about the the treo 750 problem (no device in my hand, not a lot I can do).
on my treo 650 and 680 i could assign a shortcut to ANY key on my keyboard (long pusdh). Anyone know which software can do this?
PQZ II, a freeware, can remap buttons, works on volume and the camera button as ok, and the camera keeps on working!! plus you can get more then one set of remapping using assigned alt and ctrl keys, really nice app, although buttons plus double, tripple press is great.
Also is there a solution to the mouse button not doing a long press to the "right click" menu like the regular dpad middle button or stylus long press? it's really annoying samsung not adding that, there are no direction keys so by default you cant even use the soft menu button because once you make a file it is executed.... nm PQZ solves this with the volume button, plus the annoying problem that the volume button works while device locked in pocket is also solved by this.
could you explain if its possible to remap the volume keys, using them has scroll???

can you show us how to configure it to remap volume keys to up/down?
Tested multiple version of PQz - it works and seem to be really powerful - unfortunately it is not able to catch the volume up/down on the I780. Any other key is recognized except volume up/down....
Ok managed to make it work (basically I've missed the flag to enable use of volume buttons).
I can confirm it works and doesn't broke the camera button!!
thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
The 0.0.8c version did not work but the 0.0.8 works very well on the i780 !!
It seems to be a very good software, with many possibilities (like AE button plus, perhaps with even more options) and it seems to take less memory
Very good, very cool.
Tks to sevet for your link ;
Regards
anyone experience many crash of PqzII?

Configure the apps (you can launch PQzII_Setup in the installation folder):
- flag "enalbe volume key convert" in the Window section
- in the Code section flag "use this section" and add a mapping IN= VOL-U => OUT=UP, IN=VOL-D => OUT=DOWN
PQZ II is not working at all on my device! The only thing I get is a little white square wich opens in front on my device...
Anyone who has a clue how to fix this?
just read the docs....
you have to tap on the square until a menu popup

[QUESTION] How to block or remove the ringtone volume control

Hello,
Does anybody know how to have only the SYSTEME volume control, and not the Ringtone volume control. Often I miss some phone calls because, by mistake, ringtone volume is too low.
Is it possible to have always the ringtone volume high ?
You could try to edit some regkeys, but I'm not sure if is possible to fix your question through the registry.

Wow this advice really helped , I used a regedit app on my HD and went to the directory you said , then I saw an entry for 'DefaultPage' . I changed the value from '1' to '0' and now whenever I press the volume key , it changes system volume , thank you very much
Excellent tip. This has improves the HD's functionality a great deal, as I don't now accidently change the ring volume.
This should be added to the Wiki tips!!!
Excellent! I lost my .cab for this but so its not much more dificult.
Thanks

Volume Control

I was wondering if any of you have a link to the Volume Control app that comes with the Mega GSM dialer. I don't want to use the dialer for it's limitations and will stick with the stock dialer. All I want is the volume control so that I can control both ringer and system volume with one finger gesture.
Thanks

geomun,
thanks much. Works like a charm.
I am using the latest NFSFAN Rom(6.5.1) and in the screenshots he shows an interesting dialer with round black/white number buttons. Is that part of his ROM because I didn't see it when I Installed v16 and now 6.5.1.

[Q] Disable Transparent Bars in Start Menu & Pocket Track Changing!

Had my Touch Pro2 for about a week now, and I'm loving it (coming from a TyTN II) I've found a ROM I like, set it up the way I want it, and I'm very happy apart from a couple of little niggles. It's so fast and smooth compared to my old phone!! And the screen is gorgeous
Anyway, I've been a member of these fantastic forums for a long time now, and I don't ask many questions, since usually I can find the answers I am looking for (I like figuring things out for myself!) but I have searched and searched for an answer to these questions to no avail.
So, here goes:
1. Is there any way to disable the transparency of the task bar and soft key bar on the start menu? It annoys me having the background show through. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and don't like the fact that it's the ONLY place where it happens, I'd like a consistent experience Why on earth did Microsoft decide to do this? If it's going to be transparent then apply it everywhere! It looks a little weird since the ROM I am using (which is awesome, btw ) has custom task bar icons, and little squares show up around them when the task bar goes transparent. I guess I'm just being picky but if anyone knows a reg tweak or some other way of doing this that would be great!
2. Has anybody found any way to change tracks in WMP without taking the device out of your pocket? On my old phone, when using WMP's Toggle Screen feature, I could feel for and use the DPad in my pocket to change tracks and volume without the device waking up. On the TP2 I can change the volume using the volume keys but changing tracks causes it to wake up and go crazy in my pocket! (I've used advanced keyboard config to assign the windows key and back key to DPad left and right, since I find having both hardware and software buttons in WM6.5.X a little pointless). If I lock the phone, then the volume keys still work, which is very useful, but obviously non of the other keys do so no track changing.
I know there is a program that allows you to use the voice command button on the HTC headphones to change tracks on the HTC music tab, but I have to use custom headphones because my ears are a funny shape and normal headphones don't stay in xD Also I don't like the music tab, it seems slow and doesn't show all the album art properly. I actually like WMP, it's always worked fine for me, don't know why everyone hates it so much BTW I've disabled the standard 6.5 lockscreen and am just using the soft key unlock like in 6.1
Sorry for the epic long post and thanks in advance!

Here's how I have my phone set up.
I set the navbar height to zero and enabled pie controls. By default, the navbar keys are pre-installed in pie, and you can reorder them however you want.
Then you can set up to 10 targets on it, with the option to long press (you set the duration ~ I have five targets plus long press on 3 of them).
Getting rid of navbar gives you more screen real estate. More screen is good. Plus it gets rid of that pesky line.
I also set my dock to auto hide after two seconds. I know that it's on the bottom. I swipe up and it appears. I don't need to see it on every homescreen. Hey! More real estate!
Thank you but I really dont like swiping around whole screen to see keys.
I did that with some xposed module, I think it was gravitybox. I've changed the order of the buttons.
