no help for you, but in my system it changes back even without soft reset. it worked for a day or something, but when i used it with wmp the next day tha cam started again.
Hello, Please can you help.
I've been following various threads to remove the O2 active application, and successful - my Internet Explorer does now go to MY home page instead of 02's!
Unfortunately I've lost button control, buttons 3 & 4 no longer appear in my assign list and button 5 no longer carries a number.
Does anyone know where I can fix this in the Windows coding?
Thanks Paul
I don't know whether this will help or not, but I had a similar problem with the buttons on my Orange M2000 (specifically the camera button).
I eventually found that there was a program in the startup folder which seemed to be re-assigning the camera app to the camera button with each reset. Moving this program out of startup solved that problem.
OK, I've found a folder in Windows called AppButtons, when I remove the shortcuts inside, then some of the app buttons stop working (error no shortcut) but replacing the shortcuts does not refresh the list to produce 9 different buttons.
Thanks Paul
I have bought a cingular 8525 smartphone on ebay and the phone has a personal password in order to log on, and I have no clue what the personal password is as well as the person who sold it to me. If you have any idea how to crack the personal password please post the instruction on the forum other wise this phone will stay on my shelf as a display for its entire life.
Hard-reset it, then you can use it.
unlock personal password
What do yo mean hard-reset it ?..... would you mind to be more explicit and that way I know what to do in order to unlock the personal password.
Thanks

Typically, in order to hard reset, you have to hold down BOTH soft keys while you soft reset.
So, hold down both SOFT KEYS and poke the stylus thru the little whole on the side of the phone.

I DONT KNOW UR UNIT...MINE IS XDA IIS...BUT IM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH PASSWORD...IF APPLIED TO MY UNIT...
ABOVE SOLUTION IS APPLICABLE TO WM2003 WHERE ALL DATA IS STORED IN RAM.
BUT HOW ABOUT IN WM6? I HV JUST UPGRADED TO WM6 3DAYS AGO...THEN SUDDENLY...WHEN I TURNED ON MY DEVICE AND ENTER MY PASSWORD...PASSWORD WAS NOT ACCEPTED!!! TRIED TO RESET....NOTHING HAPPENED...TRIED TO FLASH THE ROM AGAIN BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET AROUND? HACK? ETC? PLS HELP. TNK U VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE.
MY UNIT: XDA IIs with wm6 from Helmi
maria_terie: obviously, it's because you seem to always leave "Caps Lock" on, probably while you entered your password as well.
Same happened with my XDA2s but just following the instructions below help me fix the problem, hope it might help you too..
1) Use two fingers to simultaneously press the RECORD and CAMERA buttons of the phone (on the phone's left side). Whilst these two buttons are depressed, use the stylus to click the soft-reset button underneath the phone - keep the two buttons depressed until the boot loader screen appears.
2) This should enable three options on the boot screen. These options allows a YES/NO response. Use the RECORD and CAMERA buttons to navigate between the options, and switch the YES/NO values. Set the following:
1] Enable KITL: NO (this is a debug tracing option which isn't required, except possibly for developers)
2] Format Registry Hive: YES (clears the registry)
3] Format Storage: YES (formats the internal memory: "\" directory, and under "\RamDisk\". Items under any storage card "\Storage Card\" are not formatted).
3) Once these options are set, press the MAIL button (in between today and the Pocket IE button) to confirm these options, and continue with the Registry and Storage format.
4) The device performs the reset, and the Windows CE setup screens (ie. screen alignment etc.) appear. Continue as per a new install...HOPE IT HELPS YOU!
I tried remapping the left soft key when the TF3d is loaded with Advanced config and now when I press the soft key it does nothing but flash. I also tried SK Tools but still it shows camera but does nothing. I don't want to "hard reset" Again...Lol if I can help it so does anyone know what the reg value is and where? One more question is how can I (if possible) lengthen the keyboard lite up time and the time that the icons stay on when TF3d is activated
Thanks...Joe
Search is your friend
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3939348&postcount=4 for the softkeys. There are reg hacks for display timeout, I don't know if they alter the keyboard timeout

Thanks for the reply but it looks like another hard reset to get the softkey working again. I tried what you suggested but still no good. Thank you for your time ...Tj

The problem is, in this forum and in ppcgeeks, there is no clear cut answer. Truthfully, I dot really want to assign buttons, however, there are other options that are available for personalizing. Following this paragraph is my situation:
Phone: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2
ROM: Stock - Windows 6.1 & Manila 2.1
I have a few apps, but none that should have messed with these settings (MS My Phone, Resco File Explorer (has the ability, but I didn't change it through it), Resco Radio, Resco Picture Viewer Pro, a few games, Office Mobile 10 beta, etc... The rest are all stock, coming with the phone)
When I go into the button config here is the settings:
Send Key(Hold) - Voice Command
Button - <Context Menu>
Button - <Today>
Button - <Context Menu>
Button - <Context Menu>
Button - <Context Menu>
When I try to goto any other tab in the setting program, it tells me "Each program button must have a unique button assignment" and then goes back to the button assignment tab. When I try to exit, goto the today screen, or open any other program it does the same.
There are three possible ways of dealing with this:
1. Deleting these other button assignments - The problem here is I don't know what buttons these refer to and if deleted could pose problems.
2. Changing the names - Not really changing the names, I guess to me, it seems that the system is assigning five separate possible tasks to "Button." Again, not knowing what these buttons refer to, if changed, I could have to press volume up to hang up a call and press the power button to send a call.
3. Hard reset - I thought about this, but there are a few places where there have been cases of people trying this and it didn't do anything. I guess I would rather try alternatives before going through this drastic a measure.
If anyone has ideas on how to do any of these (save the hard reset, as I know that), I would be very much appreciative. Also, if any one has any other suggestions, besides those above, I would be more than happy to try them.
Thanks.
Edit:
Thought it prudent to add, most of these apps (save of course Office 10 beta) that I now have, I have had through three phones (Mogul, Touch Pro, touch pro 2). The first two never had any problems with these apps and as they are all HTC phones, I don't see why it would cause these kinds of problems in this phone and neither of it's predecessors.
Sorry.. haven't heard a reply, so Bump it up.
such an story,, such an answer..
the best way to assign app/programs to buttons is with this program!!

I was just about to post that link!
OP, whatever it is you're using to remap keys, drop it and use the linked keyboard controller. It's ridiculously good.
