Does anyone know the registry tweak to make the end call button close applications when your in them instead of minimizing them? I remember seeing it but now I cant find the dang post.
I dont think that's possible on a smartphone such as the Excalibur. Although that would be possible on a PPC.

Ahh I thought I read a post of Rip Syntaxx saying there was a reg entry you could change but I read so many posts they all kind of blend into one. Thanks for the response.
Look for a program called AE Button for smartphone...
Excellent little program will let you remap any key, and lets you change the function.
I have my end call button not only end calls, but also close programs instead of minimize..
It will do exactly what you want it to do..
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!!

Hello,my opinion : if you post something in blackstone thread it's normally compatible with this pda , no ?

Thanks! just did this as per your instruction but still no joy!! still get the same error message on start up "SMartTouch service is not found"
Hey guys,
Just thought you might want to know incase it is annoying anyone else.
To change the softkey from reply all to reply you need to do the following registry edits.
From the link:
If you want to fix it you need to turn outlook enhancement off.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Servic es\OutlookEnhancement]
"Module"=""
then softreset
to turn it on
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Servic es\OutlookEnhancement]
"Module"="\\windows\\OutlookEnhancement.dll"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\OutlookEnhancement]
Remove the name under "dll"
then softreset
Doing the first part only didnt work on my TP2, but after i removed the one in HKLM as well it worked
Cheers
WOW thank you! thats exactly what i was searching for!
Does this fix change anything else than the softkey?
Is there a way to change the "delete" key? When I choose an account, then hit Inbox to see the emails, I sometimes hit delete (when the phone is slower, sometimes you think that you didn't press on Inbox and when you press again, you hit delete).
Have deleted a few mails this way, so changing it into anything else (e.g. reply to all or something) would be nice!
Thanks , this was bugging me for a while

I would also like to know the answer to that. Removing an entire "Outlook Enhancement" DLL sounds like it might have side effects!
Those registry entries don't seem to exist in the 6.5 official ROM. Don't seem to be any for OutlookEnhancement. Any ideas?

Same question here. No trace of "OutlookEnhancement" in the registry.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you so much for this. I had the same issue with just doing step #1 with no results. I should have known to search for other entries with that dll. Thanks!!!!!
I have WM6.5 and found both entries in the registry editor..... but that doesn't mean "Reply to all" was replaced with "Reply" when both items were cleared! I followed the steps to the letter, both Module in HKCU and Dll in HKLM were blanked, soft reset after each one, and when clicking on an email, the left softkey still reads "Reply to all"
I'm not the type that needs to "Reply to all" everytime I send an email - especially when "all" includes me again in the TO: field!!!
Possibly a bit late but I removed the 'reply to all' option by editing the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\ShowReplyAllEmailSK1 and setting the value to 0.
Worked for me
On my TP2 from t-mobile the edits in the registry worked great. Had to delete both files though for it to work. I wish I tried the method stated above first though, seems easier to reverse.

AHHH!!! There you go, thank you for the help, this works perfect after the soft reset! MUCH appreciated!
Changing softkey from reply all to reply in touchpro2 - found the registry entry!
OK, I JUST found this registry entry for the HTC Touch Pro 2. Mine is a US Cellular handset running WM 6.5. I, also, could not locate the OutlookEnhancement referred to in previous posts.
I found and changed the following registry entry, and it seems to have worked. Do this at your own risk, but if you are like me, and not finding answers anywhere else, it's worth a shot. You can always reverse it.
Find the following registry entry:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings
Locate the following value:
ShowReplyAllEmailSK1
Change the value from "1" to "0" - without quotes, obviously.
Hope this works for you as it has for me!
Whoops! I'm an idiot! Didn't see that page 2 of this thread already had the answer I found! Oh well, hopefully it will increase visibility in the search engines for others trying to find the answer!

Here you go
I don't know the exact name of it, but the grey screen that tracks events. Shows you your battery life, new messages and such. It basically lists system events like new voicemails, IM's....etc.
Now when click on the top icons I get the regular connection bubble, new messahe bubble...the big grey screen doesn't come up any longer.
Only thing I installed today was the WiFi Router cab. I uninstalled that to see if for any reason that could have caused it but nope.
Notes: I am using AT&T's TP2 (Tilt 2) on Stock Rom
Edit: HTC Notification Manager service...that's what I am talking about
In your favorite registry editor, go to HKLM/Services/NOTIFICATIONMANAGER
Look for the key named Dll, and make sure that the value for that key is:
"NotificationManager.dll"
Be sure that the key is correct Uppercase and Lowercase as it is typed here.
If that does not fix it, I really don't know!

Ya that is set correctly. I downloaded "FdcSoft's Task Manager" to see Windows Services screen and saw that the service is set to auto but it was stopped. I started it and its working but when I reboot the phone, its stopped again...
Is there a way to use MortScript to start a service? Cause if so, then I can just drop a script in the startup folder...
Have the same problem here. But when checking in Windows, don't even have the NotificationManager.dll anymore ???
Can some other software deleted the file ?
Can someone post the dll file here ?
Thx

This is NotificationManager.dll from a SPRINT touch pro2, I do not know if there are differences in the dll based on carrier.

You may not see a 'dll" but you might still see "NotificationManager" without the extension...I think that is it.

Does anyone know how you can start a windows service using a mortscript? If I can do that, I can drop that into the startup folder and that should hopefully get it running again on boot....
Goodnight people ...
I have a question for you:
Because I hate the touchscreen keyboard, I wanted to know if there was a way to prevent it being opened automatically!
Let me explain .. when I write a new text message, a new mail, when I use opera but when I select any text box, it automatically opens the touchscreen keyboard!
can prevent this thing from happening?
I only use the HW keyboard ... and would prevent the automatic opening of the touchscreen keyboard!
I dug into the registry, more precisely here:
[HKLM \ Software \ Tegic \ eT9]
and all subfolders below ... I could not find anything about it!
How can I do?
Thanx!!!
Try this:
Code:
[I]HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\TurnOffAutoDeploy[/I] = 1
[I]HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\AllowChange[/I] = 0
[I]HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Disable Auto SIP[/I] =1 (Note the space in "Internet Explorer"; there's a different directory without the space)
I found these online, so I don't know if they'll work.
Actually, I think only the second tweak ('AllowChange') is necessary. I remember trying it before. You have to know, however, that it will (should) completely disable the virtual keyboard; you can only launch the SIP by changing the value back to '1'.
yeah i used to turn it off with a tweak program. turning off auto works most places but not in opera. however later builds of opera wont show the onscreen keyboard if the physical is kicked out.
thanks for explanation ... really helpful, but my intention was not to completely disable the keypad, but only prevent it opened automatically!
I don't like the on-screen keyboard popping up all the time either. So I took an interest in this thread. I found that of the suggested registry changes mentioned above, the oly one I needed to impliment was this one:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\TurnOffAutoDeploy = 1
This seems to keep the on-screen keyboard from popping up on its own, but still allows me to access the keyboard when I need it.
Hopes this is helpful...

It's strange, however, that I have that same exact reg tweak, but my virtual keyboard still pops up on its own (using the ROM in my sig).

I tried one of the tweaks I listed a few months ago. I think the "AllowChange" tweak disables the launch (auto and manual) of the virtual keyboard.
I remember helping someone on an EnergyROM thread about this same topic. He wanted to completely disable the virtual keyboard, so he was happy with the tweak.

You could just add a DWORD for the "TurnOffAutoDeploy" key. That should suffice.
You're welcome for the tweak, but I understand the problem of having to remod the registry and soft reset when you need it. Maybe you could push for an app that can "switch" the registry key for you without a soft reset?

You're right... I never thought to create the DWORD!
I try now... and then I post the result!
PS: I can create an app that modifies the registry to enable and disable the touchpad, but I think it is impossible to avoid the SR, because without it, the touchpad still does not work even after I edit the registry, because this type of change requires necessarily an SR to become effective.
I've tried to add manually the DWORD "TurnOffAutoDeploy=1", but the problem isn't solved!!!
PS: I can create 2 different CAB... 1 for "Powering ON" and 1 for "Powering Off" the Touchpad... because i'm not a programmer, and i haven't the necessary competence to create an application in c++!
The only one problem, is that i don't know how to avoid the SR necessary to make active the change!
If I find a way to solve the SR problem, i have solved my touchpad problem!

You can try Mobilnaut SYM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459253).
When Mobilnaut SYM is activated, the SIP does not pop up when the keyboard is open.
for my it work with the "Deploy" reg kack. the "allow" one killed it all toghether. I't wouldn't apear, even if i click it.
I have a diferente problem now. I'm Portuguese, I need special char "ç" a lot. my harware keyboard doesn't have that. so I have to pop up the SIP every time just for that one.
Can someaone develop a small app i can link to a hardware button, that all it does is type "ç"?
Thank you!

There is a registry edit that worked just fine on my T-Mobile HTC HD2, so you might want to check it out.
