Possible to Change in call softkey? - HTC Excalibur

Hi,
when I make a call, the left soft key says calendar, can i change it to speaker phone?
it would be very convient for when I'm driving, I can just press the left soft key.
instead of looking at the phone and going to menu.
Thanks

Yes it works on every ROM.
I use it several time a day too.

Am I just missing it?

I've tried several custom roms, but unless I'm just blind, I cannot seem to find a button that allows you to make outgoing calls without going through several menu options to bring up the phone app. Shouldn't there be a button on the main screen that lets you make calls?
Green call hard button right under the screen.

Thanks. I got so use to the soft call button on the stock rom that I forgot about the hard buttons altogether.

[Q Solved] How do I reject a call when screen is locked?

I feel like such a noob for asking this but I can't figure it out.
How do I reject an incoming call when the screen is locked? I want to let the call go thru immediately to voicemail.
I have tried:
- turning the phone face down (which silences the ringer but doesn't reject the call)
- swiping up (this seems to work on some other phones but not the Defy)
Is there some setting I am missing? All I can do is unlock the screen and then hang up on the person - not very polite, and they don't even go thru to voicemail!
Oops sorry I figured it out ... it's the POWER button.
Doh!
there should be a green and a red slider, slide the red one.

I thought the power button was doing the same thing as the red bar, it goes to voice mail after u press it?

looks like it, but i never came to the idea to do not use the red button
and press the power button instead :=P
Solved, thanks

Yeah that works too - and I did try this the first time, but probably my swiping skills are poor.
I've changed the thread title to 'Solved'
Thanks to all.
I really feel like a dumb noob

[Req] Remap hardware buttons

I just found this in the NS4G forum and I wondered if anyone could do it? I have small hands and it's hard for me to reach the menu button but if the search button could be changed I'd be a happy person

i'd say you need to post those files for someone to work on it.
they have an app in the market but I can't remember the name.
It remaps your search key.
I'll try and adb pull these files if I get the chance...not sure how much editing they need or if you can jsut follow the instructions in the other thread for the NS4G
i had the same problem, so i rooted my phone, installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464
and remapped the keys. now im happy

which version did you use
DONT get the galaxy s version.
It works but kinda limited... Still better than nothing.
Also, if you remap, you lose long press.

Long press of home key, long press of search key... Home key brings up task manager, search key brings up voice command. You would lose that.

Has anyone gone in and looked at actually 'physically remapping' the keys.
All I want is to switch out Home and Menu. Plus, if they are actually just switched on the board, there would be no long-press loss.
Eff it, I'm gonna give it a shot.
Update: Nah, forget that... Once I got up in there, I saw that the leads from the cap keys to its controller are all underneath the digitizer, and that is hard-glued to the edge of the board chassis. I'm not going in THAT deep, lol.
Oh well, a shot was given.

not on my phone. they are both working for me
I would love it if I could set more "long-press" buttons on my phone. Like if I could Long-press the menu button to bring up my call history or something like that.

It's just a setting you need to correct. Do this:
Click and open the phone
Tap the menu button (next to home key)
Click on call settings
Check the auto screen off
thank you very much
