I'm using PhamQuang's rom and it workes absolutely perfect for me however, the keyboard when you press a button shows you what button you are pressing is there a way to change this since it seems very slow to me.
When you hold the button ok you need it to select the special character however when i quickly press a button i don't need this.
Thnx in advance!

I've noticed since installing Kavana's 6.1 ROM (great ROM, btw), that I can no longer use my red disconnect button as a shortcut to lock my phone.
In the past, I would just depress the red disconnect button for a few seconds and it would lock the phone, now I can only do this by hitting the left side power button to bring up the quick menu to do this.
Is there a way to get the shortcut back?
Thank you,
Tim
Locking Dash
I have always held down the z key to lock my phone. This works for me in WM6.1
Thank you, never tried that method, the key is smaller than the red disconnect button, but it'll do. - Tim
Strange. It works for me by default and I am using this ROM:
RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_080320_WWE.exe
(apparently this is the same as the 080318 ROM, but with the defaults that he said were turned off actually turned off).
Strange it's working for me now as well.... but yesterday depressing the key would do nothing. Being a Windows OS I should have known I'd need to reboot. ;-)
False Alarm
- Tim
when in doubt.... Reboot!!!!!!!
Is there an auto key lock function or application available for WM 6.1?

Automatic Keylock
My End key (the red button) stops working. Does anyone know how to change the key mapping so that I can use a different button (let say the back button) as the END/Stop button. The phone is working fine however, I can't end the conversation because the button is not working. It's driving me nut. Please help. Thanks

AE Button plus will do it. You can set it to any key you want, with single, double, or triple press, or even a long press. It cost 7.99, but much cheaper than a phone.
maybe I need to go this route. Thanks
Does anyone know which button is which number? Like to change the wheel into a volume control is it key 6?
I'm an idiot... not in the kaiser forum... damn search lol
i really miss hardware scroll buttons.
on the rhodium there are two little side buttons for adjusting the volume. i'd really like to repurpose these as scroll up/down. For example, to work inside a browser. Unfortunately, there is no standard option (i can find) to redefine the purpose of these buttons.
i'm hoping there's another way. eg registry hack etc.
thanks for any help,
Use AEBPlus
I am doing exactly the same thing with my Volume Up/Volume Down, I've turned them into arrow keys. The lack of these is my biggest annoyance with the TP2.
That said, I have noticed a little flakiness - most of the time they work fine, but sometimes I hit them and they don't scroll as I expect. Then a moment later they start working.
Anyway, it's much better than not having them re-assigned.
Incidentally, AEBPlus has a cool feature where you can tell it not to remap the Volume keys when you're on a call, so they can still be used then.
Thanks for the tip, i'll give it a go!
AEBPlus works? I'll try it. heard from another TP2 user that it caused his device to freeze up resulting in a hard reset...

Been OK for me so far
Yes, AEB Plus works (no hard reset), but I can only add the windows button. The <-- (back) button does not work when mapped using AEB Plus.
Also, if you're using the JBed Midlet manager, the arrow keys automatically scroll up and down. It works well with Opera Mini.
AEB plus does nothing for me... i just have a list of buttons I can't do anythign with, a giant memory leak and crashing.

Yeah there appears to be no way to open an entry from the list using touch alone - must be a bug.
Highlight one of the buttons in the list, flip out your keyboard and then press enter/return. It will open the Edit menu where you can assign that button to something.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! lol, I was wondering why people were talking so much about an app that does nothing
Did you guys install to main memory? I had no problems with AEB Plus on my 1.19.707.2 ROM.
I could assign the vol up/down keys and could also add the windows key. It is a bit tricky using the windows key as the first press brings up the programs tab.
I added the back key also, but couldn't get it to work. I didn't touch the send and end keys.
BTW, I used AEBPlus v2661

This all is my biggest concern upgrading from a Tilt.. I REALLY like hardware buttons, and make extensive use of AEButtonPLus as it is...

Press the entry in the list and keep holding for a few seconds more.
I've been using it since I had my touch hd and it works perfectly and I haven't found it to cause any issues.
Personally i assign one volume button to a task switcher (spb ms3 task manager) which makes multi-tasking far easier. You can then map double clicking to the original volume functions and even long hold to something else useful such as comm manager.
Awesome Tip. AEBplus Confirmed to be working fine on TP2 from T-Mobile (still stock rom for now). I made the volume buttons map to up and down like suggested but also made a long hold for volume up do "enter/activate" and a long hold for down do rotate the display.
my phone (telus rom) keeps getting screwed up when I install AEBplus and gets back to normal when I undo it.
I have recently upgraded frm wm 6.1 HTC Tytn II to HTC Touch Pro 2 6.5
I like the new phone but I do not like 6.5 operating system.
The biggest thing that annoys me is that my my 6.1 had "key lock" in settings.
This allowed me to turn on the device by pressing a button other than the power button. I can't do this in 6.5. I dont even have the option. I have to press the power button everytime to wake up the phone. Can someone out there please help me!!! Is there a fix for this somewhere in the registry? If not,
i might consider going back to my solid and more stable kaiser.
Look forward to hearing from you
I think that this program will do the trick. It will let you remap all your hardware keys to the action that you want.

Don't thinks so... unless the app provides this (exit or something) but this is application specific.
Android depends on the back button, and the menu button.
I'll give you a example, i installed android on a Diamond. Now The diamond has 5 buttons in the front, 2 on the side, and one on the top.
The Dial and the other one are pretty obvious. The back key is just that, the BACK key. Now, the HOME key, is the menu key. I was missing the Home key, and really missing, like, how the hell do i get out of here?
Until i noticed, the Power button only powers the phone, it does not powers off.
When the phone is on, it acts as the HOME button.
Hardware keys, are a must on the droid...
You could use atools and reassign the back hardware button to one that works.
