hi guys , i know this might seem a strange question but like most my stylus is loose in the holder and i sometimes need to use the keyboard to do most things on the unit and i cant find anywhere that activates the start option on the screen. I have done it by accident once but nothing since. i have checked the manual and it mentions it no where all operations seem to be around the stylus?
does anyone know what key combination it is ?
I have a 02 phone and unlike tmobile which has a one of the 4 buttons on front setup to do this as one of the defaults.
cheers in advance
It should be ctrl+escape on a full keyboard. It might also be enabled by the windows or context menu keys, not sure what your keyboard looks like.
You can use my VJKeypress to get this as well. I think it's keycode 91, not sure, check my website.

Why not assign one of the hardware buttons to do this, each one can have a duel function assigned either a tap or hold, according to the phone, in reality this doesn't work (unless anyone knows different - latest O2 ROM - not messed around with), whatever you set for a tap is also carried accross to the hold function, go to settings and locate the power buttons icon select it, then select the button you want (ok for example) then assign the <Start Menu> from the drop down box, press OK, the device might want a soft reset (mine did when I just tried this), when it comes back up hit the assigned button, and use the four way thumb control to navigate through the menus, it saves sliding out the keyboard and it becoming loose - Mike
cheers for this when i tried to reassign buttons before like the camera it wouldnt let me change them ..i hate the camera button getting accidently caught same as the record one as well.
cheers for the advance will do that would just like to know for my own peace of mind as well how to use the keyboard to do it, it should be possible.
ok little odd one here, when i use the side down keyboard must of the keys work fine but when i press some keys it gives me lots of radom letters
ie:: if i press R i get oiohkjh
anyone had this problem before and any ideas how to fix it
forgot to tell you i am using 2003 but it does the same if i use 2005...
I have a Sprint Touch Pro 2, running the stock 6.5 ROM.
For some reason, a few keys on the soft keyboard all of the sudden got switched around.
The A and Z keys are now on the top row, the Q key is now on the middle row, and the W key is now on the bottom row. And it looks like the "secondary" key on top is still in the right position - there's still a 1 on top of the A, a 2 on top of the Z, etc.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Is there some registry edit I can do to get things back to normal?
Thanks.
I was trying to change to the compact qwerty, and I noticed that the keyboard somehow got set to French.
Not sure why I didn't check that before (I forgot that setting was there).
Stupid me...
Thanks for the help!
I changed from a TILT2 to the Mytouch 3g slide awhile back and the one thing I miss is not having the arrow buttons, especially the backpsace (without deleting). I used a lot for correcting spelling errors in links and in text.
Anybody know of any ways to get a backspace key on the physical keyboard, by an add-on app or any other way?
Thanks in advance...
I noticed that there are a few blank keys on the secondary symbols keyboard. Can these be assigned? Is there an easy way to do this? I have not looked into mapping yet, buy figured I'd ask about a simpler way first.
