Start bar on keyboard

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.

Rebinding sms/email keyboard keys?

Anyone know if its possible to rebind the sms/email keyboard keys somehow?
As an ssh user, I miss the control and tab keys on my touch pro. I'd rather rebind these 2 useless keys into something far more practical.....
Thanks!

Yeah I really want an Escape key for the same reason.
What SSH client are you using? Putty? My Func key is weird in Putty, when pressed it stays on even after another key is hit, and you have to press it three times in succession to turn it off.

token2shell, it's the best one i've ever found for wm.

Just tried editing the eT9.Rhodium.0410.kmap.txt files in \windows but no luck, changes didn't seem to take effect even after a soft reset. Tried modifying all the files as well as updating the registry.
Found the info here:

Click to collapse
You're right, it's way better than Putty. Thanks very much!
Incidentally I tried the remapping with AEBplus but couldn't get it to work.

'OK'ing and 'X'ing an application from the keyboard.

I find it frustrating when I've been working in the keyboard that to accept it or close it down that I have to move up to the top right of the touch screen.
Is there a way to do it from the keyboard (my old mda 2 had its own ok button). Assuming not can code be written that does the job via the Fn key. Say Fn then X.

you can probably use rhodium keyboard controller and map something. everyone swears by that program but i never got it working. the att version has an ok button anyway.

Of course the hardware button on the front of the phone does "Ok" but if you want to specifically close, yes you need something else.. I still use AEButtonPlus myself for stuff like that, but the keyboard controller would likely be able to do it too.

"Rhodium keyboard controller" works excellent!
And yes, it is possible to remap so that a button works simililar to an "Ok"-button. I use the letter-symbol-button as "Ok". The Ok often works as closing the program ("x").
I haven´t found anything corresonding to "x" but haven´t really missed it either with the above solution. But it would be interesting to know it there i such a function.
Good luck!

PocketGBA?

Can anyone get this working? I have the one that is just the .exe without installing through the .cab, and I can open it fine but when mapping keys I can't choose which keys to map because when I put my TP2 landscape it doesn't let me decide which key to map. Does anyone know how to map keys on PocketGBA? I have KforRaphael so I don't have the problem of all keys mapping to the same thing.

There's a cab floating around that disables xt9. If you use that it might work. It did for me with several emu's.

Would that fix the problem of me being able to map the correct keys? When I try to click the buttons to map, it doesn't click that specific button on the screen, almost like I had aligned the screen totally off.

Any way to remove configuration button from keyboard?

Is there a way to remove the configuration button from samsung's keyboard?
I like this keyboard, but I keep hitting it by accident. It should be better another button that doesnt change the screen, something like other input button as comma for example.
Is it possible or just changing keyboards?

HAH! I've configured my keyboard more times than I've hit space!
