I've recently been trying to access the favorites section with the firetv remote since my skin does not have a button for it. On the xbmc wiki it says the context button on the remote is supposed to open favorites on the homescreen but for me it does nothing the only way I can get favorites is by switching back to the stock confluence and manually going to the star.
Hmm... It works for me on the convergence skin
I have to report my context button doesn't open favorites either on the stock confluence.
So is there no way to do this. I tried the key map editor to no avail.
The menu button brings up Favorites at the Confluence main screen for me just fine. I just followed the instructions here to manually push an edited keyboard.xml file.

Thanks that worked for me also. For some reason I thought these keypad configs were stock.

I noticed that the keyboard mapping I got off kodi.wiki didn't have fast forward and rewind in it's mapping. I had to copy those from the old one to the new one to get those back.

whats the problem
After I made changes and save them in oldSAP, rebooted, nothing changed.
Ex. Menu - > Show -> CMyapps.
Page 1
ActionURL to live search.exe
Pictures to Chome Live search
Then Menu -> Save -> Yes
Rebooted, and yet Word is still showed on page 1.

have you gone to \Windows\startup and deleted CMyApplication.lnk
or did you download oldSAP Favorites v1.05

you have to reload your homescreen for it to work.
1. go to Settings/Home Screen, choose another home screen aside from the one you are using at the moment, load it
2. do the same process but choose the particular home screen you were previously using
3. done!

Thanks a ton! That worked perfectly.
I noticed that the bar only allow PNG for pictures is that correct?
Is there a way to reduce the number of favorite program tabs down to like 10? In V10 of Ricky's rom he has 20. I'm having a hard time coming up with 20.
Thanks ALL!
Is there an easy way to delete entries so that we have less tabs?

It allowed me to use a .gif as a picture, so I assume most picture files work.
To get rid of the extra pages, use a registry editor and go to HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CMyApplication\ and scroll all the way down to the "Pages" entry. Modify it and delete the page entries that you don't need, leaving a semicolon at the end of the last page. I.E. Page1; Page2; Page3; ---> Page1;Page2;. Reset the home screen theme as usual to apply the changes.
i did this and they still appear on the home page.... as well as not being able to change the 2nd line ie.... edit word document. it reverts back. The first line and remapping worked just fine though.

I also tried to edit HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CMyApplication
"Plugins"
but unfortunately it didn't goes so well, I lost CMusic and I can't put it back. Conversely I tried to remove CAppointments and yet it still shows on the main screen. I tried selecting a different home screen and return to it, and also rebooted, nothing worked.
Somehow these regedits only affect "Sliding Panel" home screen and none of the others. I'm using Ricky's V10 Rom.
With the original notification bar it's hard to go to the power options.
You can't click on the battery icon.
(I know, I can change back to the old notification bar, but that introduces other problems... )
So I was wondering how I could get the power option in my Start Menu.
Because you can only add Programs, not something from the Settings Page.
Install the Topaz Notification Manager, it works for me very well
You can create a shortcut to Powerexe.exe in the Windows folder, and add that shortcut to the Startmenu folder. After that, you can add power to the TFlo3D start menu page.
Fantastic been wondering how to do this thanks.

I don't know if this is different for the Touch Pro 2, but my Touch Diamond only brings up the battery level when "powerexe.exe" is run from within the "Windows" folder. Is there a different powerexe file somewhere else?
It's one and the same.
I'm using TouchOff, besides shutting down the TP2, it can also switch off the screen and perform soft resets. Just use the search function, and you'll find!

Anyone know how to open the phone screen without pressing the talk/send button? I cannot find a way like you can on the Wing. I am unable to push the hardware buttons due to my severe physical disability (Spinal Muscular Atrophy). Thanks in advance for any help!

I've never had a problem opening the screen. I usually slide it open using two hands, both thumbs on the edge of the phone. My thumbs go to the center, so I never press the phone button. That's my personal experience.
I never use that tilt-up screen on it, lol. I have no need for that tilt thing.
perhaps your operator can supply you with a special dialling wand?

Oh, he's cool. Yea, he's a true badass. How hilarious.
Maybe someone could create an app? Something I can add to Start menu or Programs tab.
Sliding the phone open is not an option. It has to be touch activation.
On the Wing "phone" was a program in the start menu that brought up the dialing pad.

Ohhh, I thought you meant slide the screen open, lol.
Hmm, they don't have a shortcut for the phone, anywhere. But, it should be possible to create a shortcut. Lemme visit the file exporer for a few minutes...
You can add Phone to the start menu...
SOLUTION
Create a shortcut:
Go to the File Explorer
Navigate to the \Windows directory on your Device Memory
Scroll down to the file name, "cprog" (use the scrollbar, since kinetic scrolling is too slow)
Right click it, and click copy
Now scroll to the top of that list (use the scrollbar again)
Open the Start Menu folder (your filepath should be \Windows\Start Menu now)
Right click in the empty space, and then click "Paste Shortcut"
Now right click the "Shortcut to cprog" file, and click Rename, so that you can give it a more personable title
Now it's in your Start Menu! You can also add it to your Programs tab on TouchFlo.
Only problem is that there's no icon, but it works, right! (I'll read what was just posted...Beat you to the answer, Leanne, lol)
THANK YOU! Thanks for the solution, worked perfectly. I love my TP2 even more now!
Hi,
I'm using the HTC Sense.
In the "Home" tab there are 2 buttons - "Phone" (left) and "Menu" (right)
Is there a way to modify these buttons?
I've just started using ThumbCal and I want the left one to assign to it.
Thanks.

Settings+
to change the softkeys try Settings+ by Samuel Tee
Thanks for your answers.
fighter7139,
I've read the thread, I didn't manage to get to the "yes, use advanced config - push on menu - more settings - key mapping".
I have Tom Photon ROM.
and I don't understand enough to mess with the reg file..
xda-kungfu,
I've installed the Setting+, and changed the left soft key.
I rebooted twice - but it didn't change.
Are you sure it suppose to work on the HTC sense too?
Thanks again.
I tried also BSB tweaks..
Shaked my HD mini.. But it didn't change..
So why don't you use ACT:

Menu - more settings - key mapping
It's already written.
SORRY, I didn't read it. By the way, I can't assign the right soft key to the camera. Anybody has the same problem?
It's better to set camera on left softkey.
Hi,
I installed ACT and I have no problems with the left softkey but when you assign an application to the right softkey, it appears at the beginning but as you move through the Sense, again seems the Menu right softkey
"It happens to someone else? How do you solve?
Thanks in advance
Try to set it through registry.
HKLM\\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeRSKPath
HKLM\\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeRSKText
Thanks for the reply.
This registry keys says the same I put on ACT but only works at startup Sense. When you move slider "Menu" returns
Disable sense, make a soft reset and enable it again.
There's no way, man.
I did what you say and when I enable Sense again, "Menu" reappeared.
Without Sense it works fine. HTC HD Mini. Version Manila 2.5.20131825.3
Thanks anyway
I don't know something else, but many people say not to mess with right softkey.
Use BSB Tweaks 1.6 to change the left soft key of Sense.
You mentioned it didn't work for you. But do try it again. Sometimes you need to shake a bit more to register a response.
It worked for my HD mini. Worked everytime.
Do try it again.
I found on htcpedia how to change right softkey MENU on HTC HD Mini
The first thing to do is set the Resco Explorer to show hidden files and ROM.
Get the file inside the ZIP that I let you down and copy it to the Windows folder overwriting the existing. Windows warns that it will replace an important file. Just in case I have made a backup before overwriting the original.
You open the Advance Config Tool or SKTools and assign the role you want to replace the SoftKey Menu and Reset.
bye and thanks all for your replies.
Hi , is there any plugin / program that allow me to copy and paste text on webpage or gmail via S Pen? I don't need any other function from S Pen.
There is no need for a plugin or program. This Amazing Phone is capable of doing just what you are asking on its own.
Here's what you need do to copy and paste in Gmail or a Web Page using your S-Pen;
Hold the S-Pen button in, tap at the starting point of what you want to copy (select) and drag the pen to the right a little and lift pen of the screen. You will now see selected text and cursors..
Manipulate the cursors so that the required text to be copied is all highlighted. Once it is highlighted there will be a menu at the bottom of the screen if you are holding the phone in normal position. If in landscape mode it'll be at the top of the screen. Now just click on the copy icon and the selected text will be copied to your clipboard. Now that it is on your clipboard you can paste it where you need to paste it, Gmail, text messaging ect. Hope I helped.

worth noting that text select doesnt work on chrome, but that seems to be an inherent problem in chrome rather than in touchwiz. works on the stock browser

the stock browser has incognito mode because Android was created by Google,though I'm not sure why they're different apps. I would have thought they consolidate it into one browser. the chrome browser seems to be a bit buggy so i switched back into using the stock browser. the stock browser also has pop out mode which is neat, but I'm not sure how to activate it on demand
