Patience....it can take some time to get an answer, and you will win no friends by posting things like this. Also, there are MANY threads similar to this already.
I do not think it is possible to have the volume keys do one thing (track change) when the screen is off and another (volume) when the screen is on, but cannot say for sure.
That being said, something like what you are asking is possible. You can use a button mapping program like AE Buttons Plus (free, google it) to map a long press of your volume buttons to up/down arrows, and this will change tracks when screen is off. You can map single press of these buttons to volume up/down. Or you could do the reverse (single press change track, long press volume). Either way, the keys will always control volume in call.
I recommend messing around with various combinations until you get what you want. Also, try a search and see what others have done.

sry for that, wasnt meant to offend anyone!!! =/
and Thanks for that tip!
//EDIT
i just tried it now and it does work!

Hi
I am not entirely sure, but if you use S2U2 to lock your HD the volume keys will automaticely work as you wanted them to be as soon as you start your TF3D player and let the focus on it in TF3D. So in other words just start the player and lock the screen. Ready to go .
Hope you understand what I tried to explain. Best is, if you try it for yourself. Just search in the forum for the program S2U2.

No problem Just thought I'd let you know since you appear to be new. Good luck!

I have this function. I have slide to lock and AEBplue installed.
AEBplus I have set single click as arrow down and up and double click as volumn.
When it is on the music screen, one click of the volumn lets me scroll up or down when the screen is off...

change JogWheel behavior

Hello,
Just got my TyTn and got a question.
If i got a long email (about 34k just plane text) this is a lot of text.
With my tytn and the jogwheel it is possible to scroll down a page (or scroll up a page of course)
I was wondering, is there a way to make this shorter, so that the jogwheel doesnt schroll a complete page, but a half a page or maybe just 3 lines.
When i read a complete page the backight of my tytn turns dark.
Reminder: i do not want to change the settings in backlight! this is exactly the way i want it, but when i scroll more often the backlight stay on.
Please help
I hope it is possible.

Been playing around with my new TyTn also. I'm about to install all the software I had on my Wizard, when I was using my Wizard, Tweaks2k2 had an option for smooth scrolling, I'll see if it will change anything.

Make sure you turn off the volume adjustments that are assigned by default to Button #4075. After doing this my buttons function normally allowing me to call the start menu from the side button and the volume calls are eliminated.

I use the latest AEBPlus. If you use the add button function you can add the OK buttons and retain the start menu actuation via the side OK button while making those buttons actually close applications.

Hmmm, strange. i can't seem to find that option under options. We are talking about options in AEBplus right? Only thing that says volume on it is "restore volume slider". Is this the one I should uncheck all items?
Thanks for helping out dude.

That's the correct name. I was coming from my memory. There are three options in there make sure none are checked.
Thanks for helping out aadadams. Still having problems though. After a while the windows button won't open start menu and neither will ok button on the side of Tytn. Too bad, I really liked the function to be able to really close programs with hardware ok button.
Not entirely related but similar, I was wondering whether it is possible to get the scroll wheel to scroll quickly through the contacts list using the 'big letter' lookup? I know of a couple of people who say the phone has randomly done this for them but they can't figure out how.

I do not have a problem with the side button. When pressed while on the today screen it launches the start menu. How are your buttons mapped? Have you assigned multiple functions to these buttons that fail over time?

Nope, only thing I've done is add button and pressed ok hardware button. Then I mapped it to close active program or whatever the term is.
It shows up as button 4075 I think.
Wierd, I did basically the same thing with that button but I remapped several others to extend their fuunctionality. I have never had that happed. My next question is what other apps are you running especially immature apps that may cause the conflict.
Hmm, not running that much else. Wisbar advance and pocketbreeze. That's about it.
I do not use Wisbar apps and sine it does make changes to native start and ok functions it could be the problem. Run without it for day or so and see what happens.
With only wisbar and no aeb+ everything has been ok, will uninstall wisbar and try only aeb instead.

remap volume keys

I've searched the forum and couldn't find anything to do it. But I seem to be pressing the volume keys all too often. And I wonder if I can
a) change it so it only affects the volume if I hold it down
b) can remap them to do something cool and useful rather than change the volume (which I only ever really want to do during a call, and I can't see the screen then anyways.
BUMP
What I really want to do is use them to scroll in the browser.
try this: AE.Button.Plus-v2.6.3
it'll work great!

I agree with TheOne_
Iv been using this software for a while and it is very powerful indeed.
You can assign a single button to do three different things with 'AE Button plus'.
Try it...

Assigning Buttons

Okay, I can see that I can assign long-press Send and End keys, but I want to assign a function to the Back key (short press) - can it be done?
since i come from trinity - which had the scrolling wheel - I'd like to replace the volume buttons with "almost equivalent" functionality....possible at all? don't know...
I'm not sure that Volume slider has been mappable on any of these devices. Previously I used SPB PocketPlus to map buttons, but on the HD the poplists in the setup don't work so I can't try it...
I am currently using AEBPlus to assign the buttons.I was able to map volume up, volume down and ok buttons to various functions.But unfortunately I am unable to map the HOme button.Can anyone let me know how to assign some functions for HOme button using AEBPlus please?
regards

Brilliant! AE Button Plus works perfectly, OK=Back. I love this site...

You don't need to ask the same question wherever you go and also create a thread for that!

i see what you mean. I just figured it might not get read if here at the end of an older thread... hehe you mods notice everything ;-)
Can someone tell me if AEBPlus could reassign the phone on and off buttons too? I would like to use these buttons for other purposes and just use the screen to operate the phone, if possible.

Could you explain how to configure to apply to on off button.
Aside from that, does someone know how to get "long" working?
It tried to give the "Back arrow" additional functions.
1,2,3 times work fine, but long does not.
Also what is the default action of "Back arrow"
I do not find it on the list? Which number
So I could configure 1 times with default action
and 2 and 3 with something else.
Home button on AE plus
Has anyone found the home button "name" in AU Button plus yet?
This thread mentioned the name for the "back"-button is "OK" in AE button plus and that does work. (except foor the long press option, that I could not get to work, but double tap works fine)

pzucchel, I'm with you! I've realised that I actually used the scroll wheel on the Trinity much more than the D-pad, so AE buttons is a godsend!
I've got volume up/down to become arrow up/down, but how about the Trinity press-to-select on the scroll wheel? I can't get the long press on the vol buttons to work otherwise it'd be perfect...
What version of AEBPlus are you using?
I installed AEBPlus 2.6.3 to enable turning the screen while pressing the volume up button.
This version is a 14 day trail version, there is however a freeware 1.0.1 version but that one is not officialy supporting the Blackstone.
Which version are you using? I find $14 a lot for changing the behaviour of one key...
AEButton will NOT stop working after 14 days, and all the functions you really want will still be there
What is the difference between trial and registered version?
Two things only:
1. Splash screen appears during device starting up.
2. "Action list" is blocked in trial mode

Good to know! Didn't see that when reading the website...
Anyway - is there an easy trick to assign the "volume up" pressed for >1 sec to rotating the screen to landscape (270 deg) and portrait?
/me is thinking of a registry tweak...
I just got a Touch HD and installed AE Button Plus and it works great for assigning different tasks for the button below the screen.
However I have not been able to find a which button in AE Button (if any) that corresponds to the Home button. Has anyone else here been able to assign any tasks to double-clicking the Home button?

OK, I can see that you want to push your own solution but as far as I can see it does not support the Home button either. Also it supports a lot fewer actions than AE Button Plus does.

Disable volume buttons?

Hiya ppl
I was wondering if anybody has made a program that makes it possible to disable the volume buttons as i often mis-touch em (And it feels like even a very slightly touch makes em react)...

Try AE Buttons Plus. You can unbind the volume buttons, and it's free.

It doesn't work for me. I have version 2.6.6 and i set the volume buttons to "Unbind only" but nothing happens, buttons still work. What am i missing?
copy the attached dll to your HD's windows directory, overwriting the original one - you have to use resco explorer or total commander to accomplish that. Then map a key in AE buttons for locking the device - voila, your done.
S2U2 will disable the vol rocker while the phone is on standby/locked, so they will only work when you're using the phone.....which would make it unlikely that you'd hit them accidentally
hope it helps
I looked for similar topic but didn't find it,I was wondering if anyone knows how to turn off that iritating sound when pressing volume buttons ?
I installed volume keys and the sound wasn't there anymore but after that I couldn't use scilorsleo camera anykey which makes it possible to take a photo with volume buttons
anyone has a solution?
I use AE Button to disable the volume buttons for a single press. But then also set AE button to alter the volume up/down when held for a long press. So if I do want to change volume I just do a long press on either button

Excuse me I am relatively new here. What do you refer to as the "AE" button? I keep my Touch in a holster and when I attempt to draw it out to answer I keep hitting the Vol rocker changing the volume settings - very annoying. From what you say this may help as it would be a single press, although probably a long press. I wouldn't mind disabling the vol rocker buttons as I just as easily use the volume settings to change vol anyway - but I hate altering (hacking) the normal operating system to do it.
i have similar things i have disable volume buttons.
how to fix it?

Turn off side buttons

Hi guys, I'm having troubles with one of the functions of the volume buttons on the side of the phone. When the phone is locked and someone rings me when I press either up or down I put the phone in silent - I want this thing off, it is pretty easy to accidently press it and miss a call - I did it a lot! Any help, please?

Take this one "AE Button Plus" : http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php

Thanks, mate! Is this program confirmed to work on touch2? I've read somewhere that it can mess all of my buttons if it is not designed for my device or something like that.
EDIT: Okay it works, but is there any app or registry that can allow me to turn off only the function "Mute" when someone is ringing? This things shuts down the buttons completely and I don't have a volume control when I'm in the windows

It works on my Touch2 perfectly !
Just a hint, I have only disabled the "volume-up" button. If you press "volume-down" first, then "volume-up" works as usual !

hello,
I have a very similar problem (using Touch2, T-Mobile, German version), although in may case the Volume Up button seems to dismiss the call (the caller is rerouted to my mailbox).
What I want is: simply deactivate the Volume Up button when the device is locked.
I read much about AE Buttons Plus, however I also read much about this app using up battery, and I don't want that. I really ONLY need this single feature, so I don't want to use a bloated app which cooks coffee, washes my cloths and so on... you know what I mean.
Anyone knows how I could do that? Is there a reg key or a tiny app just for this?
Or can anyone at least tell me how I can use AE Buttons Plus without the battery draining?
cheers,
Saiba
