Can the hard "enter" button be set to turn on/wake phone instead of small top button? - Touch 3G General

Can the hard "enter" button be set to turn on/wake phone instead of small top button?
has anyone set the hard "enter" button to wake the phone, together with a "slide to unlock" program to replicate how the iphone works? I hate pressing that tiny little button on the top and this would be a great modification... sorry if this has been addressed already - I looked but couldn't find anything on this subject. Thanks

I've managed to set the other hard keys to wake the phone up, however that software can't be fully utilized as it is a Topaz/Diamond2 software, will send it to you, if you PM me yr email.

chek this out

I did that but it is still not disable the short cut in my device.
Any more help?
Last time I checked I think it was Message button and action button. I dotn think this is something u can change. It is a hardware safety feature in case someone where to totally screw up ur alignment, you wont have to hard reset to get it working again.
Cause once the screen alignment is messed up there is no way to get to the alignment app. (without that hardware shortcut)
Later; Lew
P.S. Someone asked about this before, I cant remember what the final verdicted was thoe, search the board.
Thank but Can I change the short cut to somethings else?
Also What is the name of old topic so I can search (I did before making this post but could not fin it)
Thank you guy very much for great help!!!

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.
Paul

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.

press & hold a button to unlock?

I was messing around the button settings, and it seems like the the only button that can do "press and hold" is button 5.
what I would like to do is program the side "ok" button to press to lock, press and hold to unlock. Any registry gurus or savvy hackers here know if this is possible?
TIA
The Mogul comes with the option of using the power button as a "lock" for the other buttons. You can choose when the device is off to only respond to the power button being pressed.
I think what he is looking for is a button method of initiating the "device lock" application that can be added to the Today screen.
The problem with just using the power button is that if you accidentally press the power button then all the other buttons and screen will work. He's trying to actualy lock the device with a button.
you are almost right ebmorgan, except that you CAN map a button to <lock device> under settings-->buttons, but you CANNOT map a button or map the press and hold button to <unlock device>.
I tried AE button plus, it gave me a lot more options button wise, but still doesn't have a <unlock device> function built in.
My bad....I didn't notice you said "unlock". I was think of locking.
spb software makes a program called "SPB Mobile Shell" and can be found here http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/mobileshell/?en
This does exactly what you want! The left softkey will lock the device, and the right softkey will unlock it, instead of hitting cancel on screen or the * key.
Although i run this program, but not this option, is because of the "now screen." Which comes up no matter what, when you wake up the device or unlock it, which kinda sucks for what i want.
anyhow, if it's cool for you, then get it and enjoy!
go into the Now screen settings in mobile shell. You can uncheck display now screen box.
The question remains... is there a way to map a program to the "ok" key on the side of the Titan? It really doesn't do anything and its not in the button options. It would also be nice to have the hold option available to the other keys.
Yep, you can uncheck the display now screen box, but then you won't be able to make the right soft key unlock the device, it goes back to "press cancel or *"

Me too! I'm looking for a tweak that will unlock my device by press-and-holding a button. The default 2-step unlock of Windows-Mobile is so annoying especially during bright outdoors.
S2u2 doesn't work for me because you need to swipe the screen to unlock which is bad for less sensitive screens. And it doesn't have transparency so it covers the current app.

Assigning Back button as OK

hi i want to assing the back button "<--" on the bottom with the OK button. i dont need the back functionality, what i want is to avoid trouble hitting OK on the top every time. someone suggested me AEbutton, that solved my problem assigning the volume button for up down navigation, but i want to assing back button to act as OK.
pl. help
Well, I've got good news. The Back button IS OK. Try it in a Settings dialog, pressing Back *will* save your changes.
You can assign actions to OK with AEBPlus.
This surprised the hell out of me - I only realized this after owning my HD for a month.
It also means that there is no PPC/HD equivalent to the Back button on smartphone devices. I had a Vox before, and was used to the Back button meaning "cancel".
JUst to add a little to that.
Is it possible in any way to disable the volume keys?
I cant stop pressing them by mistake

AE Button plus
then just remap them so they dont work as volume keys on a single press ( i use the long press to make them go up and down, but in rreality i use the slider to actually move change volume so i dont need to even map them to the volume at all)
Ehm.... what is the slider? I read about that also in TouchLockPro and I couldn't realize what it was.

Disable Home-Button if soft-pressed

I don't know why Samsung made the onscreen home button working even if you don't press it and just touch it. So is it possible to "disable" the home-button when I just touch it and make it only work if I press it hard so it gives the force feedback?

You can increase the sensativity of the hard press so it always acts as a press so you know
Go to settings - display - nav buttons and move the slider to more sensative

That's only for a hard press, so when locked, or in full screen for example. I don't think we can disable soft presses generally yet.
ElBeaner: Thanks for your help but thats not what I wanted.
I thought that there is no normal touch on the home button when all the reports came about the new force touch button. I was expecting that Samsung replaced the old button with the force feedback one. But they just added normal on screen buttons like they are on 100s of other android phones. And I really don't see no need for the force feedback button because all it does you can also do with touching the button and not pressing it.
It would be great if Samsung changes the behaviour so that only a real press on the home button is working and not the touch.
Wait so you want the on screen button to only work when its pressed hard? :silly:

And what phones have soft buttons that only work as hard buttons? Zero, stick to phones with physical buttons instead rather than hoping for an imaginary feature.
Actually I like the idea of pressure on the button as an option. We know it could be done if programmed right as the ability is right there, pressure sensitivity is built in under the screen.
This would be such a great idea. One of the reasons I hate onscreen buttons so much is that it's so easy to accidentally miss the space bar and tap the home button instead.

I'd actually prefer this too. It's weird that their whole promotion was around a pressure sensitive home button, but the way they set it up, it literally has no purpose.

You can press it to wake the phone up, you can press it to go home if you're watching a full screen movie or playing a game and the onscreen buttons aren't shown... ya i guess it's useless.
Interesting topic. So why has Samsung included a hard press home button? It doesn't​ do anything.
i would also prefer this , im in the same boat , useing messages app , and having the floating buttons show up is anoying
I'm pretty sure this is how the iPhone 7 home button works. It is not a physical button but a pressure sensitive area where the button used to be. Different actions for different amounts of pressure.
It would be great to have the whole display everytime and if you need the back button and the task manager button you could swipe them up (like on fullscreen apps) and you have always the sensitive home button. That would be 1cm more screen and no accidental clicks on the home button.
I guess that it has a reason why Samsung built a button but doesn't use it for real. And I found one possible reason: If you touch the display above the button and slide your finger to the center of the button you can't press it. You have to hit the button directly to press it.

I agree with the original poster. With the soft touch intact, what is the purpose of the hard press? You can't get to a hard touch without a soft touch so it is pointless, also, I use immersive mode so if I swipe up the nav bar, invariably it's from the centre so I accidentally trigger the home key.

Hard press (3D touch) is to make you always able to go home even when navbar is not present,
As for the rest of situation, soft press is more than enough to serve the function
So I dont really think enable only the hard press is actually a good idea.
