Has anyone remapped the answer button? - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

I have been searching all the forums for an answer with no luck so I am just going to ask...
I want to be able to activate MS Voice Command from the answer button on my wired headset (JAM). I guess that means that the answer button has to be remapped? Is there a program that can do this or do I have to fiddle with the registry? Sorry if the question has already been asked, I couldn't find it.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Matt

hehe, I would like to do that exact thing too....let me know if you find something out.!

The Mobidila.net 2.02 has the ability to assign the answer button to Mobidial...maybe U can look what it change in the registry files...and so U can find out how to change it... :roll:
regards,
Primoz

Thanks for the advice, I will have a look at mobidial. I was hoping to find a program that allows remapping of the answer button just like so many other programs remap buttons 1-5. Idealy a short button press for answer and a long button press for MS Voice Command. My Sony P800 worked that way, which was a nice system. I have been looking around on other forums and I'm surprised that most people are only interested in bluetooth headsets. Personally I prefer a nice sounding set of wired headphones for listening to my ogg files.

Matterhorn, have you found a way to map the headset button? I've alse been looking for ages for this.

Me too! Please post if you found a solution!
Cheers

I think Vito buttonmapper might work.
I can't test it as I'm still waiting for my MDA compct.

Hi All,
I just tried Vito Buttonmapper. Unfortunatly the remapping is limited to the standard 4 buttons you can choose in \settings\buttons.
This doesn't solve the voicecommand-headsetcontrol problem.
I hope someone can tell me otherwise, or come up with a solution, 'cause the voice command control with my headset is the only thing I'm missing.
Thanx for all the information in the forum!
cheers,

HI All,
I just installed MS Voice Command 1.5 on my new Jam and I can't even get the AGC Microphone to stay on "enable" after I select it. Further, in Power Buttons options, I can't find the Voice Command option to assign to a button. What I did was copied the voicecmd file to the Windows\Start Menu so it would appear as one of the options in "Power Buttons"
I can't figure out why it won't keep the settings. After selecting it, I go back only to see the button is back to the default assignment. Please help. I got MS voice Command to work as long as I click on the shortcut I created. I need to be able to map it to a button. Thanks.

Hi Gybanez,
I can't help you with to the point advice, I'd just tell what I did and it worked for my. Hope it'll work for you aswell.
I installed Voice Command 1.5 from my computer. After a soft reset, I could choose Voice Command in Settings/personal/buttons.
I asigned it to the record button, 'cause untill now, I haven't used it. Works really well,
it just doesn't work wirh my headset...
The ACG microphone stays on disable! (Well, the microsoft manuel told me so...)
cheers,
Karolinger

thanks karolinger. I did it again and finall it works. The ACG Mic is disabled but it does work so I won't complain. I still have Blue Angel and I did install MS Voice Command 1.5 and didn't have any issues with it. Also, ACG setting stays on "enable" Thanks for the advice.

Hi gybanez,
Glad I could help you!
Maybe I stupid question... what does the ACG Mic? What chances when it's enabled?
cheers,
karolinger

Want to remap hardware buttons freely...how ? (and some other tweaking-requests)

Does anyone know a registry hack yet for making it possible to remap ALL hardware buttons (or at least the OK button below the jog-wheel, cause this seems to be hard-coded to the Windows-menu) !?
Preferably a reg-hack that (re)enables this options in the regular \Settings\Buttons tab...
Another problem i want to fix (apart from the ROM being immature) is the fact that i have to go all the way into the Bluetooth-settings on the CommManager screen to connect my Jabra 620s in stereo/audio-mode, which is quite anoying and timeconsuming...
Some other strange thing is that when i want use Voicecommand (while playing audio) to either call someone or speak a command to WMP, this will only work when i use VC-assigned button on the device, and NOT with the answer/end button on my headset (wich should be working like the VC-button on device).
Anyone able to help me here ?
PS: i'm quite experienced WM user dating back to the Wyvern/PalmsizePC CE 2.12 devices...but i just can't seem to find my way around these huge registries in todays devices anymore... guess i'm getting old...
Anyone please ...?
I would like to know too. Style-wise, there are a lot of things HTC got wrong with the Trinity. In fact, I found the HTC Wizard better designed.
Damn thing needs IE, Messaging, Comm Manager buttons and a Volume slide but instead it has 2 OK buttons and a jog/dial which I rarely use.
Not to mention how buggy the release ROM is, what with huge delays between standby mode and MiniSD cards requiring re-insertion to work properly.
P.S. It would be nice to be able to change the functionality of the jog/dial wheel to volume control.
Yup - this is driving me nuts too.
I have 7 hardware buttons (inc the power button) on the trinity and I can only map 3 of them from Settings.
It's a real handicap (& Voice Command is conflicting with the voice dial button - or at least that's what I think is happening with my repeated failed installations).
Some wisdom from the forum would be almost as appreciated as a fix
Thanks,
M1

I don't have my Trinity yet, but have you tried some of the 3rd party Button remappers that are available? Magic Button etc.

I got my Trinity last friday and am using a 2Gb MiniSD card and so far no problems with it. I feel no real delay when coming out of standby mode and no problem at all with the MiniSD card, maybe you got a early version of the ROM that contained this particular problems.
I do agree with you with the OK buttons, but i also understand the way they were designed, the button close to the jog wheel is to be used together with the jog wheel so that you can single handedly use the machine.
Lets see if someone suggests a good 3rd party tool to remap the buttons and then everybody is happy ;-)

I am able to get VC to work with call/answer button when using my Motorola headsets H300 and HS805. The phone needs to be out of standby mode ie screen needs to be on. I can't seem to get it to work with my R35 I.tech stereo wireless headset. I guess this could mean compatibility issues between headsets? Does the call/answer button work if you are not listening to music?

Yes...you're right...it does work when the screen of my trinity is on. But offcourse when listening to music the screen is gonna be off...
The button on the headset does activate voicecommand when device is on (ie screen on) and no music is playing. But i'd rather have it understand my commands like "what track is this" while music plays (without having to take out the phone of my pocket).
As for the button-mapping: i'm familiar with the buttonmappers out there, but another application on my trinity is just not what i need... Is there really no way to get to this functionality through the registry ? I've searched quite a chunk of the registry but gave up; i just can't find it...

Precisely: one handed operation... That's what i want, so i want the button next to the jogdial to be the ALT+TAB function (which is available through Spb PocketPlus)...so i want to be able to map this to whatever button i like, not just the 2 options HTC gave me... (i don't count press'n hold as an extra button).
I think it's quite ridiculous to have TWO buttons activating the startmenu, and have them hardcoded to that. What's the point in 2 buttons doing the same thing ?
Being able to change the 'Windows' button woukld also be a fine sollution...
Try AE Button Plus. Your solution will not lie in the registry.

Just tried, it works (AE Button Plus -> File -> Add button)
But i found a little bug, after i used it to swap Right Softkey and Start Menu Button, Start Menu Button works fine (changed to be Right Softkey) but for Right Softkey, no matter how i press it, start menu will not be shown !!!
Because, after i press Right Softkey, Start Menu Button event is triggered, but Start Menu Button is set to be Right Softkey by AE Button Plus, so at the end pressing Right Softkey will be regarded as pressing REAL Right Softkey rather than Start Menu.
The most strange thing is that such bug will not happen when pressing pressing Start Menu Button =.="
Any idea ? How to solve it ?
Thanks in advance

And pressing Camera button, the Start Menu Button event will be triggered. it seems that there're some bugs in "Add button" functions of AE Button Plus

Hi guys,
I'm too looking for a way to remap the startmenu-button for e.g. starting an application. No 3rd party software I tried so far is able to do so...
Any suggestion how to reassign the startmenue button to call a specific application?
Cheers

AEButton Plus maps all but the standby button...
... on my Wizard. Well, it doesn't touch the soft-reset, the camera gets funky when I try to map it, and I can't seem to move the vibrate function off the hold "Comm Manger" Key. Given I've got 50 different hardware button options, (or 37 added if I leave all the default functioning in place) with this nifty shareware (basically fully functional if you want to use it free forever), who cares about the dumb camera button (not in the count above).
My biggest problem is remebering where I mapped it all. My second is making decisions about how to map them.... :|| (that's a repeat sign in music-talk)
You gotta try it. I'd be curious to find out how it works on your hardware.

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?

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 !

cimber
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

Key changes

Hai, just a simple question but I need it so bad.
When my phone rings and I get it out of my pocket I almost always pick it up to early by pressing the left (Awnser) button or rejecting it by pressing the right (ignore/hangup) button.
Is there any way to disable these buttons?
I know, the right button is usefull for stndby but I can miss it. (Phone sleeps in a couple of sec when lock is on)
Is there any way to disable these buttons?
Thanks guys!

Yes there is, but I'm at work so I can't provide a cab. A search should find it for you though. I think InCallSettings might do it, but don't quote me on that.
Thanks, I've found it. (Didn't know the search criteria!)
Thanks Again!

[Q] How do you change default between Voice Dial and Genius? (headset button)

I plugged my wife's wired headset into her MT4G, and when I did the long press for the genius/dialer I was asked to pick between the voice dialer or the Genius button and decide if I wanted one as the default... I defaulted to the voice dialer but it doesn't work very well (it just says "setting up" and doesn't activate)... I'd like to switch to the Genius button (which I KNOW works) but I can't find any settings to change my initial choice?
can someone help please?... Thank you
