Anybody know how to remap the "Windows" Keyboard B - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

It seems that the developer of Wisbar Advance (v cool skinning app) has managed to remap the "Windows" Start Menu button on the keyboard to bring up the Wisbar Advance Cascading Start Menu. Only thing is, I don't want it, I want the original StartMenu back. Any ideas, which part of registry to change etc...????

remap the start menu?

Is there a way (i know there must be ) to remap the start menu icon to open something else in wm5 / wm6 pro? if so, how?
shouldnt it just be a reg hack?
bump......but i think its rather function in coredll, or wherever that function is...
it would be NICe to have wm5newmenu on that damn button imo...
i am thinking about changing image of m$ for something else...and i have almost same problem as yours...it may be possible with ROM kitchen...but..mabye not.
there are apps i have seen, just apps, that seem to replace the start menus with there version of a start menu, but idk how they do it
Hmm, if it is not possible to change the start menu icon functionality, it may be possible to make a workaround (something on the lines of wisbar)..

I've been looking for ages! Only solution I've found is SK Menu. What it seems to do is overlay its own window on top of the Start button, & you can assign pretty much whatever you like to it (Tap & Tap n Hold)

yea i know bout wisbar advance but im trying to find out if u can remap the start menu to the spb menu that comes wit spb shell

Editing the Start Button

I use SPB Mobile Shell and I would like to make it so "SPB Menu" comes up when I press the Start button on the top left hand corner.
Is there a way to do this?
I dont think this is possible, but why would you want to do that, a pop up menu is great in my opinion.
I recommend you to assign the spb menu to one of your hardware keys, like the camera key or something like that,

It is possible - for example QuickMenu can replace the start menu with itself. HTC EnlargeStart Menu does the same. Maybe it needs some kind of registry hack.

I LOVE the SPB Menu and since I use my fingers 99% of the time on my Touch I don't really have a use for the built in Start menu.
I know there has to be a way to do this, I just hope it is a easy one.
I looked through my registry a bit but I didn't see anything that would change this.
It has to be possible.
Is there a way to do a registry dump, perform the HTC Start Menu Tweak and then perform another dump and somehow compare them to see what has changed?
With Wisbar Advance 3 you can map the start button to anything you want.
I installed Wisbar Advance Desktop to play around with when I first got my Touch. I uninstalled it because I didn't like the functionality. After the uninstall I still have Wisbar icons showing up in some of my menu's. There is no way I am going to install one of their bloated products just to do one simple function.
Hi, i am looking for the same Startbutton tweak.
I want to remove the Startbutton AND the word "Start" right to the button.
Wisbar Lite Taskmanager does remove the word "Start".
I'd like to know how this works, and somehow it must be possible to remove or reassign the Startbutton without installing WAD or WA3, a megapackage for only one function.
If someone has the skills to do this and/or write a simple program to make this happen I wouldn't mind compensating them. Either in $$ or Webhosting!
Nothing is being removed in most of these cases, the start button and or title bar is being covered up.

I don't want anything removed, I just want to change the link on the Start menu to point to something else.
bump it up!
I compared the registry with the large menu on and off and this is all I found. Not much help (for me anyway).
BIG START MENU
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu]
"DropDown"=dword:00000000
"Enable"=dword:00000001
LITTLE START MENU
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu]
"Enable"=dword:00000000
"DropDown"=dword:00000000

He says that it's not a registry tweak... maybe those programs relocate the title bar and put themselves in that positions looking similar with different functions... That is the way that evb used to work fullscreen (relocating the title bar, sip and taskbar)...
I finally gave in and reinstalled Wisbar Advance. I would rather accomplish this without using Wisbar but for now it will work.

Touchflo3D softkey remap?

Is there a way to change the softkeys within TouchFlo 3D?
I have the Touch Pro, and with a remap app i can change the softkeys when TF3D is not running, but a s soon as you launch the TF3D the two softkeys are set to "PHONE AND PROGRAMS".
Can this be done with a hack, or anything in the registry?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
regards
Rich
Yes, there is an easy way to do this - though it took me a long way to find it.
;-)
I used the latest Version of AdvancedConfig (v3.2, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151) and changed these settings via Menu -> More Setting -> Key Mapping, namely left and right softkey. In my case I redefined them to iContact and ThumbCal, which are relabeled in TouchFlo 3D correctly and automatically.
Hope this help's you.
Cheers,
Uwe
Woooohooooo.
Many thanks for your help, works a treat.
Cheers

I guess by editing manila files only. I don't know any other solution for this.
BTW, Advanced Config and TouchHD Tweak dont' work for Rhodium Manila, can't remap softkeys this way.
How can i remap the softkeys in rhodium tochflo3d? Is there a solution?
Advanced Config V3.3. Under menu and more settings you will see the softkey remapping menu.

I would like to map the softkey to "PROGRAMS", it there anyone know the path or registry value? Thank you.
Have you guys forgot that there is a search button on this forum?
1. For editing softkeys on the home tab, use either Advanced Config or Softkey Manager (unless you want to edit the registry yourself). SM is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414405.
2. For editing softkeys on the other tabs, your best solution is using SS MaHo. This will not actually change the softkey itself, but it will "overwrite" it with a label so that it changes what the button does. It works just fine. See thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493810.

Touchflow3D + working program changer

I am looking for a solution for changing the programs in TF3D.
I tested already the Alt-tab.exe and the alt-tab in Aebuttons.
If you have 3 programs opened these alt-tab changes only to one or 2 programs.
I mapped the alt-tab to the back-sensor button (right button to "Home").
Does anybody knows a working solution?
Me too!
Furthermore, is there any way so set the taskmanager that comes with HD and is only useable in homescreen on a button, so that it works form any open window?
copy the TaskMgr.ink from windows to \windows\startmenu\Programs - It is not beautyful but it works. I´ve set it on long press phone button - bebause I need all buttons as they are
well the taskmgr.lnk contains the html-help to the taskmanager. if you start the taskmgr.cpl you have only a windoq of the running programs. not a finger-friendly solution.
Yes
I would prefer a solution as is already is on the HD on top of today screen. But I don´t find a way to get it to work on a button.
Hey try this one! I like it
