Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Under settings buttons... always worth switching off and restarting then if that does not hard reset.

same problem here........................probably you installed another key mapper too? (AEBPlus).
It seems a hard reset is the only solution, or somebody could post the registry entry where this key map is defined!?
TIA
Yep put AEBPlus in didnt like so i uninstalled it now no comm manager Ahhh!!!!
After uninstalling AEBPlus, you keep stuck with only "4 buttons", at least in the System Settings. Happily everything keeps working...............expect the CommMgr button.
Either somebody posts the correct reg-entries for this key, or you have to do a hard reset.
I think it might be solved if you place the original files back into: \Windows\AppButtons
Maybe somebody can post a RAR file of that folder?
Second thing, I found the keys in the register. They can be found here:
Mobile device\HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
You will see that the 4 keys are there left by AEBPlus. The missing keys should be here when you have a working Wizard
Hope someone can post the keys and values aswell?
I had the same problem. The registry values in this post will restore function:

You have to add a string to the register. Then give that string the right name and value
AEBPlus was completely rewritten recently. New version will not harm any application buttons ever, compatible with almost any WM 2003/2003SE/2005 device and has a lot of new features

Many a dialers are proposed : PhonePlus, PhoneExt or MobiDial.NET...
These dialers proposes a mapping on the green key , but this mapping is purely applicatif that it is an executable charged in memory which makes this mapping.
And well here an easy way so that the dialer by default is your dialer preferred and more that which is integrated... For that it's necessary to use an editor of register to the image of PHM Regedit or Resco Regedit then to go to the key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\RAI\:MSCPROG
and modify the value "1" and take the path of your favorite dialer, for example to MobiDial.NET the value is "\Program Files\mobiDial\mobiDial.exe"
can this same philosophy be used on other hardware buttons? :lol:
Well, I've tried this way, trying to assign the button to phoneplus (even though they already did it) but it didnt work!
I even tried to assign it to the "calc" just to see if it really works, and again nothing.
Are you sure?
Did anybody got that work?
Didn't work for me too.
Shame :?

any thoughts on mapping the green button? i need it
food for thought maybe its not regulated by a "single" registry key.
well the general idea as i understand is that the dialer "cprog.exe" gets loaded in the memory firct probably somewhere in the registry rather than the startup, then the green button gets mapped into it also somewhere in the registry, now if you check this link

you might get some understanding to my idea, please help me with this thing am determined enough but need some experts opinion
I have just got my first Windows Mobile 5 Device, a MDA Vario. Its great, but Ive put Photo Contacts Pro on it, and changed the home screen soft key from contacts to Photocontactspro. Thing is, the app name is too long and gets cut off to "photo con"
Is there anyway to rename this softkey?
Thanks
You can do that in the registries:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112 - right key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113 - left key
Values:
Default=Button label
Open=command
Cool, thanks
Hmmm
I wonder if you can help me.
I tried VITO ButtonManager and it has well and truly screwed up my softkey definitions for the Today Screen.
The right one seems to change what is does and the left one does not work at all.
I have disabled Button Manger but still cannot get the softkeys to work again.
How would I reset them to their original values?
Please bear in mind I have NEVER changed a registry key before?
Robin
Remapping SoftKeys
Robster, there is a complete incompatibility between our Wizard and VitoButtonMapper soft.
For interested people there is a specific soft to change Right and Left key applications (for instance, the right softkey is now launching TomTom instead of Contact).
Juste time to find where I may share this soft with you !
You could just follow the registry tweaks up top
It's not much more difficult from using Windows Explorer and notepad
the button thats on the upper left side of the 8125 isn;t working anymore!?
when i press it, nothing happens, it normally brings up an option to let me enable or diable stuff. wtf is going on?
thanks
PS. i installed AE Button Plus, but i didn't know how to edit my buttons and removed it, so i think installig it removed that wifi button.
i need help! thanks
came someone help? i really want to restore this badly, i hate pulling out the stylus to enable my wifi and blue etc... (i have big fingers, i can't press the little icon on the lower right hand corner)
that button bought me straight to the menu.
i don't know what the butto is called, but it's located on the left side, and its on the the upper left.
thanks!
Hi, yes its called the comm button - button 5.
Try - goto settings\buttons and see if you can reassign button 5 to comm.
If button 5 has dissappeared from the list then ae button plus has screwed it up - like it did for me and I had to hard reset - darn!
pwwwha! nooooooooooooo!
hard reset!???
is there anyway i can hard reset, and still restore all my progs and info etc...
thanks
I am not saying you have to do a hard reset - try the other advice first.
There is possibly a registry tweak to correct it - but i dont know it. If you have to hard reset this advice will make it easier.
Create backup of windows\start menu - most programs that are on the storage card dont need a reinstall.
Create copy of pim.vol in the root directory of the device - contains contact and appt information. After flash change the new pim.vol to pim.vo and copy and paste old pim.vol (use total commander or gsfinder file explorers for this) and soft reset and you will have info back.
Create backup of windows\favorites - for all your internet favorites.
You can backup your voice tag database between hard resets by copying the file CommandModel1.bin found under the windows folder to your pc or to the memory card. After rom upgrade copy it back to your windows folder and all your voice tags are back!
That will make restore a bit quicker than otherwise.
Found the registry key - if you can check this - HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\keys\40C6
40C6 is button 5 and if not there needs to be added. There are a few dwords that will need to be added as well if deleted.
thanks! i found it, but how would i add it? thanks in advance!
woo hoo! i got it to work! thanks!
do u know any other keys?
i want the volume up and down to be D left and right.
Hey guys hope everyone is doing ok today, just got a quick question about the soft keys. I have just flashed my ROM to RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_G4_WWE its an excellent rom and would recommend it!
Just one thing tho i have CoPilot the sat nav prog on here and i like to set it to the left soft key so i can just load it quickly. Since i flashed the ROM when i press the left soft key it says "error opening shortcut or locating target filename" just wondering if anyone knows how i could fix this?
Many thanks
More info required.
How to you set the softkey? program or via registry hack? value?
well i set the softkey through the little softkey thing in settings and co pilot was in the list ok it just doesn't seem to work when i click the softkey. Is it a reg setting i need to change?
That is weird, the softkey software should work perfectly. Unless you move the thing away from the application start menu.
Anyway, take a look at the wiki at
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
On the section "Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys"
For your case, set it up using the Softkey application, and go into the registry (with any reg edit software) and look at the value of
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open
See what is the value being set to.
If it is set to the shortcut, try setting it to the exact EXE file.
OK! I was trying to get TF3D 0.6.7 to work and it was giving me an error. There are 2 fixes posted by the author. I tried the first one with no luck, the second one worked great!
The first one is to go to HKLM/Driver/Touchpanel and make a new Dword.
For reasons I cannot explain I did not think to back up my registry! Now, the touch screen won't work except for the task manager arrow. Nothing else no matter how hard I push or with what.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it or does can someone possibly make an exacutable registry key I can launch or install some how? I thought you could use PHM from the desktop as well. Any registry editors that will work through active sync on the PC? If so, what is the value supposed to be and what kind of key is it supposed to be? Thanks in advance.
soft reset?
have you tried a soft reset?
If everything else fail, you should maybe just re-flash your phone.
Before flashing try to hard reset.
Press and hold VOL.DOWN Button & ENTER Button
And while holding press the soft reset button (under the stylus)
When a message appears on your screen u can release the
Volume down button and enter button.
Use "Mobile Registry Editor" to change the setting back while the device is recognized by ActiveSync. (You can hit Cancel on the ActiveSync pops and it will let you use the device in Guest mode)
You can also use some remote control utility like MyMobiler or EveryWAN to use the device through the computer.
MyMobiler should definitely help. Try it out..
