Close SmartKey when Using TomTom? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Is it possible to create a shortcut which first close Smartskey, then Launches TomTom and when you close TomTom activates Smartskey again? Because when you've got smartskey enbaled you loose the capability to zoom with the d-pad in TomTom.

how to make a shortcut on the today-page of my wizzard

Due to long trying and experimenting with my bt gps i lost my shortcut of TT 5 on my today page. Is there anyone who can tell me how to put it back on, beaucouse when i want to start tt5 it's almost impossible to navigate the start menu with my fingertips.
I've allready tried to fix the problem with "settings/today/items", but Tomtom wasn't in the list anymore.
TT 5 starts perfectly from my startmenu, but i want my shortcut back.
Is there anyway who can tell me to solve this :?:
I've got a vario, and am currently running tomtom Nav5.21 on my ipaq, once i get hold of a bluetooth antenna, tomtom will be going on the vario.
This is not an uncommon problem with tomtom. There are however 2 ways arround your problem.
First way is to download the v5.21 patch from the tomtom website and re-install the .cab file, this will mean that tomtom is brought back to its origional settings. And the shortcut will re-appear on the screen.
If you have in any way customised the settings, you may have to set them up again (for example if you are familiar with tomtom, you'll have to turn off the guided tour stuff.) However things like any stored favorites or POI's will be unaffected by doing this, and will show up just like they did before.
The otherway is to go into start > settings > Personal > Buttons. From there you can re-assign one of the buttons to always start up tomtom, or indeed any application you want.
For example on my vario, button 5 is the Comm manager that allows me to turn on and off the wifi / bluetooth. As there is already a little icon at the bottom of the today screen that opens the comm manager I'll be reassigning the button to start TomTom.
In the TTN 5.1 update package are (if i remember correct) 3 cab files. One is just the Today plugin, you can tell it by its name
From TTN 5.21 onwards the plugin is IN the main cab, so you cant use this trick with that one.
the Todayplugin is the same for both versions
Alternatively you can use the HTCTODAY plugin i have modified (in 3 flavours) search on the forum.
Code:
use the HTCTODAY plugin
Searched for that, and this is the only post found.

Mouse emulator

Is there a tweak or program that will turn the four-way navigation button into a mouse, which lets you move the cursor anywhere on the screen? Such a registry tweak or program would let you position the cursor over any dialog box or link and then press the center button or enter to enable that program or link.
There is a program for the Treo 650 that does just this, EzRocker, and I was wondering if it's also possible on the HTC Wizard.
I found a registry tweak (below) that enables this for Internet Explorer, but I would like to be able to do it with all programs.
Enable the 4 way navigation button to allow scrolling in IE instead of having to drag the scrollbar with the stylus with a simple regedit.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\4-Way Nav
Change Value from 1 to 0.
Tulsa,
Welcome to the forum :wink:
Have a read of this:

There were recently 2 posts regarding a mouse emulator. I've posted in at least one of them. Please post back if you have success or failure in finding them...

Found a program that does just that: http://www.bobsoft.com/sphelper/
I've only been able to play around with SPhelper for a few minutes, but it seems to work fine on a Cingular 8125. When SPhelper is running, Smartskey is temporarily disabled (if you are using Smartskey), but that's okay.
Finding SPhelper, a virtual mouse, was a matter of searching with the right keywords. I'd been using "mouse emulator", "mouse input", "mouse control" and "navigation pad mouse" but what did the trick is "virtual mouse." I'm including all these words in my reply in case anyone else searches for this kind of program and uses the same search terms as I did.

smartskey & smallmenu integration

Hello,
I have started using the SmallMenu Plus instead of the windows Start menu and also using the smartskey (left soft key) to trigger the SmallMenu which is working properly. But when the SmallMenu is showing up on the screen and the right soft key is pressed (to close the smallmenu menu/window) the SmallMenu application itself is closed. I understand that the smartskey.ini file has some parameters for ignore application. Can someone enlighten me to what parameters are to be modified to make this work?
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just press/hold the left key to close the menu rather than the right key. I've been using this combo since SmartsKey came out and never noticed the problem! I assume you could add to the Ignore list.
Open smartskey.ini in Notepad and you'll see the section to change, as follows. Just add APP08=SmallMenu or SmallMenuPlus?? Might work...
; if you set CLOSEAPP to 1, the program will hide the following
; apps (by title) instead of closing. Other apps will be closed.
; maximum can set 16 apps
[EXCEPTIONLIST]
APP00=Text Messages
APP01=Outlook E-mail
APP02=Hotmail
APP04=MMS
APP05=Contacts
APP06=Calendar
APP07=Camera

Change Copilot to McGuider

I use McGuider for navigation and removed the Copilot application. I like to see that this change has effect in all options. This means that I like to start McGuider from the Navipanel. Also I like to start McGuider (instead of Copilot) from the Footprints application. Wo knows how to achieve this?
