When I push the "message" + "ok/close" buttons at the same time. It will align my Wizard Pocket PC sceen (It thing it is a default short cut or something) I want to disable this align screen shortcut. Is there a way for me to disable this align screen short cut? I don't want it in my wizard. Thank you very much.
:wink:
Try changing button assignments in settings\buttons - my message button is changed to media player and i cant get the align screen to appear

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!!!

Any ideas on how to get the light button working on a jas-jar. Mine has not been working since the start and I've tried everything. The button Im talking about is the first from the right close to the infrared port on the outside of the device. It is supposed to turn on the flashlight but when I press it nothing happens and it doesnt even show up in the buttons applet in WM5.
Actually that button doesn't turn on the flashlight, though some here have tried to come up with a hack so that it would. I don't know if they were ever successful with that.
That button turns on the screen backlight when it has timed out but your device is still turned on. It's not the most useful button, which is why folks were trying to come up with a hack to make it more useful, for instance to turn on the flashlight like you wanted to.
Maybe if someone has had success, they will chime in here.
Change the button
Attached is a cab file allowing you to make use out of the light button to anything else :lol:
When yuo say anything else, does that include controlling the flashlight? Either way, thanks for the file.
Would be nice if one could assign it to turn on the keyboard backlight.
There is no option to adjust the sensitivite of the light sensor for the keyboard, and i think that it kicks in way to late.
Find my self holding the finger over the sensor and hitting a button to make it light up.
Any one aware og a possible Reg Hack to make this option appear in the Assing Button list?

why dont u just change the option in the settings\buttons\backlight and take the tick off the box, and it works like a charm. everytime u press a key it lights up, sorted, and it doesnt affect the battery at all really
@Elmo
Well i didn't use that choise because i don't have any car charger yet. (Waiting for the Brodit kit)
I want to preserve as much battery as possible.........as you already know, this baby can eat your battery pretty fast............

Is this the same as changing it manually on the registry?
Yes, it's my CAB file I posted a little while back that adds a registry entry so that you see it listed as "Button 5" in the Buttons setting applet.

Isn'it available for the Wizard too ? ...
I wrote a very simple script that turn on the camera and press the flash button.
I use the flash key and ms voice command to start it
you need to have MortScript installed. (include with this package)
A very simple question from a new owner -- where are the buttons defined that are assigned in Settings - Buttons? I don't see them labeled as "Button 1", etc in the User Manual.

On your HTC Universal, go to:
Start>Settings>Buttons
From there you can change the assignments of the buttons.
Ok. I have found the 2 keyboard keys that are buttons 1 and 2, and the 2 external buttons that are buttons 3 and 4.
I must say that button 1 is not very useful for voice command, when the device is closed. I guess I could assign it to button 4 or button 5 with the registry hack.
On the supplied "headset", there is a microphone with a button on it.
- What does that button do?
- Is it possible to use it for Voice Command?
(I guess for that to happen, it first needs to be recognised as an assignable button in WM5).
The backlight button cab file is working. Now I can reassign that useless button becomes the OK button. Very useful when use it in the tablet mode. But I need two more buttons to use for the softkey. I have use the record button for the left softkey and have no more button for the right softkey. Any suggestion?
One more thing, the script for enabling the flash light does not work. It turns on the camera, but the flash light remains off.
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.
Hey all you guys at XDA Developers! There's an awful lot of you that have created some awsome apps! I have usued alots of them, and really enjoyed them. I was hoping that someone would want to take on this project. I'm hoping someone could create an app to have a dual purpose button to take the place of the start button icon in to top left corner. I'd like to be able to push the button once to put the device into sleep mode. The second would be to hold the button down for a second or so for soft reset. I thought on the soft reset a small screen could pop up saying "Do you want to soft reset yes or no?" Also, the button could have a couple of color choices to go with peoples themes. Like "sunny127" made the ariel battery to replace that symbol and not the complete start menu. It would also be nice if both options were on all screens. So if your listening to radio or playing music, you could turn the screen off or if the screen freezes on you, you can soft reset. This is somewhat similar to http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-pocket-device-power-manager-v1-0.html this app. But it does not always go with everyones themes. And really not quite in the right place. Thanks for looking. I hope some one might be up for the task. Thanks for all that you guys have done. T M Z.
No one Maybe
I will pay? Some one to make this app. for me please...
bump...bump...
Not a bad idea, personally what I'd like to see the most would be the restart functionality added to the power button.
Now if you're talking about a button on the screen which can put the system to sleep or implement a restart well, I'm not interested. I've got enough taking up my screen real estate. I do believe I've seen a small app for the sleep side of it though... might google it.
Thanks for the input.
No one at all.
I believe wisbar advance 3 by lakeridgesoftware.com does this. I have my clock mapped to soft reset, ect.

You can use the new FTouchFlo, it enables "corner" buttons. When tapped you can launch a program or do a system command, such as rotate screen, turn off, or whatever you want.

Do you have a link?
It's now called FTouchSL, it's not free, but it's totally worth it. You can also open apps (or do a command) with a simple swipe. Not to mention you can add smooth finger scrolling to any app with the flick-and-scroll feat.
Thanks. Ill take a look.
get the softreset executable from the PHM tools package (search), place it win \windows and assign it to the PTT key as hold. I prefer to use this for a sleep function, such as when listening to mediaplayer.

Hi all, uhm I'm having a little problem with my X1.
I can't assign any buttons anymore in settings -> Buttons
I can actually ASSIGN the left key or right key, but it will reset back to old settings when I do that. Now I have assigned:
Left key: turn screen
right key: today screen
And I also now see 4 options named ''knop'' (Buttons), but I think they didn't used to be there in the first place.
Anyway, whenever I change the right or left key (mostly the right key because I'm very happy with the turn screen assigning) to another option. And press 'ok', the button will(!) get that new option. But whenever I restart the device (or I guess even when time will last) the right button will reset to the 'today-screen' setting.
I don't know how all this could have happen, but I think I installed something wrong. I did install TF3D hd (manilla) as a panel. And after that more programs, I guess somewhere in that time this button assignment setting got cracked up :S
Is there anyway to get rid of the 4 ''knoppen'' (buttons) and be able to change the left and right key properly again?
Regards and many thanks to the one(s) being able to help me!
It's the Touch Flo software which restores the softkeys, a search would have solved this for you.
Thanks for your reply.
So you're saying that if I uninstall Touchflo3D from my X1, I will get my normal settings back without difficulties?
Regards
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
