How do I remap the PocketIE button on Exec/Jasjar

Got my new XDA Exec today. Keyboard has a button with the Internet Explorer icon on. When I press it I'm taken to http://pda.o2.co.uk/ which is about as much use as tits on a kipper.
Is there any way to reprogram this key to something more useful? Like Google or something? It doesn't appear in the list of programmable buttons in the control panel Buttons applet.
Perhaps it's a registry entry. If so, can anybody suggest a (free) WM2005-compatible registry editor?
TIA

Not sure about the Exec, but this was the registry edit for the JasJar:
Change hardware PIE behavior:
Go to - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\OEM\Keybd
Change the string called PieHomePage to the website address of your choice.
If you don't want it to do anything but go back to the spot in IE you left off -
Just edit the dword so that it is blank.

Bonza! That looks about right. Thanks for the info, galt. I'll check it out when I get into the registry.
Now, I just need a registry editor for WM2005. Can anybody suggest one?

Tre. It's freeware.

Nice one! Thank you galt and lautunno: I've installed Tre and fixed that registry value and it's sorted! Thanks for your help.

Click to expand...

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

Button4 (Hold)

Does anyone know how to configure a key different from Button4 to manage the "Hold"? i.e. create Button5 (hold)
Thankyou

I too would dearly like to know this - it must just be a reg setting if various programs can map to other Button (Hold) positions.
I found a program called Vito ButtonMapper, but I figure if there's a free way to do it xds-dev will know

WM5 Softkey menu

just want to know, if I want to add some shortcut to menu softkey, How do I do that. For instance, when I use the phone program, there are two softkey menus that are available. The left side is Contacts and the other one is Menu, I want to add my shortcut program inside that menu. Which registry I have to find? Thanks

I don't know which are the registry keys, but there are a couple of programs to do that. Try KeySwop for example.

soft key cpl.
or
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113]
@="anything_you_like'"
"Open"="\"\\Windows\\pocketcm.exe\""
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
@="anything_you_like"
"Open"="\"\\Windows\\pocketcm.exe\""
if you need TWO instances of wm5newmenu for EACH softkey, you need to hexedit wm5newmenu.exe AND its cpl...then assign each instance(of wn5newmenu.exe) to appropiate softkey.

try searching for advanced config tool or just search key mapping

Advanced Config Tool (and other key mapping tools) generally don't affect the softkeys in the Dialler.
There is a registry key that should change Video Call back to Contacts:
HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\LSKContact
Change the DWORD value to 1
Or use the cab in THIS POST, which does pretty much the same thing
