Soft key in calendar and SMS - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to find a way to change the left soft-key in the calendar from "Day-Week-Month-Year-Agenda" to "New Appointement". I want to do that because I think that it is very complicated to create a new appointement.
Also when you receive a new SMS you have the left soft-key that says "Answer" and the right one that says "Menu". I would like the right one to say "Close" or "Mark as read".
Maybe there is also a way to have the notifications like with a Blue Angel (the notification stay on the top of the screen with button to make actions) ?
Is there a solution ???
Thanks in advance.

This won't give you a softbutton, but it definitely easier to create a new appointment. I think you can assign this to one of the other buttons on the wizard, but instead I have this as one of the shortcuts in cLaunch on my today screen.

Thanks for the advice.
I am still interested in any other solutions....

cutomizing buttons

hey guys,
ok i know how to customize hardware buttons, BUT i don't see the option to change the two "menu" buttons on my vario II from the today screen.
i.e. the bottom menu says "calendar" and "contacts", i want to replace calendar with "new message" for sms.
i remember having done this some time back before my rom upgrade, but can't remember how to do it and can't find the option anywhere!
cheers!

Text Messaging menu after change to WM6

With WM5, the softkeys were
Left softkey: New (text message)
Right softkey: Menu
after upgrading my Cingular 8525 to WM6 it is not that useful:
Left softkey: Delete
Right softkey: Menu
In effect, to create a new message I need to select Menu and then New.
Is it possible to assign New to the left softkey?
oh god yes

It might have been in your ROM!
Mine always had CONTACTS on the left and CALENDAR on the right! BTW: The HERMES has a direct MESSAGING button on the top left anyway, so, what does that matter? Next to you can enable the MESSAGING TODAY PLUGIN or assign / remap the buttons yourself!
This might help. Work on my WM6 ROM (vpG3 v3.62.3).
Start
Settings
System tab
Soft key
from there you can set up you soft keys to run the application you want.
He means with the MESSAGING menu, not on the TODAY Screen. Yes, on today it's Left-Calendar, Right-Contacts.
BUT
We want it back to the way it was on WM5.
Left - NEW
Right - MENU
Please oh Please can someone find a fix for this. Who new the geniuses at m$ could find such a simple way to make daily texting so much more annoying.

Start - Settings - Personal - Soft Keys and you will find the two spots to change what you want to make them.
or if you dont have that option, Try this link and download softkey changer.

Use this....all you do is copy the file in your windows directory. Then, do a soft reset, and now under start/settings/system you have a soft key program. I included the file.

Modding the SMS\MMS Screen

Does anyone know how I might be able to change the default lower toolbar buttons in the SMS\MMS screen? At present the options are "Delete" & "Menu" and I want the 'delete' to be replaced with 'New SMS', it seems daft to have a 3 stage process just to send a quick SMS. A new message menu would be an acceptable compromise but I'd prefer a direct link to an SMS since I use those the most by far.
Are there any registry mods that I can implement to do this?
I'm using the official 6.1 WWE rom by the way.
I use a program called WM5 New Menu and used M2DC to make my left soft key launch it from the today screen. Basically it allows me in one press to create new SMS, Appointment, Contact etc. Its quite configurable.
i know what he wants, and that's not it. isn't there some way to change it within the program?

Contacts on HTC HD MINI

Hi all,
I've got a HTC HD MINI and I would like to go to contacts clicking on just one key. If I want to go to contacts I have to click on "Green" key and then "More" or go to "Start" key and then "Contacts".
Anyone know any software or something like that to create a shortcut to a button?
Thanks.
PS: I also would like to add an invisible X button to my device. I've tried one .cab that I found here on this forum, but it didn't work.
What do you mean by the "Green" key? Which Contacts are you referring to? HTC People or WinMo Contacts?
Anyway, whichever Contacts app you are referring to, you can use Bsb Tweaks to assign the left soft key to the Contacts. One click brings you to that app.
What's the left soft key?
I wanted to put it on the 4th key (the reverse one).
Why don't you just go Settings/Personalise/Home Screen Tabs and move the Contacts tab to one of the first positions ? That way you can open Contacts from the Sense screen, or from any other program by hitting the Home key then Contacts (I know that's 2 presses but it works well!)
But I want the other contacts application. The one that has the phone numbers with the name of the person. And I wanted to put it on one of the keys... and I've got a software to do so, but it doesn't open when I click the key... and I'm not understanding why.
My ROM is the last PT original ROM.
