Is there a solution to map the OK button to an app which closes programs?
AE Button Plus does not allow to map the OK button.
It does, you select 'File' then 'Add button'. Press the OK button and then 'Add key' and it will be added to the list where you can assign it to an action.

OK.
But which one is correct: #4075 or #405C?
Sometimes I get the first one sometimes second.

I beleive pqzii is a good program to map the keys, but unless someone posts a manual as to how to use it, this program will render useless to newbies. Of course, those who are very knowledgable in programming will be the only ones benefiting from the hard work of the writer of this program.
Bottom line, how to use this program? Can someone who knows how to use it be kind enough to give us, newbies, some help?
Personally, I am using the X button program and it is great. I like to map the bottom OK button to become the X button to close programs from running in the background.
Thanks in advance to those who are willing to help.
My experience is :
1. Go to the install folder of PQzII with file explorer (picture 1)
2. Choose PQzII setup.exe (picture 2)
3. Tick the "Use OK button(Task Close/All)" checkbox under Windows option (picture 3)
4. Untick the " Use this function" checkbox under Icon option (picture 4)
5. Create a shortcut to Windows/Startup folder (picture 5)
HI blcc:
Thanks for the above. But the OK buttin still does not close the program - as I click it, it seems to have closed it but I looked at the Memory to find out the programs running - the one tat supposed to have been closed is still there.
BTW - One more newbie question about step 5 - how do your create a short cut to the Windos\StartUp?
Thanks again.

I can really close the program with OK button after apply the setting. For creating a shortcut, I use resco file explorer, tap and hold at the item and a pop up menu will appear. Choose "cut", and go to the statup folder, tap and hold again and choose "paste shortcut". That is.
Hope you understand my poor English.

Hi Blcc:
Your English is very good and it makes mine pale.
Thank you once agin, my OK button now closes running program and there is nothing is the background.
I hope others who are hoping to utilize these two programs will happen to read this thread.

4075 is what mine is set to.
PQzII was a bit buggy for me.
is there a way to have exceptions to closing the programs?eg:i like messaging and contacts to always be running in the background so if i press the ok hardware button it only minimizes messaging and contacts while really closing the other applications.

Is it possible to actually 'close' programs using the internet explorer hard button?
I have SPBPlus installed, and the 'x' button is set to actually close programs rather than minimize then. When i assign the (ok/close) behaviour to the internet explorer button, and then use it to close a program, it only minimizes it.
So basically, is it possible to make my internet explorer button actually close programs?
thanks.
Yes it is possible with SPB Plus installed. Look further down the list of options and choose [Close]
This should do the trick.
I use Wisbar Advance 2 for that. I also have a .cpl that you drop in your windows folder that will show up in Settings>System>Soft Key so you can use the soft keys as a close button. I have the left SK for Windows and the right SK for a Close button.

Hello whats good,
Seems Like no one in the above posts interpreted what you meant.
I understand that U want to close your apps. with the HARDWARE BUTTON <INTERNET EXPLORER>
I assume (As u have stated above) U have set <ok/close> as the Action assigned to it.
Thats why It Minimises it.
To CLOSE IT FULLY. simply assign <CLOSE OK>
SCROLL DOWN >>>
Ok/CLOSE and CLOSE OK are Two Different Things.
That shall close it Proper.
PS::I too was using OK/CLOSE previously. Thanx to your Post I am able to Close my apps Fully.
One thing though It takes a mere 1.5 seconds to open my 2900 Contacts Book. But My device is lighter all the time with all the memory Hogging apps Down !!
One more thing I shall add (editing My Post)
Only those apps. whose page is Open shall be closed by this.
Not the background apps.
I know this doesn't answer your question, but you should install smartskey and use the right softkey button to close apps. Alternatively, the end call button seems to close most apps.
thanks for the replys, all helped, i've finally managed to actually close programs without having to always touch the little x in the top corner with my big clumsy thumb!
Im not really familiar with pocket windows but basically, can i create a shortcut to a specific folder. I know there are buttons linking to my documents, and on SPB plus you can have a link to my documents on your today screen, but can i choose a shortcut to a specific folder i have created, on my memory card, and put the shortcut on the today screen?
Thanks again again!

with the spb pocketplus plug-in, you can. click (and hold) on it and a dialog box will open, do the following:
choose Add/Remove Items...
choose Add (left softkey location)
choose Folder
select the folder that you want (you can press on the '+' sign at the storage card folder in order to choose sub-folders)
Anyway the device lock be mapped to a soft key instead of a hard key? I have it mapped to the messaging button, but would rather have it at the calendar or contacts button.

I'm trying to get some directions for the program, from doing a little research on google it looks like you can reassign the button with that program, just have to figure out how. I'll look for some direction on the program.
Ok, I figured it out.
Goto WM5newmenu, under "launch by:" select "Left Softkey" Then under "Soft Key Label:" enter your label (ie. "Lock")
Then goto the "items" tab. select "new" then select the little box next to "parameters:" select "windows" then ""go into" at the bottom.
Scroll over to "BSDeviceLock.exe" then hit "select"
Then enter "lock" or whatever you want under "item label:"
You will see the new entry on the left side of the screen, you may have to scroll down a little. You can uncheck all of the other items and just leave the new "Lock" item you created. After that select ok and do a soft reset.
After it resets, hit your left sofkey, you will see your newly created lock pop up. Then just hit the center button on the pad! It locks!! I just did this and it works!!
Hope this helps,
Just found this, it's even better then WM5newmenu:
Reassign left softkey on Today screen to open Notes application
Use Total Command to navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2
Change the “Default” key to the name that you want to appear on the button (in my case Notes)
Change the “Open” value to the location of the program you want to open (in my case “Windows/Notes.exe” ( you would enter “Windows/BSdevicelock.exe”)
Perform a soft reset
Look in your windows folder to see if you have BSdevicelock.exe if you don't let me know and i'll get it to you.

I did the registry edit, and when I tap the left soft key, I get "the file device lock cannot be opened due to an untrusted certificate, or one of its components is missing." I could NOT find BSdevicelock.exe in the Windows folder. Where in windows should this file be located?
I would like that BSdevicelock as well, if I could.
Its in the root windows folder, you probably don't have it.
I'll attach it as soon as I get home from work tonight!
Just copy it into your windows directory.
BSDevicelock
Just unzip this and place it in your windows folder with the registry change.

Got it good buddy! I kept the other items in WM5NewMenu and labeled the softkey "Menu", and changed BSdevicelock in the label box to Device Lock. Now all I do is hit the new softkey "Menu", scroll to device lock, hit the center button on the D pad. Device locks like you said it would! I was able to do this after extracting the BSdevicelock.zip to my Windows folder. Excellent instructions! Thx a MILL! If you discover anything else that's appealing, let me in on it..o.k.? Just found out I could move Device Lock to the top. Now I don't have to scroll down.

guys you seem to me to be making this quite hard for yourselves
use this softkey app to change the softkeys (3rd post)
use this device lock app.
go to start/settings/system/softkey and select the device lock app
and soft reset, softkey changes generally don't occur until after

None of your "this" links worked for me. Besides, I'm content now.
My old simple Nokia 6200 had a feature whereby the keypad was locked automatically without need for a PIN three minutes (selectable) after a call when there was no activity.
Is there any easy way to implement this ? I can map H/W keys (thanks to Molski) but this isn't quite the same.

Is BSdevicelock better than the lock app already on the device in the Windows folder??
The app im talking about is called devicelock.exe on my device. I have an HTC Wizard
I did not have devicelock.exe in my windows folder originally. BSdevicelock is just a little program that simply locks the device. I don't have devicelock.exe, but I imagine they probably do the same thing. I think BSdevicelock is actually installed by the BatteryStatus program. If you have a later version of Battery Status, you should have BSdevicelock.
Only works for exe (shortcut ".lnk" won't work)
Code:
1. HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager\ApplicationName
2. e.g. Change it to "\..\Windows\Pie.exe"
thats just linking to another application. but its not released for windows mobile use.

You must put that at the start. I did my comm manager and has to do:
"\..\Windows\CommManagerLink.exe"
Thanks for finding this to the OP as well, been looking to get this changed for a while!
i installed one of the roms that do not have panel manager installed. this trick doesnt seem to work on the rom
im confused
cansomeone pls explain what u can achieve by changing this buttoins function other than losing acces to the panel function :S or does this simply mean u can save cpu usage
pls reply with some insight
thnx
Uh... but if you assign your panel button to something else.... then how you gonna access the panels still?
This is incase you dont use the panels.
Like me... i have had the original rom, and 2 roms here on this forum (custom)
And with every rom i had the same thing.
Having tf3d and panels will crash my phone (when i use e.g. google panel and then hit the x for panel change, then i often need to remove battery and place it again)
i rather have the tf3d then panels if i have to choose.
so thats why i use the X for a different app.
AE Button Plus
Or you could use 'AE Button Plus' it works for me flawlessly. I can assign the Panel Button to just about anything I choose.
how did you asign something to the AE button?
how do i reassign another button to run panel manager? I tried to execute /Program Files/Panel Manager/PanelManager.exe but that does not bring up the panel manager
anheuer said:

In AE Button Plus main screen, select FILE menu and choose ADD BUTTON and the dialog box that pops up is waiting for you to press a hardware button...
Press the X-PANEL button (which will probably launch panel manager if it's installed, no matter close that down) it will then allow you to press in the dialog box 'ADD KEY' and also shows you the Key code...
The key code will be next to the newly created button in the list for you to assign to whateve you like.

Yeah, assign Quickmenu.exe to the panel button and you get a "startmenu" button. Search for Quickmenu 2.7 around the forum....
doesnt work
I followed your directions and can't get the x-panel button to run quickmenu. It still runs the panel manager. There's something else that needs to be done, and I haven't' a clue what that is.
At least I was able to load the cab file that makes panels work on the touch HD. So when I eventually get the x-panel button reassigned, I can still access panels (which I infrequently do as it is). I have yet to see the value of panels. I like running things in the background concurrently, i.e. listening to streaming radio or mp3, txt'ing, using GPS, or exploring on the web. Panel switching seems to halt other tasks.
Kinda works
Finally got quickmenu to work with the x-panel key. Another important tidbit of info is that quickmenu must already be running for the x-button to invoke it. Otherwise it loads panelmanager.
Another bit of info, as soon as you run panel for the first time (in programs, the touch HD cab adds it on install), the behavior reverts back to the x-panel key invoking panelmanager and not quickmenu. I checked, quickmenu is still running. Figure that one out. Very confusing.
i installed panel as a seperate cab, i dont have the panel manager in my programs and i cant seem to invoke it any other way besides pressing the hardware button

I heard AEbutton plus cannot grab the OK button. Is this true?
I have a Fuze with everything turned off but what I want (runs quick and smooth). I really don't want 3rd party bloatware and other "TaskManager" or "QuickMenu" applications. I am simply looking for the syntax/shortcut (or maybe small app to launch the built-in HTC QuickMenu that is in the top right corner of the Windows Mobile screen.
I like this QuickMenu and the options that are available... most of all I like that it's already a part of my phone (so hopefully nothing more to install but a shortcut). From what I can tell it's part of the "taskservice.dll" that is loaded in \HKCU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\TaskManager\
Since the Icon in the top-right for the QuickMenu is so small (and I hate getting out the stylus) I wish to map a shortcut/command-syntax preferrably to Right-Soft Key, or possibly a hardware button like PTT.
I've contacted HTC by email and they simply said it couldn't be done but I know that's probably not the case... I just need a super genious hacker to give me the right syntax/steps to make it work.
Thank you in advance for whoever can help on this!!!!

*** Please Relocate Thread if I have somehow posted it in the wrong section. Thanks!!! ***
all you have to do to launch QM from a hardware button is maake a shortcut to programs. then, go into \settings\personal\buttons and select your program to run from one of your buttons.
you can also go into qm settings and select the option to replace the start menu.
also, QM is a third party app.
SVI,
Thanks for the reply.. I guess I should have clarified that I am familiar with the steps for creating a shortcut to an EXE however the QuickMenu that is built in to HTC's Fuze is calling a DLL at startup... so the trick would be how do I shortcut/call a DLL file that has been started up as a service??
I am not interested in any other 3rd party QuickMenu, just wanting to find the way to call up the one that is already installed on my phone... ie. by pointing a shortcut (or possibly small launch app) to start up the "taskservice.dll" with whatever tags/options to open the menu on the Today Screen.
Thanks for any additional info you may be able to provide!
Could you found the solution?
no answers yet
Sancho,
I have still been unable to find the solution, and would very much STILL BE interested in finding it. In the meantime I have just used a shortcut to the built-in Taskmgr.exe (\Windows\Taskmgr) or TaskManagerApp.exe also found in Windows. Both programs are different versions of Task Manager and I found that I like Taskmgr a bit better because I can switch to an open application using that version of Task Manager. However I still like the HTC Quickmenu in the top right corner (other than the fact that it is way to small to hit with your finger) and would love to find a way to point a shortcut to the opening it up while on the Today Screen so that I can see running apps, easily close all, switch to one in particular, or see my power & memory settings.
If anyone still has any ideas on how I might accomplish this I would be extremely grateful! Again I am wanting to do this Natively, using the HTC QuickMenu (Taskservices.dll) already built-in and not interested in installing another 3rd party app that takes up memory.
Thanks in Advance for any help that may be offered!
Michael
Thank you for your fast reply!
Re: Shortcut/App to Launch HTC QuickMenu
I just got a fuze and when i went through the settings i found out what your probably trying to do. Go to Start/setting/the small tab on the bottom that you would find your ''hold end key button''/ Hold end key setting. when you get there , they will be a couple settings relating to what you want your end key shorcut to be. then you will click on ''access quick menu'' (or something like that).
The HTC Quick Menu 2.1 (Build 1918.3631) settings:
(Start / Settings / Systems / Task Manager / Button)
Enable the "X" button to end running programs
End programs by tapping "X"
End programs by tapping and holding "X"
Enable Quick Menu on Today screen
(no more...)
I don't think that it is possible to find a shortcut for this. (do hope that I'm wrong and somebody can find the way and share it here though)
But I would like to recommend one of my favorite light apps which can realize what you desired for. It is called HButton and created by an xda contributor, please referhere:
http://hbutton.dyndns.org/
In Hbtton settings, the <Ok/Close> function actually point to the upper-right corner of the screen.
Think you will like it.
No, thanks, I don't want to install 3rd party apps. : )
I think, need to find a solution here, as under Windows the "rundll32.exe" the "taskservice.dll" to run.

WG > I looked at the link provided and I am not quite sure I understand. from the looks of it.. it would appear to be another Task Manager type application? But are you saying that when configuring the "<Ok/Close>" function and using it, that it will activate the Quick Menu on the Today Screen by "pointing ot the upper-right corner of the screen"? or have I misunderstood you?
If in fact it activates the Quick Menu on the Today screen by activating the upper-right corner, then it may be an app worth trying.
If you could reply and please clarify that would be great.
If anyone else has additional info to add on how I might do this natively that would be AWESOME!

But it sounds like Sancho unerstands what I am looking for.
I am not looking for another Task Manager/Menu, or the "Quick Access List" menu as defined by the "Long Press End Key" in the System Settings.
I am looking for the shortcut/syntax/code/scrip to access what is referred to in the Registry as the HTCQuickMenu (running taskservices.dll) and execute the drop down on the today screen from the small icon in the upper-right corner looks like: ≡ˇ

First you need to know how your desktop is called with this script:
You clic on this script and hurry to your desktop (the windowname is showed for 5 sec

Sleep 5000

Sleepmessage (5, X1)
The you copy this windowname in the script

WaitForActive ("NAME", 6)

OK. I try to explain you, but I have the Shell in czech language...I try it. On main screen SPB press right button (next to contacts). Press green plus (add widget), then press first icon (on the left -Shortcut), then Settings-Connections-Wirelless manager and...???? Is it there??? Next step is move button wifi to the right...Wifi is ON and you can search wifi LAN...
This suggestion here may help

Thanx both of you, with the little program from "azahidi's" link i succeeded to use my WiFi, thanx guys your great
Now the only thing is to see how to Unlock ROM and put another one on my phone
Orig WiFi program as supplied with windows can be found using file explorer- Windows folder then scroll down till you see a file"WLanSettings" with a small picture of a PDA next to it.Highlight this file then select copy. Navigate to where you want to install, click in the window. Choose paste shortcut. Next, if you want, rename shortcut. Copy result, navigate to the folder you wish to place the shortcut in (ie settings?), paste. Close explorer, go to start menue, navigate to shortcut just created, should work

Thanks for the suggestion. I already found these WLanSettings, but it still isn't exactly what I'm after. When I launch WLanSetting, next I have to turn on Wireless LAN, wait...because my access point takes a while to appear in the list, because of the waiting period it doesn't "auto connect" anymore, so I have to press "change network" and select it manually from the list with detected access point...Hold it...
Thanks again !! because when trying this (at this very moment), "Settings" appeared in my task manager (after pressing "change network"; this opened Configure Wireless Networks). Through task manager I was able to see what exe-file was behind "Settings". It's "ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,17,2". Thanks to Google I just found out that putting 33# before ctlpnl.exe (without a space!) and saving this as .lnk works perfectly!!!
