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!

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....
Hi,
I have couple questions regarding the left soft key menu customization on wm5 smartphone.
This is what I already know:
I know how to customize the right soft key (SK2) menu in Contacts using iContextMenu interface by studying the SDK sample code.
Description of what I hope to achieve:
In the Contacts screen, the default action for the left soft key (SK1) is "New Contact", I would like to customize the left soft key to do something else. It could be "New SIM Contact" or even "Beam Contact", or "Delete", or ultimately my customized action.
Also:
Is the menu control in Contact same as the menu control in Call Log? I have a feeling they are some what different, is this true?
Thanks in advance,
Nelson
Ummm, anyone? Plz?
This solution i used it for Himalaya
I understand u want to use the left soft key to another software
make ur computer browser to see the hidden files
unzip the attachement
copy it to the windows directery in ur mobile
soft reset
start - setting - system - soft key
press on the upper right block
chose the programe u want
press ok
ok
soft reset
finished
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.

Yeah, I missed that the first time through... Sorry...
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?
Hello!
Maybe some easy answering question - how can I change the software buttons (down at the display, left and right) which is now left "Contacts" and right "Internet" to other actions..
Thanks!

There are several ways. KeySwop is one of them
You could also try SoftKey manager.
