Hi all,
Does anyone know how to disable the phone buttons? I can disable everything except these! This has been driving me nuts for a few weeks now, I might just end up hopping around lile the easter bunny!! Many thanks in advance.
BTW I am using c# and vs2005.
Steve.
you can write a keyboard hook and block the keypresses corresponding to the phone buttons.

Hi, wonder if anybody has a way to get rid of the keyboard clicking sound on the Universal?
It would be so far better when use in quiet meetings. I was looking at the sound setting but didn't find anything there. Want to check to see if there is any registry heck or other ways to fix this.
Thanks!
go to settings->sounds
disable there the checkbox for the hardware buttons
This is strange as the hardware botton box was never ticked in the first place... I tried tick and untick and softreset it but it does not seem to work. The keyboard clicking sound still there...
Any further advice please?
The keys have a mechanical click sound built in - very difficult to get rid of.
On a similar subject - anyone know how to turn off the clicks that happen when you use the start menu?
sounds and notifications - uncheck 'Events (warnings, system events) I'm not sure what all else you lose, but it turns off what you wanted.
Thank you.
It would be so nice to have a seperate volume level for sms and system sounds.
It really is bad to have them put into one volume setting.
Developers... any ideas? Calling Vijay/Buzz... and other smart PPC devs?
the clicks are mechanical , you can't get rid of them,
a trade off between membrane and swith activated keyboards,
although more noisy, the switch activated responseivness is better
cheers

Thanks all for your responses. Looks like I'll need to explore other input methods during quiet meetings...
Hey
As the topic title suggest i have been thinking alot about this ..
Since many people hate the way you change between words when using the phonepad on the diamond (either by tapping on the word, or by using the d-pad which can be tricky) i thought: hey what about using the nav wheel to scroll between words? when scroling in one direction it will go left and when scrolling another direction it will go right..
There is the one solution however which would be to change to the new Touc HD Keypad which has arrows.. This works really great, but the keys are too small if you ask me..
I am no programmer, but i wish i were, but is this possible and if it is, how hard would it be to make?
And is this idea good at all ?
~D
I am no programmer either, but oh my fuc*ing god that sounds like a great idea
Just bringing this to the top.. Just want to hear if this is a good idea.. ?
Not a bad idea. But the NAV button isn't as hard as you think once you figure it out. Don't try pushing the button itself, but push to the left or the right of the button.
See the following thread to understand what I mean.
I used to hate the NAV button until I came across the article above.
Nice idea, i have think about it self
The only potential problem I see is that anything written or developed would also have to disable the Zoom funtion of the NAV wheel when the dictionary is visible and reenable it when it's not.
Otherwise it would scroll and zoom at the same time.
Anyone knows if we have to disable anything to get Handy Menu to OFF my Xperia X1? Seems that it will just Off the Screen instead of Power OFF. Same thing happen when I tried to use Kaisoft autoturnoff program.
Any experts to help on this?
Thanks in advance

Learn 2 read. He said he's already done so.
@Kevin_seymer: I don't think this is a software problem. Usually it works when you turn it off through the Settings, I mean some spilt coffee can't do anything to SOFTware. I think your problem is Hardware-related. Perhaps there is a short-circuit or something of the kind that triggers phonebook and calendar. I suppose those are your softkey mappings, since they are by default. A possible solution that will make your problem less annoying (But no solve it) would be to map the softkeys to nothing. This would free you from the apps opening all the time - but that's it.

Yes. But it hasn't happened to me for a long time now. Perhaps cuz I don't really use panels anymore. But I can confirm it happened to me multiple times.
And @Kevin_seymer: If you need help with remapping the softkeys, ask. I can tell you how if you can't figure it out.
I have mapped the left and and right soft keys to nothing, and things got a little better. Thanks =)
