remap the IE key to launch opera, possible?

Just wondering if it's possible to remap the IE key on the keyboard to launch the opera program.
Thanks.

Hi,
No...not possible

A solution, some what... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=253662&highlight=remap+ie+button

Oh, I made an app to do this a while back, remap all the FN+ X keys, eg fileexplorer, comm manager etc.. Actually designed for Hermes (remap all the fn keys on there, also the video call button, and the wired headset button). I'd not had a good reason to use it on the universal until recently tho.
It can be done... will have to release that some time... don't have a name for it tho

Problems on hard reset sequence

Hard reset sequence: Press VoiceDial button + comms manager button + soft reset. You will get a screen with 3 colored bars; at this screen, press the D-Pad UP. (some other version will display a message saying to restore to factory default settings, press the 'Send' button. In this case, press your 'Send'/'Call' button).
seriously, please tell me.. where is the Dial Pad?

i need to delete this msg! i dont know where

I can't view the image (it gives me an error when I C&P the link) and I get the second version (the message with the 'press send' button), but I think the instruction means for you to press 'up' on the almost-D-shaped-if-you-squint-a-bit navigation button (located between the Send/Call button and the End Call button).
I'm not sure though, as I am no guru so hopefully someone else will come along and confirm this!
With regards to deleting the double post, I think you'll have to ask a mod to do it. Sometimes there's a delete option if you click the 'edit' button at the bottom of a post, but I can't see one when I try and edit my post, so maybe these forums have it disabled?

Re-mapping the Camera button?

Hello,
I have a Dopod D810 and would like to change the behaviour of one of the buttons on my device.
Currently pressing and releasing Button 2 once (right-hand side, towards base) will launch the Camera:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What I would like to do is to is change the Camera to only launch when Button 2 is set to 'Press & Hold', much in the same way <Rotate Screen> is currently set up. How do I add a button definition for 'Button 2 (Press & Hold)'?
BTW, tried installing AE Button Plus but it's waaaay too complicated for what I need!
Thanks in advance!

*bump*
Anyone?

I think you really need to use third party software, because HTC doesn't allow to have a 2nd function to camera button. I use AEButton plus and it's not that complicated, you'll have the chance to also assign a function to a double press. I use the voice dial, camera and softkeys mapped. BTW by mapping camera button you'll have to use the action button for pictures.

Phone app path

Hi,
I'm trying to remap my left softkey to the phone application.
What path do I need to find the Phone application? I can't find it.
Just te be clear:
I'd like my left soft key on the today screen to link to this app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Where can I find the right path?

Errrm...why do you want a softkey link to the Phone? just pressing the dial button will start it...
anyway, Phone is somewhere in the Windows directory if I remember correctly(I recall seeing it there once...).

Old habits I guess, I want a Phone button on my screen.
I can't find one in the Windows directory (latest PDAViet rom).
I just fixed it by linking to
\Windows\Start Menu\Phone.lnk

That's a way to have it work too...

[Q] Menu button function changing

I want to bring it back to older device function just like calling app's "Context menu" instead of calling "Recent Apps".
Is there a way to change galaxy s5's menu button function? (especially without rooting)
Somebody knows why it is changed and is it changed in recent android os or recent samsung device or only galaxy s5?

you can use key remapping but that's requires root access, i don't think there is a way to do it without rooting your device
maybe someone else can help you sorry
just for your information the menu button is still there just press and hold the recent app button for few seconds and it will pop tried it on my S5
