Re-mapping the Camera button? - P3600 General

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.

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?

It's setup that way, you have to manually configure the setting for Button 5.
Go to settings > buttons.
The program will show two Button 5's:
Button 5 (Press and Hold) File Explorer
Button 5 {configure as needed}
That should get you going.

With the "official" AT&T WM6 ROM, the traditional PTT Fix doesn't work.
Just an FYI for everyone else who wants to try to answer this.
However, stesul411 did provide the correct link to the updated version that will work.

GScroll - maybe a replacement for the missing dpad?

Hi,
I'm new to HTC devices, so maybe it was already discussed for the HD, although I couldn't find anything.
I know there are many of you are missing the dpad, and I think a dpad is really helpful in some situations. By watching some reviews on the Diamond I just found a little application called GScroll.
It includes a really nice functionality called "'Swipe' to Scroll":
{
"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"
}
As I don't have my device yet I'm not sure if it would work on the HD, but maybe it could, or at least it could after some modification.
Maybe it would be possible to use the "home" and "back" button as a dpad, that would be really cool. Another possible solution would be that by pressing the "back" button you enable the functionality and then could use the "home" button as dpad. So you "loose" just one button at all.
So I'm asking you, if you could give it a try. Maybe we have to write to the author(s) in order to support the HD, but I don't know why it shouldn't work at all.
Any input is appreciated.
It does not work on my HD.
I hoped that it may work sometime.
I have solution to left and right. just slide on this hardware buttons
ups this right and left should be change by side. right -> left <-
your solution? how? still gscroll??

[Q] Paranoid Expandable Desktop

So I've been working on a theme to post at mycolorscreen.com and when I was creating the wallpapers I took a screenshot
to get the exact size of the screen not realizing the soft key buttons covered the bottom portion of my theme (in Tablet UI).
I can get around using Apex Actions to see my recent apps and quick settings, but the problem is when I'm in expandable
desktop mode and I'm using an app I don't have the back or home button therefore I have to hold down the power button and
get out of expandable desktop mode and its just a pain in the butt and such a hassel. My question is is there anyway I can
use my volume up button for home and the volume down for back? Or perhaps an app someone knows off that could help me
with my situation?
Thanks in advance, elRei
Flash the latest Paranoid beta (v2.99 1/14/13) and turn on pie controls under Settings>Toolbars and you'll have this when swiping from the bottom of the screen in expanded desktop mode.
