Any ideas on how to get the light button working on a jas-jar. Mine has not been working since the start and I've tried everything. The button Im talking about is the first from the right close to the infrared port on the outside of the device. It is supposed to turn on the flashlight but when I press it nothing happens and it doesnt even show up in the buttons applet in WM5.
Actually that button doesn't turn on the flashlight, though some here have tried to come up with a hack so that it would. I don't know if they were ever successful with that.
That button turns on the screen backlight when it has timed out but your device is still turned on. It's not the most useful button, which is why folks were trying to come up with a hack to make it more useful, for instance to turn on the flashlight like you wanted to.
Maybe if someone has had success, they will chime in here.
Change the button
Attached is a cab file allowing you to make use out of the light button to anything else :lol:
When yuo say anything else, does that include controlling the flashlight? Either way, thanks for the file.
Would be nice if one could assign it to turn on the keyboard backlight.
There is no option to adjust the sensitivite of the light sensor for the keyboard, and i think that it kicks in way to late.
Find my self holding the finger over the sensor and hitting a button to make it light up.
Any one aware og a possible Reg Hack to make this option appear in the Assing Button list?

why dont u just change the option in the settings\buttons\backlight and take the tick off the box, and it works like a charm. everytime u press a key it lights up, sorted, and it doesnt affect the battery at all really
@Elmo
Well i didn't use that choise because i don't have any car charger yet. (Waiting for the Brodit kit)
I want to preserve as much battery as possible.........as you already know, this baby can eat your battery pretty fast............

Is this the same as changing it manually on the registry?
Yes, it's my CAB file I posted a little while back that adds a registry entry so that you see it listed as "Button 5" in the Buttons setting applet.

Isn'it available for the Wizard too ? ...
I wrote a very simple script that turn on the camera and press the flash button.
I use the flash key and ms voice command to start it
you need to have MortScript installed. (include with this package)
A very simple question from a new owner -- where are the buttons defined that are assigned in Settings - Buttons? I don't see them labeled as "Button 1", etc in the User Manual.

On your HTC Universal, go to:
Start>Settings>Buttons
From there you can change the assignments of the buttons.
Ok. I have found the 2 keyboard keys that are buttons 1 and 2, and the 2 external buttons that are buttons 3 and 4.
I must say that button 1 is not very useful for voice command, when the device is closed. I guess I could assign it to button 4 or button 5 with the registry hack.
On the supplied "headset", there is a microphone with a button on it.
- What does that button do?
- Is it possible to use it for Voice Command?
(I guess for that to happen, it first needs to be recognised as an assignable button in WM5).
The backlight button cab file is working. Now I can reassign that useless button becomes the OK button. Very useful when use it in the tablet mode. But I need two more buttons to use for the softkey. I have use the record button for the left softkey and have no more button for the right softkey. Any suggestion?
One more thing, the script for enabling the flash light does not work. It turns on the camera, but the flash light remains off.
Hi all,
I use the BT A2DP profile to stream music through the media player and one of the 'features' that differs from the K-JAM (wizard) and is lacking in the TyTN is the ability to continue that stream even when the device is 'off' (useful for saving battery, switching off the buttons, etc.). With the TyTN whenever the device is turned off the stream also ceases. Does anybody know if there is someway of ensuring that the media player is not switched off along with the device (I'm guessing a registry setting or similar).
All help very welcome.
Cheers
I was wondering this also. My wizard was able to be "off" and still stream. ANyone got any brigjt ideas?
Later, Lew
Have you tried just turning the screen off? PocketPlus has a utility called "Screen Toggle," which does just that.
When used in conjunction with the Button Lock (leaving only the power button active), you just might be able to solve your issue...

Yeah...what he said!
That what I do.
I really miss this feature to.
So there is no way to do it on the Hermes?
Its not particulary elegent to have to perform multiple steps to turn the screen off. it was much eaiser just to hit the off button and listen away...
I'm using VjDeviceLock wich is what you want, I think.
After you've installed it you should create a new shortcut in c:/windows/startmenu/programs/vijay555/vjdevicelock. You can copy an exiting one in this directory and edit the parameter. What you want is "-displayoff". I bound this to my Videocall-Button, cause I don't use video telephony.
If I listen to music I just have to press my Videocall-Button and VjDeviceLock turns off my screen and locks all Buttons except the power on/off one.
Also VjDeviceLock is just great to save money
If you get a sms or a call the device turns on itself. I once didn't notice this and called a random person out of my adressbook, because I had my trion in my pocket and were moving all the evening and somehow started a call.
This cannot happen again, because I started vjdevicelock with parameter "-install". Now everytime my trion turns on itself it gets automatically (re)locked.
thats a fantastic solution and it works really well!
what program are you using to remap the buttons?
Hi,
Does anyone else suffers strange key problems when using VJdevicelock;
After using -displayoff or -displaytoggle and resume back to normal, phone buttons (call/disconnect,videotalk) doesnt work anymore, it need to be softreseted before the buttos work again?
-Kha
EDIT:
just found out that when resuming from -displayoff, after pressing windows and ok softkeys, dialbuttos work again!
I'd appreciate if somebody here could advice me on how to map VjDeviceLock to VideoCall button on my TyTN (I have original TyTN ROM and the VideoCall key is functional ). I couldn't remap it using Buttons configuration utility in Settings.
as I said you have to create a Shortcut in your Startmenu. Shortcuts in Startmenu are shown as available possibilities in Start - Settings - Buttons (Perhaps it's called a bit different. I'm using a german version where it's called 'Tasten')
This is how I remapped it. I don't use a special program.
I use the device lock on today plugins.

Thank you very much for your instant response. I did all you mentioned in your message and I remapped the VideoCall button (is it the Button between Buttons 4 and 5 ? ) but pressing it still doesn't activate VJDevice. Any other suggestions?
Is the device locked when you click on the shortcut?
If not: edit an existing shortcut, let's say "VJDeviceLock About.lnk". Make it point to: \Programms\vjay555\VJDeviceLock\VJDeviceLock.exe" -displayoff
It is right that there is only one "
When I open my shortcut in a text editor the content is:
Code:
64#"\Programme\vijay555\VJDeviceLock\VJDeviceLock.exe" -displayoff"
Yes. The device locks when I click on the shortcut itself but when I press VideoCall button, to which I had previously mapped the link, the Dialpad pops up.

Wow - this aebplus is the most useful app I have found for the xperia.. definitely worth the $7 i paid for registration. i hate relying on the touchscreen since one, it is more difficult to find the buttons, and two, the touchscreen doesn't always respond immediately or accurately. navigating using the crappy windows media interface is a thing of the past and works better than inconsistent navigation of the touchflo or spb shell interfaces.
here's how i've set mine up so that i almost never have to use the touchscreen and can do everything in a few button presses
left silver key - press once - opens up messaging to get to e-mails
left silver key - press twice - opens up start menu (can get to the five or so programs stickied there or go to programs and settings with the d-pad)
left silver key - long press - opens up comm manager (not needed much since i can toggle wifi and bluetooth with the action list)
right silver key - press once - MS voice command
right silver key - press twice - open task manager to switch b/w apps
ok button - press twice - opens up action list (rotate screen, toggle bluetooth/wifi, soft reset, turn off
end button - press twice - close active application
Hello,
I also bought this usful application. But I have problems to configure the "panel" button.
I added the panel button and configure it. When I press the button, the configured action is executed, but the panel is also still executed
Any ideas?

i think you may be stuck with the panels button being unmappable right now. let's hope someone can figure it out though.
might be best to speak to the apps developers to get X1 support built in to allow the panel button remapping.
I sent Alexander an email and he answered yesterday. I got the following answer:
My understanding is, that he is not able to solve the problem because the button is processed on driver level. So we have to find a solution to disable this part of the driver which sounds not so easy to handle....
Bad news for me because I didn't use the panels...
stefan
--------------
Hello Stefan,
Thanks, it is always nice to know if you find this utility useful.
As for the “panel” button. The behaviour you describe most likely caused by “panel” button is processed on a driver level. This makes it impossible to disable original functionality by method BPlus uses.
So you could just search for another solution and it probably is in forums already. I have no X1 somewhere around to play with (unfortunately) but could suggest 2 ideas:
- Usually this “driver-level” functionality finally starts an application placed in /Windows/ folder. You could find this application (or link sometimes) and overwrite with “empty” application or link. Sometime it will require .CAB file creation due to ROM file protection.
- or default application to run on “panel” press could be specified in registry. Just search the registry for it and change to do nothing.
There are other approaches for “default” action possible but above are most simple and well-known.
Regards,
Alexander

you gotta have the setting for single click to run the application. the file you want to run is in \Program Files\MS Voice Command\voicecmd.exe

How're you doing with battery life? Some people notice their battery dies quicker, some don't and I unfortunately fall into the former group. It's definitely one of the most useful thing I have ever bought but had to uninstall as my battery was draining fairly quicker than usual, shame though.
You can also try my X1ButtonMapper app that can be found in this forum. It allows for assigning long press actions for softkey and volume rocker. Besides that, it allows for Ok short and long press remapping, mapping missing Fn+Key, Setting Ctrl on keyboard and some more. It is for free and I haven't had and heard about any battery drain issue.
I recommend X1ButtonMapper it extends the keyboard and other buttons. Check it out!

I've searched like hell, wiki and all, but can't find a way to do this.
When I click the signal icon in the top bar, the system status screen appears, which is fine, but then if I click the signal icon on that screen it closes and then a notification icon pops up to show me the signal status in a bubble.
Is there any way to go straight from the system status screen to the comm manager? rather than the really long way at the moment?
I'd be really happy if there was a third party app which took the system status screens place with more detailed info and comm manager in one.
hope someone can help.
Logicalstep
I don't know if it will solve your problem, but I simply added "Comm manager" as shortcut in the start menu. (2 clicks to comm manager)
I found that if I mapped the CommManager to the 'press and hold' call accept (green phone button) in the 'buttons' section in settings, then its nice and easy to load and it doesn't then matter where you are in your phone you can always get to commManager quick and easy.
I used to have this button mapped to use the camera, this is so I had a hardware camera button but the delay is too much to live with for me.
Hi,
Thanks for the tips, I know you can just assign comm manager to a button, but I was hoping there would be a more technical way to use the system status screen to go to the comm manager.
I already have on of my buttons mapped to rotate.
Thanks
Logicalstep
Use Ae button plus (i am using it to turn on-off wifi with a double press on the vol up button)
or
edit the registry so you assign the commanager to your left softkey @ homescreen (you can use HD tweak or Advanced config tools).
instead of doing that to get to comm manager why dont you just
press home
slide to settings
load comm manager
its like button, slide, tap, less than 1 second and you can do it with one finger or your thumb while holding your phone in the same hand
tap start , tap comm manager. your there

Personally I feel 'Tap Start , Tap Comm Manager' is probably the best route to take but if you want to map a button to comm manager use AEB PLus
For example if you want you could use the Volume Up button to run Comms Manager as well as volume
Simply set Single Tap to run application and Double Tap for volume or whatever button & configuration you prefer
You have a choice of buttons to use and 3 option for configuration i.e. Single Tap, Double Tap & Hold Button
Well thanks for all your suggestions they are good ones, but as always me being very picky, I was kind of hoping there would be registry hack to allow me to do it from the system status, in my opinion this wouold be the more TF3d integrated solution allowing me to go to the comm manager just as pressing the volume button takes me to the volume controls.
It just a little illogical the way it shows the notification bubble instead of taking you to the comm manager.
What would be really great is a more advanced syatsm status screen showing all the connection info on it, such as wifi signal strength and status, data status
all icons with the ability to click on and go to comm manager.
I'm guessing this is probably just me, but I think that would be great.
Logicalstep
Start-Settings-System-Touch-FLO, untick the Show System Status screen checkbox.
At least that cuts out one unnecessary step..
hmm I don't really think that qualifies as solving my gripe as it just disables the system status menu and that doesn't fulfil any of my wish list.
Ok well if I can't get it to work with the touchflo system status screen is there a way to change what program is launched on the click of the task bar? That way I might stand a chance of making or finding an app that does what I want.
Logicalstep
doesnt the new htc notification thingy replace those bubble pop ups with a full screen finger friendly screen?
i dont know cos i havent installed it...
then clicking on the icon would take u to take screen to load comm manager
I downloaded WKTASK, you can find it on this site, which places an icon of all open programs on the task bar. Open Commmgr the first time and then leave it open on the task bar. Next time you need it one tap brings you there.
wktask looks cool thanks
Hello everyone, I'm sure many people will be interested to know that AE Button Plus is working perfectly with LEO and support english, french (which I use), spanish, deutsch and ten other languages. BTW, this is my first post, so every comments are welcome
The HD2 may be a touch device, it still has 7 buttons and I use them for variaty of functions, including switching on/off BLUETOOTH, WIFI or TORCH. You can even assign any button to run an application. The program is VERY stable and VERY convenient.
This exceptional app has the ability to reassign function to (almost) every physical button of your device, including the volume button. Moreover, it has the ability to assign different functions whether you press the button ONCE, TWICE or LONG PRESS. It very simple to use and work wonderfully with my HTC HD2 (as wall as many other Windows Mobile Device). I've used it for more than a week and I can't report any bug, even though I installed many other apps, tweak and so on.
I'm using the evaluation version (you have pay 7.99$) by the fact that it shows a splash screen when device starts up. But you can believe I will pay the damn Russian guy who created the app, many even donate more!!!
I wanted to share my experience with using this app, since it's not very known in this (great) HD2 forum. Also, I want to show you the way I've been remapping the buttons, to show how useful it can get. Feel free to comment!!! Once you install the program, softreset and assign the AEBPlus to a shortcut and you're ready to rock! By the way, the icon is quite ugly, but that's just a minor issue .
THIS IS THE WAY I REMAPPED HD2 BUTTONS (in brackets, the way AEPlus "calls" the button)
Volume up.
Single press: volume up
Long press Backlight up
Volume down.
Single press: volume down
Long press Backlight down
Hang up (green phone button)
Single press: switch vibration mode on/off (and shut down the volume)
Double press: switch torch on/off (run application "TorchButton v2.3")
Home button (button #00ED), added manually
Single press: unchanged, impossible to remap ??
Double press: switch bluetooth on/off (impossible to make it different than the "Home button"...)
Long press: impossible to remap ??
Windows button (windows key)
Single press: ok/close (close the window, but not the program still runs)
Double press: windows file explorer (you can choose to run another explorer, for example Total Commander)
Long press: close active application ("really" close the application)
Return button (also button #00ED, added manually, see ISSUE below)
Single press: unchanged (actually I chose no action, but the original function remains)
Double press: switch bluetooth on/off
Long press: switch wifi on/off
Power button (red phone button)
Single press: unchanged (shuts down backlight)
Double press: unchanged
Long press: unchanged (actually, I use it with "Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen v1.1")
KNOWN ISSUES AND SOLUTIONS
- Absolutely no bug !
- Bluetooth. The function included with this program doesn't work (apparently because HD2 uses Widcomm bluetooth, unlike its predecessors). To solve this, I simply assign the desired button with the application "ToggleBTh.exe" (credit to Dextrosan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587493). I copied the file to the folder "Program Files" and created a shortcut in the "windows/start menu/programs" to be able to make it appear in the program list.
- Backlight level. To adjust the backlight, you have to access the settings of the program. Click options -> backlight settings (scroll down !). There you can adjust the darkest level you wish (0 = minimum backlight) and the brightest level (10 = 100% = maximum backlight , less if you want to save battery life) and backlight step (2 = 20% is fine with me). Beware, when you assign a button with function backlight level, you have to choose in the subsequent menu if you want "backlight down", "backlight up" or even "backlight level" 0, 2 (= 20%), 4 (= 40%) and so on.
- Manually add Home button. Home button is not listed in the program, so you have to add it manually. Choose "File -> Add button" and follow instructions. Actually, there's a trick... If you press the Home button, it will close the window and go back to your home page. You'll have to go back in the program using the task manager.
- Home and Return button cannot be remapped individual. For some reason, when you manually add Home button, it's called #00ED and when you assign actions, these actions also work with the Return button... Actually, these actions even work BETTER on Return button than Home button. Single press and Long press actions will not work with Home button, but they work with Return button. Weird, huh? Even if you manually add Home button (then called #405C) and assign actions for the button, it won't work at all, and the Return will still execute actions listed with the button #00ED. All in all, it's a minor issue. Just remember that I can't remap single or long press for teh Home Button.
EDIT: Dec, 20 I also use the function "control volume directly" so that the volume buttons control SYSTEM volume directly and not the ring volume. Also, this nice function disable the ugly pop-up volume window that appears and have the annoying tendency to change ring volume first !!! This function is located in the menu "Options -> Other options -> Control volume directly". You can check or uncheck it.
That all folks, hope this little work will be useful for many.
Much help is appreciated to try to solve the Home/Return button issue.

Of course, as long as you find an exe which does that automatically whenever invoked. You can do pretty much anything as long as you can associate it with a specific utility. I use the program with my ipaq 210 and am very pleased with it, with a resistive screen it's even more useful.
Now, if only I wasn't dead-dumb enough to let slip from my hands this leo for 430EU on ebay... who knows how long will I have to wait to find another one at that price.

- Bluetooth. The function included with this program doesn't work (apparently because HD2 uses Widcomm bluetooth, unlike its predecessors). To solve this, I simply assign the desired button with the application "ToggleBTh.exe" (credit to Dextrosan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587493). I copied the file to the folder "Program Files" and created a shortcut in the "windows/start menu/programs" to be able to make it appear in the program list.

if you already have Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen then no need for you to use togglebth. touch x leo power 12 icons have wifi and bluetooth toggles working well on leo.

- Home and Return button cannot be remapped individual. For some reason, when you manually add Home button, it's called #00ED and when you assign actions, these actions also work with the Return button... Actually, these actions even work BETTER on Return button than Home button. Single press and Long press actions will not work with Home button, but they work with Return button. Weird, huh? Even if you manually add Home button (then called #405C) and assign actions for the button, it won't work at all, and the Return will still execute actions listed with the button #00ED. All in all, it's a minor issue. Just remember that I can't remap single or long press for teh Home Button.

Much help is appreciated to try to solve the Home/Return button issue.[/B]

ok. so we have something special on our leos.
- htc sense.
- green button - send key.
- red button - end key.
- home button. this key is stucked with htc sense.
- back button.
1. green button.
i can do any thing with this key. but i leave long press unchanged beacause my vangrieg_incall_lock_ita had added long_send.lnk that link to phone on my \windows and i don't want to interfere into it. now long press on send key = phone. this is a vital function, right? so let it be.
2. red button.
i can't do any thing, but "Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen" can.
so for me end key has single press as normal and long press by "Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen". that is more than enough. power off is a vital function also.
3. home button.
as said, this key is stucked with htc sense. so you can not change single press anyway. you can do somethings with double, triple and even long press but firstly it takes you to home screen then do your commands. for long press see next item.
4. back button.
this is exactly "ok key" on aebutton. you even don't need to add it manually. you can do everything with this key except long press. long press works only when you are on a certain program interface. this does not work when you are on htc sence interface. to get this long press work on anything, anywhere and anytime you have to assign the same action you want to do to HOME KEY LONG PRESS. and voilà !!! this works 4u.
Thanks for your appreciation of my thread.
Still, If you are really "hardcore hardware fan" you can use AEBPlus to assign even the double tap and triple tap of the keys
To oainot. About the bluetooth toggle, If find it quicker and simpler, to double tap on one button, turn on my headphones and get going out in the snow. I use it literally everytime If get out of my apartment. Just think: would you prefer to switch the light off your apartment with a long-click (+ click in a menu) or with a simple double-click? Just a matter of taste I guess. The best is to have to choice!
To satoo. Here's my configuration file. I should tell you that my system is in french. I managed to put "english" as language in the program, but you can still get some french word (calculatrice = calculator i think; Explorateur de fichiers = file explorer; ). See attached file.
Merry Christmas!

I am in entire agreement with you.
one key like hold red key ,we can switcher wifi on/off, bt on/off.
So，in an identical manner，
I set one key (ex:hold vol up) to active phoneweaver ,with which i set some usefull profiles :
mute mode: switch vibration mode
day mode: loudly volume
night mode: max or min backlight level as you like
.......
each mode we can define (backlight level,vol lvl,differents rings,wifi on/off,bt on off)
here is phoneweaver 2.0 with XXXX，sorry for my english

i would like to switch the action of the red button the other way round.
i would like long press red button to lock the phone and turn off backlight and single press red button to launch the Touch X Power 12 icons actionscreen. I cant seem to achieve this does anyone have any ideas?

i'm afraid it is not possible.
single press of red key may controled by basic input output system, not the operating system (windows mobile), not the htc sense or not any other resident program.
may be this should be that for power on the phone by single press while operating system is still not running.
may be someone could hack the key someway. i dunno. if aebutton had a button assume called "power key", it could be possible to try.
Assign Softkeys Functions
I changed the setting to reassign functions of softkeys. AE Button shows the setting properly, but it does not work.
any suggestion?
thanks

Yes, I noticed that the left softkey cannot be remapped by AEB. You'll have to use the newer BsBTweak which works just fine with the left softkey. Find it here

this feature is for devices with physical soft keys. Leo doesn't have them. search the forums for softkey remapper (Today and/or Manila).
