Running programs assign to hardware button?

I have tried to search this forum for a solution, but got somehow lost in all the posts. I know about those great applications like e.g. smartkey etc. but if I do want to assign only the "Memory/Running programs List" menu to a hardware button, is there any easier solution (e.g. using some registry adjustments)?
Thanks
O.

Make a shortcut exactly as follows:
ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,4,2
Save it as VJForgetMeNot.lnk
Go to Settings > Personal > Buttons
and assign VJForgetMeNot.lnk to a hardware key.
Check here for how to change the icon:

Is it possible!?!?

Hi all!
I'd like to configure the std button to open contact and/or calendar in order to do some action (create new sms for example!) or open some app. when press and hold... is it possible?
Any simple app that make just that?

Markino: can you explain further? You want to open a particular contact, but in what screen? Contacts or calendar?
Or you want to press the contacts/calendar button and use it to send an sms etc?

Sorry, for my terrible English...
I'd like to press and hold the calender or contact button and associate the "press and hold" to do somethink like "create new sms"...
P.S: I'd like a easy way to create new sms.

VJPhoneTools will do this. There is another way, but they're both just as difficult.
You could also use the app on this forum, SmartKey or something, to give you a "new" menu on the Today screen, to create new sms etc. Very very good app.

Hi,
yes it's possible. And much more: http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
- Run Application
- Emulate keypress of Enter (Action), Esc and up/down/left/right keys
- Emulate standard application buttons
- "Virtual Application Button": Being specified as keypress action, "Virtual button" appears in standard Start -> Settings -> Buttons setup dialog and may be assigned here.
- Volume up/down
- Emulate Soft Keys
- Close (terminate) active application
- Switch next application
- Task Manager with charge level / memory summary info. Task manager may be operated with directional pad (up/down - choose application, left/action - switch to, right - terminate) or finger/stylus. You may apply filters to hide annoying applications (e.g. Phone)
- Ok/Close
- Start Menu
- Switch Display Off/On. Once you switch display OFF you may turn it back ON by the same keypress event or simply pressing Power On button.
- Switch BlueTooth Off/On
- Switch WiFi Off/On
- Vibration mode Off/On (WM5 only)
- Turn Off PDA
- Soft-Reset PDA (Soft Reset)
- Screen rotation
- Drop DialUp connections
- Disable "Power Off device if not used..."
- Switch to Today screen
- Clipboard operations: Select All / Copy / Cut / Paste
- Memory Monitor
- Battery Monitor/Uptime Forecast. It will show battery voltage/current/temperature if corresponding sensors are available
- Current Date/Time
- Pop-up menu with important AEBPlus actions. This feature is available in activated version only
- Any built-in action may be initiated by shortcut calling aebplus.exe with corresponding command line parameter

How to replace IE button to another app

Hi There,
I have an XDA EXEC with the latest rom from O2.
How do I change the Internet Explorer button on the keyboard to launch a different application (namely: Opera).
I have looked into START -> SETTINGS -> BUTTONS and don't seem to get the option to set this button.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

[ROM 1.48] Button assginment?!

Hi people,
I'm using the 1.48 ROM and was trying to assign the handsets buttons to
applications via the windows native settings application (i.e. Start -> Settings
-> Personal -> Buttons).
Unfortuanely, the list with buttons is empty, so I cannot assign any application
(would want to use the voicecmd app). Is there a workaround to make the
volume control buttons appear in the list or assign the volume down button to
any desired .exe on the device?
Thanks. mc7

You can try to use AEButtons or SPB Pocket Plus..... but I think that in 1.48 ROMs voicecmd isn't included.
OR if you update to 1.61 voicecmd is already assigned to SEND button!
