Got my new XDA Exec today. Keyboard has a button with the Internet Explorer icon on. When I press it I'm taken to http://pda.o2.co.uk/ which is about as much use as tits on a kipper.
Is there any way to reprogram this key to something more useful? Like Google or something? It doesn't appear in the list of programmable buttons in the control panel Buttons applet.
Perhaps it's a registry entry. If so, can anybody suggest a (free) WM2005-compatible registry editor?
TIA
Not sure about the Exec, but this was the registry edit for the JasJar:
Change hardware PIE behavior:
Go to - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\OEM\Keybd
Change the string called PieHomePage to the website address of your choice.
If you don't want it to do anything but go back to the spot in IE you left off -
Just edit the dword so that it is blank.
Bonza! That looks about right. Thanks for the info, galt. I'll check it out when I get into the registry.
Now, I just need a registry editor for WM2005. Can anybody suggest one?
Tre. It's freeware.

Nice one! Thank you galt and lautunno: I've installed Tre and fixed that registry value and it's sorted! Thanks for your help.
Hello,
how can i change the left or right softkeys from the HTC Herald ?
With PHM Registry Editor i found:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
I changed the string "open" value data from "\Windows\calendar.exe" to "\Windows\poutlook.exe" and the string "default" value data Calendar to E-Mail.
After this settings on the homescreen shows the HTC Herald on the left softkey "E-Mail", but when i pushed this key "Calendar" starts :-(
After a softreset it shows me again "Calendar" on the left side.
What can i do ??
Thanks for help,
bye Hans
Tweaks2k2 has a function that changes the soft keys.

Is there anyway that I can set a right softkey change in titanium? )Not left softkey, that is very easy to do with registry editor. But I can't find options like that for the right softkey which would probably be SK2)
For example:
My Photos Panel - All Photos = From Pictures & Videos App to HTC Album
My Music Panel - Library = From Windows Media Player to any other music application (S2P, Core Player, Kinoma Freeplay, Audio Manager, etc)
^Those really are the only tabs I want to change. Please help. PLEASE there has to be a way. Maybe somehow editing CRP files in the Windows directory, or changing the values in a registry editor in the same style as SK1TEXT, SK1URL, etc.
I've tried inserting my own keys into the registry : "SK2TEXT, SK2URL," and they didn't work.
Anybody??
is anyone out there to help me???? would cLauncher help me to do this ^??!?!
I believe thats only changeable in each plugin registry values, and some really need that key so I wouldnt advise it, you can however, use Gullum's Quick Launcher with the GP editor for that, but only in THAT plugin, not for the others. I havent tested CLaunch yet. :/
---edited---
go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\
there you have a list for default programs, just go through them and you will find what you need
for example, for audio manager open key :MSPIMG and edit string named 1. Put HTCalbum.exe and it will become your default picture browser
Hi guys!
I tried to change my right softkey from "Menu" to "BT Toggle" (a bluetooth switching program I've already installed) using Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 but it didn't work on my HD2.
When I restart the HD2, the key is changed to "BT Toggle" but after entering the PIN and after HTC sense started the key is named "Menu" again.
I looked into the registry but all is right there, the changes were saved. But why is the new softkey name only displayed before starting HTC sense and not after?
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Oliver
Home RSK
I wouldn't mess with the right soft key of sense.
Only the left.
How would you edit the quick tabs?
If you aren't using sense, only the WM interface, you can edit those SK's.
Did you get BT Toggle to work?
It wouldn't for me.

Using this post by vovichek62 as a guide I used the following process to change the right soft key:
Download LuaDec from here and extract
Copy \Windows\07c67730_manila from device to luadec folder (and somewhere else as a backup).
Open a command prompt there
Run
Code:
luadec 07c67730_manila > 07c67730_manila.lua
Open 07c67730_manila.lua in an editor like notepad
You need to change two functions. The fuction above "SetSoftKey = l_0_0" sets the text for the soft buttons. This is my modified line:
Code:
_application:SetRightSoftkey(Softkey(Locale:GetString("IDS_CONTACTS"), OnMenuPressed))
I think it was originally set to IDS_MENU. That "OnMenuPressed" is the function called when you press it.
So now you need to change that function - The function above "OnMenuPressed = l_0_0". On mine this is now:
Code:
l_0_0 = function()
_application.Navigation:Navigate(URL("Manila://people/browserlayer/peopleAll.page"), false)
end
Now, back in the command prompt run:
Code:
luac -o 07c67730_manila 07c67730_manila.lua
and copy 07c67730_manila back to your device.
If you were up for it you could probably copy some of the left soft key code to allow changing the right soft key in the registry.
Xaddict is right, once you do this you can no longer tweak your home buttons. If I need to change one I go back in to the registry and find:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\0\IsSet (where 0 is the button number) and change the value to 0. If you then restart manila (or your device) you can change that button. It will still show the old text and icon until you do. I also made a simple .reg which clears all the buttons, attached. For me it was worth this hassle as I could remove the People tab.
Tx fot BT Toggle
Nice one.
Thanks very much : )

iv just made a new 07c67730_manila file that reads from the registry
so all you have to do is download my 07c67730_manila file
http://www.filefront.com/16489283/07c67730_manila
then copy it to your windows folder (backup the old 07c67730_manila file)
then in registry at:
HKLM > Software\HTC\Manila
Change:
HomeRSKPath
HomeRSKText
HomeRSKArguments
to anything you like
for contacts:
HomeRSKPath Manila://people\browserlayer\?.page
HomeRSKText anything you like something liek contacts or all people
HomeRSKArguments leave this blank
how to remove quick Links without the menu:
all you do is hold the quick link you dont want for about 3-4 seconds and then drag it away this works on my dutty rom but gessing its the same for all roms
I am using HD2Tweaks - beats the hassle of backing up/copying manila files, editing registry entries - to assign the left and right softkey at the Home/Today screen.
But the available options are a fixed set.
Telephone (default for left), Menu (default for right), Backlight, Contacts, Contacts List, Notes, Calendar WM, Calendar WM (week view), Calendar WM (month view), New Appointment, Tasks, Messaging, SMS/MMS, Internet, Opera, Camera, Album, Comm Manager, File Explorer, Google Maps, Internet Sharing, MyPhone, RSS Hub, Radio FM, Windows Live, You Tube.

Before I installed S2U2 my phone used to lock my just pressing the end call/power button. now i have un-installed it it does not work.
The only way i can lock the phone now is by pressing the window button, and tapping the lock softkey
or
pressing and holding the physical power button and the lock device.
Can anyone tell me how to get this working again?
as i want to try the hd mini lock screen

Using a registry editor go to:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd
and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend from 0 to 1
where do i get a registry editor cab from?
mate... use google!
there are many different registry editors for windows mobile.
I use dotfreds task manger as my main registry editor but you may not like it as it is quite fiddly (not very finger friendly).
PHM registry editor is a good one as is IBE registry editor.... there are loads!
