Is possible to remap the PTT button? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi!
This is my first post on this forum (This Diamond is my first windows Mobile PDA).
Well, the question is about is (or not) possible to remap the PTT button, like in the Kaiser (Link to the post)? I find a bit stupid to take out the phone for just stop the music... when with a simple push of a button could be done!
I have tried to apply the same "patch" to the diamond, but obviously, it doesn't work!
Thanks!
PS: Sorry for my bad English.

There is a PTT button on the diamond?

my assumption would be the pickup/voice cmd button on the headset.

Has anyone remapped the answer button?

I have been searching all the forums for an answer with no luck so I am just going to ask...
I want to be able to activate MS Voice Command from the answer button on my wired headset (JAM). I guess that means that the answer button has to be remapped? Is there a program that can do this or do I have to fiddle with the registry? Sorry if the question has already been asked, I couldn't find it.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Matt
hehe, I would like to do that exact thing too....let me know if you find something out.!
The Mobidila.net 2.02 has the ability to assign the answer button to Mobidial...maybe U can look what it change in the registry files...and so U can find out how to change it... :roll:
regards,
Primoz
Thanks for the advice, I will have a look at mobidial. I was hoping to find a program that allows remapping of the answer button just like so many other programs remap buttons 1-5. Idealy a short button press for answer and a long button press for MS Voice Command. My Sony P800 worked that way, which was a nice system. I have been looking around on other forums and I'm surprised that most people are only interested in bluetooth headsets. Personally I prefer a nice sounding set of wired headphones for listening to my ogg files.
Matt
Matterhorn, have you found a way to map the headset button? I've alse been looking for ages for this.
Me too! Please post if you found a solution!
Cheers
I think Vito buttonmapper might work.
I can't test it as I'm still waiting for my MDA compct.
Vision 8)
Hi All,
I just tried Vito Buttonmapper. Unfortunatly the remapping is limited to the standard 4 buttons you can choose in \settings\buttons.
This doesn't solve the voicecommand-headsetcontrol problem.
I hope someone can tell me otherwise, or come up with a solution, 'cause the voice command control with my headset is the only thing I'm missing.
Thanx for all the information in the forum!
cheers,

HI All,
I just installed MS Voice Command 1.5 on my new Jam and I can't even get the AGC Microphone to stay on "enable" after I select it. Further, in Power Buttons options, I can't find the Voice Command option to assign to a button. What I did was copied the voicecmd file to the Windows\Start Menu so it would appear as one of the options in "Power Buttons"
I can't figure out why it won't keep the settings. After selecting it, I go back only to see the button is back to the default assignment. Please help. I got MS voice Command to work as long as I click on the shortcut I created. I need to be able to map it to a button. Thanks.
Hi Gybanez,
I can't help you with to the point advice, I'd just tell what I did and it worked for my. Hope it'll work for you aswell.
I installed Voice Command 1.5 from my computer. After a soft reset, I could choose Voice Command in Settings/personal/buttons.
I asigned it to the record button, 'cause untill now, I haven't used it. Works really well,
it just doesn't work wirh my headset...
The ACG microphone stays on disable! (Well, the microsoft manuel told me so...)
cheers,
Karolinger
thanks karolinger. I did it again and finall it works. The ACG Mic is disabled but it does work so I won't complain. I still have Blue Angel and I did install MS Voice Command 1.5 and didn't have any issues with it. Also, ACG setting stays on "enable" Thanks for the advice.
Hi gybanez,
Glad I could help you!
Maybe I stupid question... what does the ACG Mic? What chances when it's enabled?
cheers,
karolinger

I'm going to find that app right now!

Want to remap hardware buttons freely...how ? (and some other tweaking-requests)

Does anyone know a registry hack yet for making it possible to remap ALL hardware buttons (or at least the OK button below the jog-wheel, cause this seems to be hard-coded to the Windows-menu) !?
Preferably a reg-hack that (re)enables this options in the regular \Settings\Buttons tab...
Another problem i want to fix (apart from the ROM being immature) is the fact that i have to go all the way into the Bluetooth-settings on the CommManager screen to connect my Jabra 620s in stereo/audio-mode, which is quite anoying and timeconsuming...
Some other strange thing is that when i want use Voicecommand (while playing audio) to either call someone or speak a command to WMP, this will only work when i use VC-assigned button on the device, and NOT with the answer/end button on my headset (wich should be working like the VC-button on device).
Anyone able to help me here ?
PS: i'm quite experienced WM user dating back to the Wyvern/PalmsizePC CE 2.12 devices...but i just can't seem to find my way around these huge registries in todays devices anymore... guess i'm getting old...
Anyone please ...?
I would like to know too. Style-wise, there are a lot of things HTC got wrong with the Trinity. In fact, I found the HTC Wizard better designed.
Damn thing needs IE, Messaging, Comm Manager buttons and a Volume slide but instead it has 2 OK buttons and a jog/dial which I rarely use.
Not to mention how buggy the release ROM is, what with huge delays between standby mode and MiniSD cards requiring re-insertion to work properly.
P.S. It would be nice to be able to change the functionality of the jog/dial wheel to volume control.
Yup - this is driving me nuts too.
I have 7 hardware buttons (inc the power button) on the trinity and I can only map 3 of them from Settings.
It's a real handicap (& Voice Command is conflicting with the voice dial button - or at least that's what I think is happening with my repeated failed installations).
Some wisdom from the forum would be almost as appreciated as a fix
Thanks,
M1

I don't have my Trinity yet, but have you tried some of the 3rd party Button remappers that are available? Magic Button etc.

I got my Trinity last friday and am using a 2Gb MiniSD card and so far no problems with it. I feel no real delay when coming out of standby mode and no problem at all with the MiniSD card, maybe you got a early version of the ROM that contained this particular problems.
I do agree with you with the OK buttons, but i also understand the way they were designed, the button close to the jog wheel is to be used together with the jog wheel so that you can single handedly use the machine.
Lets see if someone suggests a good 3rd party tool to remap the buttons and then everybody is happy ;-)

I am able to get VC to work with call/answer button when using my Motorola headsets H300 and HS805. The phone needs to be out of standby mode ie screen needs to be on. I can't seem to get it to work with my R35 I.tech stereo wireless headset. I guess this could mean compatibility issues between headsets? Does the call/answer button work if you are not listening to music?

Yes...you're right...it does work when the screen of my trinity is on. But offcourse when listening to music the screen is gonna be off...
The button on the headset does activate voicecommand when device is on (ie screen on) and no music is playing. But i'd rather have it understand my commands like "what track is this" while music plays (without having to take out the phone of my pocket).
As for the button-mapping: i'm familiar with the buttonmappers out there, but another application on my trinity is just not what i need... Is there really no way to get to this functionality through the registry ? I've searched quite a chunk of the registry but gave up; i just can't find it...

Precisely: one handed operation... That's what i want, so i want the button next to the jogdial to be the ALT+TAB function (which is available through Spb PocketPlus)...so i want to be able to map this to whatever button i like, not just the 2 options HTC gave me... (i don't count press'n hold as an extra button).
I think it's quite ridiculous to have TWO buttons activating the startmenu, and have them hardcoded to that. What's the point in 2 buttons doing the same thing ?
Being able to change the 'Windows' button woukld also be a fine sollution...
Try AE Button Plus. Your solution will not lie in the registry.

Just tried, it works (AE Button Plus -> File -> Add button)
But i found a little bug, after i used it to swap Right Softkey and Start Menu Button, Start Menu Button works fine (changed to be Right Softkey) but for Right Softkey, no matter how i press it, start menu will not be shown !!!
Because, after i press Right Softkey, Start Menu Button event is triggered, but Start Menu Button is set to be Right Softkey by AE Button Plus, so at the end pressing Right Softkey will be regarded as pressing REAL Right Softkey rather than Start Menu.
The most strange thing is that such bug will not happen when pressing pressing Start Menu Button =.="
Any idea ? How to solve it ?
Thanks in advance

And pressing Camera button, the Start Menu Button event will be triggered. it seems that there're some bugs in "Add button" functions of AE Button Plus

Hi guys,
I'm too looking for a way to remap the startmenu-button for e.g. starting an application. No 3rd party software I tried so far is able to do so...
Any suggestion how to reassign the startmenue button to call a specific application?
Cheers

AEButton Plus maps all but the standby button...
... on my Wizard. Well, it doesn't touch the soft-reset, the camera gets funky when I try to map it, and I can't seem to move the vibrate function off the hold "Comm Manger" Key. Given I've got 50 different hardware button options, (or 37 added if I leave all the default functioning in place) with this nifty shareware (basically fully functional if you want to use it free forever), who cares about the dumb camera button (not in the count above).
My biggest problem is remebering where I mapped it all. My second is making decisions about how to map them.... :|| (that's a repeat sign in music-talk)
You gotta try it. I'd be curious to find out how it works on your hardware.

AEB Plus....

Does anyone know if AEB works in the TP2 I'd very much like to change the buttons, I miss my scroll wheel and I'd like to make the volume rocker scroll up and down instead
Cheers,
DJ
I'd have made ONLY: 1 press volume button down to ''scroll down'' & long press same button to ''speaker vol down''. Same for volume button up.
I"d try make something with other buttons but unsucsessfull

Its very unstable with the other buttons...volume button I haven't tried.
Tried all buttons, but most of them won't work.
Volume works great for single-double-tripple and long, but that's about it.
Did not find any change in Menu-button or changes on phone buttons. I could not find the 'Button 1' on the device.
So, it was a great program for my qtek9000, it's almost useless for this one... I hope they will be able to get all buttons!
Besides, I'm hoping for someone to hack the zoom-slide to change it into 4 buttons... (eg. in this order: left-up-down-right so we might use AE to change those buttons)
I use the latest version on my TPro2 and it works like a charm.
No problems at all.

Does someone know, how to access this key
I'm using AEBplus on my HTC Touch2 aka Mega and would like to remap the key with an arrow to the left. See also the picturee.
Does somebody know how to do this. In the program I can't find it.

Sorry to say that, but with this device, there is no need for AEB anymore.
Look for this App and be happy...;-)

Now the answer did come !!!
See here :
As for your question:
At least some of the HTC devices implements “back” button scan code to generic “Ok” button. So you could just try to re-define “Ok” in bplus settings list and see if it will work on “back” button.
There are 3 situations with buttons:
- button is already in list but could be named differently.
- button could be added via File -> Add Button in bplus settings menu.
- button is implemented on a driver level making impossible interception by application-level software like BPlus.
Regards
cimber
PS : the "back"- button is assigned on the HTC Touch2 like the "ok" - button in AEBplus

Anyone know how to re-map camera app to camera button on X2?

Accidentally screwed over some files >.>
I got same problem. I assign task manager to x-panel manager button, unfortunately it change camera button to run task manager too. After removing assignment camera button not working.
AEButton assign camera button together with panel button, recognizing them as one (ctr key).

Use the OK key instead and assign a long press for task manager and a short press for ok key.
It works flawlessly
HOW do you assign a button? You need a program for that? If so, is there a way to assign the voice command to a button?

Maybe, but I cant help a lot here, VC is not available in Italian, and I feel a bit stupid talking with a machine in English
So, I never used it.
Well, you could use German or French to talk to your phone too
I will give this program a try. And report back. By the way, what are you using this for? And if one assigns only 1 button, will the rest be changed too, or only that one. Don't want any more trouble with the X2.... if I can avoid it
By the way, what are you using this for?

I use (and used it for years) it mainly to remap the volume rocker as a "fake jog dial" (very handy to read ebooks) and because the AEBP task manager is quickest task manager to use when you have to quick swich from an app to another or to kill a stuck application w/o messing with the touch screen.

button remaping

I tried to copy the information here with no luck.
I would like to remap some buttons to gain camera functionality.
1.) the "back" button
- the long press of the back button is not being used by anything.
-remap the long press of the 'back' button to the short press of the camera button.
--or---
2.)the "send' button
-The green phone button (i'm calling it the send button) is not being used by me. I use my headset for voice commands, or the touch screen to open the phone app.
-I would like to completely remap it to the camera button, short and long press (not sure if camera has a long press, if it doesn't i have another idea)
3.)menu key
- the long press of the windows key is worthless. maybe use that.
A big thank you.
