I changed settings/buttons to MS Voice Command...the only one available on the HD is "long press" of the answer button. It works fine to activate MS Voice command.

Hi, I tried this with the calender but I wasn't succesful. I can change the softkey name but the program didn't start. I used different values for HomeLSKPath (\Windows; \Windows\calender.exe) but got only error messages. Maybe I did something wrong?! Can you help me?
Many thanks in advance
Is there a way to change the Hardware-Keys? (Today, Enter)

I think you are looking for a program like "action screen". Try searching for it! Its from Fabliv and the newest version is the v6.

It's not possbile?
Yes,
You must soft reset.
Thanks a lot,
I did a soft reset (turn off-turn on). I also see the changed name (from Telefon into Kalender; it's a german version).
But:
If I press the soft key I get a warning, that the program has a unvalid security certificate or could not find or parts of the programm are missing (if I use \Windows\calender.exe). Further ideas what my problem is?
Thanks
Turn off then turn on is not a soft reset. Remove the back cover and poke into the reset hole is one way to do it.

Ok, I thought turn off and turn on is like a reboot of the phone. I use the reset you suggest but I got the same error message.

please check the path andprogram that you have linked to the softkey. Try running that program from start/program and see if the problem is there.
Thanks a lot eaglesteve!
Your advice to put the program into the program tab of tf3d was the solution. Thus I found the regestry entry and also the correct link I have to use. To my surprise it was linked to \Windows\Startmenü\Kalender.lnk and not to the direct exe file in the Windows root folder. After using this path it worked immediately. Btw without any reset!
Change Softkey zu "Sync Data"
Hi,
in TF3D - settings there is the first item "sync data" (in german Daten synchronisieren - Acticesync und Internetdaten), which start directly the synchronisation whis my Exchange-Server.
I would like to put this on my left Softkey instead of "Telefon", but I don't know, which *.exe oder whatever I have to chose therefore.
Does somebody have an idea?

Hello,
try this one for the Pathvalue: \Windows\Startmenü\Programme\ActiveSync.lnk
Good luck.
Thank you very much, but it is not the right Solution, yet.
This opens the ActiveSync Screen, but starts not automatically the synchronisation process.
Maybe there's missing an additional option like ...ActiveSync.lnk -option ?
Just wanted to thank you all for the information; worked perfectly (linked the start menu .lnk item).

I installed the app to remap the softkey buttons and I would like to delete it.
The delete is done but now after each Off/On, a message like : "Unable to find [...]softkey app[...]" appears. I searched everywhere in the phone & in the registry base but I can't delete this message from every power on, & I don't want to make a hard reset. Has someone the same problem ?
Thanks 4 help...
it's in the "notifications queue" - have a try of the program at the URL below - it allows you to see what's in the queue and delete the notification if necessary.

Greetings,
I'd like to remap the left softkey on the Today screen to go to something else besides calendar. I've searched all the forums and have turned up several apps (vijaytoggletoday, smartskey, and some others) but they all seem to be geared toward either totally removing the soft key menu bar from the Today screen, or changing the behavior of the hardware soft key buttons. I just want to change what the left soft key points to from Calendar to something else. I saw a post sometime ago where someone had remapped it to Comm Manager, so I know it's possible. How do I do it?
Thanks!
SP
Search google for soft key changer.
Also available on Buzzdev.net
Also in a registry hack on the wiki, in the Today keys.
V
what did you find that removed the softkeys all together?
Regarding remapping, look for SoftKeyApplet or SoftKeyAppletEx ..
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft \Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft \Today\Keys\112\(Default ) = Calendar (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft \Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft \Today\Keys\113\(Default ) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx
gravejoker vjtoggletodayII will remove the softkeys
Thanks guys...
Chaotic, exactly what I was looking for.. .thanks!
Grave, as chaotic said, vijaytoggletoday will do it, as well as DCINoBar.

To access the call log, you can do it programmatically, or use VJPhoneShortcuts.

Nobody know which is the .exe file that start the incoming/outcoming call list ? Thanks
I dont think you can get to the call history using an exe file .. has to be done programatically ..
I think I already indicated above, VJPhoneShortcuts.

First you must install "NewMenu", then create a new item, then choose "callhistory.exe" from windows folder. That's easy!

There isn't callhistory.exe in the windows folder.
Try what Vijay suggested .. that should give you shortcuts to the Call history and Speed dial .. then remap one of the soft keys to it ..
And no .. I dont think there's any CallHistory.exe anywhere ..
Hi guys, how can we change the "Phone" and "Contacts" buttons at the bottom of the screen? At Helmi-the greatest-'s WM5 ROM there were little programs to do so.
Anyway, there were lots of little programs and settings at Helmi's WM5 ROM. Where can we find them for WM6 ROM?
here you go...
Thank you raymonds and of course baniaczek.

can you explain further what you wanted to create shortcuts mate? is it the soft button(left and right) at the bottom. If so, just use the built in soft key customizer in the ROM.
hi brian
i use the key customizer, but when i change it, it's say "error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename"
what should i do ?
thank you

do it this way, lets say you have installed htc action screen and wanted to create a short cut on the left soft key.
open soft key customizer, then select customize.
label anything like NEW or HTCA or anything that you want. (In my case I use new) click ok
Then select the correct path with the .EXE e.g. /windows/HTCActionScreen.exe (I believe it should be written precisely if it's upper case or lower case so correct me if im wrong hehehe)
You are almost done! just select anything you want on the right softkey.
Yes on soft reset, presto! a new short cut on the left softkey!
Hope this helps
ow, i see how it works now, thanks brian
oh, i forgot to mention that calendar, contacts, messaging (in the option) don't work, if i select it then tap the key, it say "error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename"
how can i fix this ?
is there anyway to deactivated the softkey customizer ?
i mean to change back to the default setting
thank you

all the options worked for me. calendar/contacts et al. I personally use it to assign htc action screen on left soft key.
If you want the default ones, just run soft key customizer again then select what was the default key before then soft reset.
that's the problem, the calendar, contacts and messaging didn't work, so I can't select one of them for the right side softkey
Oh well, this is my first problem with this ROM, overall I like this ROM
Thank you

Right & left SoftKeys can be changed using CERegedit while synced to PC, or PHM Regedit directly on your phone.
The keys in question can be found here:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
I have mapped
HomeLSKPath to \Windows\tasks.exe
with a corresponding link name at
HomeLSKText of Tasks
There are ways to map to other Manila shortcuts like All People.

So now everytime I flash, I just run this cab to change the registry so I get my preferred home page links back.
There is a limit to what can be customised.
In Settings, I couldn't find a way to change LSK All Settings from connection settup to actual settings. Dutty did it in one of his ROMs.
thnx guys...that works
thats it, cool !! thanx a lot. I switched the left homekey on my TP2 in Bxsteez ROM from phone to all contacts. Much better Who needs a "Phone soft button" ??

Hi Xaddict,
Great stuff, I want to change the LSK to DeviceLock. Changing the text was obviously no problem, but do you perhaps know the path?
I tried what I got from total commander as path: \windows\VJDeviceLock.exe, but that doesnt really work..
Thanks,
PB
