Locked Keys - Touch 3G General

Hi
One thing i miss from my old touch is the option to have the hardware keys Unlocked so the phone can be turned on with the press of any button and not just the power button
I did not find any such option in the settings menus , can anyone provide any solution ?? ( e.g registry hack )
Thanks

I didn't understand exactly what you mean, but you can lock the phone when press and hold the right button (default setting) and unlock from touch screen after that.

True. However, I remember in Kaiser (TyTn II) there is a lock icon where you can lock the phone just by tapping it. Does anyone know what application Jade uses (to lock when we press n hold the right button) so that we can put somewhere like in the Programs tab. Thanks.

what he meant is that the "device lock" icon is not in the setting anymore. i miss this function as well..
not sure if they left it out in the stock rom... now everytime i want to use the phone i would need to press the power button

I mapped my left softkey to lock the phone...
Just point to \Windows\EndKey.exe
HTH...

change JogWheel behavior

Hello,
Just got my TyTn and got a question.
If i got a long email (about 34k just plane text) this is a lot of text.
With my tytn and the jogwheel it is possible to scroll down a page (or scroll up a page of course)
I was wondering, is there a way to make this shorter, so that the jogwheel doesnt schroll a complete page, but a half a page or maybe just 3 lines.
When i read a complete page the backight of my tytn turns dark.
Reminder: i do not want to change the settings in backlight! this is exactly the way i want it, but when i scroll more often the backlight stay on.
Please help
I hope it is possible.
Paul

Been playing around with my new TyTn also. I'm about to install all the software I had on my Wizard, when I was using my Wizard, Tweaks2k2 had an option for smooth scrolling, I'll see if it will change anything.

Make sure you turn off the volume adjustments that are assigned by default to Button #4075. After doing this my buttons function normally allowing me to call the start menu from the side button and the volume calls are eliminated.

I use the latest AEBPlus. If you use the add button function you can add the OK buttons and retain the start menu actuation via the side OK button while making those buttons actually close applications.

Under Options>Volume Adjustments make sure all entries are NOT checked.

Hmmm, strange. i can't seem to find that option under options. We are talking about options in AEBplus right? Only thing that says volume on it is "restore volume slider". Is this the one I should uncheck all items?
Thanks for helping out dude.

That's the correct name. I was coming from my memory. There are three options in there make sure none are checked.
Thanks for helping out aadadams. Still having problems though. After a while the windows button won't open start menu and neither will ok button on the side of Tytn. Too bad, I really liked the function to be able to really close programs with hardware ok button.
Not entirely related but similar, I was wondering whether it is possible to get the scroll wheel to scroll quickly through the contacts list using the 'big letter' lookup? I know of a couple of people who say the phone has randomly done this for them but they can't figure out how.

I do not have a problem with the side button. When pressed while on the today screen it launches the start menu. How are your buttons mapped? Have you assigned multiple functions to these buttons that fail over time?

Nope, only thing I've done is add button and pressed ok hardware button. Then I mapped it to close active program or whatever the term is.
It shows up as button 4075 I think.
Wierd, I did basically the same thing with that button but I remapped several others to extend their fuunctionality. I have never had that happed. My next question is what other apps are you running especially immature apps that may cause the conflict.
Hmm, not running that much else. Wisbar advance and pocketbreeze. That's about it.
I do not use Wisbar apps and sine it does make changes to native start and ok functions it could be the problem. Run without it for day or so and see what happens.
With only wisbar and no aeb+ everything has been ok, will uninstall wisbar and try only aeb instead.

How to remap right softkey to "Standby" or Sleep!

Hi all,
I do not know if that is a silly question or not :$ but I wanted to change the manila home right soft key to sleep phone ("Standby")..Have PsShut but dont like everytime to open the program to able to put phone into sleep mode..also have Advanced Config program but do not know if it is possible to map in advanced config app the right soft key to sleep..
Btw, I have original 1.93 ROM.
Thanks million.
I have mapped power button to shutdown app I can choose action seft reset turn off device or just turn off display but I dont understand your question because single click power button sleep your device...youre NOOB man!!!
Well, I have managed to remap the right softkey on home screen to togle between ring and vibrate.
I am using little prog Vibra (Switch) that is mapped to the key.
Just two registry settings:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeRSKPath="Program Files\Vibra (Switch)\Vibra (Switch).exe"
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeRSKText="whatever you want displayed on the soft key"
I got the inspiration for this setting from the "Second Today" Tweak.

lol..your great dude. Thanks for the precious answer. Your "the" man.
2nd: What makes you that upset that I want to use a soft key to sleep my device better than the power button?? Its easier to sleep the device via a soft key than a hw one.
Dont pass by again . Thanks.

Device lock - am I blind?

For the life of me I can't find the device lock in settings, you know the one that gives you the option to lock all buttons except power button on device lock.
I would like to be able to turn the machine on by pressing something other than the power button but it seems it cannot be done.
Am I missing something?

I have managed to use the HTC lock but don't know how i did it. I do think that a good lock would be a plus for this phone.

What do you mean by 'HTC lock'? Where did you find this on the HD? I'm looking for the setting where you specify whether you want to lock all buttons or not?
In Settings > Buttons, go to the End Key tab and select the action you want when holding the End key. You can mae it pop up a menu if you want...
One of the options is Lock device.

hmm, yes, i found this but that is to lock the device using the long press end key.
What I am looking for is the setting where (at least on the diamond) you specify that the device locks all the buttons a) all the time b) none of the time or c) only when device is locked. i'm sure it was called button lock or similar.
That´s my problem, too. I would like to power on my HTC by using the volume buttons because the "power on" button is so small. Too small for my fingers
This = power on the HTC by using the volume button = is a possible option on the HTC Kaiser und Diamond.
Another question: Does a registry key for the button lock exist?
Thanks in advance

Suspend the HD

Hi All,
Is there any small application, which can simulate I press the power button?
Because the power button is hard to press, I wish to add a shortcut to this application, and tap the screen instead.
I found some which is to turn off the screen only, but I want to put the machine in suspend mode just like press the power button.
Thanks.

Thats not true, you are pressing the button in the wrong way .
Read this.
If you really want a application that can suspend your device look for psShutXp or iLauncher. I think there are really many applications able to do that.
sure there are tons of applications for pocketpc which when started turn off the pda
http://www.google.dk/search?source=...off+program&btnG=Google-søgning&meta=lr=&aq=f
used a few of them myself works just fine
Haa......I also read this post before, I knew how to press the power button correctly......
To be more precise, I don't want to press the power button frequently in order to protect it from damage.

Hi,
How do you change the soft key to this exe.
And can this exe be used to wake up the device by tapping on the screen.
Thanks
You can modify it by changing registry
\HKLM\Software\HTM\Manila\HomeLSK* and HomeRSK* values.
I think a hardware trigger is needed if you want to wake up the device.
To wake up by tapping on the screen, the device cannot be in suspend mode then, just the screen is off.

How to make shortcut to "lock device"??

Is there anyway to make a shortcut to "lock" in Start --> lock ? No app works fine for me, so I have to do it manualy. Thanks
Several options:
1. Set your long press end-key to map to lock.
2. If you use WinMo 6.5, the left soft key in the start menu is for lock.
3. Try this.
I got another question... is there anyway to change START --> LOCK to a different program?
I use S2U2 and I would like to have the LOCK soft key after going into the Start Menu to point to S2U2 instead of the default lock application.

Tap the power button, it locks. Works great. I hated this phone until I got that app, because I kept calling people for no reason.
