I know you can map the start manu to any of the hard buttons but I would like to map it to one of the soft buttons under the screen.
I know how to map the soft buttons to any application but I'm not sure how the start menu is called.
In the "Buttons" setting at "2. Assign a program:" you have to scroll up the list to the entries in "<...>". Those are the various assignable system features. One of it is "<Start Menu>".
For instance I assigned "<Start Menu>" to the Voice Dialer button and
"<OK/Close>" to the Internet Explorer button - very handy....
I want to assign it to one of the soft keys, not one of the keys you can map in "buttos"
Hi everybody,
I made almost the same.
the pitty of this way, it's the hard it becomes to navigate with one hand.
The thing I try to changes is when I use the phone, to set up the arrow key to access to the "Call History" or the "Speed Dial numbers" like with the Blue Angel (QTEK9090).
Does somebody know how to do it?
I tried AEBPlus, which is a freeware app that allows you to map your harware buttons to up to launch up to 3 different apps each (one click for first app, 2 clicks for second, 3 clicks for third). BUT... its not yet designed for the Wizard, so it does not recognize the soft key buttons yet. It also does not recognize the Comms Button...
So when I installed, I mapped IE button to 1 click = "OK" and 2 clicks "IE" and the Messaging button as 1 click = "start" and 2 clicks = "Messaging"
For some reason it remapped my "Comms Button" to "IE" and as I cant see that button any more in "settings/buttons" I cannot change it back :shock: But I have "Comms" set up as one of my "Start menu" items, so I can get to it via the button I mapped to the start menu.
I e-mailed the designer to see if he plans to update it for the Wizard. The wizard is included on his compatibility matrix, so he may be planning to. If he does that and includes the "soft key buttons" and the "comms button" we would be set.
Perhaps anyone else thats interested could e-mail him too and see if he will update it for a "donation" from each of us..? Its Alexander at : [email protected]

try this....
Just load Smartskey. It gives you a lot of secondary functions for soft keys and buttons. I really like it because it has default settings to open the start menu on a long press of the left softkey button, and to do an ok/close on a long press of the right softkey button. It can also manage OMAPClock overclocking functions, if you drop a copy of that app in the same folder as Smartskey.
For those who are not familiar with this nifty yet inexpensive bit of software, AE Button allows multiple actions (up to 4) to be programmed to the buttons of your Pocket PC...and is perfectly compatible with the Athena.
I really feel the need for this after having had so many buttons on my long gone HTC Hermes.
I've configured some basic functions on mine so far with pleasing results and no incompatibilities so far.
Joystick configuration:
1 click = 'Enter' (no change there)
2 clicks = 'Open File Explorer' (that has simplified things for me somewhat and is very intuitive to use this way as 2 clicks opens a folder and 1 click confirms my selection)
Comm Manager configuration:
1 click = 'Switch on wi-fi' another click switches it off
Long Press = 'Switch on Blutooth' another Long press switches it off
Camera Button Configuration:
1 Click = 'Camera application' (no change here)
Long Press = 'Opens Resco Photo Viewer' (similar category of applications on one button - again intuitive)
OK Button Config: (On device - not keyboard)
1 click = 'Really closes apps' (linked to Wisbar's OK/Close function)
That's all I've done so far, but then I have at least 2-3 more configurations per button if I need it, which has also freed up space on the 'Start Menu' - only 7 choices allowed by default.
It's worth a look if you don't allways want to go through the various option menu's to get to that one or several important apps or folders or to simply initiate something.
Just considering a quick soft-reset by double clicking the Windows key...1 click brings up the cascading menu (wisbar)...would be nice to soft-reset on a double click (but this particular Windows key is usually tricky if at all possible to reconfigure like the other ones).
Anyway just wanted to share this in case anyone else found it useful.
THANK YOU!

I'm so grateful that you posted this. I was about to purchase Vito Button Manager but the program isn't exactly what I wanted. You can't see the joystick, ok button on device, etc. And I wanted more options, like the four you mentioned here. Great job on providing us with this info....and in my case just in time. Thanks again bro!
So can you program every button on the device? Even the Windows icon button and the browser button?
Thanks from me too. The one thing I knew I would miss from my current PDA (which has 6 programmable buttons each in press and press and hold mode).
Looks like a great alternative.
Great heads up thanks. I'll be adding this as soon as I've customised my Vista-esque, TrueVGA, WA/WAD setup to my liking (spending waaay too long on it!).
Glad I could help guys.
BTW, the 'Windows key' under the 'OK' button (on the device itself) won't let me configure it, so I have now added a 'Long Press' to the Joystick to soft-reset. It works very well and quicker than 'psshutXP' or any other SIP alternative.
Also changed the 'Comunication Manager Button' to:
1 click = Wi-fi on/off
2 clicks = Bluetooth on/off
Long Press = Opens Comm Manager (retaining original functionality)
Note: Had to enable the long press mode of 'Voice Recorder' to = Open Comms Mangr aswell, otherwise it caused a conflict.
How did you get the joystick and the OK button to program? I tried ADD BUTTON but no luck. What hex shows up for the added buttons?
When I did the install I got the 3 buttons plus press and hold, green phone, red phone, left softkey, right softkey, up, down, left, right, enter/action, vol up, vol dn.
Hope this helps.

Lucky for you I'm still up. Ha ha.
Anyway...the Joystick button is already recognized as 'Enter/Action'. Simply select that option and click in the big blank box directly below.
1st Option = 3.'Handle by AEBPlus'
2nd Option = 1. 'Single press' &
3rd Option= 'Press Enter' (this retains the default function)
Then 2nd option = 2. 'Double press' (in the drop down option box below chose) 2. 'Run application' & below that chose 'File Explorer'
Then return to 2nd option drop down box again:
= 4. 'Long press' & in the box below chose;
= 37. 'Soft-Reset your Device'.
That's it!
The OK button should show up as 'Win Key', Button #4075...I have only assigned this to open 'cascading start menu', as this is a system key/button as is the 'Windows' key directly beneath it and they are either complex or presently incapable of being re-mapped.
Hope the above explanation was not too confusing, but it's late and I'm probably functioning on 0.001% of the less than 5% of brain power I'm capable of using at best. lol.
Good luck
Thanks Mackaby007!
I was able to get the OK key mapped as:
1. Show today
2. Ostia (my GPS)
I figure I'll add ilauncher and always be only two taps from the app I need.

There's another button in the menu which selects 'Voice Recording' on a long press through the comms button. This is causing your conflict.
You need to assign control of that function to AEB as well and then assign Comms manager via long press.
So effectively you have to configure that 'long press' function twice! Once in the Comms Button and once for the pre-programmed 'Voice ' recorder, as it uses the same button.
Hope that was clear. Let me know how you got on.
well, I have assigned 'long press' function twice like you said but no effect...
Hi Mackaby007, thanks for sharing.
I am using the Dopod U1000 CHT, loaded the English cab, and always got problem going into the Buttons setting (just hang), need to soft reset and go in again. When I am able to go into the buttons setting, I can only config (under normal windows setting) these buttons
Button1, Camera
Button2, Opera Browser
Button3, Comm Mgr
Button3 (press & hold), Voice Recorder
I tried using BurrOak Hotbutton Plus V3.0, new version, with nicer graphics. Assign HotButton Plus to a button3 (biggest easiest to press) - repeatedly pressing the button will cycle through your jog tasks (I have enable Phone & SPB full screen keyboard).
http://www.burroak.on.ca/hbplus.html
Anyone can provide me the full register for the hardware button, so I can also control other button (press & hold)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys, currently I have only 40C1 (button1, camera), 40C2 (button2, Opera Browser), 40C3 (button3, Comm Mgr) and 40C4 (button3 press & hold, voice recorder)
The AE button plus ver 2.41 onwards cause problem with CallSMS Blocker. If AEB is installed on the device then the CallSMS Blocker causes the phone to hang. The PPC's other functions continue to work properly...Any body faced such problem??

Hi johnnykok. Sorry can't help you with that app. It's the first time I've seen it. Looks nice though.
Having said that, I would imagine that the memory footprint of this app might be bigger than that of AEB, plus I have no issues with AEB, so probably won't even look at anything else.
I usually stick to what works for me unless I come across a problem. Sorry.

Try version 2.51 That's what I'm using. C if you still get that conflict....if so, write to the developers as they are pretty good and will try to incorporate a fix by the next release, but try their latest version first.
asci said:

Asci...you have to assign the long press function to 2 different buttons.
1st button is the comms button (above the power button)
2nd button is the same button physically, but it's the long press function that Windows has assigned to it, which is 'voice recorder'. That virtual button is in the main menu and has an icon that looks like a cassette. You have to configure that button to allow AEB to handle it first, then assign the long press function of it to open comms manager.
If you don't do it this way, there is a conflict because windows has assigned that function on a long press and you have already assigned a function to that using the comms button....it's all a bit confusing.
See the images below. Hope this helps.

Would you have any screenshots of what this utility does? I couldn't find any on the website provided.
Also, doesn't the Athena/x7500/Advantage come with a Task Manager that allows for this functionality already? Start, Settings, System...then click on Task Manager.
Is there a way to change the behavior of the Start Menu Button? Basically i'd rather have it simply show the today screen rather than the actual menu. Alternatively i'd even prefer that it ignore the press and not show the menu. With many of us already having application launchers on the today screen, the start menu is redundant.
I apologize in advance if this is inappropriate for this forum.
To avoid not being able to access the start menu at all, you could enable it with a long key press of the start menu button.
Tap = return to Today Screen
Hold = show Start Menu
This would seem like a nice thing to have. Is such a thing possible? Perhaps with Mortscript?
What PDA do you have?
If you have a PDA/phone you just do a single press of the "hang up" button?
WM itself doesn't allow to change the start menu action. However, it's possible to put another app on top, like WisBar Advance, SKMenu, and similar tools do. But I don't know of any free and lightwight app which only replaces the start menu button.

I agree! Have searched this for a long time, but it seems it can't be done.
I would love if Visual Task Manager started when i press the windows icon.
Please return if you find a application to replace the start menu button. Thanks, i offer a kiss in payment
This program will do it. http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-gspocketmagic-v1-32-19.html
Just that the icon becomes so ugly but i think it's worth it
hi i remeber there was a free app that allowed to set one hardware button to have 2 functions ie short press and long press, does anyone know where the link/post is for the app? or even a app i can buy?

Wow - this aebplus is the most useful app I have found for the xperia.. definitely worth the $7 i paid for registration. i hate relying on the touchscreen since one, it is more difficult to find the buttons, and two, the touchscreen doesn't always respond immediately or accurately. navigating using the crappy windows media interface is a thing of the past and works better than inconsistent navigation of the touchflo or spb shell interfaces.
here's how i've set mine up so that i almost never have to use the touchscreen and can do everything in a few button presses
left silver key - press once - opens up messaging to get to e-mails
left silver key - press twice - opens up start menu (can get to the five or so programs stickied there or go to programs and settings with the d-pad)
left silver key - long press - opens up comm manager (not needed much since i can toggle wifi and bluetooth with the action list)
right silver key - press once - MS voice command
right silver key - press twice - open task manager to switch b/w apps
ok button - press twice - opens up action list (rotate screen, toggle bluetooth/wifi, soft reset, turn off
end button - press twice - close active application
Hello,
I also bought this usful application. But I have problems to configure the "panel" button.
I added the panel button and configure it. When I press the button, the configured action is executed, but the panel is also still executed
Any ideas?

i think you may be stuck with the panels button being unmappable right now. let's hope someone can figure it out though.
might be best to speak to the apps developers to get X1 support built in to allow the panel button remapping.
I sent Alexander an email and he answered yesterday. I got the following answer:
My understanding is, that he is not able to solve the problem because the button is processed on driver level. So we have to find a solution to disable this part of the driver which sounds not so easy to handle....
Bad news for me because I didn't use the panels...
stefan

Hello Stefan,
Thanks, it is always nice to know if you find this utility useful.
As for the “panel” button. The behaviour you describe most likely caused by “panel” button is processed on a driver level. This makes it impossible to disable original functionality by method BPlus uses.
So you could just search for another solution and it probably is in forums already. I have no X1 somewhere around to play with (unfortunately) but could suggest 2 ideas:
- Usually this “driver-level” functionality finally starts an application placed in /Windows/ folder. You could find this application (or link sometimes) and overwrite with “empty” application or link. Sometime it will require .CAB file creation due to ROM file protection.
- or default application to run on “panel” press could be specified in registry. Just search the registry for it and change to do nothing.
There are other approaches for “default” action possible but above are most simple and well-known.
Regards,
Alexander

How're you doing with battery life? Some people notice their battery dies quicker, some don't and I unfortunately fall into the former group. It's definitely one of the most useful thing I have ever bought but had to uninstall as my battery was draining fairly quicker than usual, shame though.
You can also try my X1ButtonMapper app that can be found in this forum. It allows for assigning long press actions for softkey and volume rocker. Besides that, it allows for Ok short and long press remapping, mapping missing Fn+Key, Setting Ctrl on keyboard and some more. It is for free and I haven't had and heard about any battery drain issue.
I recommend X1ButtonMapper it extends the keyboard and other buttons. Check it out!

I've searched like hell, wiki and all, but can't find a way to do this.
When I click the signal icon in the top bar, the system status screen appears, which is fine, but then if I click the signal icon on that screen it closes and then a notification icon pops up to show me the signal status in a bubble.
Is there any way to go straight from the system status screen to the comm manager? rather than the really long way at the moment?
I'd be really happy if there was a third party app which took the system status screens place with more detailed info and comm manager in one.
hope someone can help.
Logicalstep
I don't know if it will solve your problem, but I simply added "Comm manager" as shortcut in the start menu. (2 clicks to comm manager)
I found that if I mapped the CommManager to the 'press and hold' call accept (green phone button) in the 'buttons' section in settings, then its nice and easy to load and it doesn't then matter where you are in your phone you can always get to commManager quick and easy.
I used to have this button mapped to use the camera, this is so I had a hardware camera button but the delay is too much to live with for me.
Hi,
Thanks for the tips, I know you can just assign comm manager to a button, but I was hoping there would be a more technical way to use the system status screen to go to the comm manager.
I already have on of my buttons mapped to rotate.
Thanks
Logicalstep
Use Ae button plus (i am using it to turn on-off wifi with a double press on the vol up button)
or
edit the registry so you assign the commanager to your left softkey @ homescreen (you can use HD tweak or Advanced config tools).
instead of doing that to get to comm manager why dont you just
press home
slide to settings
load comm manager
its like button, slide, tap, less than 1 second and you can do it with one finger or your thumb while holding your phone in the same hand
tap start , tap comm manager. your there

Personally I feel 'Tap Start , Tap Comm Manager' is probably the best route to take but if you want to map a button to comm manager use AEB PLus
For example if you want you could use the Volume Up button to run Comms Manager as well as volume
Simply set Single Tap to run application and Double Tap for volume or whatever button & configuration you prefer
You have a choice of buttons to use and 3 option for configuration i.e. Single Tap, Double Tap & Hold Button
Well thanks for all your suggestions they are good ones, but as always me being very picky, I was kind of hoping there would be registry hack to allow me to do it from the system status, in my opinion this wouold be the more TF3d integrated solution allowing me to go to the comm manager just as pressing the volume button takes me to the volume controls.
It just a little illogical the way it shows the notification bubble instead of taking you to the comm manager.
What would be really great is a more advanced syatsm status screen showing all the connection info on it, such as wifi signal strength and status, data status
all icons with the ability to click on and go to comm manager.
I'm guessing this is probably just me, but I think that would be great.
Logicalstep
Start-Settings-System-Touch-FLO, untick the Show System Status screen checkbox.
At least that cuts out one unnecessary step..
hmm I don't really think that qualifies as solving my gripe as it just disables the system status menu and that doesn't fulfil any of my wish list.
Ok well if I can't get it to work with the touchflo system status screen is there a way to change what program is launched on the click of the task bar? That way I might stand a chance of making or finding an app that does what I want.
Logicalstep
doesnt the new htc notification thingy replace those bubble pop ups with a full screen finger friendly screen?
i dont know cos i havent installed it...
then clicking on the icon would take u to take screen to load comm manager
I downloaded WKTASK, you can find it on this site, which places an icon of all open programs on the task bar. Open Commmgr the first time and then leave it open on the task bar. Next time you need it one tap brings you there.
wktask looks cool thanks
