I own an O2 Mini & Eten M500.
Is there any possibility of remapping the power on/off button to another hardware key since my actual button is acting funny with me.(it works most of the time, but certain times even if I sit on it it wont power on the device. Power off is not a problem since I programmed it to sleep after xx secs.)
Any developer gurus out there who can develop a prog. for me :roll:
Thanks in advance for the help.
I dropped my HTC Hermes device and now the power button is stuck in.
Is there anyway to remap the power on/off function to another hardware button? Specifically the comms button.
well, i would like to delete my message, but dont know how?
i can edit it but i cant delete it, right?
You can use "AE Button Plus" to map all the other keys to other various functions, "power off the device" is among them...
you can even specify actions for single press, double press, triple press or long press for each button.. good luck
ae button or pqzII is okay

Thats quite strange and I've never heard that one before. I'm guessing there could be some oxidation on the contacts of the power button.
As a test to be 100% sure its the button which is the problem, have you tried calling the device to wake it up when the power button refuses to work? Reason being, is that I suspect its actually the device freezing and not waking up rather than just the power button malfunctioning. If the power button refuses to work and you can successfully wake up the device by other means (eg, a phone call) then you can explore other alternatives
how do i map leftsoftkey as the redkey(Red Phone Button) and the redkey as leftsoftkey?
current hardware keymap:
leftsoftkey controller rightsoftkey
greenkey controller redkey
what i want:
redkey controller rightsoftkey
greenkey controller leftsoftkey
reason for tiz is i cant seem to get morphgear to use the redkey or the greenkey even after mapping in the game. by mapping leftsoftkey to the redkey, i can then play the game with "A" "B" buttons using my right hand. so "A" will be mapped to rightsoftkey and "B" mapped to "leftsoftkey"(physically redkey).
i hv tried ae button plus.. tried unbinding redkey still no use. tried binding single press to virtual key too but to no avail.
It could help

This one is from the Hermes forum, at least gives you a couple of ideas on how to...
Cheers!
Rigging screen off (like PWMP)
I would like help on this too. Is there any way to rig the device so the power button only ever turns on/off the screen (like windows media player does) or at least is there a program or cab someone can design to do this????
Thanks in advance.
I've figured out how to do the above, if anyone wants to know pm me.
hello,
i have a problem with my xda neo:
holdung hardware buttons doesn't work anymore.
for example the volume keys: some days ago i could hold down the button on the side and the volume gets reduced until the phone is silent. or in menus or contacs i could hold down the cursor button and the selection was going down. now it goes down only one entry and doesn't scroll down anymore. may i have disabled it? i have sktools but i did not find the setting for it.
does someone know, what i have to do?
ps: i don't want to hardreset
edit: ok, looking around in tools and registry didn't help. but the built in settings dialog was the solution. sometimes the easiest way is the solution
heh lol, good you fixed it
With a complete lack of knowledge how to fix it I was already ready to give you advice to make a backup of your phone, do a hard-reset and check if the button was at least still working. Then you could have put the backup back again and you are up and running. Which would at least have ruled out hardware problems
In the button mapping settings for my touch/vogue/xv6900/whateveryouwanttocallit, I have an entry for "Button 5". I tried mapping it to something and tried pushing every button on the phone and the button on my bluetooth headset for short and long times, and nothing seemed to activate that mapping. Can anyone help me with what that button 5 is connected to? Is its presence in the settings just a mistake?
The only other buttons available to map are button 1 for short and long presses, and that is quite clearly the camera button on the bottom right.
Did you flash a hacked rom. This button does not exist on the vogue, so it might be a button entry from another phone. This button does not exist
No hacked rom, this thing is stock from verizon. The only "interesting" things I installed was microsoft voice command and the htc home customizer. I do remember the available buttons seeming to change when I turned the voice speed dial (the built in thing) on and off, but doing that again doesn't produce a change, and I can't remember what the change was.
I think the VC cab added that button. You can delete it from the registry, as it doesnt exist in hardware
my vx6900 had it on there as well, no flashes or anything. I think it's a Verizon glitch.
Anyone else get these syptoms?:
the volume control on the side, when I press the up or down once, it goes to the volume slider screen. One would expect that pressing the volume up, to move it up and then down, to move the volume down right?
Well on mine; if you press the volume button once, it goes to the volume screen ok, but if you press it again, it takes you back to the previous screen without altering the volume. The same happens for both up and down buttons.

As of today I have the exact same issue ! I installed sdkcerts.cab and FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.cab but uninstalled and the issue is still there
have you had any luck in finding out what's causing it, not overly enthusiatic about doing a hard reset which will probably be mentioned ?
I have the same issue, after installing some apps on my new Blackstone the Volume-settings feature was gone...
Any Ideas?
regards+thx
ps: please don't tell me to hard reset ;-)
I also have sdkcerts.cab and FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.cab installed (and many other applications), but my volume buttons work as expected. Maybe it has something to do with device lock?
Regards!

MHoefler, thank you, nice hint!
After uninstalling S2U2 the volume buttons are working!
I am using S2U2 1.35, will looking for a new build...

yes, just re-installed it.. same issue.. and then with setting "Volume Control = ON" it is working.
thank you
well spotted MHoefler !! all sorted now after enabling the volume in S2U, happy again
Yes, work with volume control "on" setting but, the volume control at call is locked!!
Any solution for up or down the volume at calls (with S2U2 installed)?
Regards.
You may try a hard reset.

Yes Black, I know that hardreset works but I wanna use S2U2.
It is clearly a bug in s2u2 and until it gets fixed there is not satisfactory solution unfortunately.
That seems. Just wait for new release.

I found the solution at the diamond-forum. You have to set "Don´t use the keyboard hook" at the S2U2-Settings to "ON" and the S2U2-Volume-Control to "OFF" -then all works perfect!!!
Thanks nick007, I'll try it.
EDIT: Yes, it works! And the hardware buttons does not pick up/ignore the calls.
thank you, but for me that doesn't work correctly: With these settings i can control the system and ring volume during a call properly, but i can't change the actual 'in-call-volume' (which means the volume how loud i can hear the other party talk)... can anyone check this?
regards jan
Yes hausen, I can change "in-call-volume".
Before you uninstall S2U2...
I had this issue as well, and suspected it had something to do with having the volume buttons captured in Mortplayer and Coreplayer. Glad to see they weren't the issue so i can keep controlling them the way i like
But be careful when getting rid of S2U2!
I had S2U2 installed as well and uninstalled it without setting the volume control, and the volume buttons remained broken! I had to install S2U2 again, activate its volume control and THEN uninstall it to get volume control back! So if you want to uninstall, be sure to fix the volume controls beforehand.
Well, it seems like i really messed it up.... My volume buttons are still broken
I get the same symptoms as described earlier (volume buttons call up the volume screen, pressing a second time does not change volume but closes the volume screen instead), but in addition i noticed pressing the volume buttons while on the volume screen actually generates up arrow/down arrow keys! You can see this on many of the manilla screens where suddenly items become selected, but in other programs as well. The volume key press that calls up the volume screen doesn't seem to generate an arrow key, or it doesn't get sent to the current program.
So a couple of things i did that could have broken it:
I remapped the volume keys in Mortplayer.
I remapped the volume keys in Coreplayer.
I had S2U2 installed.
I tried to "fix" things with AEBplus.
The symptoms are always there, even after a soft reset without having run either Mortplayer or Coreplayer. I think the system's response to the volume key has changed, and the volume keys still send volume commands because explicitly remapping the keys to volume keys with AEBplus doesn't change anything. I even tried remapping another key to generate volume commands, but that just seems to keep calling up the volume screen, even if it's already active!
So i'll be struggling with this for a while it seems.... but if anyone has any suggestions or insights.....?
I have the same problem ... DOWN volume key is not working.
The annoying thing is that if I try to soft-reset the device it works but I get into bootloader. I have to press the UP volume key and keep it pressed until HTC logo appears, or else I still get into bootloader. So, I don't know what to say, but for me at leat, it might be a hardware problem.
Another thing is that when I go to hard-reset screen, none of the buttons work. I mean is I try to press volume UP or DOWN, nothing happens. Today I succeded in hard-reseting the device but the problem still persists.
I hate this thing and I hope that somehow this problem can be solved. Good luck to everyone.
PS: I will try to get official rom, radio, and SPL on my diamond, and maybe that will clear the problem because it is annoying at least.
Hope you guys have better luck then me.
