I mapped 2 different apps to my long press send and endkey (taskfacade & slide2unlock)
For me the time after the apps get started is a bit to long. Is there a way to reduce the time?

Is there possible to assign volume control buttons as up/down scrolling?
There can be options
- better is if on home screen they works as volume control, for applications as scrolling
- always scrolling
- scrolling only in certain applications
?
Also, is there possible device tilt for scrolling?
maybe you check "AE Button Plus". a lot of discusiion around here
Is is possible?
Yes it is possible - I use it.
I have set it up do do exactly as you as you ask where a "short press" of the up/down volume buttons will scroll up and down and a "long press" will change the volume as normal.
You can download it here http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
Thank you!
AE Button Plus is good application and it works, but it's not free.
Now I try HButton 2.3

Question guys,
How do I map the call button to long press (like the smallest long press ever) to get the Start menu?
Thanks

The unregistered function is almost fully functioning.
I recommend it.
I bought the app as I use it all the time and thought it fair to the developer even though I don't actually use the additional functions in the reg version.

You should be able to map long press send, long press end and long press power. It should work like the Fuze. Check out this articles but I bet it's identical:

Here's one on making it the start menu: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1249
The mapped long press buttons take 3 seconds or so...not sure it's great for that unless you try DredSensor but then you'd lose a physical button (short press) to something else...
Is the long press timeout option in the settings the time one has to "long press" in order to trigger what he sets? Coz you can set it from 200ms to 900ms. I am guessing this is the time required to trigger a long-press response/activation.
I would suggest you send an email to the AEB developer. I did once and he responded in the same day.
He could probably guide you much (v. much) better than I on all the options in AEB+ (including "long-key press mode")
thanks Dave.
For a temporary fix,(or perhaps a preferred alternative?) I have set up volume to scroll up and long press (which is barely a second) to start menu (shows quick menu not original start menu) and volume down to scroll down and long press of it to ok/action. This way I can pull down the start menu with a little press, scroll up/down and then select an item or enter the submenu using the down button.
Hey guys,
I got a TMOUS HD2 a couple of days ago and was wondering if there was a cab or some sort of reg tweak that can assign the end key to exit out of programs instead of pressing the back key and ending it in task manager, or having to exit using the soft keys.
I personally prefer to have a hard button to exit out of the programs because I am coming from the iPhone.
the end key is used to turn off your screen and put your phone to sleep/stand-by or end a call, so i find it impractical to use it to exit an app or for anything else... how else would you put your phone on standby without it? unless u let the display time out but then you'll wonder why your battery doesn't last as long as it should. the HD2 is not an iPhone
Are you aware that you can click the cross in the top right of the screen? Clicking it minimizes the app and a long press closes it. You can download something like Touch X Task Manager that can reassign these the other way around so a short tap on the cross closes the app. This is just as quick as clicking a hard button and as stated assigning it to end key either single or long press prevents other important features namely switching to standby for a short press and turning the phone off for a long press.
Sorry if already asked before, but search did not bring the results I needed.
What I wanna do is rather simple:
Pressing long one of the hardware button will result in defined actions. e.g. like the long press on home will bring up the task manager.
The same I want to happen on the other buttons: e.g. long press the search will en/disable wifi (like the app 'in app wifi toggler'), long press of back will toggle e.g. bluetooth, long press of track pad will enable voice search, etc.
Is there such an app?
Thanks

App? No. You need root. Also, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683902
Hunting around for solution but surprisingly all seems to be happy with button layouts. Currently my buttons are:
1) Long press SEARCH - dialer One
2) Long press HOME - visual task swither
3) Long press MENU - brings keyboard (default)
4) Long press BACK - ???
Can we assign something on long press BACK? Sleep????
Is there solution for long press MENU to assign something other than coming out with keyboard? I'm thinking about Peoples/contacts.
As for trackball, currently I'm using to wake up with a press. I don't know why but I'm really struggling almost everytime to reach and press power button on top. One more I would much prefer and very happy is to ANSWER calls with a press of trackball while at lockscreen. Perfect!
Many thanks if can point to some directions.
I'm pretty sure similar to the Home Long Press, Back and Menu Long Press are impossible to change system-wide without hacking Android itself (like Home Long Press had to be).
How to clear long press search and assign another app?

Download an app that can use Search Long Press and the next time you press it, Android will ask which app you want to use.

Or go to settings->applications->"the application" and click on "clear defaults"
Which file do I have to edit in order to decrease the long press home button time value?
Thanks
