AEB Plus....

Does anyone know if AEB works in the TP2 I'd very much like to change the buttons, I miss my scroll wheel and I'd like to make the volume rocker scroll up and down instead
Cheers,
DJ
I'd have made ONLY: 1 press volume button down to ''scroll down'' & long press same button to ''speaker vol down''. Same for volume button up.
I"d try make something with other buttons but unsucsessfull

Its very unstable with the other buttons...volume button I haven't tried.
Tried all buttons, but most of them won't work.
Volume works great for single-double-tripple and long, but that's about it.
Did not find any change in Menu-button or changes on phone buttons. I could not find the 'Button 1' on the device.
So, it was a great program for my qtek9000, it's almost useless for this one... I hope they will be able to get all buttons!
Besides, I'm hoping for someone to hack the zoom-slide to change it into 4 buttons... (eg. in this order: left-up-down-right so we might use AE to change those buttons)
I use the latest version on my TPro2 and it works like a charm.
No problems at all.

The same way: it works perfectly...
Does someone know, how to access this key
I'm using AEBplus on my HTC Touch2 aka Mega and would like to remap the key with an arrow to the left. See also the picturee.
Does somebody know how to do this. In the program I can't find it.

cimber
no one any idea ?
From Alexander Eltsyn also no answer.

Forget AEB
Sorry to say that, but with this device, there is no need for AEB anymore.
Look for this App and be happy...;-)

Now the answer did come !!!
See here :
As for your question:
At least some of the HTC devices implements “back” button scan code to generic “Ok” button. So you could just try to re-define “Ok” in bplus settings list and see if it will work on “back” button.
There are 3 situations with buttons:
- button is already in list but could be named differently.
- button could be added via File -> Add Button in bplus settings menu.
- button is implemented on a driver level making impossible interception by application-level software like BPlus.

cimber
PS : the "back"- button is assigned on the HTC Touch2 like the "ok" - button in AEBplus

Mapping Hardware Buttons

Anyone found an app that can do this yet? Need to map a task manager...
There are several apps that can do it for you. AEButton Plus is one of them, but there are others as well.
A different approach is this.
And finally, you can search this forum for the way to enable WM standard button setting applet.
Thanks, have you tried AE Button Plus? I did search, and I can start the buttons applet, but none of the other apps seem to be able to use the hardware buttons on HD2...
I don't have HD2, so I didn't test AEB on this device. I used it previously on other WM phones, it should work unless HTC did some sort of a quirky trick with hardware buttons. They did it on HD, and AEB still managed to remap everything except the Home button there.

Hi!
I've also tried aebutton plus but with now luck
What buttons did succeed in remaping using AEB? Could you please describe your steps?
Thanks !
Hi
AEB Plus does work on HD2. I had it on HD and have now got a HD2. I have mapped the volume buttons fine. I have not yet mapped any other buttons but will try.
I also loaded "Touch X LEO Power 12 icons actionscreen v 1.1" on the end button which works very well.
Regards, David
The Back button (OK button in AE) works anywhere. The Start button also works, everywhere but in Sense, where it does its default action. Home never seems to be changed. As others have said, you can also do volume etc.
No special steps, but once mapped make sure you try them outside Sense.

The back key (OK key) Close active application
and the windows key does also work
AE button plus V.2.6.6.1
I want to remap the hardware buttons on my HD2. I have looked in the other thread for the links of these buttons, that should work when you paste them to the Windows folder.
However, no luck so far.
Does anyone have a list? I know the Long_Send.lnk, but are there any others?
Thanks a million,
Bruce
I tried all methods and couldn't get it to work
I even tried SPB Pocket Plus, and it seemed like it was working for once or twice but then nada - I can't get the back button to map.
Anyone managed to get it working on HD2 in any method?
Read through this thread, AE Button Plus works.
Pocketshield is supporting keys remapping in beta: http://jdbp.mobi/phorum/read.php?3,9299
This great for me because each time I need less programs running on background and less apps installed
I want to map the windows or OK/back key using the "Windows/*.lnk" strategy and not add extra software as I got the send key to work nicely that way. What are the shortcuts for windows key and OK/back key?
Bump, ding, nudge

I don't think that is possible. On the HD2 the only buttons that can be hooked by .lnk shortcuts are the SEND and long END (this one in some ROMs only I'm afraid)

[Q] Change Hardware Buttons Mapping

Hi,
I've searched everywhere I could hoping to find an answer to this question which I believe is very basic.
Is it possible to remap the hardware buttons on my Vogue running Android (Myn Donut). I would particularly like the "back" button to be the big button in D-pad (like the iphone).
Thanks a lot folks!
Ray
download Atools that has an option to change the button mapping to whatever you please
Thanks, I downloaded atools and the concept looks great
But i was hoping I wouldn't have to reflash everthing and reinstall everything just to swap 2 buttons... am I wrong? Is there no program that can customize a config file somewhere?
Thanks in advance!

nope, when you flash a new kernel you don't have to reinstall your system, but their isnt a program that can customize it
Use atools and apply update created by the keychanger.
aight, I'll definitely try that then!
any reason why the DPAD middle button (and DPAD up/down for that matter) are not available for customization in Atools?
Thanks!
i can add dpad in next release for which device?
I have a HTC Touch CDMA (vogue), do you need any other info?
I dont know why, but customization seems possible for every button on the Touch right now except for:
-DPAD-middle (big button)
-dpad-up
-dpad-down
-volume up
-volume down
if it's not too complex, maybe add support for "long press" for all buttons too?
Thanks a lot man, much appreciated!
Ray
Long press isn't supported if it is not present in kernel. I'm sorry i will add other button soon.
awesome!
Looking forward to it!

[Q] Now I have android on nand, how to map win key to app menu?

Hi everyone, I've searched but I can't seem to find anything.
What would be the file to edit and code to map hard key with windows logo to the application drawer to open in home screen only? Is this something possible? I'm using AWD launcher
Is there another way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance
why would you like that ? it's useless
Yup pretty useless
So how would you bring up the menu?
Well, i do see what you mean with useless... but would be nice to have short press for programs and long press for normal menu you get when pressing it...
Not that important anyways!
Long press is already used to bring up keyboard and to hide it.

hardkey mapping in WP7

hey everyone
first I'd like to congratulate for new forum
and secondly I have a big bad question form devs
it won't be better if you guys change home button which currently opens search with the menu button that takes us to the home??
so the home button shows home and menu button search
I thought we all have got used to do it that way in both android and winmo(which is now dead).
in my opinion it would be much easier
what about you dear friend?
Posted same Q not too long before you, i need the same thing. =[ someone help =/
I want Call button to go to dialer... camera, i can open with touch screen, then we should get menu button to click pics..
