On AT&T, you pull up the dialer ad longpress the *1* key to get into voicemail......... and until recently it worked fine. Now, somehow, it has remapped my longpress *1* key into a phone number who called me several days ago. Nothing in the docs on how to remap it back except to say that the *1* key is dedicated to voicemail. In the mean time, I have set up a speed dial key with my phone number to get to my voicemail as a workaround. This bugs me though. Any thoughts?

Go to your dialer and press the menu button to change your speed dial settings.

Default speed dial number 1 is voicemail.

What i'd like to do is assign more than 1 binding to the outlook button.
Exactly the same as the "voice dial" one has as standard (press for voice dial, hold for voice memo)
What i want is (on the mail/outlook/text button) press to open outlook, hold to start new text message.
Is there a reg key to change to allow this dual use?
If not (and i'd rather not add more software to map buttons) what software will allow this? Multipress isn't really an option, as pressing the button again now will cycle through the different text settings (sms, mms, e-mail etc) and put you in whatever folder you were in last (inbox, outbox etc)
EDIT:
While i would still like to be able to do this, thanx to vijay555 who's phone tools 2 lets me start a blank sms from a today screen .lnk file
The only way to do it is using Vito Button mapper.
Button mapper supports macros as well.

Have you read the thread about putting VJSMS on the softkeys, to start an sms straight from that key..
I'll have another related release that you'll hopefully like, coming soon.

I'll search some more later and keep an eye on your site!
Vito Button Mapper works here, but after a soft reset I get a popup message saying a certificate is missing.
Also, after installation my backlight was turned off. Went to settings and restored it and all works fine now (also after a reset... only problem is the popup)
Vito Button Mapper screwed up my softkeys.
Only in the 'Today Screen' however thats were a couple of my most used buttons were.
Now they don't work and sometimes change?
I would urge you NOT TO USE if you want to use soft keys in Today screen.

Soft keys can be configurated in the app, that is why you lost them for now...
Reconfig them:
Start -> Settings -> Buttons
Configuration drop down -> Today
Top 2 entries: Left softkey & Right softkey
Well yours must be different to mine.
When I open buttons the only choices I have are for the 5 hardware buttons.
No other choices are available????????

I have this weird problem on my HTC Mogul 6800 (Sprint). Everytime I slide out my keyboard, the dialer starts up. Any ideas?
Sequence to reproduce the issue:
1. Slide out the keyboard.
2. press any key - the dialer pops up
BTW, I am using Paul's dialer found here:

thanks

I think there is a registry edit to change a value to 2 instead of 1 and it should stop the dialer from coming up. Keep searching as I just saw it a couple of days ago.

I tried that fix. doesnt work for me.
Why would you open the keyboard and press a key from the Today screen? Unless you wanted to dial?

I have installed google search today plugin. thats why. With the plugin it becomes sporadic. Since my steps would be:
- open the keyboard
- take the control to the search box
- press keys, enter
- close the key board (the screen would rotate)
- the search box would initiate the badboob's script which will launch opera mini wiith jbed and update the search URL
In all this mix, sometimes the dialer pops up.
The dial button won't work on my phone suddently for some reason. If someone calls... it will allow me to hit it and it'll answer but if I just pick up my phone and hit the dial button (to dial someone) nothing will happen. It'll just show my today screen as if it's disabled for something. I can go the long way around and hit "phone" in my menu or hit the dial button when I happen to be in a program but it refuses to work just by pressing it?
Any ideas?
I have thew same problem. I have to go through icontacts to call anyone. Kind of a pain. hope some one knows of a reg edit. Thanks, Scott
I used to have the Droid before I got the Droid X, and several apps were able to modify the behavior when I held the search button for a few seconds. Both Dialer One and Handcent SMS both had that capability, so that when I held down Search, I had a choice to start the voice dial, Dialer One, or a new SMS message. And I could set a default action (Dialer One in my case). However, those options don't come up when using the X. Any idea on how this can be fixed?
And on a similar note, is there a way to launch a custom app when double-clicking the home button instead of only the preset ones?
Hi all, I'm trying to add the following actions as the 3 keyboard shortcut keys:
Button 1: Voice Input (voice-to-text)
Button 2: Home key
Button 3: Back key
So far, I've only had success with Home key by choosing my Launcher app as the shortcut.
Anyone have any advice on how to make these actions work as shortcut keys?
There is a guide in the development section, I forgot the name, but its an older guide so just look carefully for it. Also, try searching for it.

why would you need this? you can just reach up with your right thumb and hit the buttons lol.
As far as voice search (or voice dialer), there's actually an app for that so you should be able to just apply that as the app to launch on key press.

I'm lazy ok, lol.
Voice search is different from voice input I think.
Voice input is the one that's only for text-to-speech. The virtual keyboard has a button for it, but not the hardware keyboard.
EDIT: Cool, I found the guide to add Home and Back buttons.
I just needed to change vision-keypad.kl
Now to find out how to add Voice Input to the button on the left!

Well if you're really lazy, you'd want to keep the home, back and search buttons where they are, and use the 3 quick launch keys for 3 apps that can't be created with the capacitive home back and search keys.
