Shortcut to recent-app-dialog - Wildfire General

Hi together,
after i deinstalled the googlesearch app, i have a free hardware-button to be filled with some function. As im using often the recent-app-dialog popup (Homescreen button long pressed) i would wish to lay that function on my search-button.
Cm7 makes it possible to set the button with some shortcut or some app.
But how can i make a shortcut directly to the recent-app-dialog, i havent found a solution to this.
Ive searched the lauchner pro activitys, but haven't found the one to get into the dialog.
Another possibility that i have though about, is to create a launcher pro custom shortcut to the dialog, anybody has a idea how that works??? Or of course any solution that would help me with my problem.
I don't want to install any extra app to do this. ( i know there are some apps for that, but it must be possible without)
Thx in advance for any help!

[REQ] TFL3D Program Launcher Bug

Hi all,
On my Diamond, I've recently added a few new programs. For some reason, it looks like Google Maps added itself to my Program Launcher tab, but because all the buttons were occupied at the time, it created another button, so now I have 19 buttons in my program launcher tab instead of 18.
Any idea how I can delete this extra button? Failing that, any idea how I can add another 2 so I least I have another complete row of buttons?
I've attached a screen shot to show what I mean.
I've scoured google and the forums for answers but couldn't find any. Many apologies if this problem is solved elsewhere and I just couldn't find it.
Many thanks in advance for any help you can give.
rich.
PS : Many thanks for an awesome forum.
Same thing happened to me before. For me if you used TF3D Config and clear the extra button then do a soft-reset. If that doesn't work try removing all apps from the menu then one by one add them back in order until you add one to the extra one. Then another button will appear add one in it and if it doesn't make and extra one again, do it again, but this time with 2 extra buttons.
Thanks for your help, but I've just managed to solve it.
In the registry,
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\
There was an extra entry '100' as well as the standard 0-17, I deleted it, did a soft reset and the extra button was gone.

Toggle (Alt+Tab) Function

Hi to all,
I have a question....
On Blackstone we have two custom buttons the home button and the back arrow button
now pressing the home button is like go to desktop in normal windows terminology.
But are we able to change the back arrow button to toggle (alt+tab) between applications.
i mean it partially does that when appication are on the screen but it doenst do anything when applications are running in background..like for e.g. say...i have explorer and wmplayer open then i press the home button..they ll be minimized in the taskmgr but back arrow is not usable in this case.
I think that ll make life very eazy for ppl who have bunch of applications running and needs to switch between them...as the taskmgr on the main screen is usually slow responding and again it saves clicks...if u know wat i mean..
thanx to everyone in advance..
Check MobileMagic, you can do that with this tool as far as I remember.

Check out WkTask - it display all running apps on the top bar the way Windows does on the taskbar on the PC! Just tap one of the icons and you switch to that app!
Hi guys ..thanks for the replies...tried both of the softwares ...MobileMagic..is not able to offer taskswitch function...and wktask is gr8 but messes up my keyboard font...its strange..any workaround ? i am using htc full qwerty keyboard.
Just download Spb PocketPlus, install it, go to the installation folder, find the file called AltTab.exe, save it.
You can uninstall P+ then and assign the "Back" button to launch AltTab.exe. But you will need AEButton+
This is how I live with my Touch HD

I guess I remembered it incorrectly, Alt+Tab action does not exist in MobileMagic, it is available in AE Button Plus.
Also there is no need for the AltTab.exe of SPB Pocket Plus, AE Button Plus is enough to accomplish this.
However, AltTab.exe might provide a better user experience, I will try it anyway.
Try TaskFacade!

That's odd... What exactly is getting messed-up? Could you upload a screenshot?
I've never had any problems using WkTask - and I have used it on pretty much every ROM I had on my HD!
BTW: I use the same keyboard you are using... no problems!
I've tried TaskFacade but it crashes on me ALOT and I can't seem to map it very well with AEButton.I wanted to map it to long 'Back' but it never works.
I don't have a HD (yet), so I don't know if this will work for sure...
But I use a little free app called HButton on my XDA Orbit (Artemis?), which allows as many functions as you like on one button (by holding the button down until the required function/app appears).
This also includes a task switcher function.
Worth a try.
Hi Guys thanx for the replies again...
by messed up i mean the text on the htc sip keyboard is like times new roman in normal (not bold tahoma) and it looks ugly...i have tried removing the application and it still is the same...can anyone upload the default font cab
thanx

[Q] Home screen shortcuts disabling

Hi all,
Ive got a really annoying issue with my phone, when installing updates for a couple of shortcuts Ive got on the home screen tab, the original version got uninstalled and now the shortcut block I had them in is permanently disabled. Nothing on there, it doesnt launch anything and when I try to add a program in there just nothing happens.
Has anybody else had this issue and/or know of a way to sort this problem out?
I've had this issue, and the only one solution was hard reset of the phone. Sorry..
Check the regisrty at HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home.
There you will find the settings for the QuickLinks.
You might change/delete settings to re-enable editting your links.
Sorry I'm an amateur -.- How do I get there?

You might use the search on top of this page and type "registry editor" in there
You could try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=327813&d=1274135081
It resets sense to its default values.
Hope this helps you
