Disable Jog Dial

Is there a was to stop the middle D Pad/Jog Dial from working as it spins? I would rather use it as a regular D pad.

Anyone have any idea's?

still looking for an answer

155 views so far... guess there is no way to do this?

Same problem for me, i'd like to disable it, because when using the Cruise on motorbike, volume in Tomtom turn down to 10 % with the vibrations transmitted to the jog ....

Yeah I hope someone has an answer

Still hoping there is an answer out there?

here is a solution
Try this registry tweak found by me yesterday.
Greate the key in HKCU\ControlPanel\keybd\ named JogWheelSensitivity type DWORD
Value 0 is max sensitivity. More value - min sensitivity.

How to disable "footprint" on right hardware-button?

Hi,
I would like to disable the footprint-application from the right hardware-button, but it dosn't work. In registry under HKLM/Software/Microsoft/shell/keys I've made two new entries (40C1 and 40C2), so I can choose now the two hardware-buttons in preferences. But when I lay another program to the right hardware-button, this programm starts together with footprint...
The left hardware-button is no problem, it works fine with every programm I want
Thanks

(sorry for my bad english, I hope you can understand my problem...)

Looks like it is somehow hardcoded into the TouchFLO interface. I managed to "unmap" the left key (simply by uninstalling TomTom), but I had no success with the Footprints key so far.

I think that some program or registry setting is responsible for these keys mapping.
I've managed with ae button plus to assing a different application to these keys, but the default apps run again with the new apps. And I think that because you uninstalled tomtom, just they didn't find the app and for this is not running with the new assinged app.
I don't think that is touchflo related.

I am not sure mate, tried to look almost everywhere in the registry with no success. But I'll keep trying, the Navi and Footprints buttons sux. I'd rather have Diamond's/HD's Back and Home keys, if nothing better.

Got the same result too, when tried to map another app with AEBP.

Sure, I know it just doesn't find the app, but at least it got me rid of TomTom (I am an iGO 8 user). I admit it's quite lousy workaround.

I think I found something.
Seems that the function of these buttons loading as a service.
I've managed to unbind the left button by stop the NaviService(NPS0 and I think that
the service App Service(APP1 is responsible for the right button, but I cannot stop this service.Needed further research though.
EDIT:
I've managed to disable it from registry(HKLM\Services\App). I changed Context and Index values to 0 and seems that the button is unbind now!
Needed to set these services to not automatic start also. This can be done with FdcSoft Task Manager 3.1

Ok, after some time playing around with my registry, I found a workaround how you can start a different program with the footprint button:
(BTW I have a German version so I'm not sure how the features are called in English, so if anyone can describe what I write next clearer, please feel free. Thx)
First you have to go to system preferences. In the system tab you'll find an option where you can make some adjustments about A-GPS and Place Settings. In the left tab you can activate and deactive A-GPS and tell your device which provider to use to access it. In the right tab you can tell the device not to notify you if some HTC software wants to start this feature which monitors the place where you are. Check this box.
This will keep the Google notifier to pop up every time you press the footprint button.
The go to the registry:
\HKLM\Software\HTC\FootCam
and simply change the path in there to any program you want to use with the button. e.g. \Program Files\ThumApps\ThumbCal\Thumbcal.exe

Well, works well, but do you have any idea if disabling these services does not cause any other issues?

After a hard reset I did the following
- installed the 40C1 and 40C2 reg key
- set the the NaviService(NPS0) to manual
Both buttons can now be used by Windows without any issue so far. No more changes were needed for me. Hope that helps. (I have a HTC Guide, that is the O2 branded version)

I mentioned that few posts above.
The problem is that when the NaviService doesn't run, NaviPanel doesn't start automatic when in carkit mode, even if this option is checked in carkit settings screen.

You can use AE Button Plus, you can assign 4 different actions to each button.

Before read THIS
Then use "Start" - "Settings" - "Hardware-Buttons" to change assignment.

Yes It Works,
Followed the steps and it works. I assigned foot prints to put phone in standby ( screen off / on ) The Off works quick, the On has a delay but I will get used to it.
Set the NAVI to Manual Start is the trick

Long press to get FN+Key

Hi all, I just got my Snap after having the Dash for 3 years. The Snap is great but I have one problem...
On the Dash, when typing, long press will input the Alt+key combination, e.g. when long press on the "W" key it will input "1". The Snap can't do it and I need to press the FN key
Any way to change this?
Thanks,
Eran

That would be a great improvement! I had this same feature on my Diamond. I like the Snap keyboard, but you just have to push the FN key too much during some regular typing!

I'd like this too.

seems like know one know how to solve... this is really annoying on this great phone!

This depends on keyboard driver, what's always a dll library written by a manufacturer specifically for each device.
Similar problem has Touch Pro 2.
E.g. unlike Rose, where press+hold function can be simply remapped to another character/function.

OK I think I've provisionally got this sorted - you have to edit the keymap file using a text editor (either on the device using e.g. Total Commander or (probably more easy) copy the file to your PC using Activesync, edit it then copy it back to your device). On my snap the file is \Windows\eT9.Maple.wwe.kmap.txt - might be different depending on your ROM and language settings.
Before we go any further, make a backup of the file because you can get into all sorts of problems if you mess it up. It will be recoverable with a hard reset if necessary, but you probably want to avoid that...
The process is pretty self explanatory when you look at the kmap.txt file, but as an example:
Look at the entry for the R key:
{R R R 3 3 0x03}
As stated in the beginning of the kmap.txt file (on my device anyway), the third character in the above entry is "VK2 -> key to interpret when for press and hold". So simply change this to:
{R R 3 3 3 0x03}
Reboot your device and try it in messaging - when you hold the R key you will get a 3. Now you need to do this for every key! I haven't done it for the whole keymap yet - this might be the sort of thing you want to do personally, it's not THAT big a job I guess.
Cheers.

P.S. I also used this to remap the tab key, which I don't find that useful.

THANK!!!
this works beautifully!!! now the keyboard is as it should be the first place
Attached is the file for the WWE with long press supported for all keys

That's brilliant!
I've modified your file to get rid of 2 small bugs (* and 0 longpress not working) and absolutely love the keyboard now!

Could you post your modifications? Also, has anyone tried this on the Sprint Snap?

Has anyone remade the above file for the US keyboard? In other words, here is the layout for my keyboard:
Q1 W2 E3 R% T+ Y( U) I- O_ P"
A* S4 D5 F6 G~ H/ J? K$ L= ,@ (DEL)
(CAPS) Z7 X8 C9 V' B& N! M; .: (ENT)
(ALT) TAB0 SYM# (SPACE)

<strike>Sorry, dumb question but it's been a long time since I tweaked around in \Windows
It says I don't have permission. Neither locally, nor through the PC.
What to do?</strike>
Nevermind, used Total Commander to do it!

Strange thing though - a long press on "Q" locks the keypad. Yet there is no code for "locking" in kmap.txt.
That would be sweet to have on inner circle! A one-click lock. Hmmmmmm.

Hi,
I upload the corect one, with Q(*), TAB (#) and SYM (0) modificated.

Taking control of the damn file
Hi folks. Can anyone help me out on how to get control of the .txt file?
greg530 has clearly done it using Total Commander but I can't get it it work at all, either on the PC or the device itself. Refuses to be edited or deleted or have it's permissions changed.

did u try resco explorer?

You can assign a single press lock to the Windows Live Messenger button if you like - use VJDeviceLock and the instructions here.

Thanks, but I tried that with no luck. The file is in the ROM so I can't see how I can change it without reflashing.

Is this just the Snap? My T-Mobile Dash 3G has these baked in already.

Is there a key code to launch PIE?
I don't need the Messenger shortcut and I'd like to replace it:
{0xE4 0x96 0x8D 0x8D 0x00 0xff} // VK_IME_APP_CAMERA 0x8D, 0x96 = IM

ManilaTodayPage (MTP) which Version is working??

does anybody know, which version of mtp is working on touch pro2?? i´ve tested 0.4.1 but the tab is empty.
so which version is working??

Tried all the version, non works on my TP2, ends up i am using SecondToday.

+1
Also tried a lott of them (maybe not all) also end up with Second Today.
TIP: change the softkey to Secondtoday
HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/
HomeLSKPath, which is the left softkey.
And
HomeRSKPath, which is the right softkey.
If you change these with the location of the programs you want to link to, and simultaneous change the names:
HomeLSKText = Left softkey text
And
HomeRSKText = Right softkey text.
TIP2: under settings go to buttons and assign it to the long press green button. To switch back to Touchflo simply hit the red phone button.

i tried 0.4.0 and it works. maybe you should try it??!!

0.4.0.0 works great indeed. Running smooth with PocketBreeze
It takes some time to set it up, i had to soft-reset a couple off time...
My advise, be patient! Manilla doesn't hang it just takes a while to load.

4.0.0 works on TP2 - but not in WVGA and some TodayPlugIns will not be shown.
