I accidently miss selected what I wanted the center Mad catz button to do. How do I switch it back to function as the ouya center U button?
There is a way to change the functionality of the power/home button? How did you do that?
Have you been using the controller in PC mode and just changed the button mapping of a specific game? In this case just drop it's user data to reset that game. Go to Settings > Apps > Your game > Clear data.
Thanks,
That worked!

The Wizard has the option, when it is in...ummm...standby(?) mode (i.e., when you push the power button), to only return to normal mode when you press the power button. In other words, the other hardware buttons, let alone the touchscreen, do nothing.
What I'm interested in is a way of doing something similar, but when I'm using it as an MP3 player. The various Wizard cases I've tried are all too snug, so putting the Wizard back in the case after starting up the MP3 player bumps buttons or the screen and causes problems (e.g., stops the music).
Are there any tricks to restricting input for cases like this? Ideally, from my standpoint, the device would accept user input when either the middle button of the D-pad is pushed, or if a call comes in (so the call can be accepted).
Thanks!
You can try using the WM5 Today's lock device plugin. There are various other software that utilize (similate) this lock feature. Do a search.

Hanmin, I do exactly as you suggested but I wonder if is there a more efficient way to lock the device especially with media player on top. I use the Treo case which actually has a hole for the headphone jack in the proper location for the k-jam, however, one has to thread the headphone through the case, start one's music, bring up the today screen, and then lock the device. If one could have the option of placing lock the device on the start menu as opposed to having it only on the today's screen that to me may be a big help, and then as you come out of unlocking the device, you would be right there at the media player.
What I'm afraid of is one time while I'm fidgeting to get the device into the case and coordinate the starting/locking of music, I'll drop the device on the NYC subway platform and watch it dash on to the tracks as a subway is on coming :roll:
Try deltaLock I use it together with WMP10 and wired/bt headsets.
Would it help if you could map the device lock to a button?
Armstrom has made a great program for that:

You don't have to go back to the today screen at all, just press the button you mapped it to.
you can also assign a button to sreen on/off in Windows Mediaplayer itself! Then you can use the d-pad buttons (that's what you wanted not?) to adjust volume and select next and previous, however you screen is blacked out, so the touchscreen will not work and power consumption drops. Ideal for use as MP3 player.
WM Player > Menu > Options > Buttons > Screen on/off, > assign e.g. the middle button.

There is a bug in WMP10 on WM5 that prevents this from being assigned to buttons other than dpad though correct? Anyone have a fix for this yet? I like having up/down for volume, right/left for track, and middle button for play/pause.

Yeah but... that means the button will always be a lock. What I used to do on previous pocketpc was have a button that launched WMP. Once WMP is running, that button now becomes the screen lock.
Itesla, you can still have your up down left right and enter dpad control, as you can assign two functions to each button. A press and a press and hold (except the middle button). When it asks you to press a button, just hold up or down (left and right hold are assigned to rewind and fast forward). I have down hold set to fullscreen and up hold set to the lock.
Alternitavely, you could use the press up down for a button lock, and just use the volume slider
Hope this helps
PS I'm posting this on my wizard from the comfort of my bed :lol: Ahh the glories of Wifi... I'm just a bit overhappy because I've finally got it working.

Thanks 1-2tje, your suggestion was dead on. Eb
Hi,
Im trying to play a game on my phone, which requires me to push "Yes" or "No" to "Do you want sound?".
You have to actually push the hardware left or right nav key button to proceed, which the Topaz/Td2 does not have.
So i thought simple, go into the Buttons configuration settings, and set "Call (hold)" as left soft key, and "Hangup (Long hold)" as right soft key... but this doesnt work.
Anyone have an idea of how i can mimic the nav buttons?
Cheers,
Blake
There is a program called "TopazKbdControl_GSM" that allows mapping of all your hardware keys, even Volume keys, Home, and back. It is actually pretty slick, allowing you to map Volume keys as Up and Down with a single press... and VolUp-VolDown on a hold.
Same with the bottom buttons.

Thanks!
That program is exactly what i wanted.
Unfortunately it doesn't let me get pass the screen in the game :S
Its Line Rider 1.0.5 if everyone knows how to get it working.
Hi everyone! Ok first, i'm new and i tried my best searching the forums but can't find what i'm looking for. I'm used to a Palm Treo Pro which has a wifi button and skip track buttons for music on the exterior of the device. I want my Touch Pro 2 to do the same. Isn't there an app that can turn the front buttons into a pause and skip track buttons? Everyday i listen to music it's required i turn the screen on and touch the screen to change tracks. Also, when you press and hold the power button that turns the phone off completely..how can i turn off the phone signal without digging into the start menu and settings. Why not have a button on the home screen that will let you switch on and off the phone and wifi. Thank you for your patience and answers
Search for AE Button Plus.
Got it

Thank you for your reply. I will try that program. Also, I found out there is an option to customize the front buttons. I simply went to Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Buttons and now I can change (some) of the buttons around the device.
In my phone by pressing that key camera application is not getting opened , Cannot even capture a photo using that.
Is there any setting I have to change ?

Well, i personally i have a shortcut to camera app on my screen and i'm using touch to capture.
I've never used that key ... but...
1. From what i know, on X10, pressing that key won't open the app.
2. To take a picture, press the button half down, wait for focus and then press all the way down.
thanks for your response
When pressing like that focus cursor (centre of display) turns green then goes off , but not capturing
to open the camera app with the key, press it all the way in, and hold it for around 3 seconds
to take a picture push it in halfway for the green focus to come up, then all the way in to take picture, simple
I did it but not working.
Dunno if this is a but obvious but are you pressing it hard enough?
I only ask because I have to press mine very very hard to actually capture.

Agree, the button is just a bit to hard for my taste. But i can live with it

You probably are using a task-killer that is killing some process related to the button. Pressing the button opens up the Camera app. If it doesn't, you've screwed up a setting somewhere or killed a task unnecessarily.
Have you went into the test menu? (While in the lock screen, press menu > back > back > menu > back > menu > menu > back).
Then go to service tests, and find "Keyboard and switch" or something, see if it registers the button press. It should register half press and a whole press.

Wow, I didn't know that! Thanks for sharing.
Sorry, I'm too lazy to read the manual.
Finally I found it , Thanks for all your valuable advise
Hey everyone!
Unfortunately through the dexterity and interaction settings, I mapped a tap on my screen to the back button. Now I can't do anything except go into the settings menu through Google Now. I'm stuck on the home screen and require a fix soon.
