On my 6.5.3 touch pro2, would there be a reg edit I could do that would change the camera button on the htc action screen to instead, put my device in standby?
Or is there some kind of shortcut or something I can make to do this? I'd like to just have a simple button to click on to put it in standby. Not the xpshut type of thing, just a quick standby button.
thanks.
why didn't you type "htc action screen" in search function, instead of putting it in new thread title. search results give you all the information you need.

Hello, I remember seeing a long time ago somewhere in the control panel where you can set an option that only lets the power button wake up the device. If you press any of the other buttons while the device is sleeping it wont wake up. That is the default setting, so I never have to mess with it. Over the years I have forgotten where that setting is. I am now running DCD 3.0.0. I decided to give SPB Pocket Plus a try recently. One of the features it has is that it extends your buttons and gives you press and hold options for the buttons. I have now started noticing that if my device is sleeping ANY button will wake it up. I cannot find the "lock all buttons except for power button" option in the control panel either. Is it gone from the ROM? Or did SPB PP delete this option? Where should the "lock all buttons except for power button" be?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
*EDIT*
Never mind. Found it. I feel very stupid. As soon as I posted this thread I take a look in the DCD 3.0.0 thread and someone was asking the same thing.
Settings->System->Key Lock
Can't believe I missed that. Please lock this thread.
Ha, I did the same damn thing. I think I was the first to ask that question. It was just weird because it was never an issue in the earlier roms. I felt pretty stupid too.
Is it not here?
Start menu --> Settings --> System --> Key Lock
No, its missing!
Got the same problem at a new Prophet ROM, is there any chance of getting the Keylock page back up?
Zotho,
You could buy the $8 AE Button Plus and program the buttons to your heart's content.
Is anybody know how to open s740 task manager with one button??
Just like S60.
Open task manager in S740 is a little complicated...
Long Press send button can active Voice Commander. But I never use this function. Is possible to modify this button to task manager??
Thanks
Top button on the S740 will give you access to a menu, and on #3 is Task Manager.
Or on HTC Home Up/Left/Enter.

Or put it in the first spot, then its just up and enter..
LongPressButtons
I think that I might just have the idea that could help you. I made it for Wifi switch ON/OFF because I use it a lot...
The Camera button is only mapped for Short Press. You can easily remap the Long Press Camera Button. (Camera is still working in Short Press Mode)
You can easily remap hardware buttons by creating the follow shortcuts (.lnk) in the \Windows\ directory.
Long_Camera.lnk
Your Shortcut should lead to the Taskmanager in /windows/taskmgr.exe
(or an other Taskmanager, as you wish)

Switch your phone off & on once you have created the shortcut. After that I should be working.
Hope that helps.
I will be using this. Thanks!
I recently linked the Taskmanager to the Short_Power.lnk
Now I'm very happy with that (very very fast access!!!)
Turning of the phone still works with longpress the powerbutten and I use only 2 Profiles (Normal, Vibrate) and switch between them with longpress #-Button.
To lock longpress "HANGUP"-Button.
Hi guys,
My power off button is somewhat messed up, its quite difficult to wake up the phone by pressing it. Is there any other way to turn on the screen without pressing the bloody button, it has driven my crazy lately.
Cheers,
Hi
If the button is really tired, can't you get the seller to change the phone?
Other ideas: in case it would be some software trouble: hard reset?
Use à cab like Mort button, Hbutton, AEbutton to wake up your screen from other command?
PS ShutXp is wat u need ,
set up AEbutton plus like this:
a key(like camera) double tap to to launch shutxp
same key single tap : close application
and tick "today icon" in shutxp it makes it operate smoother
so if u double tap it will come up and single ull be back from standby ... and ull have a nice close app button also
a few skins cuz the default ones are ugly here or here or search button

Thanks mate
Got sometime playing around with AEButton, pretty complicated I would say (atleast to). It seems like the soft ware could only assign jobs for hardkey buttons, is there any chance to set up so that when the screen is turned off, double tapping it makes it wake up??
I'm looking for a way to simulate pressing the "Home" hardware key at the bottom, to return to the Sense home tab, without actually pressing that key. I have seen several programs which can take over things like taps on the "X" button or even top taskbar clock, but although they can be set to close or minimize the active program, they don't seem to be able to achieve the same effect as pressing the "Home" key.
The closest I've been able to come is wktask which can assign the "Show Today" action to the "X" soft button, but it doesn't work so well with WM 6.5.X versions due to other glitches and incompatibilities, so is not ideal.
Is there any such program that can simulate the "Show Today" action, ideally by a tap on the top taskbar clock? So that the hardware key can be bypased?
quite easily:
you can create a link to Home link (found in start Menu) which will return to home sence tab.
This can be linked to anything that can select a shortcut as a function.
Example being Utask, this gives extra function to x screen-button & start menu button by long press on these screen buttons, long press mapped to Home.lnk & you got what you want.
Mortscript could also be useful in setting these sort of things up.
Thanks for the reply and advice. However on the rom that I am using (Artemis) there is no "Home" shortcut available via the start menu. In another rom (Energy) I do see this shortcut in the start menu, but am unable to find it as a file in \Windows\Start Menu\ and so I have no way of creating a link to it or pointing to it in the options for uTask.
Can anyone provide instructions for finding or creating this "Home" shortcut so that I can implement it as desired? If anyone is able to locate it as a file/link on their rom, is it possible to upload it here to this thread so that I can copy it onto my device?
Or any other ideas?
The home link is basically a link to: ManilaShortcut.exe
with parameter: home
You can set this up in utask to one of its touch buttons by setting it to launch- ManilaShortcut.exe
found in windows folder & adding parameter- home
If you do not have ManilaShortcut.exe I will upload it & shortcuts I have for it.
Thanks Mister B, the instructions as posted above worked as desired and I am now able to switch back to the Sense Home Tab at any time from any application, by tapping on the top taskbar clock. This is exactly what I wanted to accomplish.
Doing a "minimize" was already possible by default with uTask, but that would not always take you right back Home if you had other apps open and running behind the current foreground one. Now it's one-click to return home while leaving everything open and running.
Very much appreciated.
Is there a way to turn on the screen with the home button like the droid X used to do? I did not find anything in settings, but maybe a third party app that someone knows about? Tap tap uses the proximity sensor, which is close to the power button anyways.
Thanks.
Probably not. The home button on the X is a hardware button and it is a software button on the RAZR. The point of the screen lock is defeated if part of the touch screen is active. Which is what would need to be done to accomplish what you want to do.
I think is possible, the member leisures time ago made a mod remapping the search button (non-physical) to work like the power button (physical) to lock/unlock but I have little to no idea of how It was done, It was made on another forum so It's not here, you could search for other remapping threads to figure out what they've done and what you need to get what you want or pm the authors of those threads
yes u can do that if someone write a script to enable this function
but probaly cause battery drain because cpus will not deep sleep
