Hi Everyone
Sorry if this has been asked before (can't find on searches)
Orange have just replaced my broken HD with a TG01 and I am trying to get MSVC 1.6 installed. Trouble is I can't find any way to remap a hardware button
Any help will be appreciated
Regards
CD (UK)
I know the registry to map the camera key but after reset the changed reg value resets back to default . If you're interested in experimenting further in that i can tell you, other than that i don't know how to map other keys, sorry.
Hi Chromedome, I have tried MSVC but it does not activate when I press the talk button on my BT headset.
Does MSVC work on your TG01 via BT headset?

No, I have an integrated BT in the car so never use a headset, sorry
Always used MSVC for years just for general dialling rather than searching through all my contacts but can't find how map a button
I really have mixed feelings about this TG01: Nice big screen but find it 'tinny' and unstable. Have to re-boot to un-freeze it often. Poor call quality.
Has the potential to be a really good phone

Maybe a prg called AE Button plus is what you need..I don´t use it myself so can´t tell much
AE Button Plus
This is single-handedly the greatest program I have on my TG01, common .... think about it ... what is the one problem that we all have with out TG01's? ... well.. how about this.. it only has 6 buttons, and all of them are very necessary. Can you remap your power button? Well the power button is kinda important.. isn't it? How about the volume up and down button? No... those are kinda important too.. ahhh how about the camera button.. I don't need a friekin' camera anyways(being sarcastic here).. the thing is is that we can't remap anything... unless you install AE Button Plus.
but....... You can remap each key (haven't tried the power button ehheeh) including the softkeys "home" and the button that looks like "<-", here is the nifty thing, you can remap them to respond to 1, 2, or 3 clicks, or long press, so each button can now have at least 2-3 items mapped to them. You can setup an audio record and audio stop button with Resco Audio Recorder all mapped to your camera key and still have your camera key work as normal, so essential your camera key has 4 keys mapped to it. If you hold it down for a long press then it will bring up the camera, then a short press will take a photo, if you press it two times then it will start recording in Resco Audio Recorder, and if you hit it three times then it will stop. This is how I setup mine. I also mapped the "<-" softkey button so that a double click will bring up the SPB Mobile Shell Task Manager. I mean, it is the greatest thing ever. Also, I bought it yesterday through handago for only 5.99 dollars cuz I have a 25% off coupon. Then when you buy it, the annoying 5 start-up splash screen doesn't appear at boot time from your device. Here is the info.
http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php - developers website, after you buy the item then you want to go back here and download the latest version v2.6.6.2, also, you have to activate it through the website using the registration code that you received from Handango.
http://www.handango.com/catalog/Pro...&deviceId=2180&platformId=30&productId=182670 - Buy the item here, you can get 25 percent off of the purchase price by using the coupon "GAMES25", I know it is not a game, but it worked for me ehheehhe. The version that is downloaded from Handango is version v2.6.5. I have been using the "GAMES25" coupon for about 6 months now eheheh, I think they forgot to expire this coupon ehehhe.
Seriously pplz, try the trial, this is the best 5 bucks I have ever spent on software, is the absolute proverbial icing on cake, such a nice finishing touch to my TG01. All in all, this program adds more than 20 new buttons to our devices. Seriously, also I just thought of something you know how you added the little joystick functionality to your usb port (http://www.fpsece.net/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=423&start=0), now you can program those joystick buttons to do additional things too heheh, this program for me has truly completed my phone.
Now if someone can help me with my non-mounting SD card problem I would much appreciate that!!! hehehehee.... hope this helps someone.
-Kili.
PS: When mapping the softkeys, for some reason you have to go from right to left, so map the "<-" key first, then the zoom bar then the home key or something like that, but there is an order to it, just a weird quark and also, there are issues, in particular the newest versions of TouchFlo3D that block some buttons so AE Button Plus is unable to intercept and process them. One definitely needs to test AE Button Plus and see if it will work as you before purchasing. EHHEEHH This is my disclaimer section!

Don't give up on it yet. Many including myself thought that way at first, but when ppl started cooking new roms things got much better. Now i can boldly say that i dont regret buying this phone, especially at such a bargain price. Try the 6.1 rom from here (ffboy must get all the credit for it), read about how to flash a new rom here (SDDL+ Method) and in a few minutes you will have a totaly new phone!! Sound is very very clear (no more comlaints about not being heard etc.), no gps connection problem, free boot ram higher than ever and battery life at it's best.
Good luck! Phone is great, give it another chance!
plus AE Button Plus....

Absolutely agree!
I've been using this program for ages.It's a pity that TG01 has so few hardware buttons:
Anyway: My settings:
volume up for:
1 Single press: Press PageDn (very useful reading)
2 Double press: Ok/Close
3 Triple press: Switch Display Off/On
Volume down for
1 Single press: Resco Audio Recorder -rec (This device don't have REC button.....)
2 Double press: Resco Audio Recorder -exit
3 Triple press: Switch Display Off/On
I'm also using the useless zoom bar to change apps (Like ALT+TAB)
How to?:
Tap Left softkey: File
Add button
Add Key (Touch the zoom bar: The program detects Key code 405C as Win Key)
Tap Add Key
You'll have a new button called Button #405C
Tap & Hold over the new line (Button #405C) and assign Alt+Tab to it
The program ask to self reset, say Yes and .... here you are!
Enjoy!
Thank you Thank you Thank you
Thanks Guys
Flashed with Noksers ROM & SPB
Will try AE Button plus - looks like it will be the DB's (had something similar on my HD (Mobile Magic)

If you want a simple free alternative, you can use HButton 2.3 to remap camera button.

Can you give me a link where i can find this tombraider, i am a fanatic.
i found the link on google searching for tombraider pda
http://www.tombraidertogo.com
hope it's the right one
Just discovered the lack of buttons, I am going to try the different key controls A B C, have you tried those yet? I was hoping the save/pause button is remapped. Will let you know.
All keys are available
use the contacts and calender buttons and the rec button for the above mentioned functions.
The game is almost a direct port - with the exception of no multiple key presses - so you cant make Lara do that handstand climb manouever.
I am glad that I never played the game originally on the playstation - so I am slowly trying to complete it for the first time.
4 months in and I am only up to level 5!!!!!
Jayman
I remember I installed the game, but I had to take it out, because the only way that I could quit the game was resetting the machine, how do you quit?
Jayman are you using a xda?
I cannot access the menu or quit too.
Nope neither can I, how do you map those buttons to save/pause etc, as the man said, the only way out is a soft reset.
Right:::
I use control config A.
Flip screen left and toggle off both running and walking.
Within the game, all soft buttons(ie those on screen) should work as advertised.
D pad -directs Lara
calender - gets out current weapon.
contacts - fires or actions.
record/volume button - accesses menu.
In the menu u can go up and down 3 levels
Inventory - here are your weapons medipaks compass, press the soft select to use a medipak (Lara will groan) or to change weapon.
Above that is Items where you keep anything you have found.
The bottom screen is the options where if you select 'game' you have the option to load or save a game. You can also exit to the title screen.
Then from the title screen you use the same option to exit back to TODAY.
I have also found that if i press one of the phone buttons - it exits imediately without the need for a soft or hard reset and when you restart the game providing you have not hard or soft reset, you are exactly where you left the game.
Hope this all makes sense and is of help to you. If this does not work for you it may be the OS you are running or some software that is providing a conflict. This all worked on original OS and SE1.2 but I have not upgraded to WM2003 yet. If you have any other software that has the rec/volume button mapped - this may be the conflict to prevent you getting to the menus.
Good luck and Good Raiding.
Jayman.
(PS - I never enjoyed single player games on console or PC - always prefered to beat someone in the room - but it is great on a mobile platform when caught out with time to kill - yet would not carry a handheld - so this game is a godsend hence earlier post - MORE PLEASE)
Thanks Jayman.
The copy I am testing is probably a demo :wink:
guys a bit tarded :|
D pad -directs Lara
calender - gets out current weapon.
contacts - fires or actions.
record/volume button - accesses menu.

Not quite accurate.
I haven't tried the Volume button on Tomb Raider specifically, but there are plenty of games that allows you to use the volume button.
Between the ones I can remember are:
Motocross Stunt Racing, Morphgear emulator, Darxide EMP, etc.
i got the full version of tombraider and i could never get the medipk and options up to exit i had to soft reset :\ even when i remaped buttons it dont work for volume :|
Well pressing volume or any of the phone buttons does nothing.
Jayman, are you using an XDA, the phone buttons on mine do zilch, I cannot quit or get a menu once I have started a game.
Yeah I am using the XDA.
I did nothing special when I loaded it on so I can not see how yours would be different - unless you have mapped the buttons in another application that could be affecting it?
Try reinstalling and make sure all apps are closed right down before booting. Also - shouldn't make a difference - but i usually turn the phone off before playing games.
Jayman.
I have spent ages with this, without success, there is no menu at the foot of the screen, just have left/right arrows bottom right, and the movement icons, the volume key does nothing, neither of the phone keys red/green does anything.
i told you it didnt work but no one listened :| only way to exit is soft reset
gaz
i wonder why... i have an emulator, that emulates an old computer of mine, (colecovision ADAM), and IT allows me to map all 5 buttons to play the ADAM roms. hmmm
im sure its just a programing glitch.
i installed the game, great graphics.. but its too sufisticated for me
i like arcade cames, like TURJAH II, SIBERIAN STRIKE X and such.
For all of those who are now running SE thanks to dcs and others. Just download this little app, unzip it, run setup when connected via activesync and then add it to your start menu. Works like a charm and saves having to hard map a button to rotate your screen we are already limited to buttons as it is. I just put it at the top of my start menu and can use from any application of course. Thank you guys for all of your hard work.
not bad at all. but what i did was use phm plus; it gives you the short cut icons to the items in the settings folder (like bt, clock, input, etc). in this case i copied the "screen" shortcut and had it appear in the today screen using tdlaunch. just click on the icon and the option for landscape or portrait comes up.
cheers
thanks .. that was a very nice utility ..
Cool, another way is to assign it a hardware button, very easy t flip on the fly.
RE
Hi ZeroXtreme!
If you'll to assign the RotateSE to a hardware button its slower than the default Rotate Screen because of the rotating circle.
I think creating a shotcut on the Today screen launcher program is still a better choice and it can also relieves one of the hardware buttons for other use.
Thnx
Works as intended...
thats weird :? ...
does'nt WM2003SE has a <Rotate Screen> at "Assign a program:" list in Buttons section ?! :?:
in my i-mate JAM i can rotate the screen between 'Portrait' and 'Landscape(right-handed)' by pressing "Record" button
i wonder if xda2 wm2003se has it or not, coz mine gone junk while i'm upgrading to chines rom SE
later 8)
@NightmarE
Yes, it does have the hardware button assignment, the problem is that most of us have already used all the hardware buttons for other tasks, so a Start menu option is a nice solution...
I agree I have upgraded to the blue angel but having it in the start menu is much better than hardmapping it to a button, I posted the app for those who want a different option, if you want to waste a button on just rotation then be my guest but some of like myself don't use screen rotation that often then it is better in the start menu and not on a button that I need, considering I use alot of apps like Microsoft Voice Command.
It os better to have it in the Start Menu than in a Today Screen, if you are in the middle of a app it is easier to just open the Start Menu and rotate than go through settings->screen or close then today then back to the app...
I'm using SPB Pocket Plus and add "rotate screen to the right" to close/minimize dialog ... That's just how I do it. Free Up start menu slot for my other frequently used apps.
Right now I'm quite a happy XDA2 user
use PHM utility to add a shortcut of RotatSE in Task bar near by bluetooth icon it will be like i-mate Jam icon 8) ...
laters :lol:
I assinged one hardware button to flip the screenand made the flipting system easily and fast...
Works great on the Treo 700wx. Thanks!
Hi, is ROM version 1.66.00WWE a wm2003SE?
Just tried the software a while ago but it didn't work.
Is there a version of this working on wm2003? just found out that my phone is not wm2003SE version but a wm2003, software not compatible with wm2003. :c
Works ok, but...
Hi.
It works fine, but how I configure it to rotate to the other side (clockwise) ??
Thanks in advance,
Joe
On WM2003SE or WM2003, I can use the navigational button to navigate the call history and speed dial function. But after I upgrade to WM2005, those function seems disappear. Does anybody experience that problem and how to get it back those functions. Thank you
XDA II
ROM Version: 1.50f.blWWE
ROM Date: 05/13/2005
Radion Version: 1.18.00
Protocol Version: 1337.38
Yap... I have the same problem! Don´t know why that hapens.
But it´s real bad...
i have the same problem
and it seems that the camera and the record button on the left side of my XDAII does not functioning as well.
but before i upgrade my XDA im sure that i was functioning.
pls help.
Not sure what you are talking about, but on mine, I can still use the Navigational DPAD to browse my Call History and Speed Dial... :wink:
mine is working
thats the some with hardware butons camera and record
people who camera and record butons doesnt work navpad does work also?
al butons in my xda are working as expected .....
I've the camera and record butons working, but navigational DPAD doesn't.
Well, once the phone dialer is runnig, I can't use anymore the DPAD, left or rigth movements to call respectively the "Speed Dial" and "Call History" (very incovinient).
Instad the only way now, is to use the soft buton "menu" or the butons at the dialer.
Off course, once the "Speed Dial" or "Call History" functions are activated, the DPAD can be used again to navigate up/down inside

I still don't get it!
What's so hard about using your thumb to press the respective on-screen buttons instead than the DPad? They're just a couple of centimeters appart? :roll:
.. you would avoid the finger prints on the touchscreen...
and less finger movements required, cause all actions, left, rigth, up, down, would be in the same pad.
Fernando
Good point, but then how do you manage not to get any facial grease on the display while talking? (don't tell me you ALWAYS use a Bluetooth headset!)
Besides, this devices are meant to be used with the stylus or fingers (I know it's a personal choice, but...), just use a decent screen protector and lens cloth to clean it from time to time and you are done.
And if you are so paranoial about finger prints, grease and finger movement, why don't you get a smartphone instead? (that reminds me, don't you ever type SMS or text? 'cause that's one hell of finger movements)
Cheers!
Rayan
Got your point. You're rigth.
But why not to have a simple functionality
- when it is simple to implement
- it was previously available
- and you're already used to it
I can tell you, I used it always this way with WM2003.
That's my point.
Fernando
Okay, I will not argue with that, you are right! ... :?
I mean, I understand that WM5.0 by nature, it's supposed to be more one-hand-friendly so the DPAD is supposed to be used for one hand opperations and that's true in the rest of the interface, so you ask WHY NOT ON THE DIALER?!? :roll:
But I would go even further... WHY THE HELL MICROSOFT DIDN'T FIX THE RECURRENT ALARMS ON WM5.0????? :evil:
But that's another story!!! :lol:
Cheers!
I made this program in answer to a request in the HD2 General forum, but thought I should post it here.
It's a small app that toggles the display orientation back and forth to the rotation of your choice, without the need for the g-sensor.
The default installation includes the settings screen (available from your start menu), and the application itself, which is available via a long-hold of the call button. When the application is first installed, it defaults to standard landscape (the left of the phone being the bottom), but this can be changed via the settings screen.
BIG THANKS!! to vonski and Eldorado9 for their patience and testing. Thanks guys
Have fun
Note:
Manila doesn't like being forced into landscape, so you can't use this app for that - sorry. It works upside-down, just not sideways. (I've got a HD2 with Sense/Manila 2.5)
Also, I've only tested this on a WVGA device and would like to know how it works on other resolution devices, so please feel free to private message me with any feedback regarding this.
Change details (26/01/2010)
Removed the long_send link that was originally being installed in the Windows folder.
For some reason, when you press the call button to answer a call, it executes the long_send link, despite only being a quick send.
This only happens when there's an incoming call. I've removed this link from the installer, but you still execute the toggle with a long-hold of the call button.
NOTE: The installer will remove the long_send link from your windows folder.
Change details (13/01/2010)
Added the settings screen so there's now only 1 installer, instead of 3.
If you do have the previous version, you can simply delete it from the windows folder, or just leave it and install this one.
It will override the existing version's functionality, despite being able to install it on your storage card now.
Great Job!
John,
Great job and thanks for this. First thing that comes to mind is why did you not combine these into one programme so one can have the option to go left, right or upside down without having to install 3 separate apps?
If its not difficult to do and you can spare the time to do it then I would be very interested in a single combined app that I could run off my quicklinks.
I'm subscribing to this thread to watch developments.
Thanks again.

It actually is 1 program, but the shortcut (long_send) is different in each zip file, and that tells the app which direction to rotate the display.
This started because someone asked for an app that would put their display in landscape and then back again, with a long-hold on the call button. After I'd done that for them, someone else asked for the opposite direction. Whilst doing that I remember that someone had once asked how to change the display to upside-down, so I did that at the same time.
The main idea here is that you pick a default rotation, and then you only have a button press to toggle it on and off. Anything more than that would require a UI and therefore more interaction, and since I'm trying to keep interaction to a minimum, that sort of goes against the principle of it.
I'll have a think about it though, but I think what you're suggesting is a completely different application. I'm not against doing that, but it won't be part of the development of this.
Thanks for the suggestion mate
Ah ok, I see. Also understand the "minimalist" philosophy behind the development.
The way I would use a programme like this would be to have it as a quicklink on my front screen (I tend not to link things to hardware buttons) which would then give me the options of (L)eft, (R)ight or (U)pside Down. If that requires a UI (I guess it does) then don't go to all that trouble.
The problem with me is I don't always rotate my device the same way all the time (I'm weird like that) although upside down is a new one on me (I remember Tubgirl, I think, asking for that).
Cheers anyway.

Very nice....it's much more convenient than using BSBTweaks and shaking it... Thanks!
Just a quick question:
I use the Standard Windows Hardware Button Assignment and mapped my internet browser button with "rotate Screen"...
now here for the question: Is it possible to write that app for other buttons too? 'cause i'd love to have multifunction on my browser button and your app is almost perfect for it^^ short press = Opera, long hold = rotate... that would be SO AWESOME!!!!
btw: your app is great as it is now.... it's just a question^^

I think to do what you've suggested, you'd need something like AEButtons. I've never used it myself, but I believe you can assign different actions for long and short button presses to hardware buttons.
Hope this helps
Thanks thanks thank you very much
another key assignement
is it possible to assignt the exe not to long send button but to windows start button (u know that one in the middle in htc leo-next to home button)
tnx in advance.

You'll need to look at other software for that. Try AEButtons. It's not something I use myself, but I believe it will do what you want.

Heh - They're far from honed! If it were a windows (PC) app I was building, I'd have no problems. I'm pretty nifty around windows on a PC, but mobile dev is pretty new to me, so I'm just picking it up as I go along. It's always good to find someone asking for something that makes me think "I could do that!"

Thanks for the comment mate - nice to know it's working well on a different resolution.
I seldom use the search function on my n1 (quick press search button), compared to my shortcut (long press search button).
I'd love to have the function on the button flipped, so that only when I long press search I get to search, but simply quick pressing it brings me to quickdesk (my shortcut)
There has got to be others interested in this, but I can't find any solution on how to solve it..
Can somebody help me out?

I THINK someone looked at this before, and without having an app running actively ALL the time to remap the default single press keys, its impossible.

Or i assume, editing the framework from source ? Like how wysie did it with long-press home-button. If u dont know what im referring to try cm6.
The home button long press change in cm6 is really nice.
Wondering how deep in the OS/framework these changes are..
Basically the OS should register the 4 "hardware" buttons the same way, so if one can be changed, all should be able to be changed..
Also since I just wanna swap functions, there is no need for a gui/front end to control the changes or map certain programs to it.
(I wouldn't complain if cm6 got a full search button control for both short and long press though)

It should be possible, but I took a brief look at the source and couldn't find it -_-. Will look harder next week. (Weekend's here )
