NEW VERSION 2.3
*** this application is no longer developed. Last version (2.3) is attached to this post ***
I didn’t find freeware application for assign more applications to one HW button using hold-button, so I decided to write my own. Here is result.
Application HButton can be used to assign more applications to one HW button. If you press the button, the first application is run. If you hold button till device vibrate, second app is run. If you hold button till second vibrate, third app…. And so on, and so forth.
Usage:
* Install attached cab.
* Run HBSetup (Programs - HButton - HBSetup), setup up to 5 applications to Button1
* Start Setting – personal – Buttons and assign HButton1 to any HW button.
Now you can run all selected applications using this one HW button.
Any topics welcome.

.NET2.0 necessary
One more remark.
.NET 2.0 is necessary to use HBSetup. If you want to use HButtons without .NET, you can install it from cab and setup it manually using registry editor.
For Notify and flags use sum of numbers for options you want. for example notify=5 means vibrate and display name
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton]
Delay : DWORD [I]delay in ms between applications start. (Optional, Deafult 500)[/I]
Notify : DWORD [I]type of notification. 1 - vibrate, 2 - Beep, 4 - display name. (Optional, default 1)[/I]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton\Button1]
flags : DWORD [I]flags for this button. 1 for cycle thru apps, 2 for notify even first app, 4 custom delay. (Optional, default 0)[/I]
Delay : DWORD [I]delay in ms between for this button. Only when custom delay is set. (Optional)[/I]
NItems : DWORD [I]number of applications assigned to HButton1[/I]
Item0 : STRING [I]first application[/I]
Item0_name : STRING [I]displayed name of first application. (Optional)[/I]
Item0_param : STRING [I]Parameters of first application. (Optional)[/I]
Item1 : STRING [I]second application[/I]
Item1_name : STRING [I]displayed name of second application. (Optional)[/I]
Item1_param : STRING [I]Parameters of second application. (Optional)[/I]
…
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton\Button2]
[I].. same for others buttons[/I]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton\ButtonT]
flags : DWORD [I]flags for task. same as other flags + 8 for show next application + 16 for first item is last opened application. (Optional, default 8)[/I]
Delay : DWORD [I]same as for buttons[/I]
Special applications:
#t - <Today> (i.e. Item0="#t" )
#o - <Ok/Close>
#q - <Quit>
#w - <Start Menu>
#c - <Clock> (*_name must be set to "<Clock>")
#b - <Back>
Cycling
Hello there.
Its a nice tool. Thanks for that.
What about to cycle through defined applications till the button is released? If I do miss the application which I want to launch - it launches the last defined application. I do think there should be the way how to "cancel" the launching at all or something like this.
Sincerely David

Thanks for remark.
My idea was to start last application immediately, when there is no application left – if you have two applications assigned to one button, second will run exactly after 500ms(or delay you have set).
In your situation, there is necessary to release button in proper time.
But I think, that it could be added as possibility – so user can choose, if
- it will works like now
- it will cycle thru defined applications
- last application will be "CANCEL". (or combination with previous one)
It unfortunately fails to install on my smartphone (VOX).
Can you build a version for smartphone?
Thanks!
Smartphone
I can't promise anything, because I have no experiences with Smartphones.
But I will try to compile it.
I have found the problem of missing the app I want to be a nag as well. As dmisek said, if you have 5 apps assigned to a button and you miss the app you want, you have to take one of the following.
As a quick work around, I created a link to the today screen and added it to the last app of each button. So, the worst case there is that if I miss my intended app, I will at least go back to the today screen.
As a suggestion for a fix, I would probably say to have the apps loop over and over in the list. I would also suggest adding a "Cancel" like you said in the list.

As I said before, I have no smartphone. There is some version, but not tested. Use it at your's own risk.
Vibration is not vorking - I used functions that doesn't exists on smartphones. If everythink else will work, I will try to find substitute for this functions.
hopes that help
Hundera
Hundera: Thanks for your time. Unfortunately it still doesn't install ("The installation file is not intended for this device").
The WM6 standard edition on my VOX smartphone doesn't have a button changer in the settings menu.
Does anyone know which executable is responsible for this on a PPC?
Alternatively can anyone provide me the registry keys?
Thx!
Maybe smartphone has no button to map.
On PocketPC it is store in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\.
There are keys 40Cx for buttons...
If you havn't these keys, app will not work...
I've got one regkey 40C1 (voice record button) and that's exactly the button I'd like to use with HButton.
Can you write down the steps to install your app manually?
(files and reg keys)
Oh btw, is it the ResetCmd value in 40C1 key I need to change?
Currently it's set to "\Windows\AppButtons\Record.lnk -b"
Hi,
there are two exe files.
HBSetup is for settings HButtons. If it doesn't work, see post with registry description.
Into reg key "Default" add path to HButton with param 1 (or what HButton you will set).
for example "\Program Files\HButton\HButton.exe 1"
ResetCmd is origin value. It's not neccessary to change it.
Bad luck. I can't start button.exe in any way. Not via the 40c1 hw key and neither from fexplore.
I manually created the HButton reg key and the made the change to the 40C1 reg key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton]
"Delay"=dword:000001f4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HButton\Button1]
"Item0"=""\Storage Card\Tools\Fakecursor\Fakecursor.exe""
"NItems"=dword:00000001
=============================================
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C1]
@=""\Storage Card\Tools\HButton\Button.exe" 1"
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"Icon"="hotvoice.exe, 0"
"ResetCmd"=""\Windows\AppButtons\Record.lnk" -b"
=============================================
If I press the hw button it starts the voice tag recorder as usual.
Any clue?
Thx for your patience
Did you try HBSetup? works?
Settings in registry looks fine.
What Button.exe does, when you run it from fexplorer? Nothing, or throw some error?

Yes, it runs fine from fexplorer
But ... it doesn't start when pressing the voice record button
So close ...
Does HTC do something different with the HW keys on Smartphones
strange...
What voice record button does? Start recording as default or do nothing?
If start recording - try to rewrite another reg value in this registry key. Maybe ResetCmd?
If it do nothing - try to write only "\Storage Card\Tools\HButton\Button.exe" into "Default" key, without param 1.

After pressing the button it beeps 3 times and first opens a window "Alert Speak after the audio prompt" followed for a short time by a window "Recognizing Voice Tag" where it says "there is no trained voice tag" and then exits. I never used this application and don't know yet how it works.
If start recording - try to rewrite another reg value in this registry key. Maybe ResetCmd?

Tried both, but to no avail
Perhaps I have to play around with reg keys like :MSVOICE or :MSHOTVOICE in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai
No ideas :-(
As usual you have to delete rilphone in registry but for some it still doesnt work and we had tried almost everything if you look at the settings key right below where rilphone.dll was their is a key that flat out says disableinternetsharing and its set to 1 set to 0 or delete i set to 0 as to not have to worry if it will regenerate just encase .The key is hklm\comm\internetsharing\settings.

Windows 7 Sideload Instructions
Hope this helps some people - I tried to be very step-by-step about it.
Again, thank you Pokey9000, the guys and gals from the IRC channel, and everybody else for all of your hard work! 99.9% of this is an aggregation of what is already in this thread; some of it comes from nookdevs also.
You will need the following applications on your Windows 7 computer:
- cygwin (www dot cygwin dot com)
- Android Debug Bridge (ADB) - this comes with the android SDK
- Android USB Drivers - this comes with the android SDK
-- (WOQ) stands for without quotes, it means that I am giving you something between quotes to copy and paste.
-- if you see <some_odd_name> inside quotes, it means you MUST replace this with something from your specific OS instance (e.g. a drive letter, or something)
1. make sure your NC is disconnected from you computer
2. make sure your SD card is mounted on your computer (readable/browsable in explorer)
3. Install cygwin - you only need the base install AFAICT (YMMV), don't worry about the options for now.
4. download nooter at http //www dot mediafire dot com/?hugt8uxcfffpdvg
5. extract the contents to a folder in your cygwin install (standard install path is c:\cygwin)
6. Go to: Start, type in (WOQ) "compmgmt.msc" - this may require UAC elevation
7. Select "Disk Management" under storage
8. note the drive letter of the SD card and the disk number
9. Go To: Start > All Programs > Cygwin > Cygwin Bash Shell
10. At the prompt, type (WOQ): "mount //./<f>: /dev/sd<c>"
Where <f> is your drive letter, and
<c> is the letter you would get if you zero-indexed the disk number into the alphabet (i.e. 0 = a, 1 = b) **
11. press enter - there should be no output
12. at the prompt, type (WOQ): "dd if=<path_to_nooter_from_cygwin_install_folder>/nooter_sdcard_40MB.img of=/dev/sd<c>"
It will sit at this for a few minutes seeming to do nothing, be patient; you should get a response eventually that looks like:
80326+0 records in
80326+0 records out
41126912 bytes (41 MB) copied, 174.525 s, 236 kB/s
13. remove the sd card from the computer and plug it into the NC
14. power down the NC (hold power button for 15 seconds)
15. connect the NC to the computer
16. Wait for a "Composite Device" to be recognized by Windows and fail to install drivers
17. Wait for 15 seconds after the recognition
18. power down the NC
19. remove SD card ***
20. Find your android_winusb.inf file - this is located in your android-sdk install directory in the usb_driver folder. (NOTE: if you installed this in the program files folder, you will need to UAC elevate your editor to edit this file)
21. Paste the following lines into the file below both occurrences of the line ";Moto Sholes" after the ADBInterface definitions:
;B & N Nook Color
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2080&PID_0002
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2080&PID_0002&MI_01
22. save the file and close
23. find your adb_usb.ini file - it is usually located in c:\users\<username>\.android\
24. add (WOQ) "0x2080" on its own line
25. power on NC - at this point, the NC should boot normally, but ADB won't be able to recognize it
26. Go To: Start > Devices and Printers
27. Right-click on Nook and select properties
28. Select the hardware tab
29. If you have something that says "Nook" and has a yellow yield sign with a "!", then continue, if not skip to 38
30. Click on "Nook"
31. Select Properties
32. Click Change Settings (may require UAC elevation)
33. Click update driver
34. Select "browse for driver software on your computer"
35. Browse to the android-sdk/usb_driver folder
36. click next
37. You should be done; skip to 47 (I have no idea if this is correct - i pieced it together from somewhere in this as I did not get Nook to appear in the Device Functions List)
38. If you don't have a "Nook" Device Function, click on "USB Mass Storage Device"
39. Select Properties
40. Click Change Settings (may require UAC elevation)
41. Select the Driver Tab
42. Click Uninstall
43. Click OK
44. Disconnect NC
45. Reconnect NC
46. You should be done (this is different from my previous instructions on how to uninstall the NC USB drivers, I have not tested it so YMMV)
47. Go To: start > run > cmd
48. type (WOQ): "cd <path_to_android_sdk>\tools"
49. type (WOQ): "adb.exe kill-server"
You should get something like:
* server not running *
50. type (WOQ): "adb.exe remount"
You should get something like:
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
remount failed: No such file or directory
51. You are done configuring to sideload
From here you should be able to sideload from ADB.

Just to throw it out there...
Does this cause a PERMANENT change to the Color Nook?
Edit: thank you for posting this
I believe it was mentioned in a previous post that if you did a factory reset (power off completely, then hold power, nook button and vol up) that it would reset the Nook back to non rooted factory defaults. Can anyone else confirm this?

Do you think a partitioned SD card woul dprevent this from working?
I'm pretty sure my card is partitioned....I read something in the BIG THREAD about departitioning a card.....
I can't get this to work for me and I just thought my card might be the culprit.
Thanks
I cannot find the file listed in step 23. This is the only thing keeping me from root. Also when I plug my nc in, the light on the cord is amber instead of green. It tells me that adb drivers are installed. But it won't show up as a folder in my computer any more. How do I add files without removing the SD card and plugging it into my computer.

I did this on 32 bit - AFAIK, they don't support cygwin on 64 bit yet (it might run though, but YMMV).
The back and menu buttons are soft-buttons. The nook for some reason hides them by default in a bunch of apps.

It could be hidden (so you'll have to change the hidden files and folders setting), or installed in another user directory (like Admin).
If I run Windows XP, how many of these steps would change? I'm thinking it might need its own thread.

So once your rooted, do you need to do anything special to install apk files that you download from dropbox? Is superuser ready?
i cant find the android_winusb file in the windows XP version of the android SDK. is there a different one that does the same?
EDIT: it appears the sdk is not split between versions of windows
im going to reinstall the sdk and see maybe if i accidently deleted it at some point

Very little changes; the only thing I can tell you off the top of my head is that
C:\users\<username>\.android\
Becomes
C:\documents and settings\<username>\.android\
Also, I don't know where, besides device manager, that you could locate the nook like you do in devices and printers - it may show up in my computer, also in scanners and cameras in the control panel - you can always right click a drive, select properties, select the hardware tab, select the b&n storage device, click properties, select the driver tab and uninstall from there....
HTH
EDIT: To delete the NC through device manager:
start > run > compmgmt.msc
browse to Device Manager
Expand Universal Serial Bus Controllers
Select USB Mass Storage Device (there may be multiple)
Right-Click and select "properties"
select the details tab
in the dropdown, select "Hardware Ids" - if this says "USB\VID_2080&...." then this is the NC
click ok
right Click again and select uninstall
disconnect NC from computer
reconnect NC to computer
NC re-finds all drivers, including ADB
start > run > cmd
cd <android-sdk-dir>\tools
adb.exe remount
Fixed instructions!
that's what I get for writing this crap at 1 in the AM ... I left out two INSANELY important steps at step 11.

When you updated the SDK, did you install the USB drivers also? If you did, that file should be in whatever directory you installed the SDK in under the usb_driver subdirectory.

I'm an idiot, I was certain the USB Drivers were installed. Done and done now, sheesh what a waste of time!
now to hunt for adb_usb which is being a pain to find too. Has anyone found adb_usb on XP?
I can see the folder C:\documents and settings\<username>\.android\ but theres two folders in there for AVD and AndroidDesktopNotifier. Maybe if someone can upload the adb_usb file I can just throw it in the folder and cross my fingers?

Amend ShowInShell 0 to 1
Amend PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell 1 to 0

"This PC can't run Windows 11"
like many, i am getting this error. i have a built PC with a Ryzen 7 2700X. I think there might be a BIOS setting to enable TPM, but I haven't checked yet. Anyone else run into this? this is the link to the Windows 11 compatibility checker...

1: Create your own installation media
2: The steps necessary to remove the "Secure Boot" and "TPM 2.0" requirements error when attempting to install Windows 11
3: Obtain the newest available Windows 10 ISO from Micro$0ft;
Already have made your Windows 11 USB Installer using Rufus;
Mount Windows 10 ISO;
Find and locate the folder named Sources on the mounted ISO;
Copy all of the files in the Sources folder of the mounted ISO except for install.wim/install.esd;
Navigate to the Windows 11 bootable USB Installer that you have previously created in your File Manager;
Open the Sources folder on the Windows 11 bootable USB Installer;
Paste the previously copied contents/files from the Sources folder on the mounted Win 10 ISO to the Sources folder of the Windows 11 bootable USB Installer, and make sure to replace the files present in the Windows 11 USB Installer Sources folder;
Boot from Windows 11 USB Installer;
Profit from not having the requirements of Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 being enabled in place.
For more deatils hereis detailed tutorial. Link.
Interesting. Has anyone actually tried this method with success?
I'll give it a try
I remember very similar pains when Windows 10 first released. I think everything will be fine for the most part as long as your machine can run Windows 10. Not much is different between the two.
Thank you thank you thank you I thought I was screwed too I've got an old optiplex 790 with a Intel i5 4 series and I just booted all I did was change the registry through the BIOS on the front end during the install which means I made the ISO file for USB UEFI boot I got the error saying that my machine hardware was not suitable for Windows 11 so I hit shift and F10 to command prompt and entered notepad because I already copied the registry into a text document that's accessible from the file menu in the notepad never done that before and that was pretty cool..copied it and then went back to the command prompt and went to the regedit.exe... copy what I had on the the text document into the actual local registry and then started the install process all over and Golden... I had to actually download the ISO file from Android host file of all places checksum good worked out everything's even better when I can beat the status quo

I am using it through leaked win 11 iso
Yes. I did it pretty much the same but unpacked/repacked install.wim, and renamed to install.esd with just the target version.
TPM 1.2 I never enabled secure boot and it's a 6th gen. Windows update is being a sore loser.
You may need to edit the registry after. Lookin' around myself.
The simplest solution that worked for me:
