Hello,
Does someone know a solution for mapping the hardware buttton that normaly launch internet explorer? I would like to use it for X/closing cause I'm already tired to go on the upper side of the screen. i.e. when you put a new meeting with the keyboard, it is hard to go to the cross (up and right) for "saving" the new meeting.
I just bought this phone cause it has a good harware keyboard, but it's not important for me to have a direct access to internet explorer.
Thanks for your replies!!

Which button are you talking about?
I use AE Button to assign the Voice Recorder button to the OK/Close function and it works brilliantly. You can assign single press, long press and double press to different functions. It's a great little app that takes up very little system resources.
I'd still like to know which button is the Internet Explorer button because I didn't know we had that feature!
EDIT: Okay I just realised that you probably have the 16 key version whereas mine is the 20 key version
that's it, I've got the 16 key keypad. I really miss teh Ok/close button, caus I have to grip off my phone for going to the upper right corner of the screen and come back to the keypad....
AE button, doesn't work for this button, neither Vito button...
Anyone an other solution

Why doesn't AE Button Plus work?
I use it for OK/Close and it works perfectly well
So I must not have using it the good way.
But wich button are you talking about, cause with AE button, it only "see" the three external button (wich are on the side). I know that you can assign every button with AEbutton, but when I assign the internet key for ok/close, it close the app the first time I use it and then the key come back to its previous function (internet explorer). Someone a reg trick?
I have the 16 key version too and want the same, an ok button on the keyboard. button utilities only recognize the hardware buttons and not the keyboard buttons so there is no way to map these. hopefully someone will update their utility to include the keyboard buttons.
cheers,

"happy" to see that I'm not the only one who don't suceed by trying to change the function of the internet explorer button on a 16 keypad of a dual for using it with the ok/close button...
I found the camera button akwardly placed (kept launching the damn thing by accident) and dont use the camera much - so I remapped the cam button to OK/Close and have found this does the job for me. Not really a solution I know, but it wokrs for me.
Yes AE Button is great, but while you can map any key like Mail or IE, it will still launch the old app, we'd have to find a way to not launch the old app, in the registry possibly.

I have found the same. Has anyone managed to map IE button succesfully? Also there is a pause/delay when using buttons handled by AE Button, has anyone else noticed this?
any updates!? i think it can be done in the registry though i don't know how. hope that someone can crack this.

I have found a rudimentary solution. Add the IE key using AE Button Plus and run the following Mortscript (I am still a novice scripter) to close IE when it opens automatically and then run Opera Mini.
WaitFor("Internet Explorer",5)
Close("Internet Explorer")
Run("\Windows\jbed.exe", "-run s0_")
It works for me. If anyone has any suggestions on improving it, please let me know.
anythig new about this, pls?
thx

Did anyone has a solution for this? Have been searching to change Ok/Enter and IE buttons. AEBPlus doesnt really work perfectly and eat into RAM..
Can we change registry? lnk? read somewhere about long_press_xxxx.ink but dont find it in our Nike.
Anybody found a solution for this? I've tried everything but couldn't map the IE button on my 16-key Nike to OK/Close.
Hi guys!
Is it possible to change hardware buttons behaviour?
For example, the double press of the home button calls vlingo, what if I want it to call Google Voice Actions?
Or, a long press of the home button pops-up the list of recently used application, what if I'd like it to open an other task manager I installed from market?
Thank you so much!!

Can anyone at here help me with this problem? I'm new at here. This is the problem, before today, I can type chinese without problems until just now when I type, the typing box (when you press on the space to type, then the keyboard will just pop up for you to type) will automatically close when I press any key on the keyboard. This problem only happens when I type chinese words with PinYin, I can type english words without any problem. As example, the keyboard pop out then I want to type 哈 in it, then when I press the first PinYin of 哈, which is h, then the keyboard will automatically close and nothing shows at the blank space, then I'll press the blank space again, the keyboard pops out for me to type, then when I press anyone of the words on the keyboard, it closes again. This happens over and over again. Anyone can solve this please? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi,
I've changed the behavior of standard hardware buttons from /system/usr/keylayout.kl. But what about the long press behavior, or double tap?! I want to hold Home button for rotate screen, and hold Menu button to anything else than google search.
Someone know's how?
Thanks in advice!
Well... >100 visitors but no response ))
I will just try harder to find a response to my question, like in every post that i wrote here )
Try and app called "homemyhome".
You are the MAN !!!
Thank you VERY VERY much, is a very good application, is for double tap and is very ok. If you find some for Menu button, don't ezitate to tell me...
Thanks again!
I used the app called Advanced Home Button....
Must be rooted...
Hello all,
I have a small issue with WidgetLocket on the latest released stock jellybean ROM. I have to use the homehelper or pressing the home button from sleep causes to bypass widgetlocker, which isn't really usefull. Homehelper, well, helps here but when I press the home button with homehelper enabled, the screen flickers (brief moment black).
Anyone else had/have this problem? Can't find a solution anywhere.
Regards
I've had this exact same problem, can't find a solution either. Hopefully someone can help!
