i browes the registry of the wm2k5 in XDA2 O2, i figured out that that there is no registry for the camera and record button,. can we add up reg for camera and rec button
so can we? can we?
those key's registry are there.
hklm\software\microsoft\shell\keys
and those shortcuts are pointing to RAI assignments.
it would be better to write an application, which will unmap rec and cam buttons from system and remap them to itself... so if you press that button, this app will capture keypress event and will run camera or notes...

uhmm,. just a hitch anyway,. hehe

Hi,
So have you tried with RegisterHotkey API? Here is a simple application that reregisters all hardware buttons to its window, and if you press hardware buttons a messagebox should pop up with hardware key id. Anybody can try it with non working buttons? ( I haven't upgraded my device yet ) I tried it on my wm2k3SE device and with Win Mobile 5 emulator in Viusal Studio 2005. ( It worked )
If it's working then I think it is possible to write an application as background process to start camera and notes application with windows API. If it's not working and doesn't show anything if you press CAM/REC, then it must be a driver issue (
I would like to thanks buzz for hiz extremely good work!!
I am sad now because of this ms guy
I tray this file and buttons rec and cam don't working, other buttons working

It works great on my Himalaya with WM5 1.60a installed. But even without this sw my Himalaya dont have any problem with the Record and camera buttons. Try it.
I use this basically to:
- Unmap all the buttons including the Green and Red Button, and the Volume slider.
- Remap the Volume Slider to Up and Down keys.
- Remap the Green and Red Buttons as Left and Right Softkeys. This way you can access WM5 apps soft menu using only the buttons and the biderectional pad.
- Any other key you can map to anything you want.
because some device have problem with this two buttons and with or without this software they still dont work
It seems that something is wrong with my keyboard and my hardware buttons , i press the communication button and it opens explorer i press messaging button and the communication manager opens . The same happens with camera and explorer button.Some of the keyboard buttons are messed and every time i press them more than one characters are written. This happened after going to wm6. I tried installing O2 rom but it didn't solve my problems. pls help me if you have any solutions.
Start > Settings > Buttons
You can change all the shortcuts there
I create Long_Home.lnk:
29#"\Windows\CeleTask.exe"
and I copy this file to /Windows but it doesn`t work...
This trick work on my QTEK 8130, why it doesn`t work on S740?
Same problem
I also switch from Qtek 8310 (HTC Tornado) to the Rose and miss the long press feature much. Still get the problem to remap some of the HW keys to long press. There are different links for camera button and the other HW buttons than on another HTC WM6.1 devices, so the old tricks do not work. So please, anybody know how to remap some of the buttons - Home, leftsoft, etc. for long press?
Ok, so loving my HTC S740 after changing from Qtek 8500. I know to initiate keylock you have to hold down the End Key for 2 seconds, but I am used to just closing my Qtek 8500 after a call to lock it. I also know you can activate auto keylock, but I need to keep my keys open sometimes. I would like to be able to just short press the Camera button to Keylock the phone. I have got as far as remapping the Camera button by changing the shortcut Short_Camera.lnk. Tried it by renaming Internet Explorer shorcut and it works! So far so good. But what shortcut to use or how to setup a shortcut for keyLock to remap to Short_Camera.lnk.
I know this sounds really petty, but can't wait and hold the End Key for 2 seconds every time!
Any help appreciated.
I don't know if it's possible by clean way without installing anything, but I have done this by assigning one harware button to 'turn off display' in AE Button Plus (which also locks keypad)
btw, I really like behaviour of some touchscreen htc devices where is device switched to standby by upper hardware button, and no other button can wake up device. It would be great to set up my S740 this way - anyone know if it is possilbe somehow?
I'm using a HD2 running stock 3.14 rom. It has a hardware home button on the button. I'm wondering if it is possible to have a software home button fixed on the taskbar cause the hardware home button is difficult to access with one hand operation. Thanks for any help...
