Looks good. Can you make a cab file also? Never like having to use PC to install.

It's not installable from PC.
Attached file is PPC-ARM executable.
You need simply to copy it into PPC and run.
I see.... That's good. Thank. Will try out and give you feedback soon. Cheers.
edit:
Tried this. Absolutely the best comm manager I've seen. Love the short and long touch concept.
What are some examples of how we can use the user button?
Thank you for this very good tool.
This should be the comm manager of choice for ROM cooks.

... simply don't use it
Seriously:
All buttons, exept "Airplane" has same behavior:
1. You can run hard-configured tasks
2. Additionaly you can run applications of your choice. Remember: only when application terminates you are getting back to VCommManager.
3. If "Perform ... tasks" is not selected - you have to specify application for status check. Return value is 0 == inactive state, !0 == active state.
4. Remember to use fully specified apps (no .lnk, etc)
For instance to take screenshot I have changed in Config/Data:
1. Unmarked "Perform configured tasks"
2. Added "\Windows\magic ss.exe" (with quotes) in "Run on Activate"
User button is treated similary, exept that it has no "predefined" and has "demo" picture - you must use external bitmap to create some look.
Nice! Its a handy little tool.
Thank you for your kind contribution, it is working very well in 128dpi.
Excellent! I like being able to turn off GPRS when required - my previous solution involved creating a "Null" connection and setting it to be the active one!
It took me a while to figure out how to get skins to work, though - I was assuming a relative path, and it needed absolute. Perhaps a browse button on the Skin text box might be a good idea?
Here's a skin I threw together from resources grabbed out of PK2 Kaiser Comm VGA:
Thanks very much for this app. Solved my problems in Real VGA Comm Manager.
Everyone, just rename the file VCommManager to CommManager and use Total Commander to replace the original Comm Manager in the ROM then soft reset. So that all icons pertaining to Comm Manager now defaults to the renamed VCommManger.
Excellent Application. Thanks.
Basically all you have to do is
1....Obtain the VCommManager.exe file from the link above.
2....Rename VCommManager to CommManager.
3....Use Total Commander or any powerful file manager to replace the ROM Comm Manager with the newly renamed CommManager (formerly VCommManager), by sending the file to the Windows folder.
4....SOFT RESET
Now all icons pertaining to the built in Comm Manager points to VCommManager. Solved all problems in VGA mode. Very nice application. Thank you again for sharing.
thanks much 8)
Multilanguage
If you like this application and want to participate to make it multilanguage...
I'm attaching Exel document of all needed to translate strings.
Those are only in my dialogs and menu's...
Control panel dialog language depends on your system.
I will recompile as soon as:
1. At least 3 languages are added
2. After last addon there are 48 hours spent
If you are adding some language - please send back modified file here (or alternitavely to my PM).
Spanish translation

VCommManager Ver 0.2
Update to version 0.2
For instalation instructions look into post #1 in this thread.
(If you already have ver 0.1 - simply copy .exe file on top of old one)
Changes:
1. Fixed "Run On Long Press" function (realy it never worked)
2. On Long Press enabled both - internal config and external app
(for instance, if you want to run both configuration dialogs on WiFi long press you can leave "Start Network Control" checked and enter
"\Windows\WlanMgr.exe"
into Run box)
3. Fixed dialogs in "Portrait" mode (Landscape was OK)
4. Added SIM PIN support - it's for users, that have PIN enabled.
Go to "About" tab to configure your PIN.
Feature is needed to enter automatically PIN: swithing from "Aircraft" mode, swithing phone on or changing 3G <-> GPRS.
5. Added "Language" support.
For now only English-Spain: I have not received more translations.
Thanks for the update.
How do I use the skin?
The reference to relative and absolute paths in post 8 is a bit cryptic for me. I have tried inserting \windows\VCommManagerHTCSkin.bmp into the bitmap dialog box under Main tab and of course that does not work. Would you be kind enough to tell me where the reference goes? I have copied the HTC skin posted into the Windows directory. Thanks a bunch.
I don't see why that wouldn't work. I put the skin and VCommManager under Program Files, so I have: \Program Files\VCommManager\VCommManagerHTCSkin.bmp in the Bitmap box of the Main tab of the options, but I can't think why it wouldn't work for other absolute paths (starting with \).
Result should look something like this:
Bitmap works fine for me in either Windows or Program Files/Vcomm
Small problem with setup for me- if I tap/hold Bluetooth or WiFi to enter config screen, I can change configs OK, but the OK button and Start Menu are unresponsive, needing a SR to get out of.
I use iLauncher which has its own OK button- maybe that's a conflict?

For BT and WiFi configuration I simply call
\Windows\ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,23,0
and
\Windows\ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,17,0
Can you enter those strings from System "Run" dialog and check?
Do you have same problem when entering those dialogs from Control Panel?
I activated the USER function and assigned /Windows/fexplore.exe to launch on press. It does launch File Explorer, but it leaves the VcommManager interface on top. Pressing the OK button only makes File Explorer to close and leaving me with the X button at the right upper hand corner which is unresponsive. Only a soft reset can get it out from there.
Hello Guys!
So as you know on some roms the Walkman key doesn't work, and some people feel frustrated that the fix for it doesn't work or has no effect. So they are stuck with a dead Walkman key.
Now, I have my own way of getting the Walkman key to work on each Rom if it doesn't work. And now I will share the way to all you LwW Users!
--Preparations & Requirements--
-A LwW Phone :silly:
-Root Explorer (Can be found on the web)
-DreamKeys (can be found on BlackMart Alpha)
Or Here
www.netoclub.com/m/files/view/1356500826
-Have To Be Rooted
That's all!
Note: Screenshots will not be provided but I will try to give enough detail as possible.
1) Open Root Explorer and navigate to /system -> /usr -> /keylayout and open pm8058-keypad.kl with the text editor
2) Find the lines ' #WALKMAN Key
key 200 VENDOR_1
Note: could not say 'Vendor_1' could be anything. This was just a example
3) Rename the 'VENDOR_1' To 'CALL' Make sure it is aligned properly with each row And column.
4) Move Along the lines of 'CALL' and type 'WAKE_DROPPED' (should also be aligned)
5) Save and Exit with the changes and install Dreamkeys, open it and click 'setup cal button'
6) Tick the box 'Launch>> Open Application' and 'select an application' find the preferred music app and save your changes when exiting the app.
7) Reboot! Once rebooted click the Walkman key and a dialog box should popup. Tick the box and choose Dreamkeys and then the music app should open!
Voila! You now have a working Walkman key! Thank me if this guide worked for you and leave your comments

And now it will work
Bonus

I did not understand what does not work. Can you develop the problem?
If the problem is that the screen does not turn on anymore with the buttons, it is that you have badly followed one of the following steps:
4. Search for 703 to get following entry: # input_fw Intelligent Key for Dream key 703 WINK
5. Change it to whatever you want. I simply tried following: # input_fw Intelligent Key for Dream key 703 ASSIST
6. Rename it back to Generic.kl (otherwise you won't be able to press any hardware button after reboot)
6b. And verify that after renaming the Generic.kl file you can still read the conrenu with a text editor
7. Check permissions
thank you

Yes indeed, the screen will remain locked but the order will be executed in the background. There is a possibility to make it work, but you have to buy the Xposed edge pro app for that. After you have to program a condition that I put on video. I made the condition assuming you have a password to disguise the screen. If this is not the case, simply replace the gesture with an unlocking condition.

For those looking to start the camera with the bixby button that the screen is off or on here is a file of wild water to import into Xposed edge pro with restoration.
/Android/data/XEdgePro
View attachment XposedEdgePro.zip
Once importing the action is called Camera Bixby V2 and can be found in "action collection"

i assume it doesnt work with locked screen right?
Is there maybe an option to install this without xposed?
I already used this method and it worked great, but when I install xposed over magisk, it makes my phone boot up long and laggy for a few minutes after boot.
So it feels like xposed is too heavy to have for just one feature like this :/ But on the other hand... it's nice to have a camera quick launch button.

I've been looking how to apply theses steps o a Samsung Galaxy with Lineage OS.
You can follow the steps as described in the post, but you won't find button 703 on the "Generic.kl" file. You have to search for a file named "gpio_keys.kl" on the same folder:
/root/system/usr/keylayout/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also, I've found other commands to try if you wish:
APP_SWITCH - Recent apps button
ASSIST - Google Assistant (with item display on the screen)
CALCULATOR - Open default calculator app
CALENDAR - Open default calendar
CALL - Open default call app
CAMERA - Open camera
CONTACTS - Open default contacts app
EXPLORER - Favorite internet browser
HOME - Homebutton
MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE - Play pause media
MESSAGE - Default messenger
MUSIC - starts your favorite music player
POWER - Power menu
QPANEL_ON_OFF - Notification area
SYSRQ - Take a screenshot
VOICE_ASSIST - Google Assistant
VOLUME_DOWN - Sets volume down
VOLUME_MUTE - Volume media (set default media volume in phone setting)
VOLUME_UP - Sets volume up
All the steps described above have worked for me on a Galaxy S8 and a Galaxy S9+, with Lineage OS 15.1 and Lineage OS 16.
MANY OF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE CAMERA CLICK [ SHUTTER ] SOUND AND THE #SCREENSHOT SOUND , AND IF YOU WANT TO GET RID OF THESE TWO THINGS - HERE IS THE GUIDE -
? OF COURSE YOU NEED YOUR PHONE TO BE ROOTED . BECAUSE YOU'LL HAVE TO MODIFY SOME SYSTEM SOUNDS .
1 - SIMPLY OPEN YOUR FILE MANAGER [ EXPLORER ] - SOLID EXPLORER [ > RECOMMENDED <]
2 - HEAD TO - ROOT > SYSTEM > MEDIA > AUDIO > UI -- >> JUST AFTER CLICKING UI YOU'LL SEE VARIOUS SYSTEM SOUND IN .OGG FORMAT .
3 - SO THE NEXT AND MOST IMPORTANT STEP --->> #RENAME THE - camera_click.ogg to camera_click.ogg.bak [ SIMPLY YOU NEED TO ADD .bak AT THE END OF THE FILE NAME ]
4 - SAVE IT . CLOSE EXPLORER AND REBOOT . SCREENSHOT SOUND WILL BE REMOVED AFTER THIS - FOR SURE ENJOY :fingers-crossed:
- AND IF YOU WANT THOSE SHUTTER SOUND AND SCREENSHOT SOUND BACK JUST REMOVE .bak FROM THAT CAMERA CLICK . OGG FILE AND REBOOT EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE .
- HIT THANKS IF IT HELPS .
It solved the audio playback issue.
Previously if you were listening to music on earphones and took a screenshot or a camera photo, your music output paused, although player continued to play. The only way to resume play was to go to home screen and reconnect earphones.
Now, no need of that pain in the a**.
Also Disable Charging Sounds
Charging sound enabled would also cause the same issue as aforesaid.
Disable it in the Sound settings.:highfive:
Task failed
It says device or resource busy
