"esc" key - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Does anyone know how to emulate the "esc" key on a wizard?
I have a DOS based legacy app at work, and while I have been able to get logmein to work fine on my 8125 to control everything else I need to be able to use this one program and I cannot unless I can use "esc" to go backwards. Any ideas?

maybe u can assign a hard button to the esc with this one?

Here's the solution...
PQzII -- http://nicque.com/pqz/PQzII.htm
Under settings go to the "Code" tab, allows you to set IN code whatever you want and set OUT code to be ESC.
I'm a big fan of this FREEWARE! Also allows setting a key for CTL and/or ALT, better caps/num lock indicator (off, on, lock), not to mention key launch of apps, settings, phone numbers, task bar, symbol window ...
NOTE: be sure to install the Wizard-specific version! Read the install directions!

if you're using pocket quake, just use "recorder" key (press it long)

vladimyr, pqzii is not pocket quake...if that is what u meant...

Wow! Thanks for the tip. that is a great program. I just started playing with it but it seems that it could replace Smartskey. Of course, even though there is a GUI the documentation is a little sketchy so it took me a little trial and error but I got it to do what I needed...
I would highly recommend this to anyone that likes customizing their phone.
I have two questions that I could not seem to resolve on their web site
1. Where do you find the .bmp files it looks for to use as an icon? I am getting a white square which works okay since I will only use it now and again.
2. In the program they reference a CTRL and ALT keys that I am pretty sure are hard keys on the keyboard since you can assign them but I am not sure which actual keys they are. Any ideas?

soft key applet
you can use a program called soft key applet, which is downloadable from the xda ftp site, not sure if you can simply turn these off, but you can assign different programs to them.
I use dcinobar, you can just click the .exe to enable / disable it. I have mine placed in the \windows\startup folder works perfectly.

nice post, def. gonna try this one out when I get the chance as I never use the on screen soft keys anyway,(plus I know I ain't the only one who can't stand the fact that the home screen plugin from HTC doesn't allow one to scroll down the today screen in landscape mode)and a little extra room is welcomed with open arms. I'm guessing you can still use the soft keys if you want to by pressing the hw buttons on the device right????
cheers
Heres the trick..
It LOOKS a lot better. It makes more of your image available to use.
But wither or not you use the buttons doesnt even matter, because when at the today screen, even if you press those buttons they still work. I use mine all the time, but I dont like the clutter, but it doesnt matter. I just remember what buttons do what, since they still work.
Im adding this to my newbie thread
Thanks!!
This gives the homescreen just a bit more room.
Another nice mod is to remove the iconset for the unlock/com man/etc located above this bar. I used the regedit method using total commander- simply delete the following from your registry:
\\HKLM\INIT\LAUNCH92
This is the key that launches the tray application at boot (To re-enable create the registry key above with the value TrayAp.exe)
Have fun!

Actually I found the tray icons very useful and actually added my own tray from batterstatus. One touch activation of any of the radio's and various programs makes using the tray very efficient. Plus you can access the tray without even touching the screen so its a win-win in my eyes.
Regarding Neptunes' first post at the top,
"(plus I know I ain't the only one who can't stand the fact that the home screen plugin from HTC doesn't allow one to scroll down the today screen in landscape mode)"
I have spent days looking for a fix/patch for this. Is not having the scroll feature in landscape mode the final answer on this one?
Thanks guys!

Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Home and change the type to 4.
Poweroff and poweron.
Thanks, exactly what i need.

Where can I get a cab for the "end key long press" program?

I have searched the forums long and wide for it and I cannot find it. Is it simly cooked into roms as an oem package or is there an actual cab we can install for those that are using prebuilt roms?
look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356192
read the first post. I think you will have to create the Long_End.lnk and assigned it to EndKey.exe
this may also be of interest

I actually think he wants "long press power key". That is the one that is cooked into numerous roms. If you search for long press end key, or HTC end key, you will find plenty of threads. Long press power key is a different story.
Edit: Ok I think I was wrong. Long press power key is by Schaps. He wants the long press end key mapped to the red end call button. If you install it normally, which is what you get 10000 threads on if you search, it installs it to the right soft key.

All you have to do for any of the long or short keys is change the .lnk shorcut name to Long_Power.lnk or Short_Power.lnk or Long_Send.lnk or Short_Send.lnk or Long_End.lnk or Short_End.lnk, etc. etc. etc.
If you rename or create a shortcut name as above & point it to the program you want to run & then place it in the \Windows directory it will work.
You don't need a cab, or any configuration tool.
I know something much better:
AE Button Plus http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php, you can give any button a long press function of even a double/triple click function.
You can use it for free.
I use the Internet buttons double click for toggling bluetooth, the Email buttons double click for toggling WiFi, the left softkeys press+hold for devicelock and the enter keys press+hold for AltTab.
You know you can do all of that without adding a few more mb's to your system & another startup app. AE Button works don't get me wrong, but it's not for me since I can accomplish everything it does already from the registry. (The keyboard driver contains all kinds of neat shortcuts you can use, you only have to disassemble it to see). It's great for a novice though.
There is another easy way to configure this. (No need to install HTC End Key)
Install Schaps Advanced Config.
Then go to Menu, Key Mapping and choose what you want for Long Press Send Key, End Key and Power Key.

Wow - I've been using Advanced Config for ages (consider it essential) but had no idea it handled key mapping. Good to know.
I just tried it on my problem though and it's a no-go. My problem is that HTC End Key is cooked into the ROM I'm using and neither remapping through Advanced Config nor manually adding a shortcut (in this case ArkSwitch.lnk renamed as Long_End.lnk) works - the stupid HTC End Key programme just pops its ugly head up instead offering me a handful of useless options I can't change.
Any ideas? I'm using a 6.5.x ROM so HTC Task Manager doesn't work and ArkSwitch doesn't always open when clicking the title bar, due to the notification drop down, and I need quick access to a task manager.
Btw I use my phone's GPS for work a lot (in landscape mode) so Long_Send is already mapped to Rotate Screen.
Can anybody help?

Sky remote record by mobile

Anyone got this working on the Diamond. Working fine on my old SE W850 - dont know where to start with the Diamond
I'd like this too.
Can only think about doing it via web browser
I use the k800 version and remaP my left and right hardkeys to act as softkeys but the text is tiny!
How do you download the K800 version of Sky Remote?
Sky doesn't let you chose a particular phone during online setup.
Sky By Mobile Java App
Here's the Java app download.
http://mobile.sky.com/SBM/SonyE_novid/SkyMobile_SonyWithoutTv.jar
All I got to do now is try to remap hardkeys!
Got AE Button Plus, but a bit scared of all it can do.
Can Ericsson68 tell us how he remapped hard keys?
Is running TF3D, cos that seems to overwrite hard key functions when run?
Just got round to trying this.
How do i run the file as .jar files are not assosiated with any apprication?
Put .jar file on Diamond first using activesync.
Then run Jblend first and install and run java apps or .jar files from there.
I still can't get it to logon yet.

Have you looked at
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=35
I know that people have had problems. You might find the answer there.
Hi
I used AE button and then remapped the left and right ring keys to long presses = left and right soft keys. I never do long presses on the left and right ring keys so this made sense to me.
Prepare to need a magnifying glass when you do get logged in though. And from experience put your password in before the user name. For some reason doing it the other way around often crashes it.
Ok! Got application working - am able to enter password and user name.
Have tried remaping keys, but dont understand how or why. Could you go through it step by step.
Have a copy of AE Button Plus installed.
Thanks
Another jar file
This one allows the soft keys to work but doesn't actually manage to login for me.
I attach the file for you to try.
Solution!
trice1921 and colthekid worked this solution out at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=507152 for the Touch HD / Blackstone. It works for the Diamond as well. I'll copy the solution here and hope the mods don't mind.
The java file is here http://mobile.sky.com/SBM/SonyE_novid/SkyMobile_SonyWithoutTv.jar
The HasKeyboard reg key is important and you will need to disable the volume control in S2U2 if you use it. Enjoy!
Firstly, follow the instructions in the original article posted by gears ie. register on the web for sky mobile and download and install the java software and SkyMobile_SonyWithoutTv.jar file.
Also register for "Remote Record" via your Sky+ box (instructions on the Sky.com website)
Next, as the HD does not have a hardware keyboard, we need to "spoof" the OS into thinking the HD does have one. This is done in one key in the
registry (which I found completely by accident while looking for a different one!).
Goto... "HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Shell" and change the value of "HasKeyboard" to 1
Soft Reset the phone.
We will then need to map some of the buttons to give us up/down/left/right, Enter and Left/Right Soft keys. As NickMilner suggests above, i use "AE Button Plus" and my mapping instructions assume that's what you will use. (the program does cost but i don't know of any other one that provides double, triple and long press options for each key and appears to work well enough in free/trial mode anyway!)
Map the following in AE Button Plus
Volume Up button: Single press - Volume Up
Double press - Press Up Arrow
Triple press - Press Left Arrow
Long press - Press Left Soft Key
Volume Down Button: Single press - Volume Down
Double press - Press Down Arrow
Triple press - Press Right Arrow
Long press - Press Right Soft Key
Green Phone Button: Single Press - Press Green Button
Double Press - Press Enter
I would have liked to use the Red Phone button, but whatever selection i made, the red button always acted as an "Exit" button in the java app, so I went with the above. It's a bit complicated I know with all those double and triple presses, but IT WORKS and i've soon got used to it. I'm sure you could chose your own combination of presses, but the above ones work.
Well, there you go, see if it works for you (I Bl**dy hope so...this has taken me ages to write!!)

[APP+DRV] [Keys remapper] Raphael Keyboard Controller GSM/CDMA v1.4

This is what many touch pro/fuze owners want to have - ability to get full control over their keyboards.
This is for Raphael only! Do not try to install this on other devices!
Do not ask me to make a version for other device since my remappers are driver dependent and this can be very and very complicated without real device (if possible at all).
So, what is it ? It's a modified keyboard driver with configurator application for keys setup. Any key (yeah, i mean ANY, including Home and Back keys) can be reassigned to perform desired actions. Keys on a QWERTY keyboard are not an exception, they might be remapped too.
If any key has an action configured and is defined to be processed by my driver extension, it wouldn't go into the system. That is to say no one program even like AEButton will see key events processed by my driver.
Driver extension also can vibrate on any key press.
Modified drivers were tested on many ROMs based on different OEMs, so they would work in most cases.
Thanks dcd1182 for CDMA version testing.
Features:
Different event types supported: single, double and triple clicks, long presses
Two modes of key mapping: three actions per key or direct key mapping
Key repeats in direct key mapping mode
Actions sequence repeats in actions mode
Key combinations using FN modifier
Default key behaviour action - you won't loose key's default behaviour if you just want to add double click or long press to it
Different key behaviour depending on foreground process/window class/window text
Multiple rules for each key to provide different behaviour for each application you want
Multiple actions for each event
Different predefined actions:
Run program
Key press emulation
Send symbol/text to active window
Close active window
Switch to window by class/text
Terminate data connection
Wi-Fi toggle
BT toggle
Screen rotation
Power management (screen power toggle, suspend, reset)
Exceptions lists which are used to deny key remapping depending on foreground process/window class/window text
Configurable long press and double click duration
Configuration import/export in configurator
Changelog is located here.
Configurator UI localization support information is located here.
Requirements:
- .NET CF 2.0 (for configurator app)
- WM 6.1/6.5 compatible
Usage:
- Install SdkCerts.cab
- Install RaphKbdControl_XXX.cab
- Soft reset
- Check if keyboard works by pressing hardware buttons and seeing if they do their work, if not - uninstall cab, this wouldn't work on your current ROM
- If it works - go to the control panel and find "Keyboard Config" on a System page
How to define key processing:
- Run configurator (Control Panel -> System -> Keyboard Config)
- Press Menu -> Add key
- When dialog asking you to press key appears press and release desired key
- Set up needed options in key setup dialog and press OK (left softkey)
- In configurator's main window press left softkey "Update settings" to let new configuration take place (reboot is not needed, coz new settings will work immediately after saving)
What to do if keyboard doesn't work after uninstallation of this software:
- in any way stop device "KBD1:"
- for example, you can use Dotfred's TaskManager - navigate to Devices tab and find the KBD1: string, then press Stop
- delete files \Windows\keypad.dll and \Windows\kbdcntrl.dll
- soft reset
How to add new button to Buttons applet and get it working:
- add or copy existing key [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40CX], where X is 1-6
- under this key add next values:
* Name - display name of the button in list (doesn't matter what you write here, it's only for you)
* Icon - path to icon for this button
- goto configurator and define an 'emulate key press' action for any button you want and set these values here: key code - 'App X' and check 'Win' checkbox - only in this case button will work
- save settings and enjoy newly created button
TODO:
- optimization
- Shift+?? key combinations support (if there would be requests on this)
- more actions
- other useful things
- your suggestions ?
Backup before installing of modified driver is strongly recommended.
Be careful when downloading the cab, make sure you choose the correct version suitable for your device.
Also, here is small collection of AltTab programs attached.
You can use any of them assigned as 'run program' action to desired key to switch between running programs.
well im going to try this right now, thanks
tested and works great.
side note: under the todo list adding different key behaviours depending on active window would be great
thanks
Push!
What a great app ! Couold you try to add something like multi-pressd ?
Glad to see something like this come along.
Curious, any plans to integrate with the Buttons applet found in Settings?
Cheers,
Again, excellent work!

No. Although buttons applet and my extension do similar work, they work in different ways, so it's not possible to integrate them at this moment.
It is very cool program.
But it is not work with russian keyboard on official Rom
Or it's my mistake?
after uninstall app and soft reset do not work hardware keyboard,
and keys: on/off device (on the top side) and loudness (on left side)
What can I do?
Cool tool!!! If you implement to configure different behaviour for different programs that would be really nice!
Wow; this really does sound like the tool I was hoping for. (The hardware keyboard and the home/back etc keys? Perfect!)
Sadly, seems like the rom I am using (MightyROM5, for CDMA and Sprint) wasn't one of them... oh, well. If anyone else with CDMA has a ROM and tries this successfully, though, I'd love to know so I can try a different one.
For me, the hardware keys worked again after an uninstall and soft reset. (To turn the screen back on after it fell asleep while I was doing this, I had to hold the power key down as if I was going to force it to turn off, only longer than normal -- just a FYI if someone else has the same issue.)

looking for a simple button reconfigurator

Hello,
i'm looking for a replacement for AEBplus
I only need a few simple things:
left and right button - should rotate my screen, like it does when i open the keypad
ok button - task manager (or today screen from where i could start the taskmanager)
ok button (long press) - start an application
end call (long press) - lock the device (the you need to enter your password kind of lock)
What program other that AEB can do that and wont use as much CPU resources as AEB does?
you can just go to settings>buttons and assign either keft or right soft key to screen rotate, easiest way IMO
No i cant..there is only the left and right softkey button. Nothing else..and i could not setup a long press this way.

I use AEButon Plus on my X1a and I am thrilled with it. It doesn't have much (if any) negative effect on performance on mine.
Have you tried it on the X1?
Also for End Key there is a program called "Long Press End Key" I think. It is nice, and cooked into a lot of ROMs.

I guess i could use mortscript for rotation, long press is obviously possible.
But what do i use as fast taskmanager? Can i start the built in taskmanager as application? And what can i use to password lock my device?
Edit: seems i loose the TAB key with X1ButtonMapper and the EndCall button isnt inclueded...thats bad
Is there a way to change some of the keys directly in the registry?

advanced config - menu (button) - more settings - key mappings
Mobile Magic doenst support the buttons i need. No longpress for End and no support for the OK button at all..that was the first program i tried.
To bad the options for the End key are grey in Advanced Conifg.
X1BC should allow for a lot more options than mx X1ButtonMapper. I think there is also a second application from the same author called X1BH or something. Check that out.
X1ButtonMapper is pretty lightweight actually. The most overhead involved will be by calling the script functionality but that is done asynchronous, meaning that X1ButtonMapper doesn't wait for the called application or script to finish - it just launches it.
I didn't remap the red and green phone buttons because they can't be easily remapped and I think they are central buttons which should keep their original functionality. I think remapping them will cause more bugs than you will gain functionality. With X1ButtonMapper you already gain enough options for the remaining keys (each with short and long press) which should be enough for most applications. You can also reassign the missing FN+key combos on the keyboard.
I did use the Tab key as Ctrl substitude because I think Tab is not important for Windows Mobile. It is substituted in most dialogs with the right/left keys so use these. You can get the original Tab function when pressing FN+Tab for the few situations where you really need it.
I am using X1ButtonMapper for a long time now and havn't had any stability issues - maybe that's the trade off for having less features.
X1Button manager somehow didnt react to my OK key. I allready have a standalone taskmanager mortscript could run but Ok didnt do anythink. Longpress of the softkeys to rotate the screen worked nicely though.
Longpress delay is a little longer than im used to but that not a big problem.
The longpress of the End key has allready a keylock function as standard setting (wich i find totally stupid because i turn the device of with the switch on top). There must be a registry setting that i could alter so it would run the password lock instead.
I will check into X1BC...
X1BC works thank you...and i like it much more than X1BM because i can setup everything to my likings, longpress timing, vibration on/off and wether i want a Control key replacement.
I could even use the panel key to lock my device if reprogramming of the end key button is not possible.
Does anyone know wich program i have to run to password lock my device? Maybe its possbile with mortscript..i should check that...
