Can function of Green Phone button be assigned to another? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi all,
i'm having intermitent issues with my Green Phone button not responding when pressed. As such, i would like to reassign this function to another hardware button such as the default PiE button.
However, i discover that the "Phone" function listed for assignment on the Buttons setting does not accept calls as the Green Phone button does when a call comes in! In fact, i can't accept calls by using any buttons & have to open my case to press the onscreen "answer". Any registry tweaks to rectify this?
Thanks!

Anyone with update?
Cheers,

You'll probably have to tweak the registry - I know may be possible - as I am using phoneplus III and the green button when clicked - starts up Phoneplus and not the internal Phone dialpad.
In the phoneplus setup - it says "Assign Phoneplus to Green/Send Button" and also "Assign Red Button to Close PhonePlus and End Calls"
So if anyone with experience on registry details - should be able to help you out.

I need someone to develop a program for the Kaiser

Basically the program has to do the following:
1- I want the RED (front facing) "call end" button to work like the Treo 750. So pressing it while in the Today screen switches off the phone, pressing it again switches the phone on. Pressing it while in an application takes you to the today screen.
2- After doing that then we don't need the hidden phone on/off button so we can make it into a silent/mute button. So a long press on this button while the phone is either on or off will put the phone in silent mode, also very similar to the Treo's profile slider.
Anyone reading this is up to the challenge?
Anyone here has any other requests? Let's make a list and see who is up to the challenge.

Not up to it, but why'd you want that. Switch phone/flight mode can be assigned to any hw button except call or call end, assign the same button(hold) for mute/unmute and there you are.
Call/end call buttons not being assignable is a hardware limitation, accordig to spb software house (pocket+).

Ok so how can I assign the mute/unmute to a hardware button as I can't find it in the settings--->buttons' drop down menu?
I use spb pocket plus to assign buttons. It has the mute option standard in its list of button tasks. There might be freeware apps that let you do the same, but I don't know them (as I allready had a copy of spb pocketplus from my previous windows mobile device)
Edit: AE Button plus seems to be a freeware app that can do what you want...

And if "hold" is a suitable alternative to mute, you don't have to do anything... pressing in the volume button toggles the call on/off hold. At least on my Tilt.

AE Button worked well. Now I can mute/unmute at a touch of a button. I haven't tried its full potential yet.
Thanks for the great tip.
Still though I wouldn't mind a power feature like the Treo. I do not like that itty bitty recessed power botton on the right...
On a side note I'm going to try and see if there is a reg key on the Treo I can copy to the Kaiser where when you are in PIE and hold the action button it pops up the IE menu. That's nice. Not sure why its only on the Treo. I guess for it's one handed nature... What, I don't get to use my Kaiser with a one handed nature in mind?...

Hmmm, that might be a useful map for AE button... for the side "ok" button, map a double-click to the left softkey, and press/hold to the right one (and single-click stock OK). Between that and the scroll wheel, that should make for some pretty easy one handed operation.
Just tested it.. works well, though the side OK button is a bit stiff/recessed to easily double-click with a thumb. May take some getting used to.
Hey guys,
I think i have found what your looking for. I also needed to toggle my Flight mode by a button because since most ROM versions of WM5 and WM6 Flight mode can`t be switched by tapping the signal meter at the top of the screen.
I installed this app and linked it to Button 6/Recording (Press & Hold) and now it switches Flight Mode On and Off. This is what i needed.
Look here: http://toosten.de/index.php?seite=sw&id=7
Have fun with it
One thing for now i noticed. When activating Flight Mode, it just turns off the Phone Signal and not BT when enabled. I am contacting the author of teh tool to see if some options can be added.

Linking Button 6 to Adjust Brightnes?

As the topic is saying. Does someone know how I can link my Button 6 to adjust the backlight?? (Just like the HTC Home, Off - Low - Medium - High)
I tried google but didn't found anything :S
Help plz
thx.
Someone? Cmon
It is possible to map button 6 for Brightness
I saw your post and I made some teste on my tilt.
I was a big fan of HTC today, but I always loose my contact tab on today's screen when making few changes. Until,I found a alternative today's page. Im using SPB phone suite 4.0.
Your problem can be solve by using SPB phone suite.
If you already disable your PTT and regedited your button 6 you can ignore the step below.
1. just disable your PTT.
2. goto settings-> button -> you will see "add buttons" option.
3. click on "add buttons" to map your button6 for click/hold (two buttons).
4. on the selection you will see
[Backlight down]
[Backlight loop]
[Backlight up]
I choose Backlight down for testing and it did dimm the backlight when I click on my button 6 (PTT button).
I think for you would be "Backlight loop".
I really found Backlight on button6 is quite useless because I do need my voice command for calls and apps. Hold button6 for recording conversation.
I have mine Backlight icon on today's page, so I already have quick access.

Mute Button

Is it possible to program one of the hot keys to be a phone mute/unmute button, or is there a need to create an app?
I'll check out if I can make an app out of it tomorrow unless anyone posts anything different. I made a key lock app for the PTT soft button. I might make it mute your call if you're in a call or lock your phone if you're not. Anyway, lets hope it can be done without an app or with an app and you'll have it by tomorrow evening. Do you have the Tilt, Tytn, or Vario?
Thanks for your prompt response. I have an unlocked TYTN II.
You might not have a PushToTalk button. Got any of the other buttons in mind? You can map it to whatever, and I'll check it out tomorrow. See my first post titled "First Post / KeyLock" for my keylock app and a link on how to map the PTT button. Other buttons should be similarly mapped.
Would like to use the green phone button for this purpose.
I'm interested in this too (I swear I live on concalls for work right now). Either the green button or the ok button on the side of the phone. But I'm curious, will the phone have to be "on" (ie: not sleeping) for this to work? Currently I use the reTOUCHed dialer and just go to Call Status screen and tap the mute / unmute toggle on the screen to do this (which works well since they are bigger buttons than the default dialer on the Tilt). But having it mapped to a hardware button would be very nice.
Was there ever any progress on this? I'd like to assign the PTT button to mute/unmute during a call. I am constantly on conference calls and having to use the touchscreen to do this is ridiculous.

How buttons are numbered in opal?

I want to know the buttons in opal. How they are numbered?
There are only two buttons one green and one red.
I am confused in these buttons and how to configure the buttons?
yes
you can configure this parameters going in the Option menu in the start bar and after in Buttons..you can configure only the green button, i don't know why..so i've set this button for the landscape's rotation..it's very usefull when you use TomTom navigator 7 or other programs
Try

Thanks devilpera once again. If there are no buttons then, why they have mentioned in settings?
Secondly this green button is for phone, how you allocated to screen. The red button is for end.
so you should see only green button to setup..if you see other buttons, is better because you can setting other parameters and so associate other functions what do you know till?
P.S:
For see the effect press long (for 2 seconds) the green button.
Thanks once again devilpera.
My question is how we can assign multiple function to single button? secondly, what are the numbers of buttons? If the green button is no 1, then what is the 2nd button and so on. because it is mentioned in setting button1,button2 and so on.
I know that you can setup only green button...i see only the button 1 in the button's tab...so would you like configure this? because there are 2 main buttons..green (that you can setup), and red (that you can't configure)

Volume down button becomes a menu button

Hello people,
I have a Huawei P9 with Android 6.0
Some time ago I got a message if I want to allocate the volume button to a menu function.
For example: I open Spotify en I press the volume down, the I see a blue border on elements of Spotify, so I can choose those elements.
I find that anoying and I want to turn that off.
Does anyone knows how to do that?
regards,
Ralph

it was a accesibility setting that turns hardware buttons in to specific functions.
I turned it off
