Hi all, searched around and couldn't find the answer to my question. I just installed a Molski.Biz ROM, and I'm pretty sure it remapped the voice dial button to Task Manager. I want to change the Camera button to Task Manager so that I can keep the Voice Dial button as MS Voice Command.
How can I map the Task Manager to the Camera Button?
hey halfsoul did all the custom stuff install for you?
um go into Settings and Buttons
Not an option
It seems like everything installed. In the buttons menu, Task Manager isn't an option. "Task" is the closest thing, but that's not the right one.
Do I need to re-execute a ExtROM cab? Is there a registry entry I can change behind-the-scenes?

As a former Tytn/8525 user, I enjoyed the one button access to the Comm Manager. I used it all the time to limit my power costly modes.
So I installed Spb's Pocket Plus for the Button assignment capabilities. But the default Comm Manager page does not show up as an application when I go to assign the buttons. Several of the 6 Button .cabs on the Kaiser .cab page DO show up.
So my problem is, I wan't to use duttythroy's 10 button black 3g comm manager .cab, which by far is the best and the WiFi switch works, but it also does not show up as an assignable application for a button.
What can be done to accomplish this?
Thanks for any suggestions!

by default, the AT&T rom hid the comm manager from the start menu. You need to add the application's shortcut to the startmenu before you can assign the button. Go into the windows directory and find commmanager.exe and make a shortcut (on your start menu/programs) to this app. Then you can map the app to a button.
if you are using a non-default comm manager, then exe is probably named commmanagerlink.exe
Hi,
I am trying to find a way of assigning the hardware key to launch the backlight application. Preferably the button the the top left of the device which is currently used for the voice speed dial.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I changed mine from Voice Dial to Comm Manager by going to the button icon in settings and there is a list there, Im not sure what programs are on there but its a start.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice, unfortunately the backlight option is not on this menu. I wonder if it is possible to add it via registry entry or some other means.

hmm i kno there is some kind of "display off" program u can find, then u can go under the buttons settings and select that program to be under a certain button... see if u can find it, ill try and find a link for it and send it to ya.
Hi there!
Anyone know of a way to map the panels button to the start menu, without the use of software like AE Button? Perhaps a registry change? Because AE Button comes also with a task manager and stuff which I don't want. And the panels button becomes available when using a "lite" ROM from one of the cooks.
Thanks!
Its easy to map it to any .exe, I have it mapped to Launch Manager http://www.fantasticbytes.com/downloads/launchmanager.
Instructions can be found from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448067&highlight=remap+panel+button.
Start menu can be a problem without programs.
Thanks for the answer!
I can't seem to assign it to an Executable though.
With a registry editor I went to HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager\
added a string value with name: Launcher, and string: \..\Program Files\WkTASK\WkTaskCmd.exe
It doens't seem to work (yes, I've soft resetted the device).
Any idea? Thanks!
It works 100%. You made some mistake.
It's hard to hit that little Task Manager icon in the top right corner without using the stylus. It's definitely not finger friendly. I wish there was a way to make the Task Manager more accessible. I like being able to kill anything that is running.
That would depent on the ROM you are running.
Quickmenu is the answer to your need.
I am running a the stock AT&T Rom minus bloat
Thanks for the reply
Or rather than installing more software you could map Taskmanager to a hardware button, Start\Settings\buttons.
Oh and in the start menu is easy Start\Settings\Menu
As i imagine your asking for ease of use.
Another cool bit of software is AEButton do a google as you can map up to 4 things for every hardware button makes the phone so user friendly
Task Manager isn't an option
I tried that first...it doesn't show up as an option in the start menu or today screen. Stock AT&T Rom

Sorry to do what i said you will need to use this taskmanager http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2481033&postcount=81 it's just an exe place a where you want and make shortcut to Windows\startmenu
What I use is HButton by Ondrej Pavlicek, together with a newer version of Task Manager (usually included in the M2D cabs). If you let HButton handle the "ok" button presses, it will show the Task Manager popup at the upper right corner when you are in the Today screen. The newer Task Manager allows scrolling through the tasks, and if you press the right button in the directional pad, it will close the selected task. Very convenient for me.
Hello everyone
1. I am interested in keys remapping and changing some defaults in the 826x but don't know to grab it. Always what I wanted was to wipe out Windows Default Dialer/Phone software and exchange it to the Resco Contact Manager. I don't mean to change "Green Phone Button" but to make dialer (keypad) from this software as default in whole "system". After I had remapped (using AEB Plus) Green key to for example to "Favorites" from Resco CM software, I overridden default (important) action of this key as well - accepting connections. My key was calling Favorites from Resco CM but wasn't accepting connections. Is there any possibility to merge this two interactions into one button? Would be greater to set green button default to "Keypad" panel from this Resco CM.
2. After I have remapped some keys using AEB Plus I've lost this sweet Resco Task Manager (is this correct name?) from 826x ROM. I've tried to restore it by mapping it to the XPanel button, but don't know what to set exactly under this button - which executable? I've tried to use app called uTask Configurator but don't know how to use it correctly
3. What may be the reason of fact that I am not able to Map the keys in mine PocketMusic player? In stock rom I mapped my keys for usage in music player, but now when I try to do it - app (PocketMusic) does not recognizes pressed keys? No info about pressed key is showed.
4. How to set "turning screen off during call" or "blocking phone during call" in the quickest way? I need to set something like that, but don't want to use third party apps like S2U2? Maybe there is any REGISTRY method?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
