Changing a button - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I have the AT&T Tilt and want to know how to change the calendar button on the main screen to run a new calendar program that I have. The settings button doesn't allow you to change the calendar button???
Thanks in advance!

The calendar is a "soft key". Search for a program that allows changing of soft keys. THere is one floating around in the threads.
EDIT: Just remembered it is in the stickied "Latest Cabs..." thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1539222&postcount=2

Will this work with the T-Mobile Wing running WM6?
Are there any instructions on how to use the program?
Thanks!

HTC Task Manager assigned to PTT button

Hi all. I truly apologize if I'm posting something that's already been covered, but I've searched for a while now on this one. I've done the PTT fix with PTT_Fix_4Tilt.zip (thanks the many posts for showing the way to that one), but I'd like to remap the push and hold feature for the PTT button to bring up the task manager. Has anyone done this, or know how to do it?
Thanks a bunch!
the answer is not from here, just on the wiki

Thanks but doesnt answer my question...
Thanks for replying, but it doesn't answer my question. I was not asking "How to remap the PTT button" - I already have done that (as I said in my post)-, but pointing out that once the PTT button is remappable, ther is no selection under button assignments to choose for launching the task manager. If someone knows, I'd appreciate it.

Yeah, I did this, but it takes a trick. You have to go into the Windows folder and find the taskmanagerapp.exe and make a shortcut for it. Take that shortcut and paste it into the Windows > Start Menu > Programs folder (or any subfolder you wish thereafter) and get out of file explorer. Then you can pick the shortcut to be used for the button assignment. I also did this for the backlight. If you use AE Button +, you can get a lot more hotkey options and really go nuts.
Thanks, I'll try that and look into AE +
Thanks.Finally got working Task Manager shortcut

Right soft key

Hi i have a kaiser on Uk orange. the right soft key says 'Go To ...' ttry as i may i can not change it at all. i have tried FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx, Key swop, Advanced Config and even editing the registry at Hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\today\keys\113 (where they have two extra keys called 'mem1' and 'mem2'.) however whichever method i try the key always resets itself back to 'Go To'
Does anyone have any ideas how i can try and change it at all?
Cheers

Thats strange, I always use advanced config for that and its working like a charm.
if youur on orange chances are youve got that crappy side bar on. go to settingsstart - settings - today - go to the second tab laballed ITEMS then untick the orange item. when you go back to your today screen contacts should be on the right
Yeah that did it cant believe how long it has taken to find that out, however is there any way i can get the sidebar back (not necessarily that one but an alternate one) as its really useful to have that stuff on the screen.

Aha! I follow now, after a cup of coffee and youre explenation its all good
About the HTC Home, no I dont have it in my corner. I have some modified Diamon style tweaked for some of the dialers but havent made a cab of it since there is floating several around in here already. I might whanna have a go skinning one if I come up whit a kewl idea though. I am working on a SPB Theme atm (well not now, vacation atm. But will continue that project once back home), after that I have planned to make a cab/guide whit a nice theme for ultimatelaunch. And I also have promised a icon pack and some animations and on top of that I am eager to get back and work whit Leo on future projects. So it is kinda tight program for hobby timeline, but if you got a certain wish you could request it in my corner and who knows what happends from there and out
cool. it was just to show edblack in the right direction

disable ptt button on tilt

I have a new tilt and I want to disable the ptt button to reasign it. Using PHM RegEdit I located the hklm/services key but there isn't a ptt key. I understand I need to delete it when I find it but of all that is under services, ptt isn't one of them and I've looked through forum after forum and I seem to be the only one with this problem. This is what mine looks like: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Services/
App
BTAGSVC
BthAsPlugin
BTHIDSVC
CERTENROLL
credsvc
DTPT
GPSDaemonService
HtcServices
HTCSVC
Keypad
LASSD
NOTIFY
OBEX
QuickGPS
SNApi
SqmUpload
stk_service

If anyone could help I'd appreciate it I am about to give up on it
While I am glad you tried to look through the forum, my first advice would be to look to the wiki for help. As this is your first post I'll forgive you , but please do check the wiki before posting again.
Check this out.
Hope that helped.
I used a TaskManager registry editor and deleted the PTT in RegEdit - HKLE Machine (I think that's where it is) and then use OEM_ASSIGNPTTBUTTON; it's a CAB but I do not know how to attach files here
You can Google search it on these XDA forums and, using that CAB, you can assign whatever you want to the PTT Button. I assigned the background light to it

Replace phone with contacts on tf3d home screen?

I have tried a search but (I think) because it requires too many search terms I have been unable to dig up what I want. As per the thread title I want to replace the phone shortcut on the bottom left of the touchscreen with a contacts shortcut as I have seen on a screenshot of a cooked rom. Is this available somewhere as a cab or hiding somewhere in advanced config...? TIA
Look here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry
Got it thianks. Did you know where to look or search? Be curious to know what search terms you used if you searched.
Edit... Found it in advanced config. Had looked under tf3d, display etc but no joy. I had previously noticed the keymapping option but didnt realize that it included the soft keys. Lesson learned.

How to remove panels totally

So this is a question.
I don't use them, I don't want them, I don't need them.
How to remove them totally so that I have again control on the button and that I can assign something else to it?
I would like to do this w/o flashing another rom or recooking of some existing one.
So far I was able to do small workaround so that button for them only shows small error message, but doesn't show them.
Tnx for help
You can assign the button to any other .exe, use seach its found here. Best way to get rid of panels s to flash a lite rom.

You can, just create a new button on AEButton Plus, also remember to turn off the SE Illumination notification on the button.

When I press add button in AEB it doesn't detect it, HEX value for it is 0000, other buttons work.
On previous itje versions of rom w/o pannels I could map that key to something else w/o problems, but not on the latest ones with pannels.

Tnx, this was exactly what I was looking for, but AEB still cannot find and recognize key.
I have absolutely no idea what you could do else.
Be sure to:
- Delete the whole registry key HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager
- Delete *both* Startup shortcuts "panelmanager.lnk" and "Paneldefault.exe"
- Soft-reset
- Assign button in AEBPlus (I use version 2.6.5)
- Soft-reset
[edit] I use stock ROM version R2, so maybe thats the problem.
