Can I change the PTT button to do Voice Speed Dial instead? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I have absolutely no use for the PTT button. But the Voice Speed Dial button on the 8125 was great for me.
Is there anyway i can change the PTT button to pull up the Voice Speed dial instead?

Absolutely!
There are at least three ways I know of on how to find out how to remap the PTT button on your tilt.
Method 1: Search this forum. Usually a good start would be to think about the question you are asking about...in this case "PTT button"...click on search and enter "PTT button" and the magic of a search engine will show you all the other times other people have been pondering the same question as you are.
Method 2: Easier than searching the forum is to simply go to the xda-wiki (see that along the top bar of the forum?) and read the kaiser/tilt topic on remapping your PTT button.
Both Methods 1 & 2 are stickied in this forum at the topic on all CAPS " SEARCH XDA-Developers using GOOGLE & READ THE KAISER WIKI!!! "
Method 3: Is the option used by a lot of people these days, which is to post yet again on this topic. Doing so will allow you to get someone else to do the 30 seconds of work for you to go to the xda-wiki, and copy and paste the link to the answer to your question.

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

Remapping PTT to WiFi

Hey Guyz....
First off, 'THIS IS THE BEST SITE EVER' for die-hard WM fans.
This is my first query on this site since i got no answers after a day of search.
I have an ATT TILT and I recently made the PTT key remappable.
I want to activate WiFi directly by pressing the key but dnt knw how to add this option in the drop down menu while configuring the key in 'start>settings>buttons'.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Install this small program
vijay makes a small program that when used with command line parameters can toggle WiFi. http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJVolubilis
Install this program then you'll have to make your own shortcut with the appropriate command line. You can then add the link to the registry entry for the mapped button.
Thanks 4 the reply..the software says its compatible with WM5 only....I have a WM6...my mistake, shud have mentioned it earlier..!!
Any other suggestions?
THANKS
UPDATE: Found an easier app at http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php. This app has a GUI (unlike Vijay's app) which is more convenient. There are loads of other options too like 'long press config' n stuff!!

PTT To OK

Hello. I apologize for making another thread like this.
I've searched through Google as well as XDA Dev, but I can't find how to remap the PTT_Long button to use for an "Ok"
I know how to remap the PTT short and long buttons to things like camera, voice command, or any other program/software, but I'm having trouble mapping it to be an "OK" button.
The reason I want this is that I got this program called LoudTalks (walkie talkie like program) that uses the center circular button of the fuze to initiate the microphone. I want to use the PTT to start the microphone, because its more convenient.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Also, I tried going to Settings>Personal>Buttons and doing it from there but when I'm in the area where you're suppose to press the hardware button you want to remap, it doesn't recognize it. I've tried soft-resetting a few times.
I'm using the Elite RC3 Rom.
Thanks

I've all ready seen that. THat just remaps it to "Close" not "Ok"
Just get AEButton Plus and create a new button then you can map it either to programs or functions like OK with maybe a map for a long press to close. Grab it on my site or google it.

Tilt PTT Button Remap

Yes, I managed to get the PTT button removed. Got me two new buttons now, but the ones I want to use I cant configure.
I am trying to get the Voice Speed Dial assigned to button 6, but for some reason the program is not listed in my Assign a program menu?
Simple fix for this, I have spent four hours looking through the forums, google and every other page on the net that has anything to do with this stupid phone.
If you know a fix for it please post it, don't post a search here or go here link...
from the windows mobile 101 handbook...
generally, any program that has a shortcut in your Start->Programs listing will be listed in the available programs to map to buttons.
simple answer is to first make sure the Voice Speel Dial is available from Start->Programs. if the link is missing there, make a shortcut to Voice Speed Dial manually and drop it in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. then, assuming you are using Settings->Personal->Buttons to manage your button mappings, it should show up so that you can map it to a button.
these are basics really, so i will still suggest more reading and searching even if you have specifically asked otherwise.
good luck!
