How to reassign softkey on Home - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi all,
May I know if there is anyway to change the default softkey in the Home tab from "Phone" to something else.
I know in the default windows, we can go to the registry key 112 to change the value. But I just could not find the value on the Touch Home tab softkey.
I have searched the forum but just could not find what I need.
Thanks for any help in advance.

(If you want change the right and left softkeys you see on the bottom of the screen)
Try the one attached here...
Works like a charm on my Touch!
EDIT:
Doesn't work on Diamond....

Remap soft keys in TF3D?

IS there a small piece of software to remap the softkeys on the home screen in TF3D? There are several useful functions that could be placed on the home screen other than the default Phone/Programs. I've tried using the Remap Softkeys for WM5 but obviously that doesn't work with TF3D, and I don't want to disable Touchflow just to get altered keys.

try this
In a registry editor, go to:
HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/
HomeLSKPath, which is the left softkey (Standard = Phonepad)
And
HomeRSKPath, which is the right softkey.
If you change these with the location of the programs you want to link to, and simultaneous change the names:
HomeLSKText = Left softkey text
And
HomeRSKText = Right softkey text.
Thanks very much - worked a treat!
I'm trying to remap my softkeys on the People page. I want FunContact as my primary contact manager launchable from that page... cant seem to get it done with the technique used here... I had to create a new key for it but still nothing after soft reset
any help would be GREAT! Thanks

i second that!!!
default contact is hard to use and scrolling is suck!
Try this link, it has more info about remapping soft keys in Manilla (TF3D) and also (TF2D)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3292483&postcount=2
or the whole thread which has other good info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480475
Hope this works for you!
so this is for the right soft key:
TouchFlo 3D right softkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila
HomeRSKText = Text on softkey
HomeRSKPath = Path to program to run (or blank for default)
what do i put in the open "open" part so i can have my contacts open? and for the text to i just set it as "Contacts"?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
its Windows/AppButtons/Contacts.lnk
I can't get it to work
Okay ... I've read all the post that I could find about changing the softkeys and nothing seems to work. I've changed the registry settings as indicated but still no go. I have the TMO TP2. I only want to change the home page so don't need anything fancy. Been updating the registry settings (HomeLSKText, HomeLSKpath, HomeLSKArguments) and can't get it to actually do anything (the text changes). What I want todo is to jump to the Contacts HTC page (really anything other than the Camera - why TMO did you make it Camera?). Any help would be great. Thanks.

'Rotation' shortcut on HTC Home...

Hi folks,
I was wondering if anyone knows how to adjust the behaviour of the shortcut which is set-up by default on the shortcut page of HTC Home on my T-Mobile Vario III.
Basically, when tap the shortcut, it rotates the screen, however it rotates 90 degrees clockwise - as if it were set for 'Landscape (Left Handed)'. I would really like to be able to rotate the other-way, effectively setting 'Landscape (Right Handed)' using this shortcut. Is there any little tweak that can be performed to achieve this?
Thanks and regards,
Rob.
I'm interest on this feature too.
Thanks

Thanks, I've tried, but if it is possible I would like only to change the function of the existence shortcut because both sw have hundred of function that I don't need and come annoying for me...
If that sw does, that means that could be possible, if not edit the current shortcut, to create another... I hope that someone can help me because I'm not very practised in editing WM...
Thanks
bye
unzip and place anywhere, and create a shortcut in your home, and give a shot, it should be what you are looking for.
Thanks for the prg... but It doesn't work.. I don't know why, but it make an error.... never mind..
I made, with the precious advice of "col Cyber", a mscr file that can be use with MortScript with this code:
Code:
If(Screen("portrait") = True)
Rotate(90)
else
Rotate(0)
EndIf
It works very well!
Bye

i know this may be a simple explanation but i am sure i have seen how to do it before but can't find it or remember, thanks for any help
you can use the advance configuration tool by schaps, it has the key mapping feature, you can change the right and left soft key applications to be opened.

Remap softkeys in ALL tf3d tabs? (Not just Home tab!)

Hi guys,
I wanna remap/change the softkeys in ALL touchflo 3d tabs - contacts tab, messaging tab, internet tab..... But can't find a way to do this.
The software I've found, like SoftKey Manager, can only change the Today screen softkeys. But it must be possible to change softkeys in other tabs as well?
I've been searching the forum and the web without finding any solution.
Please help me out!
Any help?
Any help out there? Please respond!
Well, I just answered my own question now. And the answer is SSMaHo! It lets you remap pretty much ANYTHING! It seems a bit scary to use, but it worked like a charm on my Diamond. Now I have remapped both the "All contacts" link in contacts tab and even the clock link on the today screen directly to aGeye gAlarm!
The SSMaHo thread is found here!

Use Advanced Config for this..
Or just change the following reg. keys:
In this case the left key is: Icontact; the right Key is Commanager
("HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila" ,"HomeLSKPath","\Storage Card\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe")
("HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila","HomeLSKText","iContact")
("HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila" ,"HomeRSKPath","\windows\CommManager.exe")
("HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila","HomeRSKText","CommManager")

Thanxs for your Speedy(quick) reply!!! (Speedy is because I work for Trotec/Trodat, maybe you know them).
It works!, of course, I hear you say
When, as in my case, the phone is factory default then the HomeLSK.. and Home RSK... are stil empty.
I put iGo8 in it and I am verry happy!
Of course, don't forget a soft-reset.
Thanxs again!
PS. The Austrian are always quick when you need help.
For 2 years ago I slipt of the road and before I could get out of my car there allready stopt 2 other cars to help me!
Einfach supergeil! It's my favorite holiday destination!
..you are welcome!

thanks, but you mean it should be:
"HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila" ,"HomeLSKPath","Windows\Camera.exe"
And what about the line?
"HKLM","\Software\HTC\Manila","HomeLSKText","iCon tact"

I meant that was the path to put in the registry. the rest IS the registry, there was no need for me to restate that.
For text you can put whatever you want to display. Like camera, cam, whatever.
