Adding (Hold) to the OK button - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I want to add a 'press and hold' function to the OK button. I dug around a little and didn't quite get the answer I wanted. Mostly using 3rd party apps to automate the configuration.
Couldn't I just make a copy of the registry entry in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\
of the 40C4. Add it back in and rename it to 40C8, and alter the string value "Name" to Button4(Hold)?

Never mind...
I am a retard...
I just noticed the button assignment utility had the ability to add a "Button 4(Hold)". No need for reg editing or a 3rd party app.

Well then, if you want one, all you got to do is click on <Add buttons...>. So simple a cave man can do it.

You guys should try AE Button Plus.

Wait a minute.. I have Spb Pocket Plus installed. The "add buttons" might be a feature Pocket Plus added.

That is not cool. I find that offensive.

Why not just install AE Button Plus and let it handle all the buttons?

I use AE Button Plus and it's great but how do you stop the AEB splash screen from popping up every so often?

I used to use AE but it forever to boot up on a reset so i got rid of it.

Doesnt work with a long press on the END button, trying to figure how to do that....
Nadavi..
Ok, I'm confused. The app is called "long press end key", but it has nothing to do with the end key, but rather the right softkey?
Very strang name for a program that dosen't do what the name says. Nice application, but on my Tytn II it dosen't want to use the RED END key, instead it uses the right soft key.
File attached for those who cant Rapidshare.
Can you attach it to the forum, because rapidshare is blocked to me (surf at work )
Thanks.

Does anyone know how to map the HTC end key program to the end key?
UPDATE:
the regedits HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\LongEndFunction enables or disables the longendkey function.
When I set it to 1 it enables the function, however it only does a devicelock. Right now I'm trying to find a regedit that will set the function to open up the ENDKEY app. If we had the registry from the Touch Dual this would be easy to find.
bump!!! any help would be appreciated.

AFAIK you can not.
Nadavi
hmm.. i am able to remove text close to the icon - like new sms, mms, ..., i can move each "new menu" on different position (there is x,y position in registry). then i am sure, there is some solution, how to eliminate some of items in "new menu"

What do you mean mapped to messaging button?
Do you mean the letter icon on the keypad next to the windows key.
How did you do that if so?
Just select HTC Action Screen from the buttons app in settings....
1- its not assigned to right soft key. I have to start it from Programs menu.
2- When opened, if you dont do anything for 3 seconds it exits the application. Im not sure if this is an error or a cool feature.

Ok, thanks.
nevertheless you can easily localize it by going to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen
and modifying the "Name" value under each APP_x subkey.
soft-reset, then it's done.
the only non-working stuff is the message on top of the screen (see screenshot on page 1 of the thread) wich must be contained in the .mui file.
Before I install this tonight, can I have 1 quick confirmation please?
When this software assigns itself to the "right soft key", is this the ACTUAL Messaging Key? Or does it override the default Calendar Softkey?
It doesn't assign to either...
creamhackered said:

... but if you wanted to you can assign it. right?
It would be cool if we could assign it to the actual Messaging button on the d-pad as we already have a tab on the home screen to access our messages.

Great Software for your Kaiser

Guys I am sure some of you have come up with this program already but I thought posting a link to it since its free and works great with the Kaiser when you want to switch/open/close applications without pulling out the stylus.

I configured it to open with the PTT button and then use the wheel to move/select between the options (Active,close,close all)
Hope you find it usefull.

Thanks - I haven't seen this before.
Your link is dead - looks right but goes to the wrong place. I got it with a copy/paste though.
I installed it and it gave the "this program may not display properly because it was designed for an older version of windows" thing. I downloaded the WM6 version and am running it on WM6.
The program did not appear in my Applications. It was not available to be assigned to a button either.
It was sitting there in the Program Files directory though, and I could run it from there.
Looks pretty good. I like the controls and everything - but its a bit disappointing that it doesn't pull the correct icon for every program and you have to do it manually. I don't see myself doing that - so if I'm going to use it I would use it with the default icons.
I think I like it and would probably use it if I can get it to assign to a button.

To be honest its only when its assigned to a button that you will see the benefits specially if its the PTT which is next to the wheel.
Funny you say that. I tried checking my buttons settings and now it doesnt show up on the list of applications however its still assigned to the PTT button so I dont want to mess with it lol in case I screw it up..
Have you tried re-installing it?
I agree with the Icons being a pain although we tend to use the same applications very often so it might not be too much of a hassle.
UPDATE
Its back on the list of my applications available. I have assigned it to button 6 PTT

Well, for starters, you DON'T open a new thread about the same old thing. You reply to the OTHER thread you started and ask for help.
By doing it in this manner you keep the forums clean and easier to use for those members that care to use the search button and for those that care to read before they decide to just go and tear into their machine before researching.
its not the "same old thing"
The other thread was about the actual PTT Program on the phone...This is about my messed up registry and the PTT Button, there is a difference there bud.
No, there is not really a difference.
Your messed up registery is due to what you did in the OTHER thread.... BUD!
Reply in the other thread so that anyone willing to help a BUD out will know what you did to get this error message!
This thread indicates... OOPPS! WHY AM I GETTING THIS ERROR ALL OF A SUDDEN?
Well, if someone knew that you deleted something out of the registery it will help solve the riddle BUD.
Go to the other thread and ask for help.
ooooo ok sorry

what app did you display the icons at the bottom?

looks like a bad shortcut. if you are launching that app from the systray, make sure the path to the shortcut is correct. are you using phm traylaunch? if you are, maybe you made a typo when typing in the full path of the app.

[Q] cannot see my black icons at mediagallery

Hi,
I have a simple but very annoying problem.
My mediagallery backround is black. So I cannot see my black icons. But to change the dock icons from launcher pro I have to go via mediagallery- I do not have the option to use my file explorer- and than I have to play memory (a german parlor game where you have to find pairs of matching cards. But all cards are hidden/ the picture is turned down and you have to remind where the other one lays- I don't know if that game is very common outside europe...)
Either there is a way to change the mediagallery backround or to use my file explorer to choose the images. With desktop visualizer I can choose mediagallery or file explorer...
Any help is appreciated...
I have this issue as well and can only see them by doing a zoom in gesture

Just press the menu button and then hit details, you will see the name of your icon, then press the back button and choose your icon, try to have only the amount of icons you require for your dock and that's all.
I hope this info can help you guys.

I have a motorola xt720- I guess it had two kinds of gallerys right from the start- I am not sure if I know mix things up- but I deleted one. Maybe you are talking fro that one...
Well, i was talking about the hardware button, I think every phone has one Or not?
Well, I will recommend o you to use AndExplorer in that case.
Good luck!
