Key mapping question - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

In the advanced config program you can choose to make the d-pad either scroll a page or go between each link on the page. Changing this options makes the d-pad and scroll wheel on the side do the same thing.
Is there a way to make the scroll wheel scroll and entire page and the d-pad to go between each link?

bump, maybe even just a yes or no...

Smartskey - Change MDA Volume slide to Scroll?

How do I change the MDA Volume Slide bar on the left side to function as a scroll while on the Internet using Smartskey?
Please do not tell me to search for the answer as I have done so and cannot find the answers.
Thank you!!
I have been looking through this posting about Smartskey. However, I am still at a loss as to how to get the Volume Slide to work as a Scroll Slide. Maybe I missed the exact instructions on how to do so.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=53784&highlight=smartskey
make sure ur using the newest ver.. and it will scroll
Thanks, finally got it to work.
i have smartskey.52 installed but i still cant get the volume key to scroll in opera browser. is there a newer version?
Thanks so much
How do I restore settings?
Hi,
Tried it but now I want my volume buttons back.
I did the uninstall procedure but they still act as scroll buttons.
How do I revert the device back to it's original settings?
Thanks,
Gilad.

apparently opera scrolling mechanism is non standard : http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=270889&highlight=smartskey+opera#270889
so the volume keys won't make it scroll

I cannot uninstall it either. See my posting on this.

you can also scroll in opera with the keyboard if you add keyboard shortcuts to the input.ini file ... more info here : http://forumfrancophone.info/fadof/viewtopic.php?p=795#795

Is there a way to turn off TouchFLO?

i dont like to use touch flo and would like to know if someone has found a way to disable it ?
thanks, eric
their is touchflo option in settings (under system I think), should allow you to disable it
Go to the the TODAY settings...
From the Today Screen:
1. Go to SETTINGS
2. Select TODAY icon
3. Select ITEMS tab (at the bottom)
4. UNCHECK the "HTC Home" item
5. Click OK and go back to the Today Screen
It should be gone!
TEC
the touchflo (finger panning) option is the one i want to turn off.
i still want to keep the htc home in my today screen.

there is only one checked box about the sound on/off when panning. no where to disable it.
I'd love to turn touchflo off. It seems pretty worthless. It scrolls a page to slowly and in PIE its hard to get it to stop when u get to a spot you want to view.

I had followed above with soft reset also, but still the "touch flo" function running in PIE. This is pretty annoying and useless function if you used to your finger scrolling webpages with PIE plus.
Another one can helps..Thank.
Try changing HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings\EnableScroll to 0 then reboot.
I haven't tried it yet.

That worked perfect neighbor. The touchflo scrolling made it near impossible to drag separator lines. I greatly prefer to tap in the scroll-bar field to page up/down. Thanks again.

Out of curiosity does that change also speed up PIE scrolling the normal way ? - cos it's super laggy and worse than TyTn in the out of the box setup.

Well if i hold my finger in the scroll bar field it will page up/down at 4 pages a second. The reg edit doesn't seem to have changed anything other than the touchflo scrolling
TouchFlO Scrolling and Sound
A Couple questions here:
Is there a way to tweak touchflo scrolling such that it only goes one page length at a time, instead of 4 or 5?
Is there away to turn of the clicking sound as it scrolls?
I'm assuming these are just annoyances of an immature feature that was rushed out the door, but hoping there are fixes available or that HTC is smart enough to fix the problems in future releases.

Have you even looked at the settings in your tilt\Kaiser? you would have found atleast on answer to your questions just by looking around and learning your device!
I guess to each his/her own, but I personally think the TouchFLO interface is a huge improvement in usability. Perhaps it just takes some getting used to. And with TouchFLO, you can still essentially do all the things you could without TouchFLO. E.g. the scroll bars are still there to be used if you like that. And you can still use the stylus for normal operations. There seems to be some confusion about how it works so let me explain the "use cases".
The way TouchFLO works is this:
- use a finger (not your fingernail) to "drag" the screen up/down (or even left/right if the page is wider than the screen). The page should drag with your finger. It's semi-smooth. Not truly smooth, but smooth enough. When you drag, DON'T lift your finger from the screen till you've got it positioned to your desired spot.
OR
- If you use your finger (not your fingernail) to swipe up or down AND LIFT your finger fromthe screen as you do it, then the screen with scroll by itself to the end in that direction or until you tap the screen again to stop it.
OR
- if you use the stylus or your fingernail, then it will NOT scroll like above. It will then behave like a normal stylus control (highlites and selects instead of scrolling).
So, the screen reads a broad touch (like your finger) differently than a narrow/pinpoint touch (like your nail or stylus).
once I got used to it, i found it to be an excellent upgrade in the interface. I don't think it was a "feature that was rushed out the door" at all. in fact that it reads the stylus and your finger differently speaks to the idea that thought went into it.
Use it on a web page to see the different use cases. If you browse a PDF file, it'll drag even with a stylus because you can't "highlight and select" within a PDF file, so it knows that use case is invalid.
Also, You can change the sensitivity by using a reg tweak: HKLM-DRIVERS-TOUCHPANEL-PRESSURE THRESHOLD. Increase/decrease it for more/less sensitivity.

Nice writeup, thanks!
Richard "Still Jonesing for a Tilt"
I wish there was a way to partially disable the Kaiser implementation of touchflo --specifically, the feature where if you drag scroll and your finger ends up at one of the edges of the screen (which is really easy on a 2.8" screen using your thumb) it goes into the continuous scrolling mode. I wish those edge regions of the screen were treated just like any other.

Thanks from me too for this tip. I don't use TouchFLO and I found the touchscreen on my TyTN II a bit annoying with this enabled. Sometimes it wouldn't react to tapping so I had to tap twice. This was maybe one out of every three or four taps.

HTC Home Scrolling

On my hermes using WM6 with the HTC Home Plugin, I am able to use the scroll wheel to scroll into the home are. I can navigate to any of the tabs just by using the scroll wheel. Anyone know how I can make my kaiser do the same thing?
If I think what you mean, that isn't possible. I tried it just now and I can only scroll down and up but not onto the other tabs in the HTC Home
You can do this with navigation control.

Ok that works, but I would prefer the scroll wheel. It's better than nothing though.

Scroll wheel adjustment

Is there a way for the scroll wheel to "scroll" within rows. For instance, I have SPB Mobile Shell and Phone Alarm installed. Both apps have multiple icons in a row. I can scroll to a row, but I can't scroll along a row.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks in advance.
i'll take the silence as a no

You might be right but it's generally considered reasonable to give it at least one if not a couple of days before bumping a thread.
So ironically, here's a free one on me!
Mike
i noticed that when i click programs or settings and use the scroll wheel it scrolls through every item in those areas. it just won't do it on the today screen.
i'll be a guinea pig. does anyone know the registry keys that govern the scroll wheel?
I am also interested in figuring this Horizontal Today Screen Wheel Scrolling...

Isn't this why we have a D-Pad?
How can you expect a 1-dimensional control to work in 2 dimensions?
In Schap's ROM, the scroll wheel does scroll across the HTC Home.

Geez chill cushcalc. I don't think he wants the wheel to be able to scroll up/down and left/right at will. Instead I think he wants it to scroll through each item in each today plug-in, instead of just scrolling from one today plug-in to the next. I.E.- scrolling down goes from the 1st item in htc home for example, to the second, to the third, etc... and then from the last htc home item to the first item in the next today plug-in. I know, I know, there are tons of retards posting tons of uber-retarded questions on this forum, but diar is posing a valid question.

Here's a free bump. Would love to have this feature as well, cuz I'd really to have one-handed use on the PDA. Using the D-pad requires thumb gymnastics which may result in dropping the phone
Even better, if there'd be a way to switch the scroll mode from line-by-line to page-by-page in certain cases, i.e. while browsing a document, or a web page.

Wings Menu Navigation Problem

For Smartphone with WM5 or above you can navigate the Menu by pressing the direction key up and down to move to the next page and eventually cycle back to the first page.
With Wings it always sticks in the same page. I need to press the 'More' menu to move to the next page. Is this the case for you?
Is there a registry setting that can be altered to solve this problem
Thanks.

Yeah, I dont have my set to scrolling, but I set it to the list with smaller icons, and in that mode if I push the right direction it does a page down for me, and left is page up.
And in that thread (think its the right one) for the scrolling text some people have not noticed that they have to create the key for it...

Thanks. Problem solved.
Scrolling works for icon view with up/down
For list view, scrolling works with left/right key instead of up/down.
