Does anybody know of a tool/software that always maps the scroll wheel to adjusting the sound volume?
ditto...i desperately need that.
when I was using Alex 6.0 Home Rom, the wheel did adjust the volume .I am not sure if that was due to the dialer he used....
subbin
need this too
Kick!
Anyone know such a tool? I browsed through other posts about it, but seems alot of people are looking for such a tool, but nobody knows one...

is any way to remap that scroller on the side to do something more useful like adjust volume or anything? if i want to scroll i can use the little d-pad or the stylus, that thing is just wasting space.
I agree!
Adjusting the volume would be great.

and adding weight... its terrible i tell ya... TERRIBLE...
no but seriously i thought the same exact thing when i bought the phone. now.. i just dont even bother with it.
Volume control would be really handy.
You can adjust the volume with it.
yep, you can adjust the volume with it whilst on a call.
I guess you mean adjust the volume of the ring or the windows sounds - not sure if this is poss or not
i know exactly what you mean....you want it just like the old cingular 8125 was ...instead of a wheel it was more of like a switch that went up or down to adjust volume at any time.
i use that wheel all the time for scrolling. It's WAY faster to navigate than the dpad, ...
Useless is as usless does - scroll wheel and/or tiny OK button

I certainly don't use the scroll wheel as much as I probably should . . . but what about the OK button below the scroll wheel? Talk about useless . . . I don't think I've ever used it except to test it or try to map something useful to it - I truly don't see the point of that button when there's a perfectly good OK button right by the D-pad

Both the wheel and the ok button are there for blackberry device users who use those two input devices as a good 80% of their navigation.
Only problem, blackberry device users try to use the kaiser like a blackberry and find out it sucks in that aspect, and exchange it so they can get their old crackberry back. And PDA users are used to using the other 20 pre-existing ways to navigate the device without using the wheel and OK button.
I feel sorry for those poor wheel/button sometimes.
I like to just play with it sometimes when its in my pocket or i have my phone locked and use it for useless fun.
It's all about choice, isn't it? If you're used to d-pads you probably never go near that wheel, or the little ok button by it. If, like me, you're used to Symbian UIQ phones, which just happen to have a wheel and a "back" (same as ok) button exactly where the Kaiser's are, they're a godsend. Because I'm used to them being the primary controller (no d-pad on a Sony Ericsson P910, or M600i), I use them all the time - the d-pad is just a nice extra. Without them, I'd probably struggle, at least to begin with.
I think HTC have just put a lot of thought into how different people use these devices, and tried to cater for as many as possible.
Try AE Button Plus!

I use the button alot. Maybe because my hands are large I find that using it to ok/close is more comfortable than pressing the one on the face of the device.
For right handed use, anyways. and for picsel browser its mapped to page zooming, so... Its quite handy.
Ok... so me and my gf both have the AT&T Tilt with the orginal HTC rom. And I was using her phone today and found out she can change the ring volume with her scroll wheel from the home screen (just like on the Touch for example). I installed all her programs and they're pretty much the same ones on mine. How can I have that on my Kaiser also?
Thanks
I'd also like to know how to do this! Anyone have any ideas?
htc Home could be the answer
how many taps u have in each phone are they identical?

I was looking for some way to use the jog wheel to strictly adjust the volume while in any menu. This must be possible somehow.. has anyone done this before?
I would also like to know if this is possible.
It was very useful on my last HTC
You need to create a shortcut to the volume control and place it in the programs file. you could then map it to a key such as ptt and then use the jog wheel to adjust...... kind of a work around but it would work.
I've been searching the forum but can only find volume changers for the standard "Volume" function of the phone, where as i want one which controls alot of volumes or just specific phone-based volumes (that made sense?)
Basically voice commander / tomtom 7 etc really need the phone volume to be set on max (plus the application on max), which is fine.. until i send a text message & everyone in the house gets woken up by a PONGPONG!!!!! sound & i have to change my shorts.
So i need to keep swaping the volume up & down, i know this sounds like a silly thing to be bugging me but omg it does!
Is there anyway to set program specific volumes?
or any other way that'll solve my problems, just to shut up the phones OS based sounds so they play at a tolerant volume rather than so loud my ears bleed.
well, you can set the master volume to high, and disable all the sounds and notifications you dont want. OR craft up your own sound using a sound editor and tweak it to have less volume, then map it to whatever notification u desire to have a sound.

Hmm yeah i had thought of that but its alot of work, was kinda hoping someone could just say "Download this, problem solved"
Check out a program called TomTom Started located over at FreewarePPC.com. It will automatically max out your volume when you launch TomTom, and turn if back down when it closes.
For future reference, I found this answer by searching "tomtom set volume to max" using XDA's Google search engine.
Hello xda dev members, I was wondering if some of you could help me with the following.
On my Diamond I recently installed PocketGBA, and I'm having problems finding a good way to setup the d-pad buttons (left, right, up, down). Up and down aren't a problem but left and right are, seeing theres not really any hardware buttons for that around the circle.
I'm guessing this could also be a problem with other apps/games. Does anyone have a suggestion on that buttons to use or on how to set this up?
Thank you
tis a problem, i have given up with the d-pad, only play games with on-screen controls
Thanks for your reply, however I dont exactly want to give up on PocketGBA
Is there anyone out there who found a useful setup for this? To make it playable? Most of the controls can be placed on screen, except for the d-pad. Which I guess would be a pain to use when on screen anyway..
If anyone knows of a way, please let me know. Thanks.
I couldn't increase the in-call volume due to the button broken, and I did not find any solution on the site. The solution or apps only work for ring tone or music play. So, I seach the registry and found this trick........ and hope no one post it yet. My first post and If I repost, i'm sorry.....
I assume you have a custome rom if not, I recommended you a great rom--- deepshinning http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271118)
go to the registry edit tool(download and install it if you don't have), find below entry
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone\Vol
change the Dword to one of the below prefer volume 0--10. Make sure you restart your phone after you change the number.
10--->65535
9----->59418
8----->53301
7----->47185
6----->41068
5----->34952
4----->28835
3----->22718
2----->16602
1----->10485
0----->4369
only downside for this is you have to restart every time you change it. If someone great in programming, hope they can write one.......

there is an easier way also just blug in your headphones and decrease the volume by using the volume down button on them
an even easier option would me to adjust the volume via an application
e.g. Device Volume
