Just had my Diamond replaced, but canot find out how to change the soft button in "phone" (left soft button on main screen).
When I go to "phone" I get "video call" on the left tab and "menu" on right.The screen displays the standard number pad and previous history above that. I want to change "video call" to "contacts" on the soft left tab,...its how my old Diamond was configured,...don't do video calls and would prefer "contacts" again....any ideas how to change this please?

Can function of Green Phone button be assigned to another?

Hi all,
i'm having intermitent issues with my Green Phone button not responding when pressed. As such, i would like to reassign this function to another hardware button such as the default PiE button.
However, i discover that the "Phone" function listed for assignment on the Buttons setting does not accept calls as the Green Phone button does when a call comes in! In fact, i can't accept calls by using any buttons & have to open my case to press the onscreen "answer". Any registry tweaks to rectify this?
Thanks!
Anyone with update?
Cheers,
You'll probably have to tweak the registry - I know may be possible - as I am using phoneplus III and the green button when clicked - starts up Phoneplus and not the internal Phone dialpad.
In the phoneplus setup - it says "Assign Phoneplus to Green/Send Button" and also "Assign Red Button to Close PhonePlus and End Calls"
So if anyone with experience on registry details - should be able to help you out.

Remove Dial lookup Plugin?

Under the Today Screen Settings, I can uncheck every plugin there, but why can't I remove the dial lookup plugin? Is there a way, or program, to remove this plugin?
From the today screen, hit the menu soft key in the bottom right.
Then go to Preferences.
Then check "Hide Lookup Field"
That what you wanted?
Thanks that's it bro.
If I remove the dial pad plugin, I can't lock the device by pressing the "End Call" button or dial #s without going into the dial pad app. I have the AT&T WM6 and ExtendedRom.
Anybody else having the same problem?
I'm assuming you're removing it via the registry so that the item doesn't load. That will cause problems because it also provides functionality to some of the hardware buttons, as you've discovered. The best you can do is hide the lookup field (Menu-->Preferences-->Hide Lookup Field), or...not too long ago someone created an app (it might have been a mortscript script) that will forcefully hid the entire carrier/dial lookup item, without actually unloading it. Search the 750 forum.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No option to hide lookup field in WM6 leaked version AT&T???? Or am I missing something???

Soft keys

Sory to ask such a dumb question, but I have tried and tried and could not found the solution.
After upgrading to Panosha Light 5 rom, when I press the phone hard button I get a screen to dial, where the left soft key is programmed to "hide keypad" and get to "keypad" again.
I would like to have here instead of "keypad" a shorcut to "contacts".
Where can I change the left soft key?
Open registry editor and go to \HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
Edit "HomeLSKPath" value and type in the EXACT location of the program you want to launch (includung capital letters) e.g "/Program Files/xx/xx/xx.exe"
Save the value.
Then edit "HomeLSKText" and type the title of the softkey eg "Contacts" or some other text that you want to show for your LEFT softkey
Save this value
Close registry editor
Soft reset phone
After soft reset, the LEFT softkey should now show new title and link to the program that was set in "HomeLSKPath"
Harder than I thought, hope it works. Thanks.

sorted - use the cab file
He is asking to change it to Normal Call instead of Video Call, where as the link you posted is to change it to Conacts.
i'm also interested in this, though i own a raphael, i guess the solution will be the same.

how do I change "video call" to "voice-call" in phone screen

Is there a regedit (phm) tweak that changes the left-hand soft key from "video call" to "voice call" or to "contacts" and make a voice call from there. I'm refering to the phone screen NOT the home screen
My rom is 1.93.405.1
The manila entries only refer to home screen changes.
This phone is a replacement, the previous one was fine in this respect.
Call me paranoid, but I can only think that this is a cynical ploy by orange to force people to make expensive video-calls and if I do hit the "video-call" soft key it invariably tells me that 3g is not available and would I like to make a voice-call instead which isn't a huge hassle but one less click would be more desirable.
Also can anyone tell me if the 'screen blackout during call' has been fixed yet and/or if I can tweak it from the registry yet?
any resolution
Guys, any resolution for the post above. I'm kinda in the same boat and looking for a solution.
