[Q] How can I remap Sony X1's keyboard? - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I knew there were some keyboard remap out there but I want to do these:
1. remap the X panel key to Start key
2. remap the Sym key to Ctrl key
Please let me know if it is possible and how. Thanks!

By the way, I will prefer to know how to modify the register value and do it by myself because the cab/exe I used before crashed my system.

for Q number 1:
Yeah there's is.
But it's according to your ROM actually if what Version of panel Manager is installed. According to my ROM,
HKLM ->Software -> SonyEricsson ->Panel manager -> edit the string of: ApplicationName
For Q number 2:
no idea, I figure the question is asked before. You should try google.
Hope it's helpful

I'm sorry I don't know if you want to do so.
I'm not sure what, but it should be there a short code (special code for WM) but I kinda forget. I've searched google but it's not even fire up.

I searched too. Google works like a ***** sometimes.

Looks like they use "Quickmenu" application to assign the panel button.

No I forgot that I'm using WisBar. In Wisbar there's an option to assign the startup button to an app.

Ctrl key for Treo 750

Sorry for this but while I was looking for something else I come across a post that mentioned a reg key to change the right Shift key to Ctrl key. At the time I was not paying much attention to it but now when I wanted to know more about it I can't seem to find that post. I dont even know if it was posted here or in some other forum.
I know there is one called Ctrl Key Pro but that one uses the Alt key and not the right shift key for the Ctrl task.
Can anyone help?
Its Ctrk Key Pro. Just load it up and press Alt + 0 (zero) to get to the options. From there you can set your CTRL key and ALT key that you want to use instead of the defaults. I took a look and it doesnt seem to indicate left or right shift...only SHIFT. There may be a hex code for the left vs right...possible thats what you were looking for?

Disabling hardkey on keyboard?

Not sure what they're called but I know they have a name. I'm talking about the two hard keys on the keyboard that also activate the softkeys on the screen. When I am sending a SMS I always accidently hit the send hard key. Is there a reg edit to disable the hardkey? I would like to keep the softkey though.
Thanks
Nobody knows?

Remap soft keys?

Hi, does anyone know how to remap soft keys on home screen? Default is Phone and Programs, I want to change one of them to run phoneweaver menu. Any idea how to do that?
Regards,
Lucas
use an regeditor or TC and go to registry,
then goto HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila
there you find this
HomeLSKArguments
HomeLSKPath -> Left Home Key
HomeLSkText
HomeRSKArguments
HomeRSKPath -> Right Home key
HomeRSKText
Path = Program to run
Text= Label on Home Screen
Ghostrider
It works. Thanks for that

HomeLSKPath :
String = \Program Files\Resco Explorer\explorer.exe
HomeLSkText :
String = Resco Explorer
Soft reset or deactivate and reactivate TF3D into your today settings.
Hi,
I got away with changing the softkeys in TF3D but how to change the softkeys when you don't use TF3D (standard softkeys)
Thanks

Hi
Can anybody post the path for displaying contacts? I have a german diamond and I tried following, which does not work: \Windows\poutlook.exe
Which path does work?
Hello Lambert,
HKCU>Software>Micosoft>Today>Keys>112 for the left key
HKCU>Software>Micosoft>Today>Keys>113 for th right key
If the 113 does'nt exist, you can create it.
Beware when you modifies the registry, you do it at your own risk.
Make a backup before each modification.
You can try also "Remap Softkeys", is a freeware that will make it for you.
Put this soft where you want, "My documents" for exemple and execute it.

You welcome !
Why do you want to allocate this keypad lock function to a soft key ?
You can lock your device by pressing and holding the "End Call" button or give it some more option ...

yes I know. but it takes too long to press the "End Call" button.
I mean its not really a problem. But it would be nice to lock the device with one touch

Ok, you can use and configure S2U2 to lock your device when you press the start button or if you put the device face down with GSen.
This app (S2U2) can give you more services that you need, but don't use the S2U2 CallerID cause it could be in conflict with the HTC CallerID.
Search for S2U2 Thread on xda-dev and GSen in this forum.

Hi,
I am trying to remap the right softkey to open the programs part of the start menu. for some reason, whatever I try, I can not get it to map to here. It tends to either error and say that it is digitally unsigned, or it opens explorer, not in the programs folder. Bit odd really. Any suggestions?
Hi, I need to map a WiFi ON/OFF toggle on the Manila Right Soft key on homescreen, cause its taking to much time going to conn.mgr. every time... is it posible ?
thx for any advice
Well I think lots of us were searching for a "videocall" fix...
In the new rom 1.93.707.1, "contacts" soft key was replaced with "video call".
Can this be fixed via registry change and revert the softkey from "videocall" to "contacts"?
How do i set the right key back to what it was?

But your mean the path i also can find it
i want to know how to just click the right key button then
can direct open and close the bluetooth~
anyone can help me??
Maybe you can request a toggle for bluetooth in this app....Press Here
Just a suggestion.
When you say open/close bluetooth I assume you mean switch on/off.
Use softkeymanager to change the right softkey to point at the attached bluetooth toggle.
Found your solution. Use soft key manager to map out your home soft keys in a snap..
We were probably seconds apart when we both posted this.........lol

Atools is multiplatform. And the default home button for the vogue is hold down the camera button until the call and end buttons light up.
Wow...
Ok i am an idiot
Just installed Atool... will try it
And YEs ... Home with camera button work..!

For the preferences in Launcer Pro Plus, click on the button on top of the phone and click on preferences at the pop-up menu.
Here's what I have that works well - under Behavior Settings --> Home Key Action is set to Do Nothing. Home key to default screen is unchecked.
Here's what really works though - go to Launcher-->Spare Parts and under End Button Behavior, select "Home, then sleep". This makes the red button the home button, because with Launcher Pro Plus, the camera button is a "last programs used" button and not a Home button.
