Default Help: Want to remap hard button

Hi all,

Anyone can help to remap the hard button??

I want to change the Home key to Alt-tab, and the Back key change to OK/Close (1 press for ok and long press for real close the application). I have tried AE button plus, but not function very well.

Attached is the Alt-tab s/w i have used.

Don't know why HTC put a Home and Back key in WM pro device

Thank you very much,

Awww.. now how am I gonna survive on the diamond without Hbutton?!

There's another software called SmartSkeys (or something oike that) Not sure of it'll work.

Anyone got any suggestions on which software to use to map diamond buttons to many functionalities?

To my understanding from testing AEButton on the Diamond, I have realized that:

The HOME key cannot be remapped.

The Back key is essentially a "WIN" key. You can create a new button and remap the Back key. HOWEVER, the shortcuts DOES NOT WORK when you are at today screen. So here is what I do, I remapped the Back key single click to "Escape". double click to close program, long click to close all programs.

Thats the only logical thing i can think about using the back button due to the limitations.

Any ideas?

Escape = ok/close ?

With AEB Plus I managed to map "action long" to "task manager", but the setting doesn't seem to survive a soft reset.

Problem with TouchFLO 3D.
Disable TouchFLO 3D, you might map home/ok button by mappingware.
Setting -> Personal -> Today -> Items

Use SortInchKey, if you enable TouchFLO, you might map VolUp/VolDown/Ok(exclude Today screen) buttons.
