Re: Softkey for Turning Off Screen

you could map it to xda shutdown(shutoff?) but then that would still be a two button solution...

Re: Softkey for Turning Off Screen

darren, do you know where ShutXP installs itself? Do you know the name/path of the EXE?
Medium Hill's ROM uses it, but I'd like to map it to a quick link...
