Hey all, My screen is broken and new one is on order.
I need to survive the weekend with hardware keys only.
I'm ok except for I can't use the soft keys on the screen.
For example in task manager how can I "end task" on an app?
I just have a few apps I need to manage this week end.
Thanks in advance.

Well, you can press the end key button to minimize apps. I guess you could use MyMobiler to set your Long Press End Key to close apps.

closing apps isn't really the issue.
I need to use the soft key's to operate the software.
Specifically, I need to open lock boxes and have to use the soft keys to press "ok" so that I can update my key.
multiple apps use the soft keys for different functions.
I'm not seeing a way.
