TP2 MR3 update removed Lock button

Hello!

I have Googled for HOURS trying to find a way to restore my Lock button that was on my Home screen with the MR1 release of the VZW Touch Pro2.

After my MR3 update, I now have Phone on the left, which is REALLY stupid, because there is a hardware Phone button right below it!

On the right, where it used to say Lock, it now says Menu.

I have loaded a few tools (Advanced Configuration Tool, etc) but still cannot see how to change it back to my MR1 Lock button. I always manually locked it before putting it into the holster to avoid pocket dialing.

I would like to change the left softkey to Lock, because Phone is redundant. If I cannot do that, then I'll go for the right softkey.

Anybody know how to get it back?

Thank you!

Gregg

Never mind. Too many odd things to stay on this version. I am going to go back to MR1.

You could just use Advanced Config or another app to change your softkeys to run the same command/exe that the MR1 version has assigned to that softkey. If you put MR1 back on use Advanced Config to investigate for possible future use.

you can try this

I havnt personally tried it, But I found it awhile ago cause I had the same issue befor flashing my first 6.5.3 rom. I guess I forgot about it after that since energy has an "actions" key instead of phone.

Idk if this even works on 6.5.x roms.. but never hurts to try

On a side note.. I could have sworn I had seen a cab for this exact thing on a sprint lovers rom thread but I couldnt find it when I looked for it just now...
