HTC Touch Pro 2 TAB buton

I am new to the forums here and was hoping that some here could help me out. I have the Sprint Touch Pro 2 and realized there is no hard key for the TAB button. I use that key a lot in Word (paragraph indent). Is ther a CAB out already that Ihave missed in my search or can someone send me a CAB that can make "FN+Q" into TAB, please??

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 TAB buton

This is crossover help from a TP user...there's a keyboard configurator app over at xda-developers that allows you to modify the keyboard driver and I believe I've seen that there is a Rhodium version now. I wonder if you could use that to modify one of the FN+letter keys to emulate the tab key? I've actually been interested in this very possibility to get a control key, which was also removed from the TP2 keyboard (for ctrl-c).

If I could afford a TP2 I'd be trying it right now, but the economy has other plans for me at the moment.

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 TAB buton

Yeah, it must have been some kind of oversight. I've checked the one on XDA-Devolpers (a couple of them) during my research for this fix but the problem is either they didn't work or I am just not tech savy enough for this kind of thing ;P

I was hoping for a direct fix for this sitch in a CAB that would install itself. Lol
