Re: Remapping Hardware Buttons - Options Here
Long time aebutton user. Made heavy use of it with 6700 and 6900. Put it on touch pro but I "over programmed" it and ended up turning it off. Bumped into this thread and rethought my use of it. Here are my recommendations:
1. Forget the home and return buttons (top two). You can add them manually to aebutton and program them but they will first do their default action before the aebutton assigned action.
2. I had never thought about solving the volume button problem using aebutton. I read the original poster (stroth) and realized it should be running it if only to keep the volume buttons from triggering when I pick up the phone or cradle it. EXCELLENT SOLUTION!
3. I'm not using long press on any of my assignments - Even though I assigned the Green phone button to aebutton and didn't assign anything to long press a long press invokes Voice Commander - just what I want it to do.
4. Don't assign something that takes a long time to load or get out of once invoked - that way an accidental press at just the most inconvenient time won't get in your way. (in my case no audible player, camera, pocket player)
