This may be intended and I may be the problem . I tried settings->personal->buttons and set the end key to various options with no luck. If someone knows how to make this scenario work, that is end key takes you to the home screen and send key takes you to phone, please let me know. I am just used to the other roms..but I will be very happy to learn something new as this is the best rom I have flashed to date
lets see... the tp2 has 4 hardware buttons...send key (should take you to phone pad) but makes perfect sense to directly call the person if in the sms screen...start menu button does just that...the back key (WHICH IS THE KEY THAT TAKES YOU TO HOME SCREEN, which is why its a back key) and last the end key which can operate the quick menu (ability to lock device, flightmode, data, etc.)by a long press end key. that all seems to be standard to me...

The standard function of any cell phone out there, whether it be a flip phone or a PPC, is to have the end key return the user to the home/default screen.
you really cant be comparing oranges to banannas. and i believe "the standard" for a ppc is to have the end key pull up the quick menu. but when we have a back key what is that supposed to do...go back...back to home?

3) End key should return user to the home screen. Obviously, this one is not near the priority that the first 2 are, but I think it would add a lot to the usability of this ROM.


Thanks! Keep up the good woork.
geez ok...if you really want it that badly that is the "end key" and not the back key to take you home. find an app called rhodium keyboard controller and then you can change the functions of the keys yourself. and actually this is an app every tp2 owner should have as it controls all keys and then you can truly customize your phone the way you like

hope that helps the both of you...
