Is there a way to disable the front buttons?
 

As some of you may know I had to get another 6700, this one says Quest on the front.

Anyway, apparently the thumb stick is extremely sinsitive. All I have to do is barely move the PPC and it will start selecting stuff. And when I press the Windows key it takes me to the align screen (God I hate that thing).

Anyway I can get around this?

Not with software. But, cuting it off works great :)

Damn LOL, I didnt want to open my new one up :(

Well if I get that far Im going to try the thumb stick board out of the Verizon 6700 and see how that works :)

Out of the ordinary question here, would there be any issue using your Apache ROM on this PPC?

Re: Is there a way to disable the front buttons?
 

Yeah that's your only choices...

An Apache is an Apache, so yeah the ROM will work.

LOL thanks I already did it. Used the v1.00 NoID one... Thank goodness it tells you when your using the wrong one ;)

So when I look to install other ROMs, do I have to look for v1.00 NoID?

Re: Is there a way to disable the front buttons?
 

It depends. If it gives you a country ID error then yes you need v1.00 with NoID. Otherwise standard is fine.

Yeah Country ID error is what it gave me....

Re: Is there a way to disable the front buttons?
 

Yep. That's when NoID is handy.

WooHoo I fixed the thumb stick! What a pita... But was worth it and now Im enjoying your ROM :D At least the old XV6700 served some purpose :violent1:

What is it that causes the need for the NoID thing, country error?

Re: Is there a way to disable the front buttons?
 

Not sure on that... for some reason it errors out. And NoID bypasses it.
