What is funny is that I never saw this post, but I pm'ed stroths to see if he was able to take over the home key. Stroths has been swearing by this program for years now. I heeded his advice long ago, and now my pocket pc's are much more functional. AE button plus FTW.

I just copied his volume up keys. I can't believe he thought about having the volume keys active during a call. F*kn brilliant.

How can I map the phone red button so that 2 presses bring me to "Text message" and 3 clicks bring me to "email"? I can only map it to "Messaging" where I have to then click on text message. I want to go directly to text messages. How can I do this?

I think you can only get to messaging. but you can open your keyboard and use the hardkeys if you want.

I would suggest you create shortcuts to each and then map the double and triple click to each shortcut.

SMS Shortcut
\Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS"

Activesync (I use Exchange)
\Windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync"

If you don't use an exchange server then you might need a different shortcut for email. You should be able to find it with google using the info I listed above.

what does "Control Volume Directly" under options do?

when I remap to "messaging" it brings up messaging... how to I get it to bring up outlook?

Cool! I took your idea and went an easier route.

When I am in the screen to edit the button in the "Run Application", in the box with Optional Parameter, I put

SMS Optional Parameter
-service "SMS"

Gmail Optional Parameter
-service "Gmail"

My current Setup

Items below all programmed with AEB

Enter/Action (Center D-Pad Button circle)
Single Click - Press Enter (Call Default Handler)
Double Click - Press Esc
Triple Click - Task manager
Long Press - Show Actions Menu

Green Phone Button - Send Key (bottom-left phone button)
Single Click - Press Green Button
Double Click - Messaging -service "SMS"
Triple Click - Messaging -Service "Gmail"
Long Press - Send Key (Hold) -Configured as Voice Dial from the control panel, where this key is already mapped

Red Phone Button -End Call Key (bottom-right phone button)
Single Click - Press Red Button
Double Click - Alt-Tab
Long Press - Mapped from Control Panel as "Vibrate", which came stock configurable in the control panel.

Volume Up Key (Side of phone)
Single Click - Ok/Close
Double Click - Start Menu
Long Press - Volume Up - To get volume up, I just simply press down then up, or hold it up.

I have not configured down as yet, because I do not know what other programs I want mapped.

Thanks for the info.. i was able to remap my enter key, but for some reason it's not letting me remap the send/end keys... i tried mapping it to task facade (long hold), but it ignores that and does what I had it set in "system>long press end key." Is anyone else having this problem? I also can't remap the send keys.
I should be changing the "green/red phone buttons" in aebutton settings right? and they do work in touchflo3d right? Hopefully someone can help... thanks

I've done this before and reflashed to Jugg's ROM. Now I can't find the thread that shows you how to do this. I've been searching for the last 15 minutes and can't find it. Tried: soft keys, home soft, remap soft keys, etc..

Can someone tell me what terms to search or provide a link please?
