Remapping Hardware Buttons - Options Here

[stroths]

Using AE Button Plus (AEB), I was able to remap the center of my d-pad (round button). It's listed as the "Enter\Action" button in AEB. I have it set to press Enter on a single press, which is its normal function. On double press, I have it set to close the active application. On triple press, it runs outlook and on long press it runs the WKTask popup launcher.

You can also remap the volume up/down buttons as mentioned in the 1st post and the long send key (bottom-left phone button). I have my long send button mapped to a flashlight app called TorchButton The Home and <-- buttons are a bit more tricky. If you are not running T3D, you can use AEB to create a button for the Home key and it will work for you. If you are running T3D, it doesn't seem to work. The <-- button is the same story.

I'm hoping that someone (i.e. no2chem) can figure out a way take control of the Home and <- buttons.

My current Setup

Power
Short Press - Unchanged (put device to sleep/default behavior)
Long Press - Toggles Vibrate/Ringer using app called v_vibrate. Long Press is not programmable by AEB. Done using the "Long_Power.lnk" link (2nd method in 1st post).

Items below all programmed with AEB

Center D-Pad Button (circle)
Single Click - Press Enter
Double Click - Close current app (not minimize, but close)
Triple Click - Launch Outlook email
Long Press - WKTask Launcher

Send Key (bottom-left phone button)
Long Press - Launch Flashlight app (Torchbutton)

I will probably program the reset of the send key buttons (single, double, triple click) as well as the phone end key and the volume buttons. Just haven't decided what I want to do with them yet.

The only button I remapped was the call end button. I remapped it to close an application when double press. TF3D really makes it difficult to use some other programs I had on my mogul

How did you remap it?

Go into the AEB Plus program. The call end key for the TP will be called the red phone button once your inside the program. Highlight the red phone button then click on the giant rectangle below with the words "Do not touch button." After you click it, you should come to a drop down menu. Click it & highlight the 3rd option, "Handle by AEBPlus." Once inside of here, you will come across 3 dropdown menus. Highlight the 2nd menu & select double press. Then highlight the 3rd menu & select close active application. Hit OK button below. The rectangle should now read the following: "Hang up current call or... 2: Close active application." Highlight file & select save & exit. Soft reset. Hope this helps

I have my center button re-mapped as below. However when I'm in e-mail & I "double-click" to close a message, returning me to the email list, I lose the ability to scroll up & down the list using the "up" and "down" buttons immediately above & below the center D-pad. Anyone else experiencing this? Any Solution?

Center D-Pad Button (circle)
Single Click - Press Enter
Double Click - Close current app (not minimize, but close)
Triple Click - Do Nothing
Long Press - Open Inbox
