Just tap on where it says "Do not touch button" and it will bring up the menu that allows you to map the buttons. I agree that it's not the most intuitive program but it's very effective.

thanks. i had gotten there, figured it was the handle by aebutton plus but wasnt sure. what does unbind mean?

also, i want to map the long press for the green button to ms voice command, but it does not come up in my list of applications. how do i fix that? im actually looking to do this for a few programs (such as opera mini) as well

To map to voice command or another program not listed in Aebuttonplus just map to a virtual button in aebuttonplus, then go to settings/buttons in windows and it will list it there as a regular button.

Yes, if you create a shortcut to your java app it will show up in the settings/buttons list of programs to assign to that virtual button

I've never understood the whole "virtual button" thing and how it works. Since you seem to use it, can you please explain exactly what it is and what it does?

you assign the virtual button via aeb+, for instance lets say a double click of the multifunction button. then you go into settings/buttons and it will show up there, like it was a real button on the device. from there you can assign it to a function, and that list is more comprehensive than the list found in aeb+ sometimes (for example, voice command shows up)

I'm still not sure I follow. Are you saying that you create a virtual button in AE so that you can assign a function to it using the standard WM6 buttons app? If so, that doesn't make sense. I don't know what the "multifunction" button is on the Touch but why would you need to create a virtual button for it when you can already assign 4 functions for each button? And you can assign Voice Command via AE - you just need to navigate to it via the "Run Application" option in AE.
