Map Samsung Program Menu to Button/softkey?

rgsekula · #1 (**permalink**) 03-07-2009, 10:53 AM

Is there any way I can map this Samsung Program Menu to a soft key from the today screen? or make it so a long a press on another button will open it straight up to this?

I dont like having to open the Home Menu then Programs. I just want to be able to go directly to the scrollable Program Menu part. I don.t know how to go about doing this. Is there a .exe/.ink in the /windows folder that I can copy to somewhere? I know how to map buttons but don.t have any sort of program menu under my options of selections.

OR even make it so that when I select the HomeMenu Icon or Link it goes directly to the scrollable ProgramsMenu and bypasses all the other parts of the HomeMenu. That would be the berries.

TIA

Start>Settings>Personal>Buttons to change the Main Menu, Main Menu Hold, Camera, Button 4 (Press & Hold).
If you really mean Soft Keys use Cab file attached below. Hope this helps you.

That is not the Main Menu. It is the Programs applet within the Main Menu. Im not sure if they are separate apps. Probably not.

Thanks man, but I already have a .cab I found on the internet somwhere to change the soft keys on the today screen. as of now I have them mapped to the phonebook and the other to WKtask launcher. which is okay but it only has room for 9(nine) choices. I want map a soft key that launches me directly to the "programs applet" within the samsung homemenu. which is in the pic attached above.

What about AE Button? After re-reading your posting I think you may want TouchLaunch. That is much better and you can choose Categories such as All Programs, Favorites, Games, Office adn Utilities. Then you can SoftKey that App.

Hmm, stupid question, but how does one use this? I don't see that it's added a program, or anything in the control panel...
