I tried to locate the CMD .dll of 'Record" on Resco Audio Recorder, but it is close to impossible. I believe this is what you need; To press the Assigned PTT button to a recording software, then if you press and hold, it will start recording and when you release it will stop... Am I correct? That means three functions for the ptt button... Starting the recording program, Start recording and end recording. If someone can trace the "Record" CMD of the audio Recorder program, then we might have a solution.

OK - just picked up my Tilt. I read this thread in it's entirety. My head hurts.

Just install PTT_Fix_4Tilt and walah, it worked! yay... when I did a soft reset, i got an error msg. BUT the in the settings all's well.

Got it mapped for S2U2 and SPB Mobile Shell Now screen.

Thanks!

Not linking

I'm getting a "Button 6" entry in settings->buttons, and I can assign the button to a program, however whenever I push the PTT button it starts up PTT

*edit: Going back into the registry I used a "#" instead of ";" to prevent the PTT Dll from loading which seemed to work just fine until I went back into HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys only to find that my entry for 40C6 was gone after having done a soft reset. I re-did the making of 40C6 and it disappeared again after another soft reset.

So, I've managed to avoid accidentally incurring PTT charges at the cost of now having a useless button.

*edit: nevemind, I just didn't read far enough into the thread.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] santosgm:
This worked for me on my att tilt. I used the mobile registry editor. You unzip it on your PC and run the executable. I backed up my registry first and through active sync file explorer, put it on my storage card--just in case. I followed the clear instructions above and have assigned the press to ms voice command and the press an hold to the camera. I assigned the camera key earlier to window media and I am so used to it I did not want to change.

I am really thankful to you all on xda-developers for your help in so many matters. Your efforts are appreciated. The PPT button was a nuisance. Now it is a tool. Thanks again.

Thank you SOOOO much for your easy instructions on remapping that STUPID PTT button!!! I have always been afraid to touch registry editors because while I love fiddling around with my phone and customizing, I am not a programmer and all that stuff is greek to me and I have always been afraid I'd mess up my phone but you made it super easy!

remap ptt button

This worked well for me:

-	Work around for AT&T Fuse PTT button assignment.

________________________________________

If you want to use that PTT button for something on your AT&T Fuze without buying software to do it, follow my instructions below.

Warning. Editing the registry can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. I suggest backing up your device before starting this. It isn't at all complicated, but mistakes can have unintended results. This will disable PTT.

-Set your PTT button to <None> in Start, Settings, Buttons (un-needed step)

-In registry export or delete: HKCU\Software\HTC\PTT and HKLM/Services/PTT.

-Rename Windows\PTT to something else (you can't delete it...yet)

-Create a blank file called PTT in \Windows\, set the properties to System, Read Only – use Total Commander

If you happen to go into Start, Settings, Buttons and try to assign the button there to something, the PTT directory you just renamed will get recreated. This Null file will prevent the directory from being recreated due to a name conflict.

- go in Programs, look for Audio Notes Touch and BlueTooth Toggle.exe, tap’n’hold and choose Copy

- go in \Windows and for each of them Paste Shortcut

-Create two shortcut links: short_PTT.lnk, and long_PTT.lnk in \Windows\, that point to the apps you want to run for each of those types of presses. For example: "\Windows\Camera.exe"

- choose the applications you want activated with the PTT button

- use File Explorer to Copy and Paste Shortcut of those applications in Windows

- Rename them as above

- rename each shortcut accordingly, as short_PTT.lnk, and long_PTT.lnk

-Power Off

-Power On

-Your PTT button should now be functional without any errors, or PTT service messages.

-A short press will run whatever you have defined in short_PTT.lnk (I have it set to voice command: "\windows\VoiceCMD.exe" -min

-A long press will run whatever you have defined in long_PTT.lnk (I have it set to the camera: "\Windows\Camera.exe"

I used Total Commander for all registry and file operations. Assignments stick after soft resets and power off reboots. Setting the Button under Start, Settings, Buttons will have no effect. As a matter of cleanup you can go back and delete the folder you renamed in step3 if you want.

Well, after flashing my 8925 with the HTC Rom, the PTT button just works automatically (including push and hold). It also included Worldcard Mobile! Very cool application. I tested it on a slightly bent up business card with notes written in ink on it and it worked perfectly. I'm impressed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] swamp2:
PTT and VC

Do I understand you correctly. You have a single push of the PTT button activating VC and a push and hold activates PTT?? Full details please.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] robroth:
The full details are already above.

40C6 = PTT push

40C7 = PTT push and hold
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] sirsycho:
If I understand your question correctly... no this is not what these changes do. However, it is feasible that in the foreseeable future that this capability could be enabled (or maybe not).

As it stands right now, these changes allow you to map any application that shows up in the Button Menu to the Tilt's PTT button (and another app when you press and hold the PTT button).

This is only a concern for the AT&T ROM, since the HTC ROM has this functionality built in (in other words, not crippled by AT&T).

####

You can really map anything to this button using the registry, but if memory serves, PTT isn't very straight forward.

Summary Please?

It sounds like we have a working solution, but it is somewhat spread over the 3 pages ... can someone give a step by step to map the PTT to Voice Command on AT&T Roms on the Tilt?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] gregross:
Disable PTT (Credit to vpoet)

In the registry navigate to the hklm\services\ptt

Back it up and delete it (yes the entire key)

Add a new key for the PTT Button (Credit to mbritten)

Navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys

Add a new key called 40C6

Add a string called Name with the value Button 6

Add a new key for the PTT Button - Press and Hold

Navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys

Add a new key called 40C7

Add a string called Name with the value Button 6 (Press & Hold)

you should now be able to assign a program to these two buttons through settings/buttons – It will set the rest of the necessary registry values.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] strikeIII:
so were you say "Add a new key for the PTT Button, and Add a new key for the PTT Button - Press and Hold" are those two steps are done in hklm\services\ptt then the rest in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Deathace:
Registry Keys

I don't know if its of much use to people or if it will work but here is a registry file (.reg) which I exported from my T-Mobile UK phone which has the button 6 assigned to speed dial and button 6(hold) assigned to voice recorder (T-Mobile default) I have added a line to the registry file to remove the PTT registry entry so it should work if WM6 allows running of .reg files (I have resco explorer installed so its part of that for sure).

Open a blank text file paste in between the -- & -- and save it as PTTFix.reg

If you know the location of the program you want to assign then edit the @= fields below (or just leave them and assign it in buttons) also change the location of the icon if you desire then save it, copy the file to your Kaiser and then in file explorer find the .reg file and open it, it should work ok and then open buttons in the settings menu and set your program for each button.

FWIW. I just put the HTC Kaiser ROM on my Tilt and it must have automatically configured the PTT button. Because in my button settings I now have to option to set it. Push and hold... BTW if you haven't put the Kaiser ROM on the Tilt you REALLY should. Night and day difference. And it took me a total of 12 minutes.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] gregross:
thinking about taking the leap - what besides a ton less bloat does the HTC Rom offer over the at&t ROM

g
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] robroth:
I mentioned this back at post #25, but I disagree about night and day. It's really not all that much better. There's more memory available, sure. It has the WorldCard business card scanner (very cool), but the Today plugin is installable on the ATT ROM (and is also configurable unlike the HTC version), there's TouchFlo which is neat but people are reporting that's available on the ATT ROM (I must have missed it), the PTT keys are configurable on the ATT ROM via a registry editor. HTC is certainly no faster.

My recommendation is that unless you want the WordCard application, don't bother moving to HTC. You'll have to invalidate your warranty to do so (CID unlock) and there really isn't all that much advantage, if any. I've also had more issues with the GPS on the HTC ROM but I think they're sorted out.

You can switch something that doesn't "invalidate" the warranty. It's in a post here somewhere. It's part of Hard SPL. Then you can put the ATT ROM back on. I think it's a much cleaner ROM with all the stuff you want to enable on the ATT ROM already setup. YMMV

Use with Voice Command

Just for the record.

Anyone wanting to use this button for Voice Command and hold to cancel (like original intent)

Create the first registry value for button 6, then duplicate it for Press and Hold.

Keep the "default value" on both pointing to voice command in the registry and it works.

If you go into buttons, it will try not to let you leave buttons with the same app bound to two keys.

Remap PTT

I am accustom to my Windows Mobile 5 Samsung i730 which has a voice recorder button. When you press and hold the button it starts NOTES in voice recorder mode and will record as long as you hold the button down. Press and hold the button again and it will record a new entry until you release the button.

Does anybody know how to make the PTT button perform in this manner. I can get it map and start the app but I can't get it to start recording by holding the button down.

I am working on a cab file for this but unless you guys have the original files it wont work, look for voice.exe & hotvoice.exe and tell me if you have them in your windows directory on your device.

UPDATE: Ok I have created a cab file with the relevant shortcut but I cant copy the original files because they are in the ROM and resco or file explorer will not allow me to copy them out (unless someone knows how) Therefore if you guys do not have the files then it wont work.

I have confirmed installation and uninstall works perfectly fine along with the registry updates and the settings for just pushing and holding the button for a few seconds until it beeps then start talking.

I am working on being able to extract the files from the rom to include them and other registry entries that may be needed but until i know if this works or it doesnt on a non t-mobile phone i cant go any further. Install to main (0kb size on install is correct)

P.S. those with the PTT registry entry what is inside there or is it just an empty directory (we don't have it on t-mobile version)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] cpfuller:
Deathace thanks for working on this solution. Here is what happens on my AT&T Tilt. My Tilt has hotvoice in the windows directory. When I press and hold the PTT button I hear 2 beeps but the notes application does not open automatically. It is in fact recording but you don't know it because the app isn't open. In my opinion this is not necessarily a bad thing but some people might prefer to actually see the recording and possible name it when done.

This was a big thing for me thanks for solving it. Let me know if I can help in some way.

I have been using the latest AE Button Plus - it will remap the ok button - short and long push.

The only caveat is that when you are on the today screen the first push of the Ok button brings up the start menu - the next push activiates whatever you have programmed in AE Button.

On all other screens Ok activates AE Button programming

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] roverman:
Emmit, I'm about as green as you so maybe I can help. First, you definitely need a registry editor. PHM is what I use. Save it to your desktop, then with activesync, drag it onto your phone. I put mine on my storage card. Once you open the registry editor, you have to keep clicking on the tree to expand it:

-click the plus sign next to HKEY local machine

-scroll down to services and open that

-press and hold the 'push to talk' key

-delete it. (I didn't back it up)

THEN..go to hklocalmachine-software-microsoft-shell-keys

highlight the 'keys' key and then go to edit and hit new key

type in 40C6 for the name of that key

when it's highlited, hit edit - new Dword

for value name, type in "NAME"

for value data, type in "Button 6"

make another key 40C7 for the press and hold the same way.

Hope this helps...Noobs gotta help noobs:)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Kokkos:
Command Line parameters Keylock.exe

Command Line parameters

The following command line parameters exist for the backend of Automatic Keylock, Keylock.exe:

/off

This command line switch shuts down Automatic Keylock completely without altering the settings. To enable it again, call Keylock.exe without parameters.

/toggle

This parameter toggles Automatic Keylock between on and off state.

/reload

If Keylock.exe is called with this parameter, the settings are reloaded from registry.

API

You can control Automatic Keylock via an API which works via window messages. The window which accepts these messages has the class name "AutoKeylockWindow". The window messages are as follows:

WM_USER+0x100 - enable features

With this message, you can enable certain features of Automatic Keylock.

0x1 - enable keypad lock

0x10001 - enable device lock

0x2 - enable screen saver

- return value: 0

WM_USER + 0x101 - disable features

This message disables the features.

- wParam is ignored

- lParam can be a combination of the following:

0x1 - disable keypad lock

0x2 - disable screen saver

WM_USER+ 0x102 - query feature state (Automatic Keylock >= 3.9)

With this message, you can query the current feature state.

- wParam is ignored

- lParam is ignored
