You can assign to LONG PRESS action = SEND TEXT TO ACTIVE WINDOW, but SINGLE CLICK = DEFUALT KEY ACTION.

There is only one issue with this solution, the driver does not support language state (it means in any language state it will enter the same letter), it does not support SHIFT or CAPS states (it means in any state it will put a lower-case or upper-case letter)...

:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tarkim:
thanks for reporting FN+X issue, just forgot to add checking for current state (hit once/twice)

this will be fixed in next release

i know about Home key default befaviour emulation problem and know where the bug is

so, don't worry, this will be fixed in next version, be patient :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tarkim:
Shift/Caps modifier support will be added in next version, i'm currently working on this

there is one more way to add support for special characters - edit *.kmap.txt files which contain symbol table for each keyboard layout

search the forum to find out how to

Thanks again for the great work. ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
you misunderstood what i ment.

can i edit the driver this edits.

then next time i hard reset somehow copy over the file so i dont have to use the program anymore? all i want is one simple edit. i dont wanna install a whole program for one simple edit.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tarkim:
first of all: if you don't want to install configurator then you don't want to use this remapper at all

and the second: it's very interesting for me how you imagine to edit driver which is in use ? :D

you don't understand how this works and this is the reason why you are asking stupid things

driver is not edited while you changing keys config, it remains the same as it was installed

remapper configuration is stored in registry - backup it before hard reset and then restore (HKLM\Software\KeyboardConfig)

configurator application is designed special for this purpose - not to edit config manually, and it has a future to backup and restore config

so, why you don't want to install configurator ? it's ~120kb not 20mb application, what's the problem with that ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
uhh i only want it to do one thing but it has many other features. im just like that i guess.

i wont install advanced config either because i can do the edits i want myself in the registry.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] smackdaddyD:
I'm not sure if this has been raised, but with a Verizon TP2 I'm having a problem where the FN key does not deactivate after a subsequent key press...

Hitting the FN key turns on FN functionality permenantly until I then press the FN key 3 additional times...it then turns off.

Other then that, thank you so much for giving me a way to map ctrl, tab, and |.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] smackdaddyD:
I stand corrected...this behavior ONLY exists in putty.

Any suggestions to correct this? I'm willing to consider an alternative ssh client.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
actually i think thats normal operation...because my alltel touch pro does the same exact thing. when you press it the 2nd time it stays on so you can rpess more than one function key

edit: actually i just tried it and yeah thats how it works. same as the shift/caps key same concept
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] smackdaddyD:
If I pressed it a second time...but I didn't.

In putty (but not in text messaging and other apps) when I hit the FN key a single time, it will not turn off until I hit it 3 more times.

In all other apps, if I hit it once, it gets "consumed" with the next key press. Hitting it twice to get it to "stick" until turned off continues to work in other apps.

The thing is, I need the FN button most (and the programmed keys most) in my ssh sessions.

EDIT: Rereading my earlier post, I wasn't very clear that the "subsequent key press" was the desired key with the character I wanted, not hitting FN a subsequent time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] smackdaddyD:
It appears this is an issue with putty that somehow didn't exist on my 6800 (running 6.1) but now happens even with the keyboard configurator uninstalled on my TP2.

I don't know for sure that it did it before I installed the configurator, but I would suspect it did, and this is purely an issue related to putty and the new hardware.

I have no idea why it would be different on this phone. At this point this is irrelevant for this thread, but perhaps somebody has a suggestion.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ighost77:
I tried to remap some key to work as "?" sign, but there is no "?" in drop-down list of keys available for remapping. Is it possible to define a key, that functions as "?" ??? :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kovacszj:
double functionality

Hi tarkim!

First of all many thanks for your application.

I would like to ask a question maybe somebody knows the answer. I wanted to assign for one key several options like this:

I assigned for example

key "o" for rule "*"

key mode "Single/double click,...."

Event "Click"

Action "Default key action", than (didn't OK it)

chose Rule + for Rule 2

key mode "Single double click,...."

Event "Long press"

Action "Send text to active window"

Text to send "ó"

Method "Paste".

Than pressed OK I had two rules for key "o" and I updated config. I tried to use this long press option in SMS (opened a new SMS) but didn't work. The default key action works correctly, but with long press no luck. Made a soft reset still the same stuff.

Does anybody know how to set correctly double functionality because maybe I've done something wrong.

Thank for the help in advance.

Regards,

PS: when I assigned simply key "o" without default key action but as long press for "ó" it worked, but didn't had letter "o" for simple click.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] psychomaniac189:
the reason why i thought this changed a driver is because in the first post it tells you to backup a driver. so thats why i thought that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Is there any help or guide documentation available for this? It seems very useful, but I am not able to understand everything required to start safely remapping keys.

I just want to RTFM before I start posting questions.

Thanks!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dmginaz:
Tab key?

I am kind of new to this. Can someone explain specifically how I use this to create a "tab" key?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] noahas:
Is there anyway this program can be used like Magikb where it will make the letter capitalised if the key is pressed and held, and does the special character if a quick double press is performed? I know that the default keyboard action is the special character if held, but there is nothing for capitalisation. Would I have to do it letter by letter with this program?

Thanks.

Working well on my Sprint TP2. Thanks OP!

Works great on my Sprint TP2. Now I have ctrl and alt keys!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Rabia:

Any help here?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Try setting it to run a program, then navigate to Windows/recorder.exe??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
I never got any help either, but if you just play around with it you should eventually get how to use it. You can always delete any keys you create that dont work, or go back and edit them later, so don't be too afraid to just play around.

To answer your question...

Open up the configurator, menu> add key.

press the key you want to assign a function to.

If you want no other functionality out of the key you selected, other than the Tab action, select

Key mode: Direct Key Mapping

Key code: 9 Tab

then ok, Update config.

If you want your key to behave as Tab only if double clicked or long pressed, then select

Key mode: single/double click, long press

Event: whatever you want

Key code: 9 Tab

The nice thing about this method, is that you can keep the keys' original function when it's just pressed once, but you must set

Event: Click

Action: Default key action

otherwise the Action will remain set to "None" and a single click will do nothing.

Hope this helps.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] :
+1, I have an unbranded italian htc touch pro 2.. dunno which to use, gsm or cdma one?? will it work, right? :)

also, is there any way to assign a key to a windows-cycle funtion? like alt+tab on desktop, so that I can switch back and forth between active programs with only one key press (useful to copy/paste and so on...). the first post doesn't mention this possibility... ;)

EDIT: another question guys: would it be possible to reprogram the back mute button to:

- silence phone when on today

- open (and start rec) resco audio recorder when in a call

- BUT at the same time keeping the mute function if the phone is face down??

If it can do these two things, then it's perfect for my needs!!

thank you tarkim, you did a magnificent job, really!! you deserve all our respect!! you are a god!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Protonus:
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS APP!!!

Subscribed for updates. I'm coming from a Titan where AE Buttons was remapping all it's many buttons for multiple functions so this was sorely needed for me! If could request the ability to triple press as well for a different function that would be great!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Closest thing i've found to alt+tab is setting a key press to launch Task Manager. I use the "Q" button and use double tap to bring up start menu and long press to start task manager where I can cycle thru open apps. I also have double tapping "enter" set to minimize app and long press to close. I think this works pretty well.

As far as the mute button on the back, im pretty sure you can do what you're shooting for. It may take setting up a few rules for how u want it to behave. I've seen another thread where someone hase mapped other functions to that button.

Sorry if this a NOOB question but i have a UK WWE TP2 and I looked under my phone band options and I have options for BOTH GSM and WCDMA so which version of the keyboard program do I need, and can In still change my phone's band without any problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tstall2:
Does anyone know where the shortcut is/what the shortcut is named to launch the HTC launcher/start screen? I would like to map this on the keyboard, but have not found the executable to run this. I prefer it to the WM start menu and don't want to reach up to the actual "Home" button when the keyboard is open.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pjm77:
Hi!

First of all - what a great app! Exactly what I needed. Thanks a million!

Here's my little problem - I've been trying to remap the power button. I want it to work like this - short press - sleep, double press - soft reset, long press - power off.

I leave short press default, I assign windows\reset.exe to double press but long press doesn't work as power off anymore. Any ideas? Is there a little program that shuts off the device or would it be possible to create an assignment for shutdown action?

Any ideas welcome, thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
This should be pretty self-explanitory, but I have included notes in the screenshots.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Edit the config and make sure that for long press Action is set to Default key action. It probably is set to None.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Action: Switch to window

Class: Manila

Text: Start

Thats what I use with long press of spacebar, but what sucks is that if you slide to any of the tabs from the home screen, you cant get back to the "real" home screen using the mapped key because all of the TF3D tabs have the same Class/Text.

Haven't yet figured out how to ALWAYS get to home screen (clock, missed calls, etc) , even from a TF3D tab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sancho1234:
Thank you! It is instructive! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
No problem, glad to help! :)

btw, there is a program called AltTab.exe (find the .zip posted here

haven't tried it yet, but if it works well you could just have a key launch this program..

if you try it lemme know how it works.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tstall2:
Thanks for the tip, this gets me close to what I want, but I actually would like to get to the actual "Start/Launch" screen and this takes me to the last TF3D tab as you indicated. I'm thinking there should be an HTC executable that would take you there, but I can't find it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Yeah, I agree. Especially since HOME is listed in programs... lemme know if you find it.

P.S. that AltTab.exe is pretty slick- its a lot better IMO than launching task manager, because once you launch TM it stays running.

Also: Can anybody figure out a way to map a key to toggle the onscreen keyboard? There doesnt seem to be a key code for center soft key like there is with left/right soft keys...

This remapper has a lot of potential... Anyone else do anything cool with it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pjm77:
Thanks but I've tried that before. If I set it to default long press just makes my rhodium go to sleep. There's no way to turn it off except taking out the battery.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
OH MAN!!! I totally figured it out!! :D

Action: Run program

Program: \Windows\manila.exe

Arguments: --switchtopage Manila://home.page

Now you will be sent to the home screen from ANYWHERE!! :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tstall2:
Very cool. One step closer to where I want to be. Is there a page that corresponds to the "Start"/launcher screen?

I have a Verizon TP2, and there is no DEL button. I tried to map the FN + BACKSPACE key to make a DEL, but there is no DEL option in this app. Am I missing something?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] :
thank you sublimedelta9, your help is very precious!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Im confused about what you mean by "Start"/launcher screen... are you refering to the TF3D Programs screen? If so, use:

Action: Run program

Program: \Windows\manila.exe

Arguments: --switchtopage Manila://programs.page

If this isnt the screen youre talking about please post a screenshot of what screen you're trying to get to.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Yeah, there is no key code for DEL.

you may want to check out the changing keyboard layout wiki if you haven't already.

I haven't really investigated how to get DEL function cuz Sprint TP2's have it as FN + BACKSPACE.

goodluck!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tstall2:
You are talking about the correct screen, but the "programs.page" does not work for me. It just goes back to whatever TF3D panel I had open last. Any ideas why? Also your program to run should be manila.exe not "manilla.exe" http://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Picky Picky!:p

hehe.. yeah, I saw that I had spelled it "manilla" instead of manila, but i figured that since you have to navigate to it and cant type it in that nobody would care/notice. :) Ill edit it anyway.

As for programs.page, I added the TF3D Programs tab, so that's probably why it works for me (should have mentioned that earlier). I can try to figureout the correct argument, but it's got to be something close to that.

(IMO adding the programs tab is pretty sweet. You can get to that same screen by sliding to the tab, plus you get the windows style drop down start menu when you tap Start.)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sublimedelta9:
Does pressing the Win Key (next to Call button) take you to the desired program screen?

If so, try this:

Action: Emulate key press

Key: 91 Left Win key

Check LWIN box

Wow... killed 2 birds with one stone! Fantastic. Thanks for the tips, working great now.

double click: Home tab

Long press: Start menu

Fantastic flexibility and it all makes sense for that key. Now off to map my other buttons.

awesome program...

finally i found something to to to the mute button on the back of the device..=)altTab program called using your keyboard driver...

anyway, i tried to change also the "start menu" button on the front (seen as home button from the configurator)

is i set it to do default action at single press anche change long press to toggle wifi, the wifi toggling works, but the single press becomes double..

i mean, a songle press makes the start menu appear and then suddenly it disappears like if there was a second keypress...

remapping the back key the same way works good without double single click (at least it doesn't seem)

Not working with Verizon Touch Pro 2

Is this suppose to work with the Verizon Touch Pro 2? I even cleared memory to factory default and install just the one cab (cdma 1.3.2) so it would be the only thing loaded and the keys still go dead when it is loaded. Is there something else I should try? I am really hoping that this app will work on my device. It will solve a number of problems for me.

Thanks, Raymond
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Austin808:
Raymond,

Not sure why it is not working for you.

I have installed and currently using Keyboard Config on my Verizon TP2. I have the following mappings working:

long press mute = toggle bluetooth

FN + C = copy

FN + V = paste

FN + X = cut

FN + T = tab
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] RaymondEC:
Third time is the charm. I installed it again so I could quote the error message I got from the Keyboard Config program and the keys didn't die. I use Delorme Street Atlas as my mapping software and it requires the up and down keys for zooming, so I am really happy this is working now.

Thanks for the great utility

I didn't see any info in the wiki, but I did notice the onscreen keyboard has a DEL key. Not sure how to access it to map it to the FN+BKSP key. I'm going to try the copy/paste/tab mapping...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Ravicai:
I'm using this on Sprint TP2 and I love this app. It makes gaming on emulators possible and I have a control key to boot. I dig the ability to save/load config files.

Two suggestions;

1) Ability to 'bookmark' your configs within the application for even faster saving/loading (rather then searching for them in the file system).

2) Add shortcut to 'Program Files' for quicker access.

I switch between emulators and text messaging a lot. Right now switching profiles is pretty tedious and takes like 15 seconds. I often find myself just using the onscreen keyboard so I don't have to go through the trouble of changing configs.

Toggle Ringer/Vibrate

I've got an AT&T Fuze, but I just got my wife the T-Mobile Touch Pro 2. I'm used to being able to long-press the end key to toggle vibrate on/off. Is there any way to do this on the Pro 2?

Thanks!

Edit: ... with this keyboard controller. I searched around the Rhodium forums and couldn't find anything to do this other than AEB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] whiteblazer01:
Only way I know of is to use the volume keys, then press vibrate. On a side note, there is an app for the end key that pulls up a quick action screen (toggle shortcuts, soft reset, etc...). http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=547432 very nice feature to have.

FYI, I believe AT&T is releasing the Tilt 2 next month (I hear mixed dates - the 6th or 18th, but I think the 18th).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Nautme:
Yeah, it's not too difficult to press a volume key, then vibrate, but it's nice to be able to feel around in my pocket for the end button and then hold it down without really looking.

I pay attention to the dates, and would love to get the Tilt 2, but I'm not too far into my contract and aren't willing to part with the dough. She's in a business plan with T-Mobile and I used the "Windows Mobile" promo code to get the phone for $149... How awesome is that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] TheMach:
Nautme, I think this is what you're looking for. Go to Settings - Buttons under the Personal Tab - click the End Key tab at the bottom - Select Automatically Execute the Selected Action: - and select Set Vibrate/Ringer.

This maps just great on my sprint tp2. (The button right next to talk/send, right?) I have it mapped for a click to run one program and long press for another program.
