Full Version: Remap softkeys in Home tab of TouchFLO 3D
PPCSG > Power Up Your Devices > Tips & Tricks

Most users already know how to remap the softkeys on the today screen, but TouchFLO 3D uses its own softkeys. However, it is actually possible to remap the softkeys for the home tab in TouchFLO 3D.

Registry Path: HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila

Value Name: HomeLSKPath
Description: Path to shortcut/executable file for left softkey

Value Name: HomeRSKPath
Description: Path to shortcut/executable file for right softkey

Value Name: HomeLSKText
Description: Text for left softkey

Value Name: HomeRSKText
Description: Text for right softkey

P.S: I will release a special edition of KeySwop (tentatively called "TF3D KeyMap" unless somebody has a better name suggestion) very soon to make things easier. grin.gif

why not extend from your KeySwop instead of a special edition? :)

Detect whether the phone is using manila by checking the registry, then determine the right registry to update the softkey config..

There are some differences, which is why I am still considering whether I should make the extra effort to integrate them. For example, the method to reset the softkeys and the method to "activate" the changes are different.

Btw, the application is kinda ready and I am already happily using it for my device.

Alrighty....I've extended KeySwop to support TouchFLO 3D, but I've not release this version yet. I need the help of at least one Touch Pro user and one Touch Diamond user to help test and confirm that it is working well. On my Touch Pro, it works well but having a 3rd party to test is always better.

The new version of KeySwop automatically checks whether Touch FLO 3D is present and is in use. If yes, it will only check and modify the softkeys for TouchFLO 3D. Otherwise, it will work on the "normal" today softkeys.

Whoever wishes to help me test the beta version, please give me your e-mail address via PM. I will release the new version after I receive positive results for both devices. smile.gif
