YOU CAN ASSIGN QUICK LIST BOTTEN (POWER BOTTEN) TO APP

Quote:

HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftShellRai:MSQuickAPP

Rename value "1" to something like 'backup' or 'tmp'

- Create new String value (REG_SZ), name it 1

- Now in Value Data you can enter a path to any *.exe (ONLY .exe files!!)

like "IPSMProgram FilesSMS utilsSMS tool"

now if you want to use quick list just make a shortcut of quickapp and move it to start manu quick app is inn windows this is a hidden app you have to shown hidden app before you can make a shortcut and you can add speed dailing if you want

or you can use notepad and write 23#''Windowsquickapp.exe'' and safe it like quickapp.lnk

TO USE QUICKLISL BOTTEN JUST GIVE IT A PUSH DON'T HOLD IT

SORRY FOR VARYYYYYY BAD ENGLISH

now, sorry for asking, but why the hell would you wanna do that???? :(

the power button list is VERY usefull, its the quickest way to access profiles, you can lock the phone aswell as the keypad, turn off the radio, and of course turn off the phone.

Theres loads of apps you can change the launch paths of in the RAI directory, personally i think its a VERY bad idea. Wont be long before someone changes :MSHome (thats the home button by the way) :)

you can just press and hold botten to turn of your phone .

I use this becuse i don't need to chang profile so offen

KjK. I too was wondering the same....why would you want to do that.

But on closer inspection I am going to try it out as my other half wrote a little app that does the same as the built in profile changer option but she has added two assignable application shortcuts at the end of the profile list.

So if I can replace it for the default one it might be Interesting/Handy.

Watch this post......

Potential for a custom profile app maybe, or assign it to quick close or quick reset?

[Guest fraser]

I'd be happy just to use it as a general purpose button, launching a named app. I used to have the voice rec button launch the camera software, but that got zapped by the brilliant XBar tool. Would be nice to have another button to do it with.

I just don't use the quick list at all. Most homescreen's allow profile selection, and I'm happy with holding down "end call" to lock (followed 10 min later by automatic pin lock).

My only worry is that it's a fundamentally important button to the phone. Any ideas on the risks/problems that might occur? The only function I would miss is the "radio off" one, but I use it so rarely, I'd prefer it buried somewhere in my (well organzied) start menu anyway. But, I don't know if it's possible to create a shortcut to this function to drop into the start menu.

WinSXP skin is what you should try mate. It allow windows type scroll down/start menu that has profile option.

I swear by it. It not only looks great but works a treat and doesnt in my opinion slow the phone down.

This way you can free up the power button and still access your phones profiles on the fly.

you use this botton to turn off/on phone and to accsess quick app.

I use this with SP TM Free Mem becuse i use rec botton to voice notes i use voice notes very offen and this work better then to assigne app to rec botten.I made a short cut inn start menu to accsses quick app and I can turn on/off radio from there this work like heaven for me.

Very nice, thanks!!

I agree that this could be very useful. I like having Fonix Voice Dial one button push away (or it kinda defeats the point of it, plus i'v always found the number key short cuts slow/annoying that they don't return to homescreen after use but to the dial screen). Currently i've got it mapped to the record button but this has stopped me from trying X-bar which is supposed to be v good. I never use the quick list, except in the odd occassion when i want to turn the radio off. For me therefore, i think it would be better off assigning a more frequently used program to the quick button and putting the 'quicklist' onto a numeric shortcut.

Ditto. I still use them now and again, but it's a pain in the ass.

It is!! Think of it as an Alt-Tab equivalent on the phone. Makes switching between apps a breeze. I still use Task Manager, but very rarely. Xbar can do all the same things, close one app, close all, plus you can set up your own shortcuts, so you press voice-rec then a number key to launch apps of your choice.
