"Here’s something for WM5 Smartphone users out there. What the tweak will do is to allow you to use keypad buttons to scroll up or down PIE instead of using the joystick/ action button. Thanks to ‘dq366‘ of MoDaCo for the instructions."



MVP gpcarreon has posted what I think is the best tip ever. The tip solves my biggest problem: I have QVGA screen + EDGE + pIE on my Smartphone but browsing is still a pain. To scroll the page I have to use the joy stick which is slow. Evil or Very Mad This tip overcomes the problem by creating keypad shortcuts for page up, page down, page top and page bottom etc. Cool Thanks encece, for pointing out this tip. So get your mobile registry editors out and add these settings. Since backup tools are not available, please be careful while modifying the registry. And gpcarreon has a solution for the Windows Mobile 2003 SE users also, check out the Windows Mobile 2003 SE fix over here.
I added the following KeyMaps on my Smartphone:
• Key pad button 2 (Value name: 50) -> Page up (DWORD value: 1)
• Key pad button 8 (Value name: 56) -> Page down (DWORD value: 2)
• Key pad button 3 (Value name: 51) -> Page top (DWORD value: 3)
• Key pad button 9 (Value name: 57) -> Page bottom (DWORD value: 4)
• Key pad button 5 (Value name: 53) -> Full screen toggle (DWORD value: 12)

Once you hook up the KeyMaps...you start flying! Cool

Wonder why Microsoft never enabled this out of the box? Confused

The greatest tweak yet! Fantastic...

Now, possible to add 'Show Pictures' toggle button as well? Or, how about a button to toggle through the 3 different views? That would really comlete the package. Wait, no tabs would, but that's not possible.

What would make this better is if you could map it to the volume up / down button. I never use that thing anyway. Wink

I think no one uses those buttons. It would be better if hardware manufacturers substitute those buttons for a jog wheel or something simmilar for scrolling.

Do you have any other keycode values? Ie, for *, 0, and #?

1-9 are easy enough to extrapolate from the above.
