Yes but pressing up just doesnt feel the same as having the activity menu. You cant resume java apps from there or see new events etc.

I reckon if this can be done, which I am sure given time it can, the K750/W800 hybrid will be an ideal phone. That really is the only thing missing from the W800i firmware that I miss.

I really wonder what the first line "MediaPlayer" relates to if it is present in both the dyn_shortcut.dat on both the K750i and W800i.

It's just the default shortcut on the shortcut menu (of either w800 or k750). The K750 has a media player too you know

Yup I know that but what I was saying was the the MediaPlayer tag was not reffering to the activity menu button. And it doesnt appear as default as the first option in the activity menu either.

Nah not tried to change it because I wouldnt have any clue what the tags would be + I dont think you can link it unless the activity menu is already active in the files else where. We need to find out where the menu is actually stored in the K750i and how it works in correspondence with the FM.

I think you are right there. My feeling actual activity menu code (as opposed to the weak shortcuts menu of the W800) is probably only included in the main flash of K750 firmware.

Vodafone Live handsets have an ACTIVITY_BUTTON_HOOK which points to vodafone live. When you delete that hook from /tpa/preset/system/custmenu, and set action-button-activates to to "true" in the customize.xml (then do a master reset), the activity button returns to normal:

Code:
<activity-menu>
<activity-menu-neweventstyle>false</activity-menu-neweventstyle>
<action-button-activates>true</action-button-activates>
</activity-menu>

So it may be possible to use vodafone's trick to make the middle button bring up the shortcut menu (still not activity button but close), but I'm not sure what link string you would use in activity_button_hook.xml to bring up the shortcuts menu.

Also, the trick may not work on non-vodafone firmware.

I couldn't get it to work. But we are missing tag info. If I knew what string points to activity menu - it might be able to call it up - for example use right_softkey_hook to make the right softkey pull up the full activity menu (that would eb better than nothing)
