Profile changing with left or right idle softkey - How can I do it?

Hi All!

I need this function (Profile changing with left or right idle softkey), but I haven't found it on my 6670.
With voice control can do it, so it should be a solution for it.

If it is possible with the standard phone soft it could be great, but if just with a software, it will be good for me, too.

Please help me!

Is not using the power key for changing profiles enough (or haven't you discovered this feature yet)?

That is, a short press of the power key will display the profile list. Another short press will move to the next profile. Once you have the profile you want highlighted, a long press will activate it.

Yes I know his feature but I want another one.
It's not to easy press the power key..
And this solution the same if I attach the profile selector to the right key and after I choose the profile.

I need that I can attach the "Silent" or "General" profil to the right softkey, and pressing this button will change the profile to "Silent" or "General". (With just 1 press)

😮 😮 😮

Actually you can NOT do it with one button but with two (or few) clicks ....

It goes like this :

Settings -> Phone -> StandBy Mode -> Left(Right) Selection Key -> Profiles

And that shold do the job.

Why not try a voice command? That's what I do ...

And I also, I changed the Left Selection Key to "Profiles", and the Right as "Camera" ...

If you happen to have a 6630, then there is a built-in shortcut to switch between the General and Silent profiles: long press of the '#' key in standby state.
