I'm not sure what English textures are, but if you are saying that you need the English version of The Go Go, try this thread:

Try MapButtons. I have a Sony TH-55 and it allows me to map the capture and voice recorder buttons to launch a particular app.

You may want to try freeware easylaunch. I use it with my SJ30 to remap the buttons to do other things and it also allows you to use strokes to bring up certain apps.

Just to note-

I'm working on a current app that will be like MapButtons except more powerful (MapButtons unfortunately only lets you map camera and voice recorder buttons). Check out my new post "SharkButton" for more.

I think you have your threads confused? You didn't ask for a clock, you asked for an application to remap your buttons... :confused:

For checking time (and remaining appointments of the day) quickly from off state, I just press and hold DateBook button (hard button 1 on the left bottom of TH55) then press the CAPTURE button to turn the display off again. Hence, a press-hold and another press. This trick can be done by mapping the press hold DateBook button to ClockPop5 (http://palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&SID=D9EFF818-7E95-2C2B-7CE088028F0D7FF5&PartnerREF=&prodID=51504) and the CAPTURE button to power on/off via THe Go! Go!

I used to use BigClock for my old N760C, but now prefer high resolution clock for my TH55.

The clock display in ClockPop5 is as big as that of BigClock. Plus I add remaining appointment of the day, GMT, battery status, free RAM status all in one screen. :D

You may want to try freeware easylaunch. I use it with my SJ30 to remap the buttons to do other things and it also allows you to use strokes to bring up certain apps.

EL used to be my favorite button mapping launcher. It is an old OS4 Hack and has very limited use in OS5 with the help of TealMaster. I wish the developer update it for OS5. For mapping CAPTURE button to BigClock, I don't think is going to work as it does not have that option available.

The utility apps that can map the CAPTURE button to other purpose, so far, are McPhling, Zlauncher, and THe Go! Go! for, again, very limited purpose. From the previous posts, it sounds like MapButtons and SharkButton can do it too.

You may try mapping the CAPTURE button to Zlauncher to launch Quick Launch Anywhere (QLA), where BigClock is one of the app listed in the popup QLA window. However, you still need THe Go! Go! for mapping the power on/off to the CAPTURE button. Once you have it setup, they will work like as follows:
1. Press CAPTURE button to turn on and popup QLA.
2. Scroll the JogDial to BigClock.
3. Jog press to launch BigClock.
4. Press CAPTURE button to turn it off.

In the end ClockPop5 & THe Go! Go! combination is the better option (2 steps). Or, just map the CAPTURE button to BigClock via MapButtons (SharkButtons) and use the normal power/hold slider to on/off (3 steps).

In pda world all are so compicated...
Any easier way ?
Tungsten t and zire 71 have this 5-way navigator clock - one push it will go on and it will automatically go off...
