Seconding the Tracker suggestion. Instead of making the gallery button useless, use Tracker to make it useful.

It could be a shortcut to a favorite app or a shortcut to the desk which has shortcuts of its own.

[...] has already gone on and off about how annoying the Gallery button is. He even proposed a suggestion to solve its problem. At the time, I had just got my N95 and it hadn’t pissed me off, YET. But day after day, I [...]

I haven’t really had this problem, but when setting up my AT&T N75, I noticed that those buttons were BOTH on a delay of sorts… so, I guess it’s do-able…

Actually, Tracker can be used to map the Gallery button to any other application. Of course this doesn’t help very much. I would love to stop its action while playing on vBag, and then manually make it reappear once I stopped playing. In case of general phone usage, I have hardly faced any problem with the Gallery button, so it’s not a nuisance for me. It would have been great, if someone from the pool of talented S60 developers could stop the action of the key according to the user’s wish.

I don’t think applications had access to map the gallery button, plus it wouldn’t be convenient at all to make it launch something else. Ricky’s idea is better, just put a timer on the thing, it won’t launch if it’s pressed by mistake

@ Burcrim, can you tell me how to remove the mapping? I want to play using vBag on my N73, and it’ll be really nice if I can use the Gallery button. Currently, using Tracker, I can only change the mapping to something else, and NStarter doesn’t have any access to the said button. So, removal is necessary.
