24->12hr clock - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Does anybody know the registry edit to convert the 24hr clock to a 12hr clock in the xda-developers rom????
-Justin

No need to edit the registry: just go to 'Settings', 'System', 'Regional settings', and on the 'Time' tab change the field that says HH:mm:ss to 'H:mm:ss' and set the AM and PM symbols to 'AM' and 'PM' respectively.

hey this didnt work it just removes the zero before single digits (ex: 0:32) what elase do you suggest that I try???
thanks in advance...

Whoops, I think you needed 'h:MM:SS', as in lower-case 'h' for the 12-hr clock.
Sorry...

its actually H:MM:SS TT its the 12 hour format

Location of registry setting for taskbar time format?

Exactly what the title asks... I would like to change my current time format on my taskbar. It currently displays time in the h:mm format. I would like to switch over to h:mm:ss format if possible.
Im assuming there is a registry setting to alter that? Anyone know the location?

That seems a bit overkill for what I want to do. I dont want another program on my phone. I simply would like to change the format of the time on the taskbar. That program adds a second time display next to the already existing one that covers the area where the close button would be.
Anyone have any ideas? I would think the key would be located in the /windows/nls/overides area.. but the only time format key I see is for the long format.
I think it impossible to edit clock format in taskbar.
Clock format can be set in the windows registry:
AM/PM Time Format (Windows Default)
Registry location: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International]
Keys:
"iTime"="0"
"iTLZero"="0"
"sTimeFormat"="h:mm:ss tt"
24 Hour Time Format
Registry location: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International]
Keys:
"iTime"="1"
"iTLZero"="1"
"sTimeFormat"="HH:mm:ss"
I think this is changeable from Settings > System > Regional Settings.
Click Time tab, change Time Style from h:mm to h:mm:ss tt
This'll also force it to display AM/PM, IIRC.
If this isn't doing it for you, try this registry edit:
\\HKLM\nls\overrides\STFmt = (string) h:mm:ss
If that doesn't do it, someone else might have a fix for you...

PROB SOLVED - Icons on uppr right start tl bar do nt shw up

Please see attached screen capture to visualize problem. The signal strength icon only shows 1/2 of itself, the volume and upcoming appointment icons do not show up at all. Occasionally, when the setting page is displayed, the signal strength icon will display in its entirety. Once the settings screen is minimized, then the signal strength goes back to 1/2 display. Any ideas as to what is wrong? Thank-you, MWP.[/img]
Help - Icons on upper right start tool bar do not show up
I have the same problem, it happened right after I installed Registry Wizard. Anyone know how to fix this, or what setting on Registry Wizard may have caused this?
Help - Icons on upper right start tool bar do not show up
In Regisrty Wizard, I had to set the "Task Bar Date/Time" from "Nothing" to "Clock" to get my sound and signal icons back.
What happens if you're not using registry wizard?
Is there a reg hack using Resco Registry that I can entry to correct this problem? Thanks for your help in advance, MWP.
Problem Solved!
Alter Taskbar Date/Time
Registry: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell
Key: TBOpt (dWord)
Value: 0 = Nothing
1 = Time
2 = Date
3 = Time and date
Using option 1 works like a charm and restores the tool bar icons!
Regards to all, MWP.

I can do better than that. I can point you to the cab I made of the relevant changes so all you need to do is install this one file!
Great job, but do tell if the video call button would come back or not if I uninstall the Cab file.
If not how can we bring it back if and when I want to
This freeware program is a great alternative. Includes a reset to default command.

i got a kinda similiar problem..except i wanna change my left soft key which now says TODAY SCREEN to watever da the default was..i think it was PHONE on my tf3d home screen..the reason it says TODAY SCREEN was after i uninstalled the phone alarm cab i was left wit dat..now i cant figure out how to change it back..i tried da fantasticbytes softkey manager didnt change anything..so if anyone can help or point me to right link link..really appreciate it..thanx
Can someone give me the registry path, so I can choose witch programma I like to map?
I have the new 2.03 ROM installed but want to change the dailer softkeys.
Thanks
You would have to find out a way to edit the DLL from post #4.
Unlike the softkeys from the homescreen the softkey on the dialer work totally different.
I didn't realise we were talking about the dialer when I posted above!
You can change the Left Softkey to the default contacts application (iContact BE on my phone) by setting the following registry DWORD to 1:
HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\LSKContact
Cab file attached (my first ever)
Also, you can drop this file in your Windows dir. Just overwrite the original with Total Commander or Resco.

What does this DLL do?
Now I have standard Windows Contacts or Pocket Informant, but I want iContact set as default contact button. This because in the phonepad I can't switch to second phone number when using smartdail...

That registry key is allready set to 1, but I can't get iContact to start...
What does your cab file do?

It just sets that one registry value, changing the left soft key of the dialer to "Contacts".
This launches the default contacts application - normally pOutlook but it should be iContact if you have installed it.
I installed the new iContact 0.9 and now it is default contact manager
Thanks

Titanium Clock Edit

I need to edit the reg for the default clock so that when I tap on the clock panel it opens \program files\Chronos\chronos.exe
instead of opening the default system clock page.
I can't figure out how to do this...
thanks.

Change the link with CHome Editor.
I tried, there is nothing to edit in there that I can find that changes anything.

You are right, i tried also to create a new action url in the registry but it wont work....looks like hardwired as all standard titanium plugins.
Does that mean you have to edit the cpr file or something? I've never done that and don't think I know how or have to tools to do so...

To edit the cpr file you need only a Notepad text editor. But it is not that easy. In the cpr there are only specified layouts, fonts, colors, images, anything visual.
I guess the action url paths for the standard titanium panels are in the bronzeres.dll, but to edit it you need special tools to hack the resources. That is not at all easy, i would not touch that if you have not at least basic programming skills.
I would say I have basic programming skills. (VBA in Word and Outlook) Would I need some kind of program code editor, or is it something I could modify with notepad, or this XML notepad I just installed? I'd really like to get it to refer to my Chronos app instead of the default clock app.
thanks.

No it is no text file like the cpr or xml files, and therefore it cannot be edited with notepad. I am not sure what tools you have to use to modify dll files.

HKLM/software/microsoft/shell/rai/msclock

looks like this is correct as i set my right softkey to g-alarm and this also changed the action when selecting the clock. Checked out this reg key and its linked to g-alarm so prob correct. Finally the answer for you.
yes lioryte is correct, that is how I got it to associate with Samsung clock lol.
Opening Chronos via tap of the clock panel:
...well, Chronos.exe is located in Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe
None of these work for MSClock/1:
Chronos.exe
Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe
/Program Files/Chrono/Chronos.exe
They give me the messege, "The file Chronos cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or ..."
If I move the executable Chronos.exe from Program Files into Windows, it does open up Chronos, but this sounds like it would cause other problems with the program???
Is there some other value I could asign to MSClock/1 to lead to /Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe?
Is it alright to just move that .exe???
try just making a shortcut to the .exe in windows and then put chronos.lnk in the reg..
Oh, I tried that too...
Using total commander, I create a shortcut 'chrono.lnk' in the window dir that pointed to \program files\chronos\chronos.exe, and set it for the value of MSClock/1, but it too would give me an error.
AH, I got it!
use quotes.
"\Program Files/Chronos/...
include the quotes in the value
More specifically:
"\Windows\ChronosStartup.exe" alarms
"\Windows\ChronosStartup.exe" Timers
...these work for right soft key, & MSClock
