ClearType Software - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi,
I'm new on this forum (owner of a Qtek 2020 since yesterday !). I'm looking for a software that allow me to fine tune the ClearType Font. This software was included in the ROM of my previous Pocket PC (iPAQ 2210). Do you know if a such software is available ?
Thanks

I don't think it's software that can be downloaded, in the iPAQ 2210 it was baked in the ROM. unless our friends at xda-developers try and develop something for it in their new ROM kitchen

Cleartype is in the O2 rom and should also be in yours already, check your settings panel - Settings->System->Screen and check 'enable Cleartype'.

I don't need to enable ClearType. It's already done on my Qtek. What I need is the possibility to adjust it (see the picture below).
I know what Roffa says. It's included in the 2210 ROM. But I think that maybe a developper has developped it for all Pocket PC ... :?:

Screen Rotation for Dummies (SRS)

Hi,
This is seems to be the last version of our magic tool - Screen Rotation Service (or SRS). It includes Second Edition's Today Theme (menu & today scrollers support in landscape) and feature to automatically resize your today screen for Landscape Theme!
(Download it here: setup.armv4.exe)
During installation you will need to answer "Yes" to this message:
Code:
The file"\Windows\ace_ddi.dll" is hidden, read-only, or a system file. Would you like to replace the existing file?
After installation you need to go to: [Start menu] - [Settings] - [Today] and select "WMSE" theme from the list
And one more, minimize (X) your programs before switching
Thanx to abc and everyone here!
Re: SRS HE = Halloween Edition
Feel free to post your feedback/questions on this version of SRS to this thread
More recommendations that i remember about SRS:
1) Do not soft-reset your device when in landscape-mode
2) Minimize (X) your programs when switching between different modes
To install SRS-HE:
1] Download SRS-HE to your PC
2] Run it to get "setup.armv4.cab"
3] Copy this file to your PDA
4] Tap on it to install SRS-HE
5] Soft-reset your device
6] Go to [Start Menu] -> [Settings] -> [Today]
7] Select "Wmse" Theme from the list
8] Use [Start Menu]->[Settings]->[SRS] to switch the modes

No it is installable on any Himalaya device with any combinations of ROM, radio and ExtROMs
If it doesn't run at your specific system, you can always uninstall it without any damage. It really worth to try!
Yeah, I have ROM 1.60 (latest O2 UK rom) and it didn't work very well at all. Half the OS had problems, including the camera (even v2.5), the Today screen and many of the Control Panel applets.
I've seen reports on this site of people having fewer problems with ROM 1.66, but I don't think anybody has claimed that they've got it working with ROM 1.60 without problems.
Still, I'm hoping O2 UK are going to release 1.72 tomorrow!

Where did you get such ROM version? And why you are not moving to 1.72? It doesn't really matter who the supplier of the ExtRom is (imate, qtec, tmob...) it is a matter of OS rom content. So, just update your device and receive a set of 1.72 advantages (faster BT binding, greater performance, no good CT and so on)

Everything seems to work fine...
But now it's very important to have phone app, calc app, WMP and cam app setted to run in landscape mode.

I got the update from my service provider: O2 in the UK. It's the latest version available, at the moment. I don't need all the hassle of messing about with ROMs from other countries and providers. I'll wait until the next ROM is released by O2 for me. (Tomorrow.)

Well I guess the skins are not all we need to have them work in landscape mode. What we need are dll files who "teach" to app what skin to chose... :roll:

I have a sugestion for all of ya, I have SRS instaled on my mda II, and I like it, but don't ever set an alarm in landscape mode, my MDA was playing the stupid melody for quite a long before it stoped.
The reason is that there were no snoose an dismiss button.
Even a soft-reset won't help.
Maybe the action button, but mine stoped by itself.

QTEK 9000 (aka HTC Universal) - Q's

Hello all,
So I got me a QTEK 9000 with the following set:
ROM Version : 1.13.64 WWE
Radio Version : 1.03.00
Protocol Version :42.36.P8
Here's a few probs I have:
1.) I'm missing that darn BTIcon in my tray. Can anyone post a link to a CAB file enabling me to install the sucker?
2.) When applying the manual VGA tweak for 640X480 res I do not see the Windows Start icon or any other icon in the top bar besides time displayed on the top righthand side.
Please advice and/or provide BTIcon.CAB specifically for HTC Universal or QTEK 9000. I tried all the other options on this website already.
Thanks,
D
Aaah come on people. No one that can help me out here?
So no BT icon on settings/comms?

Hello Dream,
Thanks for the advice but in my opinion something as simple as a Bluetooth icon should be solveable without referting to a complete ROM change. Please advice.

thank you thank you thank you.
I am just curious, when you say BT icon, are you referring to the small icon on the tray that shows the connection for the phone, BT, WiFi, and All?
Hi,
Regarding your missing icons in VGA mode. The 96.dll files have been "signed" with a developers certificate (SDK) therefore you need to load the SDK certificate on to your system before these system resources will be permitted to operate.
There should be a file called SdkCerts.cab which you need to install first.
Please note that the use of the SDK certificates will pose a security risk to your system.

Orange Today Plugin

Hi guys,
I was trying different ROM's on my Universal today, to see what the different operators were offering. When I came across the Orange Today Plugin. I like the idea of it, but not the setup.
So, I was wondering if anyone here knew how to add, remove, or change the items in this plugin ?
I did a little search of the forum for an answer to this question, but it seems i'm looking to do the opposite to what everyone else is doing.
re
could u be more specific...
In this screen dump, you can see the plugin.
I'd like to be able to change the selections and the links in each selection.
For example, change the five links in the Web selection of the screen dump to five of my own URL's.
Or better still, add or replace one of the selections in the plugin with one that points to My Device. That when highlighted would have links to 'My Docs' 'SD Card' 'Program Files' etc.
I hope that makes sence.
I'm searching the same solution.
I'm searching the same solution.
Hi filippodisvevia,
I fonud how to change the URL's, but not the sections.
Look in your Windows folder for a file called Full_one.xml, the URL's are at the top and the link names are near the bottom.
Good luck :wink:
thnx

I haven't Full_One.xml
I use only the plug-in extracted by the orange rom.
Some other ideas ?

Hi cudo,
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=61711&highlight=today+plugi+orange you can file the cab e some other file.
I'd like to personalize the cab if I understand how it work.
It works on qtek 9000\jasjar\xdaexec so I think is good for t-mobile too.
Hi Guys,
That plugin is from the SPV M3100 and works diferently to the Universal version. See my post at the bottom of that link above.
If you want the proper Universal Today Plugin with bigger icons for the Universals bigger screen. You'll have to install the Orange M5000 ROM, as its built into it. Plus the Orange ROM has just been updated with a new Radio driver.
I'm using the new Orange ROM, with the last O2 Ext ROM, and the Signed_ORUK_HomeScreenReg.sa.CAB from the Orange Ext ROM as it has the Reg settings for the plugin. And everything is working great. 8)

Hi people,
This thread is more usefull if you are looking for a cab file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=61711&highlight=
I installed the cab posted and works fine on my wizard. Although u do lose all your other today plugin functionality. But the plugin is handy. even though limited in use.
I was thinking of finding some great developers on this site who would like to creat such a program but which could be used alongside the other today plugins. Anyone interested let me know.
Cheers,
Shah
What do you mean "finding some great developers"?
@filippodisvevia,
Heres the CAB file, but it ONLY works with the Orange ROMs. As the files needed aren't in the other ROM's.
@gtm55,
You need the Orange ROM installed before the CAB file will work.

Great or good developers. Who are able to program such a plugin. because u have beginner programmers, novice programmers, and advanced programmers and if you like great programmers.
Just to keep it simple a person or persons who are able to create such a apps, which is usable in different WM phone devices. I just used great, because I know there are some pretty great (good) programmers on this site.

Thank you, ZaForD, I really like Orange plug-in, but I'll stay with T-mobile (1.30.115 WWE).

Well,its just another custom build wm6 Rom without any ipl/spl included in it,it looks safe though,but I can't assure you of its trust worthiness,as I have never used rom from this site.But you'll have to get your phone CID unlocked first to upgrade to any wm6 rom.Instead of this Rom,You can find many latest custom build wm6 and wm6.1 excellent roms here in this forum,which are trustworthy.
thanks.
do you know where i can find a program that can unlock my cid?
and im searching for a wm6 with touchflo, do the wm6.1 that is here includes it?
Actually, you can install touchflo on any ROM - even on your current WM5 - the program you need is called ftouchflo. I guess it stands for "fake touchflo", since touchflo itself is HTC's driver/software placed in their touch/touch dual/polaris phones, and what ftouchflo does is emulating the behaviour of HTC's touchflo.
So, just search the forum for ftouchflo, and install its cab (make sure you get the latest version - 1.4.1).
You'll also want to install the ftouchflo configuration tool (should pop up when searching for ftouchflo).
With these two apps you'll have the system-wide finger scrolling and left/right/up/down gestures support plus ability to easily configure gestures and exclude programs from ftouchflo scrolling (stuff that has its own finger scrolling or gesture support - like pocketCM)
Efrost, creator of touchflo also released a much more powerful and more configurable version of it, called ftouchSL, but this one's a commercial app, not freeware.
And if you want the cube launcher, like the one on Touch phones, search for SCLPC++ - you don't need it embedded in your ROM as well and can install it on pretty much anything running WM5 or higher OS.
So, my advice to you is to first get to know the software and see if you actually like it. It's easier to install it into OS that doesn't include it, than remove it from ROM
thank you about the reply.
about the SCLPC++ i had it but it had some bugs like the menu disapeared so i delete it.
About the ftouchflo i will try to find it, but also i want to upgrade to wm6 so if i can do it, and put touchflo at the same time.. why not?.

does someone know where can I find a program that will unlock my CID?

6.0, 6.1 or 6.5 on a Elf

Hello,
first i´m sorry for mistakes in this thread, i´ll do my best to write in english ^^
After 2 Years of using a Symbian Phone, i´ll get a HTC Elf tomorrow and since the era of my BlueAngel i´m here again
Now i have seen, that it´s possible to install the new WM Editions on the Elf and there are a lot of them. My quetion is now which one is the best for the ELF ? 6.0, 6.1, 6.5 and are there German Roms too ?
I think the process to flash the HTC is the same like before but for this i use the search if i have found my favorite Rom ^^
hope you can help me

Greetings DaReelRingo!
Welcome back with Windows Mobile.
Yeah, there is some german ROMS available around this place.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=374
Check out the 2nd and 3rd page, there is some german built roms.
--
And of course, if you want a ROM which is very looked after on.
Check out one of the most popular ROMS at this area, The ONYX Rom, it covers from 6.1 to 6.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540
And if you want to have German on it, please check out the language packs (Located near the downloading links).
Have A Great Weekend,
Jeremy
thanks for the answer and the greetings jeremy
i think i test the 6.5 onyx Beta tomorrow... it looks great and i think in combination with Manila2D its nearly perfect.
Hey!
6.5 with Manilla2D really lags.
Just use the default titanium screen will be great.
6.5 is still in beta, you will have lots of issues.
Try his stable 6.1 ROMs first, Onyx Ultimate 4.6.
If ultimate lags, try onyx jr 4.6
Have Fun!
Jeremy
thanks for the advice.
now i have Onyx 4.4.3 Ultimate (WM6.1) running on my Elf and most of it is german. but there are two more questions.
Is there a M2D Tab for RSS News ? because the normal RSS Reader are not "touch" friendly ^^ and the second question is about the internet connection. I Have no data Flatrate at the moment so the Weather and and Internet Tab (maybe the RSS Plugin) Have to use the Wireless Lan connection . Is it possible to configure the Tabs that they only use W-Lan and not GPRS ?
Greetz and a happy day/night
Rigo
Solution: nodata
Hi Rigo,
you could try "nodata" which is a programm that lets you enable and disable GPRS profiles. You can use this link: http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility-nodata/ or in case that link does not work use google to find "nodata".
Cheers,
Michael
Edit: This programm will of course disable GPRS for all programs until you enable GPRS again.
Sorry, no M2D for RSS.
and yes, you can disable your GPRS using these simple settings, without an application !
Start->Settings->Connections (Tab)->Connections->advanced(tab)->Select Networks-> under the " Programs that ... to the internet .. " -> Choose My work network and click on ok to save.
Assuming you got no work network active, which I dont think it will exist.
And that, will allow your mms to work too.
