any solutions?!!??!?!?
hmm ok... fixed it by goind through the registry and deleting the SOUND as string and creating new SOUND as dword... that worked... :roll: oh man, what a hassle.
on the other hand::: your tweaks seem to be very interesting :wink: good work, keep it up!
Dear matt_x,
After your experience i have rechecked the hacks for phone keys and there is no problem in my device... Let me advise you;first install this hacks and then a soft reset should be a good way...

You should put them in the memory cord of your phone, then click them from there.
The .CAB files should be installed FROM THE PHONE.
goodluck
Hey great work with the hacks
Thanx for sharing
Used the Soft Key app & it works great. cheers.
Problem sorted
Or some reason when I was downloading the files they were changing to .php not .cab. So with a quick change of name all working fine.
Anyone know how to change internet explorer reg back to original settings?
cheers
Dear yohanson,
Most of the tweaks for pocket ie can be easily changable within pocket ie by options menu...
Regards and thanks...
protochip,
great works !!! thanks for the "compilation"
Manage to installed :
DSP ENCHANCER -BASS&TREBLE SETTINGS
* Works very well.
SHOW CONTACTS FIRST NAME SURNAME ORDER
* Works very well.
POCKET IE TWEAKS
* Can't find where to do the changes. Unable to find the new setting in IE menu.
cheers,
Simon
brilliant
Dear simontee,
After applying pocket ie hacks there will be no new menu.I meant that if you want to go back,you can change some of the tweaks within pocket ie.For example you can change the zoom setting to larger or make fit to desktop from the menu of pocket ie.But other tweaks are directly written to registry ( cleartype, pocket ie as msie6.0, ... )
Regards and thanks...
Nice work will give them a try on my BA...
protochip...
thks for replying.... great works !!! keep it up !!!

LOCKisabled
RST: Reset
Hi,i think you must keep all theses files because if you have a little problem with your spv, Orange doesn't take guarantee on devices modified.
Most files already show what they do:
Extended_ROM\MP-Shortcut-MMS1-JAVA5XX-CV-VOICE-PVPLAYER-Orange-WWE-051208.CAB
Adds MMS, Java and PVPlayer
Extended_ROM\MP_Customization_OrangeUK_Prophet_060119.CAB
Orange customizations for the Prophet
Extended_ROM\MP_SmartDialing_enable_050915_signed.CAB
Enables smart dialing on the dial pad
Extended_ROM\PP_Certificate_OR_Jan23_Wizard.cab
Trusted certificats according to Orange
Extended_ROM\PP_DisconnectButton_8.CAB
When holding the red button it disconnects the GPRS connection
Extended_ROM\PP_EnableEdgeIcon_1_PRO.CAB
Enables Edge Icon, like the icon indicator on the htc wizard when you use symbols or caps
Extended_ROM\PP_GPRS_CSD_type.CAB
GPRS settings
Extended_ROM\PP_OrangeTSK_ORA_PRO_21001103.CAB
Orange theme settings, I think
Extended_ROM\PP_ORUK_pIE_Setting_21001107.CAB
Internet settings for Orange UK
Extended_ROM\PP_ORUK_RingTone.CAB
installes Orange ringtones
Extended_ROM\PT_RemoveHTCBatteryIcon_PRO.CAB
removes the battery from the system tray, not the taskbar!
Extended_ROM\PT_ScreenRotate_2.13_PRO_20501101.CAB
places the screen rotation icon on the system tray
EXEC:\Extended_ROM\cusTSK.exe \Windows\Orange2006.tsk
installes the Orange theme
These are a few I know...
If you don't want to use the extended ROM you can perform a hard reset. After that you have to follow the welcome wizard. after finnishing this it wil show you that it will start customizing your device, this is the point where you have to soft reset you Prophet. Now the Extended ROM won't be installed.
-=-=HARD RESET EREASES ALL DATA!!! So backup first!=-=-
How does one view andmodify the extended rom? I have used theabove method to have it not install on the system, is there a way however to install individual items from the ext rom?
You can use Total Commander to view the extenden ROM and install each file seperatly. Just type: "Extended_ROM" in the address bar.
When you want to edit the Extended ROM I advise you to use the search. There is enough information in the Wizard section about this.
You don't need any of the orange cab files for the phone to work. However, you will probably want some of them. Here's what I have figured out as to what they all do:-
*MP-Shortcut-MMS1-JAVA5XX-CV-VOICE-PVPLAYER-Orange-WWE-051208.CAB
*MP_Customization_OrangeUK_Prophet_060119.CAB - adds MMS settings, default file associations

I want the sidebar which I know is part of this file which is "...UK_BUILD_..._CLOCK.CAB"
It is always there in other ROM. I installed it but it is not for hermes so it is a bit different and also sometimes the sidebar works well sometimes not.
Thanks for the Quick response. Please also give me the latest "...OrangeTSK....CAB"
Hi all since I'm using WM6 I like the HTC Home Plugin but it drain a lof of resources so I draw a simple rlToday skin wich is like first one
- This skin do not need mortscript
- You need only rToday plugin and a font to be installed
(also you can update skin.xml to use system fonts)
How to install:
1) unzip the skin and copy the folder under \Program Files\rlToday
2) copy *.ttf to \Windows\Fonts
3) enable this skin in rlToday plugin via Setting\Today from start menu
Note:
* If you like to change the clock font remember to adjust XY coord
* You can choose to show current operator or cell broadcast message by updating the XML with these registry paths:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone\Current Operator Name
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone\Cell Broadcast
Change log:
20070805
- Fixed hour digit X coord
- Added the current CELL Broadcast message
Thanks you all forum.xda
Cell Broadcast Messages?
Thanks.. I have modified the applications since most of them are different on my 6828. + added Last Incoming Call line as well. Do you have any idea whether rlToday supports Cell Broadcast Messages?
whawhawha...héhé...nice job
I go to try !
is there a formula to make this 240x240 compatible? or it's just trial and error?
There is a complete documentation for rlToday here
Worth reading it
The front of the phone has a beautiful high quality metal finish, at the bottom we have the phone end and send buttons, the end button also doubles up as the home button, a Windows key which is a requirement for future devices that will support Windows Mobile 6.5 and a back button. Above the keys you can see the zoom slider, this is a touch sensitive panel that you slide your finger along to zoom in and out of pictures and web pages.
Hello, i was looking for a standalone backlight manager to use in ultimate launch ( with cycling ) and i've found this great stuff on 4pda.ru but unfortunately it's all in russian. I've manage to make it work well on my trinity but i'can't understand all the options and there's no .ini nor lang.text to edit. Some help is welcome for the translation, even if you don't translate the program i would like a russian helper that can list all the options (would be perfect with screenshots). thanks a lot for viewing perhaps helping !!!
P.S. :sorry for english, when you read my posts you know i'm french ; )

Your program is really perfect MalVal, I was looking for a stuff like that for a month, really happy that the Dev himself answer me. The torch, the cycling function, the today plugin, the fact that it's multiplatform, nice work. Do you have made other progs ?
Yes. MVBalance. It dysplays remained money in your mobile on today.
But it have only russian interface, and i think it will be difficult to adjust it.
Hi MalVal,
Did you have a short tuto ? How does it works, I launch it, change langage, but did not understand how to make it works!
Thanks for your help
Universal backlight manager MVBklight.
Features:
- System WM2003, WM5/WM6, qVGA, VGA.
- Control of backlight from the today (joystick: right - increases, left - decrease, central button - the settings menu, up / down go to next plugin).
- Popup with backlight regulator (joystick: to the right/up - increases, to the left/down - decrease, closing by the central button).
- Set and get of backlight from a command line (the example, ‘ Cmd 244 ’ - set new, Cmd - returns current).
- Increase/decrease of backlight from a command line (the example, ‘ Cmd + ’ - increases, ‘ Cmd - ‘ - reduces).
- Switch backlight from max to min and back ('Cmd m').
- Cycle change of backlight through Cmd.
Cmd 2 5 7 10 on a circle changes values. If was < 2 sets 2, if < 5 sets 5, ..., if >= 10 sets 2.
Similarly with decrease, Cmd 10 7 5 2 - if was more than 10 sets 10 if > 7 sets 7, ... if <= 2 sets 10.
- Switch on of the necessary backlight at connection to an external power (only if plugin is active) and switch back to battery backlight.
- The torch mode, switch on the maximum backlight and the white fullscreen (Torch.exe in a program folder).
- Settings of colors.
- Support of skin (32-bits RGBA bmp).
- Various kinds of sliders (without skins ).
- Display of backlight value by number or in percentage.
- Possibility of manual input of dwIoControlCode codes (see DeviceIoControl in MSDN) and the registry keys which are responsible for set and get of current value of backlight (these codes and keys differ from a device to device).
Installation:
1. Install the cab in the main memory (not on storage)
2. Start from Start-up-> Programs-> MVBklight or from explorer \Program Files\MalVal\MVBklight\Cfg.exe, make settings.
3. In the same place, in settings switch on a plugin.
Settings:
1. At the first start in line "Settings for" there will be a name of your PDA and will be established default settings for it. If default settings does not work, we can manually adjust it.
2. In the field "Type" choose your PDA type.
Input section, branch and keys of registry in which current values of backlight are stored (Battery and power). For many PDA - HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight, ACBrightness and Brightness.
They can be looked in the registry (corresponding values vary after backlight change by a built-in regulator). In the same place it is possible to find the maximum and minimum.
3. For WM5/WM6 it is necessary to enter corresponding sexadecimal codes DeviceIoControl.
4. Specify a skin folder. There should be four 32-bit bitmas with an alpha-channel (folders should be in a plugin folder).
To find out backlight settings for each concrete device, it is necessary:
1. Find out what file with exptention dll, cpl or any is responsible for backlight on this device (means backlight adjustment through the menu Settings-> System-> Backlight or Brightness ).
Usually this file is in a windows folder and has a certain speaking name of type COMBacklight.dll (on ETEN).
As a last resort, it is necessary to investigate all files suspected on backlight control.
2. It is necessary to copy these files on PC.
3. Then we use IDAPro to disassemble it and try to find options needed.
There are some known settings in attach (my database).
PS. Sorry for my english .
Hi MalVal,
your app did sound so sweet ;-) but unfortunately is does not work on my Artemis.
The slider shows up - but it does not change the brightness no matter what I do.
A couple of observations:
it shows Arte20000 instead of Arte200 and this name is fixed
for device type it says WM2003 but it should read WM6.1 or at least WM6
most of the settings for registry are greyed out and not changable
Might be that the problems come from my Rom being modified ?
Best regards,
mst
Hi MalVal,
Same issue for as mst46. I'm using your soft with Artemis PDA and "ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.01 WM6.1 WWE ROM".
As previously mentioned, only ARTE10000 is proposed and no way to modify other fields as they are "greyed".
BUT, it seems that is it because of the english translation you quickly done. I try removing the cfg.exe.mui file you provide, and then relaunch conf, then, even if written in a langage I cannot understand (russian ?), it is possible to select another item than "ARTE10000" and then are able to edit the following fields.
I try to select WM5/WM6, then HKCU, then ControlPanel\backlight, then Brightness, then ACBrightness, but seems that it has no effect. Difficult to o further when don't know what are the files editing
Could you take a look at it ? Thanks for your support.
Same thing happens with ipaq hx2490b. The device name is correct, the OS appears as WM2003(I haveWM6.1), and other options are greyed.
If default settings does not work, you can manually setup it :
1. Set manual in field Settings for
and restsart Cfg.exe. All fields become accessible.
2. see post above.
Known codes for some HTC:
HTC Hermes, НТС Х7500:
Codes: Pwr - 0x220010, Bat - 0x220018
HTC 4350 Herald:
HTC P3300:
HTC 3400 :
Pwr – 0x8, Bat – 0x7
Registry: HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight, ACBrightness and Brightness
HTC Wizard:
0x2
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight, ACBrightness, Brightness
iPaq 3715:
Battery – 0x7, Power – 0x8
Registry the same
You can try these. If it does not help, it is necessary to analyze built-in backight manager with IDA.
Hi Malval,
I've been able to make it work with the parameters you provides for my P3300.
But there is still a problem with the translation file I belive.
I first install the Cab, then replace the cfg.exe plus the cfg.exe.mui file with the one you provide in the early post.
When running the conf, it is possbile to have it in english, but it was not possible to select something else than ARTE10000 in the second field (settings for) of the system tab. The "manual" option is not available!
In order to make it works, I remove the cfg.exe.mui file, and relaunch the conf. Then all messages come back to russian, but in the second field of system (settings for I belive it is writen in russian), I was able to select something else than ARTE10000 and I've been able to access following fields (they are no more greyed).
Once the "manual" field selected, I exit the conf, and replace the conf.exe.mui file and I've been able to see what are the fields I was modifying as the langage come back to english.
But, in the "Settings for" field, it is written "(null)", and opening the drop down box, only ARTE10000 is available.
I hope it can helps you in order to modify your code to fix this minor bug.
For those who follow the instruction I gives, and having a P3300 running "ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.01 WM6.1 WWE ROM", I set a "Maximum value" to 4 otherwise you will have a surpise of a blank screen if seting a higher values.
Regards
Hi, JBT1.
Thanks for bag.
I've upload a new one. In the same post. Check it.
I've also add mui for plagin.
In the next release i'll add all files in one cab-file and i'll update database to support artemis.
Hi Malval,
Sounds good this time. Manual is available now in the settings and today plugin menu is in english.
Thank you for this great application.
I have an issue now with the assignement of a button with your popup application. I assign it to the button 6, and it works fine except when running TomTom! If running Tomtom and hitting button 6, it call the default assignment who is the Voice speed dial! I beleive it is a Rom or Tomtom issue.
Will look forward for your next rev
Thank you
I tried it on my Kaiser.
Hanging when changing the backlight.
Working great now on my Artemis. Great tool .
Thank you MalVal !

Can someone post a screenshot of what the actual today plug in will look like? Been trying to get it to work on my kaiser but not having any luck
mattarse, romualdrichard!
I need more information, what is the problem.
Screenshot.
More screenshots in attach. I hope it enough.
please do you have more screenshots of this program?
The backlight doesn't change at all. Im on a kaiser with duttys newest 6.1 rom.
If I leave it set for kaiser it is stuck on WM2003, but changing it to manual and setting it for Wm2005/2006 doesn't help either.
I assume the problem is in one of the other settings, but I reallydon't know what to test.
Any help you can give would be appreciated, I've been looking for a program like this for awhile.
Hi there, I use quickmenu which is like the best program ever for ppc, but I can't find a way to add a wifi toggle to the quickmenu. Currently I have to go into settings->communications-comm manager and then turn on/off wifi which is very annoying!
Any way to add it to the list?
I use spb panel which does not have the wifi on/off toggle like the today screen.
THANKS!
phone alarm from pocketmax.net will do the tricks.
Or use pdaStatus which is a today plug-in, a screenshot in my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459241&page=8
I use SPB Phone Today plugin... has made it ultimately easy! Can toggle all connections from it including bluetooth and wifi.
Try WirelessToday.cab; is shows you your Operator, BT status and WiFi status.
When you touch the today-item it will bring you to the comm manager.
Thanks, but I use the spb panel instead of today screen.
I assigned the left key button to comm manager for easy access.
attached is what you're looking for
I use this one to quick access to Wifi on/off http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442727
check my new application, it is created to automatically control wifi and BT based on where you are. it might help you
