Bluetooth Device Name

Is there a way to configure the device name.? By default it uses the owner's name and I would rather use something different.

I think its on Settings > About > Device ID. Be warned though as I changed mine and then Active Sync didnt recognise it and only linked as a guest.....had to change it back.

PS I knew Batman would use an Exec, yet another cool gadget for him :wink:

Thinks for your quick response. This forum is great.
P.S. I've gone by Batman for years now and yes I do love these gadgets.... :lol:

The Bluetooth device name is indeed initially taken from the value you put into "Owner Name", but once set it can be changed and is not dependent upon the two being identical. You can override the bluetooth value by a registry hack.
In the registry, you'll find an entry like the following:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Settings]
"LocalName"="Fred Bloggs"
You can use a registry file merge to modify this. For example:
====== Reg file entry begins below =======
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Settings]
"LocalName"="O2 Xda Exec"
====== Reg file ends above here =======
You will need to soft-reset and then re-search for Bluetooth devices on your PC/laptop for the change to be noticed.

Invalid registry Entry

hello to everyone, I am "brand" new to this site, therefore forgive me if I am in the wrong space to ask the following.....
I own an Imate JasJar WM5. I had a first one a week ago. Open it, brand new, charge it, canceled skype and Ca antivirus ( useless) installed SK tools to monitor and better manage the overall performance of the device and found under the folder Invalid Registry Entry a huge number of strings...very strange indeed, well, whatever it was the device couldn start up after few hours pf usage therefore I brought it back to the shop and got a new one... I THOUGHT ALL THOSE REG ENTRY WERE the cause of the device problem..opened the new one, charged it, unistalled and spoft reset again skipe and Ca antivirus, instalòled SK tools and have seen the same huge numbers of invalid reg entry...The device this time works well, no prob at all...SO FAR.. I have it for 2 days, so it is early to say but what really annoys me and WORRIES me are all these strings which I will post (few of them ) here below to see if anyone can explain me what they are, what do they mean in practical terms , if I have to consider the device again "broken" or gonnabebrokensoon, ....what leave me suspicious is that the same things happened with 2 new devices.
here are the strings and the messages copied from SK tools..thank you to anyone for his help or suggestions:

Reg edits for Wing

I can't seem to locate the process / program I would need to be able to do Registry Edits on my wing. There is some cool stuff I would like to do like move my temp folder to my mSD card and so forth. However, I can't seem to find the way to view / edit the registry.
Would anyone like to help me out?

Advanced Configuration Tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1367082&postcount=1
This handles all the major regedits in a nice user interface. I would recommend this over manually changing regedits. But to answer you question Total Commander will work great for free.

there seems to be a bunch of cool stuff in the packet you sent me. Thanks.
the one thing I was really looking for that is not in those cabs in the is basically the following.
Registry: HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone
Key: ShowSim (dWord)
Default: 1 (show)
New Value: 0 (hide)
I have no freaking idea how to do this on my phone. I have total commander and Reglogger both installed and they appear like jibberish. do i need to export something, bring it onto my pc and then import it back? I can't actually FIND the reg stings in either of those programs.
I dont mean to unload or anything, but I have modded PSP's / iphones / hacked my xbox. all kinds of stuff like this, but I have never had something just completely STUMP me like this before.
*cheers to the noob in me*

dear gold almight i found the wiki
and now things in the lines of RegEdits seem to be moving along smooth sailing.
Thank you for the help

All about Microsoft Voice Command (MSVC) on Topaz with WM6.5

I'll start this thread to share my knowledge aquired after many hours of testing regarding the registry settings of Microsoft Voice Command on Topaz with WM6.5 ROM from HTC although the settings may be applicable to other cooked ROM's and phone models.
First of all, I don't know why but different versions of MSVC are installed with different registry settings so I will only talk of the final result. These characters "" do not need to be completed.
Here comes the tricky part. To make MSVC work you need to alter the following registry settings:
HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand
Type: String
"Path" = "\Windows\VoiceCmd.exe"
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring
Type: Dword
(BE CAREFUL HERE, IF IT'S A STRING, YOU NEED TO FIRST DELETE THE STRING AND CREATE A DWORD WITH THE FOLLOWING VALUES)
"AttenuationCategory" = "2" (it's the setting I'm using)
(This value can be changed. It tells how much the ringtone is reduced for the voice to be heard)
The rest of the values here do not need to be altered.
Next is:
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\VoiceCommand1
Type: Dword
(SAME HERE, IF IT'S A STRING, YOU NEED TO FIRST DELETE THE STRING AND CREATE A DWORD WITH THE FOLLOWING VALUES)
"AttenuationCategory" = "5" (it's the setting I'm using)
(This value can be changed. It tells how loud the voice in call announcements can be 1 TO 5 1=low 5=high)
The rest of the values here do not need to be altered.
Make sure that the following location's are set to:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Type:String
"Category" = "Ring"
and:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce
Type:String
"Category" = "VoiceCommand1"
Type: String
"Sound" = "\Application Data\Volatile\\TTSCallerID.wav
The rest of the values here do not need to be altered.
Do not forget to set your MSVC to announce incoming calls and to announce notifications using Bluetooth hands free if available.
If you want to assign the long call button from the phone to launch MSVC without a third party software then assign it from the personal folder in settings then edit the following registry key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C6
Type: String
"" = "\windows\voicecmd.exe\" (THE LAST SLASH IS CRITICAL, SO USE IT)
Leave the rest the way they are.
This are the settings for which dll should be used to initiate bluetooth communication: BTAGTEXT.DLL , VCBTHAG.DLL (it's installed by MSVC and this is the one you should use) and OEMAGW.DLL.
You should have something like this:
ex:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway
Type: String
"BTAGExtModule" = "\windows\vcbthag.dll"
If you want to use your wired headset to launch your MSVC then you need to long press the hang up button.
This setting were tested on the updated WM6.5 ROM from HTC website with MSVC version 1.6.21040 which works perfectly and 1.6.21725 which also works fine except for bluetooth voice command initialization from hands-free which does not work because I don't know why this version of MSVC closes the communication between phone and hands-free.
And last you should set you phone to not use single volume, if you do, the volume of the voice will be reduced with the ringtone, if you set them separately the voice will be spoken out loud even if you reduce the ringtone volume or system volume.
I hope this helps most of you out there who are desperatly trying to use MSVC and don't know how to set it to work the way it was supposed to.
P.S. For those who are trying to get the WWE eastern european 6.5 ROM (ex. Hungaria, Romania, etc), you can get it from HTC selecting in the country selection Ceska Republic. I don't know why but seems that other countries are not updated in the ROM section.

Hi,
I will add this to the MS Voice configger app i have set up.
Thanks for this!

You're welcome
It was my pleasure, I'm glad that someone will be able to use it and not to go through the same hardship as I did.

Dword v.s. String
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce
Type: Dword
"Category" = "VoiceCommand1"
In the HKCU key you mentoned above, My type in the phone showed a string, not Dword. And it seems I can't add new Dword "string" after deleting the string type.
Anything I missed?

Sorry, my mistake, I will edit it, it should be a string there.

Hi guys,
For the longest time after I upgraded my ROM, MSVC has stopped making incoming caller announcements. Everything else works, it just wouldn't make call announcement when a call comes in. Not on speaker, not on BT. I tried everything and it still didn't work.
I came across this thread and I tweaked the registry. As soon as I changed
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Category from "VoiceCommand1" to "Ring", then incoming call announcement worked for me!!
So i was pretty happy about it, except it only worked for a few days. The last couple days it's stopped working again.
Taking a closer look at the registry I realize what I have is identical to what's posted here, except for -
HKCY/Control Panel/Sounds/TTSAnnounce/Sound
Instead of "\Application data\Volatile\\TTSCallerID.wav" I have "\Internal Storage\Backup and Restore\Application data\Volatile\\TTSCallerID.wav"
I guess it's a case where my ROM moves all volatile files from main memory to internal storage (like a SD card ... I use TouchDiamond1 which uses internal storage instead of SD card).
When I look at that folder, a TTSCallerID.wav file IS indeed generated everytime I make a call to my phone! It is just for whatever reason it fails to play that file!!
Has anybody experienced this? Can anyone help?

Voice Command Problem
Do you use some tweaking programs which could move the temporary folders from the main memory to the storage card or a custom rom which could be tweaked that way? As long as I now, you cannot move the location in which voice command writes his voice file as it is generated within the program.

Strange enough, call announce works after I made the following changes:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Category
Change from "VoiceCommand1" to "Ring"
That's different from what's reported on the 1st post, but it seems to work for my phone .... ??!?!
As for moving the volatile folder to internal storage ... it's a feature of my ROM (DiaDuit 1.6.7) ... the ROM automatically does that, even if I put files inside \Application\Volatile\ it moves them to the storage automatically. But everything seems to work fine, including MSVC after I made the above registry tweaks ... so I guess that wasn't the culprit.

Hi,
So I update the config app to version 1.2.
The above mentioned registry fix was already in the config app.

[Q] Enabling and locking Timestamps to photos?

Hi, I'm new to XDA Developers but have been using as a valuable resource over the past few months.
We have a HTC Touch Pro 2 device (WM6.5) that we provide support for to a number of personnel. The client have requested that we change the device settings so that photos have the timestamp applied and secondly that it not be possible to take it off again.
Since we have somewhere in the region of 600 devices to update, we'll need to do this via a registry change through our updates service. Try as I might though, I can not find the setting to do either of these. I have searched on here and google and can't find the answer. Has anyone done this before?
Thanks in advance.

I've been doing some digging on this and found a registry key under
HKEY_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\Image
called 'enableStamp'. However, when I change this on Visual Studio 2005 remote registry tool, it doesn't seem to make any difference on the phone, the menu option stays the same. Likewise, the menu doesn't seem to change the registry which leads me to think it's another setting someplace or the settings are stored elsewhere.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I've finally made a breakthrough on this. I had to export the entire registry, change the value, export the registry again and compare the files. I found that this value
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Camera\6.16\Preferences
contains a large Hex value string and found that change a value that was 48 (timestamp off) to C8 (timestamp on) was reflected on the device. This string seems to have a lot of values so I'm assuming they are all to do with options selected in the camera menu. I just hope one of them is to disable the timestamp option now. I've posted this here in the hope it helps someone else.
