HTCHomeplug

Has anyone tried to play with the HTCHomePlug today page plug in? I have observed the following:
Registry entry at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHomeplug\
2,3,4 are used. 4 is used by the HTC Connect.
The keys for each are:
iconindex - decimal
ResPath - file containing the icon
LaunchApPath - application executable
examples are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHomeplug\4]
"iconindex" = Decimal:"0"
"ResPath" = "\windows\iexplore.exe"
"LaunchApPath" = "\windows\iexplore.exe"
I have tried wmplayer.exe and fexplore.exe and all worked.
Seems that the maximum number is 6. 7 onwards are ignored?
The icon for iexplore and wmplayer at index 0 do not look very nice. iexplore's is great.

[Bluetooth settings] Where is the executable for BT settings

Hi all,
I want to put an icon on my Resco today plugin which launch the bluetooth settings.
Where is the .exe ?
In \windows\, nothing except btlauncher.exe and nothing appear when I click on it.
Any idea ?

the bluetooth settings reside in a file called cplmain.cpl then you just add ,23 for bluetooth all settings are in this file
eg. windows/cplmain.cpl,23 wisbar advance desktop can create a shortcut to this executable i dont know about any other program. here is a full list of cpl commands
Wisbar shortcut list P3600/M700
New>shortcut. Select your windows folder and show all files. Select "cplmain.cpl". Now as your shortcut add a
comma after the period followed by a number. As Shown: (I am not sure the exact number) You would type
"cplmain.cpl,6" without the ". The numbers usually range from 1 - 13, check them all out as they also open up
brightness,
e-backup,, etc.
1 = lock (password)
2 - Owner info
3 = Power
4 = Memory
5 = About
6 = ?
7 = Screen settings (rotate etc..)
8 = Input
9 = Sounds & notifications
10= Remove Programs
11= Menus
12= Buttons
13= Today
14= ?
15= Beam
16= Clocks & alarms
17= WIFI Config
18= Regional settings
19= Connections
20= Phone settings
21= ?
22= Manage certificates
23= Bluetooth settings
24= Error reporting
25= GPS settings
26= Comm manager

Argghh
This tip is not allowed in Resco today, I can't modify a shortcut by adding specific parameters and I can't create a shortcut of cplmain.cpl,23.
Maybe I shall use wisbar advance desktop...
thx for your help.

adding icons to HTChomePlug

I technically know how to add icons to the htchomeplug i just don't know how to change the icon
hklm\software\htc\htchomplug\*add new key*
my problem is the iconindex number, which seems to control the icon. when i change it to a different number the icon disappears but if you click over the area where the icon was the program will still launch.

You can use RViewer (google it, don't remember where I found it), or just go with 0.
This is mentioned in the "original post" on the HTChomeplug modifications.

thanks for the help
HTC HOMEPLUG
First is access using the registry editor to this entry:
/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/HTCHomeplug
There is the configuration of the plugin. There we will find two entries pointing to the first two icons (Battery and Rotation) that seems to be configured in a different way that the rest of the icons. Those are the two DWORD entries:
PowerIconSlot with value of 0 (this means the first position in the plugin)
RotateIconSlot with value of 1 (this means the second position)
The rest of the positions in the HTCHomeplug appears like KEY entries with names from 2 to 5 meaning positions 3 to 6 in the plugin bar.
Inside each key (2 to 5) we find 3 values (or entries):
1- iconindex DWORD type of Decimal which contains 103 in the case of entry KEY 2
** I used a program called RViewer (for PPC) develop by Vicott Wong to find the iconindex**
2- LaunchApPath STRING contains the path to the executable file associated to the icon
3- ResPath STRING contais the path to the resource file which contais the icon image poited by iconindex entry. This path points to a DLL or EXE file containing the icon image.
So... since we want to add a icon/application we need to create the entry KEY 6 and we must create both STRING entries and DWORD one inside the KEY 6.
To add Tomtom Navigator in the HTCHomeplug (as an example) I added:
iconindex = 101
LaunchApPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe
ResPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe
So I'm using the icon storaged in the Tomtom Navigator executable file itself and my Tomtom is in the path I show in the entry. Off course this could not match your installation.

Im trying to find a good phone icon!
I havent found ANY simple phone icon in any resource yet.
Does anybody have a filename/index for a phone icon? Or even an exe/dll with a good phone icon I can use?

[Guide] How to create .LNK files and use parameters

Due to the increasing amount of requests bulking up other threads, regarding how to make and use parameters I'm starting this thread with all the info at the begining, and I'll link it in my signature.
I make no claim to have discovered all of them.
I hereby present my collection gathered (copy & paste mostly) from this and other sites.
How to create .LNK files and use parameters
HOW TO CREATE SHORTCUTS ON YOUR PPC, NOT ON THE PC AND THEN TRANSFER THEM-
1-Don't use the inbuilt file explorer. use gsfinder, or total commander etc. The inbuilt file explorer can't edit links or show file extensions - if you try to rename something to xxx.LNK, it will really be xxx.lnk.txt (or something)
2: Using the other file explorer, copy and paste a shortcut to ANY file/exe/.lnk you want.
3: Tap & hold on this new shortcut, select 'properties'.
4: in properties, write the address of the program you want the shortcut for. ie- program files\xxx.exe or windows\xxx.exe or ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,5 (the about screen)...
5: Ok/Close the properties, & rename the link to whatever you want leaving .LNK at the end
THE OTHER METHOD IS-
Again you'll need a different file explorer. Create a .TXT file with the content '#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,1' or '#' followed by the address , such as '#tmail.exe' (for example) then rename the file extension to .LNK In my tests a number before the # is NOT required.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES-
When creating using a .txt file the contents must start with a '#', if creating by editing the properties of an existing .lnk you do not need the '#' There are examples below of both methods, if it has a '#' it's the .txt method, if it is in quotes, it is the address as it would need to be in the properties of the .lnk file
It is NOT possible to open a link to the folder view you get by \start menu\programs unless you have folderview.exe in your windows folder, none of my 4 devices have that so I've not tested it. But you can open to folders with file explorer using, for example- "\program files\greensoftware\gsfinder.exe" windows\start menu\programs\games
There is NO shortcut to quickly dial a number, you would need to go through the 'confirm number page', or use 3rd party soft such as vijay555's
Edit: Quicker dialing shortcut found and added, still requires you to press 'Talk' after you run the .lnk though
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Available parameters for tmail.exe (depending on the service used) are- "tmail.exe" -new ""
"tmail.exe" -service ""
"tmail.exe" -to ""
"tmail.exe" -subject ""
"tmail.exe" -Body ""
"tmail.exe" -attach ""
"tmail.exe" -open "inbox"
"tmail.exe" -sync
or combinations of all such as-
"tmail.exe" -to "[email protected]" -subject "Photos" -Message "Hi, here is the picture" -attach "\my documents\my pictures\1.jpg"

You will also have PowerOffWarning.exe (long power press key) (and maybe others) in your windows folder renaming another .exe (such as device lock) and pasting into windows will result in the long press of the power key running that program instead of turning off your device.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To change the icon of the .lnk file.
Useful if you have several mail .lnks and would like to differentiate between, for example, Google and Hotmail. Or if you want to assign icons to .lnks for Mortscripts etc.
Icon sources can be .DLLs or .EXEs, not picture files, such as .PNGs. View the icons within these files using RViewer.
Change the file extension of the .lnk file to .txt, open it, you will see the address for the program, or what ever it is that you have linked to eg "program files\my program.exe" you need to append a "?" followed by the address of the icon you want to use, then ",-" then the number of the icon within the icon file you are using, the default icon is "000".
You will end up with "program files\my program.exe",?example.exe,-000
If you have any suggestions or corrections please post and I'll add them or edit this post.

Well that's a 20+ page thread of mostly questions. I can't easily link to it and say look at x, y or z page for the answer can I?
Also as is obvious by the posts in that thread and many others (my reason for this thread) is that most people don't bother reading the thread for the answer, here I have tried to put them all in the first post not over 258.
Secondly, my intention is to improve this thread by adding other 'noob' questions when I find them or think of them, to the first posts, for example how often do you see- 'how to install a .cab file?'? etc.
Basically add all the answers I keep writing in threads, even my signature was made so I could just say 'click it for what you want' (requests I used to read all the time).
Hopefully that answers your question?

hehe thats ok then

questions:
1. What parameters in tmail.exe to direct immediately to SMS INBOX?
I tried (tmail.exe -service "SMS" -open "Inbox") But if you happen to you outbox last, it opens outbox instead.
2. What parameters in notes.exe will change the default working directory? For example I want to use another folder named "my notes"
3. I tried MSNOTETAKE and it loads faster than plain notes.exe So what is MSNOTETAKE and MSINBOX? Can you list all the others?
thanks in advance.

If messaging is already open, running the .lnk will just 'show' whatever in/out/box is already open

Thanks a lot for the continuous collections and discoveries of these shortcuts, which could make great enhancemenent of WM unsing experiience.
Two additional requests though, will add up your heavy works, but will make this thread more perfect.
1. Coming from the experience of using Nanling's QuickMenu app, I assume that it is possible to associate those shortcuts for 'settings' with icons from some dll or exe file. Would you please find the way to do that and upgrade all settings shortcuts?
2. Would you please make all of them into a ready-to-use .lnk files and pack them up in a zip file, then attatch it on first post?
Just ignore my requests if you feel they are unreasonable.
Thanks again for your hard works.
Edit:
Found the shortcut for PowerOff (wiz & w/o icon) in this thread.
If rename any .lnk file to Long_Send.lnk and copy it to windows folder, the long-send button (press and hold the green phone button) will be assigned as the represented function of the .lnk file.

I don't know any link for the real settings pages, it's been discussed many times on here, if it's truely available someone will have posted it.
I'll get the zip file done soon, with all the universal links, ie no point me posting links to various email names etc.
I don't know if there is a link for power off button, but the long hold actions is 'powerOffWarning.exe' in the windows folder.
I have 4 different ppcs, the long hold functions are different in each one.

Sorry, I misread your question about file associations, but anyway, I don't know how to do it.
vijay555's vjFastOff (?) I think it's that name, will completely power off your ppc without having the confirmation dialogue.

Shortcut for poweroff:
_DrG_ said:
Ok had a little play with this, i can get the power off dialogue to appear from a shortcut using any one of the following commands and parameters in a .lnk file:
31#"\Windows\PowerOffWarning.exe", "PowerOff"
31#"\Windows\PowerOffWarning.exe" \ExitWindowsEX (EWX_POWEROFF, 0)
31#"\Windows\PowerOffWarning.exe" \ExitWindowsEX (EWX_SHUTDOWN, NULL)
31#"\Windows\PowerOffWarning.exe" \ExitWindowsEX
Not sure if any of this helps you guys out but i've attached an example, maybe some else will know a way to be able to bypass the yes/no prompt.....

But it's not complete,can anybody work out a completed list for this?

Hi,
Just compiled a long lasting annoyance of Control Panel shortcuts and matching icons (see attachement)
They work ok for wm2003 and higher.
Example:
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,0,0?shellres.dll,-13905
Note that the second ,0 is the number of the subpage
(Tab) of that settings page. 0 = first, 1 = second etc.
So making a text file called Kill.lnk with the line:
22#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,4,2?shellres.dll,-13900
gives you instant access to Running Programs.
Placing this link in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs you can
even put it under a button.
Note: subpages don't work if settingX is redirected in HKLM\ControlPanel\settingX with a "Redirect" value.
Have fun,
Tweakradje

The best Reg Edits

Hi Guys,
What do you think are the best registry edits on the TD2 and what do they do?
I have been looking through the old ones for the TD1 and i have been changing thinks like the GPS enable on the camera ETC.
Any good suggestions you might have to improve the TD2 experience would be gratefully appreciated

yah.like a compilation of regedits would be great along with its description

the only one I know if PHM regedit, it works fine with the D2

sk tools
sk tools...the best! cleanes , optimises,...the whole lot

i think he don't mean the best registry editor. He means the hack to do with the reg editor.

Dear All,
How to remove or delete the new key from PHM Registry Editor? Thank you.

Autolock
"Automatically lock your Diamond 2 (from way back in the daimond days)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable from 0 to 1 and everytime your backlight goes off the device is locked"
When I do this my device locks itself automatically after few secons even though I've set the backlight to go off after 30 seconds. Does anybody have a solution that can handle this problem?
thanks!

Code:
Manila Home softkeys:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
String HomeLSKArguments //app argument, optional
String HomeLSKPath //app path
String HomeLSKText //left softkey text
String HomeRSKArguments //same, but for key on right side
String HomeRSKPath
String HomeRSKText

You mean that after this hack Manilla will auto-rotate according to its orientation, or will it PERMANENTLY be in landscape mode?

I can't get this to work for TomTom, basically I have :
1. Add string value to HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
String: Mobile Navigator Value: \Program Files\Navigator\TomTom Audio Fix.exe
2. Add string value to HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
String: Mobile Navigator Value: TomTom Audio Fix
Not sure what is wrong here.

I think you have to add tomtom itself instead of the audio fix, because the audio fix loads the tomtom app.
[Edit] Just read the previous post, apparently I'm wrong.

I use a program called changescreen, it auto rotates by default but you can specifiy which apps you don't want to rotate. This works for TomTom + everything else. I didn't want to have to use an app to rotate, I'd rather have the phone take care of it but the rotate implementation on the D2 is pretty half-arsed. The reason I have to use this is because I'm left handed and tilt clockwise, htc in their infinite wisdom only tilts anticlockwise, for right handed people.

Enjoy...
