I whipped up a little MortScript package with installer to let you easily set a custom operator name and the interval in which the script will check to make sure your operator name is set. It's a two-part MortScript, opmon is the config GUI and opset is the background process which will run on first load and at system startup to ensure your custom name "sticks".
Installation & Usage
1. Download the zip file below and extract the CAB installer.
2. Run the CAB on your device to install.
3. Launch the config GUI by going to Start -> Programs -> OpMon.
4. Set your name and delay, then exit to apply the changes.
This has only been tested on my Mogul, but there is nothing device specific in the script, so it should work on almost any phone.
As always, suggestions are welcome and I hope you like it!

Very neat program works on my XV6700 WM5 AKU 3.5
What did you guys use to customize your Today plug-in? HTC Home Plugin Customizer v0.8b??
Reverts to default
I'm using this on my vario II and no matter what i set my delay to it changes back from custom to default after i've used an app or even change to a different tab on htc home.
Is there a fix?

Don't know why that's happening. Do you have a task manager? If you do could you check to see if opset.exe is running in the background?
It's also possible that your delay is set too high. If something changes your custom name back to default, it will stay like that until the opset program checks at the specified interval.
this thing rocks...WOOT

Love the program.....but.......
I have the delay set to 90 seconds yet it seems to take up to 5 minutes for it to change from default (UMTS 3) to my setting. AS it changes back every time the screen goes to sleep it is a bit of a pain.
Am I doing anything wrong?

Good work
Hi all,
I'm a total noob that needs a little help.
I'm excited to find and try this file on my new HTC touch.
Can you tell me how I install after I unzip the file?
Thanks in advance, --Ray.

Which is..some kind a problem for me. I've been trying to uninstall OpMon, but had some funny problems. The lowdown:
1. Install in Device, works but opr. name keeps reverting back.
2. Decide to uninstall from Remove Programs, but says that it cannot be removed.
and "emunutz OpMon" remains on the remove programs list and on device.
3. Tried uninstalling with MemMaid, mentions that there is an error but I force uninstalled. Files & regs are gone (I think..) but OpMon still remain on the list!
Help?
ps. I've had this problem once with the HTC Diamond Keyboard circling around. Except that one didn't uninstall at all no matter what I try and had to HR.
Doesn't seem to work on Verizon. I have the settings confirmed and it still says Verizon Wireless.
great program been looking for it for sometime thanx
Hello,
Is there a way to keep the changes after turning off the device (HD) and even after SR?
Thanks!

I tried to set the Phone Pad as the default input method by following the instructions here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
Set default SIP
The default SIP on practically every device is the Keyboard. You may prefer entry with a different SIP. If so, you can set this to be the default SIP through:
HKCU\ControlPanel\SIP\DefaultIM = |SIP ClassID|
The |SIP ClassID| will depend on the SIP's ClassID, which may vary per-device. You can find the correct ClassID by searching for "IsSIPInputMethod" in HKCR, then going to the top key and checking the name of the SIP that's in the (Default) value.
Please note that this doesn't work with all SIPs. Transcriber/Calligrapher are two examples of this.
You can, however, set Transcriber as the default SIP by starting Transcriber.exe on startup. (This should be moved to, or added to, non-registry Tweaks page)
WARNING: Do not assume that the below ClassIDs would be -as found- on your device! Setting it to a non-existant SIP may prevent your device from booting up!
Howevere, when I did a soft reset, the screen turned white which means that the settings did not work and I hard to hard reset. Is there any other way to get Phone Pad to be the default SIP.
Have you tried Sipchange?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56053&highlight=sipchange
search the registry for "Phone Pad" to find the classID to make sure what you put in is correct. the wiki just assumes what the class id is from previous wm5 phones.
i realised that sometimes i am unable to select Phone Pad. any of you facing the same problem too?

now i have phonepad set as default all the way
Dear all, sorry to hijack but can someone enlighten me to how I can get the phonepad SIP into the 838Pro? I tried installing PhonePad_Magician_Generic_WWE_RC12.CAB and PhonePad_WM5_StrongARM.cab but it does not work after a soft reset.

There are 2 phonepad CABs here, english and international versions.
@vapor:
yeah, I'm working on a version of SIPChange that will set and manage its own startup shortcut as well as allow you to change the default timeout. Getting the startup shortcut correct is one of the biggest headaches with my little app... I haven't had a lot of free cycles to devote to it lately though.
don't edit registry. it will need hard reset.
use program sipchange 1.1 or phoneAlarm
SIP need to set every reboot that bill gate brain.

Just wondering if there is a very basic phone pad skin available for the M3100...
Just a single line for the number, maybe 2 if the number is too long so the digits don't get too small...
Large buttons for numbers, no video buttons etc just numbers, no need for the TALK/END sort of stuff as the hardware green/red buttons work fine..
Just looking for something that people with wide fingers can use without a stylus....
If there isn't one, what do I need to do to create one ??
Searched the forum but can't really find anything of use on the subject.
Many thanks Phil
I found that the vista theme on Paulya.com worked wonders for this:
http://www.paulya.com/etenskins.htm
http://www.paulya.com/Projects/Eten_Skins/Vista/Vista_Trans/Vista_Trans_Origin.zip
I am tempted to go back to this dialer as it was so good on my Wizard - just lacks a video button.
Hi, Thanks for that.... Managed to get the skin to work that is included with the eten dialer... I also downloaded the eten_ans etc .zip and put it in the windows dir on the phone after extracting it.. can't seem to find how to enable it (am I thick or something... Don't answer that !!)
The only thing I didn't do was use active sync... I copied the extracted file to my memory card then copied them over from that as the PC I'm at, at the moment doesn't run activesync 4 or higher (horrible win98 se machine..
Any comments much appreciated
Phil
I jast ran the cab file from my storage card and it installed perfectly. I did have diffulculty installing additional skins though.
Hi Phil,
There is a CAB on the FTP here which gives you the phonepad software EXACTLY like in older HTC phones: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/Phone Pad - English Only.CAB
I installed it and it's great!

Hi sorry to be thick
ok i downloaded the buzzdev.net qvga dialer
but how does one install it. Do i just run the cab via activesync or run it on the vario2 or what sorry about the stupid questions
also i download the splash screen stuff from there too how do i make that appear instead of the default tmobile one when starting up
thanks
JEREMY
Just stick it onto your device, tap it to load it, install and then when prompted reboot (just hit OK and it'll do it) - the PIN entry screen remains the same, but the main dialer screen changes.
It looks very nice, and I'd use it all the time - except there's no way to use the T9 dialing feature which the regular dialer offers (where you can just type the name of the person you wish to call and it shows all valid entries from the list, so e.g. if I wanted to call my Mum - whose entry is Mum, ironically - I'd type 6-8-6 and then hit Dial). It's quite sad to see that this feature is missing, probably for a good reason as it does cause a fair bit of slowdown on my phone - more than on my old Alpine! - but I still use it all the time and I'm going to have to uninstall the skin because I really neeeeeeeeed that feature. :/
ok if I wanted to get the original tmobile dialer back then all I would have to do is uninstall it then? cool
how would I install the splash screen then?

Vijay55,
I installed it OK, the large buttons are awesome, however I have had the following problems:
1) DTMF (Tones) don't work properley when accessing voice mail etc (UK T-mobile) or any other press x application
2) Jog Dialer not active
3) No Smart dialling
Am I doing anything wrong?
Have had to pull it off becasue of the DTMF problem, I've installed it, removed it, rebooted, changed the options etc, nothing seems to fix it.
Fixed it!!
Though I am now using the Eten dialler with smart dial support and one of Paulya's Dark Blue Glass skins.
Editing the registry and setting the value to 0, then soft reboot and dtmf tones are working.
Setting it to 0 wasn't the obvious choice, and previously I hadn't soft rebooted.
Found the following from dhushy in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276700
Worked it out. For anyone with a similar problem, use the registry editor to locate the following key:
HKLM,"Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","EnableDTMFSupport",0x0 0010001,1
Change the value from 1 to a 0 and Bob's yer Uncle (for non-British readers that means everything will be cushty - see Only Fools and Horses for a contextual translation)
Did this and I was able to manipulate my voicemail messages as normal.

I am on T-Mobile UK.
i remember someone ask about how to modified ZoomSMS to working alone without scenerios and callfilter and its own missed call history(This apps use missed call history of itself and may intefere with phonealarm).
Concept is :
1.Put phoneservice.exe in Windows\ and put shortcut to startup folder and reset to let it resident in memory.
2.Remove taskbar icon by change this key.
HKLM\ControlPanel\Eten\ScenariosOption\Showicon
Change dword value from 1 to 0
Anyway,u may left it show but when u tap on it,it'll show error about missing something.
3.after 1 and 2 ,SMS-alert part on ZoomSMS is going to work fine but the Missed call alert,when u click on blue Missed call item it'll show error about finding quicklinksetting.exe (This is app. to run its own missed call history).
So u just grab tCallHistory.exe (wrote by someone here,i think) rename it to quicklinksetting.exe and put it in Windows\.Now see it work
use the NEXT VERSION!
screen shots mate?pls
A little trick to install very very quickly....
The little icon in the taskbar remain...however you can tap on it but do nothing!
No bad...
Just download, install and soft-reset!
P.s.
I have also replaced "quicklinksetting.exe" with another (better) one....
This little App simply display (using a beauty icon) on Today the missed calls and the unread SMS.....it alsto open the received sms in a proper magnified windows...
...sorry my bad english but at this moment i'm writing in 3 different language -I hate my university...eheheh...

this ought to be it, I guess. still, I would have to write on the small small tiny font sms writer, right?
Finally...this is an "EtenPack"...
the only differences is that this cab install the REAL "scenarios" to change the Phone's Profiles.....you can access to this program from the icon in the Today's Taskbar or from an icon in "Programs".....
Using scenarios u can configura 5 profiles!

where does it redirect to?
Excuse me, work on my HTC P3300? Thank you

A replacement for HTCs ActionScreen.
Coded in Win32 C++ for speed.
Applications can be configured via the registry.
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\App_X
Path changes the path, Parm changes the parameters, and Text changes the text
Timeout (how long before the application minimizes) can be changed at:
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\Timeout time is in milliseconds
The size of the text can be configured:
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\FontSize
Font colour
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\Font Red/Green/Blue (0-255)
The text at the top of the page can be configured
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\Text
If
HKCU\Software\l3v5y\ActionScreen\Exit
is 0, the app will minimize, if it's 1, the app will close after timeout or action.
Changelog:
0.03 now allows the application to close rather than staying resident in memory.
0.02 Adds configurable text, clicking on the top most bar minimizes the application.
0.01 Initial Release
reserved for updates
try this one,thx!
Update to 0.02, see first post for more...
looks cool and works well!
7 items, Why no 14?
Hi l3v5y,
It's a great tool but we already have an action 9. If you split the screen in two parts, you can put 14 items (maybe a new entry in regitry to change from 7 to 14) . Another idea is to create a new tab in manila. In any case this application looks fine and I'll test it. Thanks!!.

Currently, this is just a rewrite of the ActionScreen as it comes. I'll take suggestions on what to do, and having 14 items sounds interesting!
Also, for anyone with a blackstone, if you edit the skin file and add two more App_X keys which match those of the other keys, you can get 9 applications.
Nice! i tryed it but some things are not working.
When i click at the top it doesnt minimise, it gives an error saying that it couldnt open file "".
Also tryed to change the text at the top but it didnt change, new sms and new mms arent working (nothing is opened)
maybe the problem is that my rom language is not wwe?
the rest works good, thanks!
Hi l3v5y, as above, but not tried mms, i don't use it but nothing happens when I press new sms. I have a feeling you will fix it!

Just one thing, once you open the program and lauch something it doesnt exit, it stays minimised.
Could you add a reg entry or change it so it closes instead of minimise and wasting ram?

This may seem like a very dumb question, but where exactly do I go to find the "action Screen" on my Diamond? I've had it for about 2 months now and I've never seen an action screen. Is it after market? I ask because i understood this to be a rewrite of a current default setting that comes preinstalled on the diamond... Maybe i'm just have the biggest brain fart ever.

Could be the fact that I wasn't hugely specific. This is a rewrite of something the Touch Dual had, not the Diamond.
When are you going to prepare a 14 buttons version?

Hi!
I'm a longtime lurker, ever since I got my Touch HD when it first came out and I NEEDED to have an english rom instead of a dutch one. Thanks to this place, my phone runs exactly how I want it to (most of the time ).
Except for a decent app launcher. I HATE the win6/6.1 scrollist ones, allthough the startmenu after that sucked a little less. I liked the yotacenter launcher, but in the end I just ran out of space and had to hit the "all apps" button too often and scroll through a huge list.
So I wrote my own in c# under .net 3.5.
And, seeing as I got all my tweaks and fixes from you guys, I thought I should give something back; in essence a quick and dirty app launcher which does exactly what I want: organise the programs I use the most.
It's a catagory per page, has menu, contextmenu and top-scroll-bar driven UI and you can add your own background:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I wrote it to be as device independant as I knew how, but I've really only tested it on my Touch HD1, so I'm really curious as to how it runs "in the wild" (or even on any other HD ). To save some effort, I've just packaged the .exe, which should run from any location. If it doesn't, \Program Files\AppGrouper\ should do it.
It should come with a default background and an icon...for this initial release [call it a beta] I didn't create a cab, so you'll have to copy/edit an existing .lnk file to get the program to show up in the windows\startmenu\ .lnk files so you can use a launcher to launch my launcher (yeah, I get the irony ), or just start the app from the exe.
Anyway, as I said this is the first application I'm releasing to the public, so please give me some feedback I have no idea what "unknown unknowns" this app'll run into on different machines than my emulator and my own Touch HD. The only deletion the program can do is to a specifically named .xml file it generates itself, so it should be safe enough
PS: as I was entering the tags to this post, I realised that this type of software could have been made and released many times: I've only used MS's launcher and the yotacenter one, so any ideas and/or other similarities to other launchers is coincidence and a case of simultanious devellopment (or in my case, retarded devellopment ). Again, any feedback is appreciated, from bugs to implementation to "you've totally ripped off x!". 'Cause I didn't, but I'd like to know about x
Anyway, I hope someone can use this!
Nice apps. The Title Folder box ought be longer to fit the text
Hehe
Ok, so I guess I'll have to set up an auto resize routine for the textsize and the textbox ... check back in a day or two
BTW, what device did you use this on? I'm curious to know if the program works correctly on devices other than touch hd's, too.

Thanks for sharing!
I think mortbutton can do better than this
Ok app. thanks for sharing
By default can you pick up start menu and folder under it as group?
Else I think mortbutton can do far better job than your program. + .netcf 3.5 requirment
Thanks for sharing it. Few things I noticed
while trying to add an to a folder a drop down menu reveal 3 options - the first one is to add an app, what is the second one? it is blank on my tp2?
after running an app it stays in memory. is this how you designed it? i would prefer if it closed after running an app
finally, can you list here launchers that you came across that are standalone apps, meaning they do not sit in memory or eat CPU. i am looking for something like that with folders/tabs like yours and self-close after use.
thanks for sharing. i have one single question. i have installed it on my herald, but i cannot add more then one app to a group. am i missing something?
Sweet launcher! Thank U
I like your application!
As being an anti manila user Until now I was addicted to Program Finder plugin (attached) running on the Today Screen. Unfortunately the Today Screen does not have the SIP toggle in the bottom bar plus sometimes the Today Screen needs a refresh, due to Program Finder being an very old program; its messing up the Today Screen.
Therefore I searched the whole internet and finally after searching for 1 year I found [attachment]ToggleInputPanel.exe[attachment]. I'm executing programs via icons by running Easy Today Launcher.
Your application is a welcome alternative, thanx again! o/~
