Guys, I've got a multi-sim
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=138594#138594
and would like to make my own today plugin to get operator name (and from there, display my operator logo.
Can you guys tell me how to read the Operator Name (eg Orange), and to simulate flight mode off and then on again, to cause the sim to swap over?
Is this through API or AT commands?
Thanks!
V
For your information:
The new Beta from PocketZenPhone now works also with Wifi on/off.
I gave the programmer the files from Extended Rom, which can switch the Wifi on/off.
Maybe someone missed this feature.

Works perfectly for me on my Exec. Is always the first thing I install on any PPC. Only tiny problem is that the original QVGA icons aren't resized so you'll need to find some larger ones for the Today screen if you want to be able to operate the buttons with your finger.
Been using it on my 2 and 2i, now with the Exec...
works great, well worth the money too.
@Anton
on my JJ with PocketZenPhone I could not get the profile to correctly set the backlight. For all profiles (when on battery) it sets the backlight to maximum even though I set it at 25%. Does this work on your Exec/JJ?
Thought this might be a good place to start listing any quick tips and tricks you might have discovered.
To Lock Device quickly
Keep finger on the Red (Call End) button and it will bring up some options including keylock.
Not sure if anyone's noticed this but when I end a call on my Dual there is annoying little delay of about 3 seconds before the actual call is ended so I searched the registry and found this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting]
And I changed the value of EndCallTime from 3000 to 1000 re-booted and voila no more delays when ending calls
Hold the on/off button for soft reset.
Smart Dialing
This is an advertised feature but apparently not too many people are aware of it. Go to the phone app and start tapping the first couple of letters of the contacts name and the name matches will appear for you to choose from. I find this much easier than opening up the Contacts app and scrolling down to the name you need.
after pressing send for phoneapp u see last calls.
If u press left/right on the highlighted contact the phone switches through home/mobile/office...
HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\Biotouch\ regulates the FPS of the cubeanimation.
Change "DownFPS", "LightFPS" und "UpFPS" to something higher for a smoother (and faster) animation.
Disable 3G, if not needed (it drains the battery faster than GSM):
Edit the registry key HKLM\Software\OEM\UMTS\OpMode and set it to "1"
Then also you could change that setting
Phone Settings --> Band --> Network Type --> GSM
To activate the changes, open the comm manager from the Cube, disable the phone and enable it again.
In italy with Vodafone I can't able to select also the Network Band GSM/UMTS to "GSM(900)" but I have to let it configured as "Auto" or "GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(2100)"

Ello, new here.. no idea if this helps a few Dual owners but..
Apps found to work on the touch dual:
S2u2 (iphone slide to unlock app), works like a charm:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343256
HHC, HTC Home Customizer (name says it all), also working like a charm:
http://www.pocketemu.com/download4.html
gfreek, thnx for the EndCallTime key, works perfect and.. 1 less annoying feature to go
Things I'm still looking to solve:
1. Mp3 ringtone seems to fade out after picking up a call, for about 2/3 seconds the ringtone is still audible :S
2. Looking for settings for the Handsfree profile, i have an Lm959 bluetooth bracelet (how geeky, i know), works fine.. but only for calls, the device is capable of blinking the leds on receiving msgs, im looking for the settings to enable just that on the TD.
3. Polling frequency of the TD seems to be on the high side, f.e. it takes about 3 rings from someone before the TD starts "ringing", since voicemail kicks in @ ring 6 I miss a lot of calls.
I found a topic about just this problem with the touch(Elf) on sprint networks, with a quickcode (##7380# I think, well.. I'm not on sprint..so that doesnt work over here.. anyone with any clue would be welcome.. My current solution is disabling voicemail..)

to do this quicker go to settings => long press end key
and select automatically execute and then lock device
holding the red button then locks the device in one press
You can invoke s2u2 instead normal devicelock
just install s2u2, rename Slide2Unlock.exe to EndKey.exe and copy all files to windows directory, with resco explorer.
the ilock doesnt seem to be working on my touch dual. when i try to go to settings, the screen goes blank.
You need to disable directdraw, do it via the registry as you can't access the settings.

Is there a way to add the "3G setting" directly in the Comm Manager as seen here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354380 ?

Go with Total Commander to:
\\registry\HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager and change the key
"SupportedFunctions" from 4 to 5
then make a new map named "5" (without the quotes)
go to that map and make a STRING named "default" and the string must
be "3G" (also without any quotes).
Then turn the phone off and on again and there is a 3G setting in your CommManager. I did not manage yet to add a icon in front of it
(and also not tested the working of the new setting)
Thanks, someone also pointed me to Schaps' app that has that setting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070

Wish there was a way to change the amount of rings before voicemail kicks in.
please help someone!

ah found it, at least for UK Orange people:
Please bear in mind that the following code is only valid for phones on the Orange UK network.
The code to set the length of time your phone rings is:
**61*07973100123*11*??#
Where ?? is the time in seconds, e.g. to set the ring time to 30 seconds you would type the following code at the standby screen then press the green send button:
**61*07973100123*11*30#
To make your phone ring for only 10 seconds:
**61*07973100123*11*10#
The code works in 5 second intervals, i.e. you can set 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 & 30 seconds.

On my other recent HTC phones (Kaiser and Diamond) it wasvery useful to disable 3G to improve battery life.
Is there a CAB or a ROM that includes a comm manager that has a switch to disable 3G?

hi,
- go to "Settings" => "Phone" => klick the tab "Band" => change Network type to GSM and thats all. My ROM "RuRo" has default disable 3G, because i don't use that. But if you need that, you can easy put 3G on.
In Setting->Phone->Band Menu item,you can disable 3G function
- sorry wrong forum section!
I picked up a Droid 2 Global last week and it appears that Verizon has crippled the GSM/UMTS capability of the device by restricting use of the 850/1900 MHz GSM/UMTS bands in the US.
The tech specs from Motorola indicate that the D2G is quadband GSM (850/900/1800/1900) and triband UMTS (850/1900/2100).
...but the User Guide (page 12) and Motorola FAQ page say "DROID2 Global by Motorola switches effortlessly between CDMA, GSM 900, GSM 1800, and UMTS 2100 networks" which would seem to indicate that use of the 850/1900 MHz GSM/UMTS bands has been restricted.
This is supported by the fact that several people on various forums have attempted to use the D2G on AT&T and T-Mobile networks (which use 850/1900) with no success. I'm assuming it is some sort of software restriction, either via a hidden menu setting or because of the Verizon ROM.
Any devs know how we might be able to enable these bands?
Try checking this:
- Pull up the dialer
- *#*#4636#*#*
- It will automatically bring up the "testing" menu when you hit the last *.
- Click on phone information and scroll to the bottom.
- The first item that can be changed is a drop down list "Set preferred network type:"
See if there are any options in there that you can change to what you're looking for

The only thing I don't recognize is "SMSC:", which has a text box with an Update and a Refresh button. Not sure what that does.
However, there is also a greyed-out "OEM-specific Info/Settings" button, wonder what might be there!
Verizons not gonna make this easy on us, where really gonna hve to think out of the box on this one. We can just wate for a Droid 2 Global spacific rom and hope that its a software lock.

SMSC for my opeartor shows SMS center phone number when you press to refresh.
Obviously, if you set here another phone number and press update it should apply new value to phone.
