Hi max414,
Pls don't make me reveal too much secrets ;-)
VGSMail is an imap e-mail client, so I receive my e-mail immediately on my magician when it arrives on the mailserver.
VJstuff well like Carty says: test some & keep some. I use them for one handed op. So VJOkButt for really closing app & VJKeyPress to simulate the StartMenu button, both assigned to a hardware button by AEButtonPlus.
Registry hacks? Well I patched it to have Camera, Album, Intellipad, MidletManager & many dll's in \Storage\Windows instead of \Windows which saves me well > 4MB RAM. & I use some of these patches, which I collected since June 2005 on the board I didn't invented them.
I ran across some extra registry tweaks at Aximsite for the X51v which seems to have improved performance on my BA. The extra reg settings are
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=0x1(1)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\DataCacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\Flags=40
The first two registry entries are already included in the wm5 fixes cab by mamaich but with a diferent value for the cache. I have been using the 4096 cache value myself already. I also tried the extra settings in bold and found it gave another boost to the PPC speed. Here is the original thread http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=104366&page=1&pp=20 Anyone else like to try and post feedback on their results? If confirmed maybe it can be added to the wm5 cab file.
Edit: Can anyone try setting this reg key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\DataCacheSize=2048 instead of 4096 as above. For me it seems to work slightly better.
I also tried changing these two entries for PIE, unfortunately PIE runs so slow i cant tell if it has any positive effect

Looping Ringtones Delay
Ring tone has a standard 3 seconds delay before repeating. You can set the delay from
0 second to how many second that you want.
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Change 'Script' from 'av0pw3r' to 'av0pr' and you'll get 0 sec delay.
OR change it to

and so on...
Plus..heres the code
a - stands for display
r - repeat/replay the script again
c - sets the volume C50, c150, c100
f - means flash .. f1 flash for 1 second and f0 stands for flash continuously
p -means play ringtone

How to:
Create new Dword value name SMSDeliveryNotify
with decimal value data 1
Wacth for capital letter

*cannot set transcriber and Phatware Calligrapher with this trick.
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip
Change the "DefaultIm" value for:
To set keyboard as default SIP, change the "DefaultIm

1. Creat new String value with Name = S1159 & Data = Am
2. Creat new String value with name = S2359 & data = Pm
3. Creat new String value with name = STFmt & data = h:mm tM
- capital letters and small letters must be followed exactly or it may cause hard resets!
- you will get capital "AM/PM" on the top bar eventhough the registry data value above was entered as "Am/Pm"
Change The Date on The Top Bar
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides
Look for String value
SSDte (short date) and change the value data, some example of date formats i have used below:

Registry Changes

First let me apologize for my ignorance.
I have an MDA PRo that was updated with an I-mate ROM.
My keyboard is the german QWERTZ but the ROM is in english.
I wouldn't be bothered if only had to adjust to typing the z for y and the y for z but other characters are out of place.
I have searched threads about this and have I found information about changing the registry. I have gone into my registry but I am not sure how to make the changes.
Can anyone be so kind as to help me to change the registry?
Thank you so much
Inger

Stolen:
I stole this from the wiki, as I'm poking around and editing it.
Change slide-out keyboard layout
If you have a Device from one country, but would like to use the keyboard layout of another, you can change the keyboard's language setting to do so...
For US layout (QWERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 1033 (DWORD decimal)
For German layout (QWERTZ):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 1031 (DWORD decimal)
For French layout (AZERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 1036 (DWORD decimal)
For other codes, see: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx
If you need to know how to implement any of this, let me know.

[HKCU = HKEY_CURRENT_USER]
To implement this, you will need a registry editor. I like Resco's the best. It is not free, but it does have a 14-day trial, so you can make a number of quick, functional changes to your phone.
If you need a walkthrough, I'll be happy to help.

Whoops. Can someone delete the first one? >_> Didn't realize I posted twice.

Walk through
Thank you so much for your response.
I loaded Resco and went to the registry.
I found - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd
but in that folder there is no "Locale" .
I am not sure what to do from here.
Please walk me through it. This is much appreciated.
Thanks again,
Inger

Hmm.
When you are in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd folder, create a new value:
Menu > New > DWORD Value
Name
Locale
DWORD Data
1031
Once you do that, close everything, and restart your phone. Let me know.

Ok I did that but it didn't work .
Thanks so much though.
Do you have any suggestions?
Inger

......>_>
Let me do some searching. <_<
I have attempted to create my own values, and sometimes they work, sometimes not.
What version ROM do you have? 2.26?

No its version - 1.13.53 WWE

.........................................

[still looking]

Thanks for the help, i tried a different setting and it worked! Without you... I would have still been lost. This is what i did:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty
layout - 132103 (decimal)
Thanks so much again
Inger

Oooooo.
Very nice.
I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but I'm glad it's working out for you.

HW keyboard driver change

Hi there! I successfully installed the German ROM (v3.08) on my US MDA. The only one problem I am facing is the Hardware Keyboard. Does anybody know a way how to keep it 'US english' ?
I tried already to copy the keyboarddrv.dll out of the Windows folder of the english installation. My idea was to copy it back on the german install but Windows Mobile did not let me copy the file! So, I am stock here ...
(I am not sure if the file mentioned above would 'change' my HW keyboard to US but unless I've tried I never will know ... ;-) )

Yep, found the answer:
Change slide-out keyboard layout
If you have a Device from one country, but would like to use the keyboard layout of another, you can change the keyboard's language setting to do so...
For US layout (QWERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 0409 (String)
For German layout (QWERTZ):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 0407 (String)
For French layout (AZERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 040c (String)
For Spanish layout (QWERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 040a (String)
Please do not make a soft reset after changing the registry values! The WIZ tends to 'just drop the changes' if you reboot too fast! Close the registry editor after changing then press and hold the power button for at least 3 sec to shut down the phone! That way your changes will resist.

Be careful:
For French layout (AZERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 040c (String) is not working on mine
For French layout (AZERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 040C (String) is working
it seems that capital letters have to be used...

qTek 9100 wm6 same thing, 040c not working, but 040C wokred, after couple of nervouse hours and 50+ resets |(

I have a spanish layout wizard that has the spanish character function keys, but even after I change the layout the special characters are still in the US layout.

I am using three different languages at my hardware keyboard so I use AEKMap (the free edition) & with the press of a key I can change between them .-

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.

You're absolutely right
My bad

here i got some that i use. (credits go to the people who found them NOT ME)

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

2. Add string value to HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList

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.

For TomTom 7, take a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524473
That's works with or without tomtom audio fix ;-) !
But if you don't install audio fix... audio... will not be good !!!
Enjoy...

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

Dear Real187, you could put directly process name for tom tom 7... but... thanks !!!
So, the right process name in WhiteList is : MunichWinClass

Scrolling Mod - customizable physics

Some of you may have already seen my scrolling mod posted in another thread. I've made better PhysicsEngine modification, more customizable than it is by default.
All parameters are listed in *.rgu, but take a look at binary parameters, such as:
Code:
"SpringConstant"=hex:8F,C2,75,3D
That's 0.06 in hex-form. You can convert floating point numbers to hex using this service: http://gregstoll.dyndns.org/~gregstoll/floattohex/. Don't forget to change byte order, e.g. 0x12345678 -> 78,56,34,12
Thanks to OndraSter for help.
Please, share settings you like. No need to make a soft-reset after setting changes because I've removed registry values caching. Also you can test it without flashing, just putting PhysicsEngine.dll file to \Windows\.

Thanks ultrashot, here are my Settings
Description: not that fast and elastic as default from ultrashot.
"GainVelocityMultiplier"=dword:00000006
"GainVelocityDivider"=dword:00000003

please make a brief description of your settings, otherwise it will be hard to determine what they do without testing.

ultrashot, I'm still playing with the meanings but I've tried lcd4linux's settings - and they look nice for Leo.
With the defaults of a package the scrolling in my case is a bit .... hmm... nonlinear I would say - there is a sharp jerk at the beginning of the movement, and then in a moment - slowing down - up to stopping scrolling process...
Settings by lcd4linux remove that jerk and slowing down effect - scrolling is pretty smooth and fast....
Sorry if it sounds messy - we can talk later in private in our native tongue
lcd4linux, Vielen Dank für .... your fast report

what's good for Leo isn't very good for Kovsky - I see opposite effects on my device

thanks for this mod ultrashot.

Disabling Paginated Scrolling effect for COM2 start menu
1) open shell32.exe (or shell32.exe\S000) with hex-editor
2) patch this:
Code:

attached my shell32.exe (module and file), build 21913
Thanks to OndraSter

first off: great mod, will allow people to adapt to device power...
what are the standard/unmodded values? so i can start trial and error mods...
just tried your dll mod and it was not smooth when scrolling, changing parameters made it ok again...but id like to know m$ values...
cheers

if you want the default ms values cooked in:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Physics]
;Totally new parameters:
"GainVelocityMultiplier"=dword:00000001 ;multiplier for initial velocity
"GainVelocityDivider"=dword:00000001 ;divider for initial velocity
"GainUserTimeMultiplier"=dword:00000001 ;usertime multiplier
"GainUserTimeDivider"=dword:00000001 ;usertime divider
;Decelerate speed (0.06 by default 8F,C2,75,3D)
"DragCoeff"=hex:8F,C2,75,3D
;Velocity at the end of scrolling, not standard parameter (dec 336 dword 150 by default)
"DragStopVel"=dword:00000150
;bigger it is, the faster rubberband effect is. (30.0 by default 00,00,F0,41)
"SpringConstant"=hex:00,00,F0,41
;mass of imaginated object, lower it is, faster the rubberband effect is. (0.1 by default CD,CC,CC,3D)
"ScrollMass"=hex:CD,CC,CC,3D

Simple float to hex converter.
Regarding default settings: if you delete all these parameters PE.dll will reset settings.

Ultrashot, can we also tweak BounceHeight? It looks like there's a reg key for it as well.

oh, yes. Forgot to add it.
BounceHeight=10 (DWORD, dec)
BounceDuration=1000 (DWORD, dec)
it isn't so useful though.

Thanks, that kicks ass. I've got some serious bounce going on now, lol.

Surely a silly question.. but just curious to know what this will do
Thanks.

Here's a cab with settings I like on my fuze; check \program files\ultrashot for a list of the settings, as well as the stock ones. I'm putting this out there just for anyone who isn't familiar with recmodding or importing reg keys.
These are the settings that work for me:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Physics]
"DragStopVel"=dword:00000150 ;stock = 150-ultra had it at 4
"ScrollMass"=hex:17,b7,d1,38 ;stock = AC,C5,27,37 which is 0.1
"SpringConstant"=hex:cd,cc,cc,3d ; stock = 8F,C2,75,3D which is 30
"DragCoeff"=hex:8f,c2,f5,3c ; stock = 8F,C2,75,3D which is 0.06
"GainVelocityDivider"=dword:00000000 ; ultra has 3
"GainUserTimeDivider"=dword:00000000 ; ultra has 1
"GainUserTimeMultiplier"=dword:00000001 ; ultra has 3
"GainVelocityMultiplier"=dword:00000001 ; ultra has 4
"BounceHeight"=dword:00000014
"BounceDuration"=dword:000004b0 ; 1200 ms-stock is 1000 (3E8)
