vodafone(.de): how to show the home-icon? - Networking

Hi, i have some special interests regarding the home-area-icon by vodafone:
1. How get a HTC the info "you are in the home-area"?
I think in the OS is integrated a special program from Vodafone, that is reading the digital informations from the data packets from the GSM network (cell ID?) and compares this informations with the saved datas on the SIM card, so that the device can show the home-icon. Is it correct?
(So i know: O2 works with a broadcast channel. But VF and T-mobile works with a other System.)
2. If it be a special program: is it for different HTC devices (like "VPA..." or VPA compact...") identical or is the program for each VPA type specialy programmed?
3. If it be identical: whith cab files from Vodafone i need, to show the home-icon on my today screen?
Are specialy prerequisites needed?
4. Are this program and the settings not identical in each country, so i'm searching the german CAB files. (or the names of the files)
I'm grateful for each information for this thread.
Greetings Frank

1. You need a special SIM, wich is able to support the Service.
(Not all UMTS SIM Cards support this service)
2. Sometimes, the Customer Service have to send your a configuration Message to the SIM...

I have both
I know and i have from Vodafone.de the SIM card with integratet STK. VF also has send the configuration-SMS for the home area setting.
In the last time i have found informations about showing the home area into the display.
In the OS is a file (stk.exe) thats communicate with the STK from the SIM.
OK, if i deal a number, i have the acousic signal for the home area. But there isn't a icon in the Display, if i be in my area.
I think, i have a older version of STK-software, that's can't show the home-icon, because i have a WIZARD (VPAc2) with original WM5.
If i call the STk-Soft ("Vodavone-Services") it's only list SMS-InfoServices, MMS-InfoServices and Mobile fun.
I can't see other services. In the OS i also missing some files to get all services. In the WM6 ore on newer devices after the VPAc2 are more files for the STK. As sample: STK_uippc, tkitapp, STKTray, StkStarter.
-
Another Problem is the follow:
If i flash to WM6 (german), the STK-tool is absolutly not available:
- No shows in programmfolder and
- it's not run, if i call it manualy into the Windows folder and the other STk Utilitys shows clean windows.
Why work the original WM5 STK half and the WM6 STK not?
Thanks for answer.
Greetings Frank

new Information
Now, i have tested the follow:
new flash of the original Rom for VPAc2 (Wizard). After the flash the device is reboot and after the reboot it's say, that's want to setup the Provider settings after 3 seconds => Softreset on this message.
(No Provider settings installed)
After softreset it is shows a window named STK-Service: "Zuhause"
(i'm in my home-area. In this time i dosn't have tested the Displaying "Zuhause", if i leave the home area and come again.)
But it's only the STK-Service windows and not showing a icon!
I think, it's needed some additional entrys for the STK settins in the registry. But what?
By different HTC devices i've found different positions for STK-settings.
By one device it's call "STK", another device call's "Stk" and again by another device "HTCSTK"...
So are the different positions in the registry:
- [HKLM \ SOFTWARE \ OEM \ STK]
- [HKCU \ ControlPanel \ HTCSTK] (This is original from VPAc2)
- [HKLM \ Services \ Stk] (this was written by TMo-STK-Setup)
And every of this registry entrys has different entrys for the settings!
Now i'm verry confused!
PS: Someone has a tip for me?
I need the references for the registry entrys. But, where are this references to find?
Greetings Frank

registry references in the ddl files?
In this time i have searched in the dll files for references of registry entrys. i mean, that i have found some references. but i don't know, if it be registry entrys or program work codes. There are some for me known references and many unknown codes.
Anyone can give me the correctly registry entrys (with the path in the registry) for the STK services, so that i see the icon for the home-area?
Or anyone can help me to find the correctly entrys from the dll files?
greetings Frank
PS:
I can not find some new references of Registry-Entrys in the dll files for displaying a "Home"-Icon. Without help i must give up.

How t remove T-Mobile colours from your device

So here is the procedure of getting rid of T-Mobile's customization:
The whole proccess means you will do a hard reset and you will be installing everything from the beggining! So if you don't want that to happen you have to stay with T-Mobile's customization!
Step 1
Hard reset your MDA Compact (power+soft reset). Do all the neccesary steps (choosing your country and timezone) and when you get in the screen that tells you to tap the screen in order to start working have your stylus at the soft-reset hole tap the screen with your finger and do a soft reset IMMMEDIAELY AFTER YOU TAP THE SCREEN!
Step 2
Your MDA compact will restart without any customization it will be a clean Windows Mobile 2003SE. With the file manager go to the Extended ROM folder that is now visible and install the following files:
Caller_ID_WWE_RC10.CAB
Camera_Patch_WWE_B15.sa.CAB
GPRSMonitor_WWE.sa.CAB
Java_10.1.2.57_WWE.CAB
MMS_2.0.0.13_WWE.CAB
MMS_Settings_WWE_NL.CAB (This file will install the settings of T-Mobile NL but if you don't install it and then change the settings to your providers settings most probably will end up with MMS that does not work. So install those settings and change them accordingly to your providers settings)
Patch_101123.sa.CAB
Version_WWE_101124.sa.CAB
Zip_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_B12.CAB
Those are all the files you need to install. For those who need intellipad and intellidialer they will also have to install the 2 files for those programs.

intellidialler does not work
I have a T-mobile MDA Compact in the UK.
If I follow these instructions it works fine - thanks. (SOme of the CAB files are UK versions or have later version numbers.
1. Is there a list anywhere of what each of these CAB files does?
2. The Dialler becomes crappy (formatting numbers in the US way, and not searching for contacts). The default microsoft colours are much more intuitive for showing missed calls/received calls etc in the recent calls list than the T-mobile palette, but i can't make the dialler search the address book in the very clever way it usually does. The intillidialler won't install either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Nigel.
Has anyone found decent versions of intellipad and intellidialler to install after doing the debrand on a UK Compact?
Quick question, i did all this and it worked fine for me, orange sim is working happily away when i unlocked the device via IMEI check and installed the orange rom but i've lost the clearvue products suite. I've looked in the extended rom partition but i can't find it
love this thing tho...still fiddling with it 2 months down the line
and how do i get the default microsoft colours?

Unlocked O2 XDA IIi - need Orange settings please

Hi
I recently purchased an O2 XDA IIi, which is unlocked from O2 and has been hard-reset to remove O2 features.
My SIM works as much that I can make/receive calls and send/receive text messages.
But, to access Internet, Email, MMS etc etc I need the settings for Orange (Ive tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7306 but no luck).
Does anyone have the correct settings please ?
Is there a programme I can download (the type that is pre-installed onto Orange phones) as this may be the quickest solution.
I have tried Orange support on 3 occassions now and whilst they state they dont support non-orange phones they have tried to help - but without success.
Does anyone know if the hard-reset actaully leaves various O2 settings on the phone, which still need sorting.
ANY HELP WOULD BE GOOD !!
Thank You !!!
Paul
try removing the o2 profiles in connection
and making sure it's not set to autopick the o2 connection profile
and such
p.s. hardreset remove no o2 features as they are most likely loading in again from the extented rom when it's hardreset
guess you could try to edit the extented rom and remove the o2 stuff from it and hardreset once more
hi
there is no sign of O2 anywhere in the connections settings.
how can i find if O2 exists elsewhere ?
thanks
Paul
settings->connections->connections
should give you a menu with connections
something the line of
My IPS
add a new modem connection
manage existing connections
My work network.....
if you pick manage existing connections you can see which
connections exist and edit them

cab file not recognized
1st thanks to you all for helping all us newbie's.
I've checked the threads (hopefully), unlocked the xdaIIi with itsme's fine unlocking tool, downloaded the cab file for vodafone uk. But when i browse to it in file explorer i get a icon and msg to say that the file's not recognized.
And i need to run a program to open the file.
Also the file name is; "download" and not uk *****.cab.
Any ideas or am i just missing the point ?
Thanks.

How can I store STK (SIM TOOL KIT) in an extended ROM?

I found STK (SIM TOOL KIT) at "ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Extended_Roms/". This cab file is installed at the MDA PRO as a usual software without any problems, but when I added this cab to the extended ROM, I came up agains the following problems: the cab with a STK tool installed normally, but at the end of the istallation of the following cab my MDA PRO hanged. Is the reason of this bug that I took the cab file from a Wizard based device? Could you send me any approved cab with STK or an extended rom with STK?
What exactly are you trying to do with STK?
this is a quote from my report that i have just submitted about history and 3g background
STK (SIM Application Toolkit) – this service allows to save on the SIM card various commands for the handset. In effect it is a macros, usually recorded by the service provider. It executes various commands like sending USSD code or a text message that will generate a response by the network. In operation the user is not required to remember the USSD code or the contents of a text message, it is enough just to choose the relevant menu.

so i would assume that the cad files allow the support of STK, but they are not actually STK...

Show Service provider name ('operator' / 'network') in dialer

Since I am using WM5 AKU3.3 (TMO HR origin) on my Wizard I do not see the active operator name in the dialer anymore.
The info is still available on the device as ie the wireless today plugin still shows the name.
In another thread someone stated that the WM5 AKU3.3 ROM do not show the operator name in the dialer by default.
My question is if there is a registry setting (ie in the RIL branch) or any other hack that can fix this.
Please note: I am NOT talking about a carrierlogo. I allready replaced the default (containing the T-Mobile logo) file with an empty transparent one.
The reason for wanting to have the operator name in the dialer is to check what network I am on because I use a dual sim. I have the info on my today screen (using the SIMToday plugin) but want to have it in the dialer also (just like with previous ROM versions).
The answer is a very simple: don't use T-Mobile ROM. All other ROMs, WM5 and WM6 have operator name in a dialer.
That is an option, but the WM5 AKU3.3 rom from TMO is the only official rom of that generation available. And i'd like to stick with it because of that.
I know previous ROM's (also TMO) do show the operator name, just this one doesnt.
If this is specific to this ROM, there should be a way to overcome the issue?
Meanwhile I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324844
But the reg keys mentioned are not on my device.
a program can check if reg keys are present without auto creating them if they are not
in which cause only way to get the program to get the behaviour from the reg keys is to manualy create them
Rudegar, can you give me some hint on what you mean with your statement? You puzzled me . . . . .
I do know how to create reg keys and set values, but its strange that a whole set of keys simply isnt available . . .

Cloned Network...^^

Hello folks!
After i updated my Artemis (aka MDA Compact III) to WM6 (with the original ROM from T-Mobile) the network my phone is connected to is shown twice (for example: if i press the "phone" button on the top taskbar it shows "T-Mobile D T-Mobile D")
This is just a little Problem but it doesn't look nice in my eyes
Does anybody know how to get rid of this?!
I'm looking forward to hear from you
Thanks
Try to do an Hard-reset otherwise if it's still not fixed try to reflash with the original rom of WM6
I've already tried both of your suggestions. But still same situation...
Does anybody else know how to solve this problem?
Problem solved!!! Heres the translated text taken from a German forum...
Reason: "Windows Mobile RIL" and "HTC RIL" are displaying the Providername at the same time which causes the "clone" (Happens only if T-Mobile ROM and Dialer Skin that not uses phcanhtc.dll is used!)
Solution: There are two possibilities/CAB´s.
1: ProviderFIX WM RIL Manipulation
- The HTC RIL is still showing the Providername while the Windows Mobile RIL just displays a "invisible" symbol. (works great for me!)
2: ProviderFIX HTC RIL Deactivate
- HTC RIL is deactivated, only Windows Mobile RIL shows the Providername (it is possible that this permanently disable the @Home Icon of T-Mobile)
Downloadlink: http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/attachment.php?attachmentid=25042&d=1197170450
Installation / Deinstallation:
- The chosen CAB needs to get installed on your device. A deinstallation is possible. Both CAB´s just change some values of the registry.
After the installation do a Softreset.
