Vibrate Upon Every Touch - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I think it would be sweet if someone figured out a way to make every tap on an htc touch screen give off a light vibrate, similar to the vibrating dialpad hack. Or, if that is too much, maybe just one that vibrates when the start menu is activated and/or you press the "x" on the task manager. That would be sweet kuz i never know when i've pushed it or not due to the small lag until it actually closes the applications. I just think it would be cool to further incorporate vibration into the interface, simply to wow all of those htc touch haters.

check post #8. MaxMotus also seems to have a cab, though i'm unsure if it's different than the one posted in post #8.

Check out the dialpad vibrating file and maybe you can rewrite the registry for screen tap with a vibrate, maybe you can find the vibrate value through his cab. If you search, you may be able to find a listings of reg entries.

Oh.. it sounds good
Let me try

Hi!
I found this EXE in the forum and i want to change the length of the vibration. Do you know a way to edit it (decompiler,...)?

Wing locking itself

I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

When i flash my Titan to Vista style rom, there was low vibrate when i tapped to my screen!

This link leads you to a program called touchresponse v3.0... I installed it on my mogul and it works like a charm... not nearly as great as the LG Voyager... but good enough.... it is free... give it a try... I set my vibrate on touch to 30 ms...very light vibration...
Thats works great! Good find!
You guys have been using this without an issue?
I installed it yesterday. The only thing I can get it to vibrate on is the on screen keyboard (despite turning off all the "disable if..." options and unchecking "enabled only for on-screen keyboard". So basically it should vibrate every time I touch the screen but like I said it ONLY does it with on-screen keyboard.
And with that said, I can set it from 1ms to 150ms and it vibrates the same amount. The page had a fix for if changing the slider doesn't change the length of vibration. It was a registry key to check but I checked it and it was already set to what they said to change it to.
I am running Titan Reloaded 1.4b1.
Wow! I don't know how I missed this one for so long. Thanks!
Works great on DCD 3.3.4
It was be related to the rom I'm running. Using Titan Reloaded 1.41b I have noticed that during bootup (while still seeing windows mobile splash and stuff) I can tap and it will vibrate every time. But as soon as everything actually loads up it goes back to only working on on-screen keyboard. I'll have to try it with dcd.
The best touch vibrate I've had on my mogul, Thanks!. This is really comparable to the voyager's touch vibrate which i was trying to copy after being so jealous of my friend.

Hmmm. not sure if im doing something wrong or not, but on my XV6800, the vibrate is waaaay too long, loud and "harsh" despite my adjusting it even down to 1ms. In fact, adjusting the duration doesn't even seem to have any affect at all.

Vibrate Soft Keyboard Feature?

hey guys i was trying out the android sdk for the vogue and it is awesome..especially the keyboard and how it vibrates every time you press a key. i was wondering if there is a program or registry edit that can make windows keyboard do that? i currently use pcm keyboard and that would be an awesome addition to wm6.1. idk if it is possible but i would love that add-on
EDIT: i heard pcm has done that for v0.16 but it is still very unstable and the skins suck right now..unless someone can make that setting for v0.14 or a program/edit can do that i guess we might just have to wait till v0.17
try voa vibrate.exe

vibrate soft keyboard - status ?
So did it work ?????????? or did u find something else ?
I'm using one that will vibrate with every screen touch. im loving it. you can control the intensity of the vibration also.
worth giving a try!

Well, the one problem with the Vibrate option is that it may cause the White Dot Issue, which somehow gets onto the screen and stays there due to the Vibrate Mechanism..I'm not sure why, but it has happened to beware.

Tweaks (i think)

Well i have the Telus version of the HTC Touch Diamond. And sadly enough it does not have a light sensor (for some stupid reason). So i was wondering if somone could make/find a tweak that could make it so when you aare in a call the screen would not become useless but you just have to put a bit more pressure than you would normally. Because my cheek always touched the end button and it pisses me off. So you would just have to push a little harder to press the end button.
Also i dont like how you cant use ringtones as SMS/TXT sounds. Well you can but it just plays till the ringtone is over. I was wondering if there is a way that you can make it so when you recieve an SMS/TXT than you all you have to do is either tap the screen wthout anything happening from pressing it(unless you press the message tab), or to touch the center button (cause its touch sensetive) also without anything happening.
anyone??
the second one is just a sugestion
the 1st is a request please

Use one of the cooked ROMS with the Phonelock Shade/Slider

Pretty sure he wants to stop the ringtone manually. As opposed to letting it play a full song of 3mins.
Dude, use the MP3 trimmer and trim an MP3 down and set that as your SMS tone. Thus no more verses and choruses, only a portion of the song.
To stop the sms ringtone, you can press the call end button, but it switch you to the home page if your doing anything on the phone.
Yes Dickenz
Thats what i want but i used the trimmer but i always use the main chorus of a song
and thats to long eveytime i get a txt
So i can just press the end button?

WM6.5 lock screen delay fix

I want to start this threat to put together information in order to sort out why the device lock delay (see below) appears and how to solve it.
wm6.5 device lock app has changed from "tap here and next there" to a slider style like app you know from s2u2.
problem:
device lock is enabled
Code:
HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDeviceLockEnable=1
wake up the device by short pressing the power button
device lock screen is displayed instantly
it takes ~2 seconds until the slider of the device lock screen is activated and can be slided.
if you use device lock it becomes really annyoing.
there are some threads about this like this one, but the solution is not working on a Touch HD.
can anybody sched some light onthe problem why and where it appears or maybe someone already found a solution.
please post any useful information.
please do not post tips like use s2u2 or any other locking app - I do not want to use them.
the only thing i can thing of is use s2u2 or any other locking app

latest build 23001 still has this annoying delay
Iv noticed this too... The biggest annoyance for me is you turn the device on and the backlight isnt very bright, makes it near impossible to see the screen in daylight. Is it possible to have the backlight come on full when you press the power button?
i have this problem too. i think it is a serious bug of wm6.5
just hoping it will be fixed when the official release come out.
god i thought i was the only one, something about my config...
and i was exited about the new 6.5 lock screen,
but then it works like all the other M$ 6.5 sh!t, it doesn't
had to switch away from it

thanks for your help - but that was the solution i am talking about in my first post and unfortunately does not work.
also find this intensely annoying! if you look, on my hd, in the top left corner a small windows flag appears to indicate that the slider is locked, it disappears once the slider is active, and there is a definite exact time out, i dont think its random or a load time
hope this is sorted cos its rubbish!

What I've done that got rid of most of the delays regarding the lock screen on my Xperia:
I got 6 cpr files from my device's /Windows directory: LS_LockScene_xxxxxxx.cpr, LS_AlarmScene_xxxxxxx.cpr and LS_PhoneAlertScene_xxxxxxx.cpr. Get files that fit the resolution of your device, they are in pairs for portrait and landscape
opened each one of them in a text editor (they are XMLs inside)
removed all "ControlSequence" sections from them (those sections are small (like 4 entries) and big (up to 21 entries). These sections are animations of arrows. Arrows will still be there after that, they just won't animate.
uploaded cpr files back to /Windows, overwriting originals
soft-reseted.
Hope it works on your devices too

yeah. and with 6.5 23003 onwards in the top right corner an "X" (for close) appears. only when it goes off you can access the slider.
it seems as if an app is started.

great. that helped a lot!
now the lock screen is flickering shortly and the whole lock screen slides in once more from the bottom to the top but then the slider is instantly accessible.
from a time perspective a great improvement!
update:
basically you can delete the whole layer
Code:
<Layer ID="SlidePath" >
...
</Layer>
which removes the animation of the arrows and the arrows themselves.
do not delete this section if you do not know in which direction to slide the button
however, the delay is still ~1 second. but i think i can live with that allthough it is annoying to wait one stupid second to proceed
the delay you get when recieving a call with lockscreen on is caused by the slide to answer feature of alot of the new dialers. it conflicts with the popup call answer screen with wm 6.5. to fix this can find a dialer that doesnt have slide to answer feature. the backlight problem came from backlight.dll in the kaiser, using a new one from stock rom now and it works perfect
If you enable the enter a pin number after slide, there is no delay at all. I know this isnt a solution i hate entering a pin. however, i have a felling the pin app is running in the background and thus you dont get the flicker where it flicks from Start menu back to the lock app. Hence if you could create a dummy pin app, it could work to stop the delay.

that's true. i replaced LS_SimplePinScene_480x800.cpr with an empty one and allthough not using pinlock, the lock app did not work at all.
What if we designed something where when you slide it calls a mortscript or something and enters 0000+OK to by pass the pin screen (assuming you set pin to 0000). Then you edit the Pin screen so it is just a clear page, so you dont even see the pin screen flash up.
Not sure if this is at all possible as im not a programmer. Just a thought

good idea. maybe someone can change LS_SimplePinScene_480x800.cpr so that it does not expect the pin from screen but is embedded directly into the cpr file?
can anybody who has a better understanding of cpr files or the lock app give us some tips?
