Time tweak in WM5

Just got my Qtek 9100 today and I tried to tweak the date/time display on the top right corner of the display, ie. go to shell and create binary value TBOpt 13 00 00 00. And unfortunately... the time is fine, but the date is in BOLD format, so I couldn't see the year. That is, it looks like this:
25/11/0
18:05
-> only 0 in year part, 5 is missing. Any1 how to do it properly? Pls show me. thnx ^^

I've been searching for 2 days, but nothing so far. I think Universal users have this problem too.

spb pocket pc tips & tricks
Have you guys tried spb pocket pc tips & tricks? This will perform this tweak for you, although the value mentioned TBOpt 13 00 00 00 is the same on my magician.

I deleted the key TBOpt from HKLM/software/msft/shell, and the time is still there in bold.
I tried tweaking with battery pack pro, but they only add the 13 00 00 00 value into the TBOpt registry.

I haven't seen a fix for the bold font yet. I tried the Universal registry tweak, which allowed me to change the date to a M/DD format that was not on the regional settings list.
The problem is it also made the OK button go away. Made it a bit difficult to close my programs, so back to the bold.

Top and bottom bar = black?

Why can´t any theme be black in top and bottom bar??
I make an black theme, but when I load it in to me 9100 it´s always light grey... I want it black!
Please help.!?

If you modify your theme with a cab editor,you just need to modify a value :
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\
Modify value 5 (REG_BINARY) to hexa 00 00 00 00 (Black).
You can also look at this wiki page : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WindowsMobile5Colors

You could also send post your theme.
I'll modify it.

Could you post a very basic theme that uses registry key 5 to get the black bars?
I just tried again - and just setting key 5 does absolutely nothing on my Qtek 9100.
Here's what I did...
Opened PHM Regedit
Went to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color
Added a new Binary value labeled "5"
Set value to "00 00 00 00"
.. waited a while so that the registry could be written away ..
Performed a soft reset
.. waited for the PPC to start up ..
Top and Bottom bars are blue.
Opened PHM Regedit
Went to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color
Checked for Binary value labeled "5" - it's there, and set to "00 00 00 00"
So.. no luck with that registry setting here :|
I can only get purely black bars using:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Theme.tsk::Color_SoftkeyFlatCenter = 00 00 00 00
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Theme.tsk::Color_TitleFlatCenter = 00 00 00 00
Where Theme.tsk is my theme's name.

Newest camera 2.70.0.21104 and modified album

Hi,
Just wanted to share the latest camera app with you.
Originaly it was a german version but I made it english.
Also I changed album.exe and put a Exit command in the
menu.
First you need to install Camera_Wizard_Magician_T-Mobile_WWE_RC28_Customize.CAB
Then overwrite both camera.exe, album_res.dll and album.exe from camera_album.zip.
These 3 files are upx-ed to save memory.
The camera.exe is from Camera_Wizard_Magician_T-Mobile_GER_RC29_Customize.cab (version 2.70.0.21104)
One thing that still is bad is when the camera ambience is in Auto.
It still is not working as it should. Better operate the Ambience in
DayLight or Night mode.
The magician can have 2 kinds of image sensors. Mine uses hklm\drivers\builtin\camera_sensor1.
You can fiddle with the LightSensorHz a bit. Default it is set to "50" but you can try "0" or "100".
Could not find much difference.
You can check which camera_sensor driver is active by going into
hklm\driver\active and look for Name: CAM1: or CAM2: (CAM2: in my case at key 25)
Some other camera related tweaks (decimal dwords):

Command line options for camera.exe, so you can make shortcuts yourself.

-i or /i switch to photo mode

-p or /p switch to contact photo
-t or /t switch to picture theme mode
-v ot /v switch to video mode
Still looking for a way to enable rotation and the paint appl in the editor.
In the resource file the images are there (see attachements)
EDIT 5 apr.
The UI interface mechanism is getting clear. If you put album_res.dll (a resource file) in ResourceHacker you
wil find the BMP section of the resources. The BMP i´m interested in is 920 (see attachement below).
If you count the number of icons in that picture you get 10.
Now goto the 241 section. There you will find a 920 resource too. It reads:
01 00 10 00 0F 00 0A 00 0C 91 0D 91 0E 91 0F 91 F9 8C 28 8D 29 8D 2A 8D 2B 8D 18 91
(there is a bug in resourcehacker that doesn´t show the last pair of digits of a 241 resource)
Look complicated at first look. But it isn´t. Lets try:
01 00 10 00 0F 00 = always the same in every 241 resource
0A 00 = 00A0 is 10, so then commands/function id´s follow
0C 91 = 910C = 37132, and is the command for PAN (remember the first icon
in the 920 BMP?)
So (see album_res_920_1033.bmp):
910C is PAN
910D is CROP
910E is RESIZE
910F is COLOR ADJUST
8CF9 is SAVE (dec 36089, and can be found with Resource Hacker in
resource 242 in the Menu section, named Save ;O)
8D28 is ROTATE CLOCKWISE
8D29 is ROTATE ANTI CLOCKWISE
8D2A is MIRROR HORIZONTALY
8D2B is MIRROR VERTICALY
9118 is goto PAINT menu
To be continued
Anybody found a newer version for wm2003se?
Happy tweaking!

change text color today screen

How do you change the color from the text on the today screen, my appointments are in white on a white background.

In the registry go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\4. Change the value to "00 00 00 00" for black or "00 00 FF 00" for blue. I try more colors without problems. I use FF FF 80 00 for yellow. this is well seen for quite a light background (photo)
notice: modify this registry key with memaid was weird. I try then total commander and there was no problem.

Try this:
http://www.colorpicker.com/
Copy the color from the upper text box, remove # sign and add "00".
If you want to understand what it means you can take a look here:
http://web.njit.edu/~kevin/rgb.txt.html
http://cloford.com/resources/colours/500col.htm
The first three groups of numbers (00 00 00) are standing for RGB (red green blue) in hexadecimal.

where can I find the registery using TCM? Thanks in advance

FootCam.exe for COM3

I didn't found anywhere for the position fix for footprints camera for COM3 build, so I thought it would be usefull if I post the patched footcam.exe from Footcam v1.26.20162730.00.
What I've done is using IDA pro, search for the immediate value of 0x2EC (dec 748), there will be 3 of them, the hex code is BB 3F A0 E3, where BB X 4 = 748, change it to B7 3F A0 E3, B7 X 4 = 732 (0x2DC) which is the value we need, since the softkey bar is 68, every 0x2EC below few codes, there is a mov command to load 0x34, which is the height of taskbar, change it to 0x24 and everything fixed.
Enjoy!
