Good morning all,
is there a way to access these features swiftly with a single hand?
I was thinking of mapping the 5 way navigation pad like if pressed down while phone pad is running it gets the call history and of pressed up it gets the speed dial.
I guess this is very inportant while driving
wish all a lovely day,

By the way Vijay555 do you have the same for qtek s100/Magician?
(I know it may not be the right place...)
I've made most of VJPhoneShortcuts for WM5 and WM2003. I'm not sure if the Speakerphone can be enabled on WM2003 through software, it's not "accesible" in the same way as on WM5. I got bored of looking for a way to do it a while back.
I can't remember if I've released the Wm2003 versions. If not, tell me what you need and I'll try to pack it up.

PS Kudos on the Psion 5. Still the best form factor I ever used. Love it.
Basically I am using your tools:
-Jump to SpeedDialer
-Jump to CallHistory
I associated them with green key and red key with xbar.
So I just press action to call xbar and press green or red to speed dial or to get to history.
That is very convinient and I thank you every day (even if xbar was able to simulate a click on the screen button through a macro, it was not working landscape and it had a delay and if the Wizard was "thinking" the delay was too short sometimes).
Anyway I wanted to install it to a friend with a S100 and I got an error I checked on your website and you warn that it is WM5 phone compatible only.
So I was wondering if it was portable to WM2003SE?
thanks.
PS: Yeh 5mx, I open it from time to time. The screen size was really great and the keyboard... the move it is sliding outside... fantastic.
The drawback was the batteries.
But now you could fit the Universal's hardware in this form factor and it would look amazing to everybody.
meroupow: sorry for taking so long to respond to this one.
Unfortunately, the way WM2003 works is slightly different to Wm5 for this app. I spent quite a long time trying to figure it out, and then wrote another tool just to help me figure it out, and just got bored, but it can be done, and will be done. Eventually...

I've read some earlier msg. regarding Resco Keyboard Pro apparently clashing with something on the TyTN. Has anybody been able to get this utility to work consistently? I have the latest version, released after I reported this problem to Resco some weeks ago and they told me this release, 4.35, solves it. After installing RKB is seems to work OK but within hours it stops working and only the standard WM5 virtual keyboard will popup -- RKB will not even operate.
I am currently using it, and it works fine. I had sometime the default keyboard that poped out when I softreseted my phone, but it didnt happend for a long time by now
please search the forum : keyword 'resco' or 'sipchange' without quote. t.q.

Same here, sometimes after a soft reset it won't be enabled, one time it wouldn't start, and I had to softreset to get it to work, other than that it seems to be ok....the only times I notice it not being enabled is mainly when I have been installing or removin software

read his other post and the first line of this one...he is aware of the search function...just be helpful or "please" stfu
I've disabled the standard keyboard and Symbols right after installed Resco with SK Tools. Now I have Resco Keyboard and Paragon PenReader as SIPs and have no a problem so far. But I did have problems with the standard and Symbols.
Excuse my ignorance but why would you need virtual keyboard when you have hardware keyboard with TyTN?

Honestly before I got my tytn, and it being my first pda I thought I would always use the hardware keyboard, at first it was all I used, but I have a problem with the tops of my T and Y keys being scuffed by sliding the unit open..so I started using the sip keyboard and just got where I liked it better, also I got where I liked the portrait mode more also, I can use the scroll wheel easier and such...its just kinda grown on me I suppose.
I still use the hardware keyboard when I do my postings on here, just because I can punch it out faster, but I don't like it better...my thumbs are a bit big and I have to use my nails..and they tend to slide to the side of the keys cause they are bubble shaped...it would be nicer if the tops were concave, but when I do any googling or such its just a whole lot easier to type a couple words with the sip keyboard in the search box than to slide the unit open, plus even if your keys don't scuff like mine..you are creating wear, its just a normal occurrence when you have friction.
I'm sure other people have their reasons, those are just mine.
Alright Peeps, ok, firstly i bought a Charmer (MDA Compact 2 / WM5) it was pink and i decided to change the housing/shell. I opted for the O2 XDA NEO Case as i liked the black, smooth sides, chrome earpiece & Buttons. I know your all thinking why, but i've tried it and every part fits perfectly apart from the button arrangement, I was just wondering if i bought a O2 XDA NEO Keypad which has the exact same connection type as the MDA Compact 2 just the extra 2 buttons, could this work out of the box and recognise all buttons or at least the usual 4 buttons work correctly?, or is there, or could one be made, an application that the buttons could be assigned? please any help would be appreciated, as i love modding my charmer from the wise information within XDA-DEV, your the only site i'd look to for honest answers.
Cheers Bren.
just an opinion, don't go spending money because of it
but from my experience doing similar things with htc smartphones, I reckon it should work, but i doubt it will recognise the extra buttons...
maybe with a cooked ROM?...i don't know.

could there not be some registry tweaks? like adding the buttons manually and moving the others?
i have a button remapping software, but this may be more useless than usefull, i think (it'll probably just move the buttons around) i've bought the shell already and fitted it all buttons work and are in correct place, just the keypad... I'll buy the keypad and fit it coming up to christmas, i'll let you all know the outcome, so if there is any charmers that wish to charm with a prophet/XDA NEO case to the full, i will have the answer.
Any ROM Chefs or Registry Raiders? Help would be appreciated here...
or just shine a little light on the subject.
I think the person who might be able to shed some light is vlodeck, he is a very knowledgeable guy, and he ported gullum's ROM from prophet to charmer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1446686&postcount=1
as a mod, he will probably see this thread anyway, and his time is valuable etc etc, so I am definitely not advocating pestering him
....so wait a while but in case it gets missed, FYI in his sig there is a link to PM "if you need help"
*edit, I have no new information right now so I'm not gonna bump this thread but I have to say...
just saw your other thread, and the one word answer;
rtfwplsthx
made me spit coffee all over my monitor as I LOL'd
(translation - read the f***ing wiki please, thanks.)
I understood it, as I've probably spent too much time reading forums like this one recently
Hi guys
I finally read this thread Yes, I do check up the Charmer forums from time to time.
Ok, as to the question. I don't really do the cooking stuff at this time. Basically because I'm not a windows user anymore but there are registry values for soft keys and buttons. I won't tell you were it exactly is right now, but it's there. And taking myself a little in the past I recall some major problems with setting up the keys in WM6 for charmer, you remember it right? Those calendar and contacts buttons were assigned to Start Menu and OK keys, which were unconfigurable, in the registry at least. So my call is, those buttons you want to make work are hardly worth the potential time spent to actually get them working
Hi, the buttons you had trouble with kinda goes with what i want, like you said the bottom two buttons (calendar/contacts) were start menu and ok, as the keypad for the o2 xda neo has start menu and ok as standard bottom two, so that doesn't need changing (that sound like a bonus to me ) the top two will probably get recognised as the answer/endcall buttons (which is not that bad come to think of it, if buttons cannot be configured). its just the two silver answer/endcall present on the xda neo keyboard which probably wont get recognised, and if not, would there be a way in the registry to ADD them, so it would be a little different than altering settings already there? sort of copying all registry settings for one button and adding it alongside another button setting with some configuration.
Thanks Guys...
Well the Buttons worked straight away, charmer to prophet (lookalike)... all the 6 buttons were recognized instead of 4, and all in the right places. thanks anyway.
Hi everyone, i have WM6.1 Pro CE OS 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0) on my BA, and everything works fine, except my hardware keyboard. When i push any button, the key is pushed until i push any other button... it means that i push a, it writes me aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... and it's unusable.. thanks for replies.
I've the same problem

yes, i think it's going to be better, but xda-dev's ftp doesn't work for some time, so i have no idea where to get this qwerty patch.. but i am really angry from pushing keys, it's very unusable and have no idea how to solve this problem.. every reply is welcomed
sssssaaaaaaammmmmmmeeeeeee pprrrooobblleemmmmmm
It happens to me too... nothing a soft reset doesn't fix. It only happens after the PDA hasn't been reset in a while. Must be a buggy driver.
I'm running Build 19949.1.2.0.Black. I can't remember exactly who cooked it, but a search for "wm6.1 black" should turn it up.
EDIT
My rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=390862&highlight=19949
Looks like I'm overdue for an upgrade...
this is a common bug in wm6.1 roms its just another bug the BA has when its using a rom witch he was not intended for xD
My rom:WM6.1_20758_WWE_by sun_dream.
the same here! I am on an English OS with a German hardware keyboard (QWERTZ).
The thing is, that all cabs that circulating around don't work anymore. Since build 19xxx all those reg changes don't have an impact anymore! No way to change the hardware keyboard anymore!
any update on that??
regards
irm
i tried change delay before first repeat, it seems to be better, but it happens sometimes too... i like wm6 very much, but this is really bad bug, i need to be repaired...:-/
i solved the problem
try to change the speed of buttons
settings-buttons-up and down control
change the (delay before first repeat) to a little bit long (a quarter or a half of the slider)
and also
change the (repat rate) reduce the slider to a little bit slower (it probably a half)
cheers

thanks for reply but i tried it, it's one post above yours... doesn't help at all
how about reducing the repat rate to the slowest...
have u try that?
Hardware keyboard and buttons
We let go of things to acquire new and better ones =) I lost the functionality of my four front buttons and the hardware keyboard doesn't work well when I decided to upgrade my device. I can't hard reset (i'm using MTTY) and i no longer use the keyboard......... well, i have learned to live with it. In return, I have reincarnated my BA to a WM6.1 Touch phone. No more stylus; no more hardware keyboard; no more hard reset on a dead battery. I love my phone now more than what it used to be...or what it was, when i first got my hands on it =)
happenssssssss to me too.
in fact, it has done so on every single 6.1ROM ive tried...and ive tried quite a few before finally settling down with Swampy's.
My guess: threaded sms is partly to blame- correct me if im wrong.
to me, the problem happens only while replying within a big sms thread. Im guessing, displaying/having so much text on screen/in ram is some how interfering with keyboard inputs. Already, it is slow, and it sometimes gets so slow it's stuck, holding onto a key press input and hence the repeats until a new key is pressed to cancel out the effect.
likewise, if you try composing a new sms, the problem, and the slow downs are far less often.
Maybe this will help
I was having the same prob...at first i thought that something was wrong with the hardware but then it struck me that maybe its the ROM...
What you can do is that:
Go to the settings and open the Button settings..there you can see the key repeat rate settings and the delay before first repeat settings..reduce both the sliders to slow and short respectively, so now when u press a key it wont go on like crazy...
Hope this helps...It like annoying when u are scrolling using the dpad cuz dont want to keep pressing...but i think the keyboard is more important and we can bear that...
But please someone do find out some working fix for this...
Never happened to me. I'm using WM 6.1.4 ROM 20755.V2.22 (CE OS 5.2.20755) from Sun Dream. But I always install BAHRUS (HTC BlueAngel Russian Hardware Keyboard) from http://ae.inc.ru/index.php.
Hey guys, I just started using the HTC Wizard a while ago. Its loaded with WM6 and Pocket PCM and keyboard. I have two issues - one: no themes that ive tried (iphone) work properly on it and two: the keyoard is kind of messed up
Every time i hit the y key it shows "uy"
Same thing with i - shows ih
and k - shows kj
does anyone know how to fix this??
Also can someone show me how to install a proper theme - today page and dail page and contacts an all.
Thanks a lot. I appreciate it, and sorry if its a noob question.
also can someone point me in the right direction to be able to use gps or google maps on it
See the keyboard thing on my tilt roms also there is a fix cab file for the tilt can't see what there wouldn't be one for the wizard check the downloads on the wiki page or give me a few hours and I'll give it a look-see
I have no idea what your talking about. But im going to try to install the WM 6.1 all over again with my vista computer (been reading the forums) and see if the problem persists.
Thanks
