Does anyone know if O2 has already launched its MP3 Player for the XDA family?, Do you guys know if there is another web browser por pocket pc rather than internet explorer??
last question 8)
I have an XDA IIi and the clock is missing ,it only shows the volume and the phone Icons at top of the device, do you think this is normal on the device??, or if there is a way to fix this
regards
Jorge
Have you tried ftxp browser, the wm2003 version is freely downloadable, there are several things to be added but its worth a look.
Just copy it to your pocket pc.

This is due to the software installed by o2 during the initial install. There are LOTS of posts on various ways to bypass this if you search for them. There are two main ways: registry hack or complete removal of the o2active software.
I for one have posted on a detailed way of doing the second of these, but for the first option go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=16580&highlight=2i+clock+registry
and look for shanedean's second post. It references the issue and directs you to tekguru's site to perform the registry hack. You will need a PPC registry editor to do it.

Hi all,..
Is there a way to change the Backlight button on the universal so it activates the Camera light on the back of the device instead of turing on the backlight?
When possible the Universal becomes a pocket flashlight. Now when I want to activate the universal camera light I need to start up the camera software, It would be much quicket to just press the Light button to enable and disable the bright camera light. The Light button is now unuseful to me because the backlight automatticly turns on when tapping the screen, so no button needed...
anyone got a idea?
Best regards,..
Arjan
Now thats a damned good idea!! The backlight button is useless anyway.
Anyone here got the skills, I am afraid that I am just a lowly win32/KM developer...
Whats the best way to get into WM2005 coding?? Does it still require you to install 10,000 toolkits, or does Visual Studio 2005.net have the nessesaries? (if work ever sorts out our MSDN sub that is!)

..... please?
As an almost entirely unrelated aside, you guys know that my program VJLumos, for the superbright screen, works on the Universal?
Doesn't make that much difference because it already has a nice screen.

Hi Buzz,..

True, true... but the camera flash is trully bright!!! Even more than the screen!
I've checked the Win32 Mobile API and found nothing, so the solution must be in one of the HTC DLL's!
Disassembling Camera.exe in IDA didn't give big results neither... :?
I'll continue my reseach and post the results here!
Just wanted to keep this close to the top of the forum,
I would love this feature! Please please pretty please
Regards, Simon
Me To
would be great to have a portable flashlight with me all the time
Still triying, but until now, no success...
buzz_lightyear, can you give a hand here?
Realy hope anybody can find it out because this would be really great!!!
But can it be fixed?
Will this be possible?
not that I really know too much about all this kinda stuff, but MortPlayer refuses to recognise the button with a lightbulb on it even if you use the option that allows you to specify a hardware button by pressing it. Does this mean that this button is somehow hidded frm WM5 or am I being silly?
//Xi
MusicPlayer can recognize the button, I think it takes it as some kind of function button (F4 or F6 or something like that), so is definitely possible to use it.
I actually use it, after adding it to the registry. The button code is C8, so you just have to copy paste another button, and change any CX occurence to C8.
Key is HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Shell/key/40CX
OK, so that's taken care!! Now to find HOW the camera turns the flash light on... I'm sure it's some kind of API..... :? :?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/e..._7effd1fa-1b3e-41ba-b176-42cb16dae7d4.xml.asp
i think this is done at driver level....
we might need to hook up with the camera driver dll, disassemble it and get the function names....
and then, need to write an app which will link up the dll at run time and call the fn....
apart from that, theres no simple way to do so using MS provided sdks for wm5....

I agree!! But I don't think that WIA is something to go thrue, since that applies to Win32 only!
That link was from the Desktop Windows DDK. The windows mobile DDK is a different beast.
I suspect the API will be similar tho. I very much doubt whether the camera app is going to directly call an IOCTL down in kernel mode to control the camera light (that would be crude!) It will be doing so via a user mode API. The key is going to be to find which DLL handles this and what the function name and format is!
Unfortunately although I write Desktop Windows drivers, I have not got the first clue about windows mobile programming - dont even know what tools to install!

Just noticed something very odd: WM2005 emulator does NOT have camera.exe!!!
Camera.exe is the picture taking app on the WM2005! Where the hell is it?? Only on real devices (my Exec has it)?

the wm5 sdk has the camera api exposed...however, no luck finding anything related to the flash light
i think its something htc has directly hooked up.
horrible MS they have to goof up somewhere ..... :evil:
i guess some disassembling is needed

Hi !
All the times i´m sure, that the same Turbo-Modus from WM 2003SE exist deep in the WM5 too.
People call me, Jay, you are crazy!
Since one Week ago i find the Turbo-Modus !
We tested it on the German-Forum http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=81949
It´s the same Speed-Up Feeling like on the XDAIIi or other Devices with the Turbo-Modus On.
No 50% or 1000%- Booster, but you can feel a better "Easy-Going".
It works on some other WM5-Devices too !
First, you only take a "new" Key to the Registry, copy the Power-Programm from WM2003 SE, start the Power-Programm,
go on new Processor-page and:
The Turbo-Modus exist and can be activated !
Here is the key:
HKEY_Local_Machine\ SOFTWARE\HTC\Power
Put a D-String with Name "ProcessorPageFlag" 1 Dec.
I made a reg.-File who write the key, and i put it with all needed files in one .zip-File.
Password: Agent Jay
First try the reg.-File, than copie the Files, if you want, you can overwrite the files in the Windows-Directory, but backup the originals !
Put the power.lnk File in the autostart/startup Directory, and now, after every Softreset, you can activ the Turbo-Mode.
It works perfectly, you can only feel the Speed-Up on really full Memory Pro´s, not really on empty Pro´s. Don´t know why.
Problems: After a Softreset it goes on "Standard-Mode", it must be activated again manual by Hand.
But these five Seconds for restaring Turbo-Modus during a startup are OK for me.
Anyone can it handle or find a way, to save the turbo-modus forever ?
I hope you like it !
Greetings from Germany,
Agent Jay
???
Is it workin or just eating up my alredy bad battery? :/
RE
I just installed yesterday on my QTEK9000 and I 'think' its smoother in operation.
Not very sure about it
As I''m running XCPUScalar and some other speed up registry tweaks if there's any speed increase its definitely not noticeable
Thanks
It´s not possible to detect the faster speed, because it don´t push up the megaherz-rate !
But you can feel the faster performance.
No more power using from your battery !
So it speeds it up without speeding up the processor or using any more battery power? Hmmm. Surely if that were possible then the "Turbo" mode would be the default mode and no other mode (like "slowmo" mode) would exist?! :wink:
Could it be that the Turbo page is something that is built in to WM5 but which was disabled on the Universal since it does not support it?
Seems to work on my Magician
Can anyone pinpoint the actual benefit of this tool?
Exactly what difference is experienced??
The benefits are a faster and a feeling of "liquid" working.
Thats it.
Menus open faster, Windows open faster, the handling is therefore better.
No longer hickups, ...
It´s like Aspirin for a guy with headache.
After the Aspirin he don´t run faster, but he have no longer headache :wink: and make a better work.
I think, every little speed up of our device- help us !
Try it or leave it.
Regards,
Jay
It really wont make a difference on the HTC Universal because it already has a 520 MHz processor. With the PDA2, the processor was underclocked to 416 Mhz and the power-up option was useful there.
UD.
Thats not correct. It works on the Universal too !
First users here and some more users on german forum had tested and feel
more Speed. You can´t test it with benchmark-apps, because you don´t speed up the processor. Don´t know exactly, what it is, but it works.
Test it yourself and than reply !
Greetings,
Jay
Alright Jay, will keep you updated
Cheers.
Uhm... it *seems* to do something to the general responsiveness of the Universal, the hourglass appears for less time now.
I'll keep testing it... thanks for the clue.
Are you sure with this password. It is not working to unzip it !!!!!!!!!

Hi All...!
In this times i has received many support from user niki forum.
Thanks so much guys.
Now i'm cooking ours Rom niki device,and what u want in Niki project Rom please post here.I will look in it and select which the best for us.
Any ideas just post in this thread
U're welcome guys
first to post here...well I guess the best way to start is to thank you for your work!
second..I think that all niki's users would love to find a way to improve battery life...right now it really drains out quickly..and perhaps there is something that can be done to reduce the consumption of energy.
plus i would love to see wifi connectivity on my screen..
ciao from Italy
I guess there will be many nice things to include (which dont come to my mind right now.. )
The only thing i'd say at the moment is that it would be awesome to include PointUI (www.pointUI.com) in some way... I know it's in very early stage and still has some bugs but it simply looks astonishing!
just my 2 cents...
i would like long press end key to power an .exe. such as slide2unlock..
1st I want to appreciate for you taking the time to try to make a good device even better.
Here it goes:
A finger friendly, always accessible task manager/task switcher (like the one of AE Button Plus, also the button-customization possibilities are nearly endless, which enable ducamie to do what he wants)
hangup-on-slider-close tool which is available in the forum. maybe it needs some modding since I prefer not to lock the phone or anything else but just to hang-up if I accepted the call via slider-open.
LCMinutes (also available here)
the HTC Apps with all proper working customization tools
since we own the niki, we all love eye candy stuff. So if something looks awesome and don't impact on performance too much, consider it.
some kind of working card export thing
system tweaks that make the niki a bit faster. consider to spent more ram to get more speed (some cache values and such things)
how about google maps
not to mention that working gps would be really great
get rid of those MS Live Apps
Well... this list is quite long I guess. Consider this a cheeky wishlist .
Cheers,
jekk

the funny thing about this is that if it didnt exist at all like in the excalibur there would be ALOT of users screaming to have this functionality . After getting used to the T9 function I really dont mind it.
having said that a 4 sided cube that dont resemble the iphone would be great. and then the obvious is a big storage rom without the ext-rom.
Why do you guys want that third party soft like point ui or similar will be installed?
If a new version is released u have to install the new pointui in userspace.
Then u have lost double space.
I would prefer to remove all apps that can be installed by yourself.
Even Live Mobile or HTC Apps.
Then everybody can install what he needs and save space.
Also u can remove soft if there is something newer if it's not in the ROM.
If it's in ROM it's lost space and u have to flash a new ROM erverytime a app
is released in a new version if u need more space.
And that means to install everthing u need again and again.
Pls do a stable and good Rom with only the needed things,
for additional apps in newest version we have threads like the HTC Apps Thread.
Is it possible to have it contain more than 1 language keyboards/text input? I know have an English version, and it would be usefull for me to be able to use xt9 in Dutch.

j/k
sorry 4 spam Tom, just had to
I came up this morning with one more things that i would love to have in my phone:
the possibility to use two dictionaries at the same time (primary and secondary). i.e. :If you write a word in T9 that it is not recognize by the first dictionary T9 tries to see possible matches with the second one..
ciao
thanks for cooking the Niki Project ROM!
these are the things that I want to be included in the ROM (if possible)
- WIFI & GPS Workaround
- Disable XT9
- Be able to map keypad buttons (IE button as "OK/Close" (16 keys))
- FM receiver
- Removable Storage workaround (WM5 Storage/Card Export)
good luck on the project!

have you phone attached to your pc via active sync.. and go to the link above on your PC (not your phone)
you will down an MSI file onto your pc, install that and it will "talk" to your phone and magic will then happen..
read the info on the link above it will tell you what you need..
good luck. ( i was in your position last week... so know what you are going through)
thanks a lot for your help everybody. I'll try it as soon as I get home. can't wait for fool around with registry. by the way I'm using touchflo 3d, does anyone notice shortage of battery life? also the phone freeze sometimes with other panels

Guys will this conflict with my device in any way?
I don't want to experiment...
Will this really eat 33MB of my memory??
So, nobody here installed this???
Guys, did anybody install this .NET Compact Framework 3.5 on Xperia?
What are the possible problems with this? I don't want to screw my phone.
