How do you skin the calc/comm mgr/keyboard? - Mogul, XV6800 General

How can you skin these things like some of the ROMs have? Do you need to build them into the /(9 and reflash, or can you apply them to the phone whenever?
I d/l'ed the touch keyboard and installed it, but it doesn't work, my old keyboard comes up, and I can,t even uninstall it. So I wanted to ask about the other stuff before I continued experimenting

VJBigPhone, T-Mobile Videobutton on MDAPro

Hi all,
I am aware about all the other threads but yet could not get across some nonsense on my MDA Pro.
I went back to the t-Mobile ROM because of german support on many features but running ozVGA now successfully with two exceptions:
1. Each time I reset the device, I have to reinstall vjbigphone (0.91) and re-run the .exe to get my dialer back to full screen. VJ did a real got job, but I hope anyone coud tell me, what could be wrong?
2. Does anyone know, how to get rid of the stupid and ugly video-button in the t-mobile dialer? I replaced all BMPs with the one's from iMate, but yet video is the stupid grey. flat button.
Once this is solved, I will write down exactly how to get really the tiny machine running with the best tools for best results.
Greetings

ndee: why do you have to re-install the app?
After a soft reset, what happens when you choose the "load and fix" option from the tray?
I am hoping to spend some time on this app over the next few days. Many apps being fixed, one a at time...

Hi Vijay,
when I softreset, everything on the phone is back to the tiny layout. Even though I "load and fix".
Only workaraound I figured out is reinstall :-(
ndee
Strange - I know we spoke about this before, but then, after you re-install it works?
Have you tried not loading VJBigPhone, soft reset, load the phone (eg press green key, so you can see Tiny buttons) and then load VJBigPhone. Does that make any difference? Re-installing shouldn't make any difference, it doesn't load any settings etc from the registry etc...

I have some similiar problems. I'm using also the neweset german ROM on my MDA Pro and after a soft reset I don't have to reinstall the app, but I have to close it and restart it again to gain access to the phone application. Without close VJBigPhone nothing happens, after starting the application again everything works fine (till the next soft reset, which happens every morning after the daily backup)
Wolfgang
I have an idea what might be the problem then.
The code was modified a while back to try to find the "phone" program without you having to specify the name in your own language (eg "telefon" instead of "phone"). However, it's possible that if the phone isn't found, it's getting confused. I'll try to look at the code again soon.
I'm not writing any new programs for a while while I do updates to all the old stuff
V
out of sudden, I dont need to reinstall anymore. Just after reset, I run vjbigphoneres and phone comes up full screen. Dont know what I did and how long it will last - keep you informed though - thx so far.
Any solution for the ugly video button of TM insight?
ndee
TM Button: I know you've spoken about it for a while, but I've got no experience of it, I don't really use my Universal I think someone (you?) posted one before, but could you send me a screenshot if you've got appropriate software, and if you have them, a zip of your extended rom?

cabs extracted from diamond2

i have installed this nice keyboard HTC EzInput v.2.0 and when i tryed to uninstall it i had a very unpleasent surprise: the standard keyboard of HD dissapeared
in fact every option involving keys vanished
i could not restore my keyboard despite anything i tryed
can somebody suggest a solution to that?
similar thing with htc calculator, cute indeed, but it manage to make my device extremely slow and i ended to hard reset my HD in order to get rid of the damn thing
another example is the htc album2 by smaberg that i can't uninstall from my device or htc album v.2.5. or v.3.0 (i don't remember who made those)
v.2.5. remains in vga mode if you open camera and try to launch album from there and v.3.0 doesn't even start on my HD
i don't want to hard reset my device again, because i just did that 3 days ago, and i took a whole day to restore everything back, so, i kindly ask any of you to suggest following:
1. how to restore my original keyboard(s) back - MOST IMPORTANT
2. how to uninstall smaberg album
3. how to get the full use of the new album application
i am kindda of p****d of these cabs extracted from diamond2 or other new devices because they don't seems to work right with hd and i want to warn you on these matters
i fully appreciate the work of the skilled people who manage to produce tose applications for the rest of us, and i thank them for the efforts, but it seems that it need some more fine tuning before release them on the wild
cheers to everybody!
1. Download the normal htc keyboard in this post (5th item in list): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3317998&postcount=3
Should work
Not sure about the others sorry.
thank you xmsnx for tip, but i can't install it
i uninstalled ex keyboard, i deleted a lot of things, no matter what i did, each time i've got the same message:
"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or settings cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions."
what is that and how can i overcome it?
btw, i managed to uninstall smaberg album with sktools, so point 2 - checked
Install a process/task manager, and kill the SIPGT_app.exe process and try again. Worked for me once before when I had a prob with the keyboard. Hope it helps.
it worked!
now i am not so pleased because keyboard, being a cab, takes space from my memory
but i will learn to live with that untill the next hard reset that our too delicate piece of .... (art, watch out what your thinking) it seems to need from time to time
thank you again! you are the man!

My Rain Of Questions. 8 Hardcore questions

Hello,
I'm getting really excited about my HTC P4350 more and more. First I wanted to throw it away but since I started tweaking now 2 months. I got a series of questions.
1) Would it be faster in speed. To native install software like advanced config etc.
2) Where can I find a series of unlock screens?
==> S2U2 "iPhone-like Unlock Screen" = NO GOOD. Makes the HTC Freak
3) Anyone got a series of keyboards to replace the stupid looking standard one. So I can just type on the screen instead of using the pen. 'I installed one previously and it went fubar when i selected it it was just a white screen with no keyboard showing and another one i installed when i pressed the keys nothing happend.
4) Also I've installed "MotoV2Wing6.5" in previous ROM's I could install instantly the "cool" black bars instead of the classic. But with this rom they won't install, any suggestions. Also the blue skin wich is used in menu's "me no like" so I was hoping that could be turned into black.
5) After booting the splash screen and the boot screen there's a white window before the phone starts. Any idea how to get rid off that.
6) Like in windows OS there is the command line : msconfig, to select start up programs is there any way of leaving out programs to get the HTC to start up quicker.
7) The bootscreen and the splash screen. Are they both necessery will the phone be faster if you leave one of them out. And how you do that.
8) I saw on a pic that someone had changed the color of the keyboard is that possible without opening the htc?
9) And one of the most important questions. The keyboard I've download a dutch keyboard fix, since I think that I have a dutch P4350 (I think) but the fn keys are still showing up ****ed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366756). So my keyboard is like this.

That's the first line.
As final statement. I really support this forum, I like it very much it's kind to his users and very helpfull. I really want to stress 2 to respect the "Cooks" because what they do is Pwn Windows in everyway and they always want to build better and faster Rom's and that takes a lot of personal time. And I think what they do is really GREAT. So what I am tryin to say is.
THANKS A LOT!!! <3
Best and kind regards,

as far as your keyboard goes there are 2 options that work fairly well one is imselector it can be found here no pics but you have several options for the type and style keyboard you want, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296455
another option is something that i just started to use and love it, its called fingerboard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487677
and as far as replacing your splash screen ivan has just posted a topic on this and here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487677
your best way to get around is to just read the threads, yeah you may skim through lots of stuff ou may already know, dont understand or dont need but youll learn to navigate around those issues once your more familiar with things, good luck have fun

I got a questions, the first screen is the splash screen or the boot screen?
Answer to 1)The ROM that you have chosen is inherintly slow because of the Moto Home stuff. They tax both the RAM and the processor terribly.
Answer to 2)Just use the lock screen that comes built in with WM6.5. It's simple and just works.
Answer to 5)That white box you see is some kind of error, re-flash to a different ROM or hard reset to make it go away.
Answer to 6)Just navigate using file explorer to ROOT\Windows\Startup and delete whatever you don't want to run at startup there. Please note that there may not be alot here, and most if not all of the HTC stuff NEEDS to run at bootup in order for your device to work.
Answer to 7)Yes, they are both neccesary. If you remove them, all you will see is a black screen for the same amount of time that you saw the splash screens. While these screens are shown, the OS is being loaded into RAM, so its a neccesary thing.
Answer to 8)No, you cannot change the color of your keyboard without taking it out of your device.
Answer to 11)PHM Registry editor. Its small and just works.
boot screen then splash screen

I've been stupid - Swype and Phone Lock

Hi,
I've been stupid. The HD2 isn't the first Windows Mobile device I've owned, and I should know better than to download software off of the internet.
I downloaded Swype from a website, 1800pocketpc or something like that. I've no idea what version, but it's basically changed my phone password, so now I can't even get into my device to uninstall it.
Most of the posts I've seen online have said the only way around this is a hard reset. Can someone else see if they can give me another option (i.e if they know what Swype changes the password to, etc).
Any help would be massively appreciated!
sounds like the 3.9 version (kind of light grey?) which changes passwords on machines that dont report a t mobile base rom.
There are several threads, and like you, i haven't yet seen a sucessfull outcome that didn't include a hard reset.
If you want to play with swype (its great) look for the one ripped from the omnia.(version 2, i think, , , )
There is a version that works on the non-Tmo phones, can upload if requested.
For the problem you are experiencing, you need to replace modelname.txt in the windows directory if you can access it. I'm not sure if you mean the SIM lock or phone PIN, if its SIM you can cancel and overwrite the file; if the latter I do not know a way around it. Sorry.
I had the same with a custom ROM from here and the Swype cab to go with it. I did a hard reset and installed Swype, then set the pin code back. No problems since.

cannot find one or more components

I just recently upgraded from windows mobile 6.1 to windows mobile 6.5 on a htc touch dual (neon 300). Everything is great so far, but i have a couple problems i noticed since then and i was hoping someone here might have the knowledge to help me out.
1) First thing, was when i tried to enter the cube or whatever its called by gliding my finger from the bottom of the screen up, the error "" comes up, and i have to press the middle button to get it to go away and be able to use the touch screen again.
2) Second thing i noticed, was I installed a chinese input keyboard, but it will not let me change the keyboard to the chinese one. when i click on it to change it, it just goes back to the regular english keyboard automatically. I tried to change it in settings personal, input, but it when i exit, it just goes back to the regular keyboard. for some reason, it actually worked one time and the main keyboard was the chinese one, but then i changed it back because i wanted to just be able to change to the chinese keyboard, not have it as my main keyboard, now it won't work again.
3) So I searched around, found a program called SIPchange, installed it. didn't work. when i restarted my phone, the error "" came up, so i'm figuring there must be some problem related to all of this.
I did a lot of searching and couldn't find anything helpfull. I got a new biotouch.exe file that was supposed to replace my old biotouch, but there is no biotouch.exe file in my phones memory (and i turned on show all files including system files)
I would be greatly appreciative of any sort of help, thank you very much!
