Vogue Side Volume Slider Adjustment - Touch CDMA General

Does anyone know if there is a way to adjust the HTC Touch volume slider sensitivity? It seems when i try to use it, it jumps way to much making it impossible to find a comfortable audio level.

This thread can be deleted as I noticed my thread must have posted twice. Does anyone know how to delete a thread. Is it admin only? Thanks

Vibrate Upon Every Touch

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,...)?

Volume steps are too large

Does anyone know how to change the increments that the volume changes by when using the volume buttons. They increase/decrease too much for me (increments too large). I know you can use the screen but when using the buttons you don't get this granularity/smaller step in volume

i moaned about this a while back, it's dumb, but no one seemed to agree
Use your finger ? lol
You can also change to the "sense music volume slider" (the green one with smaller steps) by reading a little here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616917
(it doesn't work in all applications though, but most!)
I have to agree, the steps are to large. I allways have to take my phone up and use the finger to adjust it to where i want it. I know ppl say "use ur finger etc" but since the buttons are there it should't be necessary to use ur finger.

exactly, i've used my finger to bring the volume up, why do i then have to use another finger to adjust it, its balls is what it is, balls lol
Folks, I looked at the posting that was provided and it offers another screen control for the volume. What I find strange is that with all the expertise on this forum all the great Roms, Cabs, and other ingenious registry tweaks etc nobody has found a way to modify the increments (which are obviously there) to be made available to the physical volume controls.
I suspect this is because it hasn't been investigated by many as it has not been seen as something in demand. However I would like to say that it is in demand and I'll give you my reason for its request. I have my device in the car in a phone holder and when driving I wear headphones (not HTC headphones). I often need a more granular ability to change the volume through the physical controls without looking at the screen so I can keep my eyes on the road.
I am sure there are many more instances such as this where people need this.
So if there is anyone out there that can help I am sure there would be many more people than on this thread that would give thanks once such a method is discovered.
hmmm...nobody any idea how to get the volume steps smaller?

I agree that the steps are also too large! I cant' seem to change it to smaller increments.
Bump. +1
Just seen this. I often use the volume rocker when my phone is in my pocket, or when I cannot look at the screen. 1 bar increments please!
please.. we really need this..
Bumpation. This would be extremely helpful, especially when listening to music.Or ever.
... +1!
+1. Still no one found it out

Screen sensitivity after T-MO Rom update

I have been patiently waiting for the update that was made available yesterday afternoon so I downloaded and updated my phone. Since it resets everything I really didn't get around to doing much with it last night. This morning I started to get my phone setup and noticed the sensitivity seems to have worsened, sometimes considerably, over what I had before.
Scrolling has become less responsive, the X (close) button needs to be pressed a few times rather frequently, the buttons on the bottom row of the screen do not seem to respond very well either anymore, and lastly it just doesn't quite feel the same. Of all the problems I have been having with my HD2, screen sensitivity (accuracy could be a bit better) was not one of them until now.
Is there a way to calibrate the screen that I was not able to find on the phone? Anyone else notice any difference after updating?
Thanks in advance for any help!
I'm having the same issue but over all the new ROM is more stable.
Align
Start > Settings > All Settings > System > Scroll down to Align
Cheers
Also look for an App called TouchMark (think I found it on OMarket).
Neat little App that shows you exactly where you are touching the screen.
Maybe you have lost your touch
Also I use BsB to lower sensitivity of the screen which assists me greatly with typing.
Thanks for the tip but the "align" button is not in that folder on my phone. I searched and didn't find it anywhere else either.
After having a full day use with my phone the screen sensitivity is still a bit flaky, I would say it is worse than it was before I upgraded the rom. As for stableness, I have had several random data disconnects and small lags here and there that I didn't notice before. Unfortunately the audio lag has not been fixed. I should quit while I am ahead.
The summary is I want them to get the basic functionality of the phone to work and in doing so, please do not mess up the few things that are working, such as screen sensitivity. I am curious how long before the next rom update.
On a separate note, does anyone know where we can see a list of what they fixed in this rom?
Thanks!
Align?
Start > Settings > All Settings > System >"""screen""',, then align on mine hd2
??? are people on this thread a little confused??
going to the screen settings is NOT going to fix what the rom update did... the scrolling is considerably worse... not the accuracy...
for some reason, when i scroll through things.. its slow, laggy, and choppy.. its probably the most ridiculous "update" ever.. it simply made the phone worse... i wish i could go back to my previous rom.. before the official update.. i had absolutely NO problems with the scfreen sensitivty.. in fact.. i had no issues with it at all.. don't even know why i upgraded... pity...
and there is a fix thread floating around the TMobile HD2 forusm somewhere.. but that fix doesn't even get it remotely close to how it used to be.. now if someone could report exactly what the settings are on the stock TMoUS rom in the registry BEFORE updating to the official update.. it would help out enormously for the hackers who can fix what TMo has done to our phones...
people people dont fret!! just install HD2Tweak and look for the option that allows you to increase sensitivity and there ya go! there are 4 levels of sensitivity and i set mine to high and its perfect.
Iquigley- Unfortunately I do not have a "Screen" button in my system folder...
Just to clarify my original post in case it was confusing, although I believe accuracy could be better I did not notice a change in the accuracy of the screen, just a drop in sensitivity. Scrolling now has a tendency to stick and launch an app instead of actually scrolling. That doesn't seem to be happening as much now so I might have just adjusted to the new "feel" of the phone.
Can anyone confirm that it is just a setting that needs to be changed? At this point I avoid adding new apps to the phone if possible since I am afraid it will break something :s
Thanks!
The screen option in settings is hidden on the T-Mobile HTC HD2. You can make it visible in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Pen
Set the value of "Hide" to 0 (currently it is 1). Then the screen option will be visible in the system folder under all settings.
i went to do the registry change and cant find pen under control panel, is it under another sub folder?
Thanks Tobiascrystal. I am confused why they would have that hidden in the first place. I have been trying to avoid having to change registry settings but I might just be shooting myself in the foot by doing so. I will check it out.

Home Screen Tabs

Hi,
Anyone know if there's a registry hack to remove the Home and Settings options from the home screen tabs at the bottom of the home screen? I actually use Settings a bit, but the Home option makes no sense to me. Not only is there a hardware button that takes you to the home screen, but as far as I can tell, the home screen tabs only appear on the home screen anyway, kinda making the option pointless! I'd prefer to put the settings option on one of my quicklinks instead to free up some space on the home screen tabs (I like a nice tidy maximum of 5 down there to prevent the need to scroll) and assume that if a registry hack exists, both options would sit in the same area.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Don't do it
There was a thread about it, but you would have to search for it. I don't remember anymore wharmt exactly the titel was.
I came from the same side and tried to remove the HomeTab.
1st point: it worked.
Sideeffect: not only the button in the slider vanished, but also the complete Homescreen.
So, it's better you leave the fingers off this topic.
If you want to find the thread, just search for all my posts (there aren't so many). This might be the easiest way to find it.

never mind, just reread your q, lol please ignore me.
careful
Only if your a pro , dont touch registries. Enjoy your phone and hope all is well.

Volume Indicator takes over screen

I'm not sure how other Rhodiums are set up...but the Tilt2 has the rather annoying feature of 'full screen' pop up volume indicator always coming up when you press the volume buttons. But in a very select few programs just a sidebar pops up...almost like a mini version. Is there any registry setting to change to make the 'mini' one the default?
This cab works for me....

I actually prefer the full screen version, it is easy to use with the finger. Touching to the left or right of the volume indicator will remove the display and go back to your normal screen.

Does this make it smaller, or remove it? Reading it over, it seems that the latter is the case.

It removes it. I like it, the volume buttons are more responsive instead of take a second or 2 to actually change, and the full screen is annoying.
I was bored at work and decided to poke around the registry to see if I could figure this out. I think I'm on to something. When you go to: /HKLM/SOFTWARE/HTC/VolumeOverlay/InhouseEnable2ndUI there are a bunch of folders for apps on the phone. I went into Manila and set it to 2 and then went back to the home screen (I have Sense 2.5 active) and had a little volume bar at the top of the screen when I went to change the volume. I may try to add other apps and see if it works, but I'm lazy, so I might just go play some tower defense instead. Hope this helps get someone else a little more motivated to help. hehe

Setting this value to "1" will give you the slim vertical slider on the left of the screen, but this slider is not operable by touch on the screen, it is only a visual aid to let you know where your volume is at when you press the vol up and down hardware buttons.
