Hi All
I've got an O2 XDA Mini S which I've set up using the corporate option, so I no longer have the O2 Software running.
Whenever I start a new conversation in MSN messenger, the soft keyboard pops up, even if the real keyboard is exposed.
This is really annoying as I have to minimise the soft keyboard on every new conversation.
Can anyone help?
Driving me mad! :roll: LOL
D'Oh!
Just tried to make a word document and it's doing the same thing!!!
GRRRRR!
I have tried setting the input options from keyboard to phonepad and it's still doing it.
just start typing (DON'T click it away!). for me after that it remembers that i don't want to use the onscreen keyboard.
OK, so I just rebooted the machine and it's not popping up now.
However, the MSN chat window is all squashed up at the top of the screen... As if there was a softkeyboard there.
I think I'm going to have to get used to the occasional reboot on this!
Thanks for your quick response!
Clicking on the SIP button in the bottom right should disable the soft keyboard, and according to some, it should retain that setting. I don't have a Wiz so I can't confirm, but one way or the other, it might help you to install a dummy SIP. PHM Tools installs one.
PHM Ext. Keyboard SIP PowerToy
The PHM Ext. Keyboard is an empty input panel you can use when you have an external keyboard connected (such as thumb, collapsible, foldable, wireless, ... keyboard) and do not want an input panel to take valuable screen estate.

yah this annoys me as well, when browsing in landscape and BOOM this keyboard that covers have the screen pops up! you can't even see what yoru typing...
anyway i remember reading a fix for this somewher, but it was before i got the device. anyone know where its at?
Hey, I changed mine from keyboard to the transcriber, it doesn't seem to popup now and it also give a full screen while on msn rather than only half screen where the keyboard should be.
Just tried this... Thanks!
It gives more of the screen available to MSN, but still not full screen for me.
If I click on the transcriber icon at the bottom of the screen, then click on it again to minimise it, I then get full screen.
Weird problems!
want to try the PHM Ext. Keyboard SIP PowerToy but theire website is down since some time. Could anybody please upload the files in this forum or somewhere else? (eg RapidShare.com,...)
THX!!!
CIAO!

PHM tools
I think they're all down for updates.
Here's a zip of all of them.

so what exactly does that do? i don't want to install anything that can be solved by a reg edit. (dont have a mem card yet)
Fone - one of the cabs installs a dummy SIP called external keyboard or something. It's for people that use external keyboards, basically don't one the built in ones popping up all the time.
It's small, I'd install it if you have a need. If you really don't need the built in keyboards and want a registry only solution, you can disable the SIPs through the registry. Not recommended though.

Alternatively, as it's just 1 install:
http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/nullkeyboard.shtml
( could probably hack apart the PHM tools CAB just as well )
thanks a lot, just what i needed!!
CIAO!
VOODOOS!L
Excellent! Works a treat!! Thank You.
Ahh, null keyboard is by beemer. He's a great coder, check out his today plugins for wondrous pleasures.
These null keyboard type things do pretty much the same thing, ie nothing. However, if you're really geeky, Brighthand forums has a large review of a number of them. Use whatever works though.
V
its ok, i'll go ahean and install it. i just thought somehow someone could make a couple regedits that would tell the device if in landscape dont show onscreen keyboard. but i guess its more complex than i thought.
short of intercepting it, I don't think so
Technically, software needs to check they keyboard status, and then suppress the SIP from popping up when activating text entry elements (stuff's in MSDN somewhere). Thing is - most people are either too lazy to do so, or aren't aware of any need to do so, or just don't know they -can- do so
There is a registry entry (at least in mine) HasExtKeyboard or something to that effect. I set it from 0 to 1, but it does nothing. Do a registry search for it. Perhaps someone can make a SIP that will normally not pop up anything, but with a keystroke or a tap on the icon will pop it up when you need it.
I'd just like a slim SIP that would have keys like Cut/Copy/Paste/Undo, etc.

will this version work on qvga (240x240)? i remember the last version wasn't soo......? lol
missing link
The program looks good and it feels good. Maybe I'll make a mistake but (MDA TOUCH, WM6) The phone button responds with a error (File not found \windows\vtkey.exe). Same error when trying to use the battery button, \windows\power.exe.
Is there a solution ?
Now all we need is an iphone like photo viewer, what you can navigate with your fingertips..
Any idea?

NICE APP
Grumps,
VERY NICE APP. I am using it and it is great. Works well with S2U2 version too. My input for cometics only:
a. Can we put the operator name closer to the signal bar? This will allow room for other indicators such as Wifi and BT.
b. Can we have BT and Wifi indicator on the top bar? These two will make the SW going from COOL to WHOA!!!!!
Thanks and cant wait for your next release.

I can the only problem is what do we do if the operator name is too long mine is HSDPA Vodacom SA and I made it so its just fits??
If i make it smaller it might say HSDPA Vodaco or something and ill hear more people crying? Any suggestions
And yes only QVGA, I dont have a VGA device to develop with sorry
This is a great app except...
There's no animation when you launch something. Or highlight. So sometimes you press again while waiting for something to start up.
Can we please get some sort of feedback when it's accepted the fact you pressed a button? Not sure how this works on the fruit based phone but I'm sure there should be some feedback.
Thanks.
ok just want to say great app.
here are some suggestion for you on the next version.
add scrolling to the app so if you want to add more icons on one page you can.
let it pick up default icons from the programs so you don't have to waste anytime on picking an icon for it. (but you can if you want too.)
scroll with finger to go right or left to go to the next page.
i have some other ideas and i would like to share it with you. if you are interested please P.m.
thanks,
the changelog says it has animations now. I just can't see any. What is meant by "animation added"?
Great work anyways.
BTW: Being able to scroll only one of the horizontal lines from left to right would be great, for, let's say, less important apps. So you have 3 rows of static buttons and just one row that can be scrolled by finger gestures... Saw that on iPhone, looked amazing...
I Concur
IMO, it would be great to have a scrolling launch page. Either horizontal or vertical. Also, annimation and vibrate with icon color change to reflect program choice.
Does the calendar icon keep up with the actual date??
Thanks,
CG
Thanks for such a GREAT app - assigned a button to it and it works like a charm. I do have one question \ request: is it possible to move the title bar elements up a bit? I use an app to hide the Windows Start bar and the softkeys (it is one of Vijay's tools) and your app then acts as my home page for most running applications (there are a few exceptions but overall it works great). The only issue is that the elements on your app (clock, battery, signal indicator, etc.) are a little low (2 pixels or so) so things look a little "off". I was hoping it was or could be a user changable setting.
Please don't take this as a complaint! Your app, combined with S2U2 provide an excellent UI experience. Thanks again for such excellent work.

Good idea to assign it to a button, I was trying to figure out how to integrate it better as a complete solution. Only problem is that on the Touch there is only really one button I can use and I was using it for the Full Screen Keyboard and to hold it down to get voice dial. I'm sure I'll work something out though.
I saw the link in the first post talking about how to get the .lnk files right and I assume that means for the Phone/Calc/etc which do not have .exes that I can easily find. I'll do some research to get that working.
Thanks for a great app!
Thanks for the info

Grumps,
Thanks for the info. I can see the name is an issue. If it is moved left align one space right after the signal strength then it will be good even with the longer operator name. If it is done that way, then if the BT and WiFi indicators are needed, that is when they are turned on, then they can be arranged to the left of the clock. These will cover the last portion of the long operator name but I think it will be acceptable because many things operate in the same manner due to the fact that there is not enough space for everything.
Thanks again for this VERY NICE APP. IT ROCKS!
Is out (since 2/17) and works flawless at 96 DPI.
Fast, smooth, BIG contacts, nice skins
What's new:
- Category edit in contact
- Backspace button on phonepads
- New theme option in order to allow clean bubble
- Preloading of some image to allow smoother use
- Added menu to all panel, you can now choose the SIP while editing note or contact
- Performance enhancement
- Greatly enhanced performance in some scenarios
- SMS counter is back
- Bug fixes

EDITED
May be it is well known, but if you push PHONE button for more than 250 msec a menu' will appear. Releasing the button PocketCM minimize itself, moving the finger to the other button's area you can choose the options menu'
Have you successfully installed pocketCM 0.2 on your athena?
I've tried several times but I never succeed in. The installation process doesn't cause any problem but the program graphic is completely a mess. I' have tired to change the theme with a VGA-compliant one but it doesn't work well anyway. Can you explain me how have you exactely installed it? I feel kind of idiot, but i badly need a decent contact manager (and the default one, in my opinion, it is not decent at all).
HI.
I just installed PCM Contacts in my Athena. It is necessary to install in the same
directory the vga-test.zip file that can be found in the Theme section of their forum.
This version wants directly the .zip files instead of the old .ctm (?) ones.
Hope this helps.
Mauro
I'm also a user of PocketCM. It just looks perfect on my Athena running with 128dpi.
It ist Important to use a vga skin (.zip file in the Versions newer than 0.15) !!
They also offer a very usable SIP (PocketCM Keyboard) that i use as a default.
Everything is freeware ans runs without any problems on my Athena.
On good thin is that PocketCM and PocketCM Keyboard can easily be set to other languages (German in my case) just by using an other skin.
Thanks to everybody. I've installed the program and the VGA them but still there are some issues. In addition of being a little slow, when I tap on the phone button the keyboard doesn't show up correctly. Can you send me the theme that works on your device?

i've got pocketcm0.20 and i basically use it for its threaded sms function...is there a way to map the hardware message button to go directly to pocketcm's sms function page instead of the WM sms page...or when i get a new message and click read or something to go directly to pocketcm's sms service?

Please help me collecting the bugs from shipped hd2 roms (i sent this thread-link already to htc). I own a german version of the HD2.
Real Bugs that need to be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- calender wont go past 1.nov.2009 in week-view (monday set as first day of the week) fixed in 1.48
- g-sensor not working in titanium (no titanium landscape switch)
- notification LED doesn`t work
- connection to the internet without a timeout/break (gprs-disconnect timeframe should be larger)
- voice command does not work with a bluetooth headset
- volume of a stereo-bluetooth headset cannot be controlled. The device volume has no influence on the headset.
- storage card is called "storage card" instead of "speicherkarte" in the german rom (might cause problems installing apps)
- view music by recently added
- volume cant be adjusted during a call when in handfree mode (speaker on the back)
- overstearing speaker sound (back-speaker)
- purple center in pictures taken with the hd2-camera (htc is working on a hotfix)
- sporadic volume control failure in Music-tab/streaming-player fixed in 1.48
- audio-booster disabling itself after playing a song
- HTC Messaging takes all SMS's and stops them from being published on the "notification queue" that other programs can listen to
- Sms not being sent/delivered (can't confirm that, works for me)
Minor Flaws that should be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- 3g-button missing in comm-manager
- geotag (camera) is implemented but deactivated
- taskmanager quickmenu missing
- taskmanager icon missing in list (to assign quick button in sense-homepage)
- navigation panel link missing in startmenu
- taskbar icons (phcanoverbmp.dll etc.) from wm6.1. Should be the rounded edges/G/H/3G from wm6.5.
- facebook contact pictures and birthday should be saved in contact details (you loose the friends fb-pics and birthdays when disabling fb-sync-feature)
- opera zoom-slider and more tabs
personal opinions/wishes:
- save wasted space from the huge clock (smaller letters) and add 8 quick links (4/4) drop down to 16 links (4/4/4/4) (shortcuts on main page)
- ability to choose between background for all tabs or just the main sense-page.
- more contact shortcuts (20 instead 15; 4 icon rows)
- smaller webpage links in sense (3 or 4 icon rows instead just 2)
- playback support of avi-files (divx/xvid)
- solitaire link missing
- when pressing settings in startmenu i want to get to the startmenu-settings rather than manila-settings-page.
- battery percent icon instead of just 4 bars (taskbar)
Many things described can be fixed with regedit or total commander. See here.
You can also use BSB Tweaks to enable some features.
- notification LED doesn`t work
- connection to the internet without a timeout/break
- no way to make an owner information input
- microsoft voice command does not work with a bluetooth headset.
- when a stereo bluetooth-headset is connected, the volume of the headset cannot be controlled. The device volume has no influence on the headset.

Just looking at your first selection, these are not bugs!
Just because something isn't as you'd want it, doesn't make it a bug. A feature that you want but wasn't advertised as a feature and isn 't a feature is not a bug. Maybe the fact that it doesn't make my coffee is a bug??
Seriously, there are a handful of ACTUAL bugs, let's not go diluting things with this random nonsense.
divided the list (bugs/minor flaws/wishes).
please report back if you can find something else.
The htc sense bug for calendar can be fixed!
Found it on the o2 forums and if you change the layout to week starting on sunday then the problem is fixed. Also this is just a temporary fix also i do hate week starting sunday but it is solved by it!
A lot of these things can be changed using the tips/tweaks here
And a missing feature is NOT a bug. The calender issue is a bug. The Geotag camera not being implemented isn't a bug. It can be activated very easily in the registry.
I suggest you read the above thread, and then amend your post.
I found that I didn't need the Owner Information fix. It is now stored in your Contact card in Contacts. All of my Resco stuff is reading that fine.
Thanks to post issues that can help our cookers to cook a nice ROM for our device in order to be more accurate.

is anybody else experiencing some kind of lagging while playing music now and again?
hi there,
I'm a HD user... Just want to know that how does the HTC messaging work on the HD2?
When ported to HD, the program is very bugy as if you trying to restore about 300 msgs or more, the program will become very irresponsive and will take a long time to load and display the existing msgs everytime you open it up..
With long msg, the text will overlap with the date. Not sure if this is the case on HD2 as well. It could be a bug of the HTC messaging, or it could be that our HD is too slow to run it.. need you HD2 owners to conform that for me.
Thanks!
There's a nice default text selection tool included on the HTC HD2, an HTC Sense feature rather than a Windows Mobile one, which we've video demoed recently. It allows you to tap and hold on a text and bring up an adjustable selection box that you can spread to encompass the desired text.
You can further expand both the functionality and the eye candy of this feature by enabling the magnifier. To do that, edit your registry HKLM\Software\HTC\TextSelection\EnableMagnifier and change its value from 0 to 1. You'll get a nice magnified preview of a portion of the text allowing you to select text more easiliy. Wonder why HTC had that disabled out of the box?
from devs over pocket now...thanx
How about the volume rocker that stops to control volume in Manila Music tab or Youtube every once in a while?
Also, Manila music player crashes on too many people.
And finally, Audio Booster disables itself after each song (or when the phone is locked).

I guess I'm lucky not to have had any music player problems? I've been using my HD2 to play my music in the car and while studying at uni. What type of crashes do people experience?

+1 for sporadic volume control failure in Music-tab/streaming-player (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584242), and for the Audio Booster disabling itself.
I have some trouble with the HTC keyboard using some textfields in Opera. Sometimes, e.g. saving favorits, i cant type big letters in the titlebar. I tab on the caps-button to enlarge the first letter of the page name. But if i tab the letter on the Keyboard, my HD2 wrote the small one...
I encountered the same problem in some textfields like post replays in some forums. It seems its a problem with the T9 suggestion, but if i change it to ABC, the Bug doesnt disapear.
Hi all
I am kind of new to this, so I hope I have put the thread in the right place. I have searched for some of the answers, but can not find them, or the threads are 100s of pages long and knowing where to look is a nightmare.
I decided to update my phone with the latest official HTC Roms from their website (2.53.405.5 (76952) WWE). Unfortunately there are a few things that I like the old way, and now I am not sure if I can go back to the original Rom that came with the phone.
- I now can not use custom sounds for my message alerts, I have put them with all the others, and made them to be the same file size, mono and all that, and they don't show up. I can use them for ring tones, but not message alerts.
- I used to have the message alert light set to constantly flash until I had read the message, so if I am away from the phone I could tell I have a message. That bit is still there, but it is grayed out so I can't have it.
- When I lock, unlock the phone, go through the menus and go back to the "Today" screen the clock will go from say 10:13, to 09:13, then will roll forward to 10:11 and then the last two minute digits will roll over to 10:12, 10:13 again? Why is this.
- Is there any way of removing the weather from the "Today" screen, it looks very nice, but the phone seems to come to a grinding halt and that added with the time thing mentioned above is also very irritating.
If anyone knows ways around these it would be much appreciated, if not is there a way of returning to the original Rom that the phone came with, I notice the HTC website said it was not possible.
Thanks in advance.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"AvailableOptions"=dword:4000000F
+ SR and then you can change the value

Hi spigot, thanks for the help.
I have installed the cab for the silly rolling animation, and that has sorted that out.
I have installed a program called FdcSoft TaskMgr wm2005_3.1 to alter the registry values, and have found the "AvailableOptions" one, but don't seem to be able to alter it.

Drop the sounds you want for messages directly into thw windows folder. they will be available.
Thank you codhunter, it worked .
Not sure why they would change it between roms / versions, it used to go in the tones or whatever it was called with my original one.
Also your changing the value in available options to 15 for the message LED notification worked, couldn't work spigots out above.
Thanks
Glad to be of help
i'm just learning too, SQueal. Stick with the new rom. any problems you have will soon get ironed out with the helpful guys on here!!!
SQueal: Try to use TotalCommander with it's plugin registry editor. I did it many times without any problem.

how can I enter the registry with totalCommander?
You must download the plugin registry editor, using Total commander's settlings.

You don't need any plugins. Registry editor is part of total commander. If you press "\" button in uppert right corner (in total commander), you'll get to root part and the first folder is called "\\Plugins", there you can find FTP, LAN and registry editor plugins.
Has anyone else noticed how much smaller the sms text message is? You have the ability to change the text size for the ones you read, and the one in with the screen alignment, but the text still seems really small.
Is there a way of doing this in the registry as well?
