Hello,
I've got a litte problem with every version of iGO8 on my Touch Pro 2.
The backlight is never on the maximum level.
I always use my phone with maximum backlight but when iGO8 run the backlight is only at 50% even if I set the slider in the options menu to the maximum. It's like iGO8 can't use the maximum backlight of the phone.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks a lot!
My experience is that backlight cannot be done by iGO8. I don't use this setting in the program, but am using Phone weaver to do this for me (volume, backlight, power - all changed when on AC power and no ActiveSync (=in car holder))
Use iGoLuncher to run the app. it solves the problem.

I'm sorry but I don't unsderstand what you mean by "Use iGoLuncher"
I made a new device in the data.zip; copied the file 'HTC Touch Pro T7272.ini' in config/devices and named it HTC Touch Pro 2.ini.
Now changed the line of maximum backlight to this:
backlight_max = 15
so the complete file is this:
Code:
info_names="HTC Touch Pro 2"
;Copied from HTC Touch Pro T7272
[gps]
port=4
baud=57600
[device]
SDCard_dsk_num=7
[rawdisplay]
highres=0
autoconfig=1
driver="gx"
screen_x=800
screen_y=480
[power]
backlight_manage_values=1
backlight_max = 15
backlight_min = 0
backlight_reverse = 0
backlight_key_bright_BA1 ="Brightness"
backlight_key_bright_AC1 ="ACBrightness"
backlight_key_timeout_BA = "BatteryTimeout"
backlight_key_timeout_AC = "ACTimeout"
backlight_key_ontap_BA = "BacklightOnTap"
backlight_key_ontap_AC = "ACBacklightOnTap"
backlight_key_on_BA = "OnOff"
backlight_key_on_AC = "ExtOnOff"
backlight_methods = 1 , 25
backlight_events = 1, 5, 7
backlight_slow_api=1
Now insert into sys.txt:
Code:
[device]
type="HTC Touch Pro 2"
Hope this helps!
no problems on mine.. nevertheless, thanks a lot bright.light your name is simply perfect for a topic like this!

Bright.Light I just want to say... Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
Everything works like a charm on iGO8 now^^
I have just added the line backlight_max = 15 on my sys.txt and it's ok. I don't have created an new device, I delete the device folder everytime I download iGO8 to keep iGO8 the lightest as possible.
By the way, what is the purpose of ;

That's maybe because it's not needed? I don't know what it does, so won't download, but some others will try it and come to the conclusion it's not needed.

Yes, you are right - this should do it. Everything in those config files is overruled by sys.txt (when it's in the sys.txt, that is)

There are many ways to do this, but I just use Resco Explorer because it's the easiest for me. When you click and hold on an item, you get a menu that allows you to select Send To - Start Menu as Shortcut.

I don't know about other versions, but iGo 8.3.4.102680 works just fine on my Touch Pro2. No problems on any ROM build that I've thrown at it.
Thanks,
Nate
8.0 works fine on my TP2...no sys jack isht needed
On the subject of versions, my sys.txt power section only has 3 lines:
powermgm_state=0
backlight_day=100
Backlight_night=65
How does any of that relate to "max"?
v8.3.4.102680

Sir Charles!!
I applied these yesterday and I believ you have something....but I wonder if it's catchy. LOL
I left my connections on all night (BT/wifi), talked for 90 minutes to my friends and family, listened to music on pocket player for an hour and a half and now, 24 hours later I still have 50% battery.
I usually don't activate my connections until I use them and typically don't call too many people on this phone (I have a sucky corporate phone), but it seems all this added activity has not had anywhere near the impact I normally would expect.
I'll spread the word and see if more folks won't give this a try on their Shadows.
Meanwhile....Thanks!!

Well I have installed already and testing, post results later
Thanks,
I downloaded the .cab and attempted to install. The install was unsuccessful- anyone know why that might be? Could my registry be locked? I am using WM6.1_V1b_by_Erofich.
So, no feedback yet ?
What kind of feedback are you looking for? I use it, I recommend it. This should be the first thing you install on your shadow.
Hmm ok, so does it work for diamond ?
Um, no... that's why it's posted in the Shadow/Juno forum and not the Diamond forum.
Actually, all of the registry keys are present in both the touchscreen and non-touchscreen editions of WM 6.1.
So the CAB installer may not work, but the actual registry fix should.
I am trying this on my Wizard and will edit later to post how it works out.
#edit to add#
Works great on both my Wizard and my Juno.
I think that these should work for any WM 6.x build.
Ok thank's, i will try these settings !

I'm feeling bored, so i'll go in to what these keys do.
Basically all of these are power management keys, which allows the phone to turn devices/connections off when not in use.
If you want, you can take my word for it, otherwise you can use the links.
AsyncMac is The NDISWAN implementation in Windows Embedded CE
IrSIR = Infrared Serial Driver
PPTP and L2TP are VPN protocols.
I saw a cab somewhere in the Diamond thread which stopped the keyboard popping up whenever one opens an email , a text message, or something that might remotely require text input. I have spent the last couple of hours searching for it but to no avail. anybody know how to turn this facility off please?

nullkb is the program you are looking for
Here is a link: http://personales.ya.com/beemer/nullkeyboard.htm
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=dword:00000001
This is the regkey you've probably been looking for. Use it myself on my Diamond and works like a charm.
Excellent find - after a soft reset this works on the Kaiser too, much better than faffing around with nullkb and PQz et al.
I didn't manage to make it work on my Kaiser. Could you please explain me how to?
Thank you.

Yes! That works perfectly! Thanks a bunch.
For all you guys who can't find it (it didn't exist on my Tilt):
In HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip, you need to to create a new Value. Name it, "TurnOffAutoDeploy" (without the quotes), make it a DWord, and set the value to 00000001, like MRE-net said. Save it, soft reset, and it works like a charm.
Great find mate. Thanks again.
Ok guys; I must be stupid!
I've just tried it (again) and it still doesn't work!!!
When I create the new DWORD value, Task Manager asks me if I want it Hexadecimal or Decimal... I tried both but no one fits.
So, please, could you explain it again )
Thanks a lot!
Abundance of options
Gentlemen
many thanks, problem solved.

Make sure it is Decimal and just fill in 1 and not 0000001. 1 = on 0=off
Also make sure the new key you've created is a DWord and not a StingValue.
Alternatively you can copy the attached DisableKeyboardPopUp.txt file to your device import it into your registry. Make sure you rename the file to DisableKeyboardPopUp.reg
Thanks MRE-net! I have been looking for this as well.

You have to have the Igo basemap in your maps as well as Countries. This is what is causing the clicking. You can find it if you search in the right places. Make sure it is either 8.0 or 8.3 depending which version you are using..

Cool, will try to download basemap asap. Would i put this in the maps folder?
Also, would i need a basemap for each map?
thanks
iGO basemap...
Just place it in the same place as your UK map. There is only one Basemap, it covers all of western Europe..
Disable key sounds from iGo.
Settings->Sound->Key Sounds
Please use the search functionality.....
Edit your sys.txt file and add:
[sound]
queue_length=200
ding=0
The line in bold is the one that stops the ticking sound...
iGO Clicking..
It is not the clicking of the keys he is referring to...

exactly.
That's why he should include the setting in the sys.txt that I suggested.
IGO clicking..
Look, the Basemap is an integral part of the functionality of iGO, it links the ferries etc. Changing the sys. txt will do nothing..

Correct - the sys.txt change will stop the annoying DING that is played before every instruction (Ding - turn right into XXXX, ding - at the roundabout take the 3rd exit, ding, ding bl***y ding!!).
Correct - the basmap.fbl is an integral part of iGO8 and must be put into the map folder within content, but i don't know if that is causing the clicking - probably.

I downloaded a basemap and put it in the maps folder but it still didnt fix the clicking issue... maybe i downloaded the wrong basemap..
Looby, can you please PM me a link to a site that will allow me to download a basemap for version 8.3?
Try adding in your sys.txt the following:
[sound]
mute_os_key=1
Untick Hardware buttons in Settings/Sound&Notifications.It has no use on Blackstone anyway
here is solution for your problem : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2957695#post2957695
S.
I had the same problem, iGO8 was 'clicking' like I continously touched the screen.
After deleting the save folder which contains system.ini the problem was solved.
Only thing is that you need to set your preferences again.
So I did that to, as I came upon the Power Management I wanted it to be Backlight always on.
Then the 'clicking' came back?!?!?
After setting it back to Use device settings the clicking was gone?!?!
Now I have iGO8 v8.3.2.93112 installed and with v8.3.2.97313 prior to dis installation it also 'clicks'.
Right away I will try v8.3.2.97313 again but with my save folder and system.ini and only change Power management.
With v.8.3.2.8 and lower i didn't had this problem.
I'll keep ya all informed.
[edit]:
V8.3.2.97313 works also without clicking after modifying the system.ini from the save folder.
[power]
powermgm_state="2"
Works now, when i set it to "0" iGO8 'clicks' again.
Sincerely,
Tom.
Disable Screen Taps/Hardware buttons sounds from sounds and notifications, weird huh ?

there is a specific thread that solves this

Use my script
you must install mortscript and run this
*********************
Switch (question ( "Arrancar Igo8 na Horizontal","Arranque Igo8","YesNo"))
Case(YES)
Orient = "landscape"
Case(NO)
Orient = "portrait"
EndSwitch
IniWrite("\Storage Card\iGO8\save\system.ini", "rawdisplay","class", Orient )
Run ("\Storage Card\iGO8\HD2-iGO8-Multitouch-" & Orient & ".exe")
RunWait ("\Storage Card\iGO8\iGO8.exe")
Sleep 500
Kill ("\Storage Card\iGO8\HD2-iGO8-Multitouch-" & Orient & ".exe")
*********************
woah! that's impressiv toyjeep!
keko001 if you prefer a simple solution to use iGO8 in landscape just add these lines in \iGO8\save\system.ini:
[rawdisplay]
class="landscape"
plain and simple!
Thanks for the reply but is not anything likea cab or something (would be very nice )'m not so good in ini files

Hi keko001
You only need to use a text editor to copy and paste from this thread into the ini file.
If you go to any of the igo resources on the web they tell you how to do lots of things with this process.
I recommend that you try this as there are lots of good skins.
The source i used was right here on xda in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search_rop.php?searchid=32093108
but you have to look
the mortscript idea is cool but overkill
