Start keypad minimized in SMS - Touch 3G General

I was wondering if there is a setting or registry tweek to stop the keypad / keyboard automatcally popping up when you open a msg from touchflo, S2U, .. etc.
Cheers!

You can use the freeware "Diamond Tweak" to set this an many other options without editing the registry.

Sounds good, il have a look but is there an option to stop it from showing. id rarther it not show until i select the icon or even better the text box.

Found the setting. cheers

Notification & Alarm sounds

On WM2003SE you could disable most of the sounds, but have things like the text message alert still sound.. WM5 appears to not allow this: turn off Notifications and new incoming text messages are also disabled.
This is really irritating because it means you either have sounds on, and get irritating bleeps WHENEVER you hit ANY button (it seems) - including the start button and any program you hit in the menu..... OR you have no sounds when using the device - but no warning of incoming texts.
Can this be solved??
start>settings>sound&notifications>notifications tab then untick the "play sound" box

If you mean the page with the drop down list of events..... there isn't an option for "Start menu"...
Currently trying (on the 'Sounds' Tab)
Events - unchecked
Programs - checked
- Notifications - checked
Screen Taps - unchecked
Hardware Buttons - unchecked
I THINK this is the way it should be for what I want: silent machine unless there's a message/call incoming.
Hi,
Check Sound Schemes and Waveform Audio registry settings @Microsoft (see below)
Works from CE4+. I use an empty sound scheme. Use tascal TRE for editting those REGSZ_MULTI's. Keep 21 lines (events in the scheme (even if the lines are empty!
Or set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume\Mute to 0x03.
Only use only WAV-files in \Windows. Sound schemes can be fun.
Why has nobody vere made a Sound Scheme Editor for Windows CE4+?
Should be easy to make.

Hiding System Sound Events
The following system sound events are available through the shell:
Asterisk
Close
Critical
Default
Empty
Exclam
Infbeg
Infend
Infintr
MenuPop
MenuSel
OpenProg
Question
Netbeg
Netend
Netintr
Startup
WindMax
WindMin
RecStart
RecEnd
The Wceshellfe.reg file contains a mask you can use to hide system sound events that do not apply to a target device. The following registry key allows you to set the mask to disable sound events.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event
".Scheme"=".DefaultSounds"
"EventMask"=dword:FFFFFF
"EventCache"=dword:300
;Scheme descriptions
".NoSounds"=multi_sz:"","","","","","","","","","","","", "","","","","","","","",""
".DefaultSounds"=multi_sz:"Asterisk","","critical","default","","exclam","infbeg","infend","infintr","","","","question","Netbeg","Netend","Netintr","startup","","",""
".AllSounds"=multi_sz:"Asterisk","Close","critical","default","Empty","exclam","infbeg","infend","infintr","MenuPop","MenuSel","OpenProg","question","Netbeg","Netend","Netintr","startup","WindMax","WindMin","RecStart","RecEnd"
;
In the registry key, the Scheme setting specifies the current sound scheme. The NoSounds, DefaultSounds, and AllSounds schemes are defined, and DefaultSounds is specified as the current scheme.
The EventMask allows events that do not apply to a target device to be hidden. The mask is a DWORD initially set to FFFFFF, which means all sounds are enabled. The following example shows show to set EventMask to disable Asterisk.
"EventMask"=dword:FFFFFE
The EventCache setting specifies the cache menu popup and menu select.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
remove sounds on events as the first tab in sounds and notifications.
I only have the second one down, the first disable screen taps and menu activations
i dont even like the phone tap sounds. i only have programs and notifications, but not events, screen taps or hardware buttons.
then i can control the sounds via the notification tab to choose custom sounds for every event i want.

How to Change XT9/ABC default settings?

I have the 20 Key Touch Dual (nike) and XT9 works great, but depending on what program you are using some applications start in "abc" mode by default. This seems dependant on what feild you are in; Subject feilds like a new calendar item always starts in "abc" mode, where notes and message feilds start in XT9. If you change the settings it will default back next time you open that application. Is there a way to change the default keypress settings to always start in XT9 for all feilds or a way to remember your preference inside each feild.
Anyone have a suggestions/tweak/fix?
Thanks-
Jcostanza4
i also need to fix this it is really annoying
I think you are right and that it's determined by the field or the application. I've noticed that it defaults to "abc" in fields and applications where non-standard (unusual) language is often used; i.e. calendar entries, phone book, connections settings fields, etc.
There must be a workaround though...
Does anyone found a solution to this??
It's really annonying to have to change everytime for having the xt9 enable. I found a sort of shortcut: long press on the button "*/xt9" and then press "1" but you have to do it each time...
Don't we have a good programmer who knows how to make cab to get rid of this??
i tried this, you can change the keyboard to the normal one, non new htc, this it will be of.
Guys it's simple use file explorer and go to Window\xT9Settings and click to launch settings menu there you can check on/off the following:
-Spell Correction
-Next Word Prediction
-Auto Substitution
-Word Completion
-Multitap Word Completion
Don't know why HTC have hidden it in the windows directory!! it should have been placed in the systems menu in any case you can always create shortcut for it in the programs menu.

But the is no option there to disable or enable xT9 in all applications.
I think this is the same issue as being discussed in this thread - maybe they should be merged.
Even though this thread is the 20-key version the way it reads to me we are all looking for the reg key(s) that set the behavior of xT9...

Im not looking to disable the XT9, but to enable it in every feild by default or ABC mode. Right now certain feilds default to ABC or XT9, so knowing which feild defaults to what is always a pain. If I get used to typing in one mode only everything would be smooth.
This is one of the biggest things that is bugging the hell out of me at the moment with this device. Everything else has been smooth, Really hope HTC fix this in the next version with either a user option to enable the mode you want to use. I am pretty sure that a registry edit could also do this.

Contacts Dilema HELP!

I used Soft Key to change the shortcut @ the bottom of my screen i only wanted to change Calendar to New SMS, But when i started the Program it made me change both soft keys & Contacts is not in the list. Now i have New SMS & anything but Contacts.
Any body else had this problem? or does anyone have a fix for this????
Funny enough even if i navigate :
Start
Settings
Menus
Contacts is not in that list either.......Weird......
I have attached screen shots to help.
Thanks....
Learn to use the registry. The keys you are looking for are in:
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys
Key 112 is your left soft key, and key 113 is your right soft key. You just rename the, "Default" value to what you want to appear on the screen, and the, "Open" value to what you want to launch (the Contacts.lnk is in the /Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder I believe).
Oh, and get Schaps Registry Editor before any of that. ; )
dzelaya18
Thanks for the info you have given but im afraid it don't help cause the contacts.ink or even contacts.exe is nowhere to be found on my device not even in the windows folder....
I have attached a screen shot for you to see.
Thanks again.
And by the way i use PHM Registry Editor.....
Do you already have "Contacts" in your start menu? On my phone, I have Contacts in my start menu, and it is no longer in /Windows/Start Menu/Programs but it is listed in Windows/Start Menu. I think it moves the .lnk over when it's active in the start menu. Just a thought.
I mean, it has to be on the phone somewhere. Although I can't seem to locate it in Windows either...kind of makes me wonder where the phone is pulling it from when I select it...hmm...
No it's not in my start menu, proof is in 1 of the attachments in my1st post.
Last nite i installed PocketCM and used soft key to choose the shortcut to it.
Now i have what i originally wanted
Left Shortcut:......New SMS
Right Shortcut:....Contacts (through PocketCM)
Sorted.........
Screen Shot Attached
Yeah, I use iContact v0.6. I'd love to use PocketCM if it didn't try and do so much more than just contacts. It's refusal to stop trying to handle SMS is what makes me stay away from it.
Not to sure what you mean about PocketCM taking over SMS just switch it off in options if you dont like it.....
I use PocketCM V0.23 together with TouchPal 3.0 and the SMS option works well for me if anything better than the original cause it shows the whole conversation and it makes it easier for you to remember what you texting about he he he....
Try it.....
I've got a similar problem:
My right softkey was Calendar, some time ago it said "shortcut not found".
I set it again using Schap's Advanced Config, but it kept disappearing 2 or 3 times.
Now, the links for Calendar and Contacts have disappeared in the Start Menu!
I was able to copy the calendar.lnk from the \Windows directory, but there is no contacts.exe.
I do not use PocketCM, so that's not the root cause...
Try installing PocketCM and use that for a while to see it that shortcut dissapears aswell.....
Sounds like we have all got gremlins in our Hermes!!!!!!!! he he he

Hope im allowed to post that......

Bottom Button Customisation

Just wondering how can i customise the bottom 2 buttons.
Currently it has Phone and Camera there.
I would like it to be either:
Camera and Comm.
or
Contacts and Comm.
Also currently im using TF3D2, on TF3D i could display Japanese text in Manila Music Player, however in TF3D2 it just shows all Squares. How can i fix this?
In the program called "Diamond Tweak" you can change those two, I do not mean "Diamond TF3D Config" just so you know.
Another app that'll do the trick is called Softkey Manager. You can find the info here.
got the diamond tweek thing, and did what i want it to do....
now need to find out how to make Manila show Japanese or other language text~!
You can change the language of TF3D in Diamond TF3D Config. Also try Settings > system > national settings and see if there's something about TF3D there.
ive tried switching my TF3D2 to Japanese using a language pack, but it just shows up as all Squares.

turning off keyboard vibrate?

Hi all ...just got the HD2 yesterday ...so far fairly impressed with it ..battery usage is a little scary down to 58 after 15 hours and most of those hours where at night ...but still got to be kind of realistic with the size of screen and cpu it has anyway could anyone help/tell me a way to turn off the vibrate function will typing on the keyboard... I’m finding typing is not a problem at with the standard setup just the annoying vibrate feedback ...ive gone through all the menus on the phone looking for the option to turn it off but nothing found also quickly checked the forum to, and didn’t see anything???..
thanks
Go to the settings tab, select the topmost option for adjusting background, tabs, etc. On the next screen you'll find an option for turning vibration feedback on/off.
Actual names might be different as I'm using a Dutch language ROM.
thank you ...was looking in the wrong place ..(the keyboard setup menu)
HD2 (Leo) Disabling keyboard vibration
Thank you..You are absolutely correct.. missed this one and was looking in all other places.
Its located under Sense UI settings > Personalize > Vibration
Thanks again..

doing this doesn´t disable the vibration on my keyboard what can i do?
Settings -> Personalize -> Vibration. Untick the box for 'Vibrate when I tap buttons in HTC Sense,....'
doing the above will also lose the feedback vibration while clicking the tabs in homescreen...... the other simple way to only disable vibration in keyboard alone is do the following registry tweak
Using Resco Registry, go to Hkey Local Machine / Software / HTC / ezsip
Add a new DWORD Value string and call it "VibrationEnabled" (without the quotes) and give it a value of 0.
then Soft reset and enjoy!
or install this cab.
