Apologies if this has been covered before, found these settings on another website (http://smartmobileassets.com/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b=winmobile,m=1132411511)
Have they been tried and do they make any difference?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=0x1000(4096)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=0x1(1)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=0x1000(4096)
Yes they work!
Yes they work beautiful on my Jasjar, the device is noticeable faster in all the applications.
Thank you!

hi. please could you tell me is i need to insert the full value "0x1000(4096)" or only one of them? thank you,
Just one, one is the Hex Value the other is the decimal

so for ex in hex 0x1000
sorry but registry is like crystal...
Just one, one is the Hex Value the other is the decimal
Yes, "0x1000" in Hex is identical to "4096" in decimal. Put whichever one you want into the relevant registry entry.
I've messed about with these registry settings too, but in all honesty I haven't noticed any difference in performance....

But as darkdestroyer says in the other sites forum...
Yes i've done this since it was first released on Aximsite by another member. At first I had 8 mb allocated, but i guess 4 is the best number. The PDA right after a soft reboot is still the same speed, but after you have all of the shortcut's/programs run once, they will be put into ram and the following run's of those same programs/shortcuts will be much much faster. This is indeed a great find and should be standard with WM5

No changes in the performance of the device.
The only change is battery draining faster than the original settings.
I've done these changes before and had to reflash the ROM again to my device.
I don't see any need to make these changes, and I don't advise any one to do them.
Regards,
These registry settings have been reported to increase performance by many users on different forums, some using the Dell Axim x51v ,BA users and even some Universal users and are even incorporated into tweaks2k2. My advice is to try them for yourself and make sure the changes are actually being applied after a soft reset and then perform some tasks on your device (see the post by Carnivor) and then make your own judgement. No one so far has reported any negative impact apart from a small reduction in program memory. The changes can always be reversed if needed.

Erm... so is this registry tweak adding cache memory to the system for running applications then? So that .exes or .dlls that are loaded when a program is run are available more quickly to the system next time they're needed?
If so (and I can't quite believe that this could be the case ), are we now recommending that we allow programs to stay resident in memory to speed up the machine?
... much like the standard PocketPC "Minimise, not close" behaviour that people seem to hate so much?
LMFAO if so! (and please tell me I'm wrong if not! )
SiliconS,
You are absolutely wright.
The proof is that after making the registery editing the application when opened for the first time it does not open on a faster way than the original settings, but when you open it for the second time it opens faster that the first time.
The appications remain opened in the phone memory and reduces the devices memory and the battery life as well.
Microsoft's WM5 development team must be LTFAO when they read stuff like this. People spend hours complaining and looking for ways of forcing the system to properly close apps using MagicButton or PocketPlus, and complain when their WM5 machine runs slow.
Then someone comes along offering a way of speeding things up by caching programs and files in memory!!
Am I the only person who thinks this is utterly bizarre?
Oh, man. MS must be laughing at us. :shock:
(No offence intended to anybody - I'm just amused by this. )
So, if you are running something like GSPocketMagic, Magic Button, etc, which actually close applications properly, all you are doing is reducing the amount of memory available to run programs with no gain whatsoever?
Well I made the changes and found no improvement in speed, but it was worth a try. In the light of what has been said, I'd like to change back the settings, but can't remember what they were!!!!!
Can someone post up the original values please
Here they are:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=0
Many thanks - all sorted
Guys, these registry hacks work! If you haven't been able to get them to work you may have missed a step or two.
First of all, Windows Mobile 5 already holds running information in the RAM, so these tweaks do not truly change that but they do enhance it to make the WM5 device runs MUCH better.
I've have had a TON of people comment and e-mail me about these changes both on my site and many others about how well these tweaks work. In fact, I don't think that the developer of Tweaks2k2 would include that in his latest version if it didn't work.
Couple things; you have to either cycle the power on your WM5 device or do a soft reset from a software app only! Cycling the power will write anything in RAM to ROM, in this case the registry settings you have just changed. If cycling does not work you should soft reset your device using a software app. I think there are a couple free apps to do that but you can also use SPB's Pocket Plus or others. If you just hit the reset button on the back after making the changes it soft resets right away without writing RAM content to ROM.
You can check this by looking at your registry settings after a soft reset to see if the changes took.
I have still noticed that sometime after a reset my device will still run slowly but it isn't because of these changes. In fact, most of the time it is perfectly fine and MUCH better than it was before the changes. MUCH!
Be sure to also turn off error reporting and do the activesync hack to keep those from draining battery and you should do well.
Again, many have made these changes and seen a very significant improvement in performance.
Hi !
All the times i´m sure, that the same Turbo-Modus from WM 2003SE exist deep in the WM5 too.
People call me, Jay, you are crazy!
Since one Week ago i find the Turbo-Modus !
We tested it on the German-Forum http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=81949
It´s the same Speed-Up Feeling like on the XDAIIi or other Devices with the Turbo-Modus On.
No 50% or 1000%- Booster, but you can feel a better "Easy-Going".
It works on some other WM5-Devices too !
First, you only take a "new" Key to the Registry, copy the Power-Programm from WM2003 SE, start the Power-Programm,
go on new Processor-page and:
The Turbo-Modus exist and can be activated !
Here is the key:
HKEY_Local_Machine\ SOFTWARE\HTC\Power
Put a D-String with Name "ProcessorPageFlag" 1 Dec.
I made a reg.-File who write the key, and i put it with all needed files in one .zip-File.
Password: Agent Jay
First try the reg.-File, than copie the Files, if you want, you can overwrite the files in the Windows-Directory, but backup the originals !
Put the power.lnk File in the autostart/startup Directory, and now, after every Softreset, you can activ the Turbo-Mode.
It works perfectly, you can only feel the Speed-Up on really full Memory Pro´s, not really on empty Pro´s. Don´t know why.
Problems: After a Softreset it goes on "Standard-Mode", it must be activated again manual by Hand.
But these five Seconds for restaring Turbo-Modus during a startup are OK for me.
Anyone can it handle or find a way, to save the turbo-modus forever ?
I hope you like it !
Greetings from Germany,
Agent Jay
???
Is it workin or just eating up my alredy bad battery? :/
RE
I just installed yesterday on my QTEK9000 and I 'think' its smoother in operation.
Not very sure about it
As I''m running XCPUScalar and some other speed up registry tweaks if there's any speed increase its definitely not noticeable
Thanks
It´s not possible to detect the faster speed, because it don´t push up the megaherz-rate !
But you can feel the faster performance.
No more power using from your battery !
So it speeds it up without speeding up the processor or using any more battery power? Hmmm. Surely if that were possible then the "Turbo" mode would be the default mode and no other mode (like "slowmo" mode) would exist?! :wink:
Could it be that the Turbo page is something that is built in to WM5 but which was disabled on the Universal since it does not support it?
Seems to work on my Magician
Can anyone pinpoint the actual benefit of this tool?
Exactly what difference is experienced??
The benefits are a faster and a feeling of "liquid" working.
Thats it.
Menus open faster, Windows open faster, the handling is therefore better.
No longer hickups, ...
It´s like Aspirin for a guy with headache.
After the Aspirin he don´t run faster, but he have no longer headache :wink: and make a better work.
I think, every little speed up of our device- help us !
Try it or leave it.
Regards,
Jay
It really wont make a difference on the HTC Universal because it already has a 520 MHz processor. With the PDA2, the processor was underclocked to 416 Mhz and the power-up option was useful there.
UD.
Thats not correct. It works on the Universal too !
First users here and some more users on german forum had tested and feel
more Speed. You can´t test it with benchmark-apps, because you don´t speed up the processor. Don´t know exactly, what it is, but it works.
Test it yourself and than reply !
Greetings,
Jay
Alright Jay, will keep you updated
Cheers.
Uhm... it *seems* to do something to the general responsiveness of the Universal, the hourglass appears for less time now.
I'll keep testing it... thanks for the clue.
Are you sure with this password. It is not working to unzip it !!!!!!!!!

well its just registry tweaking...
Hmm.. I looked but didn't see the key so I created it. It doesn't make any difference though. I'm running WM5.
Any ideas?

You have to use one of the free Registry Editor. You can find some if you use the forum's search function.
There is no build in registry editor in WM6.
WM6 Registry
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight]
KeyLightTimeout
Stock Double Word is 30 =5 Seconds
Change Double Word to 90 = 15 Seconds
I recently fixed one 4350(replaced LCD)..
however there is no keyboard backlight..
can somebody explain how this backlight works?
are each button lighted?
moved to a own thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1883948#post1883948
Old thread but some1 might get hits on it.
My PDA phone (HTC p3300) with wm6 has a different key name for the same values due to (i suppose) the option to have different backlight for AC power and battery power. So you do want to change the timeout, only u get to do it twice
HK_CURRENT_USER\BackLight\BatteryTimeout
and
HK_CURRENT_USER\BackLight\ACTimeout
-value is in actual seconds-
____________________________________________________________
I myst be tired. Didnt read the thread properly,This belongs in another thread i belive since my tweak is about display backlight. There isnt so many hits on the subject so ill just leave it as it is for some1 to find. Cheers
Thanx for a great forum. cheers

first find out the problem area '' hard ware or software '' by putting wm5 or wm3 then report back to me the status of ur trouble.
Damn that was fast..
ok with 2003 on i dont have the slow speed problem however there are not the same ammount of applications avalible to add to the BA thats why i liked WM6 PLUS it has A2DP...
Does that help mate ??

Use a registry editor and add the following to your BA registry:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/Devices
Add a new DWord: DefaultMTU with the Hex value of 2a0
Capitalization counts in these settings.
Hi Kasush,
Ok... Doing what you told me HOWEVER i cant put 2a0 it WONT de capitalise it will only go in as 2A0will this make a massie difference???

Sorry, I should have been more clear, the capitalization I was reffering to was in the DWord "DefaultMTU" 2a0 or 2A0 (Zero not Oh) is a hex number and will be fine upper or lower case.
like all the others, I recommend switching to explodes or PDAveit rom, they are quitre faster
Heres a question though. I put the same wm6 on both my own t mobile MDA and my best mates orange spv m2000 with all the same process's same version and same other bits at the end of the wizard. His runs dog slow and mine does not? Are these issues down to differing hardware?
you know bri you could be right i have had the XDA The M2000 AND the MDA3and i have to say out of them all the MDA has been the best in looks and performance in saying that the PV Rom is quality and all is good i wish i could tweek it a lill bit more and make things a lill bit smoother but its getting there

I saw this too,but it happens only when I slide open the phone in some apps.
I have same problem in my x2,and can't find any way to solve it ,I search vsync in registry,change 0 to 1,but it also ''screen tearing''
ps,x1 seem not has this problem...
What can we do to solve this?
Sorry to my bad english.
Warning: I have placed only the non-HTC tweaks here and HAVE NOT TESTED THEM YET. Any changes you apply or programs you use will be at your own risk!
I would have tested this already if I could but I will only be able to after a few days when I get my new X2 (again). I just wanted to give possible solutions besides turning on Vsync.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Activating VSync only will not solve your problem because screen tearing is usually caused by a combination of bad video and file access configuration.
To answer your request here is what I found for the VSync registry location (please confirm this):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\LCDC]
"Vsync"=dword:1
And here is a list of possible tweaks for the X2:
Original post by g.lewarne is: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629388.
Change:
HKLM/System/GDI/GLYPHCACHE To: 524288 (change both keys in there)
This allows for much smoother font rendering, especially when scrolling
Change:
HKLM/System/StorageManager/Filters/fsreplxfilt/ReplStoreCacheSize To: 131072
This creates a filesystem 128k sector cache filter, improves data throughput from ROM to RAM (probably) and does seem to improve indexing response and file browsing.
EDIT: file explorer just loaded my “Windows” directory in half a second with this enabled , and the screen does not tear when scrolling the list either any more
Change:
HKLM/Drivers/Display/VMMaxHeapSize To: 33554432
This changes the VideoMemory max heap from 16k to 32k
Change:
HKLM/Drivers/Display/Settings/SMI2 AllocSizeMB To: 32
Change:
HKLM/System/GDI/Drivers/Bpp To: 24
Now this IS interesting. I dont know if its just me, but were HTC holding out on us display wise? Changing the BitsPerPixel (colourdepth) from 16 to 24bit, for some reason, whether the display is actually capable of true colour or not, not only MAKES THE SCREEN LOOK BETTER but its also FASTER

Can somebody test the above a provide a feedback thru all the points Xareth suggested us?
I'm not able to do this my X2 is not available for a a month or so.
Who is coming up with these crappy settings? Most of them are NONEXISTENT in my X2!!! And many of the rest are already much higher!
This is not a HTC phone and has no such hardware and NOT most of those HTC specific windows registry settings a HTC phone has.
Please post only registry settings and changes of such, which are existing in the X2.
Thank you!
I agree.
I think all that Xareth says, comes from the HD2... But I tried to add the non-existent keys => nothing !
And i have already tried GfxBoost, NeoS2007 and SpeedBooster, this hasn't solved the problem.
I think that without hardspl, nobody knows anything do
What happens when you try to help and warn in CAPITALS that you have not tested it.
Thank you all for your replies to my post above.
First of all, really sorry to have disappeared but I have entered a new job and have been busy as heck to reach a stable setup.
Even though the testing of the reg keys failed, I am happy that it at least has gotten us closer to finding a solution since we found out they did not work
What next? Well, what else! Gotta try to find other ways. This time I can test since I have my X2 and am using it regularly.
@lo: don't give up, don't assume it's the end! I am now checking if it has to do with the SD card access (delayed reading).
@michaelthemage: I know you are frustrated and want a working answer at once, but:
1. this is a community forum not a support centre so don't assume I or anyone else is making up any crappy settings. We're just trying to find the right answers.
2. and yes, I can make mistakes just like you or anyone else. For example you did not read my first line saying I did not test the settings since I did not have a device to test with! Demanding much?
3. I don't think we can limit things to X2 only registry settings because first of all, it's not out there in the open to know which settings are only for X2! I removed the obvious HTC reg keys and went on from there. I think that is the next best thing to finding an answer, instead of hitting a dead end. I ask you to also try to find an answer or at least post something more constructive.
4. Sony previously worked with HTC (HTC was making the components for previous Sony devices) and therefore it is logical there may be some HTC keys which are applicable. I will tell you right now many fixes that work for HTC work for the X2! Have you ever wondered why? Of course I may be wrong too but I'm trying to find out if I am!
5. Let's go on to hardware. Many smartphone manufacturers are only integrators. Even HTC buys its parts from another company in China. So don't tell me it does not have similar hardware to HTC until you have opened both companys' phones and confirmed (which I have btw, the opening not the confirming). It's like saying LG Laptops do not have LCD screens like Samsung Laptops when Samsung manufactures the LCDs for LG.
Get a life!
Dude, I don't have the time nor inclination to answer this crap in several paragraphs. Still these reg settings are crap and somebody posting this crap is responsible if any noob applies them and screws up their phones. That is the crap! That's it!
