Need help with registry to edit Manila 2.5 Home Quick Links - Touch HD General

I am using Duttys WM6.5 Leo R5 ROM on htcpedia.
I don't like the fact that the Quick Links in the home screen, when set to show you a contact's card, take you to the "edit contact" screen. I want it to take me to the screen that asks you if you want to "call home" or "call mobile" or "send message" or "send email". In other words, I want it to take me to the same main screen that appears if you tap on a contact in your "all people" list.
Does anyone know the registry info for that?
I found that the Quick Links are listed in HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/Home
The list goes from 0 to 8 for each Quick Link
If I select a contact set to take me to the contact card, I see that the "ContactFavorType" is set to 0.
If I select a contact set to call that person, then the "ContactFavorType" is set to 42 (hexadecimal), and the person's phone number is entered in the "ExePath" section.
I assume that if I can somehow find the correct hexadecimal value for the main contact screen window, I can enter it in that "ContactFavorType" section.
I hope someone can help me with this. I don't know if it's a bug, or if HTC meant it that way. But to me it makes no sense for it to take you to the edit contact screen instead of the actual contact card, where you can choose what you want to do.

This issue was resolved in Dutty's Leo R7 WM6.5 Manila2.5 ROM.
I am also currently using Dutty's Leo Holy Grail R0 Manila 2.5 and this issue is also resolved in that ROM.
So, I'm not sure why you are having that problem.
I suggest flashing a stock ROM, then hard reseting, and then flashing Holy Grail R0, and once again hard reseting.
And don't restore any backups (like Spb backup or SpriteBackup) because you might bring the problem back.

aaaha - strange. And you also do not have the issue that contact pictures are not shown at the quick link?
I hard resetted before and after flashing (twice) as I had the issue with R7 and R6 that the device stuck and sometime hard-resetted itself...
Till now R0 seems fine except the thing with quick-link-contacts and all my birthdays shifted 1 day after syncing with exchange...
If I am the only one experiencing these bugs with R0 I guess I really have to try flashing a stock rom before (though I have no idea why this should prevent anything)...

I have not had any quick link problems at all with Holy Grail R0. They can take me to view the contact card without problems, and the contact's photo is always there to see. I am using the 9-quick link view (not the 16 quick links from the cab that is out there - although I have used them in the past on R7 with no problems). I don't know if other R0 user are having problems with quick links.
You are describing several issues that have been experienced by a lot of users. So, no - you are not the only one. It is also a known fact, that flashing a stock rom before flashing a custom rom helps. That means: flash stock, then hard reset, then flash custom rom, then hard reset. Apparently, there is a program MTTY that is not executed when you flash a custom rom. It is only executed when flashing a stock rom. I don't understand it really, but it appears to that if you don't flash a stock rom first, then some items can remain in memory and can cause problems in the custom rom you are about to flash.
Although flashing a stock rom will not solve all of your problems, it might solve some.
The hol
For more info on MTTY you can see this thread.
To get help with Holy Grail R0 and see what others are experiencing, post your questions in this thread. I also remember the 1-day birthday shift (or something similar) being discussed there. So, search that thread.
Good luck with getting some of your issues resolved.
If I were you, I would definitely do the stock rom flash etc and then see what problems you are still left with once you flash holy grail R0.
EDIT:
btw - the issue with the phone sometimes freezing after being in stand-by is apparently a Manila 2.5 issue (at least in custom roms). According the another user (makbil), he has experienced it in all M2.5 roms except for one. See his post here.

Polaris hangs and restart

Does anybody knows this problem?
Since the last few days my polaris restart among a call or if I recieve a SMS the screen goes on and stay on and nothing works no buttons and no touch works.
have you installed any new cabs over the top of bepe's rom that may affect phone? have you tried backing up your contacts etc then do a hard reset on the polaris?

I have made a hardreset and install anything new. The only new is a new version of battery status but this works.
For a few days I installed a WWE Version from PDAView and than BePe´s again. And now I have this strange Problem.
I suggest that bug reports or reports of weird behaviors of specific ROMs are kept in the thread where the ROM got released. In this case it would be bepes thread.
After flashing bepes ROM, did you restore a backup archive of some sort? SPB Backup or anything comparable?
What else is installed except Battery Status which isnt included in bepes ROM? This includes all CABs which are "bugfixes" as well.

No I didnt restore a backup. I install the same cabs as before but I think the problem is solved. The problem seems to be batterystatus.
I reinstall bs and my theme for bs and now the error seems to be gone.
I will test it a few days.
Problem is back :-(
I don´t now what I can do.
Since I try an other WWE OS and now went back to BePes German ROM my Polaris hangs or restart. I cant define in which case this happens :-(
Any chance to get this problem solved?
I dont think that is was an error from Bepes Rom cause I used it before I try an other Rom without theese Problems.
Are there any know programs that have a bug like this?
I use a couple of programs so I have not the time to test any of them.

When my polaris hangs it is always the same situation.
S2U2 works fine, I slide to unlock then pocketcm comes up but i can´t minimize pcm only close. If I close pcm a black and blank desktop appears. The LED is blinking normally but when I call myself (from an other phone) i get an free line signal but my phone dont rings or show me a call.
I suppose you will have to try and diagnose the issue with adding one program at a time, then using it for a day or two, then add another and test it like this. random reboots on any hardware are very hard to diagnose. is anyone else experiencing reboots with bepe's rom at all?

I dont think that the problem is BePe´s Rom cause it was running 2 month before without problems. The problems began at the time I changed to an other rom.
I have more than 20 Programs installed thats too much time for me to test.
Thats the reason I ask if someone has heard of an program that causes this issue.
My english is soo bad
I use the last weeks a new SDCard. Can this produce the errors?
MicroSD TransFlash Formel1 4GB.
Since yesterday I use my "old" SDCard and at this time I had no problems. Can this be the reason?
I will watch this the next days.
That was not the reason :-(
The problem is not solved.
Can it be the reason that I flashed a wwe rom and went back to a german rom?
does the phone reboot without any self installed applications? i.e. flash with an original rom and test it without adding ANY other applications.
If it still reboots there is a problem with the phone.
If you add all you apps and it reboots then there is a problem of incompatabilty with one of the apps. you will then need to carefully install one at a time and test each install for a while. this is the only way to diagnose a software fault.
if you do not do this then you will not know why it is rebooting. simple really.

My HTC TOUCH HD T8282 TF3D not working

Dear All,
I am New here and I just purchased a HD in Dubai. When I started the unit after TF3D launches few seconds later it will again initiate the TF3d saying " Tap here to launch Touch Flo" It will go off and on like this also when I try to run some application using Touch flo it is same. Hence now i am not using the TF3D
If someone can help out me with this problem. I even update the 1.56 Official ROM still the same.
Looking forward for your suggestions
Thanks in Advance
Hari
try hard reset after flashing the new updated rom version.
Thanks for your answer.I already did several Hard reset. Even if i view picture album the screen goes off and come back in the program menu. If i use touch flo then it freezes or trying to relaunch the Touch Flo
This occurred right out of the box, correct? You've probably already tried this, but if not, try going to "today" in settings and untick TF3D, exit, and go back and re-tick and exit. Do you have an SD card in? If so, try pulling your SD and sim card out and try another hard reset.

Hi Sean,
Thanks for the answer. I tried it already however I did not remove the sim and sd I will do as u told and check for today and reply u later. Thanks for the suggestions.
hi sean
i tried now the prob is " a problem has occured with audiomanager _eng.exe". And another " a problem has occured with filesys.exe". Also another one Shell32.exe error
This is most of them when Touch flo is on. Is there any update for Touchflo so that may that will correct this problem
Regards, Hari
If the device functions normally with the stock windows rom, but not in TF3D then there is a conflict somewhere with the TF3D rom. A multitude of things could be going on between windows and the TF3D overlay. I think you're getting those errors because TF3D has not loaded or can't load to perform the task and thus the errors. I have to say I'm at a loss on what is causing this for you. It maybe that flashing a cooked rom is an answer. Those are updated and vastly improved builds of TF3D, among other things. Could be the overhaul you need. If you do, especially in your case, use USPL 2.5 to flash not HSPL. USPL will preserve your original SPL thereby not voiding your warranty. Also, make sure the cooked rom is based on 1.56 and pull your SD card before flashing. I'm using Dutty's 3.0 XT Ship, which is based on the 1.56 upgrade, and it's amazing how fast and stable my phone and TF3D is now. I wish I could think of or knew of an easier solution, although flashing isn't that tough. And if flashing a cooked rom doesn't work, you can always flash back to your original rom. The wiki has just about every original stock rom available.

WM6.5 - Manila 2.5 keeps rebooting

Hi there,
Actually i met this problem for several times since i tried wm6.5 roms with Manila 2.5.
I flashed dutty's WM6.5 Leo R6 last week, and it seems to be stable and speedy until yesterday...
Manila 2.5 started to reboot again and again. i can see from task monitor that the CPU usage for Manila.exe is increasing, arrive at over 80%, and then the session disappeared (killed by system? or suicide?), and then recreated, again and again.
Sometimes there would be a sentence on the top 'Tap here to launch HTC Sense'.
I know a hardrest or reflash would definitely solve the problem, but it will be there again after several days' use - according to my previous experience with Manila 2.5. Does anyone meet the same symptom? I cannot even spot the possible root cause/ or trigger for it..
Thx.
here's a short video i took this morning,,, could be easier to help describe the symptom.

That seemed to do it for me as well. However, I did all these three to resolve my problems:
Flashed to stock ROM -> Leo R6
Stopped using CorePlayer (initiated all problems)
Stopped using contacts among favourites
Don't know which one(s) actually solved my problems.
It happened to me when I tried to add new locations to the weather tab with the Weather database editor and I corrupted the database.
Simply delete the database to get the ROM on and it gets solved.

Issue with start menu

I have a very strange symptom on my device. When I go to the start menu and try to scroll in the window it didn't refresh the screen, the icons are overlapping each other. This happening if I am go to a subcategory in the start menu as well. See attached screen shots. Right now it seems every other apps are working fine.
Issue caused by WMedia Support by Helmi's. I uninstalled but it did not helped at all
Any idea, how can I resolve this issue?
What I have done till now:
I have checked the install cab file - it seems all dlls were removed from the device (2 or 3 remained but the date of the files are the same when I coocked the ROM)
I have checked all files were created/modified on the day when install the codec, but I did not found anything.
I have tried install some start menu converter such like start menu grid, but they did not helped at all to solving this issue
ROM: Dutty WM6.5 LEO R4 WWE
Any help/idea would be appreciate.
I think you will need to Hard Reset your device as you mentioned that some critical system files may be missing. I don't think anything else can be done.
Change the tsk theme to classic blue then soft reset, then change it back.

Ahh... never thought of that, good call
Hope that fix works.

Thanks for the hint, but unfortunately it did not help, any other idea apart from hard reset?
If no one else has reported the same bug in the chef's thread then flash a stock rom, then flash the Dutty rom again. Then hard reset twice. Then find an update to that program you installed that caused it in the first place.
I don't think it is related to the rom is much more the app I installed. If there won't be any other idea i will do a hard reset and check (might be update rom as well)
I also try to check registry changes what I found in the cab, but nothing special, at least for me

Help! Manila photo tab doesn't work

Please Help, I'm using HTC_Asia_TW_1.66 stock rom on my HD2, after installing some apps and mods, it won't boot after a soft reset. I restored the system by SPB backup to earlier status and then all comes back, the phone works again except the photo tab remains blank (black).
Maybe that's because I didn't make a "full backup" but only "system" level by SPB, may this lead to miss something on restore?
Here is what I have now : In the right side there is still counter showing "1/99" (means there are 99 photos?) but nothing shows up. The camera icons on the top-right side are still there too, and they works. HTCAlbum works too. On the bottom the two menu text remain "phone" and "menu", which belong to the home tab.
All other tabs work just fine.
I tried to delete the album cache files but no luck.
As mentioned I got system backups from last stats, I'm thinking extract something from it to replace current files (exe, dlls ?) but I've no idea about what to do~
Any helps are very appreciated...
Sorry for my English...

Same problem
I have exactly the same problem. I just noticed it today. I'm using the WWE 1.66 ROM and everything's been fine.
I have no idea what caused it, and would love some help.
Thanks,
David
The symptoms look very suspiciously caused by the installation of the landscape rotation tweak, TX Total Landscape.cab
I had installed this particular cab before but had since removed.
Same problem
I have the same problem with my hd2... but I did not installed the TX Total Landscape.cab.
I think the problem started when I tried the GTX white theme.cab... but even after its removal, the photo tab still doesn't work.
Is this a bug caused by Cookie's Home Tab 1.8.5???
I really don't know how to solve this...

Thanks Zentury, I think this may be the most possible reason. I didn't use the Tx one for landscape fonction but I do have installed another enablelandscape.cab. This one may cause the same problem. but I can't confirm this cause I've switched my stock rom to energy rom yesterday. thanks anyway!
I tried several ROMs - 2 of miri's, and 2 energy ROMs and all 4 of them lead to freezing of my ""pictures and video sense tab, even after a fresh flashing. I flash my device after I format my SD card, remove it along with the SIM, perform task 29 => ROM flashing and then hard resetting. I tried different compatible radio versions, 2 of the roms were with CHT...still the same bug - pics and video tab freezes few seconds after finding the pictures on my SD card. I think what is common in all these 4 ROMS is the presence of a screen rotating app - in the last ROM (Energy Reference) it is called just "Rotate screen". Anyone know how to disable it?
drkalo,
It's weird cause I'm using Energy's rom (JUN22 Cookie version) and the photo tab problem on the last stock rom is totally gone!
I don't think it's easy to disable the rotation from these cooked roms, maybe you can ask within the specific rom threads.
But I think if I have no problem with energy then you wouldn't... I'd suggest formating your SD card but you've done it. I suppose you copied files back to the card after formatting. Now it sounds like a file error. Did you try deleting any non-image files on your photo folder (DCIM) ? especially album.cache. Move out the videos too, they could be problematics. When using HD2's camcorder I've tried saving videos in other formats and that freezed my phone.
Dear noixdarec,
As you suggest I copied back all of my SD card content after formatting. I deleted the cache files but din't delete the whole DICM folder. Now I did that and then I made several new photos and videos and - VOILA! The tab works without freezing! Never thought of that and I thank you VERY, VERY MUCH! Mersi beaucoup!
Dear drkalo, je t'en pris (you're welcome) ! So glad that you solved your problem, have a good day~
