Hi, I have installed the latest Imate ROM and have a few questions.
------- 1 SOLVED-------
1) How do you get the disconnect button for when you press the G and are connected to GPRS? As i only have a hide button.
------- 2 NEED HELP ------------
2) How do you set the hardware keyboard to the correct layout, as when i press ! on the keyboard i get ~. The normal alphabet characters seem to be fine, just a few symbols seemed to be messed up.
I am pretty sure they will be registry edits, but not sure which one!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
* go to \\registry\HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\
* if the value 'Flags2' doesn't exist, create it as a DWORD value.
* Set the value (decimal) to
o 8 to add a Disconnect button.
o 16 to add a Disconnect button and a timer display showing how long GRPS is in use for the current session.
o 0 to hide both the Disconnect button and the timer
* Soft Reset.
Works a treat (Thanks to The HTC Wizard Web for that one)...
Thanks, works a treat! I have got the disconnect button and the timer on! sound advice my friend! thanks again.
now, does any one know how to sort my keyboard layout out please?
thanks
Please Help
Please help me with the keyboard question guys~ thanks.
~ should have been !, I'm typing on my wizard.

I have the new imate wwe rom.
please help~
have you checked your regional settings under "start/settings/system tab/ regional settings.
It may be that you have it set to the wrong locale.
I did try to post earlier but I kept getting php errors, so sorry for the delay.
I think you have flashed your unit with a incorrect ROM for your locale. Its always better if you can flash the original ROM provided by your vendor. If you really need to flash to different language (e.g. UK English to US English), then you have to use a utility called aekmap, with appropriate key map loaded.

Hope this help- I tried it works on my german layout version change to WWE ROM.
Thanks William Yeung,
I think you are right as i had the English O2 ROM and flashed to the WWE imate ROM.
If I use the key board mapper and flashed back to O2 will i have to remap the keys?
I have Softbank X01HT, installed Dopod Chinese HK firmware, SIM unlocked, bootloader SPL-1.04, when I try to reset total calling time using mtty, I got an error, after, I check with command "info 2" & "task 32" result "Level = FF",

Hi,
yesterday I decied to flash my XDA mini S(G3 device ) with the "SNN Edition Version 3.1 Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM", well there was no problem and the system works fine, but not the keyboard.
I'm a German person and I don't know whether there are differences between German and US/Brit XDAs. I go to my settings and changed the "Keyboard Layout" option to "German( Germany )", but there wasn't any effect. If I try to insert a symbol, which is displayed on the key a different symbol will be placed, e.g.:
! = ~
" = !
$ = @
$ = #
~ = ?
...
Can someone tell me how to fix it? Or it is the rom version?

change registry
To resolve that problem. You use a registry editor as Resco.
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > ControlPanel > Keybd
Then create a string value
Name : Locale
String : 0809
Save and soft reset device
Cool!
Hm no, it does not fix the problem completly. Ok ! = ! and some other symbols are fine now, not all, maybe there are some more layouts I can try out?
Ok, I think this link will solve your problem

Can I change the pagepool (I want to set it to 8MB) without reflashing the ROM?
I searched in the forum but all the tools I found (PP chager, ...) don't work with Touch HD.
The only way I found is patching the ROM with a multiplatform tool found in Blackstone Kitchen.
Thank you.
No, you have to reflash the rom, the multiplatform page pool changer works just fine, but consider that you have also to patch your payload file in order to make the page pool change working correctly.
Ok, thanks.
And is there a method to read the pagepool size of my installed ROM?
Right now total amount of program memory is 195.58MB, from this value can I obtain pagepool size?
Try this if this work ?

This PagePool changer works just fine (and can also read the current pagepool of your rom).
But remember that you have to patch your xip in order to make pagepool changes working.
What is XIP ?
I tried it, but not work on my Dutty rom 1.7

It is for diamond but I tried on my HD rom and it works fine.
In short you should:-
1. Extract your rom (*.nbh).
2. In a hex editor search for the key 03 25 A0 E3 03 15 A0 E3 00 20 83 E5 (there should be 2 such strings)
3. Replace 20 83 E5 with 00 A0 E1 (for both strings, this disables this key and lets pagepool changer work)
4. Patch the rom with the pagepool changer suggested by johnpatcher.
5. Flash your rom back to you HD using CustomRUU (and USPL if necessary).
6. Enjoy!
For information, the default pagepool size for official rom should be 12mb, leaving approx. 194~195mb for program memory. I patched my rom to 16mb pagepool and my current program memory is 190.70mb.
Thank you. I noticed this thread and i was asking if it could work on the HD. This is a good news. Did you try it on various roms?

I did it only on the official CHT 1.19.832.0 ROM but I thought it would be same for other version of official ROMs.
I have no idea why is it not working on the 1.14.412.5 ROM ....it seems like we need some Pros to help solving this problem...
And, I don't think we can change the pagepool without reflashing so far (as it is something written into the rom).
With reflashing, it is very too simply to use PagePool_Changer_v2.21 ...
Nobody knows how to change the PP in ROM 1.14.412.5?

Sorry for my English
UPDATE v. 1.3.0.1 BETA (24th December 2010)
Sorry for the long time, but here is my current work which still needs some support.
What was done?
1. Fixed aprox. 90 Timezone entries within windows.
2. Problem is that the rilphone.dll ignores (!) NITZ. There might be an option within the registry but it seems that this option will be ignored. Damn...
3. Workaround is done and within the CAB file
LIMITATIONS:
I guess there are now all global valid timezones within this cab file and I hope there is no need to say that not every time zone is tested by my self.
The cell tower time sync works only after a cold reboot OR once a time if you activate the airplane mode or disable the SIM card. After enable the device for normal phone status you need to cold reboot the device because the registry value for the time sync will be set during the reboot and DEACTIVATED by the device after applying the current time.
If you want to prevent the cold reboot and force the cell tower time syncronisation you can also go to "SETTINGS - PHONE - GMS/GPRS - TimeSyncronization" disable this and hit O.K. Stay on and now enable this option again and you will have also a cell tower time syncronization. For automaticaly you need to reboot the device again.
Until someone has written a little tool for watching the registry we need to live with this limitation. But i guess this is not a huge limitation.
HOW TO USE:
HTC_TimeZone_Patch.cab is self explaining. Just download it, install it and enjoy it. If you have a previous version of my patch installed this will overwrite the existing settings. If u use this cab file reset the device after installation and when it's up you need to reboot it a secound time.
Problem is also if you are traveling around and you switch from 3G to EDGE or GPRS this time sync value will be also overwritten.
If you are using this patch with the current LEO DST Patch (LOL) this doesn't matters. I don't know what the hell the have written into this files but my patch is not causing troubels to this.
This patch is device independend. If you are using a other device than the HD2 (LEO) wich has also the time sync issue it should also work. Would be great to get some feedback about this.
UsedFiles.zip is the complete collection what I have used to get this patch running. If you want to build it into your ROM or you want to see what will happens on your device use it.
SourceCode.zip here I would need some help from someone other. Inside this file are 2 souce code files (CPP and VB) which should solve the RegistryChange Notification API. I just want to have that the RegKey [HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\DisableTimeSync] will be monitored. But after 12 years using the last time an compiler I have currently no clue how to solve this. If someone has experiance within C++ or VB.NET this should be not a big issue because both files are good templates.
Would be great if someone of you can check this files and write the EXE for this. Thanks in advance.
please can you help me
hi i did install the patch and the time is 2 hours minus than the real time i'm on +2 greece... if i uninstal the patch the time goes +1 hour every time i make a reboot .... can you help me fix this ?? the patch that you made is very good but is not for my time zone . i have the problem from the provider i think cuz without the sim it works ok the time . i try to take out the automatic sync from settings but after reboot is cliked again. please if you can help me send me an email on [email protected]

Post me the content of this registry keys and which country you are living:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time
TIP:
It might be also a solution if you delete the value within HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time
There you will find only ONE value which will rebuilded after knocking on the time server. Just delete this key and give it a reboot.
Thanks!

If you are able to do a factory reset do it, check the registry for this:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]
"HomeDST"=dword:00000000
"AppInfo"=hex:\
01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,6E,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 ,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"TZIndex"=dword:0000006E
"SoundAlarmAlways"=dword:00000001
"NetworkTimeNotifyUser"=dword:00000001
"AutoDST"=dword:00000001
"NetworkTimeSync"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
TimeZone=-
Make sure that [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] has no more keys in addition. Reboot. Check the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]
again and there MUST be an additional key named "HomeDST"=dword:00000000
Leave the settings within HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time as is is.
The TimeZone key within [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila] is only available if you do a power on after factory reset when you have SIM PIN enabled. Would be great if you can disable PIN for the very first reboot.
1. Disable PIN for the SIM
2. Factory reset
3. Go ahed with the setup like always, just basics and i.e. remove the camera icon from the home Menue. Just to make sure that the device writes something to the registry into your user profile.
4. Reboot
5. Change registry only within [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]
6. Reboot
7. Be patient and check the time
Can you confirm?
Independed if it's working or not, please send me the Registry of your Device with the four keys within the 1st posting.
It would be a great thing if you are using CeRegistry Editor and you are able to send me a complete backup of the complete registry which should be round about 2MB.
Thanks!

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time
the first patch was working ok but it was not the acurate time.... i dont know what to do ... i'm thinking to instal a custom cooked rom for my hd2 t-mobile... this will be the last resort .
again thank you for taking interesst in this problem .
Ok. This thing becomes more and more crazy! *lol*
After 4 or 5 times patching the registry it's not longer possible to patch successfully the registry. I don't know if this problem is related to my device or if this is a problem to my Registry Editor. My device is doing some strange things... Just wait until the end of this storry!!
So, let's start from scratch - and I guess I have a final solution:
1. Flash the device from scratch
2. Just DELETE (!) the followed registry entries:
REMOVE THIS KEY AND EVERYTHING INSIDE COMPLETE:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time]
YOU CAN'T REMOVE THE NEXT KEY. JUST DELETE EVERY VALUE WITHIN THIS KEY! IF IT'S POSSIBLE DELETE THE "AppInfo" value ALSO!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]
"Home"
"HomeDST"
"SoundAlarmAlways"
"NetworkTimeNotifyUser"
"NetworkTimeSync"
IF IT'S EXIST - DELETE IT:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"TimeZone"="-60"
Now, when everything is done, my device is switching to 13:05 GMT +1, September the 29th. The GMT+1 is related to the value of [HKLM\Time] because TimeZoneInformation is telling W. Europe Standart Time GMT +1. If you have a different time zone this date is relatet to your value.
Anyway - it's great!!!!!! From my point of view, this is a sign that there will be a "time reset" on the device.
Just do a reboot, be patient and after round about 1 or 2 Minutes and your current Date is valid but time is wrong.
For me it will display Current time GMT +2.
Now go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] REMOVE the HomeDST value which is "0" (zerro) and type "AutoDST" with value 1.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]
"AutoDST"=dword:00000001
Disconnect cable and 5 or 10 seconds later you see the valid time. Do you think this is great??? NO!!!!
Now - let's do a second flash from scratch and tell me what you will see!
After flashing it the 2nd time I disconected the device and boot it up. I have done the default setup (...yes, yes, next, next, next - finish) and saw that my time was not valid to +1 hour. Weather update was running and - uhhhh???
Time AND Date was valid!!!!! Double checked the Registry entries and they are still the same as bevor. BUT even with or without SIM PIN the TimeZone value is not set.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"TimeZone"="-60"
No, nada, nothing. Niet!! I'm not able to get it...
I have done this now 2 more times and I have still the right time after flashing WITHOUT patching the registry or patching the device.
My device is now sleeping this night without the batterie because I want to see what will happens tomorrow morning after 7 hours without power when I plug it in. Nasty devices will be punished hard
Double check this and confirm this way please!!!
I plugged the batterie back and pressed VolumeUp + VolumeDown + PowerOn together for factory reset.
Device is booting and running within default setup. I was tracking the registry and the default time on the device is GMT - British Time [HKLM\Time\TimeZoneInformation] which is based on the firmware by default.
Start the setup with stupid next, skip, skip, ... finish!
It comes up with GMT british time but 5sec later I have had the right time & TimeZoneInformation within the device.
If someone is able to explain this that would be great!
UPDATE!
Check the first posting pls and don't try to do this with any other firmware. It will not work...
Currently there are a lot of questions why without any answer...
Now it's finaly working. No need for a reset, no need to flash, nothing to do.
Just use the CAB file and be happy!!!
Update!
Now you have also the right time after a restart!
Thanks a lot for your work!
I tried the cab and it seems to work
I have only one question...well that's more like a curiosity: I tried to re-enable both the auto sync option in the sense settings and in wm phone settings, and it doesn't work. In fact I have to keep the wm one disabled and use only the sense settings auto sync option enabled. Is this the normal behaviour? And, why nobody at microsoft or htc is thinking about the release of a fix while it is clear that it's a wm bug (and also a very annoying one)?
I know most probably you can't have an answer for my last question...
Again, Thank you very much!!

This issue is related to HTC and it's depend on the rilphone.dll...

Dear MrT69 !
Thanks for diggin into this crap porduced by HTC, doing THEIR work and finding a solution as posted in the cabs.
Before I install I would have to know on WHICH ROM You are (1.66, 1.72 ?), which rilphone.dll and what exactly Your cabs 1.00 and/or 1.01 do.
From long experience in this forum I know: the better the infos BEFORE installing a mod the less trouble with freezes afterwards ...........
Thanks again for Your fabulous work !

Well, yes...if it doesn't take you too much time to explain what your cab does and some technical details it will be surely appreciated
My doubt is: rilphone.dll is a library i think...so why the auto update function works with the sense settings option and not when I check the windows mobile phone setting to synchronize with network time?
Thanks a lot!
