Change T-Mobile Dialer skin

I have a T-Mobile Vario that have a dialer T-Mobile skin. Can I change this skin to default WM5 dialer (blue)?
Thanks
Yep I want to do this as well the T mobile dialer skin is well poo realy had no probs on my XDA II
Try searching 'dialer skin' in search.
Thats how I found WM5 dialer skin for my JAM.
Good luck 8)
Tried that with No luck
1. Using a registry editor - edit the following registry entry: 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'.
2. The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be '1' for the T-Mobile skin or '0' for the default WM5 skin. You will probably find a '1' in your t-mobile device and '0' if you have an I-Mate or QTEK
3. Change the value of the above so that that you get: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0'
4. Soft Reset and you should see the defaul WM5 dialer.
5. In the background of the dialer you will probably see a small faded T-Mobile logo. If this irritates you - you can get rid of it too by:
6. Download the following file:
http://members.home.nl/pieterstroink/GoT_startpost/K-JAM/carrierlogo.gif
carrierlogo.gif (right click, save as)
7. Do not change the name of the file, it must remain carrierlogo(.gif)
8. Find the original carrierlogo.gif file on your MDA Vario - it should be in the windows directory. Overwrite this file with the file that you have just downloaded.
9. Soft reset
10 Done
T-Mobile dialer OUT
Thanks Lisa... work!
Thanks for this...

Smartdialler??
Hello,
Now, I haven't SmartDialer/interllidialer!!!
I don't know if was after this change or after delete Extended_ROM2 files; but I have .CAB files and not any smartdialer CAB (only smart dialer enabler)!
Can somebody help? Or send this CAB file?
Thanks
The blank carrier logo worked, but the DWORD value still keeps resetting itself to "1" again after a soft reset...
What am I doing wrong?
[EDIT] Oh well..... somehow the phonepad changed and when I look up my registry the value now is (and stays) at "0".
Don't ask me how or what.... but it's fine now. :wink:
Last question: does anyone know how to erase/change the T-Mobile boot screen (when you do a soft reset)?
THNX.
SmartDialer
Well... it is true... if change registry value 1 to 0 put WM5 skin, but SmartDialer don't work.
If change again 0 to 1 smartdialer work (and dialer too) but with T-Mobile skin... that is not beauty!
Somebody know how put Dialer and SmartDialer WM5 skins at T-Mobile Vario?
Thanks

Can't overwrite carrierlogo.gif
I can change to dialer skin fine with the registry key, but I can't overwrite the T-mobile carrierlogo.gif - it is always write-protected. How can I make it stop being read-only, so I don't get 'access denied' when attempting rename/delete?
Maybe put phone at Flight mode that off communications...
hi lisa just looking at your post. how do you edit the registry. or how do you get to the hkey menu
many thanks
Well I tried changing the value DWORD value from 1 to 0 but I just get a access denied message, any help?
anyone??????

I have the same problem, I searched the intire forum but couldn´t get a solution for this problem.
I can´t change my logo neither, I also get the message "acces denied or write protect"
can someone help....

I had the same problem when copying files from the PC to the phone so I copied them in a temporary folder on the phone and then used the total commander (free) on the phone to move/copy files to the desired destination. There is a warning message of overwriting, but it worked for me
good luck
I use PHM Regedit to set KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0'. I had the same problem with Enabled =0 changing back to 1. what I did was to backup the registry before doing a soft reset.
Changing the carrierlogo.gif, if you use Total Commander or GSFinder go to options and make sure the Rom files are hidden otherwise you are trying to overwrite carrierlogo.gif in the Rom.
Removing TMO phone skin is easy:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enable=1
Remove DIALER a PROGRESS entries under the Skin entry.
But if you modify these entries in some registry app, after soft reset they will be back, so best way is do it during instalation phase. I've created a few cabs for:
enable phone skin
disbale phone skin
remove skin registry entries and changing smart dialer skin to blue.
Changing Phone pad to qtek's one.
If would some want i can attach them here or upload them to the ftp.

Enable MMS folder via Registry

Hi guys,
Question....does someone maybe know the registry settings to enable the mms folder in WM5?
Sure I know I can use a cab for it, but I am trying to find out what registry settings are needed to enable the MMS folder without installing the CAB file.
I am looking for the specific settings for a HTC Wizard, but settings from another HTC phone would be a good indication to start (I hope).
Regards, thanks and to all a very happy new year (of developing),
Molski
One of the CAB files I posted (I think) had it in it.. And I know I've seen the keys around here somewhere.. Unfortunately, I don't have an 8125 any more though, and I'm not quite finished with poking around my 8525 yet (planning on unlocking the ExtROM today so I can start deciphering CAB files).
I'll let you know what I come up with from the 8525 perspective.
I found your CAB file and I extracted it.
Unfortunately the same results as I have with the T-Mobile MMS Folder cab....it doesnt work
I install the CAB file, the MMS folder shows up, I export all the MMS Registry settings, do a hard-reset, import all the Registy settings and no MMS folder showing up.
I think it has something to do with the following registry values:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\EntryID]
"Deleted Items"=dword:00009F00
"Inbox"=dword:0000F79F
"Outbox"=dword:00005FBB
After a hard-reset and installing this CAB file every time the values are different??
Could be. I'm honestly not too sure. But whateve reg values are in that CAB I've used over countless resets.
I'm getting ready to walk out the door in a few minutes, but when I get to my buddy's place I should be able to sit down for a few and look at the CAB and see what's in there again and go from there.
Take a good look at the values I posted....I really think it has something to do with those values changing every time you install the cab after a hard-reset.
Thanks!
Molski
Which CAB file are you using? I see a couple that I've posted.. Want to make sure I'm looking at the right one..
Beside having the MMS Folder to appear, I think you should have a service provider cab in ExtRom to configure to the right Service Provider's Server or you have to manually key it.
I am not sure if Wizard is the same.
cab files like mms folder and contain the values of certification on them it cannot be integrated so far, i tried,when you install a cab like mms, it writes several numbers to the cert part of the registry,once you install another cab that contains cert values ,it just overwrites the old values .
this is why the service providers never integrates such settings.
all this values that the mms cab writes to the registry can be found in the .XML file ,but must of them are build in the setup .dll ,the dll is coded with a set of instructions ,and this are the one that enable mms.
lets say you manage to extract all the reg settings for mms,then build into a custom cab this is all fine,but now you also want to integrate lets say..smardialing,well u cant because when you export the reg settings from one it overwrites the other because they use the same address in the registry.(cert}
I already have integrated SmartDialing in the default.hv and it works, will install a few cert apps and check if Smartdialing still works.
The only thing that is giving problems so far are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\EntryID]
"Deleted Items"=dword:00009F00
"Inbox"=dword:0000F79F
"Outbox"=dword:00005FBB
I checked every settings that is created by the MMS folder Cab, but only these settings will change after installing the CAB.
But after reading your answer Faria, I think we cannot create inbox folders for whatever via the default.hv, is this true?
Thanks,
Molski.

Smart Dialing working?
When?
How?
Where?
Please tell us.
These registry values are included in default.hv and/or user.hv
And it works
Maybe I forget something, but test it and let me know!

p.s. These Reg values are from a HTC Wizard

yes smartdialing works .i did it a month ago....but mms no.
once you put the cert settings for one of those cabs into the default hive its fine... but if you put another cab settings from another program into it,it gets overwrited .

Try this recommendation.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1430497&postcount=65

You'll have to be a little more specific about what you've done in order for members to help. Any way, if you're talking about HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml , try renaming the original file in \windows to something else first (or move the ori file to some other folder), then copy the new file to \windows.
HI
i tried to rename, delete or overwrite the original file but i get an error " can not rename HH_409..... access denied. make sure you have sufficient memory, that the file is not set read-only and you have permission to copy the file type.

Try this... Use Total Commander, point to the file, properties, change the attributes (uncheck the read-only). It should be ok.
I guess im doing something wrong i installed the totalcomander in the properties i see its tab read only in properties i unchecked the read only but when i go back to the file it appears again read only. i went into Edit but i get an error -- file to big.
any suggestions where I'm going wrong ?

I am not sure how else I can help you. Now try this.
1) Use Activesync - Copy the file to your PC (definitely editable on PC using Notepad), edit and save.
2) Copy back to any temporary directory in Jade (activesync)
3) Use TC to copy to \windows (keep a safe copy of original file somewhere)
Attached is my .xml file in case you may want to compare and copy to \windows.
Or follow this :

Hi azahidi
Thanks for all your efforts but no luck i think i guess there is something in the rom that dose not let me add cites i think the problem is in the registry. will use the phone with out weather.
another question i have may be you can help when i get a call and i answer the screen immediately goes black and then i need to open the phone each time the screen dose not stay on during the call.
Thanks
i copied your file i sow in total commander that the read only is un checked but yet i don't get the list of cities in the Weather Plug-in, i think the main problem is hear the registry and under hkey_local_machine
--software -- HTC --manila2D -- weather -- i found 0 to 4 each one represents a deferent city like Singapore bangkok i wonder how the registry looks in other jades.

In my HKLM\software\HTC\manila2D\weather, I have 0 to 5 and I figure out that this corresponds to the last 5 cities that I have added to the Weather Tab. I don't think this is the reason for your problem. I still believe it has something to do with HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml. another suggestion here
1) copy the file I posted into any folder
2) Change properties - check Read only, check System - click ok
3) copy to \windows (replace current one) keep original one somewhere.
4) soft reset
One more thing to check: HKCU\MUI\CurLang value should be 1033 not 409.

Well i copied the file did everything but still not able to add cites in the tuchfl weather application i think may be the problem is in the registry as follows.
HKLM--software--htc--manila2d--weather--in weather appl.

LocalWidget--0
MovetoWidget--0
Restart--0
then i have 4 bilt in countries 0-4Sing,bangkok,ech.. had 0-5 origenly but delited one by mistack,

Does it mean that you just cannot select and add another city (but just the 4) OR you can select but cannot update.
If you cannot select, check HKCU\MUI\Curlang. Is it 1033 or 409? If it is 409 you have to change to HH_0199_WeatherCities.xml
I don't think it's to do with the reg setting.
i cannot select or add any another city in the weather application in the tchfl. menu -- add location screen is blank like a read only screen in the place were to add a city can nor write any thing.
regarding HKCU\MUI\Curlang. i have 8201

I think that's the problem (See my previous post #7) follow this for explanation of codes. http://techsupt.winbatch.com/TS/T000001050F49.html HKCU\MUI\CurLang value should be 1033 or 409
Hope it works this time.
Just an FYI: I also got my Jade from Starhub here in Singapore, and I can add locations to the weather tab in TF2D... I can actually add cities in countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe...
At long last works can update any city changed to 1033
thanks for your help

Carrier Setting File

I have 50 generic HD2 T8585 units for my business. I was wondering if there was an easy way to author a tool that would allow my carrier settings to be flashed into the phone so I wouldn't have to manually type each setting in each phone? In the past I've used rapitool.exe with a good XML file, but that doesn't work for HD2 even though I'm successful in pushing the file.
HELP

you can convert xml files to cabs. I don't have a link for you, not at my pc, but google xml to cab and you should find something.
