No Owner Information - HD2 General

I just watched a video (still waiting for mine) that said that there was no owner information under settings > Personal I have several programs that use this information to register. Can anyone advise the registry hack to restore this option.
Thanks

I've seen it activated in some of the ROMs running Leo on the X1. I'm sure someone will be able to help you out there ^^

Get a registry editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner, delete the "Redirect" value.

That is how I input my Owner Info into my TP2:
Goto > Setting > Today > Items > uncheck the HTC Sense and check the Owner Info items.
You should see the Owner Info item display on the Today screen where you can input your name from there.

The registry fix doesn't seem to work on HD2...Any other solutions to enter owner info?

Get a registry editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner, change Hide 1 to Hide 0,soft reset and then go to settings/menu/extra/personal and then to the tab owner information.

For the lazy ones or the registrial challanged, here's a .cab that should sort you out. Do a restart for the changes to take effect,

Looks like someone in HTC did'nt do their check properly before finalising the ROM.

Adding icons to program page?

Please I need your help. I added plenty of icons on the front Program page and don't remember any more how and what I did.
Thanks for your reply.
what do you want to do ?
add more or remove them ?
and are you talking about the program menu which has a number of rows of small squares
Thanks for your prompt reply.
You know the bottom line when you scroll your finger you get several pages, such as, Home, Telephone directory ... then at the end Programs. On this last one I did add some extra icons (yes squared) to which I assigned my preferred programs. I know how to delete one or more but not how to add a new ones.
To add more Programsquares:
Registry:
HKLM - Software - HTC - Manila - ProgramLauncher
Currently there are 24 directorys. You can duplicate some an change their names to 24 - ....
In here you can even unlock some fields if your provider did so. Set IsReadOnly from 1 to 0.
I think there will be a perfomancelimit somewehre, so don´t add to much in one time.
That is OK, but I don't remember had done that to add my previous ones. I can recall that I had to pouch a command and that was all.
Anyway, you are right, I might reached the max. of 24 icons.
I think I'll follow your recommendation and avoid to add any more since that might slow down the process.
Many thanks again

I've added 6 additional fields as you explained from 24 to 29, so totally I have 30 fields now and they appear on the programs tab in TF3D.
When you click on one of them (the one I've added), it opens the program list so you can choose one but after you do so the field still blank, so to resume it's not really working despite adding the field.
hmmm... I´ve tested it on diamond an it worked fine. I´ll test it on HD... it will take a moment.

I´m sorry - it really doesn´t work that way. The link is included the right way, icon link to. But it does not show. there are really differences between TF3D for Diamond and for HD.

There should be other registry tweaks to be done.

is it possible to increase the number of programs slot?
Would it be possible to have more than one "programs" tab?

For me, if this was possible it would massively increase the functionality of my HD.
Look forward to your answers.

If you look at the previous post, u can see that it is possible but for some reasons we are not able to add programs inside these tabs, don't know why.
It works fine on the Diamond, but not the Touch HD

Hi Mavrick
This thread is for adding more slots in the same program tabs and not adding more programs tabs in TF3D. Anyway I don't know if you proposal can be done, some expert developers might need to look at it

I looked high and low and this is my final cry for help so to speak... thanks guys in advance I really appreciate it!!!
In ie, go to: m.youtube.com/app
I tried that and m.google.com and received this: phone not supported.
Do I have a wrong setting somewhere?

This is from Xperia but works great too:
http://norti.hu/xperia/youtube_x1.zip
I can only speak for the Tilt 2, but this may work on other TP2's.
Start > Tools > File Manager > Go up a level > Windows > Down at the bottom you'll find "Youtube.lnk"
For easier access you can copy this to Windows\Start Menu\Programs or add it to your TF3D programs list after you exit the program for the first time.
Thank you! nice to know that!!
hard reset it ....

No 'owner information' - needed for Resco Explorer

Hiya guys
Seems that the above is the best file exporer/registry edit software there is for the Leo (the fact that it's made for fingers!) but the registratioin process needs the 'owner' option (see Start/Today) which isn't there! Is there a way around this?

Check carefully whether a vendor is giving you an unlock code based on the owner name or the device name. They are not the same.
> Settings > Menu > All settings > System > Phone identity .
When I try to change "myself" in the contacts list, I can't ? It keeps returning the value previous. In Danish "Mig" (me)? It's impossible to change!
Going to phone Id settings, I have typed in a name for the device, can that be used?
What and where can I find this "Today screen" ?
I have bought the sudoku game from http://www.handango.com/ but I can't register it. It needs a "Windows Mobile Owner Name" ???

Windows Mobile 6.5 Missing Features

Hi, everyone!
Recently I wanted to install Resco Explorer 2008 and, after installation, to activate it, the program looks for "Owner Information".
So, I decided to enter my name in the phone so I can proceed with the installation.
I looked in Start/Settings but there is no such field for "Owner Information".
I also looked for "Power" or "Power Settings" to make adjustments for battery, but I couldn't find that field, either.
I don't know what kind of Windows I have because I don't see any field saying something about the Windows mobile. I wonder, is it possible to have a returned phone that came with a cooked Rom or something?
In Start/Settings/About Phone/Software Information it says "OS version 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82).
Before returning the phone, coould you please verify your phones and let me know if you have:
1. Owner Information (and where it is?)
2. Power or Power Settings (and where it is?)
Aslo, if you know, let me how to check the version of the Operating system.
Many thanks to all!
HKLM\ControlPanel\Owner > change Hide from 1 to 0
Then your owner info is back (I for some reason always had it right from the beginning without changing anything in the registry, using GER 1.48 stock ROM).
To get into the normal WM6.5-settings just go into the settings-tab within Sense and click bottom right.

1. HTC Sense, slide to People, hit All People soft-key, Owner Information in the 'Me' contact!
2. HTC Sense, slide to settings, Menu soft key -> all Settings -> System -> Power
OS Version as 2 above but About instead of Power!!

This is not a bug and just user error. It is a preference within WM, obviously not to your taste though.
As others previously had said owner information is the "Me" person and the power can be achieve by
Start>Settings>Menu>All Settings> System> Power
I did not find the rigth user info either so I downloaded a small app that found it for me, its called "owner information" Here is it http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=265383&d=1262995348

No, I don't have the "Me" on top of People list, I do have "Me" as contact card - but this is not what I am looking for. Prior to installation, Resco is looking for the name of the owner (like a computer within a network) not into my contact list...
On the Microsoft Website, they said to follow these steps:
"In case you lose your Windows® phone , you may want to add owner information, a message, or both owner information and a message that will display when your phone is turned on. Doing so gives someone who may find your phone a way of contacting you.
To add owner information and a message to your phone:
Tap START , tap SETTINGS , tap PERSONAL, and then tap OWNER INFORMATION"
I can go as far as PERSONAL but I don't have any icon for OWNER INFORMATION... Any ideas? thank you.

Perhaps download the free "Total Commander" .CAB file and install it and then do the reg tweak.
edit: by responding to this thread doesn't mean I endorse warez
I will do, so.
By the way, what frequencies you have for 3G? I have HSPA/WCDMA 900/2100 MHz. I wish I would have 700 or 850 for when I'm traveling...

The "ME" contact is the equivalent of owner information.
Fill in the me contact with the same name as you would in owner name.
OR
use the reg hack above to enable owner name.
OR install BSB tweaks to do the reg hack for you.
Thank you. I will do that! I appreciate your help.
A little extra info on this subject, just for reference.
If you have set your owner name by unhiding 'owner info' in personal and entering it there, and then open the 'me' card in people, it doesn't show the owner info you entered in the personal section.
If you then click 'done' in the blank Me contact card, it erases your owner info from the personal owner info, thus reverting resco (and no doubt other progs that rely on owner info for the liscense) back to trial mode, and you must then re activate it.

owner info cab??

Before I installed the new ROM I had a small cab called Owner info(I think) I have searched but cant fin it again. Nice program that lets me change the owner info. Anyone??
[People], [All Contacts] now edit the 'Me' contact

note that only the info you put in the first name box of the 'me' contact card will become the 'actual' windows user id used when unlocking programs such as resco.
(well it did that on mine, and i tested it a few times, heh)
THIS one you mean?
Just install BsB Tweaks... it will allow you to enable the owner panel in Settings, in addition to countless other things.
There's this too that gives you a litle melody when you turn on the phone as well. You have to tick owner info in today settings to enable it.

Start- Settings- (Down bar) Menu- All settings-Personal-Owner?
Why would you need to change the owner information. Do you have the HD2 on time share?
Thanks all, I got it now
@Neville.Holland no, I just did not know what the owner name was after the new ROM
Neville.Holland said:

Because certain programs that you have to pay for, the owner name in the Settings window is used in conjunction with the serial you get for it.
So the program asks you for a serial, and it will only work with the right name in owner's info in Settings.
