Hey guys,
I have a questions about the "Contacts" soft key. I recently installed and then uninstalled Contacts Breeze on my 8125. After uninstalling, the "Contacts" seems to have lost it's path. When I press the button, it doesn't take me to my contacts. I now have Pocket Informant installed. Is it possible to change the path in the registry to direct me back to the default Contacts or PI's Contacts?
Also, is it just me or is the ringer not loud enough?
Thanks for your help.
no idea about the contacts softkey, but my ringer's quiet too. I read somewhere that it depends on what ROM you have. I'm on 02 UK
Been checking here, hofo, and other forums and still can't find the fix. Can anyone tell if it is possible to change the path of the Contacts right soft key back to it's default location?
phaijai: check in the wiki for how to change the softkeys to whatever you want.

Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
Code:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
Code:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = Calendar (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
Code:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
Code:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created.
Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx

Hi Guys,
What do you think are the best registry edits on the TD2 and what do they do?
I have been looking through the old ones for the TD1 and i have been changing thinks like the GPS enable on the camera ETC.
Any good suggestions you might have to improve the TD2 experience would be gratefully appreciated
yah.like a compilation of regedits would be great along with its description
the only one I know if PHM regedit, it works fine with the D2
sk tools
sk tools...the best! cleanes , optimises,...the whole lot
i think he don't mean the best registry editor. He means the hack to do with the reg editor.

You're absolutely right
My bad

Dear All,
How to remove or delete the new key from PHM Registry Editor? Thank you.
Autolock
"Automatically lock your Diamond 2 (from way back in the daimond days)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable from 0 to 1 and everytime your backlight goes off the device is locked"
When I do this my device locks itself automatically after few secons even though I've set the backlight to go off after 30 seconds. Does anybody have a solution that can handle this problem?
thanks!
Code:
Manila Home softkeys:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila
String HomeLSKArguments //app argument, optional
String HomeLSKPath //app path
String HomeLSKText //left softkey text
String HomeRSKArguments //same, but for key on right side
String HomeRSKPath
String HomeRSKText

You mean that after this hack Manilla will auto-rotate according to its orientation, or will it PERMANENTLY be in landscape mode?

I can't get this to work for TomTom, basically I have :
1. Add string value to HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
String: Mobile Navigator Value: \Program Files\Navigator\TomTom Audio Fix.exe
2. Add string value to HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
String: Mobile Navigator Value: TomTom Audio Fix
Not sure what is wrong here.
I think you have to add tomtom itself instead of the audio fix, because the audio fix loads the tomtom app.
[Edit] Just read the previous post, apparently I'm wrong.

I use a program called changescreen, it auto rotates by default but you can specifiy which apps you don't want to rotate. This works for TomTom + everything else. I didn't want to have to use an app to rotate, I'd rather have the phone take care of it but the rotate implementation on the D2 is pretty half-arsed. The reason I have to use this is because I'm left handed and tilt clockwise, htc in their infinite wisdom only tilts anticlockwise, for right handed people.

I want to use iContact as default contact manager on my hd2, but I can not map the key "Contacts".
I guess you have to edit the registry, but I'm not sure that change
I would appreciate some help.
I've found the solution!
Code:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila
HomeLSKPath = !"\Archivos de programa\iContact\iContact.exe"
HomeLSKText = Contactos
thx
works brilliant
