HTC should have warn us that Excel editing is almost impossible in this capacitive screen,,, now I know why Iphone does not include it !!!
I tried some POgo capacitive pens (cost HKD 35) for IPhone but it does not work well on HD2...the seller confirms thatit only works well for Iphone..
I need my excel everyday..and I am coming from HD...
Anyone has a better suggestions aside from returning this thing ??
I have no trouble using Excel on the HD2 - took me a while to work out that you have to tap and hold on screen for highlighting cells, but other than that, works well for me
I can only use Excel when it is in landscape mode. I had to install a Long Press Call Button hack to enable landscape use. But now it is at least usable.
I think I really need a stylus... It's really hard to tick drop down menus..and small cells..
Any one knows of better solution aside from returning this ?
With pinch-to-zoom, tap-and-hold to select a range of cells, and Gyrator 2 to rotate it to landscape I don't think you'll need a stylus, although you will be a bit slower.
I had that too

In the beginning, I had that same problem, but - after a bit of calibrating your eye-finger coordination, I MISS a cell only one in (about) 10 clicks.
And I work with 28 cells per screen height (portrait) - that's about 3mm cell height.
(I had a problem selecting a range - but by chance, I figured that the trick is to hold your fingger down for about 1.5 seconds.
Then a <[ T ]> symbol appears for a 0.5 senods, indicating that if you drag
your finger, it would go into section selection mode instead of Scroll mode)
Edit - try the "DAGi" stylus - its transparent, and pretty accurate,
abd there are 2 samples on youtube showing the difference between the pogo snd the DAGi Styli
I know you may not want to hear it ... but if you do a lot of Excel, you should get Softmaker Office 2008. It is pretty much a equal to desktop office.
Yes ... things are still small .... but using zooomer ... you can easily use everything with your finger ...
In fact ... aside from editing some cells when the font is really small ... I have no difficulties at all ... Zooomer is your friend.
Cheers

Anything for total commander ?
I tried adding in the module
TotalCommander = "\Program Files\Total commander\cecmd.exe"
and in the the whiteList
TotalCommander = "Total Commander"
But it did not rotate.
what should I change ?
(And how would I know what to change with other programs ?)
Thanks

See this tute.
Use this app.
You open an app then look in DotFred/Windows for the name of the window, then add it to the reg whitelist.
Thanks
Edit:
Ok, found ut the problem -
you need the window Class, and not the window Title (not the string in "", but the name that comes after it)
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.
I tried it (With total commander),
and foud that except "Total Commander/CE" there were 2 more windows,
but still - even after adding these windows and the "Total Commander/CE",
it did not rotate . . .
Any thoughts ?

Switched from a SX66, on my second 8125. Both have been incredibly slow loading programs, switching between screens etc. 20 - 60 second waits. Phone is great when works. Must soft reset multiple times a day.
I use 10,000+ contacts and XpressMail, small amount of tasks and calendar, that is it. No third party programs.
Any ideas on how to speed this thing up?

Cingular's stock ROM is way slow, locks ups and needs frequent reboots. All of the ROM upgrades here have been better than what came on the phone. Right now summiter's efforts seem to be most beneficial to us Cingular owners. And you're in for a treat 'cause he figured out how to go back to the original if needed...

Maybe... I just tested the link and it's OK. Change over to the Wizard upgrading etc forum and look for Cingular 8125 users: 2 custom RUU upgraders available .
Good luck!
Quick solution is to hard reset and then soft reset before Ext rom loads. You have to then manually load XpressMail, but speed is now much better.
I am having some bluetooth disconnect issues, still need to figure that out. Was working fine with cingular ext rom.
Any ideas?
xpressmail blows. too bad you need to use it. as for speed-tweaks, here's a list of reg-edits that includes a few that keep my c8125 moving at a decent pace while i wait for a cingular 2.xx rom update.

Hello guys!
I have taken a look at wiki to find a tweaks that would improve performance/responsiveness of our devices (no matter what hardware or OS you are using) - whether via registry or via settings. I found several such a tweaks (by Cyphol) in Hermes forum:
Performance tweaks that will improve responsiveness of your ROM no matter which you choose (Only tested on WM6 but should work on WM5 too):
1. Improve performance/response time:
- Start > Settings > Phone => Keypad = Off
- Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications; Under Sound Tab => Disable/Untick Events (warings, system events) - this tweak will BRUTALLY increase the responsiveness of Start menu and Quick Menu 2.7 (because system will no more have to search for sound files in the ROM everytime you tap the screen)
2. Your Windows Mobile device is just like your Windows PC. So, soft reset it before going to sleep (or whenever appropriate) once a day to make it runs good at all time (because of the memory leak when you close the program not all the memory is restored - sof reset restores RAM lost due to Memory leak).
3. Make sure you install the today plugin apps such as Resco Today Plugin etc. on the internal/device memory. Some today plugin can be installed on the storage card but it'll slow down your system performance a bit.
4. Do not install too many apps on the internal/device memory. Leave as much free space as you can on it. Check whether it can be install on the storage card or not. Normally, don't let it become as low as 8MB free but 10MB is enough already.
5. Know what you're doing such as tampering your system registry. Make sure it can be done and you're doing it the right way. If not, then leave it as is.
6. Never let your device go to sleep by itself. Do it manually by pressing the power button everytime when you've finished using your device.
7. Make sure you shutdown the 'Activesync' completely after activesyncing your device with your PC. You can use task manager (X-Button), Magic Button etc or you can use memory applet in setting > System > memory; Running Programs
More tweaks/hints form Nothin:
hint for cookers:
- removing unused keyboards, and today plugins(registry cuts) may have influence too.
- reediting system gfx resources(like gfxes in dialpads etc) may make device faster
- /windows/startup and hklm/init removals may have influence to overall performance and memory usage.
- wise welcomehead, default "windows default" theme, and generally optimised TSK's may have influenece too( good tsk needs stwater and tdywater ONLY(for portrait/landscape,only 2 images, not 4!), i can recommend themegenCE for making good, fast themes. also - themes without start image(today background only) may be good thing.
- stop using x-button! use alternatives - pbar, quickmenu...
- preconfigs are useful - every program may be optimised by its settings - include preconfigs in oempacks(rgu),
- big pagepool is usually..useless, keep it as small, as possible(min. 4 mb, some says, that 4.5 mb is optimal for normal usage)...
i recommend to use sktools to optimise registry - 24% smaller registry.
Aim of this thread: I will collect your hints/tweaks and put them in the first post, then I will update the wiki.
Please post what works for you and is not mentioned on this list!
Registry Tweaks (kudos Nothin):
Never hide the WirelessManager Tray Icon at the bottom.
Don't believe me?
Try it and feel the difference.
This is the key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000 ;<--- (dword:00000000 to hide and dword:00000001 to show)
first thing:glyphcache.
known thing, BUT, not obvious:
my setting:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE]
"limit"=dword:00020000
it is 131072 dec.
internet says 32768 value as highest.
nope.
every program, that is using fonts will have faster response with very high values(ie,pdf readers, ebook readers..)
next one:
error reporting:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ErrorReporting\UploadSet tings]
"DontUpload"=dword:00000001
controversial one:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS]
"EnableCache"=dword:00000001
"CacheSize"=dword:80
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\f sreplxfilt]
"ReplStoreCacheSize"=dword:00000080
small cache is freeing program memory - i CANNOT see almost any merits with bigger cache. both values should be equal.
next one, cache for system sounds:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event]
"EventCache"=dword:100
small cache is working ok(default is 1536 kb!)
cache for extrom(useless mem eater,imo,as i do not use extrom,it is clean in my roms, completely empty).
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ TRUEFFS_DOC1\FATFS]
"DataCacheSize"=dword:00000010
another ones are windows animations, turn it off, always.
qtek9100/wizard specific(may be useful for other devices too..) battery performance tweaks:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Cl ass\SDMemory_Class]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AsyncMac1]
"Group"="NDIS"
"DisplayName"="AsyncMac NDISWAN Miniport"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AsyncMac1\Parms]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000
"BusType"=dword:00000000
"BusNumber"=dword:00000000
"RebindOnResume"=dword:00000000

"TransceiverType"=dword:00000000
"IntIR"=dword:00000001

"CheckForHangTimeInSeconds"=dword:00000e10
"BusType"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\L2TP1]
"Group"="NDIS"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\L2TP1\Parms]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000
"BusType"=dword:00000000
"BusNumber"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PPTP1]
"Group"="NDIS"
"DisplayName"="PPTP NDISWAN Miniport"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PPTP1\Parms]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000
"BusType"=dword:00000000
"BusNumber"=dword:00000000
Found these in Wiki (WM5 Peformance tweaks):
Disable menu animations
To disable menu animations (sliding in/out) and speed up performance of the UI a bit:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\AniType = 0 (DWORD decimal)
To change it back to the default:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\AniType = 6 (DWORD decimal)
Disable window animations
To disable window animations (minimizing/maximizing) and speed up performance of the UI a bit:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Animate = 0 (DWORD decimal)
And to switch them back on:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Animate = 1 (DWORD decimal)
Increase font cache
To increase the font cache, speeding up font rendering at the cost of a bit of memory:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 16384 (DWORD decimal)
To change it back to the default:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 8192 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like, but suggested values are 4096, 8192, 16384 & 32768.
Enable FileSystem cache
To enable the FileSystem cache, speeding up overall performance at the risk of the cache not being written on a sudden reset:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache = 1 (DWORD decimal)
To disable again:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Note that by default, the cache size is zero, and you will see no effect. See "Increase FileSystem cache" below to increase the cache size.
Increase FileSystem cache
To increase the file system cache:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize = 4096 (DWORD decimal)
To return the file system cache to zero:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize = 0 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like.
Increase FileSystem filter cache
To enable the file system filter cache, speeding up overall performance with file mangement:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize = 4096 (DWORD decimal)
To return the file system filter cache to zero:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize = 0 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like.
Most of these WM5 reg tweaks work on WM6 too. They are included in tweaking programs like Schap's Advanced Config, HTweakC, or HTCustom 1.8.

SIP
The SIP menu trick for Voice Command is worth mentioning here. Credit to whoever found it. It involved exporting the CLSID from the registry, deleting it and then re-importing it again. Speeds up opening the menu dramatically.

Active Sync issues
"8. Make sure you shutdown the 'Activesync' completely after activesyncing your device with your PC. You can use task manager (X-Button), Magic Button etc or you can use memory applet in setting > System > memory; Running Programs"
I'm having some issues with this...every few minutes, ActiveSyc is present in my running programs. I thought this is perhaps due to direct push of emails.
I have disabled directpush so that I only receive email when I manually select send/receive and have only selected a 30 min window (8am-8:30am) for it to automatically check.
Can anyone provide some feedback so that ActiveSync doesn't automatically turn on?
Thanks!
Wow thanks for the tip about the system sounds. Disabled Event Sounds > At least 50% faster response time for my QuickMenu. Sweet.

Used to take several seconds to open the sip menu and now it's instant. Something to do with the system looking for CLSIDs that are set as input methods which is really slow.

Thanks a bunch, will try myself and frontpage it. Once again thanks for the tip.
Furthermore, i would like to know how to change the location of receiving file through bluetooth. The default is /My Document. I wanna change it to /Storage Card/My Documents. Pls advise.
Added some more Tweaks from the Wiki. Next update will be - links to freeware tweaking apps and formating/cleanup of existing entries.
Hell dude, I've been hacking these for ages and I have to say that your first point on the sounds is something I had no idea about - and it makes a great difference. Thanks a stack!
cool
i followed some of your advise and its really faster compared before

To add/remove items from the SIP list
If you have a few items in your SIP list which you don't use, they can be removed from the list by setting the IsSIPInputMethod for each item you want removed. To remove the SIP from the list, replace the $SIP_CLSID$ in the example below with a CLSID from the Set default SIP tweak.:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\$SIP_CLSID$\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 0 (DWORD decimal)
To add it back to the list:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\$SIP_CLSID$\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 1 (DWORD decimal)
The following are some of the ClassIDs:
Typical pre-installed:

To add/remove items from the SIP list
If you have a few items in your SIP list which you don't use, they can be removed from the list by setting the IsSIPInputMethod for each item you want removed. To remove the SIP from the list, replace the $SIP_CLSID$ in the example below with a CLSID from the Set default SIP tweak.:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\$SIP_CLSID$\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 0 (DWORD decimal)
To add it back to the list:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\$SIP_CLSID$\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 1 (DWORD decimal)
The following are some of the ClassIDs:

Thank You very much. I am a tweaking enthusiast much like you and my HTC touch is working very well.
Another tweak I found was similar to this one
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Cl ass\SDMemory_Class]
"DisablePowerManagement"=dword:00000000
Instead of SDMEMORY_Class there was MMC_Class there too and it also had the disablepowermanagement option.
I've disabled that option so it does go into power management mode.

Used to take several seconds to open the sip menu and now it's instant. Something to do with the system looking for CLSIDs that are set as input methods which is really slow.

Hi, i do not understand? If i remove "HKCR\CLSID" and then add it again it's the same **** like before. Why should there be an increase in speed?
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

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

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.

Hi all,
I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia X2. The problem is, its power button is not working 100% right, you have to either press it really hard or use your nail. So i've been trying to find a way to wake the device using a different button, but no luck so far.
I've tried:
Changing the registry key: HKCU\\ControlPanel\Keybd\DefaultKeyLock from 1 to 0. as stated on a different thread, however my phone registry does not have the "defaultkeylock" string.
Installed a CAB for "HTC Key Lock" which lists several options, one of them being the one i want (waking up the device with any key) however, none of them seem to work on the Xperia X2, as soon as I select one and press "OK" i get a blank screen.
I've also installed S2U2 as i *think* i read somewhere before that it has an option to do what i want but i havent been able to find it so far.
Anyone got any advice please ?
Hey man,
Did you solve your issue?
As you can see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501953 I have a similar problem.
I will try the same as you did and if I find anything new I let you know.

Different phones have different keys for this. I suggest You browse through every subkey in HKCU\ControlPanel and HKLM\ControlPanel as I have an old Asus phone and it has a setting for this feature (wakeup with all buttons / power button only) in Settings, which changes the key in HKLM\ControlPanel\AsusSettings\Wakeup\WAKEUP-ENABLE\.
I am a week user in this.
I'm using PHM Regedit in my phone, and look what I found:
HKLM\Hardware\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
It has inside:
Value name: CalVKey
Value Data: 0 (Base Decimal)
Value name: ContLessVKey
Value Data: 0
Value name: ContMoreVKey
Value Data: 0 (Base Decimal)
Value name: Drivername
Value Data: keypad_drv.dll
Value name: Irq
Value Data: 4 (Base Decimal)
Value name: MemBase
Value Data: 2147647488 (Base Decimal)
Value name: TaskManVKey
Value Data: 46 (Base Decimal)
There is also:
HKLU\ControlPanel\Keydb\ChangeBackVKeyCode
inside it:
Value name: OM10-ML-MainWndClass
Value data: 8 (base decimal)

Is there any way to make power button be substituted for any other button of my phone?
