Touch Tips & Tweaks !

Hi All,
I am sure many of you have some tweaks for the Touch to make it a better phone. I prefare "Registry" tweaks, there is a little lag when you end call, like 3 seconds & i cant find the Tweak for it in the registry.
So if you have some tweaks you think they are usefull, please feel free to post them here.
Thank you All.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting]
Change the value of EndCallTime from 3000 to 1000 (that's one second). Enjoy!

what does it realy do? more precise endCallTime?
Thanks
Math

Yeah... in milliseconds... 3000 = 3, 1000 =1... pretty neat!

"there is a little lag when you end call, like 3 seconds & i cant find the Tweak for it in the registry"
It reduces that lag from 3000ms to 1000ms (or whatever value you type)

me too...italian rom
where is this setting?

i dont have that registry key already... should i add it? if so what exactly should the registry key say?

unfortunatly that key does not exsist in the registry, its avalaible on the Touch Dual, so anymore on that ?
Can we add that key ? Anymore usefull tweaks?

i have touch enhanced 256 MB version with English ROM and even I dont have this key.
Please help somebody. this 3 secs wait is damn annoying for me

Seems to be a very nice tweak for the Touch Dual.
Have the Touch Surface 1.31WWE on my Elf, but reg-key unfortunately also not avail in that rom.
We might ask very nicely to one of the great cooks on this forum...

Lets hope someone knows how to cut that 3 seconds lag, its ticking me off.
Pretty Please =)

Just add it...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting (not that there shouldn't be a space between Extend and Setting)
3000 = 3 seconds and so out

So we must make a new folder inside the PHONE folder named PhoneExtendSetting. In that folder add a new regkey with the name EndCallTime and give that the value 1000. Is that correct ?

You need a registry editor to access to this section of Windows Registry

where do i find that registry tweak downloader thing at?

I tried it on the Touch and I don't see any difference. What delay are you exactly talking about, is it the time the Touch takes to get back from the Dialing screen to the Home screen? If so, it doesn't work on the 'normal' Touch.

ok, i have exported the file using Klimregedit. just import it on ur elf & it should work, i have the settings set to 0 "ZERO" not 1000.
Please rename the extension to .reg

Disable Jog Dial

Is there a was to stop the middle D Pad/Jog Dial from working as it spins? I would rather use it as a regular D pad.

Anyone have any idea's?

still looking for an answer

155 views so far... guess there is no way to do this?

Same problem for me, i'd like to disable it, because when using the Cruise on motorbike, volume in Tomtom turn down to 10 % with the vibrations transmitted to the jog ....

Yeah I hope someone has an answer

Still hoping there is an answer out there?

0
here is a solution
Try this registry tweak found by me yesterday.
Greate the key in HKCU\ControlPanel\keybd\ named JogWheelSensitivity type DWORD
Value 0 is max sensitivity. More value - min sensitivity.

[Q] Is it possible to make the phone stay in a fixed orientation?

As the titlequestion says, is it possible? I want my X1 to stay in landscapemode, AT ALL TIMES.
Registry, hack or impossible? All answers accepted

Um... I won't be of much help here, because I don't know how it was done, but i heard it was possible. So keep searching .

Start->Settings->System(Tab)->Screen->General(Tab) Screen Orientation Portrait/Landscape Dunno if permanent until you change it.

Yes, it's possible using mortscript. Then one would wonder, why would you want that?

Easy thing:
Get Schaps Advanced Config tool. Go to the setting where you can set the display orientation. Set 270 degrees to "True", 0, 90, 180 to "False".
The slideout will no longer rotate back to portrait now.
Keep in mind that other tools (AEButton, QuickMenu) can still rotate the screen if they want.

Scenario: I type in an adress in Opera, and slide in the keyboard; - the phone changes orientation (to my irritation). I have several other scenarios that (certainly) only annoy me..

SORRY so much! I had it all wrong. However, I found the solution on here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1506552&postcount=3 <--- seems like it's slow though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1587938&postcount=6 <--- I think thats better.

You've been very helpful, and I thank you The ultimate would of course be to find a registrysetting that cancels the whole orientationchangethingy, but this will absolutely help.
... X1 is really a device for me. by now I have changed EVERYTHING to my liking, even this

And i want to add that you can asign a button to do that, i mean one of the to button in config, the soft button the ones that we used to hard reset phone...

Faster End Call Time / Hangup

Found this ..
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting]
"EndCallTime"=3000
The 3000 is the default 3 seconds... make it 1000 which means it takes 1/3rd the time to end a call.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting]
"EndCallTime"=1000
Touch Pro2 - Mobile 6.5
Ok Added files ..
1000 1-Sec.
500 1/2-sec
0 0-sec
Becarfull 0 sec could cause problems :/

worked like a charm
i would have never thought to change this setting but i had noticed the lag in ending a call. great idea!

Thanks .. Not my Idea .. But Did it work for you?

Double check, but the "advanced configuration tool" has that in it, so if you are a little gun shy about screwing with the registry, you can set it from there.
Personally, I like messing with the registry.

yeah, it worked great. thanx again for the post.

Gotta ask since one you 'hang up' you cant stop the process why other than feeding the telco an extra 3 seconds would they implement this?

worked for me. nice!~

Hello guys im a Touch HD user so in the Advanced Tool app you have this option and i did the delay to be "0" Now my phone not have any delay for End Call time / Hangup
whay im sayin this because you can edit it even to "0" to be much more faster.

Not sure .. But I would think setting it to 0 could cause someones phone to hang :/
But Give it a try ~

On my Blackstone im with 0 and all is perfect and superb fast hangup without ANY DELAY just try

Are you crazy or what?? It's the most sensitive screen now. I just barely touch the screen to type...Or...are u a ghost? Maybe that's why the screen can't detect ur fingers..

He asked a question, didn't ask for your opinions on the screen.
...
There are some reg tweaks and apps to change the sensitivity, check the t-mo sub forums for some reg hacks

i agree with supp dude 1, before the update it was really nice and sensitive, now i have to put pressure on the screen, it sucks haha

I barely have to touch my HD2, I have the feeling that I haven't touched it yet and it detects, so I am not sure what's up with yours, unless you are abnormal and have very low body current or something idk

Yes!! Same thing happed for me. Im not joking. Is the biggest pain for me. What can I do?

if you look in the rom development section, and in the energy rom thread theres info on a registry entry to change that adjusts the toiuch screen sensitivity.
Im having to increase the sensitivity after an upgrade of this room as it has been decreased. I dont understand why the sensitivity was changed as it was great the way it was.

I just tested the reg edit and its helped wonders for me, before it felt like the phone was lagging and being unresponsive, now the screen is sensitive again
HKLM\HARDWARE\Setting\TouchPanel\FingerThreshold = 20 (originally 25)
HKLM\HARDWARE\Setting\TouchPanel\FingerupThreshold = 20

lower values make it more sensitive, i have them both set at 20 and its nice and responsive, before it was set at 31 and 19

HKLM\HARDWARE\Setting\TouchPanel\FingerThreshold = 20 (originally 25)
I cant find the HARDWARE Thing.
I only see Classes_root
Current_user
Local_machine
_user

Remember it's capacitive so you have to use your fingers. (skin not so much nails)

HKLM stands for Local Machine(the LM part)

e.t.c...so you want to look into the local machine..
