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

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 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.
This may have been done before but if you wish to remove the sodding bar the one that slows your XDA down with those grotesk icons, just delete the Active file, in windows/startup, Ive backed it up just in case.
Anyone know how to delete the O2 logo on the start menu?
Delete the connections program from in the startup directory.
After every softreset the link to the Sim Toolkit is recreated in the startmenu -> programs folder. This is really annoying as I just don't use this program. Is there any way maybe in the registry to prevent it from being created? I am using the newest official T-Mobile GER ROM but i already had this problem with the first ROM that was installed.
I have the same problem!
i want to disable the stk menu from WM5
Did anyone tell me how to do?
Ok, I got an idea. Might sound stupid and is not the most ellegant solution but it will work: Why don't we put together a little program that deletes the shortcut and we put this program in the startup folder? This way the icon won't reappear after each soft-reset.
Can anybody here do this for me? Just a simple little program to delete the file. The one which needs to be deleted is:
\\Windows\Startmenü\Programme\Special.lnk
Thank you so much!
there is no stk.lnk shortcut in my windows\startup folder
but my stk menu is automatic start! why?
Hi there,
I'm having the same problem, in that there is a link to the STK appearing in my programs folder on each reset. I have tried deleting and moving the icon, setting it to 'hidden', and altering the registry setting (\\Windows\Startmenu\Programmes\O2.lnk (it's slightly different to the example in an above post, but it does link to STK)) to place it in a sub-folder called Phone (i.e. \\Windows\Startmenu\Programmes\Phone\O2.lnk), but on each reset my changes are removed.
Has anyone got any ideas how to permanently remove this - or at least how it is being recreated each reset? Is it installed as part of the O2 Active software?
Cheers all

I want to modify the tray icons. I've just updated my T-Mobile (UK) Vario 2 with the official T-Mobile WM6 ROM and there is a set of T-Mobile tray items as default. I know I can delete the lot (either rename TrayAp.exe or delete the registry entry) and by modifying the registry enties for the TrayApplet, I can disable them. However, I cannot remove the icons.
If I delete the folders (e.g. folder named 4) when I soft reboot it comes back again.
I suspect TrayAp.exe is doing this. If so, can someone point me to a generic TrayAp.exe which I can then load/modify.
Cheers
Dave
Is there a .cab file to remove the softkeys phone and menu? Or any other way to remove them
