The most annoying thing ever!
The bloody app/programs window wont close!!
And not even hitting the k/b win logo > Today will work either.
Not even magic button works - only a soft reset will do it . then you are waiting till you either use the phone or venture stupidly into MyPrograms
Bloody infuriating..
anyone have a solution?
cheers guys,
LR
The phone app works best if you mark it as "Keep Alive" and "Don't show when inactive" in Magic Button. I've seen the "Programs" issue you mentioned, but selecting "Today" always gets rid of it for me.
Cheers,
Steve.
thx I will give the M. Button options a whirl!
Did you guys found a solution on the small blank square spot on the upper right hand corner of the screen where the OK button lies when using Magic Button?
Sorry - not sure what problem you are refering to...
Cheers,
Steve.
No problem with Magic Button...
For killing phone app, I found 2 utilities working...
First Xbar3...let you show the phone app and a trick to kill it.
Second one...http://www.vijay555.com/index.php?Releases:VJPhoneToggle works on 2003se and 2005 Qtek 9000.
Curious. Why would you want to close the Phone app?
Isn't it the whole point of the device?
If you use your pocketphone more as a pda than a phone, the phone app takes somme Mb of memory... Really closing it after a call give you the possibility to take some precious Mbytes back for running programs...
VJOkButt also has a specific option, -phclose, to close the phone after each use - very useful when assigned to the red hangup key with AEButtonPlus.
Note, closing the phone doesn't stop the phone ringing, so does save you some memory without sacrificing the phone's functionality, but it does cause a minor incompatibility - trying to dial from Contacts may crash out.
However, in day to day use I don't recommend closing the phone unless you're really tight on mem.

Actually, it is not a problem but an aesthetic concern on my part. I am not using any skin program. The last time I tried Magic Button, if I am at the today screen with no open application, the location on the upper right hand corner where the "OK" button is shows a blank square. I was just wondering if I am the only one who had this oddity.
I have no skinning soft and I don't have a blank square... The color of that part of the taskbar, when nothing written, is the same than the rest of the bar. But I read stuffs like yours on other forums...

I just tried Magic Button again, and no blank square. HOOOORRRRRAYYYY! I wonder what made that skin problem in the first place...

I can't seem to find this option in Magic Button. Can you please direct me on how?
Hi again,
I've noted that on the right top of the screen in WM6, the Volume and half of the mobile range has disappeared, just like there's something over it...
Any Idea on what could it be?
Thanks!
It might help, but the time doesn't show off on te top of the screen, even if I have it checked.
Nobody can help me
Perhaps some stupid software that has been installed. Try a soft-reset.

It doesn't work. I've made soft and hard resets.
Maybe I'm uninstalling every program installed and install everything again...

Re-flash your WM6.

What's that?

I get the same with a funny task manager (don't remember the name)... in WM5
you can disable x-button and see if this thing is still there
Not sure about the X button.
Looks like that is active as you can see something in the corner.
If I look at my device (left to right) I have G; signal, speaker, time, X.
He has G; Signal, [Blank] X.
So something is overwriting speaker / time.
Are you running Batterybar as I know that they use that place.
It looks like an app that is just not displaying as it should..
Do you remember what you have installed and what used to use that space?

Now I remember that there was a small white battery level indicator that's not there anymore.
Is there any way to recover it or delete it?
Thanks!!!
The best thing for you is to reflash WM6-Helmi_c, and dont forget the NO/YES/YES game at the start.
And follow these step by step:

Thank you guys. It seems like it's working now.
Now it does make a real Hard-reset.
Thank you very much.
I found out what happened. It's every time I start ScummVM.
I've made a backup of what I had, so now I'm not worried anymore.
Im playing around with my newly rooted hero all day long but i feel im missing a bit of the techie geeky part of the equation..
I learned that by holding down home and power button during start takes the phone to the recovery screen (if you have a rooted phone) and the back + powerbutton returns fastboot screen.
I dont want to f##k anything up by messing about with it without any prior knowledge, so i ask you guys.. are there any cool functions, easter eggs or similar that arent well known (like in the first 10 pages on this forum)?
for instance, a verbose boot would be awesome, especially if it was a button combo to activate..
are there any more boot combos other than the above mentioned ones?
Holding down home will show a pop up of running programs; useful to switch between programs.
When the screen is off, double press the menu button and this will bypass the lock screen.

that's not quite right. the programs shown are the most recent started programs, not necessary running programs (and of course mor programs are running in the background...). but it's really a handy feature.
i once managed to get to the android home screen that you get on phones like the Magic but i cant remember how i did it

You get that by manually deleting Rosie.apk from the system/app folder.
Or by deleting its cache.
Then when you hit Home it will ask for you to choose the HTC or Android Home. As long as you don't select the use as default option, it will continue to do this.

You can just press menu from the lockscreen, no matter what button you pressed to wake the phone.
In the new ROM there's no camera zoom function on the screen by default. It can be accessed by the menu...
But who wants to do that?
Just swipe your finger up the screen the zoom slider appears, then swipe where you like to adjust the zoom level.
(from the Modaco forums)
Eh ? What zoom function ?
Explain please

One additional thing I found: Holding down the power button for 1-2 seconds will get you a menu where you can choose between powering off the phone, silent mode, vibration mode, airplane mode and internet connection.
Holding down the 'back' button in the browser will get you to your recently visited pages aka history.

How else do you turn off the phone? I assumed everybody has to do this anyway.
With the new rom, you can touch the screen to focus that specific area. Okay everyone knows this. But do you know you don't have to click the trackball to take picture? Just tap and hold at the screen, it will focus on that area and then take picture.

LOL like that one, useless point he made there!
Today I was holding my phone when i was at work and i dont know what i preseed and a menu apeared. I couldnt even look at it real good couse my boss was comming towards me. it was like a service menu.
i klicked on accelerometed button (there was more buttons, accelerometer is the 2nd button i think) and then there was choosen 270 degrese option witch means left sided landscape and there was XYZ coordinates wich changed when i was moveing the phone and some other options.
i couldnt looked up the whole menu couse my boss was there and was asking me something just a second afther that. It must be a testing menue or something.
I remember i was pressing the front buttons but cant recall the combination and i think it was the end call and the OK buttons that i was pressing.
But there is a menu and i want to get to it again. does anyone know this combination od buttons. the menue is only in black and white, no icons no colors...
><>><><
I don't know the combinaison but the soft is ServiceMenu, you can found it on the windows directory

This doesn´t work? Where can I type this combination? In dialer??
Is this true???
abouth the ><>><>< ofcorse it isnt true that was the combination on the t610 and k 700 k750 phones. on the windows mobiole this isnt the combination.
abouth the service menue yes it is true i just need to figure out the combination.
maybe its supposed to be hidden and with help from some bug it popped up I dont know. But it is there.
I saw some forums when i was searcinh the web to fond this menu that some folks have reporting thair phones have secret menues just for fun (scams, hoaxes) but i have seen it. Im so interested in looking on it and go trough the whole menu.
Ill search further.
Sorry abouth bad english.
Hey, guys, has anyone read what wrote toffeur? You don't need the combination, just look into the /Windows directory and find... who would guess that, ServiceMenu.exe.

Nice, it works. And you can disable accelerometer, which I find is useless and drains battery thanks heaaps =)
UPDATE: Can also edit ILLUMINATION Settings!
UPDATE 2: NVM, it doesnt save the settings.. =(
yes, the combination works, right is end key, left is call key
Works haha!
It does work! who could figure out that start call and end call buttons to be left and right. Nice work it only took us 2 days to figure out what I pressed. Ty. Could anyone with X1 try if this works on his phone to?

This is handy to check if your screen is actually calibrated properly.

Hi!
I was stupid enogh to install this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6594359#post6594359 since it read "Manilla 2.5", not noticing it was for Touch Pro2.. Now my Hardkeys have died and I have to restart my phone (battery in and out) each time the screen shuts down.
Anyone got a resolution to this? /: Been searching with no luck for some time now ):
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
I got a response from the authour of the app. that uses this and it reads:
"Goto to Start/Settings/System and you will find there the Keyboard Config.
- Open it and you should see ther the Home key created.
- Press and hold on the top of the "Home [10"] and a small menu should popup.
- Hit remove and than update config.
- You should also remove the dotcompt TP2 Start Menu Hardware key remap.cab.
- Soft reset"
I got no key-values in the list.. and I cannot add new keys (the app says I should press a key and release it to set it, but nothing happens, no reaction)
Is there something similar designed for the HD2?
Hi guy, wich key doesn't works?
You have uninstal the cab for remaping? You try AE Button?

None of the 4 hardkeys work.. AE-button? I cannot uninstall the cab, because it is not in the installed apps list (though it is in system settings.....)
Same problem
I'm having the same problem. None of my hard keys are working at all. Touch screen controls are fine. Tried going in through "System", then Keyboard Controller, but it says wrong drivers are installed :/
Bad mistake to use soft from TP2 topic
AE Button is a tools to remap Key, but it works only for WIndows and Green Button

Windows and Green Button? It is windows mobile, and to bring up an app. for a PC? (guess you mean windows for PC since you specified that it only works for windows)

Oh, the volume buttons are also dead.
Well, I guess I'll have to wait a couple of weeks and just live with it until I'm ready for a hard-reset of my device.. a couple of days worth of work modding it back to what it was earlier today ><

I fixed this issue. Go into your REMOVE PROGRAMS screen and delete the application that has KEYBOARD Controller, or something similar to it. I noticed it on my list of applications and did not recall it being there before. I removed it, then performed a soft reset and all was back to normal afterwards.

Cool.. can't confirm this myself but if it works it sure could be helpful to others.
(I did a Hard-reset as I had an opportunity)
