HD2 google search in German - 02 UK - HD2 General

hello
I have an HD2. When I search using the browser magnified glass the results I get are from Google Germany!!
Do i have have the wrong mobile web settings or something? (standard ones installed from 1.66 software)
Anyone else have this issue?
Cheers

yes, you aren't alone there, there are a few threads about it, but it looks as if it is coded into the net tab,theres certainly no registry tweak to fix it (well not found one in a number of weeks looking and theres no threads that come to a satisfactory ending I could find)
(thing is, I changed rom and n now I get google.com, so its no longer s problemhehe)
best work around seems to be to have a link to search page of choice as a quick link.

sometimes i get english sometimes get german im also on uk o2 , mostly get german when ever i try to show someone its always english lol

i think the ip range used sometimes come back as german so you get redirected to the german version of google

Yea, and o2 is a german company, tho i think i read of someone on t mob also resolving their ip to germany.
Strange that since I moved to a cooked rom i now always get google.com (though i still cant stop it going for mobile google, which i hate)

The searchURL in the manila tab is coded into the file 62ece951.manila.
Here we find:

Save Battery Using These Regisrty Hacks

I Used These Hacks Wen I Had My Dash Im Using It ON THe Shadow And I Have Great Results ps I Take No Responsibility For Any damage And I Did Not Make These I Found Them
1. HKLM\Comm\AsyncMac1\Parms\DisablePowerManagement
Change Dword value from 1 (default) to 0
2. HKLMComm\Irsir1\Parms\DisablePowerManagement

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Cl ass\SDMemory_Class]
"DisablePowerManagement" = dword : 00000000
Sir Charles!!
I applied these yesterday and I believ you have something....but I wonder if it's catchy. LOL
I left my connections on all night (BT/wifi), talked for 90 minutes to my friends and family, listened to music on pocket player for an hour and a half and now, 24 hours later I still have 50% battery.
I usually don't activate my connections until I use them and typically don't call too many people on this phone (I have a sucky corporate phone), but it seems all this added activity has not had anywhere near the impact I normally would expect.
I'll spread the word and see if more folks won't give this a try on their Shadows.
Meanwhile....Thanks!!

Well I have installed already and testing, post results later
Thanks,
I downloaded the .cab and attempted to install. The install was unsuccessful- anyone know why that might be? Could my registry be locked? I am using WM6.1_V1b_by_Erofich.
So, no feedback yet ?
What kind of feedback are you looking for? I use it, I recommend it. This should be the first thing you install on your shadow.
Hmm ok, so does it work for diamond ?
Um, no... that's why it's posted in the Shadow/Juno forum and not the Diamond forum.
Actually, all of the registry keys are present in both the touchscreen and non-touchscreen editions of WM 6.1.
So the CAB installer may not work, but the actual registry fix should.
I am trying this on my Wizard and will edit later to post how it works out.
#edit to add#
Works great on both my Wizard and my Juno.
I think that these should work for any WM 6.x build.
Ok thank's, i will try these settings !

I'm feeling bored, so i'll go in to what these keys do.
Basically all of these are power management keys, which allows the phone to turn devices/connections off when not in use.
If you want, you can take my word for it, otherwise you can use the links.
AsyncMac is The NDISWAN implementation in Windows Embedded CE
IrSIR = Infrared Serial Driver
PPTP and L2TP are VPN protocols.

Irritating Pop Up Keyboard

I saw a cab somewhere in the Diamond thread which stopped the keyboard popping up whenever one opens an email , a text message, or something that might remotely require text input. I have spent the last couple of hours searching for it but to no avail. anybody know how to turn this facility off please?

nullkb is the program you are looking for
Here is a link: http://personales.ya.com/beemer/nullkeyboard.htm
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=dword:00000001
This is the regkey you've probably been looking for. Use it myself on my Diamond and works like a charm.
Excellent find - after a soft reset this works on the Kaiser too, much better than faffing around with nullkb and PQz et al.
I didn't manage to make it work on my Kaiser. Could you please explain me how to?
Thank you.

Yes! That works perfectly! Thanks a bunch.
For all you guys who can't find it (it didn't exist on my Tilt):
In HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip, you need to to create a new Value. Name it, "TurnOffAutoDeploy" (without the quotes), make it a DWord, and set the value to 00000001, like MRE-net said. Save it, soft reset, and it works like a charm.
Great find mate. Thanks again.
Ok guys; I must be stupid!
I've just tried it (again) and it still doesn't work!!!
When I create the new DWORD value, Task Manager asks me if I want it Hexadecimal or Decimal... I tried both but no one fits.
So, please, could you explain it again )
Thanks a lot!
Abundance of options
Gentlemen
many thanks, problem solved.

Make sure it is Decimal and just fill in 1 and not 0000001. 1 = on 0=off
Also make sure the new key you've created is a DWord and not a StingValue.
Alternatively you can copy the attached DisableKeyboardPopUp.txt file to your device import it into your registry. Make sure you rename the file to DisableKeyboardPopUp.reg
Thanks MRE-net! I have been looking for this as well.

Backlight problem with iGO8

Hello,
I've got a litte problem with every version of iGO8 on my Touch Pro 2.
The backlight is never on the maximum level.
I always use my phone with maximum backlight but when iGO8 run the backlight is only at 50% even if I set the slider in the options menu to the maximum. It's like iGO8 can't use the maximum backlight of the phone.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks a lot!
My experience is that backlight cannot be done by iGO8. I don't use this setting in the program, but am using Phone weaver to do this for me (volume, backlight, power - all changed when on AC power and no ActiveSync (=in car holder))
Use iGoLuncher to run the app. it solves the problem.

I'm sorry but I don't unsderstand what you mean by "Use iGoLuncher"
I made a new device in the data.zip; copied the file 'HTC Touch Pro T7272.ini' in config/devices and named it HTC Touch Pro 2.ini.
Now changed the line of maximum backlight to this:
backlight_max = 15
so the complete file is this:
Code:
info_names="HTC Touch Pro 2"
;Copied from HTC Touch Pro T7272
[gps]
port=4
baud=57600
[device]
SDCard_dsk_num=7
[rawdisplay]
highres=0
autoconfig=1
driver="gx"
screen_x=800
screen_y=480
[power]
backlight_manage_values=1
backlight_max = 15
backlight_min = 0
backlight_reverse = 0
backlight_key_bright_BA1 ="Brightness"
backlight_key_bright_AC1 ="ACBrightness"
backlight_key_timeout_BA = "BatteryTimeout"
backlight_key_timeout_AC = "ACTimeout"
backlight_key_ontap_BA = "BacklightOnTap"
backlight_key_ontap_AC = "ACBacklightOnTap"
backlight_key_on_BA = "OnOff"
backlight_key_on_AC = "ExtOnOff"
backlight_methods = 1 , 25
backlight_events = 1, 5, 7
backlight_slow_api=1
Now insert into sys.txt:
Code:
[device]
type="HTC Touch Pro 2"
Hope this helps!
no problems on mine.. nevertheless, thanks a lot bright.light your name is simply perfect for a topic like this!

Everything works like a charm on iGO8 now^^
I have just added the line backlight_max = 15 on my sys.txt and it's ok. I don't have created an new device, I delete the device folder everytime I download iGO8 to keep iGO8 the lightest as possible.
By the way, what is the purpose of ;

That's maybe because it's not needed? I don't know what it does, so won't download, but some others will try it and come to the conclusion it's not needed.

Yes, you are right - this should do it. Everything in those config files is overruled by sys.txt (when it's in the sys.txt, that is)

There are many ways to do this, but I just use Resco Explorer because it's the easiest for me. When you click and hold on an item, you get a menu that allows you to select Send To - Start Menu as Shortcut.

I don't know about other versions, but iGo 8.3.4.102680 works just fine on my Touch Pro2. No problems on any ROM build that I've thrown at it.
Thanks,
Nate
8.0 works fine on my TP2...no sys jack isht needed
On the subject of versions, my sys.txt power section only has 3 lines:
powermgm_state=0
backlight_day=100
Backlight_night=65
How does any of that relate to "max"?
v8.3.4.102680

Enable Opera Haptic feedback on HD2?

On my Touch HD, when you clicked a link you got a reassuring 'buzz' to confirm selection as well as the link being highlighted. The 'buzz' does not happen on my new HD2.
How is this acheived on the HD2. I've had a look in Opera:Config but did not see any odvious entries to control this.
I've also seen a thread that talks about HKLM\Software\IOpera\Defaults\VibrateEnabled. I dont see this in my Registery.
Any thoughts on this one?
Try installing TouchResponse (must be free as I got it too) it will
buzz at everything

Try Opera instead of IOpera and VibrationEnabled instead of VibrateEnabled
Add it to the registry as Type Dword and value 1
Works for me.
Brilliant. This reg hack worked a treat.

Change Sense internet tab search engine

Is there any way to change the default search engine on the Internet tab from google to bing? Thanks.
yes there is
browse your registry to
HKCU/software/HTC/manila (thats HK current user, not local machine)
and if there isn't already an enry for 'internet.searchurl' then create one, as a string value, and in there goes your preffered search engine.
You must also include a '&q=%s' onto the address, otherwise it will not pass your query from the search tab.
Mine looks like this
http://google.co.uk/search?hl=en-GB&output=html&q=%s
which forces google.co.uk, with html output (instead of mobile).
Thanks for the info, now have to work out bing's url as it seems to differ from the one you posted.
Thanks SamSamuel, that's a great tip.
this should work
http://www.bing.com/search?q=%s
just for info, to find how to build your search string, i just went to bing, did a search on 'test' and got this....
h ttp://www.bing.com/search?q=test&go=&form=QBLH&filt=all
the h ttp://www.bing.com/search is the search url
the q=test is the query, replace test (or whatever you used) with %s which inserts the string from your search box
and i just ignored the &go=&form=QBLH&filt=all
The only difference between with and without the '&go=&form=QBLH&filt=all' is that there are no sponsored links down the right side.
How about US google with html output? What should the search string be?

heh, keeps bouncing me back to .co.uk so can't tell, but one would assume...
http://google.com/search?hl=en-US&output=html&q=%s (can probably leave out the hl=en-US&
try
http://google.com/search?output=html&q=%s
that great. i got rid of default search and am now on google.
i also want to get rid of the ugly default logo under the search box. i tried changing the size of the image to 0 height and 0 width but that seems to crash the whole tab. what can I do?
