By any chance you installed spb tv?
HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\Brightness Change to 3
I had the same problem like this, because of the stupid SPB TV program. It sets the value to 0, which is out of range(1-10).
Just reset the registry value as 1-10 then the slider will come back.
alsalahi, even if you haven't used spb tv I would still start by checking that reg value, I've read about it getting changed by other things as well, and changing it to a value >= 1 always seems to clear it up just fine.
Problem Solved

Camera settings (to remove snow effect):
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/Camera/AppDefSettings/General
Set Contrast - 5, Brightness - 6, Saturation - 3, Hue - 5,Sharpness - 3
These settings will not reset themselves after closing the camera app or doing a soft reset! They become defaults.
Hope you find it useful!
kta,
That was great. It was minimized.
But i have not checked the output of the shot.
will it affect the output shot?
I tried this on my XDa2i but it doesnt work, the lowest value it allows me to enter is 0
To bad that won't work on the XDA II the camera needs a lot of help too. Does anyone know of a fix for the XDA II?
Emil, the output shot will be better as well!
Daredevil, the values are +ve, ie. 5, 3, etc. Maybe I should have used a ":" instead of a "-".
Great work!!!
thanks for the tip
I do not have these settings in the registry. Is this because I have not updated the ROM ?
Hi, where do I find this regedit?

You don't need to go into the registry...
fire up the camera application and click the settings button
click on the tools menu and choose adjust...
the settings are in the drop down box...
In this way you won't have to meddle with the registry...
amazing!
Hey kta, I tried it out, just wanna let you know the results are amazing!
I had given up on this camera (and just about the phone as a whole) especially when my friend checked with someone working with doopod said that this is a hardware (lens) problem so we can't really do anything about it. But you did it!
Just wanted to let you know I really appreciate the fix!
Fantastic! I applied it and it is much better
Thank you VERY much
amazing!

If you don't change them in the registry, the settings will reset themselves once you close (not minimise) the camera application or when you change the ambience from auto to night, etc.
The only permanent fix is to change them in the registry. Here's a link to a free registry editor: http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=31
PS: To all those that showed their appreciation: You're welcome
Maybe I missed something but I still do not find these attributes in the registry.........see my earlier post and screen shot.
kta, I agree that to get the change to stick its a registry change but in my registry I don't have these parameters. Is this because I have the older ExtROM ?
Grunt,
I'm not sure why you don't have these in your registry. I don't think it's the ROM version. I would try changing the settings in the camera settings and see if they get created. If that doesn't work I would try entering them manually as DWORD values base decimal (Brightness, Contrast, Hue, Saturation, Sharpness).
Why aren't you upgrading to 1.11 anyway?
for mini?
hi does this registry tweak work for mini also? if yes, Brightness - 5
is it refering to brightness = 5? sorry saw someone on the above mention post trying to go lower than 0...thanks
Just to clarify:

Hi all,
It's freezing in London, UK! Anyways...
I hate the o2 phone skin I am stuck with, I noticed once before after a hard reset there was a much nicer skin - im guessing it was the default WM5 skin...I know it was blue... Well - I want it back ..
So today's question from me..
How do I change my phone skin.. WITHOUT HARD RESET..
Ta
lol..its bloody freezin!..
here u go...speeded up my exec..and actually prefer the simple default skin anyway..use resco or any other registry editor
To set or remove the operator phone skin
The setting is at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'
The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be set to '1' to show the operator skin or '0' to show the default skin
wow that is so much faster! Thanks!
Although - I was talking about a completely different skin? Unusual!
Ahh well this one is just what I need - a phone.
Ta!

the most interesting about it actually is that it will give you 10 Megs of RAM...if you can live without the videocalling.

How exactly do you get that extra space?? Does it require a hard reset or can you delete the extra files? If the latter which are the correct files to delete?

were you able to get that .cab file to work
for dialing I figured out to disable smart dialing and you can dial without the contacts coming up and covering the keys
The CommManager is not added in this programm, maybe someone knew another programm for it.
cab works great and is what i was looking for sorry for being newbish. Thanks alot for the cab

are you looking in the correct place? i.e. HKCU
its there on Tmobile Ameo ROM, and seems to be a standard WM5 reg setting since i got the info from an old WM5 site explaining how to get pictures bigger in the background on WM5 devices.
if your provider has removed it, try adding it
Added HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\DPI as Dword value 96 in dec (0x60 in hex)
Nothing happens

Remember to do a soft-reset after every reg edit. Use a software, or turn off device for 10 seconds and turn on again, before doing the reset
In case someone hate this feature like me which turn on the x1 accidentally all the time. Kaiser's key is working here as well
Add this key to yr registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD]

keyboard wakeup
thanks for the tweak. was driving me nuts, especially since it was waking up every time I would take the phone out of a carrying case (which has small magnets for keeping cover closed) thinking that keyboard was open.

That's right!!! This tweak is one of the most important! I'm using it with my Kaiser from the very first day!
Tweak fails on Alltel Touch Pro
I have both a Sprint and Alltel Touch Pro. The SlideWakeup Dword works great on the Sprint TP but does nothing on the Alltel. The keyboard continues to wakeup the device even after putting in the key with a 0.
Any other ideas?
Works great. Thank you for this helpful tweak!

Yes. I found that the screen does not wakeup after adding the registry value.
But the keyboard light stil turn on when sliding the device, which makes the device very warm. This is wasting battery life. Any idea how to prevent the keyboard light from turning on?

i tried looking for that registry key, but was unable to find it. so i tried to create the key with the given value and it didn't work. i tried creating a DWORD in the KEYBD with the given value and that didn't work. i tried to create a string value with the given title and value and that didn't work. am i missing something? i'm running the stock ROM for the xv 6850.
I've tried creating the SlideWakeup dword with a decimal value 0 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD. The dword and value are there but have no effect on my X1 which continues to wakeup when you nudge the slide open a bit. I've done a soft reset as well to double check the registry value was being loaded. Still wakes up.
Anyone else seeing this?
I've just done it and it works! Thx!

i have a "fuze" (touch pro). it didnt work for me at first. i checked it quite a bit for spelling and everything and everything was right. i deleted it and readded it and now it works. nothing different but whatever. some people seem to have problems with this. just try readding it and maybe itll work for you too.

This is great for those of us who keep our phones in our pockets instead of a batman belt! It would partly open in my pocket, turn on, and then do whatever my thigh wants via the touch screen. I do have to say how impressed i am at how coordinated my leg is. There were calendar entries that almost make sense!
it works fine on my TP
thanks dude...
appreciated!
I tried this - no go
I tried the remove and re-add - no go
I'm a bit tired of watching that bootup sequence
What could the people that are trying this, unsuccessfully, be doing wrong ?
Was the dword value hex/dec ?
I've been doing regedits since NT 4.0, I'm resonable good at it.
In my case my thigh keeps turning on the 'data connection'
It ocasionally calls one of my friends for a chat.
And if I wanted to go in the opposite direction? The ROM im on is set to 0 but I want it to wake up on slide... should I change it to 1?
it works...
thanx for the tips..now i can easily play with the slide on my past time
and btw, try to restart ur device..it might help
The SlideWakeUp is active while playing music on my X1i.
i often use my X1 as a music player together with my HBH-DS980. i noticed that when i slide the keyboard while playing music, my phone wakes up (except for PocketPlayer.. X1 wakes up even if there is no song playing!)
is there a way to disable it?
i have tried it with Nitrogen, PocketPlayer and WMP.. and a Wired headset..

Ok I was using spbTV and all of a sudden the screen got darker and every since then i haven't been able to brighten it.
It's only a problem when im plugged in.
I try to goto brightness on the backlight settings but power supply brightness isn't there, i can only adjust battery brightness.
I've already soft reset, removed SpbTv and still have the issue.

Looks like this app is breaking our HD2s. SPB is a great company, I'm sure they will try and work out a fix if you let them know what happened.
Is this happening to anyone else using a different app?

I had the same thing happen to me. I had to do a factory reset. I could not find any way of bringing it back from that. I guess the guys at SPB didnt test it out on the HD2. They should be fixing it soon. I wondered if I was running spb mobile shell if it would have done the same!!?
i had the same problem i figured out how to fix it!
go to the registry
hkey current user
controlpanel
backlight
change acbrightness to 10
and
brightness to 10
save and exit
its fixed
now you have your sliders back
enjoy!
Thanks for that info radiohead7778580, it worked perfectly.
BIOYAM.
Thanks!!
I knew it was something in the registry but I'm far from an expert so I didnt want to go poking around in there. You saved me a reset. Thanks again
no problem glad i can help
All praise to you my friend! I had the same issue using SPB shell. Fixed perfectly! Thankss a million.
For those who do not want to mess with the Registry, I've added the Registry Settings into an easy to install CAB file. Just install to main memory and your Brightness sliders will be returned.
This sets your brightness to FULL (10) on both battery and AC power, so be sure to go in and adjust accordingly for your preferences.
