I came accross registry keys which have softAP enable/disable keys. I searched 'softAP' wothout any results so hasitate, but new thread.
Does it work? Has anybody tried it? Can it be run on 11n mode? I want to enable it and try if it doesn't cause irrecoverable harm to the device,

I found the 2 keys with that value ("enable softAP"), and changed them both from "0" to "1", then soft-reset. I see no change in phone behavior on or off wifi, and no new options showing in settings or comm manager, so I don't know what they're supposed to do. No apparent issues in phone operation, etc.

Hello, i´m new in this forum. I'm not very good in english, but i will try it.
I'm developing an applicqation in XDAII that uses serial port.That application is automatically re-installed every time I do a hard-reset (i have modified config.txt in the extended rom).The problem is that every time i do a hard restet, the irda port is enabled in the configuration-conexions-transfer menu. So every time i do a hard reset i have to disable manually the irda transfer. Do somebody know how to disable the irda modifiyng a registry key? Once i know the registry key that do this, i can build a application that modify that key. Thank a lof for all.
Your question interested me as I have also done what you are describing, and what you are asking is a very good idea.
I did a little investigation into the registry but I don't have good news. I did a total dump of my XDAII registry with Beam Ticked and Un-Ticked. I then did a compare of the 2 results. It seems the setting is in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Obex and Key IsEnabled is set to 1 for On or 0 for Off.
However changing the registry value just changes the state of the tick and makes no differance to the serial port being locked. So it seems that the registry is just a store for the current setting of the tick.
If you do get a final answer to this please post on this forum thread as it would be useful for me as well.
If you set this registry value and then reboot/reset the device, is IR turned off, (and the serial port unlocked)? I'm wondering if during the boot process it reads this value and will turn off IRDA ??
Yes, it does then seem to work.
So it seems you have to set the IsEnabled key to 0, and then do a warm reset.
So I guess an exe could check the value in the registry key and if it was 1, it could set it to 0 and then do a warm reset. If the key was already 0 then nothing would need to be done.
IR Problem
Hi all,

Where is GPS control panel on Qtek 9100???? Funny, the help describes in detail where it should be, but it is not there
I tried this:
WM5 built in GPS control panel
For some reason this is not active in the settings of the JASJAR. To make it visible do the following:
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.

Soft-reset the qek 9100, but still can't find it in the Connections??
Help pls? :shock:
There is also a 'redirect' entry in that registry location.. remove that one, and it will apear in your settings menu
Hello

Thats why you are supposed to SET IT!
So once again....
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
1. Remove the REDIRECT
2. Add DWORD Hide and set Value to 0
3. Add DWORD Group and set Value to 2
4. Soft-Reset*
5. There ya go!
Its not that hard - just follow the directions and you will succeed!
*Be sure to do a correct Softreset! Either use a tool like Pocketplus to do a softreset or turn off the ppc by pushing the powerbutton very long untill you are asked if you really want to turn off the device.
That way the changes made to the registry are really saved to the ROM !

Does this mean I can force my GPS receiver to communicate with designated ports on my Vario?
And if so how do I get it working properly?

Get yourself the GPS Menu in the settings and you'll get total control over the used COM PORTs used by the navigation software and the navigation hardware.
i tried that hack today, but i have the problem that my wizard "resets" the reg entries i changed to the default (only redirect)
I'm using the 2.18 german qtek rom, any ideas? I think a cab file would help.

You have to wait a while before register changes would be in the ROM, dont soft-reset immediately, or you could just turn your device off with the power button (hold it for 5 secs.) and turn it on again.
But then again.....this hack doesn't work on the latest Rom's
The latest Roms don't have the GPS control panel in it, I also tried it but didn't work.
i waited some time, then soft resets and it works! thanks! (2.18 Rom)

Well, I've tried to play with different hardware/software port settings; neither MioMap nor Google Maps see whichever port I set. Anyone found a good combination?

This thread is over three years old, so you might not get many responses. To answer your question, I use Program port 0 and Hardware port 6 in External GPS. The latteer port must match the port you assigned in the bluetooth settings. Make sure you disable the check mark that sets up a secure connection. This is also found in the bluetooth settings.
I need programmatically change Profiles in phone (Normal, Silent...).
When I change Value ActiveProfile in Registry Key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Profiles" I need also update changes in phone.
Question: How can I do it? What system message I must send for updating profiles status?

Depends what you need to do, in general there is a Windows Meesage WM_SETTINGCHANGE that will notify the change (provided that you flush the registry), however to me it looks like you are "hacking" the registry instead of using a more appropiate method, I never changed a profile, but I done some similar things, did you try something like the API SystemParametersInfo?
For example I must change Profile from Normal to Silent and after changing at the same time must automatically turn off the phone sound and on desktop must show non-sound icon.
I have try a sending message WM_SETTINGCHANGE, but I have no effect, may be I not correctly used command SendMessage.
API SystemParametersInfo and other I didn't try. May be you have any expirience in this?
As far as possible, write please some example to solve my problem
Take a look here:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...rofile+registry&rnum=1&hl=en#b3a56f92d65fee2d
There are not good news, you either try to simulate a key stroke to change the profile or try to feed it or try to work out if DMProcessConfigXml function will make the trick by feeding the XML with the profile configuration.
It doesn't seem to be other workout, for the DMProcessConfigXml function is plenty of information and examples @ msdn.microsoft.com.
Hey!
I used this code and it helped me
HWND hWnd = FindWindow(_T("MSCprog"),NULL);
::SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_SETTINGCHANGE, 0, 0);
::SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_NOTIFY, 0, 0);
::SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_USER+0x3084,0xFFFFFFFF,2);
if (hWnd!=NULL)
{
::SendMessage(hWnd, WM_USER+0x3084,0xFFFFFFFF,2);
::SendMessage(hWnd, WM_USER+0x3084,0xFFFFFFFF,2);
::SendMessage(hWnd, WM_USER+0x3084,0xFFFFFFFF,2);
}
don't worry and be happy, as I am
On the HTC Touch pro 2 in the settings somewhere I tapped commit registry and it said registry flushed. Since I have nothing on my phone really just yet I feel like doing a hard reset after pressing that button.
What does it do? Should I hard reset or not? Is it safe?
Does it change anything in the phone? Does/ can it make the phone run slower (after time maybe, or better?)? Can it make the phone have problems and flaws along with bad performance and instability; can it make the phone not stable? Can it change a certain program or make it worse? How often is the registry to be flushed?
Hi Everyone:
A small clarification is needed. My device is defaulting to Moscow GMT+3 everytime I restart it. I want to know actually 3 things if possible:
1- What's the registry key that allows you to select the regional settings?
2- How can I know the table code of countries like Moscow is 0x00FFXXX, etc... for the various time zones.
3- I noticed sometimes that whatever registry keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> nls, they are changed everytime the system restarts. I was assuming that nls\overrides is doing that but I altered everyting and yet after restart new values appear in nls keys and even in overrides. Is there any other place in registry that writes values on top of nls upon restart?
appreciate the help,
Cheers
I have a similar problem where the backlight timeout setting (on battery power) resets to 10 seconds everytime I turn my MDA off. Really annoying.
I've tried changing the setting in the registry directly as well, but it still changes back.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott
It is strange that something keeps changing the reg settings.
I had the 10 second thing on my Jamin and it seem to have something to do with the screen lock plugin.
Never did solve it.
Locale settings are in HKLM\nls DefaultLCID (dword) and you can find all possible values here.
But the time zone is set in HKLM\Time\TimeZoneInformation and its a bit complicated (its a whole data structure and not just a value)
I think you need to check your startup programs (HKLM\init and windows\startup).

Thank you for your reply and for the great link. I am starting to feel that this problem is related to HTC Home. Appreciate if anyone can comment on this issue.
Requesting Moderators / Admin to move this post to the appropriate board
I've been playing with the new PDAMobiz ROM and discovered that in Settings->Phone there is an option to sync time with the cellular network.
Unfortunately this will also force your time zone in to what ever the network is set to which at least in my case is incorrect because the network operator did not want to bother with DLS settings.
Perhaps you have this setting on as well?
I installed PhonEx right after I got my HD2 but realized that I like the clean design of the WM phone. So, I uninstalled PhonEx and got my WM phone but realized that the touchscreen keys, e.g. Keypad, End Call, etc., are locked and are not functioning. The only way for me to end the call is by pressing the red end hardkey.
Does somebody know what can be the problem? Btw, I have S2U2 also installed.
This is a similar problem when the tap time is enabled in the BsBTweaks program. I don't know the exact reg key name, but you can download the BsBTweaks, enable the tap time, close, reboot, then disable it again. I think that will work or..
I think it's this registry key - HKLM\System\GWE\Touch\Filter - I have 0 for minimumtaptime. try to change it and see if it works.
