Keylock always enabled - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

1) I want the keylock to stay always on - even after a hardreset.
Normally Windows sets is to default = no keylock.
When cooking with the ROM Kittchen there is a option do enable this.
Does anybody know which registry-key to change ???
2) Further I like the keylock to stay on when the device wakes up because of a alert. Is there a option to see & hear the alert but with keylock on ???

Automatic Device/Key Lock

Hi all,
Does anyone know of a way to get the Device Lock feature (appears as a padlock on the Today screen) to active automatically after a preset length of time.
I have WM5 on my ex-SPV/M700 and the feature is very handy for preventing false button presses whilst device in pocket etc but annoyingly can only be invoked manually.
Thanks in adavnce for any help/info,
LL
Do you mean:
Start > Settings > Lock > then tick Prompt if device unused for: choose time lenght
?
Edit: Just checked and that's not what you mean!!! However this would give you the same reset apart from having to enter a PIN number, also making it more secure.
I have exactly the same phone as you. Turn off the standard today plugin from Orange and use the default PocketPC screen and the lock will be visible. I have no idea why Orange forgot to add the Padlock feature as it is standard thing on most phones. If anyone can make this lock larges it would be helpful!
Crankshaft:-
I dont want to be messing about with passwords every time I switch the device on.
Nighthawk:-
As I was alluding to in my first post, I have an ex-SPV/M700!
So, as with you device, I'm with the HTC Homeplug also and have enabled Device Lock to appear on my Today screen already.
My bug-bear is that I want it to activate automatically after a preset time, rather than having to do it manually. Many mobile phones have this kind of functionality, but I've not found a way to do that yet on this XDA...

What about to set an idle delay in the battery/alimentation parameter and check “lock all key” in the key lock parameter...

Anyone able to get the connect beep to stay off?

I saw a registry edit for the beep whenever you hit the green talk button to turn it off and I remember doing it but for some reason when I reset the phone it doesn't stay...does anyone happen to know of a way to get it to go off?

The trick will be to find something in HKLM rather than HKCU. Typically, settings in HKLM stay through resets/profile changes/etc while HKCU is only based on that current session (it's Windows after all).
However, I just did a test (including a reboot) and will confirm that if you change the values in HKCU and you DO NOT change your profile (from normal to vibrate, silent, etc and then back), you can keep the beep off.
Here are the values that you will need to change to (open your favorite registry editor):
- HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\CallStart > InitVol (0)
- HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\InCall2 > InitVol (0)
With those two changes, your "beep" should go away as long as you do not change your profile. I have no, however, figured out a way to keep the beep across multiple profiles (then again, I haven't experimented enough).
i saw a cab posted some where to remove the beep but i forgot where i saw it
drop the attached callstart.wav into the windows directory of your device and allow it to replace the original. the only way ive ever been able to turn that most annoying beep off is to replace the original file with this blank .wav file. enjoy your nag free calling!

Wishlist for our fantastic chefs!

Shall start one since no one has started one.
Base on 1.93 WWE's ROM, I would like to wish for the enhancement or highlight some bugs..
1) Activesync/Mass Storage mode popping up when using carcharger/Desktop charger.
2) Audio booster's Bassless issue in 1.37 is fixed. However a new bug is that Audio booster has to be access once everytime to activate it (even if it is enabled, it would still be not in effect)
3) During a incoming call, the keypad would flash immediately but there would be a delay of 2 ringers before ringtone starts to play.
4) Calender access from TF3D home screen always reflect day event even if options are been set to month.
5) Missing animation of the flipping clock when reaccessing the home screen.
6) GPRS/HSDPA does not auto disconnect (Enabled on Advance Config) if MSN was accessed.
Enhancements
1) Choice of Beta Colourful theme or Old TF3d Theme
2) Possible to enable SRS WOW as now there is a unable to increase volume bug

HTC German Rom v2.03 & Advanced Config 3.3?

Hello everybody! I experienced the following phenomenon with official German Rom v2.03 and Advanced Config 3.3:
- phone sleep and fast phone sleep during call can be disabled in advanced config tool but it changes nothing. Phone always falls asleep during call.
- “face down mute ring" option does not have any effect. It rings forever, even face down. Which sucks since that was a cool feature.
Can anybody confirm that misbehavior with any other HTC Rom v2.03? Is there a way to correct these problems? Any other known bugs with that combo?
Thanks in advance!
to disable the (fast) phone sleep functions i have also to disable the light sensor. use diamond tweak for this.

Thank you for your assistance, but that did not work at all. After altering the desired settings with "Diamond Tweak" the “face down mute ring" did work exactly one time, when the second call came in it was gone again. Also it did not work after rebooting the phone. A very nasty side effect was that "Diamond Tweak" did override my selected ring tone volume and the phone screamed with nearly 120 decibel shocking all bystanders. Even after turning down the ring tone volume manually "Diamond Tweak" set it back to highest possible loudness, almost damaging the phone speaker. There was no way to remove that effect until "Diamond Tweak" was uninstalled. So, bad luck for me it seems...

Console Apps for Silent, Vibrate & Normal Profiles. Profile Switch utility.

Could not find this kind of simple app on xda so I wrote 3 quick apps. No screens or user interaction just execute them to set sound profile to Silent, Vibrate or Normal. SHould work with WM6.1 and up with or without Touchflo. You do need CF3.5
3/12/2010: Added PFSwitch utitlity which has the follwing switches:
Run with no switch:
Read current phone setting and move to the next profile. This toggles between Normal, Vibrate & Silent.
Run with 1 switch:
onoroff = toggle between on and silent only
onorvibe = toggle between on and vibrate only
normal = go to normal mode
vibe = go to vibrate mode
silent = go to silent mode
Run with 3 switches:
normal x y = go to normal and set system volume to x and ring volume to y (note x & y can be 0,20,40,60,80,100)
Run with 5 switches:
normal x y run runparms = same as 3 switches but when exiting run program 'run' and send params 'runparams'
Some examples:
PFSwitch silent = set phone to silent profile
PFSwitch normal 60 100 = set phone to normal sound with system sound at 60% and ring volume at 100%
PFSwitch normal 100 100 "\windows\iexplore.exe" "www.xda-develpoers.com" = set sound to normal both system and ring at 100% and when done launch internet explorer to go to xda website
PFSwitch silent 0 0 "\Windows\ctlpnl.exe" "cplmain.cpl,11,0" = set phone to silent and when exiting run Control Panel and open to tab 11 ident 0 (Menu Items I think)
Note: to run a program you must have the complete path since win mo does not allow relative paths.
PFSwitch V2.0
Added 9 new switches which are optional.
Switch 6 = ACTimeout
Switch 7 = ACTimeoutUnchecked
Switch 8 = BatteryTimeout
Switch 9 = BatteryTimeoutUnchecked
Switch 10 = Brightness
Switch 11 = ACSuspendTimeout
Switch 12 = BattSuspendTimeout
Switch 13 = ACSuspendTimeoutSave
Switch 14 = BattSuspendTimeoutSave
Example:
PFSwitch "" "" "" "" "" "" "" 30 0 3 "" "" "" "" would set backlight timeout on and at 30 seconds and brightness to 3
thanks
Thanks for this ebernazz2.
Been looking for ages for something just like this.
niccccccceee...
These sort of apps are always usefull. I just wish there was an app like this to toggle between USB and ActiveSync...
You placed 3 copies of the same file in each cab Instead you should have just placed the exe in a folder inside %CE1% ("Program Files" folder according with OS language) and the shortcut in %CE11% ("Start Menu/Programs" files folder according with OS language)
Would you be willing to make a version that toggles normal->vibe->mute each time the app is launched and with command line support (so we can create shortcuts with the command to select which profile to set)?
Sure I will make a single app that goes from normal to vibrate to silent if no command line argument is passed and if an argument is passed then it will go to that one.
Eric
Here you go. I don't have my phone with me to test this so please let me know if it does not work.
PFSwitch will toggle between normal, vibe and silent if run without any command line input. If you prefer to have a command line input to get to a specific profile then simply run it with one of the following switches:
normal
vibe
silent
Eric
Thank you! Already tested in my device and both toggle and command functions are working
I don;t understand what you mean by an app from USB to activesync. I don;t ever connect my phone to my PC so is tat what you are asking for?
Eric
Recent phones (like the Samsung Omina) have the ability to either connect to a PC by means of ActiveSync (RNDIS) or real USB connection (Mass Storage mode for memory cards or internal storage).
The advantage of the Mass Storage mode is that it's much faster and can be used in a Win PC without ActiveSync or other OSes.
I currently have a link in my today screen to a dirty MortScript I wrote (but most likely it's written in a device specific way and only works in the Omnia):
Code:
usb = RegRead ( "HKLM", "Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers", "DefaultClientDriver" )
If ( usb eq "RNDIS" )
Run ( "\Windows\USBSetting.exe" )
Sleep ( 200 )
SendSpecial ( "Down" )
Sleep ( 50 )
SendSpecial ( "CR" )
Sleep ( 50 )
SendOK
ElseIf ( usb eq "Mass_Storage_Class" )
Run ( "\Windows\USBSetting.exe" )
Sleep ( 200 )
SendSpecial ( "Up" )
Sleep ( 50 )
SendSpecial ( "CR" )
Sleep ( 50 )
SendOK
EndIf
See my PM ans see if that helps. If not let me know.
Eric
I get you now. Let me see if it is just a registry update or do I have to call a function in core.dll.
Eric
I think that just changing the registry won't work (or at least I wasn't able to do a MortScript to do so... though I'm really not a coder).

You are correct. The problem comes from the necessary events that winmo needs. In essence the app you used is loading the appropriate drivers that are specific to the hardware manufacturer. That needs to happen through ActivateDeviceEX function which is why simple setting of the registry won't help (it actually will assign the a new number in the registry HKLM\Drivers\active). I see no easy way around that coupled with the problem that the driver is manufacturer dependent.
Eric
Sounds like a big hassle for such an apparently small function...
I really hate how so much stuff in WinMo is device specific though it just seems like a side effect to the fact that Microsoft leaves all these things up to the device manufacturers... Maybe this will change in WinMo7 (not that it'll be available for my device anyway...). I really wish that the mobile OSes were in many aspects more like the PC OSes (like the fact you can install the OS if your device has the specs to run it rather than your manufacturer choosing if you are "allowed" to update it).

Hi, I am using action screen to build a phone profile switcher: night, gps, car, outdoor, home, internet, mute...The code controls succesfully the system volume but I do not seem to update with success the ringer volume. Would it be possible to add a functionality to your app to define mode (mute, silent, normal) and at the sametime setup the volume for both ringer and system? Or could you help me understand if it is something that can be controlled writing to the registry? it is device specific? the scripts I found so far do not work in my polaris
Not sure what you mean.... I have an app that rotates from silent to vibrate to ring or you can set a switch to go directly to a profile. If you want to control sound or profile I can give you code but it would be Visual Studio code. What is Action Screen? IF you are asking if the system and ringer volume require 2 methods to set the answer is yes. You have to set both if you want both to change. Do you want to see the difference between setting the system sound vs ringer sound?
Eric
OK, actionscreen is an old htc program used to launch new sms, new mms and so on. It is just a popup menu (fullscreen) that gets away if not used after a couple of seconds. It is simply an app that has shortcuts written to the registry and launches them.
In my case I have not been able to start using visual studio, so I usually work with mortscript to launch scripts. In combination with any popupmenu like actionscreen I launch mosrtscript files that change the profile: eg my car profile will set bt discoverable, wifi off, full brightness, etc. my night profile with mute the system sound but keep the ringer volume in case someone calls for something important. My internet profile will open wifi, disable bt, etc. Using mortscipt I am able to change the icon so when I choose a profile the wifi icon gets red if activated and the profile icon gets the image of the active profile.
So basically I want an exe or mortscript file that can do two things at the same time: switch or set the mode (mute, silent, vibrate) and define the volume for the ringer and for the system. I do not know if it is more clear what I am looking for ?¿!!'¡'¿?!
thanks
I get you now.
I could write a .net app that takes 3 parameters. Lets say I call it SetSound2.
You would then use SetSound2 x y z where x would be mute, vibe or normal - and y would be the system volume level (20,40,60,80,100 percent) - and z would be the ringer volume (same numbers as y).
Would that help you?

That's just how I imagined it !!! Would you do that ??
Thanks Eric
Sure. I will write that tonight after work and post it for you as long as you test it out and let me know if is doing what you desire.
