beginner here looking to do some simple things

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and came here looking for a fix to rotate my WMP screen. I sometimes wonder if I should have ever upgraded to WM6. I haven't uploaded a registry editor or anything in fear of totaly destroying my phone. I know there are alot of little things that can be changed through the editor like reassigning keys and whatnot. I was just looking for a place to begin and maybe someone patient enough to help me through things. Thanks for reading.

You can try the last post here. I am not sure whether it works or not.

Don't I need to set up the registry editor to use that solution?

Yes......even if someone here wrote you a .reg file that you could just open from the phone to add the registry entry for you, you still need a registry program installed on the phone. Are you not wanting to have the program on your phone, not wanting to make the registry change yourself, or not willing to change the registry at all?

Suspend, Alt-Tab and Softreset cabs

Anyone have these cabs? Or programs?
1) Suspend/PowerOff button
2) Alt-Tab so i can link it to a hard button
3) Softreset which i have that i am uploading here but doesn't have a Icon. Its just a plain program. If you have one with a nice icon, please upload here?

Isn't this the wrong forum to post such a request? Oh well, a really quick search for Alt-Tab found http://www.google.com/search?as_q=A...rum.xda-developers.com&as_rights=&safe=images. 2nd listing has your file.
You can find the next one the same way
Hint - look at my sig.
Cheers

Thanx Dr.Puttingham,
I actually found that cab the same time you posted it here. But i am trying to find the suspend and softreset the same way. But i always get some other threads that doesn't provide the cab. Rather they talk about other things.
Do you have the Suspend and Softreset programs?

maybe you would like me to come over and spoon feed you to? what does this have to do with WM6 in my eyes not a damn thing... Boy you just opened the perfect what not to post thread!! I'm not feeling to normal at the moment or I would flame you till my finger hurt. Dr is right SEARCH and if you don't find maybe it doesn't exist... Make it yourself this is a devoloper forum remember not a cab dipository...

I can't remember where I saw it but what you are looking for is in here somewhere. Of course "suspend" and "softreset" will only return about a billion search results. Maybe someone will see your post and can help out more. Most of the folks here are helpful.

Hmm, um, a CAB for an app to soft reset your device? Isn't easier to use the stylus? Maybe I'm nuts?

Thanx.
I've found it. The Alt-tab and the suspend and the softreset. The Suspend and softreset are from this program.. pcshutxp or something like that.

One I've used for a while is PHM's freewares:
http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/
Can't remember if it's the Powertoys or Keys that gives you what you're after, I always tend to have both installed as they're pretty small (and free)!

here's the alt-tab program from SPB

could that be some sort of laser burning tech for this matter???

Here you are. I am successfully typing italian.
Please next time use search function "hardware keyboard national characters"

Thanks for this. I needed this tip as well.
Please go easy on the beginners.
It is impossible to find something with keyword search unless you happen to know the exact right keywords (and not some synonyms). I know -- I'm an expert in not finding stuff

you're very welcome

Guys what about software keyborad< original Touch? can we change registry for russian? or insall some cab... I thinnk I tried cab from Dimond 2...but it didn't work

I've changed the sym.0816.txt file and replaced it in \windows!
but somehow I can't type the characters with Fn+Sym key? Am I combining the keys of the keyboard wrong??
I've done it before with Touch Pro with success! It had a physical Sym Key on the HW keyboard and TP2 has a FN+Sym... perhaps that's the problem?!?
thanks

make the contact names appear as u you type in txt msg

Hi, is there a way to make the contact names appear as u you type?
For example, in the "TO:" part of the txt message, if I type, "St"
it will shows, Steve White, Steve Smith and Steve Lew, in a drop down menu.
I seen this feature on other roms, and I looked in the wiki and googled.
I don't know how to enable it.
thanks

Don't think possible as imagine will be due to build.

Shame to hear that
It would be a great thing to have

so it's based on build? not some registry edit? or app?
thanks

yeah, its based on settings in the core of the ROM. You could ask some chefs around who would know more on the topic than myself, but I think Ookba mentioned this once (as far as his 2.5 ROM Goes ...) I am not sure if he released a "fix" cab for it...

6.1 "Kavana/Ricky" does not, 6.1 Rose dose, 6.5 dose....

k..thanks..i have kavana 6.1

yea, im using the ricky, and it doesn't have it. but when i tired the NRG one, they had it, but NRG was too unstable for me.

u can enable it in 6.1/6.5 roms, its a reg edit. (if the writing system is et9 ime, if compime it is usually out of the box working).
Registry is in the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete
(note that it is Autocomplete but the board adds space sometimes)
value
MaxSuggestions it is a DWORD, either its 0 or not available, create it, and put how many suggestions u want, good or default one is 4.
also make sure that this subkey is there with the CLSIDs
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete\SuggestionGenerators

What ROM you using? As tryed the above without sucess, can you export your REG and attach if working on 6/6.1
Even tryed with export from EVO.

Dash with EVO, the ver before ookba released few days ago, was 0 make it 4 it works, also palm treo 500, running 6.1 rose, make it 4 and it works. SP3 with 6.1 also works, this one is one of the oldest 6.1s way before rose.
the 6.1s and EVO(6.5) have diffrent CLSIDs entries so not backwards compatible as theres contacts grouping. the generators point at msnewmnu.dll. (u need to make sure his dll is not from a very old build or from 6.0).
This doesnt work with 6.0, only 6.1/6.5.
I attached the reg from my palm, its the same entries as the 6.1 sp3.
Edit: I just Flashed Kavana 6.1(080408_WWE), and also it worked. This rom already had the key RecipientAutocomplete, but was missing MaxSuggestions, just create the dword value and it works. its the same CLSID as both 6.1 and rose.

it works!
Thank you all for your help!
