Hey,
Some of the wm2005 devices show a "loader screen" when you hardreset the device. One of my custom cabs I placed in the extrom, needs you to tap "accept" before it will isntall. The problem is that the "loader screen" is in the way, thus the install just hangs.
Ne ideas on how to get past this??
if it show the dialog and just not response to tabs
moving the focused the actionbutton to the button like "yes" or what even
and pressing the center of the actionbutton works like click
the only problem is: The screen that you should click "accept"
on doesn't show, it is behind the "loader" screen.
Aaargh! :x
In my rom there is a config.txt file that has commands that are run by the AutoRun.exe file.
the first line displays the splash screen:
SHOW:\Extended_ROM\Verizon_Logo2.bmp
the second line Disables the Touch Pad (TP)
EXEC:\Extended_ROM\TPDisable.exe
Then alot of cabs are loaded
The last two lines Enable the Touch Pad and do a soft reset.
EXEC:\Extended_ROM\TPEnable.exe
RST: Reset
If yours is simular, just modify it to not show the splash screen, and make sure the touch pad is enabled when you load your cab.
I have a apache from verizon.
Hope this helps.

Hi guys,
having had various WM5 handsets, I was a little upset to not be able to adjust the soft keys located at the bottom of the today screen. This has been possible on previous units just not the Orbit. The icon is found on the settings/ personal screen under the icon soft keys. I have done a hard reset and the icon still has not appeared. Can anyone suggest a registry entry to enable this function as the pre set options are not required????
I have seen 5 Orbits and all seem to be without it is this different on the artemis or T-mobile Compact III's?
Just to add I was wondering if I would ber able to dopy the icon from my previous device and see if it would work in my XDA Orbit?
Its the softkey applet you are after - place this cpl in the \windows directory soft reset and it should appear. (soft reset not strictly necessary)
Users beware - it is not easily reversible after install - you can delete the cpl but the settings remain the same and you will need to do a registry edit to get back tp previous state.

The Artemis has no Softkey applet, too.
Thanks at meschle
Thanks for that is any issues I should be aware of with using this applet, as in any problems etc?
Also how would I go about removing it from the registy should I indeed choose to do so (problems permitting)?

No issues in actually using it but after removal will have to restore orig reg keys

Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Contacts.lnk" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Contacts" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created
Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx.'
For some reason after removal of the applet the defaults dont return - so need editing
Thanks for that I'll give it a try later tonight after I backup the device just to be sure I can restore without any issues.
Also when you say wiki what do you mean have you a link?
Also will the applet allow me to use the softkey function as in previous handsets via softkey icon in personal tab of settings menu (am being blond has been along day)?

How have you tried to set it up? Which shortcut did you use?
I installed the file in the windows dir as advised.
I did a soft reset and attempted to use the New SMS & New MMS shortcuts.
When I try it comes up with the error message:
tnsms.exe
The file 'tnsms' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.
This also comes up for the file name 'tnmms' am not really sure what to do next, seems all other ones work that I have tried so far?

I dont seem to have those shortcuts - what device are you running?
If you can, attach copies of those lnk files in a zip.
I use wm5newmenu and it already has those shortcuts in its menu - i assigned the menu to left soft key.
I have the o2 XDA Orbit those shortcuts are a part of the messaging programme for starting new sms and mms. I will search the device and see if I can find the files and zip them up on here.
Correction I cannot find the files stated in the error message, so I am at a loss as to what to do next?
Bump
Anyone shed any light on this one? I can enable these shortcuts on my old MDA Compact yet with the applet on the Orbit it is having none of it.
Same here with my Orbit ... I wanted to use left soft key for new SMS, but it gives me an error: The file 'tnsms' cannot be opened. ...Any advice guys?
Cheers ..

Meschle - thank you for the intro to registry editing - good for beginners like me !
I use this:
Just to say, Happy Christmas to all,
AND
The registry setting for the soft keys is a marvel. I reckon it is better than any applet (going from what I hear), I havent tried any applet, I went straight to the registry and I must say It is exactly as promised.
My Setup:
O2 XDA Orbit, Mobile 6, Default Theme
Program to access Registry:
SOTI Pocket Controller Pro v6.01 (this is well worth the money)
i just tried to install a program to change the touchflo cube, touch settings by www.fatattitude.com, but now the 3 tab side is completely blank. is there any way to reinstall the touchflo software? i tried a soft reset and it didn't work. any suggestions?
if nothing else works, a hard-reset will get it back. note,however, that a hard-reset will return the phone to it's original state when you first got it. it will remove everything you loaded to/installed on the phone. perform a hard-reset: while holding down the 'green' and 'red' buttons perform a soft-reset. you'll get a message asking you to press the 'green' send key to verify you want to complete the hard-reset. good luck
Don't hard reset just yet.

use a registry editor and make sure you have values for icon path in the folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>HTC>Biotouch>MediaHubMini>App1_1 - App1_3

Hi,
this afternoon i was trying to flash the ROM of my LG KS20 when i read the combination to enter in the engineering menù. So i looked a bit through the different menus until i click on "Backlight On-Off" option in the "LCD Test" menu.
At this point, the screen on my LG turned off and now i can see that phone still working but the screen remains always black. For example if I click the power button on the right of PDA, the 2 button turn their light on but the screen remains black.The same is when i push the button of photograph machine...if I wait a few second and push again the button the PDA take a photograph because the flash work and i can hear the sound of shutter.
I try to hard reset the PDA, but all remains the same....what can I do???
Please help me
Thans a lot
Maybe you could try to install a software called "My Mobiler" (http://www.mymobiler.com - it's freeware). With this software you could access your KS20 through your PC and try to revert the settings in the LCD Menu?
thanks a lot....last night I found MyMobiler searching somethings for view the device screen on my desktop. After I installed it on my PDA (with some little problem to give the ok for the installation on PDA), I can see the device desktop and so I do the same procedure to restore the backlight.
So now all works fine.
Thanks
Have the same problem
but i not lucky... can't press ok on the black screen, can you publish screen with instalation on PDA to try locate the OK??
really thanks
On your screen, you should see the standard view of the installation process.
So, when you launch the install from your pc, you have to immagine the screen of the acknoledge of the install. try to push in the left corner at the bottom a couple of time, then you shoud see the today screen on your pc.
Same problem
I have the same problem, but I need to enter my pin, but I'm not able to enter it because I can't see anything...
And I change the USB settings in the engineering menu so I cannot connect with ActiveSync :S
Any idea?
Thanks a lot.
I've recently flashed my Orange UK diamond from the original Orange ROM to a cooked ROM, and since the update I've been unable to Lock Device... a long end key press makes the screen flash and return to the Touch Flo home page, but the device remains on, without keys locked. If I change the Long Press End Key option to display Quick List, then tap Lock Device the same thing happens. I've seen a couple of posts with the same issue, but no resolution.
My upgrade path was as follows:
Original Orange UK stock ROM
Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex
Diamond_Radio_1.00.25.05
SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-ROM-v6.2-Full
Duttys_Diamond_5.2.20748_V1_9_Radio_1.00.25.07_Full
SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-v6-5-Full-16MbPP
I tried Key Lock on the last 3 ROMs none of them worked (one of the reasons I tried the other two ROMS after 1st flash). I didn't try key lock after the Hard-SPL flash, so maybe an issue with Hard-SPL?
Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone got any suggestions on what might be the problem? Any other information I could supply to make this easier to diagnose?
Sorry if I've posted this incorrectly, but I'm a newbie to these forums!
Cooks can change settings. Maybe the set locking off. Download advance config and enable locking. It can be found here: http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-configuration-tool.html. Look under section "screen".
I've had a look at the Advanced Config program. I enabled the "Auto Device Lock" option. This password locks the device when it's turned off for more than 5 seconds, but I only really wanted the key lock option (where a password is not required). Any other ideas?
I can't let Mallman have all the fun and glory (although he is doing a damn good job at getting those themes out, thank you for the inspiration)
Here are the installation instructions for my theme which is a WVGA adaptation of the ActuProColor theme
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Wisbar Advanced Desktop 2
2. A device capable of 480x800 (WVGA) resolution
3. WWE ROM although you can update the links in the theme and use it for any ROM. Just more work to install if it isnt WWE
4. The zip file which is downloaded from www.imagesoflife-online.co.uk/temp/ActuProColor_WVGA.zip and is 9.3Mb
Uninstall:
Switch themes in settings for WAD2 and delete previously installed directories
Installation:
1. Extract "ActuProColor_WVGA.zip" to folder on your pc. You will end up with one folder with all of the bits you need inside it, including the icons and the wallpaper.
2. From your pc,copy the folder named "ActuProColour_WVGA" to the "Themes" under your Wisbar Advanced Desktop installation directory. If you installed Wisbar to your internal storage (not storage microsd card) the folder is:
\Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance Desktop\Themes ***note*** if this folder does not exist just create it
3. Start WAD2 and go to settings by touching and holding anywhere on the screen.
4. Select the "General" tab
5. Select "Change Theme"
6. Tap "ActuProColour"
7. Select "menu" at the bottom and choose "Set as portrait"
8. Select "apply"
9. Press "OK"
I have installed Klaxon to link to the clock for alarms and there is a link for S2U2 for the lock option.
This is my first theme so be gentle with me.
Hope you enjoy it.
super nice keep it up!!!!

cant d/l can u reup
It's still on the server...and hasn't changed.
I tried WAD with your theme but I have the following problems :
1) When the phone wakes up by pressing the power button, it shows WAD for a couple of seconds and then it reverts to S2U2. Therefore, if the power button is pressed accidentally when the phone is in my pocket, all widgets and phone hard keys are pressable during these two seconds, before S2U2 takes control. As a result, many times I find my HD in my pocket with lots of apps running ...
2) When I tried to replace S2U2 by extending your theme and building my own (WAD based) lock screen, the "home" hardkey didn't lock. As a result, I find many apps running when the phone is accidentally turned on and the home key is pressed ...
3) When the phone is locked by S2U2, it is asleep and I get an incoming call, if takes a couple of seconds to wake up. Even when it does, the dialer ID doesn't show correctly as either the caller's name or the control buttons (answer, reject etc) are not showing. This happens in both cases, that is if I use the WM buildin dialer ID windows, or the the S2U2 one.
Although I really loved WAD I had to reject it due to these problems.
Any ideas on these problems ?
Any answer would be appreciated
Unfortunately due to the quirkiness of WAD2, I have given up on it and now MSH3.
Sorry, can't help you any more as I don't have WAD2 installed.

I also had to reject WAD2 and turn to MS3 due to the problems described above. I posed this question just for verifying that these problems do not happen on my device only.
It is a shame that such a nice piece of customizable and creative software cannot cope with the HD device ...
