[SOLVED] Remove HTC Volume Control

Edit: See Post #7 for the solution!
This thread was originally posted with this title:
[REQ] Custom ROM without HTC volume control
Hello,
Does anyone have the time or inclination to make a ROM without the volume control? I only ask because I've so far found no way of disabling the program.
Basically I've discovered that the standard WM dialer is more responsive and more intuitive than the Diamond one while using about 8MB less memory. The problem is, the in-call volume won't work unless the HTCVolumeControl can be disabled or removed.
I'm going to follow up this request with a noob question - how easy is it to take an existing cooked ROM and remove applications?
Many thanks

Cooking a ROM without Volume control is easy. Just remove the DIAMOND Volume Control from your kitchen.

Many thanks for the reply! I don't currently have a kitchen.
If I were to find a chef who is willing to let others alter their work, how long would it take a novice to achieve?

Try VIC's ROM for example. Also take a look at: Cooking Guides for Ultimate Noobs.

Thanks again. I've had a look at VIC's ROM, looks good. I'll have a look at that guide when I have some spare time.
How much time would you guess it would take to do the job? I'm a complete noob but fairly quick learner.

Isn't there an option to disable this in one of the tweak progs, either schaps adv. config or diamond tweak, I'm sure one of the two can do this.

What about a .cab that can remove it ? Only if you like it, I have attached it, and it WORKS
Good luck ^^

This option does exist in Diamond Tweak but it doesn't work.
I've searched the forum and found a manual method that involves stopping a service called HTCVolume, however that service doesn't appear to exist in the latest ROMs. HTC must have changed something which would also explain Diamond Tweak not working.

I have just tested it, and it works. But you said 8mb ram will be free ? I don't agree on that point. :/

It works, thanks!

For me, the 8MB free came when using the standard WM dialer rather than the HTC one. It's not as pretty but it does match my altered windows colour scheme. I'd rather have a phone that works properly than one that just looks nice - which is why I'm not using TouchFlo 3D either.
I would guess I'm getting an additional 1 or 2 MB with the volume control also gone.

Oh, I can see that now .. Anyway, that's why I have customized mine, as hell ..
On a fresh boot I get 42%, with orginal touchflo 3d. But anyway, glad I could help you

It came back after a soft reset! What does the cab do?

Strange, it's overwrite the existing files in the windows dic. I will try working some thing out..
Edit:
It works fine here, even with a soft reset.. :S

Thanks for your help!
Just remembered, I also ran a cleanup with SKTools, I suppose it is possible that caused it to revert. I'll have a play and see if I can recreate.

Seems the DLL?? messes up the font of the USB PopUp and SIP Selection screen Will try to cook a ROM without the VolumeControl to see if you can disable it without causing trouble to the fonts on the device..

I'm already using a ROM without the HTC Volume Control, Panosha Simple 1.1, so I don't need this cab anymore. It was invaluable before I switched ROMs!
I can confirm that the SIP selection text is already broken, without installing this cab. HTC must have relied on their dialer dll for the fonts on these other menu screens.

Not had that problem, except for the one time mentioned above which was caused by SKTools.
It's a very plain ROM - no Manila, Opera or even MMS! However, it suited my needs and I was able to track down all of the cabs I needed eventually.

BaseHue.exe also works on other Smartphones/PDAs

i just played around with the basehue.exe (located in windows-folder, which is available as "System Base Hue, Change Color Sheme"-Option on Home-Screen and in Options on S620 using Kavanas 6.1-ROM, but not on other devices, mainly touch-screen devices, i think.), as the Mode of selecting the Bar-Color is wery easy with this app. So as this file was neither on m WM6.1 Dell X50v-PDA nor on my HTC Wizard WM6.1 Smartphone, where i before used Tweaks 2k2 for changing the Bar-colors, i tried copying this file to both PDA's and it works. (even with working touch-screen!). It's a very fast and easy way of changing colors around.
I thought, it might be a useful trick to try for others like me, which also have other HTHC or 6.0/6.1-Devices. (haven't tried it with WM5./6.0 yet.)
So, if it's allowed (Kavana, i ask you?), i may upload the single exe for others to use here.

Does the colour stay after a soft-reset?

Basehue will work with ALL Windows Mobile 5 and 6 smartphones and PPCs. All it does is change the basehue entry under the hklm/software/microsoft/color key. Oh and Kavana didn't write it. He just cooked a ROM with it

Seen it was freeware and since it changes a reg then my question is answered thank you

Not saving settings
For some reason if I use basehue or manually edit the registry, when I soft reset my colors get restored to whatever is in the home screen options under settings. I've had this issue before, but it went away. Now its back and rather annoying. Using Rickys Rose 1.6 with sliding panels. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I posted on the NRG Rose Remade thread about BaseHue, i'm not sure why it doesn't hold but have found that if you use SmartToolKit it will hold the colour after a reset

Odd
Sorry I missed your post, must have overlooked it, but I did search first. What's odd is I do use smarttoolkit. Weird.

AutoBaseHue
Found this program over at Modaco that resets the registry key at startup to whatever it was before a soft reset.
Heres the modaco link with info:
http://www.modaco.com/content/smartphone-software-freeware-download-discussion/258993/autobasehue/
The file was no longer available on Modaco, but a little Googling turned up this zip file with the install cab and instructions. I just tested it and it worked like a charm. If anyone is interested the value for the black bars is 160.

Well, i tried the basehue on my new Universal (first in WM5, then with 6.1) and still works. (And the color stays after soft-reset.) Seems to be a similar program as the autobasehue posted above this post, ut instead of typing numbers, have a color-circle (switchable to greyscale).
Here i'm giving you the file from Kavana's HTC S620-Rom.

Thanks
Thanks for your response, but I believe this is the same one that is included with the NRG Rose remake by ricky and stylez, which I currently use. It stopped working for me and the link and file I provided works 100% all of the time. Just trying to give everyone a working option if they are facing the same scenario I am. Thanks again.

comm manager won't load

Hi, I tried many roms and most of them work fine. but I'm always having comm manager issues.
On first boot, comm manager loads fine. but after some use.
whenever i want to use comm manager to load wifi or bt, it won't show up.
I need to reboot the phone and do it.
does anyone know what could be causing this?
thanks

i dont know why it does that but (assuming your using 6.1 and up) you go into the task manager and kill the wrlsmanager process. go back to the home screen and restart the app it should start up now and avoid the reboot.

thanks!
i'll do that when it happens.
so annoying... lol

I had that problem, it was irritating but I just had to make myself press the "Done" button in Comm Manager when I had finished using it, rather than just switching to another app. It always seemed to open fine after I changed my habits! ;-)

it happened again, but this time i don't see wrlsmanager process
and reboot doesn't work.
any other ideas?
thanks

is this an issue in every rom? or could it be hardware?
cuz every rom i'm trying is acting like this.
some don't even load after a reset.
it just shows the color wheel.
i have 19mb free ram. so what gives?
Thanks

I'm not so sure if I am understanding this incorrectly, but is it that Bluetooth and Wifi are greyed out on the comm manager? or will the comm manager just not work?
If it is the prior, then what ROM are you using currently (although you say you have tried many)? If it is Ookba's 3vo V2.5.080809 then he posed a fix on the second post for Wifi issues. I know i had issues where Wifi wouldn't start. I installed the fix, and it did exactly that, it fixed it. Not so sure about bluetooth...
I would go ahead an ask Ookba what he did, because at one point he mentioned suspecting there were hardware differences in some Excalibur units...
If it is that the comm manager wont start up, that is weird. If killing the process doesn't always work, check the sortcut...I know that one or two ROMS that i had used in the past had problems where they accidentally put "commmmanager" or something of the sorts, and most of the time, the phone was unable to interpret that correctly.
If it isnt either of those, then I am sorry I am totally off track haha.
Anyways, hope I helped a bit...

Hi
the comm mananger won't load.
and there is no wrls manager process running.
it doesn't load after a reset sometimes either.
I tried the roms posted in the wiki
most of the wm 6.1 roms posted in the wiki
080408 - Remade By Rickywatt
NRG's 'Rose' ROM ver. 1.4
NRG Rose Rom v1.7 - Remade by Ricky and Stylez
and
3VOLUTION series
thanks
what should the comm manager target be?
thanks

Well, i just used a text editor to look at my phone's CommManager link on the start menu ...
Running Ookba's 3VO 2.5 (with the WiFi Patch installed) it says this:
Code:
39#"\Windows\CommManager.exe"
?\Windows\SP_ProgramIcon.dll,-110
The second line is for the links icon...the first line points to where the Communications Manager program is...make sure it matches that...
By the way...are you launching comm manager from the start menu or from the CComm panel on the homescreen, or are you using the 'hold down the TZones/Internet button' method implemented in some ROMs?...for any of them there is a way to check the link....
I mentioned above how to check for Start Menu....
For the CComm Panel, go into the registry with a registry editor...Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CComm\ ... in there should be keys named "Page1", Page2 and so on...check each of them for "SK2URL" and make sure that for each the value is "\Windows\CommManager.exe" (no quotes " ")
For the holding down of the TZones/Internet button, go to the windows directory and look for long_IE.lnk (i think that is what it is called, im not sure though...my phone doesnt have that) and make sure it points to the correct file...
That is really all i can think of...hope it helps

thanks,
but how do u check a shortcut on a smartphone, i used to use shortcut creator on the PPC. but it doesn't work for the smartphone.

Do you have Notepad or something on your phone? If not I believe there is a NotePad program on the Development and Hacking sub-forum on XDA, if not you can go to this site, they have a notepad application i belive
http://mobile.surrealnetworks.com/DashApps.htm
Use that to open the .lnk file...
And i use Resco RegEdit to edit the registry, but i believe most ROMS have some reg editor built in...

Thanks,
mine says:
59#"\windows\CommManagerlink.exe"
should i rename it?

For starters, why is it "CommManagerlink.exe", it should just be "CommManager.exe", unless that is how the ROM was cooked.
Okay, try this...
First, go to the WINDOWS directory, and find CommManager.exe, and click it. If it works, then the shortcut is the problem...if so move on to the next 'step'...
Using a file explorer, make a backup copy of the .lnk file (just do a duplicate, or copy and paste into a new folder) just incase something goes wrong.
Now, for the first try, just change "CommManagerlink.exe" to "CommManager.exe" (obviously, no " "). if that doesn't work, do the next method.
If the first method didn't work, try replacing the contents of the .lnk file with
Code:
39#"\Windows\CommManager.exe"
If that method did not work, then I am really not sure what is wrong. However, i know that some ROM's come cooked with Resco Explorer...and there is a function on one of the menus to "Send to Start Menu as a Shortcut"...that would make it a whole lot easier...since you could just do that instead of making/modifying your own...
Look inside the WINDOWS folder, and look for "CommManagerlink.exe" ... I doubt it exists...but it all depends on what ROM you are using, as I don't know the specifics of EVERY ROM. So what ROM are you currently using?
Hope this helps

Odd, I have both. LOL
CommManagerlink.exe and the non link one.
I'll make 2 short cuts and see which one works better.
I'll report back with results
Thank you for all ur help.

Dammit it happened again.
I don't get it.
why it doesn't load up.
even when i try the phone alarm buttons it doesn't work.

Give me som details about your phone...
Where was it made (China or Taiwan)? (it says behind the battery, on the phone)
What ROM are you running?
How much are you overclocking?
What applications do you have installed?
Are you trying to use the 'NEW' CommManager (the sleek one), or the Old Default (for stock ROMs) that is tacky?
And any other detail you think is important...
From that i may be able to help you more!

Hey,
thanks for helping me out.
I have the Taiwan version and the China version.
both of them are currently using the NRG rose 1.4 rom.
i have programs like,
Sktools, phone alarm, facade and S2u2 installed.
But i had this issues before installing any programs.
it happens on and off. and sometimes a softreset brings it back.
the rom came with the HTC comm manager.
but I switched it to the tacky one cuz it loads up faster and i don't need to scroll.
Thanks

S2U2? Are you even using an Excalibur? If not, you have posted in the wrong thread, as this is for EXCALIBUR phones. Although i guess windows mobile is windows mobile no matter what phone you are on.
I would do some google'ing...search for errors related to programs, bugs, or glitches that might make them interefere with the phone's normal functions. I would try looking at Facade since (if i am correct) that interacts with the homescreen, which i suppose could accidentally screw something up with other system functions.
These are all guesses, and I can't honestly think of anything else...It is really up to good google powers now haha.

Yea I'm using the Tmobile Dash. lol
I use S2u2 as the locking program.
it works well. the old locking program didn't work too well for me.
I had this issue before i knew about facade or installed it.
thanks

Oh, i was under the impression S2U2 was only for TouchScreen. Anyways, so the problem did happen BEFORE using Facade...hmmmm...thinking time!
I will get back to you as soon as i can think of a solution for your situation. However I am busy on my theme!
My current solution...Upgrade to one of the WM6.5 ROMs...they are awesome IMHO and probably give you better battery life...

Zoom Bar Scrolling--Tweak--

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a ROM out there that offers a tweak that allows the Zoom bar to be used to scroll thru lists like the old TP1. So it will save time with File explore and other apps. Thanks, and i am sorry if i posted this in the wrong place.
Also if there is anyother tweaks for the Zoom bar

Which rom are you using... if the chef is using a smarttouch.dll from another phone ext like leo it will not work... if you open opera or IE it should allow you to zoom in using the phone zoom bar.. the registry containes allot of entries so it should support allot of different applications....
edit: may need a reboot to take effect.

im using fusion rom v5.1 and zoom already works on opera,
will it work on scrolling through contacts on beejive im ?

Ive just started using this tweak and its pretty nice, but im wondering if its possible to reverse the setting. I would rather sliding to the right mean scrolling upward (up dpad) than what it is now. Also take into account that when i expose the keyboard and attempt to to slide to scroll up, i actually have to slide down to scroll up!

can u guys can make 2 work with iris browser that would by nice

Am I missing something, I installed the cab and restarted the phone. Nothing. Soft reset, still nothing. Do I then have to enable something? Using a TP2 on Verizon. Is this GSM only?
Thanks

Really the only app I'd need for this is MICROSOFT READER so I can slide right to turn a page and slide left to go back.
I see the reg hacks, but am unsure what to use for ClassName for Reader..
can you help?
Thanks,

works great
on my tmobile tp2 flashed to 6.5 European rom...

Works somewhat on stock sprint rom only a few apps actually work but hey I like thanks

Any chance it works on Topaz?

[KITCHENS+ROMS] [WWE] [Nov.04.2009] WM6.5 23506 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i!

23506 BETA Download bottom of this post
This is the new WM6.5 23506 - I'm Starting with a BETA - I need feedback please so I can create a working version... As this is a BETA, there will probably be some issues with it. As always, Back Up Your Data!
Only download and install this version if you like to tinker and deal with possible problems. So far, it's been good, aside from the below issue.
I just had an issue a few moments ago. My phone was off, (So I Thought). It was checking my Gmail account, then went to sleep during the download, then froze while it was off for about 1 hour. It drained about 1/4 of my battery and I had to Soft Reset to get it back. Please beware there MAY be issues, or this could have been one of those rare & wonderful WM glitches that happens occasionally.
I was going to try to fix the problems in the previous 23504 ROM, but I've been using 23506 for a bit today. It seems to be VERY Responsive, Stable, and has Plenty of memory available (Some things seem REALLY Fast). I have cooked a Stock ROM with a couple "SuperSport" mods, (Mostly Visual), and it is looking like 25.76MB Free Ram (20-22 after a few hours) and 67.14MB Free Storage. This is leaving in SkyMarket, Live, Themes, Ringtones, and all the WM Widgets. The only things I removed are AutoUpdate (Does Nothing Anyways), MSTag (Not Compatible with Trinity Camera), and some extra files for other resolutions. Otherwise, as it was made. Oh, I changed some Images for my Theme. I may create a Cab to put all images back to stock if I get time. This will probably be a highly requested option.
Pin Lock appears to work properly now. I know a few of you will like that.
I plan to release the Stock ROM tonight as a BETA so that I can get feedback. My phone's WiFi is still broken, so Please test it, and I'd like feedback on the BT File Transfer. I can see some of the files are there, but don't know if it's working.
I don't have a lot of time to test everything on this, so would appreciate help with that. When I get enough feedback, I'll fix what I can and release a couple flavors of it.
I'm really proud of this one. It's the first one where I did not borrow a completed SYS/XIP from someone else. I assembled this one myself, so everything is as it should be and very clean. Also could be a Train Wreck.
One pet peeve: HoneyComb is Back! Eewww I'll try to figure out how to get rid of that for those who want.
Thanks to everyone for your feedback, good and bad. I'm trying to make our Trinity run a little longer...
PS: Because I have no idea how to move them, I've got 127 Modules in Slot #0 and 254 in Slot #1. Not sure if it would help or hurt to move them as it runs really nice now. Maybe it would be REALLY fast if moved?[/COLOR][/I]"
Each Different Version will be listed with a Download Link for each. In each Download Link I will post the Self Extracting Kitchen, an RUU_Signed.nbh, and an AutoFlash file.
What is AutoFlash you ask? I've taken the RUU file, added the Flashing Program, and Packaged it all up into an AutoExecuting AutoFlashing Program, and, it's a smaller download than the RUU alone. Pretty cool huh? Yes, others have already done this, but I'm going to make it a standard practice from now on.
"AutoFlash (tm), Making Flashing Socially Acceptable, One Package at a Time!"
My recommendation for Flashing is:
Make sure you have Hard SPL on your Phone. I recommend Olipro 1.20 - Click Here for More Info
Be sure your battery is at least 50% full.
Start your phone in Tri Color Screen mode. Steps below
--Unplug your phone from USB
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
--Plug in the USB cable (if asked about installing a driver, do this), You should see USB in the White Box)
Now you can Flash.
Run the AutoFlash file for the ROM you've selected, or Flash using the Standard Flashing Program included in the Kitchen.
Enjoy!

Thank you to EVERYONE on XDA. Chefs, Programmers, Cookers, Users, Noobs, everyone! You've ALL helped me to be able to do these. I'm sure I'll learn a LOT more as the days go by.
NEW!!! Color Themes!!! In Attachments!!! Also, Enable or Disable Startup Sound
Use these to Change the colors of the Today Screen, Menu Screen, and Dialer. Portrait & Landscape! Grid.zip is two cab files I made that will remove or add the Menu Grid.

Hi Supersport,
Just flashed, wifi works fine for me!!!
Do you remember? I had some problem with the 23504 version.
Thanks a lot

Videocall doesn't work :-(

Dear Supersport
Flashed the 23506 and have following observations:
1) PIN lock works
2) WIFI works
3) Communication manager when started from top bar does not start and had to start wifi fro connections.
4) Microsoft My Phone program is old one and have new cab file on my storage card so that I don't have to download again and again.
Will post further feedback tomorrow morning about battery performance and PIN lock problem, if any.

WiFi, Pin Lock

No, Videocall is something I'll have to add. This is just a Stock Version of the OS that does not include Video Calling. That feature is all but gone on most newer phones, I'm assuming. So, for the Trinity, we add it back in using an old dialer from our original OEM ROMs. This will come later when I get a chance to make different flavors of this ROM.
PS: Glad the WiFi is working for you. I hope it's the same for everyone. 23504 Varied from user to user.

Same thing here. CommManager is not included with the Stock OEM ROM as it is probably different from phone to phone. That will also be added in on future versions.
I'm glad to hear the other two things work.
I'm having a little trouble with my phone hanging during Email stuff. Anybody else experiencing this? Since my Radio is Bunged up, I'm not sure if it's just me...
Anybody get a chance to try BT File Transfer? Is it there or working? EDIT: My initial test tells me this is probably not working...

Does anybody remember how to get rid of the HoneyComb Frames?

The first one let me know which files I was looking for. Thank You AGAIN _X_! I pulled the cpr files from my 23504 and cabbed them. Now, you can add or remove the Grids per your liking. Just install either Cab and Restart. Now, if I cook without them in the future, you can easily add them back in.
Cabs in First Post. Unfortunately, I ran out of Attachment Slots (Max 8), so I zipped them together as Grid.zip Attached here seperately.

The following is the info/update in the morning:
1) Wifi works like a charm
2) Battery is stable during wifi usage and normal usage and no unusual drainage observed.
3) PIN lock works without any problem.
4) Synch with PC also works smoothly.
5) If there is no communication mamager in this version , then why it is shown when u press top bar phone signal sign? Please look in this as something else may be the reason for communication manager not working.

Actually, it's not included in the SYS normally. It's usually cooked in later by the chefs. I'm not sure why, as I think I remember it being there in the Older ROMs. It will be fixed on my next release. Yes, the reference is there in the Notifications, but the program itself is not.

I will need to be gone for a good part of the weekend, so I wanted to give you something to play with while I'm gone. I'll probably log in a few times using my phone, but not sure how much I'll be responding.
This is 23506 with some SYS packages removed. I added a few EXT packages to make it easier to work with and help with diagnosing.
Removed:
IE8 - IE6 Still there

Have fun, and I hope it runs well for everyone. I haven't had much time to test this one either.
Get it in Post #1 using the DOWNLOAD link. Grab "AutoFlash 23506 Lite w Addons.exe" Should be finished uploading in about 5 Mins

Have a nice weekend

Sorry, I screwed up the link. It's there now, along with this cab that will give you 4 rows with grid, for anyone who would prefer that (using typhoonk's cpr files I put a quick cab together). I might try editing the cpr files later so the grid is removed with 4 rows, we'll see.

No link for ROM found. Can you chk again.

Strange. I just looked, and it's there. Maybe try refreshing the page 1st page?

Found ROM now under same download link, which I had missed and am downloading the same. Cannot wait to try it.

Dear Supersport
Flashed AutoFlash 23506 Lite w Addons and looks good. On the outset, PIN lock, wifi is working well. Communication manager also gives confidence that all looks well. MS office alos working smoothly. Will play and post feedback tomorrow. Have a nice weekend.
