disabling roaming indicator on smartphone, home screen background oddities & comm mgr
Apologies if I've put too simple a topic in this forum. I have three questions. My phone is actually a Samsung i320, but I'm hoping these questions apply across any WM5 smartphone.
1) How can I disable the roaming indicator? I've got an older Voicestream SIM and most unlocked/import phones think I'm roaming. I tried the same reg key as on the K-Jam PPC but it didn't work.
2) I've created a custom home screen with a transparent top menu bar. When I select a background jpg for it the jpg is cropped (for lack of a better word) to the size it would display if the top menu bar was not transparent. So depending on how I align the image (top or bottom) I get to see the background color where more of the image should display. Even stranger it behaves normally on the jpg files on the phone labelled "protected content" which seem to make a copy of themselves in \Windows under a shared file name when selected.
3) If I have another WM5 HTC smartphone (a StarTrk for example) is it possible to take that comm manager and copy it over to my Samsung i320? I miss the option to turn on and off the MS push. Alternatively what is the reg key entry to turn this on and off? (Yes I realize I can set schedules,etc, but it was sure nice on my K-Jam to just hit one button to temporarily disable it)
Thanks all for your expert help.

It works some registry hack: HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
DisableRoamingIndicator
Change value to 1
...and it warks graeat. BUT !! remember afthe changing value wait some time, about 1-2min before make RESET, it is important !

Registry problem ?

Hi, i'm trying different registry tweaks on my Artemis and i was wondering why some changes can't be stored and other can ?
For example to disable USB charging i've set the key value to 0, soft reset and value comes back at 1 ! Is it normal ?
I've the same problem when i want to changhe audio gain for example...
Thanks for you help, Laurent.

It has happened to me once. I noticed when you set the value to 0 you will need to close the registry editor first. When you do that it will ask you if you want to save the changes and of course you say yes. Then you soft restart.
What have you changed for the audio value increase?

OK i found the reason why : i had no sim inserted... Inserted one and it works now ! So i'll try other tweaks and particulary i'll try to get the Media Player louder...
Laurent.

Hi,
the Trick with the Registry:
1) Change your Registry with an Registry Editor.
2) Switch your Windows Mobile Devive off.
3) wait 30 Seconds.
4) Switch your Device on.
5) Now! You can make the needed Softreset.......

rotation

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321625
can anyone help rotate the screen the other way i have changed the number on the code using the ''PHMRegedit'' app on toms B&B v4 rom but no joy, not even after a reset
where i done it was
my device > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > system > GDI > rotation
then in both LandscapeFixed and LandscapeMode changed the value data to 4 on both/1 at a time/all combinations and soft reset
no joy
am i doing someting wrong?? or is it not possible
i want the start button nearest to the green phone button
not next to the XDA lettering on phone
please help

It worked from me by just changing the value to 4 in LandscapeMode only. But I am using the offical O2 WM6 ROM.

still no worky

Change Landscapefixed to 0. This enables the screen rotation direction option in Settings/System/Screen.

still the same'

REGEDIT

I was wondering why the regs in a rom keep changing back to original settings
I use regedit to change things, but everytime i change the push mail to 1
after a couple hours it back at 0. so push mail is off again.
I thought that maybe theres a reg that keeps restoring the settings.
But with other settings it doesnt change back, like the wake up at sms.
Because i found a reg in HKEY/local_machine/RegPersisted and its set to 1
i dont know for sure if this has something to do with it, but i think that this whats keep turning back the reg settings.
I also found the same regkey in HKEY/current_user
Could someone explain this to me??before i turn it to 0 and mess things up
Thanks in advance

Are you by any chance using the keypad lock feature by long pressing the "end call" button? It seems to set some settings back to default. I'm not sure if this is the case, but you could try not using the keylock and see if the settings keep their user set value.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What's the problem? If you mess things up, just do a hard reset...
Give it a try, and let us know about the results
HastaSSSS

regedit
i changed the regkey for the persisted reg to 0 but no effect. after couple of hours when i check its back to 1.
same for the push mail,its back at 0.
How the f*#k can i keep the settings i make.
i find it so strange that that reghack for the sms wakeup event is good , but every otherthing i change keeps going back to standard

editing the registry of htc touch diamond

Hallo!
I've got some problems with editing the registry in my htc.
I'm using - CeRegEditor and PHM Regedit and I can't change, f.e
- waking up my device while getting a new sms:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to
"1" = no wake up
"0" = wake up after sms
or
-the navigation control lightening after getting a new sms:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Defau lt\Duration --> I've changed from default "5" into "1" and nothing - there is lightening all the time, untill I answer the message
What's wrong?
Obviously after any change I do Soft Reset. And there are changes visible, but only in the registry (and it's still NOT working)
I've got standard rom from HTC - 1.93.
Maybe I have to change my rom? (but I do not want to, I'd rather set up mine)
