KTamas
Edit: okay, next time i swear i will use the search button first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18216&highlight=vol+volume+slider

Dit this work for you? On my BA (Original Qtek 9090 Dutch Rom) i do not see any buttons after installing the setup file.

Great hack. Really cool.
Does anyone know how to remove it?
I can't seem to get rid of:
\Windows\AddHotkeys.exe
Even if I do it immediately after a soft-reset, it doesn't work. The file is always in use.
I've tried numerous things, but no luck...
Thanks!
Mike

Hi Michael,
happily i know how to remove the things! I cant get it working so its useless 2 me.
Solution:
Open your (PC) explorer and go to your device (in cradle and on activesync) and into the folder \windows\start up\
Rename or remove (didnt remeber surely) the file addbuttons.exe (ie addbuttons.bak) and reboot (soft reset). You can get an error that the lnk addbuttons.bak cannot be found, if so click okay and continue.
Then delete the program via settings\remove programs and after if necessary, remove the addbutton.bak file from \windows\start up\.
Probably this solves your problem.
(But did you really liked it, did it work for u on your 9090?)

safemode
try to use this:
safemode at http://www.monocube.com/
I find it very useful

This is great stuff, guys!
Thanks!
I'll give it a shot.
Although, funnily, last night I was reading a PDF book, and I started getting used to the hack! I may leave it now!!
Silly me!
But these are great to know!
Thank you!
Mike

Fiddling around with WM6 Beta's eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt

I discovered that by fiddling around with this file (found in the /windows folder, you can quickly change the keymappings in the beta version. For example, I've only done a quick test, but I remapped the '%" symbol on the Q to be a "!" when alt is pressed or a long press is done. This worked in both Outlook and Word on my test. No reboot was needed BTW.
So if you haven't yet, check it out. I'm surprised it's this easy. What's the catch?

Does this mean that WM6 *will* have T9 on it?
(Pls. excuse my stupidity, but I have an O2 Cosmo (pretty much an Excalibur) and it does hot have currently T9 or XT9 or anything. And I can not reprogram it to access accented characters (which I am dying for).
Thanxx, Mixx

This was the solution I have been looking for now for a long time.
Thanks a million for the tip gadgetshrink.

But this does not work for the standard, preinstalled WM5, does it?
Just out of interest, what is the format/syntax of that file?
Thanxx, Mixx

It's a normal .txt file

Yes, but what I wanted is its syntax (what is in it and what does thet mean), in the hope that I discover similar files on the standard version.
There are actually some files in \windows that might contain key-codes. such as this file:
SymPad0407.txt
with content such as
...
00A7
00A8
00A9
00AA
00AB
00AC
....
which looks like key-codes to me. But I do not know, what to do with it.
Can someone help?
Thanxx, Mixx

I am trying to edit this file but when I put it back on the phone it says I do not have enough permissions.
My phone is 100% unlocked.
I have disabled 'read only' and still can't do it.
I am using Vista if that is where the problem is.

That's because the file is in ROM. But if you use TotalCmd CE (www.ghisler.com) you can. At least I can on my HTC Universal which otherwise has the same problem.

Yes I had problem with Vista in modifying this file
I was able to change this file using XP

Bluetooth Voice Command problems on new builds -- SOLVED (for REAL now!)

I was playing around with XCSdM's Bluetooth 0.9f fix and found the issue that's causing it to not work on newer (17913) builds on WM6.
When I navigate to the directory where BTVCFull or BTVCBasic is located, and try to manually launch either of those programs, I get this message:
The file 'BTVCFull' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I checked my security on the phone, and it is set to 'Security Off'. Next, I checked the file signature. They seem to NOT be signed at all. However, here's my problem. I can't sign the files myself as I'm too cheap to spring for Visual Studio 2005, and signtool is a big pita. So, Does someone want to sign them and throw the files up here? I think that should fix the problem IMHO.
But, I have identified the core problem at least--which is a step in the right direction.
** FOR THE REAL FIX ** See post's below with the new .cab and reg edit.

if im not mistaken there is a signing program in the new rom kitchen that was released today. its in the extras folder haven't played with it so im not sure how easy or well it works but it looks easy enough. pretty damn cool new kitchen also should check it out!

dunno if they will help

No.. It doesn't.. It's gotta be the drivers.. I'm supposed to be getting some new drivers soon; so, we'll see that helps.
I just wish it'd work correctly without any hacks to fix it..

I noticed the same thing when trying to launch BTVCBasic or Full. Changing the following key worked for me:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path="\Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVoiceCommand.exe"

keyboard mapping error and Kavana's latest ROM

Okay, I dug through the 160+ pages of his thread (okay maybe the last 20) and I found no mention of the problem I'm having. I apologize if this is a double post but maybe this will help people who are having the same problem quickly find it.
I have a T-mobile Dash I recently updated to Kavana's latest rom, and when I go to type a text message (this is all I've checked so far) Instead of qwerty I get like q.arrty or something of the like. The keyboard mapping is off. Is there a fix for this around?

Self bumping - I found it after looking a little harder. Thanks to Rip Syntaxx for the having it in your sig.
Link: HKBoySiR's Tegic eT9.cab (English Keyboard Mapping)

I also needed this
Thank you for that zip file that should solve the problem with the keyboard. I also have a t-mobile dash and I tried flashing the kavana 6.1 but I had a problem with the keys being backwards but hopefully this fixes it. I would just like to know if anyone can help with the internet settings. I have the t-mobile internet plan but when I flash to kavana it's all erased and tells me to set up an ip or whatever but I do not know how to do any of that stuff and I just want the exact same t=mobile internet settings, can someone help me out?

Transfer it to your phone via ActiveSync. Put it in your phone's 'My Documents' folder. Using 'File Explorer' (on your phone), open and install the .cab. Reboot your phone.

Rip...LMAO you might as well place those instructions in your signature as well
or make a read me text in a a folder prior to the folder with the cab

[HACK] (16/05/2010) Native SMS over IP

This thread is moved to here
Hello people,
I've been working on an SMS over IP application, but I decided to make it native, meaning replacing the WM sms dll with mine. It will work with any provider that supports the following url to send an SMS:
https://www.voipbuster.com/myaccount/sendsms.php?username=%0&password=%1&from=%2&to=%3&text=%4
or
https://www.exetel.com.au/sendsms/api_sms.php?username=%0&password=%1&mobilenumber=%3&message=%4&sender=%2&messagetype=Text
where:
%0 stands for username
%1 stands for password
%2 stands for from number
%3 stands for to number
%4 stands for text
You need to add te following keys to your registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\url:
Type is REG_SZ, value is the complete url with placeholders, see the above examples
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\username:
Type is REG_SZ, value is your username
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\password:
Type is REG_SZ, value is your password
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\from:
Type is REG_SZ, value is your phone number validated by your voip provider in international format, e.g. +9012345689
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\option:
Type is REG_DWORD, value is one of the following:
0 = Use internet only, don't fallback to gsm
1 = If internet sending fails, automatically send it over gsm
2 = If internet sending fails, popup a confirmation box before sending over gsm
3 = Don't use IP, send it over gsm
4 = Ask first what to do
5 = Use IP only for international sms
bit4: set = automatically establish internet connection if not already available
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Drizzt\SMSoIP\prefix:
Type is REG_SZ, value is your country code (e.g. 90 for Turkey, 32 for Belgium, 49 for Germany, ...)
Thanks to oruam57 for developing the configurator so that you don't need to edit the registry manually. He also compiled everything into the attached cab installer.
WARNING. This cab installer may cripple your phone. READ BELOW! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
This cab installer overwrites \Windows\sms.dll. Original SMS functionality is supposed to be offered by the new file \Windows\sms_orig.dll that is a copy of sms.dll from a WM6.1 phone.
If you happen to have problems:
- extract sms.dll from the image of the ROM of your phone (search in the forum about how to do it);
- rename it to sms_orig.dll;
- install the cab and DO NOT soft reset;
- overwrite \Windows\sms_orig.dll with the sms_orig.dll from your ROM;
- soft reset.
CHANGELOG V1.7
- New option = 5, use IP only for international sms
- Fixed: Multiline bug
- Fixed: MessageBox going to background
- Changed url format, added placeholders
CHANGELOG V1.6
Fixed: Bug when sending to a foreign country
CHANGELOG V1.5
Establish data connection automatically if wifi connection is not available

Tested and works on a Touch Pro also.

So what exactly are the benefits of this? Free SMS?

Choose between gsm or internet
Hi there,
I like the idea about being able to send sms via the betamax voip companys. Do you think it's possible to somehow choose whether you want to send via gsm or internet, without changing the reg value every time

That requires a code change. So, when you push send, you want a popup to select internet or gsm, correct?

Yes exactly or maybe a switch/checkbox where you can select sending method. I don't have that much experience in WM developing so i wouldn't know how to accomplish that.

Unfortunately, it does not work on my Diamond2 and it even stops Manila from loading.

Are you on a stock rom? Try installing SDKCert.cab (search in the forum). You could try disabling threaded sms. Another thing you could try is to extract the sms.dll file from the image of the rom you are using (search in the forum about how to do it), and rename it to sms_orig.dll and use it instead of the one from my zip (you still need to use my sms.dll).

Thanks for your answer.

Done that too. Same result.
I suppose that the sms management part of manila does something funny with sms.dll Moreover, I noticed my sms.dll is larger than yours. I attach it hereafter.

I suppose I can. I'll report as soon as possible.

Something very strange happened!
I used total commander to overwrite the sms.dll in ROM with your sms.dll, then I soft reset and all started right, including manila.
I was surprised so I listed the windows directory using total commander and there were a sms.dll (lower case) and a SMS.DLL (upper case)! From dates and attributes it seems that sms.dll is the original ROM file and SMS.DLL is your file.
It seems that the original sms.dll is in use (sms are sent and received as usual) but the problem is that total commander now refuse to delete, rename or overwrite both sms.dll and SMS.DLL Never saw something like that!
For the moment I'm stuck, I do not know how solve this situation and can not do more tests on your hack

Ok, crisis solved (sktools did not see the "double" file but I found a procedure with total commander), back to work.
After overwriting sms.dll with your sms.dll and renaming the dump of my original sms.dll to sms_orig.dll I soft resetted.
As expected manila refused to load. Then I run tmail.exe and sent a test sms. Unfortunately nothing happened. I also consulted my voipbuster log and no sms activity was present.

strange, did you double check the registry values? And what if you disable manila, soft-reset, and send an sms using tmail.exe? I see people writig about htc sms bug, there is even a hotfix for it, perhaps related to your problem.

Rececked everything 2 times and disabled manila too but it does not work. With your sms.dll when I press send nothing happens and the sms is not sent on IP and on GSM either. It seems there is definitely some incompatibility with my phone. What a pity

Hi again drizztje, sorry for my late answer, been busy with other things. Thanks for this "new" version with a fourth option, i have just one finale question before i implement this dll in my HD2 will this work with HTC messaging or do i have to go back to the native Windows Mobile messaging?
