How to Get Date on top with Time

Hi
Is there a way to get the date and time together on the top.
I have tried the registry options - given in ten forum ..but it dint work
Dhruv

Put Date and Time in Top Bar
Look for that text near the bottom of the page

I tried that but doesnt work..anyother way

Hi dhruvkataria,
The way I did it was to transfer the extended rom from the glorious jojo & toenailed ROM from my old Himalaya to my new Blue-Angle and just installed the cab file called "Date" worked like a dream. I have tryed to attach that file to this post...hope it works. If you just copy it to your machine using ActiveSync and install it that should do the trick. Any problems just shout...
Cheers

i use a program called Wisbar Advance 2 that will allow you to add skins and give you the date and time on the corner...very customizable app. and very cheap....here is the link....if you like the program make sure you keep up with the forums for new beta release updates and skins....cheers....

This works:
1) Go to the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell key.
2) Add a Binary value called "TBOpt" if it does not already exist.
3) Set the value to "0x 00 00 00" where x=0 (Nothing), x=1 (Time), x=2 (Date) and x=3 (Date and Time)
4) Soft reset.
But how do you get AM/PM next to the time displayed?

Or grab a (14 day) trial copy of Spb's Tips & Tricks 1.5 - it includes the tweak as a built in feature.

[SOLVED] possible to change phone number length ?

I'm having a problem with my HTC touch since it is not showing names for incoming calls since I have all my contacts stored in international format
+961 (x) 123456 for more details http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322716
after struggling with the problem for one day I have found out that the problem is that phone numbers here in lebanon are 6 digits (without area code) and in most other countries 7 and wm6 considering the phone number anything greater than 8 digits
is it possible to change this through the registries?? I can't do it through regional settings since there is no regional settings for Lebanon
I found a key hklm\security\phone\PBLookupMinPhoneNumberLength it default value was 8 i tried to change that to 7 and rebooted but no luck

can anyone give me their input on this please?

SOLVED
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\CallIDMatch
change the value from 8 to the desired number 7 in my case

can u tell me how u did it and what tool to use to enter the registery... Thanks. i have the same problem

Do a google search for PHMregedit. Apart from that changing values in the registry with that programme is no rocket science...

Let me edit the above instructions a bit. Below is my version:
What you need: The freeware "PHM Registry editor" software from the internet.
Step1: Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone and find the value name "CallIDMatch" not a subfolder called CallIDMatch... I was looking for a subfolder initially, which mislead me.
Step2: Change the value data from "08 00 00 00" to "0x 00 00 00" (where x is I guess the number length for incoming numbers without country code. In my case it was 7)
Step3: Reset the phone and that's done!

WM6 dialer

How do I get this dialer for my HTC P3300? I recently purchased this phone which came with a wm6 os installed and it has the native smart dialer.
However, i would like to have this dialer.
Please help
cheers
Burjis

Install, before In registry HKLM > Security > Phone > Skin
Change Enabled from 1 to 0
And reboot

Thanks but could you please elaborate on this registry thing... i am new with the registry edits etc...
cheers
Burjis

Install this editor.

Couple of simple steps
Ok here a couple of simple steps for you.
1. copy the attached Areo_Dialer.cab file to your xda (Its not exactly the same dialler skin as the one you posted but its as close as i could find), tap it from there and it will install.
2 if you dont have a registry editor, use the one tabarda has provided.
once you have installed both (the Areo_Dialer.cab & Registry Editor) open the Registry Editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL _MACHINE > Security > Phone > Skin > then change Enabled from 1 to 0.
Then do a soft reset and it should now have the dialpad you requested.
hope this helps
Wooley

Thanx a ton... u guys are too good...
cheers
Burjis

NO, no, they are wrong! (just partly...)
There is NO NEED TO INSTALL ANYTHING! The picture in the first post shows the original WM6 dialer that comes built-in, by Microsoft. But you usually cannot see this, because or HTC either the branded versions put their own dialer skin 'above' the original one.
So, the only thing to do: obtain a registry editor (the posted one is OK), navigate to 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Security / Phone / Skin' and change the value of 'Enabled' from 1 to 0. Then soft reset and voilá: you will see exactly the same dialer like in the picture.

thats what i thought? i think theres a post on it which i asked the same thing in meschles 2.1 touch rom
but if you want to divert back to the other pad do you just edit to 1 again and soft reset?

i just did this and nohting changed? i have the same dialler that you get with the touch 2.1 wm6 mechle's rom?

change the setting. WAIT ABOUT 20-30 SECONDS and then soft reset.
The WAIT is hard to explain, but then you can be sure a registry setting keeps changed.

worked fine after the WAIT

To modify PIN pad you can remove this line:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"

How to customize the Chome WM 6.5 ROM

Here is a little tutorial to customize the Chome WM 6.5 ROM , this discovery is credited to sebastien13.
First go to Xda and download this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497232
It will enable / disable the tables and put in the order that suits you.
Then download it here:

WWE : http://www.rayfile.com/files/1424a33d-2a63-11de-a68b-0019d11a795f/
Disable Chome Today the once unzip the folder, copy "cmhomeres.dll.0409.mui" in Windows and "mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs.provxml" in My Documents. Launch "AdvancedConfig" Menu-Import. Provisioning XML, then click My Documents, the box at the bottom click mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs.provxml, wait 5 seconds and then "OK" and "Completed."
Today's Chome reactivate, you will have a "Programs" and in addition by dragging right or left 9 programs will appear.
You can also change the programs and the order among 9.
This example is for the left softkey:
<characteristic type="HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="SK1TEXT" datatype="string" value="Calculatrice"/>
<parm name="SK1URL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\MobileCalculator.exe"/>
</ characteristic>
SK1TEXT is the text of the left softkey in all tables
SK1URL is the way to the program.
For 9 programs:
<characteristic type="HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CWelcomeCenter\Page1" translation="filesystem">
<parm name="ACTIONURL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\Hibernate.exe"/>
<parm name="TEXT2" datatype="string" value="Récupération of RAM"/>
<parm name="TITLETEXT" datatype="string" value="Mise in route"/>
<parm name="TEXT1" datatype="string" value="Hibernate"/>
<parm name="SK2TEXT" datatype="string" value="Hibernate"/>
<parm name="SK2URL" datatype="string" value="\Windows\Hibernate.exe"/>
</ characteristic>
ACTIONURL AND TEXT1, TEXT2 : command Tab
SK2URL AND SK2TEXT : command right softkey
So, I count on you a little to further improve ease of use of this new interface. Post your experience and if you find something else do not hesitate to share it.

Reserved for update

Oh, thanks a million. Very usefull guide.

Thanx chanvi 4 this tutorial.
It works perfect!

Thanks again Chanvi!
This is exactly what was missing for me with CHome ... and I had been trying very hard to do this with the launcher panel in TitanWeather but with little success.
Quick word of warning to other users though -> Edit the Provisioning XML before you go and import it!
(lol, at least read the thing before you import it and then come one here posting complaints )
In it's current state it is a great example of how to customise your "Programs" panel but I imagine most people are going to prefer to keep "Contacts" as their SK1 key (whereas this xml will change that to be Calculator ... on every panel)

Thanks the.decoy for the warning
A little change in 1rst post :
ACTIONURL AND TEXT1, TEXT2 : command Tab
SK2URL AND SK2TEXT : command right softkey
So you can have until 18 programs .

Works like a chrm for me.
3 quick questions :
> how to show on the picture panel, the photo in \storage card\my documents\my pictures ? by defaut it uses My picture in my device ...
> how to add a favourite contacts tab (that would be very useful and could make CHome at the level of M2D....) ?
> is it possible to add more than 9 favourite programs in such tab ?

I have been setting up the Programs panel, and I am trying to work out 2 things:
- What is the "ADC" page for? (i.e. why "ADC", not "page10"? can I just use any name? etc)
- Why is my "Page2" page no showing up?
I noticed that in the registry all of the other (visible) pages have two things under their reg entry:
(1) These two keys (although the PICTURES value ranges from 2500-2509)
"PICTURES"="2501"
"GUID"="{2F710F22-9F19-43fa-8F35-9927D246B078}"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(2) A sub folder called "0409" which seem to be remnants of the original WelcomeCenter panel. eg:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CWelcomeCenter\Page1\0409]
"TEXT2"="Set date and time"
"TITLETEXT"="Getting Started"
"TEXT1"="Clock"
"SK2TEXT"="View All"
"ACTIONURL"=":MSWelcomeCenter;\\Windows\\wc_setdatetime.0409.wcml"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
...
Actually, nevermind about "Page2", I just fixed that by manually creating the GUID and PICTURES keys myself (GUID is the same for all of them and I just gave it the PICTURES value of 2502).
Still curious what the deal is with "ADC" ...
Also trying to find if there is a way to set specific icon pics for each Page (instead that default one from the original WelcomeCenter pages).

"Re-import" mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs
Hi all.
One question:
After i import it once (the mxip_WWE_CHome_Programs file), i've made changes to the file (like switching some of the programs and the text that appears) and wanted to import the file a second time, but it gave me some error about the NETCFv35 (something like it had an error message avaiable for this exception but it was not possible to show).
My question is: How can i import the file, every time i make a change?
Thanks in advance.

I found that you can keep importing the provxml into AdvancedConfig over and over (whenever you make changes). No problems.

Well, i can't seem to import it for the second time... keeps popping the message...
Did you soft/hard reseted?
Nor reseting or disabling CHome works for me...
