can you make the touchscreen more sensative? - P3300, MDA Compact III General

hi, i just want to ask a quick question, can you make the screen more sensative with a quick tweek of the registry?
mine sometimes just does not work and i have to really tap the screen to get it to work, its bad on texting as i have to keeo going back and having to respell stuff.
anyone got any ideas??

Sensitivity
You sure can change the sensitivity of the touchscreen. I've changed the sensitivity of the touchscreen by editing the register. Unfortunately at the moment i do not know which register key you should edit.

thats a start, i didnt think you could but thought to ask the question anyway, does anyone know any reg keys that you need to change to do this??
would be a huge help,

Hi Joey,
Isn't it this key:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms894765.aspx
Cheers, Peter

nope, that's not it.
HKLM\Drivers\TouchPanel\PressureThreshold
higher value = more sensitive

Screen sensitivity - what values
Hi
I have Orbit (touch cruise) with Artemis Touch v4.02 ROM, with touchflo
This ROM has a program in settings called 'advanced config'.
Many settings can be done here without going into registry - including sensitivity.
However I have a question
After installation the setting was at about 7000 - I have tried mutliple settings between 2000 and 7000 but none seem to have much change.
My main problem is scrolling the address book. It is hopeless compared to the iPhone.
Nearly every attempt to scroll opens a contact at some stage in the scroll. Solution is to drag up left or right side of screen to appropriate letter eg 'B' then slowly drag to eg 'Bill'
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks ColinK

Samsung i780 cannot dismiss the ALS Notification

Hi every one and thanks in advance for your help.
On my Samsung i780, there is no way to accept/dismiss the ALS (automatic Line Selection) and this message takes the use of the left soft key rendering useless on the today screen.
I have tried the soft key software and the Shaps advance customisation but the notification message stay on always...
I would try to attach 2 pictures so everybody can have a better idea of my problem. I have make a GREEN CIRCLE pointing to the problem.
Any ideas / solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
I am having the same problem with I780PUHB3 phone ROM and russian Beeline SIM card. I figured out it depends on SIM card, so you may be lucky asking your carrier for a neew SIM card.
i had the same problem.. but when i install RealVGA, the icon is not in the taskbar anymore, and the left softkey is usable now, maybe is a problem with a space in the screen
I have/had the same problem, but unfortunately there seem to be no solution but to change the sim.
I tried it with two "3"-simcards in Austria: The new one seemingly doesn't have a second line.
remove it from registry
To make the notification disappear, remove the 2 entries under the following registry.
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell\Notifications\Active
REMEMBER to back up the registry first. But everytime u get phone service again u need to do the above again.
Anyway, hope this helps.

Make changes in registry as follows:
[\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
Enabled=0
Is there any way to keep the indicator at the top of the screen but suppress the notification message in the bottom left?
I'd like to know which line I currently have selected but don't want to lose the use of the left soft key.
The first registry change in this thread only works until you turn the phone on and off again which is unhelpful.
The second registry change in this thread gets rid of the indicator on the top bar - thus getting rid of the notification message - but that's not quite what I want to do.
As far as i know there is no way of doing what you want, we went through this a while back when i asked the question ages ago and i dont think it has been sorted yet.
Basically the samsung dialer skin brings the line 2 functionality, it is either a choice of using that skin with the line 2 and the annoying notification, or using the standard dialer without.
Its a tough call, i went for the second option. If i ever work it out i will be sure to let you know.
I would love a further fix for this. The problem with the fix below is that I cannot use a skin for the dialer and I much prefer some of the more finger friendly dialers...
[\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
Enabled=0
So any further ideas?
Hello people,
Has anyone solved this problem?
Thanks in advance

works on my i780 (heineken v.2.1 ROM) thx

how do i do it?

hi there i'd like to make some changes to my HD and i don't know how to do it or if it's even possible. so i want to ask u, maybe someone will help me
1. is there any way to disable or turn off the slider to aswer a call? i want to pick up a call only using soft keys
2. is it possible to change the album? i like the one on diamond 2 or pro 2. is it possible to install some features from diamond2? the callendar is better as well.
3. i found this opera tweak http://www.noeman.org/gsm/pocket-pc-smartphone-zone/76285-improve-wi-fi-speed-tested-htc-touch-pro-amd-touch-hd.html
now my question is if i can increase the number to 12 or 16 for even better speed or it will not work properly with higher number?
4. can i uninstall preinstalled programs? like games, calculator, internet explorer ect.
5. how can i put the S2U lock on the home screen so i could lock the phone with only one finger press. there is a "phone" shortcut on the left and "programs" on right, so maybe i could replace programs for S2U? i tried to change it but can't find the settings:/
i thinks that's it for now hope someone can help me. thanks in advance

it's in registry/HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila, you edit the HomeLSKPath for left and HomeRSKPath for right, also Text for what you want it to say
now, what exactly do you need to write to get s2u2, i don't know....would love to, great idea
1. I think you should completely disable touchflo3d's phonepad in favor of the default windows mobile one. You can do this by installing hdtweak and checking the appropriate option. I don't guarantee this because i haven't tried it anyway...
2. to have topaz/rhodium stuff you must flash a custom ROM (same goes for album). goto blackstone rom development subforum and you will find informations aplenty. Be warned that flashing a custom rom will void your guarranty and MIGHT brick your device (very very rare possibility, i don't think that in this forum not one single hd was bricked).
3. the link to that "opera tweak" as you call it refers to a hack to enable 54mbps wi-fi. it is not a opera tweak but a hardware/driver tweak. Increasing to higher numbers simply should not work and even MIGHT be damaging the phone's wi-fi receiver
4. no unfortunately not, preinstalled program are rom-dependant and rom files are protected and uninstallable. Again, flashing a custom rom that fits your needs is the way to go
5. as said fellow suisen, but you can also simply switch off the screen with the power button on top, when waking up it will be locked

Word auto complete not working

Hey everyone,
I cant seem to work out how to get auto complete to work when using the hardware keyboard.
It worked on my TYTN II and i really liked the feature as i am entering service log numbers and i dont have to look at my book each time to see what the next number is.
Any ideas how to get this going>
I have set in advanced config for word suggestion to 4 (it was on 0) and in input options > options > xt9 settings > i ticked word completion in abc mode (for phone keypad only) and its not coming up.
I have soft reset the phone as well.
Have tried searching but havnt found much.
Cheers
dude u have to search for enabling old type completion.. I did it...and it works... before that I had the same problem - here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4049651#post4049651
Thanks for that!
Found it, and now im happy
Here is the fix incase anyone else wanted this.

IMPORTANT: previously be sure that HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0.
Simply change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File : \windows\xt9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : XT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.

This is my first post, so please forgive me if the answer has already been provided somewhere else.
I have a TP2 purchased in Hong Kong that has the Chinese Fonts built into the ROM. The ROM version is 1.19.721.1 (51489) WWE.
I have checked in the registry and there is no HKLM\Software\Tegic entry.
The other keys are
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : COMP IME
Word completion using the onscreen keyboard and/or hardware keyboard does not work.
There is no normal keyboard available for selection, only the Touch Input
Could anyone advise how to fix this?
Thanks in advance, Gary
this should do it

Just wondering if anyone has faced the qwerty keyboard changed to a funny number key pad that has only 2 alphabet p and w in it? I am wondering if it is because of this tweak that is causing it. It will change without new software installation after a few days of usage. It has happened to me in 3-4 occasions already.
Only way to overcome it is for me to restore to previous backup. After a few days, same thing would happen and again I have to restore. So frustrating!

Yea it happens to me to!
Changing the reg keys back fixes it but then i loose auto complete... stupid bloody HTC, why couldnt they just make it all work!!!
I seem to get the proper keyboard in my text messages though, and everywhere else the numbers :S
Hmm.... seems that this tweak is causing the keyboard problem then?
I really dont want to lose the auto-complete feature.
i wish one of the smarter members of the community could work it out!
Same problem here! And it's very frustrating to be trying to type words and have numbers appear... please help! I did the registry edit and am having number appear when I press letters on the keyboard......

Normally, all you have to do to enable the word completion on the hardware keyboard is to pop up the SIP keyboard and tick the box at the left of the keyboard from "ABC" to "XT9," then simply slide out the hardware keyboard. It works for me every time.

In search of tweaks...

Please, can anyone help?
I just recieved a new Verizon Touch Pro 2 and am trying to find the tweaks to set it up the way I would like. Frankly, I have spent hours looking and have not been able to find everything. Yes, this is cheesy and weak, but I am just burned out.
I am looking for some help on how to:
1. Change the 'Start' menu to use small fonts and work more like the standard Start menu (I do not use the Touchflo interface)
2. Disable word complete when using the keyboard. My ham hands keep messing things up.
3. Unlock the top of the screen so touching the battery icon takes me to power settings, touching the connection icon will let me disconnect data or start the connection manager and touching the volumn will bring up a volumn control. I really dislike having that area just open notifications.
4. Is there some decent, free theme generator out there? I was pretty happy with the one I had on the Omnia 1, but the TP2 seems to be pretty locked down for Touchflo.
I am sure there are more things, but hopefully getting these key things accomplished will remotivate me to try and go and find everything else myself.
Thanks in advance!
Maybe if I am feeling up to it this weekend I will play with my old Samsung and see what use I can make of it. Until I brick it, most likely. I am thinking about learning to create my own ROMS, and seeing if I can create one with no phone functionality at all. Useless? Probably. But something ingteresting to do on these long winter weekends.
1. TF3D2 Tweak. This has this option. (Pretty sure that's the right link, if it isn't then Google is your friend)
2. When your is displayed, mid-left there is XT9 and ABC, make sure that ABC is highlighted.
The others I'm not too sure about. Let me know if this helps.
3. go to HKLM\Services\NotificationManager\ in your registry.
Change the "flags" entry to 4 instead of 0, and it should go back to the default windows mobile notifications (any value other than 0 worked for me to switch back to the old style, but I saw another post that suggested "4").
I would also like to apply that change to unlock the top bar but am getting an "Access Denied" message when I attempt to change it.. Using mobregedit to do it.. what should I do?

Touch Pro 2 - Auto Complete? Spell Check?

I recently upgraded from a T-Mobile Wing to the T-Mobile TP2, and for the most part I am really appreciating the improvements in hardware and software.
One thing that is bugging me, though, is that when texting or writing an email on my Wing I would be offered a list of possible words after typing the first few characters. I could select one with the arrow keys, and then press space to accept. This made typing out messages much faster. Also, it would auto-correct certain words - like changing "i' to "I", or "adn" to "and".
I can't seem to find a place to turn these features on in my TP2.
It originally came with WM 6.1, but I have since upgraded with the official WM 6.5.
Any ideas?
Edit:
I should also mention that I am talking about using the hardware keyboard. I am aware that you can bring up the on-screen keyboard, select XT9, and close the on-screen keyboard - and then you will have word completion functionality, but the setting does not seem to be persistent.
Thanks!
It should work, just open up the keyboard in landscape mode and click the same XT9 key. If not go search for a registry change to have it default to that setting.

My point was kind of that I don't want to open the on-screen keyboard and select XT9. It becomes pretty unwieldy to add those steps every time I slide out the keyboard.
I was hoping that someone could point me to an option setting that I hadn't stumbled across.
It seems an odd bit of functionality to have been removed from the OS, so I was hoping that it was there, but not enabled - make sense?
Thanks for the tip, though

On my phone it was saving XT9 as the default for messages, even after a soft reset. I'm running Mighty Mike's 6.5 sense 2.1. Here is a possible solution (post 7):

Thanks,
My phone is not saving XT9 as a default at all. As soon as I open a new message it is back to ABC mode. I checked the setting in the link that you shared, but mine was already turned on. Seems to make no difference to the hardware keyboard.
Thanks again
