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

The zip contains a reg file only, simply import it with any reg tool, the scrolling function works.

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,
Rick
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?

Hey all,
Can somebody confirm that they have had the Uni working with the AKU_3.2 VGA files in the ftp site and jwright's 3.2 ROM?
I've been running the i-mate default ROM on VGA for almost a year now and decided to switch over to the new 3.2 ROM a few days ago. I don't use ozVGA but use the registry hack straight up with the VGA files and VGA system apps.
But for some reason, I can't get all my icons displaying. I've run sdkcerts countless times, hit the power button waiting for 5 seconds before soft resetting, done multiple reboots changing up the order of sdkcerts and vga file copying... I just can't seem to get it to display all the icons correctly.
I know that I'm missing my volume and my cel reception indicator on the top bar at the very least. I CAN see my wifi icons, clock and magic button icons. On another post I found somebody whose screenshot matched mine and the suggestion was to install the AKU_3.2 VGA files again. I've done that alot.
Any ideas would be appreciated. The Uni is significantly better at VGA.
Thanks.
Hmmmm, something strange is definitely going on... I've installed the original ozVGA cab now and even that has not worked. Same problem, it's not loading the top bar icons.... just like if I had not installed those 96dpi resource files into the Windows directory.
Can anybody confirm or deny that ozVGA works with the AKU 3.2 rom?
And mvrTrueVGA is the winner. Why it seemed to work and the other didn't is beyond me...
So I've compared all the files that mvrTrueVGA installs to the VGA files that are supplied in the AKU_2 zip. Essentially, they are all different (which honestly doesn't say much) but there are some interesting additions.
There are new files.
mismde.96.dll
trares0407.96.dll
Plus two interesting things. First off, I was using Total commander to search for all files that were *.96.*
It found two other files which had some interesting properties...
rires.96.dll -- this file I can see on my pocket pc but can't see it through activesync explorer
shellresapps.96.dll -- this file I can't copy from the PPC to look at it. Activesync complains that it cannot convert it.
Just some interesting info in my investigations.
Hi,
I wanted to try out VGA myself. Would it be too much to ask for a step by step instruction list for "beginers"? Attached files would also make it wonderful.
Thanks very much.
Me too wanna try vga with AKU 3.2 if it's totally safe .
www.jaml.com/MvRTrueVGA/
seems safe to me.
Been using it for a while.this is literally just a cab install, it even puts a toggle link in start>programs

[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.

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.

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.

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.
Ok, I decided to write new thread because most of the rom makers I pm to didn't answer me at all. Some kind of secrets or whatever. I think we should help each other to improve our ROM's but maybe I'm wrong.
I have some issues in my owe ROM which I can't really fix. Maybe someone will know the solution
1. Some ROM makers wrote in their changelogs that now CommMgr is really closing without being on the process list all the time? How?
2. I'm using EZinput keyboard 2.0.33633 full qwerty and two keyboards should be available: full qwerty and phone keyboard. Only the first one is present in the system (the second one now is standard MS keyboard instead of phone keyboard 2.0 EZinput). Why? I changed the EXT package many times to make sure it's ok and all the time the same issue...
3. Is there a working method to change system rings to wav? Every time I do it then they doesn't work. Do I have to change also some registry value?
4. Windows Media Player dosen't play any videos. I changed mHub and mHubVO into some other versions but still no efect. What else could be the reason?
That's all what I'd love to know to make my ROM better
Thanks in advice!
Ok, I see that non of the grate, admired here rom makers are going to help me. Sweet. Anyway... I made a little step ahead with problem no2.
I know how to manually switch between those keyboards using registry entries [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ezsip]
CurrentSIP set to a00 is Phone Keypad and d00 for fullQWERTY. But still it's impossible to change it in menu (WM6.5 21725)
That's all I want to share with, maybe it will help someone. Should I expect some respond? I don't think so :]

Dude, about the comm manager, I don't know which version of comm manager are u using. But I got my comm manager working good n closing when clicked on x button. All I can say is don't use any new version like 2.8 or topaz comm manager. Use the 2.7.1.4 version. It's OG diamond comm manager n works nice. I'm using the same version.
Thanks buddy Actually I'm using 2.8.1. I will switch to 2.7.1.4 as u said.
The keyboard is still my biggest problem. I wonder what's wrong that I cannot switch between Full qwerty and phone keypad in the sip menu bar.

nope its not only that, u definitly need the touchflo package, but that package conlicts with wm 6.5

Exept of registry, is there any dll library or something responsible for that? Also when I'm in windows file explorere and want to copy the file from IS to main memory (I do tap on "Copy")and then tap on the menu to choose the location then it crashed.
Any ideas for soulution those two problems?
PS. One more thing I forgot... I used to have my clock and calendar to set up automaticly the date and time after HR but now it seems to be gone... Is it up to network type currently using? GPRS/3G? Or maybe some registry value?

Thanks dude but it doesn't work. I was trying with both, 0 and 1 to make sure but still no effect. Friend of mine checked some others 6.5 ROM's and it seems that it doesn't work in any of them.
I found out that automatic time and date set works only if 3G/SHDPA network is available. So this question is out of date.
If anyone find the solution with face down mute ring then please let me know.
Another issue that I was hoping to solve is contact list popping up every time after SR. So in titanium softkeys registry I changed SK1URL into HTCActionScreen. And now... HTCActionScreen popping up every time after SR. Any solution for that?
Do images rotate on turning the device without opening the keyboard? like on HD or Diamond? Because in my TP2, images do not rotate on turning the device as it is supposed to due to g-sensor .... isn't it? Does it have to be activated somehow or is it not possible in TP2 ... which will be strange.

by default rotation with gyro does not work on Rhodium.
You can use gyrator2 if you wish to enable this functionality.

I have the same problem. Screen rotates in opera, but not in Album.
same here, and gyrator is not the perfectly program for this... its slow, and it isn't integrated with WM after install. its just a stand-alone app what runs as the same way as other programs (you can also close it by taskmanager).
Also taksmanager doenst close programs by clicking [X] ?? (even when i select it)...
Attached regisry that will enable a lot of programs in G-sensor.
You also can edit by notepad to remove program that you are not like.
Well found! Very Handy

What programs do you suggest to be rotating without the screen sliding out and what programs do you think shouldn't flip to landscape because it gets annoying?

The same question could be applied to many things HTC have done with the Rom on the Rhodium.
At the end of the day, do what we do best here, add the functionality that you want, then fix any problems that occur afterwards.
I haven't noticed any adverse affects using gyrator, as yet anyway.

how do you add this file to the reg for us newbs please
thanks for any help
Doesn't it automatically display the picture at the maximum size? Meaning if it is a landscape picture it displays it in landscape and if it is a portrait picture it displays it in portrait? I actually prefer the way it is done in the new album which I am running on my FUZE.

Could someone help me out with the TomTom reg key? I get the modulename bit right, just point it to tomtomnavigator.exe. Don't really understand the whitelist key. What should the value be for Tomtom?
Thanks.
EDIT: Just found it in the topaz section. For anyone wlse who needs to know, it is "MunichWinClass" for some reason. Thanks to infoman68 for that.
Awsome thread I downloaded and installed the gyrator2, but I cannot figure out what plugin/program to grab from microsoft to install that dotnet 3.5 on the phone to get gyrator to work. can someone please point me to the correct file?
thanks.
to anyone else wishing to add an app to HTCs GSensor list in the reg and not knowing the window title or class...
download Gyrator2, install and run. Add a new event. Choose learn. Take stylus out. Make active the window you need the name of. Insert stylus. There! Gyrator has just told ya what ya need to know... Uninstall gyrator and add what it told ya to the reg...
nice post dude...
i am still trying to get the gyrator to work on my pro2.
did you also have issues with the dotnet thing?
Hello, brilliant suggestion from bigjezza. Myself I'm trying to get Microsoft Reader to react to my phone's gyrations. However when I bring up Gyrator 2 the MS Reader app is not listed. Actually it never came up in my program-list in the first place even though it did install and runs perfectly. Had to stick a shortcut in the Windows/Start-menu.
Any suggestion on how to get MsReader onto Garator's list, or does anyone know what the relevant data is for MsReader just like that?
Many thanks/McHan

I did install the .reg, then looked my self the new strings in the registry and everything looked OK, but the images on Album still do not respond to device rotation... Any other solution? Or it is need to activate or deactivate something else?

The Opera browser does it automatically. For everything else, practically every TP2 owner has installed 'Gyrator 2' or 'screenChanger' (my favourite), which are free apps utilising the G-Sensor. They run pretty much silently and allow you to configure which programs you want to rotate etc.
Get the TP2 - You know you want to.
Yes. But only by sliding out the keyboard. You can use the G sensor, but then you have to adjust the registry.
Theres a reg hack to enable the change orientation function to be shown in the screen to change button assignments. So you can set when you hold down the send button it changes to landscape mode. And you don't have to pull out the keyboard!
I can't remember what it was mind.. but it's on these forums somewhere.
thank you all.
thank you brynweb for those programs.
thank you quarintus.
andrewrees: if you remember the post, please tell me.
thanks a lot
i have tried Gyrator, and the problem i´ve seen is that the program must be running if you want to rotate screen.
correct or im wrong?
you dont need to use any program
there is a reg hack on here to allow it to tilt auto in things like calender etc etc

I did the reg that doesnt need any program running and it works great. With a bit of modding I got it to do TomTom, too.
TomTom on PDA is OK, but it still doesnt have text to speach for spoken street names.

changeScreen does a better job of hiding itself than Gyrator. One day I'll use the reg hack, but I'm still in the tinkering stage where I can't make up my mind about what programs I want to rotate, so it's easier for me to use the program option right now.

That is correct. However, mine starts itself at startup and you can tell it to minimise when it starts, so you don't need to worry about starting it up all the time. It also doesn't use much memory, so you don't need to worry about that either.
