I have two questions (stock Sprint TP2):
Is there anyway I can have the settings tab in the start menu go to the windows settings when I click it rather than have it go to the TF3D settings? Maybe a registry edit?
When you send text messages and you get the SMS sent notification, it pops up and it plays a sound, but the sound just stopped playing for me. Nothing was installed/changed to cause this and I've tried messing around with the sound settings, but it doesn't seem like there's anything that can enable/disable that sound, so I'm not sure what happened. Would I need to do something in the registry for this too?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It looks like that might be for 6.5? I'm on 6.1 and don't see a StartInfo under the Shell folder.
I have the same issue with my sound notification for sms, just stopped working, anyone know of any workarounds?

Great, never would have thought of that. Thx.
does anybody know if there is a hack to disable the popup that appears once a text message is sent? I really want to get rid of it
Thanks
I've found this
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Inbox/Settings/SMSNoSentMsg
to disable it but when I get to the Inbox section there is no Settings folder? All I have is SendDriver or Svc folders???
I have an Orbit with WM6 Black&Blue 4.3 ROM

You have to add the Settings key, and the SMSNoSentMsg DWORD.
Brilliant - sorted, thank you!
Hi guys,
I just picked up my MDA Vario V and noticed that some things seem to be missing compared to the normal TP2
-TF3D2 style notification bubbles
-New notification manager
-Facebook upload feature
-Option to disable the icon screen you get when clicking on the taskbar.
Is there a way to fix this through cabs, or do I need to wait for HardSPL to come out and flash a new rom?

This should get facebook working...
Do the following 3 reg edits...
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\
1. Facebook.Disable (Set the DWORD to 0)
2. Manila://people\browserlayer\peopleupdate.page.hidden (Set the DWORD to 0)
3. Manila://PeopleDetail\peopleView.page.hidden (Set the DWORD to 0)
Then do a soft reset of the device and it should work
Thanks for your help. But it does not work On the one hand now you can go on "Me" (contact card) and can see the facebook button at the bottom (it wasn't there before changing the registry settings). But by trying to start the "app" nothing happens. it's like a block..

What is it you're trying to start? When you are in "People", can you not go to "Updates" and link to a facebook profile?

I think so. I've got the german device, so I don't really know how the tabs are named on the english one. But I think I know what you mean. So I think normally you should have some kind of an "action" button for each contact where you can see the facebook status, etc.? I haven't got this tab. My tabs for each contact are: Details (with all numbers and adresses,etc); sms messaging, e-mail and phone history

I got the MDA Vario 5 as well. To my delight, it wasnt sim-locked.
So far, not much missing or added to the phones ROM by TMobile.
They have some Web n Walk stuff added as an 'Internet' tab and like the other guy mentioned, some notification stuff is missing.

Do you have this screen when in the contact...
Hi boys,
i don't have TP2, just TP1, but I am solving this problem too...i have a ported version of TF3D2 without facebook integration, but I was able to get it working.
I've attached all files that I needed for FB integration. Some files are hidden..
Copy only those manila files that are not included in your ROM.
Maybe the only needed file will be FacebookSDK.dll
copy all needed to \Windows\ folder...
hope I helped a bit
PS: you also have to make registry edit mentioned before.
nicelad_uk said:

No, I do not have this screen But after copying some files (incl. the FacebookSDK.dll) out of the fb.zip I got the following:
My own contact-card (screen2)
Contact-Card of a contact in "view-mode" (screen1) --> "Events-Tab" is missing
Contact-Card of a contact in "edit-mode" (screen3)
If I want to link a contact with a foto, I get screen4 --> After choosing "Facebook-Profil" I get the list with all my facebook contacts (screen5)
Edit: Sorry, the attached thumbnails aren't in the right order. So: "Screen2" is the first one, "Screen1" is the last, "Screen3" is the fourth, "Screen 4" is the third and "Screen5" is the second one.
I did not have any of these "facebook-links" in my TF3D-menus before.
Does anybody have an idea how to fix the problem with the events-tab ?

does anybody know how to activate the "progams-tab" in the slider?

I haven't seen this anywhere else on this forum, but is anyone else frustrated by the notification bar (top of screen) on the TP2?
On my kaiser I was used to being able to tap on each icon to take me directly into the relevant screen (e.g. Mail, calendar appointment, battery status, volume control or connections screen).
On the TP2 every icon just takes you into 'Notifications' and then you have to click again to go into mail or appointments, but there is no way to the battery, volume control or connections.
Is there any way of restoring the previous functionality of this bar?
Also - (unconnected) anyone know how to change the text colour on the Today screen?
Cheers,
Yup.... asking same question myself.
Get a registry editor, and find the key HKLM\Services\NOTIFICATIONMANAGER\Flags. It should be 0 by default - change it to 4. This stops the HTC notification manager running and restores the default WM functionality.

Works great. Thank you.
*edit* After hours of trying to find out why my text alerts (custom only) wouldn't ring. I changed the value back to "0" and my text alerts worked again. When I used the HTC stock text tones it would work, but not my custom ones. The phones ringtones and custom ringtones worked fine. Any ideas what would have caused the custom text tones not to work with this registry change?

If you are still having this problem, post the ROM version and the registry editor you are using and I can try to help you make the change to your registry key.
Thanks for the response
Rom version is: 1.19.61.3 (51489) WWE This is the standard Orange uk rom
For the registry editor i am using either Schaps registry editor on the phone or Mobile registry editor by Breaksoft on my pc.
Thanks in advance.
If you install the Topaz Notification Manager it gives you the battery status & an icon that'll bring you to the battery options.

Sorry, I am not familiar with that ROM. You can try using a different registry editor or just use the Topaz Notification Manager like xnifex suggested.

i changed my font size when i was texting someone and i don't know how i did it. it is now too small, and i want it a lil bigger. does anyone know how i can change the size in my text msgs?
also, i just got this phone. is htc going to send all pro2 users the update when oct comes around with the new system? or we **** out of luck?
thanks
1. Use the zoombar to change font size.
2. Yes, HTC will release WinMo 6.5 for TP2 users.

I assume you are talking about the default WinMo Messaging app? The zoombar works as a font-size changer in that app.
Why are you looking in menus for zoombar? The zoombar is the part of your device between the screen and the 4 hardware buttons.
Wow didn't know that.
Just to confirm it does work as a font size changer, but only when focus is on the text editing area at the bottom.
If focus is still in the previous threaded messages then the zoom bar works as a scroll bar.

i wasn't. you told me to look for zoombar. and i figure zooming had to be in the menu bar since thats how it is in alot of applications i use.
on a diff not, i tried to send a text msg like normal and hit the the 4 hardware buttons and it still does not change my font size. the reading pane window where old text msgs are is the area where i want to change the size.

Haha, dude, I think you're losing me.
What's your "normal" way to send a text message? There are several ways: (1) via compose new, (2) via TF3D, (3) via the threaded view of the WinMo Messaging app.
Why are you hitting the 4 hardware buttons to change font size? (Call send, Call end, Windows key, and Back key are not going to help)
What's this "reading pane window" you are referring to?
What I'm trying to say is a picture is worth a thousand words. Going forward, if you want help with troubleshooting, post a screenshot.
But for your case, try this. Go to "Settings" tab in TF3D, tap "All Settings", go to "System" tab, tap "Screen", go to "Text Size" tab, and adjust the setting here.

When a field is "in focus", that just means that it's active or that's where the cursor is. In fairness to HTC, I thought there manual was quite comprehensive. They've put just enough info to get someone who's not familiar with WinMo to be able to use the device.

Well, I don't think they're going to SEND it to you. I'm sure it will be available on you're carrier's site, presuming the carrier releases there version in October.
So I tried this official TMO romon my Wife's phone. It seems fine but there seems to be no way of getting to the normal winMo settings. When I click on the settings icon from the start menu, it takes me to the manilla settings.
Has anyone found a way to the normal windows settings where you have all the other settings, like the remove programs, and all of the others?
Also what really sucks about it is that you cant just move the icons around how I want in the start menu, I have either move to top or move to bottom.
thanks,
Jeff
Look for HTC settings in the start menu

Thanks, I did nit try that as I guess I assumed that it was more manilla specific, as it is HTC and all.
