New Start Menu - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Ok, I have been searching for a while now trying to figure out how to get my touch pro 2 start menu back to the original one. I have found many articles and information on it telling me to do:
Manilla StartMenu (Provided by LRC)
Code:
HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu
EnableManilaStartMenu = 1
(orginal TF3D startmenu) / 0(old WM startmenu)
Yet, this setting is defaulted to 0 on mine and I still have the new one. Does anyone have any other thoughts? I have tried changing it to 1 and nothing. I changed it back. I did do soft reset after changing it.

I think there's another regedit you need to do in addition to the one you've already done. Try doing the reverse of this pocketnow.com article and see if that works. But keep in mind that if you're using a cooked ROM, especially one with Manila 2.5, it's probably not been included by the chef.

Why not just use QuickMenu? It's better than the original Start Menu.

How to restore original dialer?

I have LSVW WM6 on my MDA Vario II and I was looking for T-Mobile tsk theme. I've installed some customization cab from T-Mobile's ExtROM, which set up a bunch of custom applications, but NO theme. :/ Also, it screwed up the dialer - it looks like **** now (there are little pink backgrounds around each dialer button).
Is there any chance to restore original WM6 dialer, or do I need to install a new one from scratch?
Look here, many choice of dialer.

Installing new skin (T-Mobile's) made things even worse, as PIN-pad became completely blank. Fortunately I was able to uninstall that skin.
However, I've found a solution. Registry key: HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin has two subkeys: DIALER and PROGRESS. I've renamed both of them, reset device and... voila. Original WM6 video-call-enabled skin is back!
Thanks!!!!
I lost the original dialer-background while testing some other.... now it's back

Any Traditional Chinese Handwrite Input function?
Thanks
As Ricky said, i would also like to thank jasjamming first...
now..
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Ricky. Your solution is the only one that works stably for reading chinese... again, thank you very much!
Hi Ricky
I just installed the rom, and I notice that the font size is funny. The default size for the menu item does not change even if i change it in the screen adjustment screen (Settings-> system -> Screen). This does not happen with your old rom...
Thanks!

HKFreak:
Sorry that I did not include any of the handwriting software this time, I was trying to create a cab file for the Handwriting, however, everytime I installed the cab file I made the touchscreen would stop function (need to use hard reset to fix).
I'll find a solution later on... (oh well... maybe it's time to try 3rd party inputs )
Slider5354:
Hi, I realised this problem too, it is due to a reg key for chinese to enable "line break" (not sure if you have seen this problem on the previous version or not), if you use PIE to visit chinese/japanese websites, the text would not break into lines properly.
Once I added change the reg key the line break problem solved.
what you can do is change the reg key back to english one, use the RegEdit problem in System, find the key called "SystemLCID", change the value from 404 to 409 and do a soft reset, should fix your problem
X01HT Installed and Working Well!
Well done Ricky, awesome job. I found the Japanese input pretty painful, as it didn't have the correct romaji option, instead the layout for a true Japanese keyboard, which the X01HT doesn't have.
I used Asukal's one (tried to upload, but no go) and that is exactly as it should be. You might look at replacing your's with that one.
I will let you know how it goes as I run it through its paces, but its looking impressive so far.
Now where's the Black 3.5 version
Thanks, got it!!
Sorry, got it, thanks
thanks to you and the original rom chef jj. would like to know is 簡易 input method included?

Thanks Ricky.. I notice text break problem too, and this happens even with regular English rom + CE-Star.. so I guess we can only choose no line breaks, or weird font size... :-\
I've been runing the ROM ever since it went up and haven't had to do a reset yet, whereas with the straight Black 3.01 with the hacks to get it using Japanese, I found myself resetting 5 or more times a day.
Thanks for a great stable release!
Is this rom built up from black 3.0 insted of 3.01?????
I found the Black 3.0 bug still on this ROM....
1) today theme cannot be changed(only Top/Under Bar can be changed)
2) symbol pad cannot be loaded.
how to use korean
I want use korea.
how can i use korea language.
The Voice Command button also disabled. Any idea how to enable it?
And is it possible to set the default input from '拼' to English? (For both keyboard and soft keypad) Thanks!
Ricky, can you post the Japanese SIP cab file on its own?
I'm trying to muck around with Black 3.5. and the Asukal one I've been using up until now doesn't want to work properly.
flashed this no prob. used it to replace 3des + CE Star, which was a very unstable combination.
this is working great. fine job Ricky, and also to whoever did black. Nice ROM. I love my phone again.
anyone know where there is a manual on the input methods. they take some getting used to after CEStar, a manual would help.

Really , just can't enable kansaku & tegaki. On 3.5 & all the new released roms.
Yes. All versions > 2.5 seemed not support SIP switching.
I guess some REGISTRY changed.
I switched to LVSW two weeks ago.
It works great!

HTC KeyTouch (Japanese) on Rhodium?

has anybody been able to get the Japanese KeyTouch SIP working on their Rhodium? i'm on an Asian WWE ROM and it's a no go for me. i've heard some people have gotten it working on theirs. can you please share what ROM it's working on and maybe how you got it working?
the program i'm referring to is included in Zgembo's Japanese Advanced IME
<<RESERVED>>
just because...
close but still no cigar.
i can get KeyTouch and emoji working temporarily on my Rhodium. On a fresh install, I first install Softbank MMS, then LetsJapan6 then restart.
After I restart, I install the Advanced IME but no restart after that.
If I do it that way, I can open up Softbank MMS and both English and Japanese prediction work, japanese input works, emoji works, and Japanese keytouch works. only english keypad is doesn't work correctly (outputs numbers only).
but this is temporary. after installing Enable_IME and restarting the system, none of the keyboards work properly anymore.
any help would be kindly appreciated.
i've finally gotten Keytouch working on my Rhodium! but I'm still running into a snag.
when the KeyTouch cab is installed, two of the registry changes it makes are:
Code:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409 > Ime File = compime.dll
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010411 > Ime File = M5ImeMgr.dll
however, after a soft reset, the e0010411 value doesn't stay M5ImeMgr.dll. Rather, after a soft reset, it changes to compime.dll.
it seems like a rather simple issue to resolve. after my rhodium boots up, i input "M5ImeMgr.dll" manually, but so far everytime i reset, it goes right back to "compime.dll". any suggestions?
further research has shown that the e0010411 is simply mimicking whatever values are entered for e0010409. does anyone have any idea why? how can i make these two have separate IMEs?
seems either no one cared, or no one else in japan with a touch pro 2 had this problem, but i think i've finally found a solution. in my previous post, i mentioned that after a soft reset, the e0010411 value doesn't stay M5ImeMgr.dll, but that instead, it changes to whatever value is in Ime File is entered for e0010409. the simple solution (although i don't fully know its ramifications yet) is to just delete the Ime File value of e0010409 altogether. once i deleted that, my "Ime File = M5ImeMgr.dll" value of e0010411 no longer changes with a soft reset.
i hope this will be useful to others in the future... feel free to post any questions in here
did the softbank version come with a qrcode reader and stuff like that? can i flash my sprint cdma with the softbank firmware and somehow get it working on sprint with japanese cell phone features? can it work with the pay by your cellphone feature on japanese trains? or vending machenes??
Now, that WOULD be a cool feature, if anybody knows. I have never heard of this feature on WM phones in Japan. Torou, did you find anything?
not really. and ワ is wa torowa

Advancd Config changes not applying

I just got a Tilt2. It still has the stock ROM. I know on this site that is darn near blasphemy but I haven't taken the time to rebuilt it yet .
My problem is this. I have loaded this version of Advanced Config:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3298924&postcount=454
I open it and make changes. Apply them and the program says to reboot. When it comes back up the changes are still in the program but it doesn't seem to have an effect.
An example being,in Adv Cfg 3.3 I have Suggested Words at 6 for input. Yet then I type I get no suggested words. I tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609202 as well and it didnt have any effects.
Any ideas whey this may be occuring. Thanks!
Edit: I saw this file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3973249&postcount=1 (TP2 unlock for stock ROMS). I have applied it and still there aren't any changes being made.
For word suggest try this...
This is what I did to get word suggest to work on my Tilt2
Set the suggest words at 4 in HDtweak
Did the following Registry changes:
Go to: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\layouts\e001 0409
Edit: Ime File = \Windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = COMP IME
Go to: HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9
Edit: XT9SupportMSSip= 0
It works very well now. I dont think that just changing it in Schapps is enouigh. I think you need to do the registry edits as well.

Setting (Tweaking) Tools for TP2 with WM6.5

Dear all, I'm pretty new to this forum and to HTC, TP2 is my first smartphone of the kind as I am coming from the Nokia environment, therefore I need your help.
I've been reading on different forums about various setting tools for tweaking the OS like Advanced Configuration Tool, Rhodium Settings Tool, HD Tweak 0.5.4_English.cab. It seems that all of them require to have the .NetCF previously installed on the TP2. So far so good.
And now the questions for TP2 with WM6.5:
1. Is it safe to install the .NetCF? Any problems reported?
2. Are these tools safe to install? Any problems reported?
3. Which of these tools seems to be more versatile and create less problems?
Currently I am interested in using such a tweaking tool for discontinuing the sms threaded view, but I am sure that there are many other places where I will find it very useful.
Looking forward for your qualified answers. Thanks a lot.
P.S. It is quite confusing to go along tenth of posts where the owner doesn't mention his OS, i.e. whether he refers to wm6.1. or 6.5 when reporting his problems.
You can disable threading through the settings. Start > Settings > System > Text Messageing. Change from threaded to classic.
.NetCF is safe as far as I'm aware and used for quite a few programs, so you will want to install it. As far as those config tools, unless you will be changing registries, tweaking your phone, or modifying the icons it will be trivial to install. Most of the time you will use .CABs that already have everything changed.

Hi burtonsnow8, thank you for the hints about the tweaking tools.
Unfortunately on my wm6.5 there is no Text messaging icon neither in System, nor someplace else. That is why I asked about the tweaking tools. Are you running wm6.1?

How do I know which Sense version I have? I'm using SPB MobileShell with HTC Sense deactivated. To find the version I have reactivated HTC Sense but at no avail.
Anyway, I did not find Other (Miscellaneous settings) icon in Settings or someplace else.

Hi again, I installed the Advanced Configuration Tool (after installing first the .NET Compact framework 3.5) and I finally managed to disconnect the sms threaded view. Hope that no other drawbacks will show up. Thanks for the support.
.NET Compact framework 3.5 is something you should always install. It's basically a new "engine" for Windows Mobile, and yes it's from Microsoft and 100% safe. If anything it allows your device to operate a bit smoother. Now, the only thing it doesn't do when installing, is actually activating it over the old .net 2.0.
This is NOT necessary by any means, apps which need 3.5 will work without this, but I do it anyway:
Get a registry editing tool (I use Total Commander myself).
Browse to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NETCompactFramework (this is usually the first entry).
When you open this you'll see all the .NET installed versions, change the DWORD value of 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0.
Change the DWORD value of 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1.
Reboot.
You have a faster PPC.
Doing this you disable the old 2.0 framework and enable the new 3.5.

Thanks for the advice mhurg!
I had no idea if the upgrade to wm6.5 included the 2.0 framework, certainly it was not shown in the Programs folder or in Settings/System/Remove programs, while after installation the new 3.5 is. So where should I have looked for the 2.0?
Of course I want a faster ppc, but after installing the 3.5 will I get that if performing now the steps you described?
Thanks.
glad to help as im also a newbie

Yeah that is kinda weird. I changed that reg key once I saw that the other day, but the truth is I'd never had any .net-related issues ever since first installing 3.5 back when I first got the phone...I get the feeling that any app or process that needs 3.5 is able to access those dll's even if the switch above isn't made.
