JOGGR Config Utility

Silence Ringer
Hmmm, anyone know how to silence the ringer when a call comes in and you just want to "shut the phone up" without declining the call? With my Wizard you can just hit the volume slider, and it'll make the ringer go off.
Thanks for your help in advance.

i don't have mine yet, but did you try the joggr when the call comes in?

Yep tried that.. Even put the JOGGR in volume only mode, and that didn't shut it up either... I know on a lot of other phones you tap the power button to shut it up, but no button's will do it.
I'll keep trying..

Argh, I've still not had any luck in finding a way to shut it up when a call comes in.. *sigh*

I don't think there is a feature to do what you want. Ignore or the end button send it directly to vm as you no doubt have figured out already.

I can touch the volume strip on the dash and it mutes the phone call.
I know, not very helpful, but thought i'd let you know.

Look in the registry around:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\JogBar\Settings\
There's a key there called EnableRingVolumeMute
If there isn't, try creating it and setting it to 1. Mine seems to mute the call fine with that setting.

Ringer silencing on Dash
Hitting the "reduce volume" slider on my dash silences the ringer -- no registry hacks needed. Don't know if this works on HTC unit...

El Perfecto!!!!!!! The registry hack worked on the S620.. Apparently it comes with EnableRingVolumeMute set to 0.
Muchas thanks!
This needs to go in a FAQ.

Change JOGGR Outlook key to something else?
Has anyone figured out how to change the JOGGR's launch outlook button (bottom button) to launch something else, say, FlexMail? Even though I have FlexMail set as the default mail program, it still launches Outlook...any ideas?
I hate Outlook email (it does not work well with IMAP, like, it won't delete things unless you resync it manually. Painful!)

Never mind...
Got this from www.smartphonethoughts.com just now:
Well that sure didn't take long. Just 1 day after the Dash hit the streets, akil, staulkor, and some others over at Howard Forums has found a way to change the functionality of the volume jogger on the Dash to include scrolling and launching programs. You'll need to modify the registry to get this to work. So, make sure you back things up before making any changes. Here are the changes you need to make to get this working.
To Enable Scrolling:
• HKCU\ControlPanel\JogBar\Settings\SwitchToAudioFunc = 0
Tap on Bottom Key Launches IE Mobile:
• HKCU\ControlPanel\JogBar\Settings\BottomKeyApplicationName = \Windows\iexplore.exe
Tap on Top Key Performs Back
• HKCU\ControlPanel\JobBar\Settings\TopKeyApplicationName = BACK
You can replace any these with your favourite applications. Other common applications would be START (to Launch the Start menu), \Windows\tmail.exe to launch Outlook Mobile, or http://www.SmartphoneThoughts.com to launch IE Mobile with your favourite website Wink Let us know how you make out!

Here is a utility I wrote that will let you change almost all of the JOGGR settings on the phone. It will also let you change the apps that launch when you press the Camera key and the T-Zones key. The app shortcuts must be in the shortcut file format because I didn't know enough about the Windows CE LNK format to simply let you pick an EXE.
I am going to add support to let you change the apps that launch from the JOGGR bar, but wanted to get this version out now so you don't have to dig through the registry to get scrolling working.
It requires the .NET CF 2.0 or higher.

Sweet, good job! Will give it a shot.
This would be a good base for a simple DASH/S620 tweak util.. 'Cause there's a couple good tweaks out there as well.

Is there a way to do this on the Dash without having the touch strip/jogger enabled. So basically all I want it to do is silince the ringer.

which compact framework .net am I to install? I tried installing the ARM versions but they refused to install on the Dash.

The version for the ARMV4I is the correct one. Try the installer at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0c1b0a88-59e2-4eba-a70e-4cd851c5fcc4&DisplayLang=en. That link will take you to the .NET CF 2 SP1 MSI file.

Works like a charm. Very nice job

I have .NET CF 2.0 spk1 with a T-Mobile DASH.

What doesn't it do? Does it even run?

Basically when I run it it gives an Error.
An unexpected error has occurred in the DashConfig.exe
Select Quit and then restart this program or select Details for more information.
When I hit details:
UnauthorizedAccessException
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError()
blah blah blah.. basically a whole lot of errors
I would love for this to work..

I always have Today screen after turn-on PDA

Hello,
I have a problem with my Hermes. Always, after I turn on my PDA, it go direct to "Today" screen. That means that if I have one program open, I turn off PDA, and then turn on again, instead of have this program open, I get "Today", and I need to use a "task manager" or similar for change to the original program .
Anybody can help me?
Thanks!
Sesaru
UPDATE: From samw52000:
This is a retarded WM6 feature that is enabled as soon as you have a password set for the device.
Remove the password, apps will stay open when the device is powered back on.​
Is there any way to fix it without removing the password? I need the password!

Sesaru,
Can you explain a bit more what you mean? When you switch on the Hermes it does go to the today screen after the boot screens as its default behaviour. Not sure what you believe the problem is.
WB

You need the software X-Button
It adds a little icon on top-left corner of your screen.
When you click on it, it shows all the programs that are running, you can click on whichever one you want to bring it back up to your front screen.
It is similar to ALT-TAB on a PC.

I had nothing but poor performance out of X-button.
handy switcher is a better app and much cleaner way of doing it.

Hello;
I'll try again (I made the post at 3AM).
The problem is: I'm using the PDA in anyway (File Explorer, Office, etc); imagine that I'm using Pocket Word. Then, I wait sometime without touching any button or I push on/off button --> the PDA turn off (normal )
After that, I press on/off button (and then, the PDA turn on). The normal behaviour (I think) is to have open in my screen the last application I was using (Pocket Word), so then I can continue working directly... but the PDA always change to "Today" screen. So I have to use X-Button (or similar) to switch to the app I was using. And that is quite annoying ...
I hope I could explain better myself.
Thanks!

Go to SETTINGS, then TODAY. Click on the ITEMS tab at the bottom.
Is "Today timeout:" checked? What does it have in the drop down box?

This is a retarded WM6 feature that is enabled as soon as you have a password set for the device.
Remove the password, apps will stay open when the device is powered back on.
If not then you're SOL (just like me).

that´s sounds really bad or not?

S2P...Will it work on Dash?

Hey guys, Ok I know that S2u2 and S2P are intended for touch screens. However, I was able to get S2u2 to work perfectly with a few minor registry changes. I would like to use S2P (another one of A_C programs), but I have not been able to get it to work. I am using version .40 and have found no registry keys that can help. Does anyone have any ideas? It looks like a cool program to incorportate with S2u2. Thanks for the advise.

How did you get s2u2 to work exactly, can you share which version you used and the reg settings? If i can get that going, I'll try to help you with the s2p.

The version of S2u2 is v1.01. When I first installed it it seemed to work but the default setting is to shut the phone off after 30 seconds of being locked so I changed that setting
hkey current user\ Software\ A_C\ S2u2\ OffLCD=17
OffLCD should be 0
THe other settings are just cosmetic. I changed the clock setting to "h" instead of "HH" so it wouldnt show military time. And I changed the file path in hkey current user\ Software\ A_C\ S2u2\ wallpaper to point to .gif files for animated wallpaper.
Thanks a bunch for the help. I really like the look of s2u2 and I think that you will to.

I also got S2U2 to work. The only problem,,,, and this is a BIG problem for me, is that the S2U2 "screensaver" would not stay on infinitely for me. If i had the phone setting there for a while and "woke up" the screen i saw that the s2U2's program was not running in the foreground and showed me the default homescreen. It was still running, however, in the background since i saw it in task manager. If i clicked on it again in task manager, the program started right back up. I'm not sure if this is a conflict of another program ( like smarttoolkit, or the weather app, or photo contacts pro) or if it's because it wasn't made for smartphones. I would love to get a fully ported version for WM 6.1 standard though.

I am still running 6.0. This could be why I have had a different result with
S2u2.

why don't u guys post what others ppc apps that works on dash??

I tried the s2u2 v 1.05 and my phone doesn't like it, maybe i had the settings wrong. I installed and then tried to run ilock, and got error. I could run s2u2 and start the lock manually though. Once i locked it, if i pressed any key, the display would light up. If i was on battery power and pressed the center key to wake it up, then the display would not come on at all , but my keypad lights would and it would lock up my phone and get stuck like that until i removed the battery. I thought I disabled it, but then I got a phone call and the slide to answer screen came up(without the slide though) and then i couldn't unlock the phone and had to pull the battery again. I finally uninstalled. Is there some reg settings that are mandatory to get it to work or is it just that buggy on smartphones?

The only reg change thats manditor is the offlcd=0. I am using V1.01. I wonder if that could be part of the issue. It never did that for me but I am on the old 6.0.

yeah, I did the offlcd=0, because without it when I manually ran it, it turned power completely off, like you said earlier. I couldn't find the 1.01 version.

pm me...i have 1.01 if you want it

Ok, got 101, now no more glitches, so it was problems caused by 1.05. But s2p doesn't seem to have a chance without dpad controls available. On the s2u2, how come it doesn't autoset when display turns off? Is there a reg setting for this? And is it just me, or is the display supposed to light up whenever a key is pressed. I still have to unlock for the key to work, but I can't have the display turning on whenever I accidentally touch a key.

Reminder snooze setting

On my wizard, with wm 6.1, I was able to select a number of different snooze lengths.
Now with my tp2 when I get a reminder all it says is snooze, and apparently for only 5 minutes! Aggravating.
Any way to get the old snooze options?
Thanks

REminder Snooze setting
Did you get this resolved?
If so how did you do it.
Thanks

No, I didn't. Wish someone had advice... very annoying. I need this for how I use reminders....
Thanks

Agreed. This is extremely inconvenient because I use my alarm to wake me up in the morning. Being the lazy bag that I am, I prefer to get a snooze or two in before I actually get up. I would usually do 10 minutes as it takes me approximately 4 minutes to get back to sleep.
Snoozing for 5 minutes feels so... wasteful. It boggles my mind why they would neuter this functionality since it was so awesome back on my Wing.
1 cookie to anybody who can get an answer

It worked! Thanks Mesquire! You define awesome!
On a side note, it also changes the GUI for all pop up notifications, like text messages. You lose some form, but gain some function.

Hold the phone
I did the above reg change and I did get the old snooze menu but I lost my nice new soft keyboard. The one I now have is only has a number pad and a P and a W and some curser keys.
I removed the "new" from the file and no joy on getting everything back?
Thoughts?
TIA

Navigate back to:
HKLM/System/Shell/Notification/OEM
And change the value for "UseDefaultUI" back to 0. This should restore the modified UI. Also make sure that the value for "CustomUIDLL" reads "NotificationLayout.dll" verbatim (minus the quotation marks, of course). You might have deleted a letter or two by accident.
And as always... Soft Reset after performing any registry edits!

I tried both of those and still the same.

Which keyboard is this? And are you certain you are soft resetting your device?
I did this myself, but I chose flash over function and restored it to the default function. All my soft keyboards work fine (TouchPal, Full QWERTY).

It looks like a phone keypad. I have a full QWERTY but no TouchPal. I and using the stylist to push the reset button.

The only thing I can suggest is to install crackwhore's snooze options (found HERE). Then Soft reset the device by holding down the power button.
After installing it, uninstall it (so it can revert everything back to the default values), then make the necessary edits to UseDefaultUI and CustomUIDLL to restore them to the proper values. Soft reset once more and it should be back to working order.

Good try but no love from the TouchPal keyboard. I am going to try a Sprite Backup restore from 8/17/09. The check to see if that fixes things....then start to reload all the crap I had loaded since then.
Thanks for the help.
