Attenuation DWORD becomes STRING - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

does anybody know why this happens? regardless of whether you have the right DWORD entry in the cab, when it writes over "AttenuationCategory" inside SoundCategory it automatically becomes a STRING type instead. anybody have any idea how to solve this? people cant use volume up cabs because it ends up disabling their rings!

what reg edit program are you using and have you tried a different one?

its not the regedit program
its when i install cabs that edit the attenuationcategory registry value.
anybody know of anything?

Hi.
You could try using a registry editor to search within HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID for key IsSIPInputMethod. Then, for each one found look at the parent CLSID and you should see a string value (Default) set to the name of the input method (e.g Keyboard, Letter Recogniser, etc.) Once you find the CLSID entry for the Resco Keyboard, make a note of it, then delete it. Then find registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip and look at the string value DefaultIm to ensure that the Resco Keyboard's CLSID is not defined there - if it is, change it to be one of the other CLSIDs
I don't know if this will work, but it is probably worth a try.
@dcs
I tried looking everywhere for input metod string that was assigned to resco keyboard but non of them was for it And believe me I searched everywhere. Any other ideas? Anyone?(except hard reset ofcourse)
have you looked to see if its in your start up programs? if its there you need to remove it from start up and than you should be able to uninstall it.

Keyboard Remapping?

Is it possible to remap the keys on the keyboard to have different functions? For example I would like to replace the parentheses "(" and ")" with "[" and "]" and replace the OK key with send. is this possible. Im using a Tilt 2 by the way.
There is a Tilt2 keyboard fix CAB around here some where. I bet you can find it before I can. Try search.
Hope that helps.

You can change the values around by modifying the corresponding .txt file in the \windows folder according to what value you've got in hklm\software\tegic\et9\ime\keyboardlaoufiles\07FF file. For tilt2 you're probably using \windows\eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt.
If you want to modify it on your device you have to use a program that'll save specifically to unicode. Pocket word won't work. Your best bet is to copy it over to a PC, modify it in notepad, copy it back to the \windows directory, and soft-reset. It should be ~4.4kb when you've saved it. Once you're in the file it's easy enough to interpret what you're updating.
You'll want to make a backup of the original eT9 file too, because if you mess something up all the keys on your keyboard effectively turn into an "end" key.

[Q] Turn off Soft Keyboard popup

I have a Tilt 2 running the NEW ROM.
I want to disable the automatic pop-up of the soft keyboard, so that I get to decide when I want to use it.
Is there a way to turn this feature off?
I have seen references to making changes to the registry, I assume there is a switch in there somewhere, but how does one access the registry? Is there a hidden program somewhere I could start or do I have to download it?
Thanks,
Richard..
You need to download a registry editor. There are various choices out there. I use Total Commander:
http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
The reg edit that I have seen for preventing the soft keyboard from popping up, helps a little. But it doesn't prevent it in all situations.
As Redpoint mentioned, Total Commander is the preferred file explorer for most of us. Task Manager 3.1 is what I use for mobile registry editing. I do try to avoid doing any editing on my device, though. I rather edit on the PC side with the larger screen and less room for errors. For editing the device's registry from the PC, I use CEReg Editor 0.0.5.3.
For disabling the keyboard, you could try an app that I used to use on WM5 with my old Sable. It says it works with WM6, so give it a shot and see if you like it. It's called Nullkeyboard. All it does is add a blank SIP to your device. Select Nullkb from the SIP input button and you're good to go. Here is the link to the download.
I used Advanced Config. It gives you a nice way to select options and features and then change your registry for you. It is AWESOME for a tweaker. I'm using version 3.3.0.0 and it works great on my Tilt2 original OEM ROM.
Using this app, Under the Input category, change "Auto deply SIP" to disabled.
Okay, I downloaded the nullkeyboard and tried, it but it had no apparent effect.
I also downloaded the Task Manager 3.3 (latest version) and it works. I did a search for "keypad", but none of them appear to relate to controlling the pop-up feature.
Does anyone know what registry entry controls the soft keypad pop-up feature?
Thank you,
Richard..

Did you select the nullkeyboard from the SIP selection window that pops up when you press the right side of the soft keyboard icon?
You should NOT be searching around the registry for things to change without knowing what they are. Doing so can possibly screw up your phone and require a hard reset. You should only apply registry changes you see posted on here, and change them exactly as indicated.
The reg edit to prevent SIP for opening:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip
"TurnOffAutoDeploy" value="1"
NullKeyboard - Oh, is that how it works? Thank you for telling me. It does the job, except for the times I would like to use the keyboard for quik edits, I have to change it back to the regular keyboard first.
REGEDIT - I found the registry key: HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip
but there were no values in it for: TurnOffAutoDeploy
I added the value: "TurnOffAutoDeploy" value="1" (no quotes) with the type REG_SZ and then rebooted the phone. I also changed NullKeyboard back to regular.
This had no effect on the Auto Deploy of the keyboard.
I was hoping the RegEdit would work. The keyboard would be there, but would not pop-up until I wanted it.
If I did something wrong, or you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
Thank you,
Richard..
I think the reg type should have been a DWORD value of 1.
Great! That did it. The keypad stays out of the way and is there if I want it.
Thank you,
Thank you, thank you, thank you, cajunflavoredbob
