Only Where to change the Scan Interval

Did you try searching the registry with PHM Reistry Editor?

i´ve tryed searching with "Araxis Merge" and found some keys, but when ever i reset the device and restore the settings, there is no effect to the WiFi-settings

Definitive Registry edits for Bluetooth vehicle connection

I think it would be very beneficial to this forum to develop a definitive list of Registry edits known to achieve connection for various vehicles. I have a Volvo XC60 and have after considerable effort finally achieved regular automatic connection and everything working other than Own Ringtones. Once I've conquered Ringtones too and have a definitive set of reg edits, I will post those here for the benifit other Volvo users. (Or can any other XC60 drivers already do so?) I would like to propose that drivers of other vehicles do the same for theirs, creating here a list of definitive Registry edits for different vehicles.

Following will work for all Volvos:
.Navigate to HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\
Click "Values" soft-key
Change "00001001" value to 1 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 2)
Change "00001005" value to 40 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 16)
Reboot device.
2. Modify the HandsFree plug-in:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree
i. Change SupportedFeatures to 1085 (default is 1135)
ii. Add value HFBDA binary, set to same value as LastConnectedBda
iii. Add value HFDeviceType decimal 2
3. Modify the WIDCOMM bluetooth general settings:
HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\General
i. Change bdaddr to (no value)
ii. Change DisableReopenAudio to 0 (default is 1)
4. Reboot device

I tried this with HD2 & XC-60 but system sounds doesn't work. All others working just fine. System sounds would be fine because of GarminXt.

I concur. I've been experimenting with my HTC TP2 & XC60 for some time now and the best I can achieve is 100% functioning calls in and out with standard ringing tone. I can't get own ringtones, stored address book or 10 last dialled/received calls. Such a shame.

Registry hacks to increase menu fonts.

Find a registry editor and edit these keys to increse the font on the menus and fonts in the menu bars.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\BarFnt\Ht\change DWORD VALUE TOO 1200
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\Popfnt\Ht\change DWORD VALUE TOO 1200
More edits to come.

Some useful settings

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22
By using this app you can change settings, which can not be changed normally. A few I would like to explain here. I am not responsible for anything! Use at your own risk!
If you know more settings, you can share it with the other users here.
You can only change settings in the tab "System", as long as the app doesn't have the permission for this. Without root you need to use adb to grant this permission.
I recommend that the phone should be restarted when changes have been made since not all changes are updated directly.
If you don't have the setting you can add it by pressing "+ Add new setting".
Setting: hide_virtual_key
Value: 1 enables it, 0 disables it
What does this setting do: This setting adds a button to the navigation bar, which hides it. You can then make it visible again by moving your finger upwards from the bottom of the screen.
Setting: multiwindow_mode_settings
Value: 1 enables it, 0 disables it
What does this setting do: It toggles the MultiWindow function on/off.
Setting: hw_not_display_week
Value: false enables it, true disables it
What does this setting do: Toggles visibility of week day on the icon of the calender app.
Setting: app_name_two_lines
Value: true enables it, false disables it
What does this setting do: Toggles whether app names should be truncated in the launcher or if they can take two lines.
If you can't enable network speed informations in status bar this might help:
Setting: show_network_speed_enabled
Value: -1 hides it in settings, 0 disables it, 1 enables it
Information: Seems to be completly broken/disabled/removed in B420/B421.

Custom volume index values for audio streams

Hi,
in this file (Lines 307 to 320) you can set the "Maximum volume index values for audio streams".
I know there is a way not to change this file itself but to set these values in custom, by setting ro.config.media_vol_steps or ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps and so on.
Is there a list of these custum settings ro* ?
My idea is to set all values in lines 310 to 319 to my own needs... :angel:
