[theory] implement google search - Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking

well i was going through user.hv on a stock mango tmobile rom
and i saw this
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchProviders\SearchProvider1]
"Url"=mui_sz:"TMOUS_SearchProviderString.dll,#102"
"DisplayName"=mui_sz:"TMOUS_SearchProviderString.dll,#101"
my theory is that you could *possibly* add that line of reg settings to another roms user.hv, not from tmobile and *possibly* use google search as a default
so i pulled the dll from the windows folder, i uploaded it in case someone wants to try to implement on other roms,
would someone please try doing this, i would try this if i were home, any feedback if it worked would be appreciated
sorry if i kind of don't make sense im running on two hours of sleep and im at work

Why the DLL? you can set google with pure registry keys

Or dogpile.com

Those are for searching in internet explorer. It is really annoying as I like bing over google.

[SOLVED] OneNote Mobile (12.0.4518.1014) issues

For those who are having trouble with the OneNote Mobile that originally appeared in tripledes' 3.5 ROM and has been cooked into some other ROMs since, here's the deal. The two registry entries shown in red below were coded incorrectly in the original RGU such that "InstallPath" and "Attachments" were being created as subkeys instead of key values. The key shown in blue may be missing as well, but it's absence doesn't seem to prevent the app itself from working.
So the 1014 build of OneNote seems to work fine provided it has the proper reg entries. The one exception being the last remaining note isn't removed from the list when you delete it (an issue that was also present in build 1010).
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OneNote Mobile]
"Version"="12.0.4518.1014"
[COLOR="Red"][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OneNote Mobile\12.0]
"InstallPath"="\Windows"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OneNote Mobile\12.0]
"Attachments"=""[/COLOR]
[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Windows CE Services\Synchronization\Objects\OneNote Note]
"Display Name"="OneNote Note"
"Store"="\Windows\OneNoteSyncDevice.dll"[/COLOR]
Cool, just tried it on CUSTEL 2.5, it works!
Thanks alot!
Using Custel2.5, how do I make these changes? Is this answered in the wiki?
OK. Nobody flamed me at least. What I meant to ask was, is there a registry editor included in this rom already or do I need to install one such as Total Commander on the 8525? Is TC compatable with the new WM6 roms with new builds, kernels, etc.? It seems like it's an old program to me. Sorry if these are noob questions but, yes, I am a noob and I will probably never be more than that. At least not at the present time in my life. Don't need to be spoon fed but a little advice doesn't seem like alot to ask. If I had the passion and time I could learn anything on my own, I have a very functioning brain. However, my time at the moment is mostly spent working 60+ hours a week, and rebuilding my home after Katrina the rest of the time. This is a hobby, my diversion. I do read the threads and the wiki but at the moment I also need to rely on you guys that are the pros. But, if you need to know anything about rebuilding a house after a major disaster, just ask. That's something I have become well versed in.
10 out of 10 to you vp3G Nicely done! I suspected it was registry related.
I believe the blue entry is needed if you want to sync OneNote with your PC.
@ezmike: For now, you need to use a registry editor. CUSTEL 2.5 has one built in (Taskman Regedit).
@Sleuth255: Yeah, that's what I think. I don't have Office 2007 anywhere but my Hermes, so I don't know for sure. I boosted that key from the desktop cab used to install 1010.

I also provided an XML in custels 2.5 thread with the reg edits that where needed
Anyway since your so damn good with office any chance you could make a cab that would auto install 2k7 over the regular office? I'll post shadow's office fix cab which has the reg entrys you need and DES posted the office files we need also.... you would be the man if you did that!
here is the link to the 2k7 office files you need...

Yeah, I stumbled on the problem whilst cooking my own ROM last night. The cab you posted on the CUSTEL thread that installs the 1010 build is what tipped me off...

I don't think it's terribly likely given how Office Mobile is wired into the rest of the ROM. It's roughly akin to Internet Explorer on a desktop, IMO. I may give it a whirl if I feel really ambitious, though.
Thanks vp3G and austinsnyc. Much appreciation for pointing me in the right directions and for posting the cabs, etc. I really am trying to learn as much as possible, and guys like you are helping more than you will ever know. Thanks again.
This fix???
Ok, I'm sorry I must be dumb... I can't figure this out. I have tried the reg settings, I have installed the onenote files over and over and I still cannot delete any onenote files nor can I take a picture and insert it. It will also not sync with my desktop. I hope I don't get flamed, I have read all the post and most of wiki and still can't fix, can you please help.

Here are the correct entries in .CAB format... Kudos to vp3g!
Shadowmite's attachment fixed it.

Thanks for the cab, very convenient.
Also, loves your HTCustom, nicely done!
so what is the correct registry edit to place in the registry for it to work? red is incorrect, and blue is missing. so I add the blue and what about the red?

Hey Ezmike.
FYI, TC works perfectly fine in WM6 (I'm currently on LVSW's build). I use it, not because it's the easiest or fanciest, but I'm a big fan of Christian Ghisler's and have been using TC on my desktop since about the time of Julius Caesar or so. Good luck with your home man!!!

WM 6.5 - Titanium Scrolling menu in today - Customize, How?

Hi!
I really like this new today design with titanium, hope im not alone with this
I would like to do some changes. I already know how i can change the order of the menu names, but i still don't know how can i change the links.
For example:
There is Favourites. If you click on it you can scroll right,left. There are your fav. webpages and the browser: Internet Explorer.
I hate IE, i prefer Opera.
How can i change it to Opera?
Please do not tell me "click on start and there will be the bulit in opera" because i know that i would like to change IE to opera in the new wm6.5 Today screen.
Thank you in advance!
I want it too,anyone ? please
thanks
Good to know, im not alone
wanna know too, so far i have only found CHome configurator for windows smartphone. But it's not completely compatible. Also in the registry editor i found some keys regarding to the CHome (Titanium) settings and items present.
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome
HKLM\Security\Microsoft\CHome
but i think editing the .cpr file is also needed for everything to work....
for myself i haven't got it working the way i want it, but may b we can make this a central thread if anyone finds out how to do it.... please put a tutorial in here........
here are some links on here i found some info:

Thx for your links!
Well, it seems it's difficult for a newbie like me, hope a clever guy will develope an easier app for this all
Im looking into this now, I will post here if I can do it.

AT&T Tilt 2 Keyboard???

Hi There-
Well, I managed to get one of the ROMs to install on the new Tilt 2 from AT&T but I have a small problem. I can't find a cab to fix the keyboard mapping problem. I found one for the tmobile version but no luck fixing the problem. So, I figured I would just flash back to the original ROM and wait for some folks to modify their ROMs to work with the Tilt 2 but now I can't find that either. Am I just not finding it in my searches or is it just not here yet.... any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Titl 2's just started landing in people's hands today. It's going to be a few more days until there is a cab released to fix it.

It's not too bad, its in the format of the regular tp2. number keys on the top row and all that. Kind of nice to have actually,if I can memorize the keys quick enough I might leave it that way
I agree that it is kind of messed up. I bought a t-mo version, and I plan to sim unlock it and use it on att. I freaking LOVE this keyboard! I actually thought about checking eventually at htc part replacement stores to buy a stock keyboard, and physically changing the keyboard when I sell this one one and pick up a tilt2 (only b/c the t-mo can't pick up the att 3g frequencies).
Good luck finding your KB fix!

Dude, the finger keyboard is good enough to last me a few days until one of the wizards on this board comes up with the registry update. I am so happy with this phone so far it's crazy. The improvements to Office alone are awesome.
EDIT:
CONFIRMED TO WORK.
it's usually as simple as a registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\
CWSLayout=1
LayoutID=502
update: scockman found one more key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\Keyboard LayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
if that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to play with it more when I actually get around to flashing my Tilt 2
Flash back to original ROM, export the keyboard settings using totalcommander or phm reg, then flash to custom rom, and import keyb settings.
i'm about to attach my .reg files from my stock tilt 2 rom. someone who has flashed their tilt 2 install them then soft reset and let us know what happens. also you might want to backup your HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\ just to be on the safe side.

Woo Hoo!! That fixed my issue, these were missing from the ROM that I was using "EnergyROM".
There is one other registry that everyone may be missing that needs to be set:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
After these were set I did a reset and everything is working.
Do you mind if i ask how did you get a tilt 2? I checked the att site and it is only showing on the business side called att and they said its not availalbe yet?
thks
J
I'm an AT&T Dealer and placed an order for 1 and got it. The dealers that order 20-50 won't get their's for a while because there is not enough to go around.
* I'm currently using the energy rom and the keyboard is off somewhat like the original tilt was when it came out. The number keys are off and most of the top row keys as well. Someone suggested to flash back to the original ROM but silly me didn't back it up. I assumed it would be here. I think I'm just a little too much ahead. I will; however, try the registry fix and see if it fixes my problem. Thanks for all of the help guys...
I guess I am a little confused as to "what" actually fixed your layout problem? Did you have to put ALL of those registry entries in or just the ones you added to the message? Anyway someone could put that in a .cab?
thanks!
Tilt2 KB reg edits - mostly good
I can confirm that:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\
CWSLayout=1
LayoutID=502
helps...the OK key and others along bottom row are still not right but at least the FN and Caps are back to normal (using energyRom). an edit of the Cingular_US.txt should help. I'll try that in a bit.
Using Adv Config to set Cingular keyboard doesn't work...had to reg edit to use Cingular_US as indicated above.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\Keyboard LayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
I, too, wish i had saved Tilt2 keymap reg before my first flash.
Remember, takes both steps to get Tilt2 KB to 'normal'
Hey guys,
moved ya over to general...

Ditto can someone cab it up so I can continue to be lazy. Thanks
fire up Total commander, hit up the plugins --> registry, and then follow the structure to the specified containers. edit or add as needed.
I guess I'm confused because I can't seem to get the registry entries to work properly!

Here are all the relevant entries. Import them into your registry and reset.
Dot fred's registry editor makes it easier to just click and add registry settings.
And while I am at it, I attached the file to make hardSPL easy to run as well.

Finger menus off ?

Have been trying to search for a cab for FINGER MENU's OFF like energyrom's have built into there roms, I have managed to find how to add the enhanced menu's within HTC, but can't find how to turn them off and use the standard WM6.5 menu's.
Please does anyone know where I can find how to do this ?
See obviously no ones knows...no responses at all
Is it only me that dislikes the HTC enhanced menus ?
WOOOO hooooo I managed to find this cab, so if anyone wants to get rid of those menus...has taken me all day to find this
Just change this in your registry:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu]
"CUIHandler"=dword:00000000
Soft reset and you're done. The CAB you've uploaded contains some Push dll file as well. This is not needed as far as I know
HTC Menus
I really dislike those menus as well. Thanks because I was having a really difficult time finding anyone who knew the default menus still existed.

I really need to be able to play an extended ringtone and it seems the Blackjack II had a registry tweak to handle this. That tweak doesn't work on our TP2s tho.
I am honestly surprised more folks haven't inquired about this.
do a search on this forum for "NoRingToneLimit" - it is .cab file and it works.
I searched the forum and did not find any hits, so I did an advanced search which took me to the archives.
There is a reference to a fix for 6.1:
mikefordmustang.com/downloads/NoRingtoneLimit.cab
Can anyone confirm this works for 6.5?
Found this as well but I haven't tried it personally. Seems easy enough to test though if you want to give it a go.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

That is the same tweak I found on a google search that was said to work for the Blackjack II. There is no such entry for WM 6.5 on my gsm TP2.
I did add the entry, using a larger value, and it did not work for me.

I tested this on my gsm TP2 on WM 6.5 and does not work. It will only play 20 seconds of a lengthy mp3 file on local memory. Still looking for a tweak/fix!!

You might have already tried this, but did you search your registry to see if that key existed in some other location maybe? I have 6.1 or I'd go look myself...

You know, I did do a search, but it just occurred to me that I searched for files, not strings within the registry.
I am going to do a search on both FileSizeLimit and NoRingToneLimit as strings and see what it comes up with. Total Commander is proving to be invaluable right about now!

I do like TC and can't deny its swissarmyknife-like utility, but for when I just want to zip around in the registry, I like the look/feel of PHM_regedit better.
thx for the tip! i'll look into that ..
Use ceregeditor and browse your phone registry form your computer making it 100 times easier.
so I grabbed ceregeditor and yes indeed, it makes it sooo much easier to search/edit registry entries.
so ... my findings:
Installing NoRingtoneLimit.cab did put an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds:FileSizeLimit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default Value Data was set to 0 .. this did not work.
I increased the value to a high # .. i saw 10487200 as a possible value when I found the blackjack ii tweaks .. that too did not work.
Im guessing everything Im doing works just fine for WM 6.1 .. but nobody has figured out why it doesnt for 6.5. I hope there are others out there with more insight into this. I really dont want to go back to my old phone when I go OnCall this weekend!

It works on my AT&T Tilt 2 with 6.5 - Have Hallelujah Chorus (eleven minutes) as a ringtone.
well now i'm bummed even more!
i am going to uninstall the .cab .. reset .. and then re-install .. and reset to see what happens.
iv'e tried different things to come up with a solution and nothing appears to be taking: repeat notifications, filesizelimit, notificationlayoutnew.dll ... i get zilch on each!
wow .. 11mins!
well i am just so frickin' dissapointed in this thing now. i just cant fathom as to why a GSM model would be that much different than an ATT Tilt2.
I guess perhaps using one of the many available ROMs on this site could help? Any advice, anyone?
And that made all the difference!
It finally works!
I knew there had to be something weird about my setup that was causing this not to work for me. I was timing the length of the ringtone and while the longest was at 20 seconds, there were times when it was a little as 10.
I started thinking that perhaps something was intercepting or disturbing the process that killed the ringtone. I never thought to uncheck DISPLAY MESSAGE ON SCREEN.
This is what made the difference. Once the txt message screen timed out and disappeared, the ringtone died as well. Unchecking it allowed the ringtone/vibration to play fully. WHEW! I swear, of all the things to check last ... when will I ever learn!

Hahaha congrats! I was trying to figure out what the heck could still be keeping you from playing them properly, and I honestly wouldn't have thought of that either! I bet this will lead to a lot of "a-HA!"s in RhodiumTown tonight! lol
