Install RegistryEditor v 1.2.0.0 from TouchExperience website and follow first post.(I'm using HD7 sorry)Hope it works for you.

Hey man, *PLEASE* don't post the same question in many different threads. You've been here long enough to know better than that...
As for the answer, well, you run a registry editor app, you navigate to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings (watch for forum-added spaces in the string; the only space should be between "Internet" and "Settings"), tap on the named registry values, and set them...
If the ROM you are using is configured to automaticlaly revert them to some other value, for whatever reason, you need to modify or replace the ROM. There are only a few registry values I've found that have checks like that, though.
For the curious, the default values on my stock HD7 are 6 for both items.

thanks worked
EDIT: dont work.. still shows a "H" in my screen!
and yes I did a reboot but it dont work..

That... I can't help you with. I see no particular reason to believe that the registry values in question actually control which cellular technology is used by the phone. In fact, that seems a bit unlikely. I've been wrong about unlikely registry values before though...
In any case, I'm pretty sure it is possible (maybe using Field Test?) to lock out certain wireless technologies, but I haven't done any research on it. The only way I know is the basic option under Settings -> Cellular, and that disables all 3.xG tech.

u need the custom rom intrinsic, other roms may not work
i have been using this tweak for many hours now. my phone does not go to H signal during web surfing.even after soft reset, reboot. So it is working on mine
before this, phone will go to H signal meaning its using HSPA when doing things like surfing, email sync ect.. and will only stay on 3G during rest

well those are the phone options , they only disable data
in registry i tried before , a few days ago
registry -> data speed, i tried deleting the HSPA file.
doesnt work the H signal is still there.. so i guess this doesnt work
i went to www.mobilespeedtest.com. and did a test on the largest file . So far its only showing speeds which are under the 3G specs

i see something called registrypersist in the intrinsic rom. maybe thats why it works

hmm i got a trophy with a full unlock.
but btw, ill leave it on 32 and 16 to see if my 3g iddle mode stays at 3G instead of H

i am not sure why or how this works
but my theory is this , imagine
3G - uses xxx power at a certain speed
hspa - uses higher xxx power for faster speed
u have 6 pipes , u need to pull 20 stuff into these pipes, 6 at a time to destination (phone)
in order to do all of it in a given time, u need to pull the 20 stuff at a higher speed (hspa) which uses more power but faster to get to the destination ( phone). the phone recognises this and automatically goes into HSPA mode ( high power but faster operation)
so to solve the problem u open another 14 more pipes, that is ( 6+14-20 pipes) but get the 20 stuff with the power requirement of 3G all at the same time but at the same speed, u get all the 20 stuff at the given xx time by opening up more pipes parallel to the original 6 u already have
this is why maybe the phone stays on 3G because it has more pipes

So if anything, it changes the amount of power used by HSPA, not the actual technology used.
From my understanding, those registry values are similar to the ones within Windows which control max connections to servers.. By changing it to a lower value you're in reality only limiting your speed.
And am I the only person who thinks Magpir posts nothing but garbage?

it should automatically default to 3G when idle even without the tweak
what this tweak does is limit it to 3G under all circumstances.

amount of power means lower power = battery life savings.

By such a small margin. Think what you will.

Mine always begins at the start of the second ring.
1. use the original phone, not the bloated one with video messaging (not as pretty, but saves 3.5mb on load up)
2. remove memory card readers that are present on the today screen (eg SPB and Resco)
3. delays are longer when the contacts list is longer for caller id (I have 80 not 800)
4. consider when pictures and ringtones are also assigned to the contact (just use the standard single ring tone for all contacts, no pictures)
5. if your ring tones are on your sd card, this will also slow it down (move to windows\rings)
6. i extended the ring period also to a full 30 seconds to ensure that I have enough time to get to the phone when it rings out (phone settings voice mail or contact the provider)
I cannot get it to ring at all ever on the first ring, its always at the very beginning of the second especially from sleep mode or suspended)

How did you get the original phone?
I tried the suggestions on the other thread where you need to change something in the registry, but that just disables the video messaging leaving a blank part on the screen. I want what you have, the original phone skin when I first turned my Universal ON after a hard reset. This original phone skin disappeared after I performed a soft reset.
From the wiki:
To set or remove the operator phone skin
The setting is at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'
The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be set to '1' to show the operator skin or '0' to show the default skin

Thanks for the reply, I am not sure if this was the one I tried before from one of the threads. How about you? Have you tried this registry tweak?
I did it by not installing any of the extended rom except operator settings, and the bluetooth patch.
my device boots up with 31mb of RAM available if all start ups and today screens are disabled.
I dont know how to do it otherwise.
I believe the hack mentioned above or similar on how to do it is posted on WIKI.

He guys this is not helping us a bit out of the problem. This has nothing to do with the problem some of us are facing regarding the ringer going off after a 2 to 3 sec delay, making you loose precious seconds to answer the phone before the call gets routed to your operator voice mail system.
And the suggestion that you have to alter the settings regarding the handover time for an unanswered call or the other advising to just cancel the handocer to voice mail is also not helping us.
Brgds, Adhoc.
Please focus on that one !!
Hi,
AutoDPD is Auto Deep Power Down for DOC. I think it takes longer to wake it up from this state and thus it takes longer to ring.

Radio Rom 1.08 Rings Quickly - but the person on the oher end can't hear you immediately
Rom 1.06 takes a bit longer berfore it rings but you can talk straigt away
The best enhancement if you are not going to use video or 3G speeds is to set you Band to GSM or WCDMA and NOT AUTO, in Phone Settings
Obvioulsy if you have it on WCDMA and there is no 3G coverage you wont get signal

Telus Vogue Update finally here!

So Aaron McCarthy discovered a new Vogue rom for Telus users (I REPEAT: TELUS ONLY!!!). It was at one of the known IP addresses which HTC has used. It was accidentally leaked or opened for a tester, I suppose. It's also seemingly no longer available... I get "Directory Listing Denied" when I follow the link now. So, of course I've uploaded my copy to rapidshare. Back up any important files on your phone and then enjoy:
http://rapidshare.com/files/1282900...4350H_3.41.00_Ship_withPPSTPatch1.20.exe.html
It'll be easy to install, just run the EXE on your windows XP/Vista computer, connect your vogue with Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center when the program prompts you to do so, and follow the on-screen instructions. It took me approximately 15 minutes to do this. Add five for letting the phone customize itself.
I also did some messing with it to get everything working. It does not fully function out of box (which is probably why it's not actually released yet).
For me, the steps that got the GPS and Internet to work:
-Dial *22803 , 1 (for English), 1 (program your handset). Wait for reset.
-Install Google Maps and a registry editor.
-Search for a registry key called GPSMODE and change it's dword value from 2 to 4. This may not be necessary, but it worked for me.
<EDIT>Registry change is definitely not necessary, I've tried it both ways with no different effect. What this setting does might be explained better in the next post.</EDIT>
-Soft reset.
-Run Google Maps and any other freeware, no problem.
I'm certain that some GPS programs will require initialization/tweaks, and I'd bet that most of those have already been examined elsewhere in this forum. Anyway the GPS is seemingly solid and accurate. I placed it next to a handheld garmin unit and speed, lattitude,longitude were matched on both devices over a half-hour trip. It will certainly NOT work indoors.
As for Rev.A, I honestly cannot tell you anything about it. I'm in a CDMA only area for the next 3 weeks.
Thanks again to Aaron McCarthy for discovering the Rom and letting us know so that I could copy it before we got locked out. Here's the thread he started : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2385096
by setting GPSMode to 4 you disable the GPS. Not the best idea....
GPSMode 1 = ONLY pure GPS
GPSMode 2 = GPS + aGPS
GPSMode 4 = aGPS only
Got it installed without any issues. However Google maps and the Telus Navigator programs don't seem to be able to find the GPS... Well, to be more precise, googlemaps doesn't give an error. It just sits there seeking satellites. The Telus NAV doesn't get past the startup screen. Any suggestions?
WM6.1 is working fine on my phone but is it possible that I actually don't have the built in GPS even though it is a Telus HTC Touch?

It has been known since a while that all Vogues phones (or CDMA Touch) have the GPS hardware built in. It is just not activated by Telus yet.
This new ROM should be released officially by Telus soon in order to let users have GPS and better performance.

Thanks for this ROM. Can't be more easy to upgrade a ROM.
GPS is working fine. It took several try and a very clear sky (no tree) to make first connexion. It was so slow to connect that I suspect AGPS (cellular tower triangulation assist) is not working.
At 3 bars of reception, in EVDO REV A zone, I get a DL speed of 150 to 400kb/s which is pretty lame and just a bit better than before rev A.
One problem:
When clicking on status icons on the top bar (volume, battery, etc.), it used to display the control directly. Now it displays an intermediate screen repeating those icons but in a larger mode. It is buggy because it doesn't display message icons if I previously clicked Dismiss. Then I can't go to my messages.
In Start, Settings, System, TouchFLO, there is no setting to remove this screen.
I tried HKLM->Software->HTC->EnlargeTitleBar->Enable=0 without success.
Is it something that comes with WM6.1?
Is it Telus ROM specific?
Do Sprint official ROM got the same problem?
Any reg to remove this?
That is too funny

If you go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406320&page=2 and go to post #14 you can see the guide to improving GPS locks on the telus rom. I mean DRASTICALLY. From initally loading the rom I went from getting 4-5 locks maybe after a few minutes on a cold GPS start then once I changed all the settings and did a soft reset I was getting 6 to 7 satellite locks down in my basement. Pretty impressive
It's not as complicated as it seems to be in the post I made. Pretty straight forward actually and I would recommend it to anyone who wants better GPS reception
In regards to Rev A speeds. I'm in London ontario so would think there would be rev A in the area but I dont get any better download speeds. I still download around 600-800 kbps. Which is really good enough for me. I dont know if rev A actually was supposed to increase your download speed or if it improved upload speeds making Voip easier and allowing you to have data and phone stuff going on at the same time. All I know is my internet speed didnt change but Rev A was enabled.

Every time, before using this, an already established data connexion is needed BEFORE looking for GPS satellite. The GPS will not establish the connection if it's not there. A simple solution is to open Google map and move the map up to a download is required BEFORE making the GPS satellite connexion.

Looks like the official Telus rom is on HTC's site now.
Yep - and it appears to be identical to the one referenced in this thread from 3 weeks ago. That's kind of a disappointment considering how much trouble the tech-naive user is going to have getting the gps to work and getting their data connection back after flashing.

2 weeks ago I sent a support ticket to HTC stating that the GPS fix is difficult to get, mainly because all GPS assisted features (aGPS) are disabled by default in the radio (can't be fixed by a simple registry tweak). I even pointed them to one solution of many (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406320&page=2 post #14). Then no correction and not even a mention in the documentation.
I just can't imagine how many phone calls they will get from upgraders complaining that the GPS can't find satellites after 5 minutes...

The problem appears to be that Verizon is authenticating their aGPS server and if your phone is not valid for aGPS support the 'fix' will no longer work. There a rumors about that Veriosn may offer aGPS support for a fee in the near future because some of their new models are supposed to unlock aGPS first quarter 2009.
What has worked for many is to use the TELUS aGPS server. To do this use QPST like for the original fix, but use the following assignments:
IP: 216.198.139.92
PORT: 8889
Not as fast as the Verizon, but I get locks in about 30 seconds.
Hope this helps.

3. Soft reset the phone
4. Open your favorite gps app and you should have a lock within 30 seconds.
(if that does not work make sure you have location on in the phone settings. Also make sure that under gps settings you have the baud rate set to 4800 and the com port set to 4)
If it still does not work check the following reg settings
[HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL GPS]
\EnableAGPS = 1
\EnableSmartMode = 1
\GPSMode = 4 (should also work as 2)
\NumberFixes = 999999999
\QoSAccuracy = 50
\QoSPerformance = 89
\ServerIP = 195.207.101.126
\ServerPort = 7788
\timeBetweenFixes = 1
MMS
1. Go to connection settings and select "Manage existing connections"
2. edit the only connection there
3. Name it whatever you want ie "vzw"
4. hit next and enter #777 as the number
5. hit next and put "[email protected]" and "vzw" as the password
6. hit finish
7. install the attached arcsoft cab
8. do a soft reset.
9. open phmregedit in the start menu
10. navigate to HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcsoftMMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\X-VzW-MDN and put your 10 digit phone number for the value
11. wait a min or two and do a soft reset
12. go into messaging select menu and then mms options
13. select the server tab
14. select verizon wireless and change connect via to "the internet", the other settings should be correct.
15. wait a few min and perform a soft reset once more
16. now mms should work!!!
Not sure what the deal is with the GPS's not working. Mine has not stopped working. I attempted the aGPS fix in the beginning but it would not work for. I am running NFSFAN's ROM & my GPS is working without an issue. Granted I unlocked my phone with 2.31 before upgrading to VZW's 6.1 ROM & never let the customizations run.
This guy has the right idea here ---> http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36377
I had been searching for WEEKS.. I'm freshly in my NFS6.5 V7 with no customizations ran other than NFS's, I went and did what the guy said at ppc geeks, except I didn't install the gps registry cab he tells you to..
In both QPST and the registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS] I did this
PDE IP Address = 66.174.95.132
PDE Port Number = 8888
(Only QPST)PDE Transport = IP
(Only QPST)Position Calculation = mobile
with GPSMode: 4
**** works beautifully..
in google maps i DONT let it automatically find GPS, i put it to com4 4800..
i get about 5-6 active, occasionally going upwards around 7-8 but no more, works for me
although im currently looking for another gps program to use, google maps isnt bad but i wanna see if theres better free ones out there, if anyone has suggestions please let me know
I take it back it worked for about 4 hours and now no longer locks, in google maps it'll say "seeking GPS satellite (479001920).." and sometimes cut down to "seeking GPS satellites (5).." and go back and forth quickly.. at first when i got it working it would lock in on the 5 after like 10 seconds, now no luck
to bad, hopefully it comes around on its own lol.. or ill try a few changes now that i have a basis
edit: NEVERMIND.. had the problem for about 30-40 minutes (which lead to me posting to let anyone who might read what i did know the same might happen to them) and now it started to work again on its own just fine
GPS on verizon
I want to know if the GPS will use data or not, my phone has a data block and I still have the WM6.1 original rom. I was thinking to the what the last post did but it shows that it edits ip address.
Is there a way to keep the rom but use the gps without using data?

I dont think it uses Data because from what i remember there were some people using the GPS feature with a Data Block
I'm seeing satellites (red bars) when I open mGpsCmd but I'm unable to get a lock (blue bars). Any ideas why I'm unable to get a lock?

You are no the only having difficulties but I have run out of ideas.
The only thing that I can offer is look at the registry settings.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE ----SOFTWARE ----> HTC ----> SUPL AGPS
EnableGPS = 1
GPSMode =2 I have changed this to a 4 & been able to lock.
You can try tweaking these & see if it helps. If you are able to get a lock change them back. It usually takes the longest to obtain the first lock. Some people have experienced in excess of 15 minutes.

I searching for GPS and have found it difficult to "sift" out the aGPS mixed in with the GPS... and of course, that is what determines whether a data connection is required. I have the Data Block and want to only use the Satelites.
So my questions....
In my registry the above location lists only
EnableAGPS = 1
not
EnableGPS = 1
Do I need to edit out the A in AGPS to read only GPS?
Do I need both entries?
If both should I change "EnableAGPS = 1" to the value 0?
I will keep "sifting", but if anyone can answer the above or point to a thread where the posts are purely about "GPS" without aGPS mixed in, I would REALLY appreciate the answers or link
In order to use the GPS with no data, set the following:
\EnableAGPS = 0
\EnableSmartMode = 0
\GPSMode = 0
With these settings you will only use the sats. Warning: That first lock may take a long time.

Thanks for the reply.
I may still be confused with all that has happened since the Touch/Vogue came out...(I have actually read too much and hacked too little so far) I am a new owner, and so I am wondering how many of the early posted problems were eliminated now that WinMo6.1 comes standard instead of an upgrade, as well as having an updated radio 3.37.78.
In my reading people are posting that this radio works for accessing GPS (though they may actually be reporting success with aGPS)... but do I still need to use the coke unlocker? or is this only for ROM flashing? Also if I flash one of NFSFANS ROMs will this "fix" any GPS setting problems I may or may not have?
My apologies for any noobiness, I tried to pay my dues searching but... not all the threads are clean nor all the post clear. (nothing new in the forum world)
Edit
Answers to my questions^^^
coke unlocker has to be used activate GPS radio
Radio 3.37.78 works fine for GPS
NFSFANs ROMs are built for Vogues with active GPS radios.

excruciatingly slow internet

I recently updated my rom to Miri's WM6.5 21869, from my default WM 6, and, the internet is just horrible. Youtube, takes as long as dialup to load, searching for images, it takes a good 30 seconds to a minute to load a page of results, and it's just all bull. On my default rom i would have 4 minute youtube vids downloaded in 30 seconds, image results in 3-5 seconds.
Any idea what i can do to help this? I want to keep wm6.5, not necessarily miri's wm6.5 so if you know of another ROM that is gprs/3g speedy then by all means point me in the right direction.
Im with optus prepaid, and my orginal rom was an unlocked telstra one.
Also I've heard that a newer radio version makes a difference, although i have not been able to navigate my way to an upgrade link. current version is 1.14......
A correct solution will receive a donation, for enough to buy a 6 pack of beer (if you use paypal)
Cheers.

Did you check if the phone might be set to only use GPRS for data services? Head to the settings tab, hit "Communications" and see if there is an option called "3G"! It has to be set to "auto" mode! If it's set to GSM, it will only use GPRS which is slooooooooooow.
And if that is in fact the solution, don't donate the money to me but to xda-developers!
Still no luck I didn't have an auto mode but i switched it to ON haha, but unfortunately it didn't seem to make a difference in download speed

Strange! What kind of connection do you have? What symbol is shown on the top taskbar for the data connection? An E, an H, an G? Something else?

did you reboot the phone after switching?
Sometimes helps for me.
I've rebooted several times and re-installed the rom and still no luck On the standard rom i purchased it with it had an H symbol in the connection icon, now it's a G. Maybe optus just sucks?

With a G it's no wonder it's so slow... It's like a 56K modem!!!
When you set up the new ROM, did it recognize the carrier and run through the carrier specific configuration thingie after flashing?
Maybe there is something misconfigured so it won't use HSDPA even if it's available... Could you go to Settings -> Connections -> Connections and tell me what kind of connections are listed there?
Also, check the following: Settings -> Connections -> Advanced Network
In the drop down list, what does it say? It shouldn't be set to "Disable"!

Registry Keys for VoLTE enable?

I've been doing some poking around with Win10M on my 830 and want to enable VoLTE so that I can place VoLTE calls on T-Mobile.
I have an RM985 device, so I get access to T-mobile LTE, but don't have all AWS bands so in LTE only areas (Becoming more common) I cannot place calls.
I found Microsoft's documentation for VoLTE & IMS settings, but cannot figure out where in the registry these are. Can someone help me figure out where to write to so that I can toggle my VoLTE settings?
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn772272(v=vs.85).aspx
and https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/mt138319(v=vs.85).aspx
Anyone have any information?
Path:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cellular\MVSettings\IMSISpecific\Default\CellUX
Key:
ShowVoLTEToggle
Set to 1.

Thanks for that! Looks like changing that toggle (and the one on my specific IMSI) didn't bring the toggle up in win10m. I'll keep digging though. I know the phone is VoLTE capable since the AT&T one is, but it seems I'm missing something important.
Edit:
Did some more digging, found every registry key that I need to throw in, and threw them into both the default location and the one specific to my IMS.
Turns out you need it at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cellular\MVSettings\IMSISpecific\Default\CellUX\Critical instead.
Unfortunately, adding these keys, plus adding a key at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cellular\MVSettings\IMSISpecific\Default\VoLTE for the two keys required hasn't made the toggle show up. I'm still digging and assume there's some other set of keys that I'm missing at this point.
I remember seeing the toggle after modifying the registry key a few months back, although it made no change for actual state of Calls on VoLTE.
Might have changed in recent builds, I could not make it show up now either.

Has anyone figured out if the 830 & other phones have the dialer options to bring up the band selection and other features like we can do on the 640 and 1520?

I don't know but try adding ##3282# to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Phone\Settings\PartnerImmediateDialStrings using CustomPFD Registry Editor; reboot and dial ##3282# ?
Does anyone knows if there is a registry key to enable call recording on all lumia phones? For now it is only possible to record call on new Lumias.

i have a lumia 920 originally from mexico but it's sim unlocked even so i can't get the LTE bands available in my country and also after upgrading from wp8 to wp8.1 i can't connect to 2g networks only 3g so it seems like a missing registry value or a blocked one i'm trying to find it with no luck yet so if you can help me i'll appreciate it
really?
How do you able to do that? please tell me the way. I want to try it on Lumia 730

You need to know probably these keys from an x50 user
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Phone\Settin\PreferredRecordingApplication
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Phone\Setting\RecordingFeatureDisabled
Also, there is high chance that it will require more keys other than this to enable recording.
provisioning files for VoLTE for T-Mobile
Hey everyone, these are the files that are processed for provisioning the L640 (T-Mobile) to set up the phone for VoLTE. I've been looking for a way to either deploy the files, most of the core files that is needed for VoLTE is processed through the provxml which via MCSF. Attempting to hard code the MCSF to its location in the registry from the source keys fails to create the necessary folder to continue(this is with the interop unlocked L950DS). Maybe someone else on xda can help out.

Hi,
Did you managed to find any way to enable VoLTE ?
I am using Lumia 950 DS, My carrier supports VoLTE feature but in my phone there is no option to enable VoLTE. I can just use internet but no voice call.
I tried to change registry keys as well but no luck.
Please help me if anybody here managed to enable this feature.

these reg edit there from long time,it can't enable field test,even if you deploy field test appx ,and open with gadget app , it limited to locking 2g/3g/4g same setting in sim settings appears in field-test app.better solution would be trying Fw that had field test on ROM.
it will look like RM-XXXX VAR NAM ( or ) RM-XXXX VAR APAC VN CV lumiafirmware.com,
locked bands in field-test will be in same state even after reboot.

hi.. can you help me to edit the regitry fro Enabling VoLTE on Lumia 950.???
it also seems like their is a modemconfig .nvi files that has to be loaded to the phone for the modem to configure correctly. Activating certain registry key wont actually enable some of the feature due to the modem config files. I am still looking for the Alcatel OneTouch Fierce XL windows ffu or cab list to help with enabling VoLTE or to dive deeper. I posted on the windowscentral forums, reddit, and here on xda but no one is able or I assume willing to offer up the ffu for cablist for the phone. The reasoning behind wanting the ffu or cablist for the Alcatel phone is because it is the only "official" tmobile phone that came with windows 10 mobile on it, which as we all know, the registry configurations has changed a little in windows 10 mobile from that of windows phone 8.1.

You are wrong. I've enabled recording for voice calls and it saves it to my Phone in C:\Data\Users\Public\Recorded Calls under the name of the person you recorded.

none of that for 928 so I'm out of luck, at least I can lock to 3g now but hardly ever needed to do that anyway
