ROM and radio in sig.
I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a registry key that sets the USBtoPC value for enabling or disabling the tickbox for "Enable faster data synchronization," or whatever it says. I'm trying not to reinstall the normal start menu to get to the setting as it isn't listed in Quick Menu for some reason, and I haven't been able to find the actual problem. It would be nice to be able to add this to XDA_UC for each new flash. (I think I have ORD)
Bump. Still having this issue. Someone please help!!
You're right -- it isn't in QuickMenu. It's somewhere in windows\mycpl.cpl6,6. Haven't quite got the correct string for a run... shortcut,
BUT
Mine is set to "Always ask", and here are the registry settings. Import/re-create manually, dis- and re-connect ActiveSync. The dialog box you want should pop up.
I haven't been fooling with the Windows Registry for 15 years for nothing. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the reply, but that isn't exactly what I'm looking for. In the USBtoPC application, there is a check box saying "Enable faster data synchronization." I'm using BirdieSync to connect to Thunderbird. I have to have this option un-checked in order to connect. I was just hoping that there might be a registry string that toggled this option so I could apply it and use it in the future in my XDA_UC folder.
Sounds like you want it set to "Always Ask" which presents the options screen to select type of connection. My settings should do just that. Have you tried them?

Your settings enable the pop-up notification when I connect to my PC. I already have it set that way. You can't access the checkbox that I'm talking about through the notification, though.
The first screenshot attached is of the notification window that you're describing. The second one is from tapping the USBtoPC link in the start menu. I'm looking for a way to have the circled checkbox UN-checked when I start up the device after a flash. I was hoping it might be something as simple as a registry string or something, but I was unable to find anyone with a related issue.
It normally wouldn't be a problem, but I can't use XDA_UC to set up Quickmenu for me because I can't access this setting unless I go through the normal start menu. It would be nice to be able to "set it and forget it" so to speak.
Sorry for not posting screen shots in the first place. I suspect that might have alleviated our mis-communication.
Until you posted the screenie, I wasn't aware there were 2 separate screens. I'll poke around the registry some more and see what I can come up with.
btw: Thanks for promoting me to senior member.

The second screen that is off limits with Quick menu is found via going to the normal start menu and selecting Settings-> Connections-> USBtoPC. I think that's the right path. I'm drawing from memory as I haven't used the normal start menu in ages.
As for the senior member comment, I had to give you credit for helping me!
Bump again.
There has to be someone here who knows something about this.
I'm begging!
I guess it's this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\USBtoPC]
"EnableAdvanceChecked"=dword:0
Maybe it needs something else to be set, not sure

That isn't the one, but thanks for trying. I thought that was the one before I posted the question. I'm starting to think the setting is just a ghost or something. I'm going to leave this thread open for a few more days and cross my fingers. If not then I'll just continue to manually install Quick Menu, so I can hit that box before hand.

I've hit those keys before as well without the box being unmarked. I have no idea what "EnableAdvanceChecked" does, but "SyncMode" activates Active Sync as the default connection, I believe.
Change the first key...

You WIN! Wow. It finally worked. The only key that needs to be changed is the first one, changing RNDIS to Serial_Class. I'm about to flash again to test out my new mortscript, and I'll see if dropping in this key fixes the issue too. I'll update when I finish.
EDIT: SUCCESS!!! I also found a packaged version of quick menu by colossus_r who has links to all of the settings that get lost when you move between start menus. A quick search for colossus_r start menu should turn it up. I'm going to go ahead and close this thread now. Thanks for the help!
I screw up with this
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers]
@="Serial_Class"
I exported this with a registry toolkit, but this is completely wrong. It was either my fault or the tool has a bug. Nvm.
Yes, just changing the DefaultClientDriver to Serial_Class changes what you needed. The other keys are just in case that your favorite chef deleted them from the registry. I don't trust his skills.

NEVER MIND - I 'm a noob!
Why it can't be done inside XDA Labs app? In order to reset password (because I forgot) I had to force close XDA Labs and then go to browser version because emailed conformation link redirected me straight to XDA Labs app again, where I can't reset password. Now that I figured out the trick, this question might look like irrelevant, but still I can't help wondering why such a simple task should involve all that going back and forth and force closing trickery. It's not that it's that difficult, but just including a friendly "forgot password?" question inside XDA Labs login section would be way easier and faster, I guess
BTW... There is no "UserCP" option available over here

Hello, I'm new there, but I have one thing I haven't got used to. It's the recaptcha position. If I start a blank thread, post or reply, the recaptcha shows the first above the edit boxes. I tick it and rewrite text to complete it. Then I start to write, what I wanted. After the input for the title is filled, there are shown some recommendations to similar threads. After filling the text of my post, I'll click on submit button (under icons if I write thread). But if I finally manage to write, what I needed (and I usually write slower, because I don't speak english very well) and click on Submit button, the recaptcha warns me, that it expired and I need to tick it and complete it again rolling up and afterwards down through the all content of the site. Couldn't it be made easier. You could e.g. reposition recaptcha task right before the submit button or so... It would be great.

im having an issue sometimes with the "captcha", sometimes when i try to post something i can only see the "Im not a robot" button as captcha, and after clicking and posting the reply, the forum says "Your captcha verification has failed" ¿?¿?
Its kinda strange, cause i cant see any other captcha.
Previously, you could login easily by entering your name and password right away in the bar at the very top. That was very convenient.
However, obviously this was considered too easy and convenient by some, so this was changed to make it more complicated and longwinded. A few days ago, an extra "Login" button was added to the top bar. To login, you're now forced to click on this stupid login button, and only then you can enter your login details.
What's more, now this login button is broken. Clicking it doesn't do anything anymore, it only redirects you to the main page. To login and write this post, I had to click on the "New Thread" button in this "About" forum and then use the login link in the upcoming message. That finally worked.
Please restore the previous convenient login modality, where you can login by entering name and password right in the top bar. The new way, being forced to click the stupid Login button first, is a real hassle and is starting to grate on my nerves

Until the error gets fixed, you can switch to a different theme, let's say, XDA 2013 Beta, and use its functioning login form to login, and then switch back to XDA 2015.
I took a look at the other themes - all of them (2013, 2010 and Classic) still have the name and password fields at the very top, as it should be. It has only been stupidly removed in the 2015 themes to make logging in a pain in the a$$.
I'm currently using 2015 Dark, because the other themes are hideous white eyecancer.

Whatever Its really poor that a forum with over 6 million registered users is not able to fix such elementary bugs in a couple of days. Someone should test the themes before they go online.

Hey, I'm not arguing with you - the issue I brought up actually has nothing to do with what you just said up there ^. Anyway, many people do test the themes extensively, and if there's a small bug here or there, the best thing to do is respectfully report it to the higher-ups, and then be quiet about it so you don't become a nuisance. Our admins (@MikeChannon, @svetius, @bitpushr) work hard every day to keep XDA running smoothly for all of us, and being impatient is a very bad way to thank them for their hard and excellent work.

There may be things that need refined but there was a reason that the extra step was put in place. Unfortunately a significant number of users were confusing the Log In and G+ Sign In buttons. Several users were entering their username and password then clicking the G+ Sign In button instead of the Log In Arrow that's part of the password box. This then caused them to get auto generated questions about associating their account with Google and confusion followed. We were having to deal with several users per day getting confused or unable to sign in under the previous system.

So if the pop up log in bar is no longer appearing for you, you need to give as much info as possible for us to replicate the problem. What browser are you using, have you tried turning off add-ins, does it do it on other browsers etc.

That may well be, but making logging in more of a pain and more complicated for everyone just because a few users were mistaking the G+ button for the forum login button is definitely a BAD IDEA. You really should consider other options to solve this issue, like moving the G+ button to a different location, where it can't be mistaken for the forum login button, e.g. moving it all the way to the left, and/or more clearly labeling the forum Login button, e.g. change the forum login button from ">" to "Login" and the "G+ Sign In" button to just "G+". Then no one would mistake the G+ button for the forum login button anymore.

My browser is Firefox 35.0.1. I haven't changed anything about my browser (i.e. no update to a newer version or any configuration changes), and I haven't changed anything about any of my add-ins either. The login button stopped working out of the blue and is only redirecting me to the front page anymore.
Something more I just noticed: Clicking on "[View]" next to "The Following User Says Thank You to MikeChannon For This Useful Post: " doesn't display the user(s) anymore, but instead redirects me to the homepage, just like clicking the login button does.

What do you mean "login / search forms work exactly one time"? What device are you using? If PC, please state screen resolution, browser, and OS version.

Seems as if I ever want to report a error again, i will try to be more specific.
I'm very happy that you already have fixed all of the reported bugs.
For the last days I have not been able to use with "XDA 2015" designs:
Log in button (The new form did just not show up, so i had no chance to enter my nickname/pw - sometimes it worked once after plenty of tries / clear browser cache)
Notifications button ( By clicking it, i was redirected to "www.xda-developers.com/# )
Search forms (Just did not work)
I tried Opera, Chrome, Chromium and Firefox // Win 7 + Win 8.1 // 1680x1050; 1600x900; 1440x900)
This indicates that there is a Javascript problem in your browser as it is not loading properly. Do you have any extensions like NoScript installed?
If you are on Chrome can you type Ctrl+Shift+J to open the Javascript console and let us know if there are any error messages in there?
Thank you.

Yes I use "scriptblock" but xda is whitelisted. Problem seems to be fixed serversided after some days. I did not change any of my settings and everything works again since today.
Just tried it, and the Login button works again, making the name and password fields appear, so I could successfully login.
Now if you would PLEASE put the name and password fields back in the top bar again, as before, so you don't have to press the Login button to make them appear, I would be most grateful.

I don't think we're going to revert. Most XDA members stay logged in, and for those that aren't members, putting the login form behind a click helps with mistaken clicks, and keeps clutter to a minimum. Thanks again for your feedback.

You have to select edit, then select advanced edit. That should be what you're looking for.
Sorry, I'm not seeing edit or advanced edit buttons under the text field. I see Post Icons, Image Verification, and then Submit Reply & Preview Post. I tried both Firefox and Internet Explorer, even turned off ad blockers.

If you click on the reply button, it will open a new screen allowing you to write your post, above the text field you will see lots of buttons, don't you see this "manage attachment" button in this create post screen like shown in my screenshot?
The UI may differ depending on the used theme of course.
No that button is missing for me. Tried to attach a screen shot, but it won't let me do that either (only put in a URL). Tried on mobile device too, and that button is not there.

This attachment feature is not present for members below 10 posts but you are above this limit so it should be there, I don't understand. Some ideas of tests:
- wipe cache of your browser
- try Google Chrome
- try another xda theme
- wait 24h or 48h and it may be fixed by itself
- or if still not working we may need admin assistance

I've no experience with IE but I'd the same issue quite a while ago on FF when I used the add-ons uBlock Origin and NoScript. For this reason, I've created an own profile for FF to use XDA.
Post reset
I had many posts years ago, had not been here for Ca. 2years and now I have 0 posts. So can't post link or attacment. /RANT/
