I've built a system where certain words get underlined, and if you let the cursor linger there, a small explanation of that term appears.
This is controlled from the XDA-developer encyclopedia forum, where each topic is a term, and everyone can add explanations.
For instance: the word Wallaby has been underlined with a thin green dotted line. If you linger there, you should get the encyclopedia entry for it.
I'm starting to create some entries, but please all feel free to add entries for difficult terms.
WoooooW that's great idea
Hello Peter Poelman

Hi there,
cool feature. But it works only with the InternetExplorer.
No helping popup with Netscape 7.1.
Greetings, Kaputter :shock:
Popup Killers
I use Panicware's popup killer, internet advertising's gotten way outta hand, which cancels out your forum's popups. There are ways to set the XDA forum as a url not to kill popups. As more and more people try to get rid of these popups, you may suffer with your new feature.
You'd thing these advertisers would learn from the home phone soliciting ... I disconnected my home phone service cuz it got so bad (50+ unsolicited calls a day!).
Maybe if we all disconnect the web, these advertisers will get the message ... yeah, right!
Kill all pop-up advertising, pay what-ever it takes but kill these advertisers!
There, I'm better now .. back to XDA'ing ..

I guess I'll manage...
But if you know of good MODs to use here, or have good ideas for new features yet unwritten, by all means please let me know...
I have 12 contacts on my Cphotodialer. I wanted to know how you could add more. Say what if you wanted 30 or 40.... Would you just make a new registry entry and that's it. Know cpr or xml change? Just wondering. Think it would be nice to have some more.
Just registry entries. Add more pages, under hklm/security/chome/defaultsettings/cphotodialer and hklm/software/microsoft/chome/photodialer ....
I tried to just copy the lnk file for contact 12 and paste it into a different directory so that I could change what it said and then rename it to contact13, but after I do that. Nothing happened in my panel. I updated the registry in both places with a page 13 exactly as the other contacts are in the panel. I want to know what I am doing wrong. If I have to create a new contact13h.lnk and contact13m.lnk files, how do you create a lnk file? thanks for all the help
did you change pages at the bottom of hklm/security/chome/defaultsettings/cphotodialer it looks like
Pages Page1,Page2,Page3,Page4,Page5,Page6,Page7,Page8
I am looking for upwards of 20-25. I know that seems like a lot, but I like to have options. I just wish I knew what to do to make them myself. I don't want to have to depend on you guys to the hard work like some people do. I am just thankful to have the knowledge guys.

you do realize it will be quicker just typing in the first 3 four letters of any part of the name and the contact will show up. from home screen.
Yeah, but I still would like the option to choose. Plus, like I said it's nice to have the knowledge. "He who hath knowledge, hath power."

Thanks a million bro!! This totally did the trick. I feel so stupid for not noticing this on my own. Guess cause I've been going light speed for too long. Anyway, works perfect. Rock on ROM master.

Hello all. I just received my brand spanken new Touch Pro 2 and im currently playing with it to figure it out. Now most of you vet WinMo users know generaly what you want/need to do with your phone as soon as you get it. You know the tweaks that need to be done to make it faster, and what Aps work better than the defaults. While i know that knowledge is spread all around the forum, i though it would be nice if we collect that knowledge and pool it into one thread so that new owners can go right to it, and pick out everything they want with out hunting..
To that end, now that i am a new owner, i would like to know what I should do to it first and foremost. Ive heard their is a way to tweak the camera to make it preform better (for instance), and i know theirs a way to turn off, or make a quicker way to switch on and off 3g. This is manly the kind of stuff im looking for..
Also. Ive seen a recommendation on how to charge the battery for the first time. Pretty much Anything you guys can think of that new owners should/or need to do to get their Touch Pro 2 working in Top order. I would like to know this (so i dont end up running a slower version cause i missed something..
So how bout it? (i will edit this post as suggestions/links are posted)

That is a *little* more than i want to be throwing at first time WinMo users. IVe been using smart phone edition for a while so i can atleast find my way around, but given this is a new phone, and my first time using a full Winmo, i dont feel quite comfortable (yet) playing around in the registry. What im looking to collect here is "Out of the box" type of adjustments that most here would say should be made.
That other thread is good for later, but i just want to get the "ok you have your phone, now set it how it should be" mode.

excellent! which one of the 645,000 links would you suggest i use for s2u2?
Personally, I'd start with the first one, or maybe the second one since that one is on XDA- Dev. But if you use google in a different way than me and start at the back, that' s your choice.

Hi. Welcome to XDA When I first signed up to xda I had no idea what I was looking for or what I even wanted to do to my phone. Being familiar to the whole forum edict rather than asking questions that have already been answered a million times over I noticed the handy dandy search function.
An example: Regarding you above question I searched, "rhodium custom sms tones for contacts" and was quickly presented with:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407933
I have no personal experience with this program but I imagine that you are not the first person to request such a thing so there are probably plenty of options out there Youtube is also a good reference source since you can search your phone and see custom things people have done to it. Check out the rom section for an all over makeover for you phone.
Xda's database is intimidating to say the least but sorting through what you need is pretty simplistic Good luck pimping you phone
Seems like for the last week or so the forum jump tab that was located at the bottom/right of the screen has gone missing. So now the only way to go to another subforum is to click at the home icon located at the top/left of the screen. Any reason this option was disabled, or is it just me?
Srsly? No one else has this missing?

Yes, missing for me as well. I LOVE that feature!

Yup, we removed it because we found an opportunity to improve performance on the site. Turns out that little drop down include a TON of HTML calls.
Our impression was that few people used it. If it turns out that it is greatly missed, we'll bring it back, but we rather enjoy the slight boost in I/O performance.

Sucks that there isn't some way to to quick jump, or navigate back from the bottom of the page, to at least the last forum browsed. Apparently not many people do use quick jump because its not so much missed judging by the lack of traffic on the subject
Bummer hope they bring it back.
I always miss it when it's removed (I've seen it for the same reason on other forums), but I know it does make quite a load on the server.

I miss it. Forum jump was a great tool, saved time by not having to go to index to change sub forum.
