WM6 dialpad question...

My phone is the hermes spv m3100.
When I press Green (call button) I get taken to a dial pad where I can enter the name or number of the person to call (same as WM5) but with WM6 a lot of the top of the screen is filled with "UTMS Orange".
Is there a way to get rid of this as I don't really see the point with it?
Thanks

You should only have 20 pixels from the TOP to the DailNumber Slots. If you do not like what is being displayed, Do this:
1. Create a 120x20 pixel gif with anything you want and place it under /windows folder in your device. Now you have that image displayed on the Top part of the Dailer.
2. Soft Reset
NOW TO SHOW NOTHING, Do this:
-----------------------------------------
1. Download the attached image (The transparency color is a weird pink color so instead of explaining it, I decided to create and attach it.)
2. Place it in your device windows folder.
3. Soft Reset

Thanks for this. Is it not possible to remove this all together and have the space above keypad fully used for displaying the contacts as you type a number?
Thanks
I think if you install one of the tytn diallers it will revert to the WM5 layout and smartdialler.
Color or digits entered
Hello !
I'v installed a new ROM today, and I've just a little problem.
In my phone pad, when I enter digits, the color of the digits is not right for me (dark green instead of blank).
Have someone a idea to change this ? I tried a themen manager, but no chance to change properties in the phone manages.
Thanks

Samsung i780 cannot dismiss the ALS Notification

Hi every one and thanks in advance for your help.
On my Samsung i780, there is no way to accept/dismiss the ALS (automatic Line Selection) and this message takes the use of the left soft key rendering useless on the today screen.
I have tried the soft key software and the Shaps advance customisation but the notification message stay on always...
I would try to attach 2 pictures so everybody can have a better idea of my problem. I have make a GREEN CIRCLE pointing to the problem.
Any ideas / solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
I am having the same problem with I780PUHB3 phone ROM and russian Beeline SIM card. I figured out it depends on SIM card, so you may be lucky asking your carrier for a neew SIM card.
i had the same problem.. but when i install RealVGA, the icon is not in the taskbar anymore, and the left softkey is usable now, maybe is a problem with a space in the screen
I have/had the same problem, but unfortunately there seem to be no solution but to change the sim.
I tried it with two "3"-simcards in Austria: The new one seemingly doesn't have a second line.
remove it from registry
To make the notification disappear, remove the 2 entries under the following registry.
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell\Notifications\Active
REMEMBER to back up the registry first. But everytime u get phone service again u need to do the above again.
Anyway, hope this helps.

Make changes in registry as follows:
[\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
Enabled=0
Is there any way to keep the indicator at the top of the screen but suppress the notification message in the bottom left?
I'd like to know which line I currently have selected but don't want to lose the use of the left soft key.
The first registry change in this thread only works until you turn the phone on and off again which is unhelpful.
The second registry change in this thread gets rid of the indicator on the top bar - thus getting rid of the notification message - but that's not quite what I want to do.
As far as i know there is no way of doing what you want, we went through this a while back when i asked the question ages ago and i dont think it has been sorted yet.
Basically the samsung dialer skin brings the line 2 functionality, it is either a choice of using that skin with the line 2 and the annoying notification, or using the standard dialer without.
Its a tough call, i went for the second option. If i ever work it out i will be sure to let you know.
I would love a further fix for this. The problem with the fix below is that I cannot use a skin for the dialer and I much prefer some of the more finger friendly dialers...
[\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
Enabled=0
So any further ideas?
Hello people,
Has anyone solved this problem?
Thanks in advance

works on my i780 (heineken v.2.1 ROM) thx

how do i do it?

hi there i'd like to make some changes to my HD and i don't know how to do it or if it's even possible. so i want to ask u, maybe someone will help me
1. is there any way to disable or turn off the slider to aswer a call? i want to pick up a call only using soft keys
2. is it possible to change the album? i like the one on diamond 2 or pro 2. is it possible to install some features from diamond2? the callendar is better as well.
3. i found this opera tweak http://www.noeman.org/gsm/pocket-pc-smartphone-zone/76285-improve-wi-fi-speed-tested-htc-touch-pro-amd-touch-hd.html
now my question is if i can increase the number to 12 or 16 for even better speed or it will not work properly with higher number?
4. can i uninstall preinstalled programs? like games, calculator, internet explorer ect.
5. how can i put the S2U lock on the home screen so i could lock the phone with only one finger press. there is a "phone" shortcut on the left and "programs" on right, so maybe i could replace programs for S2U? i tried to change it but can't find the settings:/
i thinks that's it for now hope someone can help me. thanks in advance

it's in registry/HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila, you edit the HomeLSKPath for left and HomeRSKPath for right, also Text for what you want it to say
now, what exactly do you need to write to get s2u2, i don't know....would love to, great idea
1. I think you should completely disable touchflo3d's phonepad in favor of the default windows mobile one. You can do this by installing hdtweak and checking the appropriate option. I don't guarantee this because i haven't tried it anyway...
2. to have topaz/rhodium stuff you must flash a custom ROM (same goes for album). goto blackstone rom development subforum and you will find informations aplenty. Be warned that flashing a custom rom will void your guarranty and MIGHT brick your device (very very rare possibility, i don't think that in this forum not one single hd was bricked).
3. the link to that "opera tweak" as you call it refers to a hack to enable 54mbps wi-fi. it is not a opera tweak but a hardware/driver tweak. Increasing to higher numbers simply should not work and even MIGHT be damaging the phone's wi-fi receiver
4. no unfortunately not, preinstalled program are rom-dependant and rom files are protected and uninstallable. Again, flashing a custom rom that fits your needs is the way to go
5. as said fellow suisen, but you can also simply switch off the screen with the power button on top, when waking up it will be locked

Tweeks Questions!!

Hi guys .. I just updated my htc from the old great tytn to the tp2
and I LOVE it
but i have some questions.
I tried the search as the seniors adviced but i didnt find an answer , hope u forgive me if my search was not that good.
my questions so far are:
1- in the call history there is no colour diff between miss calls or incoming or outgoing calls...all in black and white ..just the arrows to diff them..
is there a way to make them with colours using the defult theme?
2- in the new start there is some icons can not be removed or even moved to another place ( home , people , Calender and setting )
is there a way to change that ? even just to move them below only?
3- to answer the phone we must slide the button to the grean area, which i find silly why i can't just tap the great area to answer, is there a way to modify that ?
4- i found a way here in another thread to stop the new useless notification area, and i can tab the battery, volum and the network provider as in the old versions.
but is there a way to make the new notification area usefull and keep it rather than just disable it?
5- is there away to see my inbox sms's in the normal fashion not in the conversations way ?? i noticed that i cant know from that conversation after that the time of each sms that person sent me.
sorry if my questions were silly
and i hope some one have answers for me
thanx
2. check the sticky at the top of the thread, there should be a registry hack to fix this
3. just hit the Send key on the phone & it'll answer
4. I installed Topaz Notification Manager & it adds the Battery Status to the notification area & if you select the button it'll bring up the Power settings. Don't care about the volume since thats what the volume rocker is for. You may want to give it a try.
5. download Advanced Config 3.3 (& .NetCF 3.5) & disable threaded SMS.
For 4 & 5 check the Cabs, tricks, yada, yada, etc sticky at the top.

Display Owner Information on WM Lock Screen

This may be my dumbest post ever, but I find nothing on the topic. I lost my phone 2 nights ago and a nice lady found it and took it home to contact me. By then it locked to the default WM lock screen. Because it had locked, she could not see owner information and returned it to the restaurant. I got it back today.
Question, absent a Manila editor or 3rd party app (e.g. S2U2) is there any way to display owner information on the lock screen of a wm 6.5 sense (manila) stock rom?
M$ must have thought of this but I have no idea how to do it. Sorry if there are 1,000 posts somewhere on this topic.
Thank you!!!

Seems like such a good idea, id also be interested in this!
I don't yet have 6.5 but in 6.1 you go to Settings>Personal (Tab)>Owner Information>Options (Tab) and put a checkmark next to "Identification information" for the setting "When the device is turned on, display:"
Has this setting been removed from 6.5?

Setting owner information
I have a UK TP2
The only way I can find to display owner info is
From Getting Started, Set background, Change background image, Items tab
Disable HTC Sense, enable Owner Into - there you can enter the data and set to display on start-up
I hope this helps

Thank you, but it does not show when the device is locked in Manila. M$ and HTC are soooo stupid!
On my HTC Touch Pro 2 once its locked i get the owner information when i wake the device, but it seems that once you press the screen to access the unlock screen, you cant get back to the owner information unless you unlock the phone. Its a bit stupid that when you press the power button to put the device to sleep it brings up the owner information every time, but when its locked it doesnt. Pretty stupid if you consider that the only time you really need the owner information to be constant is when you lose your phone or it gets stolen!
I've been googling the whole weekend and did not find anything. Still searching.
Does somebody have any idea about how to show owner info ? As TPC knows the way to move right/left/down the "slide" button, is there a way to add the owner info to the screen ?
(I know S2U does have this option, but I mean using the built-in new unlock feature in WM6.5)
Owner info on lock screen HTC TP2
Anybody who help me out with the owner info on the lock screen? It worked fine in the previous BIOS version and in the latest released BIOS update it 's gone.
I'm able to fill in all the owner details, but it's not displayed when I switch on the device.
Awaiting for a positive response
Kindly regards
Andries
This is something I'd like to do as well. My previous Blackberrys had this and it was a nice feature.
I'm not on wm6.5 but try using WM's built-in Lock feature. On wm6.1 and before, owner's info is displayed before showing the password screen
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/v6-5/Lock-your-phone-touch.aspx
Has anyone found a good solution to displaying the owner information yet? I had put it in the 'hint' but this only appears after you have mistyped the password several times.
Ok, I've found a solution. You can change the text that appears under the slider (usually 'slide'). I've changed to my name followed by my phone number.
You can find it here.

It's a good (provisory) solution !! I think it's the best way to tell whose is the device or what to do in emergency case.
Now, what about connecting what is inside the sentence in the .cpr file to another file ? Does somebody think it's possible ? Or maybe the .dll file could be adapted to read from the "username" keys in the registry ?? (sorry for my question, I have no idea about programming)
Another way
I changed my welcomehead.192.png file to my own picture, and included text in the picture with my name and a request to call a phone number if the phone is found. All you need to have is a program that can put out a 480X800 PNG and be able to add text.
EDIT: The file has to be moved to the \Windows directory. This file says up for almost a minute when the phone boots.

Thank you for the tip! Between getting my name and email in the lock slider, and my DL# and email addresses in the boot screens, I should be good to to for now...just need to install RemoteTracker!
Setting Owner Information on Touch Pro 2
The option to do this easily was removed in 6.5. To enable this follow the advice below:
1. Navigate to Settings, All Settings, Today
2. Click on the Items tab
3. Disable HTC Sense
4. Enable “Owner Info” and tap OK.
5. Enter the Owner information that you would like displayed on the Today screen.
6. Highlight the "Owner Information", and go to the Options tab
7. Check that the "When the device is turned on Display" Identification information is enabled
8. Go back to Item 1 and re-enable HTC Sense
9. The Owner Information will now show when the phone is locked
EDIT: My ROM's Chef said that selecting the 'Owner Info' option will not allow the 'Options' button to function even though 'Owner Info' is enabled for the ROM that I am currently using. However, I was successful in changing my lock screen text by using the 1st posted method above (Customize or Remove Lock Screen Text).
I edited both "TapOrSlide" and "SlideToUnlock", because I noticed that my custom text would not display if I received a notification. Also, keep the number of characters to a minimum, so that it displays correctly. If it is too long, the far left and far right characters will fall off the screen.
Hmm, wonder if there's a way to add additional lines to the displayed text???
Many thanks to the original poster for posing a question that I didn't even know I needed to know!

Thanks so much for this, however, for some reason the "Options" button is greyed out (unavailable) in the Today Screen Item Settings page even though I have Owner Info highlighted... Damn! May have to try the other method. Anyone have any success with either?
I've also sent a message to my ROM's Chef asking if this is a bug or whether this is an option that was somehow left out of the build that I'm using.

jamiemckee posted a good solution that I use. Make a reg edit to revert back to the WM6.1 Device Lock & do away with the 6.5 Lockscreen. Just your Today Screen shows.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen\Enable
Default Value: 1 (for Sliding lock screen)
Changed Value: 0 (for soft key lock a la wm6.1)
I found this because I actually WANTED to disable the default WM6.5 lockscreen as I prefer the soft key unlock, partly because of the memory the sliding lock uses, and also because I want to be able to see the gorgeous sense 2.5 interface when I turn my phone on to see the time.

This functionality has to be in the 6.5 OS somewhere. I used to have a TouchPro 2 with 6.1 and it displayed the owner information during power up. To get this information to appear on my Tilt 2, I had to download and install an app called SKTools. Now I have an applet in the Personal settings under the Settings option in the start menu where one wasn't before.
