Roger's ROM - anyone know how to disable "smartphone" banner ...

Roger's ROM - anyone know how to disable the red "smartphone" banner ...the file is "Rogers_branding.gif" I would like to not change it, but disable it completely. Also the startup/shutdown screens - can they be disabled, not edited?

You'd have to go into Registry and search for Rogers_branding.gif and delete all the values for the keys. Do NOT delete the keys. Just the values. Then it will disappear.

EDIT: Never mind.

Go to and change/create:
HKLM/System/Shutdown - 1 - values --> value name: Splash --> value data: \Windows\HTC_LogoImg_320x240.bmp
HKLM\System\Startup - 1 - values --> DWORD with value name: Duration - value data: 1000
STRING with value name: Splash - value data: \Windows\ms_splash.pnq
You can not edit a string or dword. So you have to delete and create!
Copie ms_splash.png to your windows folder. (change jpg into pnq)
- change the regkey: hklm\software\microsoft\shell\rai\msbranding values bannerimage value name in "none"
- change the regkey: hklm\software\microsoft\shell\rai\mscdial values bannerimage value name in "none"
Restart and your phone and startup and shutdown are like the HTC roms and all the Roger branding is gone..

Instead of deleting and creating strings you can just change the strings under these keys:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Startup\
HKLM\Software\HTC\Shutdown\
The keys here are used by the dll, so you don't really need to change anything else for the startup/shutdown...

question
when changing the start up screen
can you change it to an animated gif file ?

Yes. I'm pretty sure it has to be .gif though.

wm6.1 dash - how to copy and paste text?

is this possible?

yes depending what feature you are in trying to copy and paste.

try vito's "copypaste".
I find it very handy, althought it doesn't work in every app....
Here you go:
Info --> http://vitotechnology.com/en/products/copypaste.html
Download --> http://vitotechnology.com/en/products/download.php?ID=1867&BID=24
Hope it helps you.
Cheers!

6.1 has a copy and paste feature. Y have him download a program. lol

Well, Mikey, I thought the 6.1 copy and paste feature was restricted to some of the MS apps that come bundled with OS and not system wide...
If it's not, would you be so kind to teach us how to use it/enable it system wide?
Thanks in advance and cheers.

Guys in 6.1 you do not really need to enable it, it is built into the ROM if you are for example in a text message and have written a whole bunch of stuff that you would like to copy click the "menu" button the click "6 copy/paste" then "select text" select the text then click menu again and click copy and do the same for paste. Hope this helps

Opera Mobile

Hi all
I have a couple of problems with Opera Mobile and I was wondering whether anybody knows a solution. Firstly I can't seem to enable Opera to open more than two tabs at a time, which I find annoying. Secondly, does anybody know how to enable flash from websites within Opera? I did notice that this question had been asked before but that there wasn't an answer. I've installed the Flash 3.1 which was taken from a 207XX build of WM6.1. Should I install the official Flash Lite 3.1 Distributable instead? I understood that this was a stand alone player.
Despite my signature I'm using the HTC TP2 with a stock WWE ROM from HTC Europe.
Cheers

Opera Mobile 9.7 open beta should be out tomorrow (Monday).
If you can, please install it and let us know how tabs & flash work?

I think that's just a rumour. No official confirmation.

To change the number of tabs
From within opera go to
opera:config
select User Prefs
Maximum Tabs - choose your preference
Then scroll down to "Save"
Hope that helps.

to watch flash vids with opera(embedded videos) you need to add text string to axobjects.ini(axobjects). i have done it and it works. you need to go to app data,opera9 and use a text editor and enter this string of text:
go here in file explorer - \Application Data\Opera\axobjects.ini to support flash
CODE:
[Shockwave Flash]
Allow=Url|Embed|Object|Scripts

hmmmmmmmmm very strange as it works with all versions of opera. what text editor did you use. you need to go to app data-opera9 and edit file axobjects with a text editor. enter the text string for shockwave player as is. i usually put it in the middle of all the text. also have you installed dvhaflashlite 3.1 as that one works best

Yes, I found this; it would keep ignoring the setting, or reset it. Eventually my TP2 decided that it would use more tabs, after a few restarts and device resets where I doggedly kept changing the tabs up to 5. Very odd, but persist with it. I had to do this twice (once after a hard reset), it was a struggle each time, and I still have no idea why it eventually fell in line.

Hi ianjd
I found that the answer was to manually edit the opera.ini file in:
\Windows\Opera9\
Find the bit with Max Allowed Tabs.
Cheers

Ah, thanks; that'll be useful the next time disaster strikes!

[Tutorial] (Default camera) How to set unsupported third party apps as default camera

In this post I want to teach you how to change your default camera to (almost) any third party app you like. Let's go!
Tested on my Lumia 535 and working
What you need:
-Interop tools by @gus33000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
First you should find your third party camera appID you can do this by interop tools. Open interop tools, go to applications, package list, and then choose the app you want to see it's details.
The first Section "Name" is appID that is something like this:
6fca829e-0622-478c-848f-1175daf3bd5a
(That code was for camera 360 sight)
Write down that code somewhere
Open registry editor. Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Photos\Shared\CameraSettings
Then open DefaultCameraAppID
The default value is Windows camera appID. Copy that as a backup for when you want to change it back. Now replace your appID with the default one. Don't forget to include the brackets:
{6fca829e-0622-478c-848f-1175daf3bd5a}
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
DONE.
No restart needed. You can now test it using quick action, lock screen, or with camera shutter button.
Hope you enjoy that:laugh:

Could you be more specific? What is the problem?
Did you do all the steps?
Or this key doesn't exist?!
Is your phone interop unlocked?

I tried with proshot classic trial version and it worked. I don't have the windows 10 version. probably you made some mistakes in typing or you may have forgotten these brackets { }
proshot classic trial appID : {3d6a3d7e-5aca-4aee-b059-590b9f53cc13}
P.S. My build is the same as yours.

Yep! I don't have proshot
Maybe there's a problem with appx's?!

It is easier to make xap/appx with swaped GUID to make it see by OS in default camera menu

Man that worked nicely for me! Thank you!
Although most of the "non-original" camera apps seems to take longer to launch.
Furthermore, I was not satisfied with going to the registry and editing the strings everytime I wanted to change the default app so I did a little digging.
TL;DR: I've found out how to add a new app to the default camera list in the settings menu on Windows 10 mobile
Complete description:
I found this original document from Microsoft made for the OEM on how to enable third party camera launch above lockscreen:
https ://docs. Microsoft .com/pt-br/windows-hardware/customize/mobile/mcsf/configuring-oem-lens-apps-to-launch-above-the-lock-screen
I used interop tools to create a folder as sugested on the link at software>Microsoft>ph otos> LensApps>{#AppID}\
The folder has to have the AppID name inside brackets. Each AppID folder has to have a Key named "Title" in wich the value is a string with the firendly name wich will be showed in the settings (ex: Camera360)
Well, that did'nt worked out, so I kept digging and found an already existing folder called "DefaultLens" located at software>Microsoft>ph otos>OEM>DefaultLens wich had the same pattern explained in the link. I suppose this is the adaptation for windows10 mobile, since the link is for WP8.1.
So, inside this folder I created a new entry (folder) named as the app ID for the 360 "{6fca829e-0622-478c-848f-1175daf3bd5a}". inside this folder I created the "Title" Key and set the value for "Camera360" (string). Now if I go to the camera settings I can choose between Camera and Camera360. If i choose the second one, it Works just as expected.
The problem I had was under lockscreen. If i pressed the camera button (on my 830) it went to the lockscreen and I have to put my pin before opening the camera. This can be solved creating another key inside the folder called "MinVerAboveLock" in wich its value (string) must be, as the name suggest, the version of the app. The Camera360 info on the app shows version 1.1.2, so I've put 1.1.1 as the value and now it works just as it should.
I haven't tried out Proshot with this, but a can't see any reason it wouldn't work, as when I changed the appID using your suggestion in the original post it worked.
I must say, though, tht de camera360 tends to take substantially more time to open. Anyhow, doing this I believe you can set up up to five default cameras in the list (as the link says) for fast/normal changing and test the one wich better suits your needs.
So, theres, that. Tell me if it Works for you! Cheers.

I'll try it soon ( 2 weeks later ) because I don't have time now.
BTW you can have Lumia camera by doing a hard reset and then stoping apps from getting updated automatically.

Hey guys!
I've faced a problem. After downgrading to 8.1 and then upgrading to 10 again, there's nothing in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Photos.
