Working with gloves on unsupported phones (Windows 10 Mobile) - Windows 10 Mobile

It's not very difficult to add a special switcher to Gestures & Touch app (Settings - Extras - Touch).
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Touch\Settings. Add key ImprovedTouchSupported, value = 1 (REG_DWORD, Integer).
Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Touch\Settings\FF. Add the same key.
Reboot the device.
But how does it influence on different devices?
I have messages, that Lumia 950 and Lumia 640 XL begin to work with gloves, and Lumia 550 - no.
But what about Lumia 950 XL, Lumia 650 and etc.? Can owners of these phones check?

yes, add new option in touch settings Lumia 950XL
for 550 and 650 cant test right now

An option appears on all the phones, but turning it on makes the phone really work with gloves only on some devices. Such as 950.

Not working on my 950XL.

This tweek works on any Lumia phone having Settings subkey.
I weren't able to write it on Lumia 535 but on others it worked .
tried on 550 , 630 , 950XL DS and more

Worked on 640
Before
After

It works on my 950XL from what i can tell though I don't think the sensitivity is as good as the one on my late 925
On a side note though the settings say vibrate when the navigation keys are tapped but they still vibrate anyway

[HOWTO] Shell Mod/Tweak

Start Screen Tweak
you all know that we (user with smaler than 5.0" screen) can change 6 small tiles to 8 small tiles that appear in start screen by changing "DeviceTargetingInfo"
but what about user with larger screen ?
okay, here is a way to change tile from 8 small tiles to 10/etc small tiles
1. open CustomPFD and move to Registry Tree (as always, eh. )
2. continue to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Start
3. on the TileColumnSize change the value to 10 or anything you want and WRITE
4. restart
#i'm not recommend user with smaller than 5.0" screen to use this tweak, it will make your tiles to very small (for me )
#maybe some user will facing lag when trying to arrange tiles
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disable BurnIn Feature in NavBar (730,640, etc)
i dont know why Microsoft enable this feature, but for me this feature is just an odd feature (sorry), imagine you apply color to NavBar, but suddenny the NavBar color change itself to greyish
for user that want to disable it, here is the way
1. open CustomPFD and move to Registry Tree
2. continue to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\NavigationBar
3. on the IsBurnInProtectionEnabled change the value to 0 and WRITE
4. restart
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#all mod/tweak is tested with my own device (730) and some friend device

if you want 10 small tiles, you must first change your DeviceTargetingInfo -> PhoneManufacturerModelName to "RM-938" then change your TileColumnSize to 10
if you not do this first you cant change your TileColumnSize
DeviceTargetingInfo is only change your Device Info to other Device Info, example if your default DeviceTargetingInfo is "RM-1040" (Lumia 730) and you change it to "RM-938" (Lumia 1520), The OS will recognize your device as Lumia 1520

i don't know, have you try it ? (I'm too lazy to reedit my registry hehe , sorry)
I might be asking a stupid question here....but is "customPDF" an app I have to open? I can't find it anywhere, even when seaching for it online.. I have a Lumia 930, do I need to root it before I can edit egistry and get more tiles on my startscreen?

first do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/win.../jailbreak-interop-unlock-windows-10-t3178140 to interop unlock.
then: http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...xap-custompfd-registry-editor-tweaks-t2981057 to install CustomPFD
CustomPFD is some kind of Registry Editor in Windows Desktop

Call recording (Lumia 640/640xl)

Hi!
Is there any way/hack to enable call recording on Lumia 640 (or any other lumia that isn't 950/950xl)? Still no words if Microsoon will implement it in W10M for other devices.
I think it will not come for existing devices ( non w10 flagship devices)
That's really bad if it stays only for flagships. My job depends on calls recording, I guess I'll switch back to Android...
Who cares about your job ?
550 is hardly a flagship and has it (you must manually select Windows Sound Recorder as associated app in system/phone settings!)
Tried writing 0 to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Phone/Settings? You can do that by injecting CustomPFD in the "Preview for developers" app!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lumia-950-xl/general/lumia-950xl-mtp-t3304658
Your phone probably has an easier way!
I need the value of PreferedRecordingApplication , from HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Phone/Settings. Someone with a flagship ?
Microsoft.WindowsSoundRecorder_8wekyb3d8bbwe
no option in system/phone setting?
Have you all keys from HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Phone/Settings?
I need to compare with a flagship registry. Who can post those reg?

Thank you for the suggestion, but setting 0 or 1 in RecordingFeatureDisabled makes no difference.
I think something like ShowCallRecordingSwitch is missing... cant create this new dword32.

If only Microsoft would be so logical... I don't think it can be done with a registry trick. Changing TextReplySetting value immediately changes the switch in Settings - System - Phone. Changing recording related values in registry doesn't seem to have any effect. I hope I'm wrong.
Maybe something is needed here too:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CallAndMessagingEnhancement\
I have only BlockingApp and CallOriginApp subkeys there.
If only a Lumia 550/950 user would be so kind to check these keys ...
Well...inside a lumia 550, 950 ffu file mounted we cant find some registry?
Here is another idea: reset the phone, change model name to Lumia 950 and then update Phone & Recorder from Store. Could it work?
No need to reset the phone... will try.
I guess you have tried call recorder apps.
No, will try to mode my phone as 950. Soon.

Lumia 650 default to InPruvate

Thanks for your help,

[W10] Wake up on double tap for tablets?

Hi guys,
Win10 topic almost dead but maybe someone here knows the trick and can share? Is there a way to enable W10M feature "double tap to wake up" on the regular W10 running on tablet with the touch screen?
AFAIR, it was just a registry change for W10M (but maybe I'm wrong and some additional dlls must be installed).
So, if you know how please share.
I have never tried honestly. There is an app called ModernGlance though that might help piece it together if you know what you're looking for. It has a dbl tap option to wake the device while the app is active. It's basically a mimic of the Lumia Glance screen for tablets. Maybe check it out?

I have a Dell Venue 11 Pro, and if it is not in sleep mode only the screen is off, I can tap once on the screen and the screen comes on. So this particular tablet has some fw and digitizer support some where...If the whole tablet is in sleep mode though obviously it won't wake since ACPI power settings are not like an ARM device (Always on/Always Connected).

Sometimes it's not an easy, especially if you are wearing a hard working gloves (it's not about me but about workers who's using my software and do a hard work)
The double tap to wake up features on lumia is handled by a small system service (whose name I forgot), it's made by nokia and it might even work in correlation with the display panel driver, so I doubt you'll get this to work on anything but arm and lumia devices. But people could try building a service/driver to achieve this on PCs (but I have a feeling that will have to be heavily hardware specific). I also doubt all tablets on the market support touch events while being locked.
Guys.... there is a hack. I'm searching for it, I remember using it on my 530.
EDIT: here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66993628&postcount=418
@gus33000, thanks for the info; yes, it looks like you're right and this is a Lumia specific feature. By the way, do you know how to change system power policy from UWP app? For example, I'd like to turn screen off after 3 minutes of inactivity but completely disable standby mode. I understand it can be done via standard control panel applet or registry provisioning but will be good to have provide that feature directly from UWP app.

OTG Support on Lumia 640 XL

Hello everybody,
I've read somewhere that Microsoft once said that it will be possible to connect usb device to a lumia phone, but as far as I know it never happened. So the micro-usb port that my Lumia 640 XL has is not OTG capable? Or it is just software thing? Can it be enabled via REGEDIT?
And also, by any chance is there a list of useful changes that can be made by editing registers on my Lumia 640 XL?
Thank you for any response! :good:
They will in incoming updates!
