I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but I don't see the manage attachments button under the text field. I searched the FAQ, but could not find if there is some post limit/minimum before being able to do this?

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.

I just realized, you meant edit an already existing post. What I am trying to do is attach a file to a post/reply.

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/

How to remove XDA Live Logo from Today screen

As so many people keep asking the question how do I remove the XDA live text from the main screen , I thought I would put a quick how to page on how to do it.
If its not done in this order it may not be persistant.
Open PHM reg editor
Scroll to \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\DeviceBeta
Change the Value to anything you want or delete the today string to have no user text display on the today screen.
Then Power down Via the power button (not the reset switch).
Edited , Typo
The key is actually located in: \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\DeviceBeta
How do I remove the XDA live text from the main screen? I really have searched and can't seem to find the answer!
Sorry, Couldn't resist.................

Very stupid question

So after having my new Tilt 2 for a couple of days I was cleaning out my inbox and I realized that because there is no d-pad I cannot select an e-mail without opening it, unless I have the keyboard out and use the arrows
This means that if I want to delete an e-mail that is not at the top of the list I need to press once to open, once to open menu and again to delete. Does not seem right.
I think I saw something that allowed the zoom slider to be used as a dpad of sorts but I actually like it the way it is.
I feel really stupid asking this and I did search but could not easily find an asnwer.
click on the small letter, you will see the menu that will allow use to manage the mail without seeing it.

Manually launch HTC Keyboard?

Is there a way to manually launch the keyboard?
The reason I ask is I my partner visits one of her forums on Phone and when it comes to adding posts (using a system not to disimilar to these boards) she can't get the keyboard to appear?
Any suggestions?
If anyone needs to know the forums are on babycentre.co.uk
Press and hold menu I think.
What do you mean by "manual launch"? When you click in the textarea or input field it shows up - is that not manual?

Please click one of the Quick Reply icons in the post above to activate Quick Reply?
I suspect that the forum doesn't support the latest Android browser she used to have issues browsing the site when she used her g1 but she could at least edit the text box
It's ok I disabled javascript on her phone and can now use the reply box. Cheers anyway. Oh and holding menu did nothing on either of our desires. :/

One solution could be to manually relaunch your partner, but that is probably a more cumbersome and less satisfying method.

[SOLVED]USBtoPC issue

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.

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]

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.

[HOW TO] Creating custom LOCAL homepage for stock web browser (updated)

Hi,
Here I show you how to create custom local homepage for the stock web browser.
So, basically, when you start the web browser, it will load this custom web page.
This is very useful, for example: You can create quick shortcuts for all your frequent visit of websites.
(1) Download the attached "bookmark.zip" and put it in the a folder, for example \Download
(2) Extract the content, for example in \Download\bookmark
After this second step, you can access \Download\bookmark\bookmark.html
(3) Open the stock web browser, go to:
Settings --> General --> Set homepage
(4) Choose "Other"
(5) Set to:
file:///sdcard/Download/bookmark/bookmark.html
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There you go!
You can modify the bookmark.html as you pleased.
bookmark.zip has been updated.
Disable page zoom added:
Remove the "initial-scale=1" in the bookmark.html as shown here:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
There is already a most visited sites option in the browser so I'm not too sure why I would want to do this?
Admittedly this isn't really needed, but is quite cool. I've just started learning html/css. So I will have a play with it later.
Sent from a phone that is not running ICS
Because this is the fastest way to get all your favorite websites!
Start the web browser and it is all there, right in front of you ... With all the thumbnails, ready to visit
There, two clicks you got the page.
Even better, when you go back by clicking the back button, you will see all those shortcuts again
Efficient ... Fast ...
And ... You can customize the way you want!
On the other hand, your way is too slow.
You need to start the browser, long click the back button, click the most visited, and you might need to scroll ...

Incorrect. There is a 'most visited sites' homepage you can assign in the settings. Plus if you want to talk about efficiency for certain sites why don't you just add a bookmark widget to the desktop?
i will try this.thank you
Right, you right about that most visited as homepage ...
But, the order can change at any time depending on your frequent visit. Also, I dont like the white background that consume more battery power.
With my way, I can have fixed loaction of thumbnails which for sure easier to navigate.
And because of that, we can have flexibility to arrange the thumbnails the way we want
Bookmark widget ... problem is that I must swipe to that home, and I dont like to clutter my launcher! Dont forget that widget consume more memory and might slow down your launcher if redraw is required!
So, still, my solution is better, faster, more flexible

Hi,

Do you know how to format the <table> or use CSS so it will utilize the whole screen?

So, please please please ... if you are HTML/CSS expert ... help us!
Thank you

Is this what you mean???
<table> width 100% does not work.
But, I found it ... We need to prevent "zoom" which can be done using this:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>

This will give you the correct view
