Hi, does anyone know how to reset defaults in sounds and notifications so that every time I soft reset I don't need to go in and reset all preferances like sms notification etc?
Dear,
I guess it has something to do with the registry. Set everything up to your preference and use the Regedit to back up your registry & store it in a non-volitile memory. When you do hard-resent, restore your registry and there you go. I haven't tried it myself, but I think it'll work, anyone please verify this. Thanks
Cheers

Hi,
We can change the settings in the control panel manually. We can also change the related registry enties for some settings and make a soft-reset to activate the modified settings.
I would like to know if there is some way to activate the settings without a soft-reset after modifying registry, just by running a small program or invoking a function -- so the settings can be modified automatically.
So do you know any method, program or resource to implement this, especially for the regional settings?
Thank you!
Why you hve to make soft reset when you change the Regional settings???

I am talking about the method to switch the regional settings Automatically, not to set them Manually in Settings->System->Regional and Language.
So, after modifying the registry keys related to the regional settings, how to make the modified keys take effect without a soft-reset, i.e., how to let the system immediately know that this setting has been changed and please refresh the related data about this in the memory? Thanks!
Any solution, guys? Thanks!
Wait for a while, maybe.

Works for some other settings, but for regional settings, seems the only way to fully activate all changes is through a soft reset, some services need to be reloaded.

SmartTouch Registry Settings
I would try playing around (but not too much) with the SmartTouch Registry Settings, to see if adjusting any of them help. It may be possible to completely remove Messaging from SmartTouch, though I can't find a registry entry that pertains to it, specifically. It could be this one:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SmartTouch\Outlook Email]
"WheelCount"=dword:00000002
"Mode"=dword:00000004
"ClassName"="Inbox.MainWnd"
You can try deleting that entire key, soft reset, and see if it still adjusts the Text size.
You may also want to try reducing the sensitivity of the SmartTouch. These registry entries *may* have something to do with that (though I'm just guessing here):
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SmartTouch]
"FirstThreshold"=dword:00000008
"Threshold"=dword:00000008
Report back if any of those keys had an effect.
thank you, i'll carefully try...
still resizes. all it did is that i cant use touch pad to scroll up/down in the inbox

Did you try reducing the threshhold values also?
what value would make it less sensitive? . it is quite sensitive.
what value....
Not responsible
U can try this, but im not responsible if you have to hard reset your phone.
Using advanced config:
Menu>More Settings>SmartTouch
Delete Outlook Email
OK>Done>Yes to reset.
Let me know if that works for you.

You caught me. That's where I got the idea to see if it was listed by advanced config. wasnt sure how comfortable he was with registry editing.
Hi guys!
I own a Touch 3g (Jade). After the last (and first) Hard Reset my phone doesnt play a sound or vibrate when an sms arrives.
after the hard reset it worked without problems. I already checked the windows settings, a sound is activated. As well i activated the LED and a notification bubble. Those work without problems.
I've already been searching the registry and found the values wich calibrate the sms notification, but they where correct (ive read a post in this forum about that topic as well).
has anybody an idea of how to make my phone ring and vibrate again when sms arrive?
I would rehardreset it had times when that was necessary
is there no other option? i really dont want to reconfigure everything again

You don't need to hard reset, because if you do you're just gonna install the previous programs that corrupted your settings for SMS sound notifications.
That's all you need to know really. Everything else is just trial and error from there.
i've solved the issuie via installing smiley sms
thx alot for ur help
just go into your sound/alert settings, and pick a new sound or set it to vibrate. (is this not common sense?) it is built into windows mobile. i cannot believe you installed a 3rd part application that will just slow your phone down more, when the fix is just a settings change
didnt work, as i wrote i checked those settings, tried to change the sounds and even searched the registry....
but its a good solution, now i got smilies in my sms too
cheers
Hi there, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I was messing with some UI tweaks in SKTools. After I was done, everything was fine; but I wanted to see how everything looked with the large start menu option in system settings. After enabling it, I clicked to look at it. The entire menu was blacked out and I now have no way (that I know of) to get back to the settings to change the menu size. When you press on it, the phone will freeze.
So really what I'm asking is, anybody know a way to change that setting through the registry or something? .o.
Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys, really.
Welcome to forums
First and more important to know is what HTC device you have
Second, try to uninstall any new app recently added or in worst case do a hard reset.
Good luck,
Hi. I was messing with my phone last night and thought it would be a great idea to put a passcode lock on my messaging.well, i cant remember the pattern and now cannot get 2my messages. I am using handcent. I can get into the security settings and change/disable it for the home screen but i dont see anything for messaging. It was really late when i did this and i was functioning on half a brain cell, if that.i dont remember where i was when i set it..dugh..I hope i dont have 2do a hard reset but if so, oh well. Can someone please help me? I am using the stock rom btw. Thank you
I'm not sure where the files are located but I would start by locating the configuation files for handcent and deleting them. You'll lose all your customization on the settings, but it should eliminate the passcode.
Another thought: Can you access the messages in the stock messaging app?
go into settings>applications>manage applications> all> find the messaging app select it, and clear data. Post with results.
wahoo :-}
Thanks guys...I uninstalled the message majigger and it worked. No more tryin 2get all James bond super spy and lock all my stuff and then lock the stuff that's locking the stuf..lol...I appreciate ur time, for reals :
