Solving the backlight issue - HTC Vox

Hi,
Many of you may encounter some problems regarding backlight after:
- modifying default settings for backlight
- installing TOMTOM or TCMP
To solve this, just modify the registry key (using regedit if you unsigned your phone, or using http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/fr/index.php?soft=1399)
HKCU / Control Panel / Power => values => put 30 for 30 seconds, 60 for 1 mn, ...

many thanks from italy. was wery strage issue
andrew

I installed my TomTom Mobile 5.2 and the light never went off since.
Excellent, this works great!

its all on default
when i go there i see only one string and it says (value not set)
what value i need to change ? can i get more specific info
please

I'm also alittle curious to what i actually need to change. There is only one value there, and it is set to 4, other then that there's just the add-key.

on mine it was set to a really long number like 96237342 or something after i installed core player. i just removed it and set it to 60 and it worked.

Thanks alot, from South Africa... Thinking that i was about to restore to factory defaults, AGAIN... help appreciated...

Thanks a heap - works also on CorePlayer, even though I shouldn't have to mess with the registry because of an app that cost $25.

mine was "Display", set it up to 30 it will work

Good work laita56
first of all, merci beaucoup laita56
as laita56 explained it very well already (thanx mate), i will try to add some more infos for the curious of us.
if followed the steps that laita56 did (see first post), you should already have "Mobile Registry Editor - v1.1" on your
computer. Please start that application.
You should see this:
know click on the "+"-signs of
+HKEY_CURRENT_USER ,
+ControlPanel ,
+Power ,
click on the folder Power (the one that you just expanded)
in the right half of "Mobile Registry Editor"-window, make a right click and select "New > String Value"
till here the whole procedure looks like this:
in the "New String"-window that has opened, you have know to input the disered values. First we name it, in "Value Name" we type "Display". Secondly we will give the Timeout value, in "Value Data" we (as example) "30" for 30 seconds.
this looks like this:
finally click on "Ok" and we're done!
Softreset your phone to activate the new values.
Happy reg editing!

Mysterious re-appearing problem identified and eliminated
I will continue on this thread as it best matches the problem that many are experiencing. While the solution the "problem" that many applications are creating is outlined below, many will "mysteriously" see the problem reappear again after some time.
Well, the reason is simple: In their infite wisdom, HTC have chosen to replace the default display timeout handling (stored in HKCU\ControlPanel\Power value for Display) that seems MS Standard by a private setting - that allows to have different display timeouts if running on battery or on AC.
Unfortunately calling the settings panel for the power-settings will (by accessing the HTC tooling for manipulating these values) enforce the HTC-handling by deleting the key Display at HKCU\ControlPanel\Power and thus bring back the old problem again!
So what?
Well there is a key "OnlyDisplayTimeout" which has to be created in HKLM\Software\HTC\PowerManagement and set to "1" - this will change the HTC panel behavior to the MS intended and it will work on that single value from then on only.

Creat a new value...nameisplay value:what u like...15 30 60 etc.
it'll work well!

You need to create a key "Display" (type DWORD) and assign the value for the timeout. You must create the other key "OnlyDisplayTimeout" (type DWORD) and assign the alvue "1" as well to keep the settings of "Display" alive even after calling the Settings panel Power options.
You can even ONLY create the key "OnlyDisplayTimeout" value = 1 as from then on the Setting-Power will exactly work on the Display key - even create it if it was not there.

Today plugins WM2003

Is it possible to eliminate specific items from the "today items list" without uninstalling programs altogether? I need to get new programs to show up in this list, and apparently the limit is 13. Any help here please?
Hi
I'm not sure what your problem exactly is... Today screen app bars ?
Go to Settings -> Personal -> Today -> Items <tab>
You can tick/untick today screen elements there.
Thanks, I can tick and untick in that list OK, but if I add I new programm that needs such plugin like tomtom5 or any other and the list grows beyond 13 then some programs dissappear from that list because the limit is apparently 13. So I can't tick what is not shown because I have gone beyond the stupid quota of 13, so my question is how do I get rid of programs in that list that I don't need without actually unistalling them. I hope is more clear now. Thanks again.
I didn't know that that was a limitation, but go into your registry
HKLM > Software > Microsoft > Today
Export that, then remove all entries you don't need, and if you need to, import only the ones you do need later. Slightly dangerous, as ever with the registry, but it'd work.

Hi
Oobviously you've got a lot of software installed on your PPC
On the other hand it's preety bad that they haven't thought about more than 13 today apps.
Ok.
I've found registry keys that are responsible for today's mess
\HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\
Just use your registry editor and cut the crap you'll never use in there.
It works. They disappear from "items" selection.
If you don't have a registry editor, take this one. It's the simpliest, and best one I know.
Have fun.
EDIT: LOL. The problem was already answered before I've finished polishing my post
Is this a known limitation >13? Eeks.
I'm writing my own plugin, vacuuming up functionality from the other plugins I'd like to use, so hopefully I'll end up with basically one plugin only, but hypothetically, any limitation is still a pain.
V
True XDA-Developer eh ?
If you're making your work available to public please tell where I can find info about your development progess etc.
robal:
I've posted a little elsewhere about my plugin, VJEphemeris, which is a long term work in progress.
Thus far it contains an analog clock, date with popup calendar, alarm clock setting and notification (cus you don't bloody know when it's set and on!), Quote of the day, autosizing according to length, missed call notification, last sms details, temperature, volume control, battery status, current phone operator (for dual sims), multi-bank launcher facility and theft protection (detects if user is using a non authorised sim, and then sms's me with the phone number (and shortly, cellid), permitting me to sms it back causing it to format the sd, optional hard reset and I'm considering optional bricking - thanks Olipro).

VJEphemeris is a continuous test bed of ideas I'm trying to implement. It's unlikely to be released, or at least as is. It's currently entirely customised around my use (although it's all too damn skinnable: I haven't gone into designing a UI yet, I'm just making it easy to use one thumbed! Try cutting out the screenshot and see how you thumb rests naturally on the important stuff. I'm trying to make it nicely ergonomic).

Impressive, please let me attend my kids and will let you know soon if I can solve this. Thank you very much
Problem solved thanks to you guys. Now I can have everything I want. Cheers
Whats providing the weather details? Looks Like the BBC, what are you using for that?
Seahorse - is that to me? I think I'm using weather panel, and that downloads from its own website.

Hi Vijay is there anyway you could release a usable version? I love the clock and Picture links.
viJay!... temperature?... Can you tell us how to get it?... Thanks! :wink:
batter temperature is built into the os api. when i get in front of a pc next week send me a pm if you still need code.
the clock isn't releasable yet, i've had no time to work on it because of other projects for this board... will continue with it as soon as poss. i've got big plans for it

Today Plugins
I've come rather late to this thread but have exactly the same problem.
However using Resco Registry editor I have removed several plugins but they are still shown in the list and some like Inbox and Tasks etc cannot be deleted.
Your further assistance would be appreciated.
Brian Leach
brian, they're system plugins. They don't need to be removed. Just disable them from Today settings and leave them as is IMHO.

Sorry to revive this old thread. But my today screen got wiped out and only date/owner/calendar/tasks are available now. Is it possible for you to describe what this today registry registry looks like? I have each one of the items inside the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\ registry, but they're not showing up.
Thanks
steph280:
Under Items there is a key for each of today items (their names are what you see in the listbox). Under each of this keys there is a value named "DLL" which contains the name of the DLL that actually creates the plug-in. Make sure those files are where they suppose to be. (if there is no path the file should be in windows directory)
If you don't see the item keys, but have the DLLs in place, you could try to create the keys with their names and following values inside:
DLL (string) filename.dll
Selectability (dword) 0 / 1 / 2 (depends on the plug-in)
Type (dword) 4
Options (dword) 0 / 1 (1 if the plug-in has options dialog)
Enabled (dword) 1
Order (dword) place from the top you want it in.
Some plug-ins may add custom values to this key to use for their settings.
If you have many third party plug-ins you should just re-install them to fix the problem.
Hope this helps, good luck.

Problem with button after installing Voice Command

Hi!
I have installed Voice Command and all was working great until first soft reset...
Something bad happens to harware button nr 4 (that with a bubble, next to
camera button). All functions mapped to this button are activated only
after holding that button for a few seconds. If you just tab that button -
nothing happens... If I uninstall VC - problem disapears...
I know that this is an old problem (even on WM5 after installing VC), but
I don't find any solution... And I know that there is a solution, becouse on ROMs
when VC is included, that button is working OK...
So dev's or anyone - pls share with me
I have compared 3 registry and files snaps, bout I don't find there
any solution... So if anyone can find what registry change is responsible
for that strange button behaviour, I'll be grateful...
So:
Result1.txt is compare of snaps taken before and after installation of VC
Result2.txt is compare of snaps taken after installation, but before and
after first soft-reset
It is easy to read - all lines starting with < are old values, and lines
starting with > are the modified/new ones...
Thx in advice! This will help not only me - but all the people who are
using VC
I have found an solution for this! OK, maybe this is not real solution
(still needs someone to find what registry change is responsible for this weird
button behaviour), this is more like backdoor for button problem, but it works
Now I have something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It looks great, huh? I don't remenber when I have possibility to map
all the button functions! (I think that in last official WM5 ROM)
OK, You need a registry editor, WM6 without Voice Command (I haven't
tested if this will work, when VC is build into ROM - besides, only with VC from here,
announce for incoming calls will work), Voice Command Fixed for WM6 and
offcourse HTC Universal
Note: This fix will work only if your "Record" button has been messed up
after isntalling VC!
After applying this fix, you will have to possibility to use Record button
as before installing VC, and you will have a new function - other action
mapped to Press & Hold for Record button!
1. Open you registry editor and navigate to: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
2. Find key 40C4 and rename it to 40C5
3. Create new key and mane it 40C4
4. Open key 40C5, copy all values from there to 40C4 key
5. Open 40C4 and change value of Name to "Record (Hold)", for example
You Keys key should look as here:
And it is done! Now in Settings -> Button windows all buttons
will be functional as before installing VC, and you have received
a bonus - a new action key to map
PS. I still search for a proper solution, why record button (40C4) has
transformed into 40C5 after isntalling VC! Pls, I know, that many
devs here know WM registry well - pls look at my compare results....
This will help a lot!
Thanks! I've been using KDSkamal's WM6 Beautiful Edition which is nice and fast but, among other minor things, didn't have the Record (Hold) button visible. Using your suggestion I was able to successfully restore and map it.
I tried this, and I get the announcements via handset speaker, but not over BT... Even after changing the configuration settings to use regardless of free time, and to use for BT all of the time and again to use BT if available... I did not have to use the VC BT Fix by Zajules after installing this... and BT worked as before...
We are closer, good work, but how did you get it to work over BT... Once we know that, Microsoft should compensate all that have worked to make this a reality... Just wish I was one of them... Ha...
Thanks Mr. Groch!
I was going to try this registry fix on my Mogul, but I already had 40C5 key, and didn't think I should try to rename another to this one.
Instead, I was able to just reassign the record button using AEButton Plus and it's working fine.

add Reboot to Quicklist

Hi
Is there anybody that could help me add Reboot to the Quicklist. I have a Qtek 8020 (Feeler) with a custom wm6 rom and that has the reboot option. I've tried to add:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2ABD8635-9808-4c4c-943B-8173B805FD40}\InProcServer32]
@="HTCquickList.dll"
AND:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\QuickApp]
"5"="{B7A5E609-3E46-442d-8D32-65926EDA6795}"
"4"="{69E9215B-91B0-461b-A3B6-165EBA32DAE1}"
"3"="{0D519EC6-315A-4693-AF1B-B2DA865AC1C7}"
"2"="{2ABD8635-9808-4c4c-943B-8173B805FD40}"
"1"="{6D48AB52-635C-4c6a-8508-9D32A0F07863}"
(Number 2 is the reboot option)
and also copied in HTCQuickList.dll to the windows folder. I just get a some squares as option number 2 instead of the word Reboot and it does nothing when I choose option number 2...
Could anyone please lead me in the correct path
Thanks.
Finally
I got it working by searching through the registry on the Feeler. For those of you who would like to know:
You need to add these registry settings:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2ABD8635-9808-4c4c-943B-8173B805FD40}\InProcServer32]
@="HTCquickList.dll"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCQuickList\0]
"ResOver"="1050"
"FilePath"="reboot.exe"
"CmdLine"=""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver]
"1050"="Reboot"
And change this one:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\QuickApp]
"5"="{B7A5E609-3E46-442d-8D32-65926EDA6795}"
"4"="{69E9215B-91B0-461b-A3B6-165EBA32DAE1}"
"3"="{0D519EC6-315A-4693-AF1B-B2DA865AC1C7}"
"2"="{2ABD8635-9808-4c4c-943B-8173B805FD40}"
"1"="{6D48AB52-635C-4c6a-8508-9D32A0F07863}"
Originally you only have four in
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\QuickApp] so you will need to change the order. Number two is the reboot option.
After you've done this you need to copy HTCQuickList.dll and reboot.exe to the /windows folder.
Then you have the reboot option in QuickList as option number two
I've attached the two files you need.
Awesome, my friend!
I just love it.
Thanks a lot.

I've set it to position '3'.
Just a little question: What is the value 'ResOver' and why is it set to '1050'?
The ResOver and 1050 is where the name Reboot is set. You can put whatever you like there....
App Ready
I compiled these files into ready to install application HTC Reboot.
Just install in to the phone and you are safe from the hasle of manually puting files etc.
Installer will ask you for place of installation, whatever you will choose, it will install in phone anyway.

Excellent. Installed using your cab and changed the "Reboot" to the German translation in the registry. Works perfect. Well done guys!

Will this cab work with any Smartphone with VM6 or just with HTC phones? Some of the soft keys in my old, but reliable Tornado just aren't responding as they once did. So... I just got a Blackjack II for $80 from AT&T while I wait to see what features the next generation HTC Touch Dual or a similar form HTC Smartphone will have. I want a slim form factor HTC Smartphone with Touch Screen, Quad-Band, 3G, WiFi, GPS and with at least a 20-key keypad. In the meantime the BJII will suffice, but I'd like it to have the ability to reboot from the Quicklist as my Tornado still does.
Excelent
What an excellent little app. Thanks a lot...just what I've been looking for. :thumbsup:
I was happy to find it too, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on my TD2.
I installed the cab, checked all the registry entries and the presence of the DLL and the EXE in the Windows directory. Everything seems to be correct.
But I still have only 4 options in Quicklist, Reboot not included. It's a German WindowsMobile - could that be the problem?
hi guys. i was wondering if this reboot option can be done for my HTC Touch2 running wm 6.5? i have attached a screenshot of the quick list on it..hopefully someone can help me.

Need Help with 2 things

hi, i needed help with 2 issues:
1, I want to change the homepage of my pocket Internet Explorer to Google. i have read the tweaks on the vox wiki suggesting:
(Change Pocket IE Homepage: HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/AboutURLs/home_0410 Change the homepage to whatever you want.)
The problem is after exploring my registry to that page, i do not have a "home_0410" in my list, so therefore which one am i meant to edit????
2, I have TCPMP, and i want the KEYPAD back light to go off after 10secs when the video is being played on full screen mode, rather then 30secs. Is there a tweak to do that???
i have read the registry tweak on vox wiki, that does turn off the KEYPAD light after 10secs when you're using the phone itself, but doesn't do it for TCPMP when watching a video in full screen mode.
Would appreciate some ideas. thanks
use modaco's ie google search tool.
You can find it in this thread of Paul, together with other handy tools.

For KEYPAD backlight issue, try phonealarm
if your language is English you have to edit value of "home_0409" key.
I have tried that one, but no luck, maybe im not entering it right? i want to make google uk my default IE homepage, Can someone provide me the extact quote i will need to enter in the registry value?? thanks

I'm not on any modified rom, i'm on the original WM6.0 rom, with the official HTC update applied. My S710 is a unlocked UK version, which is also application unlocked as well.

To change the homepage all you have to do is go to Tools - Options - Home Page. You can choose Default Custom Or Current (wm6.1)

no one here seems to explain it in simple detail
hi, here's what i just found
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs and change the value under home. I made my page with notepad because there was very little code and put it and the pics in the root of my phone. I assume to have a website as your homepage you just put the normal http://
Hope this helps
ok thanks, i have managed to sort it out, you was right. thanks alot. now i jus need a solution for the back keypad light for TCPMP issue. I do not want to try the phonealarm suggestion because that seems to mess up the settings of the phone.

As for the keypad light, I don't really see this as an issue. Is having it go off after 30 seconds instead of 10 a problem?
For it to go off after 30 secs is standard, but i mean to save battery it will be nice if it can somehow go off in 10 secs as the vox is not too good on battery. My previous HTC Tornado was excellent on battery, keypad back light went off in 10 secs standard, however that was running on Wm2003SE.
If any solutions for this issue, please do provide. thanks
Can't think of anything about the light issue except installing styletap and an app called kb lights off but i don't think that would work. With it being an emulator of palm i don't think it would actually change any settings

Cab Howto repair HTC Album

Hi guys, I got a big problem with HTC Album.
When I tray to display Facebook photos, I can only see the names of the folders and the number of photos but I can't display them (first it's loading but after appear a cross).
I tried to pass by contacts list and it to the same thing. Even with another Facebook account.
I also tried to delete the folder "FBContacts", in order to reset something but it doesn't do anything.
But, it works with the Facebook app' (but less simple than HTC Album)
Note : Association between contact and Facebook account, works, I can see the current profile picture (but it is the only one i can).

So, is it possible to reinstall / repair HTC Album ?!
Maybe I delete some important thing, or maybe there's a modification to do in the registry...
In advance, thank you.
Hi,
I guess most of the users face this issue, anyone found a solution yet?
Hi guys, I didn't realize that everybody was suffering from this. So, for the benefit of all, I just posted a thread with the fix.
Enjoy
try using dafault values on this tweak
Change:
HKLM/System/StorageManager/FATFS/CacheSize To: 65536
this tip enables a 32mb filesystem cache. it is unsuitable for 1.66 roms as will necessitate a hard reset.
This "tweak" is ultimately incompatible with my HD2/Diamond/Elf!
- On my HD2 (t-mobile stock 2.10) it causes the Album to lose the ability to view facebook pics, as in THE PICTURE ABOVE.
- On my Diamond, it causes wildly erratic behaviour, a corruption of ROM data (icons disappearing, programs stop launching with a "not a vaild win32 app", root files showing wrong sizes i.e. pim.vol once showed a 582 MB file size, etc...), and eventually an inevitable automatic hardreset.
- On my Elf, it causes the erratic behaviour as well as a corruption of my SDCard data and I ALWAYS end up having to format and start anew!!!!!!
Be advised, the "default value" for this reg value is a clean, big and round ZERO. As such, from my observation, this is UNSUITABLE for HD2 Leo stock T-Mobile ROM 2.10 either!
P.S. I'm already running an experiment on my HD2 with this tweak on. Already I'm experiencing erratic behaviours - icons disappearing from Sense, level1 highlights not showing, etc...

That´s right, I didn´t remember default value.
