Hi All,
I need an insight. In phone application, whenever i click some numbers and try to find the contact to dial (list appears in smart dial box), I click "down" button in DPAD to reach the contact name but instead of going down in the list, phone displays me the Call History. I couldn't find a way to disable it. makes me crazy! I appreciate any comment.
I tried putting DPAD=0 in smartskey. I have ezDial as a smart dialing application but not active.
Best regards,
Fast
This is definetly Smartskey doing this. Since you changed Dpad=0 did you stop and restart smartskey? To do this just doubleclick on smartskey and it will pop up a box asking if you want to stop it. Say yes. Then doubleclick on it again to start it back up.
Smartskey
Well I already did it and even rebooted. No change.
Possibly, I made the edit of .ini file with Pocket Word, that may be causing the problem, even though I reopened it with notepad (in the pda) and resaved it.
I will open it with desktop PC notepad and resave and send back to the pda.
Fast
def. sounds like something smartskey would do lol

Ok, so I just realized that it's very troublesome to compose a new SMS, have to go to the inbox, press right soft key, press left joystick, press down joystick to select SMS and then start composing
So I got an idea to configure the Messaging button on Tornado Noble to point to the compose SMS straight away. I did some google, and found the attribute to the tmail.exe application.
So I tried to create a shortcut named Long_AP2.lnk, in it contain this line
19#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""
I saved it and transferred it to my phone, but it don't seem to work, feeling that my attribute might be wrong, I saved it as Short_AP2 and put into my phone, it works and by pressing the SMS button, it opens SMS composer straight away.
So the question is, why can't I get it to work on Long_AP2? Or the file name is supposed to be something else?
I also want to ask, what i that number 19 at the beginning of the line, hardware keys?
I think that the LONG_AP1.lnk activates when you hold the button for a few seconds.
Lol, I know that for sure,
I want to make long hold to activate compose sms, but short press to inbox
Anyone can help me? This is for our own good
keybddr.dll didn't support Long_AP2.
These aren't attributes. Attributes are what tell us whether or not file is hidden, read only etc...
These are parameters or switches.
I don't understand why you need to use a parameter to make tmail.exe open with a blank text message. Unless mine is broken, that's what it does by default. (In fact, I think mine is screwed up... wtf?)
Have you considered using mortscript?
andot:
If keybddr.dll doesn't support long_ap how is the media player supposed to use this for FFW in music/video?
I think it's supposed to support it.
I mixed up, it should be arguments
At default, it opens the inbox, not the blank text message
Long_AP2
With "AE Button Plus" you can map simple, double, triple and long click to one key.
This is a very usefull utility !
you need to modify the registry keys to use AEB Plus with the multimedia keys.

Hmm, I don't like to install additional cab to do simple stuff, perhaps find out what registry changes it does, and incorporate into a cab which installs the button, ill chk it out later

I fixed it. Don't know how it broke, but it works as you describe.
Is there no way to make a text version of a mailto: shortcut?
Good that you fixed it, but hope we can have 2 purpose with a button
short hold for inbox, long hold for sms
as you know, with Wm6, composing sms is even more troublesome compared to wm5
Hey guys,
I'm clearly a newbie here, been so for sumtime trying to learn while looking for tweaks and solutions, and I've been trying not to post so that I don't stupidly ask answered questions but unfortunately I have a problem that I need urgent fix. I've tried to search but haven't found what I need.
So here it is:
When I receive calls, the caller id and number seemed to be crunched together and unreadable under 1 line instead of usual 3 or 4. So I cant see who is calling me or from which number. This is rather important for my business to decide who to ignore and who to address properly.
I hope somebody can help me fix this.
For added info, I have made few registry changes and the last ones involve changing soft keys 112 and 113, and also installing HTC action screen before this problem.
Thanks guys!
I've never heard of this problem occuring, but I would recommend you skip stright to it and hard reset your PDA.
Backup all your files by connecting your PDA to your computer and copying over all the files you want to backup.
To backup all your PIM data (appointments, contacts, messages, call logs, speed dials and tasks) use a program called PIM Backup - details of this program can be found on this thread - Click Here
To hard reset a HTC Polaris, insert your stylus into the softreset hole and press it whilst pressing the 'Windows' and 'OK' buttons. Let go of the buttons 1-2 seconds after taking out the stylus. The send button is the green pickup call button, which you will be required to press to confirm you want to go ahead with the hard reset.
Hope this helps
I was hoping I didn't need to resort to that but I guess if that's the quickest easiest way.
Thanks for your help!!
Btw, which buttons do you mean by "windows button" and "Ok button" ??
Sorry thats the only thing I can advise you to do, but at least you will know that its probably the second best thing to do (apart from re-flashing the ROM).
Regarding the 'Windows' and 'OK' buttons, it is my bad that you probably cannot find them - the XDA Orbit 2 has these buttons, but the HTC Polaris has the 'GPS' and 'Internet Explorer' buttons instead. Basically, they are the two buttons under the pickup and hangup buttons.
Attached is a picture which may help you further.
Hope you get this problem sorted out.
Dear all,
It's been an amazing experience tweaking my Cruise... And the good thing is that it's all working very well
However I still MISS a feature that I had on my previous HTC P3600 and that is when I pressed the SEND button it automatically opened up my call history including missed calls.
How can I get this feature on my Cruise?
Thank you very much for your assistance.
That could be really useful!

Thanks but is there anybody who can explain how to do this please?
Setting a .lnk in Windows folder doesn't have any effect.
I tried with Short_Send.lnk, inside it is :
30#"\Scheda di memoria\Programmi\Inesoft Address Book\Inesoft History.exe"
but you have this feature in Polaris.
Just press send button then rotate the wheel to the left and..... the call history will show up. If you rotate to the left, fast dialing will show up.

thx a lot
hello,
is anything new about the changing the left softkey meaning? i dont want to klik unnecessary thanks for answers,
kuba
You can't exactly delete it off, but...
I also am a happy owner of a Treo 750.
In my experience with this phone, you can't exactly remove the E-mail link off all together, but you can 'add' a function to that left soft key.
All you need is a reg edit program, and....
Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2
For Default data change the text of the left soft key. For example I changed mine to Messaging.
Change Open Data to the exact location of a program link.
For example if you want to change it to the messaging program you would change it to "\Windows\tmail.exe" Note that the quotes must be included.
When you have everything set with the name and file location....exit and soft-reboot your phone. Now, when you click the left soft key, it should come up with the program link that you wanted with the email link next to it.
It's still there, but at least you can use it for something else as well.
Hope that this is useful to you and good luck...=)
Like right now if I tap anything, it opens it. For example file explorer. This makes selecting things IMPOSSIBLE. Any way to make it work so a single tap selects and a double tap executes?
Well, it works fine for me, what I do is: if I want to select 1 item, I hold the finger so it gets to the popup menu; if I want to select multiple items, I just select them by holding the finger.
You could try Total Commander, it behaves like desktop Windows, 1 click select, 2 clicks execute.
I don't know if you can configure File Explorer to do that though. If I'm not mistaken I have seen some option like that somewhere... not that it helps lol.
And I just told my phone not to capatilize every letter and it does. Nice.

Yep, that's definitely the most annoying "feature" on the phone, I mean, why the hell have a physical keyboard with shift keys if the phone doesn't respect it?

Any way to make this feature stay unchecked? I mean I unchecked it I thought that was enough. I'll try a soft reset but I'm guessing I'll have to use the registry.
OH YEAH!! The main reason why it is annoying about File Explorer is because I have to use that to open Youtube everytime. Any shortcuts right TO Youtube? Like every other Program?
The Youtube app? It's on the browser tab in TF3D, with Opera.
or you can add it to your program list
What about others application except file explorer
Hi guys,
Do you have a solution to this because, i just saw a way to avoid it. But what about phone app ( where you see recent calls, by default last call is selected but we cannot select other or you cannot change if to call mobile or other number from that contact) or notes app (clicking on a note is just open it)
