Can't get phone settings panel to close - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

Alright, I'm at my wit's end here. I've been trying to port over some of the AKU 3.3 files directly from the tmobile WWE rom. Everything is working flawlessly except I cannot get the phone panel to close when I press the X. I'm not sure if it has to do with the ringtone player or not. I've changed the phones settings dll to the one in the crossbow rom and the reg settings check out. It's frustrating as all get out because I'm close to having this thing ready to release. Thanks.

Make sure the ringtone plays if not it will not close.... Fix that problem and it will probably work (make sure the tone is in the right place, make sure the registry points to \windows\. If you want to store them on your card just create a folder called, My Documents. And inside that folder create a folder called My Ringtones. Put your tones in there.

I does play. That's the thing. Also, it seems as if the interface has a problem. When I hit "open speed dial" after hitting the menu button, it gives me the settings-services page.

You may be on to something as the ringtone will not change. I wonder if this is hard coded into the registry somewhere. I'll have to check around.

Bump. This is driving me up the wall.

In the kitchen thread I posted the MediaOS files. I'd suggest either verifying that all the files are there - or just replacing the whole set.

Did you find any final solution?
I'm facing the same problem with my Trinity ... even the MediaOs folder replace didn't work out!!!

Yes, this was a result of the DRM modules being included in the OEM folder while cooking along with the registry settings. You'll have to look at the folder but all modules related to lsmoa must be removed along with the registry settings referencing those modules. Good luck.

Error message with shortcuts re: .lnks files

I am looking for some help with "shortcuts" or ".lnk" files
I am using a HTC Tilt 8925 with WM6, but I think this may be a more universal issue.
I went into Windows > StartMenu and added several new folders, and then moved the .lnks formed from program installations into those folders.
For instance, folder "Refererence" now hold Dictionary, Lexipedia, Thesaurus, etc.
All was OK for a while, but then I started to get error messages about 2 application .lnks that I had moved into a subfolder. The funny thing is, the links actually work! It's just that randomly, I get a WM6 message that there is a problem with " Programs > XXX > AAA "
Does anyone know how to make a "new" link, to replace these old links? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program and then moving those 2 .lnks, again, to the subfolder where I want it to be, but it happened again!
Thanks for any and all ideas!
PS: I have SK Tools installed; I thought there was a shortcut tool, but I cannot find it
Go into Program Files then whatever application you want the shorcut for. Copy the exe file then navigate to wherever you want the shortcut and paste shortcut. Rename the shorcut to whatever you want and the link is done!
Having said that if your shortcuts work sometimes but not others I cant see how it is a problem with the actual shortcut. You may need help here from someone more experienced than me.

Touch Cube and Audio Manager

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how I can make WMP the standard player on the Cube instead of Audio Manager?
Actually I would rather use Audio Manager but it doesn't work.
Until yesterday, i was running the original 6.0 on my Touch Dual. I could never get audio manager to work - it only found one song - and it couldn't be played because of a broken path/link or whatever. Yesterday I upgraded with the original 6.1 from HTC - and figured that audio manager would then work.
But it's almost the same problem. Audio Manager now finds 2 stadard win 6.1 songs - but none of my own songs. There's just a search icon running in the top right corner. I have tried to let it search for over an hour, but it finds nothing. I thougt that a fresh install with 6.1 would work - but no such luck.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this?
OK... - figured it out. Just changed the value in HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/MediaHubMini to wmplayer.exe instead of AudioManager.exe ... - but I still would like to know, why my audio manager doesn't find anything when searching for songs.
But now I have the problem with Cube / Photos. It points to /Windows/HTCAlbum.exe - I would like to point it at StorageCard/My Pictures - but that doesn't work. Does it have to be an exe-file in order to make it work or what?
If it is the case that it can only point to an exe, which is the case for a lot of registry strings, then check out VJBrisk. It will give you an executable to point the reg string at, and then will just activate the link, which you can copy from the start menu.
Search for vijay555 on google to find his site and the app.
Hey jez
I haven't tested yet - but that looks EXACTLY like the app that can make it work.
Thanx! )
I downloaded Touch Settings. So now I can change the folder without going to registry, but I still need an exe - so VJbrisk should do the trick.
----------------------------------------
Oh well. It was worth a shot, but unfortunately it doesn't work.
I can create an exe-file, and I can also get it to open my pictures folder via Total Commander, but when I try to open via the cube - I get an error that says something like: The files certificate is not trusted or a component is missing?

[SOLVED] Updated ROM, can't see ring tones?

Against me better judgment, I updated to the latest official AT&T ROM on my Fuze and now, for some reason, I can no longer use my custom ring tone. In the attached file, I have two files. "Team Fortress 2" is the ring tone I was using prior to updating my ROM and "TheMonstersWithout" was the song I was using for new messages. On the official ROM I'm using, I can see both as choices for new text messages, but "TheMonstersWithout" is the only on I can set as a ring tone.
Can someone tell me why I can't set the TF2 file as a ring tone? They're both in the same folder (\application data\sounds) that I used prior to updating and didn't have any problems.
Also, the Opera Mobile icon in the new ROM isn't the nice transparent "O" that was in the original ROM. Anyone know where that icon file is so I can set it back?
Edit #1:
In response to my second question, I adjusted the Opera Mobile.lnk file from:
21#"\Windows\OperaL.exe"
to:
21#"\Windows\OperaL.exe"?\Windows\OperaL.exe,-131
Edit #2:
Evidently, there's either a size limit or length limit on a ring tone. I trimmed the TF2 mp3 down to 10 seconds and it suddenly works... If anyone knows where you can set the limit size, I'd appreciate it.
Um... Forgot the file...
actually the reason you couldn't use your own tf2 ringtone is because the sound limit was reduced in the registry. Do a search on the term "updated fuze rom" I have posted the way to change this. Also don't forget you need total commander or a file explorer similar to it to work the registry.
I wasn't able to find the post you're referring to, mputtr. I did, however, find the solution in the Kaiser forums in this post. I'm quoting it here in case someone happens across this post searching for the same problem.

I upgraded from WM 6.0 to 6.1 and now my custom ring tones that are over 500Kb do not show up in the pull down menu in order to select them for contacts. This fix is to edit the registry.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

a quick search turned up:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4011376&postcount=7
also, deleting themp3 is not usually a good idea because it'll count every single sound file. by adding 2 zeros will allow you to limit how many of the mp3s you will put in there so you dont get full songs and the like in there that you don't need.
Well, only if you keep every one of your song files in one of the few folders the system scans for ring tones. But if you're THAT bad at file management, you have bigger problems.
it's only as a good measure of precautions. Besides, I don't know what programs install in which folder, but in the end, it's always a good precaution.

Not entirely sure what you want to remove or from where? What device and rom you using too?
I believe the OP wants to remove a Settings shortcut. I'm not sure how to do it with 6.1, but if you're using 6.5, then you may be able to delete the registry setting for the .cpl (may take some work figuring out which is which) to get rid of the shortcut. Look for it in hklm-security-shell-startinfo-start-settings. It may not work-you'll just have to experiment.

Im confused, if the OP wants to merely delete a shortcut from a folder in the start menu (wino 6.5) he can use total commander or file explorer and manullay delete or move to a different location?
I might be missing the point here though

It's harder with Settings shortcuts, though. They don't appear in the start menu directory most of the time. Only the Program shortcut show up there. I guess yiou can also delete the registry entry for the setting in HKLM\ControlPanel. That should work if the one in HKLM\Security\Shell... doesn't do the job.
Hi, i knew i was not really clear ! I typed it from my phone... too quick.
So, i'm using wm6.1 with a stock htc rom on my touch HD.
In the settings, connections tab i see and old Wifi router entry... if i click on it nothing happens and i have fulle removed this prog. So i would like to delete this entry.
As i said, i can't find any .cpl for this entry. I looked in the registry but no way to find it.
Hope i 'm more accurate now

I don't know if these keys exist or not in 6.1, but in 6.5 there are a bunch under HKLM\ControlPanel, and a lot of them are just numbered somewhat randomly. I have 3-8, 10-15 and 35. Then there are keys for Advanced Network, Backlight, Buttons, etc. If it's numbered, you may just need to use trial and error (back up before randomly deleting, obviously).
If the app was something you installed and then removed, it may have put an actual shortcut in the \Windows\Start Menu\Settings\Connections folder. Check to see if it exists, then delete it. I can remember having an app that did that once or twice. If you still have the cab file, you can analyze it with sk tools or winCE cab analyzer and see where it sticks the .cpl or what it's named.

Thanx. I see those random digits in the registry, but no way to identify which goes to which Andno it is not a "simple" link

Well, back up the HKLM\ControlPanel values, then start deleting the keys one at a time (you may need to soft reset after each one). When you find the key that gets rid of the shortcut you don't want, then restore all the original keys, and delete the annoying one again. It may not work, though-I'm just guessing that removing the keys will remove the shortcuts.

Soft Key changes

Hi all,
I previously had a Hermes where there was a little tool to change the soft-keys at the coners of the screen to to applications of your choice.
Either I did not look to find the tool in the Raphael or it does not exist in the HTC standard ROM. Is there any tool to use for changein the soft-keys?
Thanks for support.
Best Regards
Rolf
http://rapidshare.com/files/292980474/SoftKeyApplet.rar
put this fil in ur windows folder and voila...
in settings u can change the softkeys
Thanks, it works as expected until TouchFlo ist started . When TouchFlo is running, the keys automatically swich to left: Telephone, right: programms. I dont find a way to change that. Any suggestions?
Best Regards
Rolf
This is what I, found it in the diamond forum.
just change hklm\software\htc\manila its not hard. homelsk options for the left softkey and homersk for the right. path and text.
Hi Jack,
thanks, the solution works , even with touch-flo. I could put the calendar as soft key. Do You know the name of the file where the contats are stored?
Best Regards
Rolf
dont trust me too hard on this im doing it from memory, but... set your path to "\Windows\poutlook.exe" and your argument to "contacts". without quotes on both of course.
Hi Jack,
thanks, I will try this tomorrow, today I forgot my mobile in the office :-(.
Result: I tried it and nothing happened, no contacts shoowing up or any error-msg. So it should be an other file I guess. Do you have any idea?
Best regards
Rolf
i was wondering why that wouldnt work and i tried it on mine and it does. you can check your spelling for any typos or whatever but it should work. no quotes, no caps on contacts, \'s not /'s. hope you can get it working.
If you install the cab i posted you dont need to edit the registry, just select the app you want the link on the soft key to be and click save.
alot of people like to do it themselvs or dont like extra apps. ill check it out and see what it does later.
Hi,
so I tried again the manila cab that was postet above. Well, it works fine, I just cannot find the "contacts" in there which I like to set as left soft-key. The "calendar" setting works fine either as direct setting in the HKLM or using the cab.
I also tried again to start the poutlook.exe directly out of the file-explorer and in contrast to the start of the calendar, nothing happened. So it must be any other file to start ???
Also I tried to link the "kontakte" (a small link-file) directly in HKLM, but got an error-msg telling me that the file does not have the required security-attributes or whatsoever.
I will keep on searching but happy for any adviece.
Berst Regards
Rolf
