HTC Camera 4.11 from Touch...

I found a thread somewhere on this but I can't find it now. Is anyone working on porting this to the Wizard. I have an installer and installed it but it come up with "Failed to initialize camera". I know the person who posted this was thinking of giving up on it. This would be the final polish on all the Touch conversions. Just wondering before I start digging around in my registry...

They moved it to the general section of the main forum. The post is dead because it appears to require a diffrent driver and the camera's on the wiz are having issues with getting the right quality setting or something like that. I have gotten it to load and install on wiz from cooking but cant use the single shot camera. It only works with the action deal and will not take full size.

Hmm...perhaps there's a way to combine the interface from 4.11 with the older camera driver. I'm not much of a coder, but it seems that if porting the formerly thought "impossible" TouchFlo was possible, than maybe this is too. I'm hoping to inspire someone much smarter than me to try and tackle this...

I am working on it now and should have it ready sometime next week.

That's awesome. I will be more than happy to beta test...

Hi guys I have got it working on my Prophet Touch rom and there is a oem package for it to located in this thread Here all that needs to be done is change the model name in the rgu file and it should work on Wizard.

In the OEM package did you mean to set the file name as .rgu not .rug?
Also where abouts is the Device ID setting your reffering to in the RGU?

that doesn't work i've tried, i think it's because wizard was a 1.3mp camera and original touch has like a 2.0mp so it fails to initialize or something

that could be the problem I didn't know that but if you change the picture setting within the reg or even maybe inport the regs from camera 3.3

I got it working slightly.
I replaced some of the drivers with the ones from my current camera app. The photo mode wouldnt work but it was happily running and the on screen controls were working nicely.
You probably know more about the camera drivers than me so maybe you would know which drivers to replace but I can confirm it ran although I used the cab method.

[SOLVED] Anybody knows this file Manila2D22AIO_beta2.cab?

I have a crazy question! I dont know anymore where I got my m2d file from (amnesia) and maybe someone recongnizes the file by its name? (Manila2D22AIO_beta2.cab) Does anybody know where this m2d.cab came from? I can't find anything on the net about it....?
Thanks for the help

Sorry, I just checked a few of the major PDA websites and came up with nothing! You may need to find a newer version or find a kitchen!

I download it yesterday so it isn't old....What I can remember this was a new beta file. Still thanks for the help

Hi!
It's my stuff. Get it from here: http://winmo.sztupy.hu/m2daio/Manila2D22AIO_beta2.cab
It can also be found on MoDaCo: http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-...l-in-one-manila-2d-update-22-beta2-available/

Haha the creator himself! Thats nice your here and immediately give me the answer! What I would like to say this is a nice version of m2d. I tweaked it a little with m2dc and discovered the colortabs and then went on tweaking. below is the result.
Almost everything functions ok except a few things
-settings and communications will not open (not that I care)
-graphical glitches in map search
( i should have said this on modaco btw!!!!!! ) But thanks again.
All credits go to sztupy and the m2dc files i used from twolf
btw hope you dont mind I tweaked it?

The cab was made for the omnia. It will open Omnia's "commmanager".
Btw. I don't mind. Tweak as you wish

Would this cab work on an I-Mate 9502, I have been looking for this for some time.

[APP] *IN DEVELOPMENT* hAndyZoom - Add Pinch & Zoom To Installed Programs

The program doesn't seem to work at the moment - I will fix the bugs after my HD2 arrives today - will need a bit of time to play first of course !
The HD2 contains a 'Whitelist' in the registry which then enables pinch & zoom in those programs.
I have written a little app that will list your program files.
Select the file click enable and you should bve good to go.
Not tested it yet as my HD2 doesn't arrive until tomorrow.
Any feedback is welcome.
Cheers,
Andy

sounds great. Only i can't install it as it isn't digitally signed...

Awesome idea. However it gives an error message "An error occurred on sub __main_findallfiles". I can't give you a more specific message as the assembly with error messages is missing. I've got the NLD version.
After the error (if i choose to continue), the listbox is empty. I'd be happy to do some tests for you if you have debug builds.
[edit]Btw, can you also disable them after enabling? In case it's not working as you hoped it would? [/edit]
P.S. I like the energyrom background

It works good on my HD2 But only one question, it is possible to add any program? If its not in summary...

hi... you like your new HD2? did you already have the chance testing your little program on it?

There is already a soft who does that. Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584940

MS Tag Reader for HD2

Hello, please find attached MS Tag Reader beta, which works OK with HD2, and does not suffer from the following issues:
- green box during camera initialization
- rotated camera preview

thanks mate...it working nicely

omg this is impossible. someone actually fixed microsoft tag? after a year of using it for multiple devices.... lets see if this actually works

This guy is a genius. Microsoft tag, that doesnt show camera correctly on any windows mobile device, for the first time works...
You are a legend!!!

Where did you get it from, did you edit/fix it yourself.?

Actually, I had sent them an ordinary bug report, but thanks to the favorable star constellation I received almost instant reply with kind request of beta testing. So, after their development storm and my checks of a few more versions, I was satisfied with the one posted in the first post, and reported it back as working OK with the HD2.
The whole thing took about two hours only, but I was as surprised as you are now with its result

Well I downloaded it a few days ago from gettag.mobi and it works fine? The image is mirrored but no green box or anything.

That's quite possible. After testing, MS has asked me for proper user agent strings for HD2 phone - so I assume that this version has already became official and can now be downloaded from their site. At the time I first posted it here you couldn't get it anywhere else, as it was a fresh build.
EDIT - I read your response wrong. So you're saying that with official version, the image is still rotated? Then please try the version in the first post. Also, camera green box (initialization error) may or may not occur to you - I think it may also depend on ROM version or installation of the HTC camera hotfix.

hi thanks for your post...u r a fantastic guy.... i think he shld use ur cab for the installation rather than from mobi site....

No problem.
I'm glad I could help.

thanks for sharing
thanks czbird.
I have been searching for this for some time, posted of forums and emailed tech support of both parties, but neither MS nor HTC have offered a solution.
Obviously my constellations are less favourable than yours.
Lets hope they admit to a solution soon. So far as I can see they do not have a versioning system nor any build news on their download site.

Tag Reader problem
Hi,
When I open the new version of Tag Reader my soft key choices are [left-history] + [right- menu], yet the reader requires you to click 'enter' to complete the read/scan. I can't find an enter option.
What am I doing wrong guys?

Got email from Microsoft Tag Team a couple of days ago to say that they now have a new file to download.
I created this tag which when i just tested, identified my phone and offered to download the cab file.
Tag works fine for me. Jumps to the link as soon as the tag is within the photo boundaries. Automatic, no need to press anything.

You may have a wrong version, for a phone with a keypad. On my HD2 I have never had to click anything to read a tag. As soon as it gets into the right area in the picture, the tag link is launched.

Many thanks! The official dl wasn't working for me, but the link in the OP worked like a charm.

i downloaded the latest version from MarketPlace (v3), it doesn't work. It can't initialize the HD2 camera.
disappointed.

I got the new version from gettag.mobi, and guess what? It still has screen rotation issue. What gives?

So, you're claiming you sent a bug report to Microsoft, and then they immediatly called their entire mstag development team and created a new beta within 2 hours? Very believable. And I seriously doubt microsoft would just send beta's to random people. Well not completely random, but still.

Try a soft reset. My camera often won't initialise if i have had too many programs open.
I've just got the latest tag and it works, but has that stupid screen rotation problem, so I will have to revert to v2.
EDIT: If you go to gettag.mobi and find the file by manufacturer HTC and then the HD2. It downloads a file called TagReaderR90.0409.cab which is the one you need.
However, that then comes up with message The camera on your phone could not be accessed - 80070037.
A soft reset clears it and the Tag reader now works properly on my HD2.
Unbranded HD2 running latest ROM update from HTC, with CoOkies home tab 1.7.1, and Advanced Home Tab 2.2.3

is there an updated version, v1 available for HD2, the released out of beta version still does the inverted video problem.
update: ok just read hx4700 comment, will try out his instructions.
update 2: for the first time from Microsoft and not an xda developer, MSTag for the HD2 works perfectly. thanks hx4700

*** Secure Box Released *** 6-09-2010***

Greets All,
I am pleased to announce that I am releasing a Proper Secure Box! I know most will say whats proper about it. Very simple, this is activated using the MUI file that is not from the Korean Rom!
Cookers read below for information that could be of use to you and if you need help ready will and able.
Secure Box for ToMoUS Rom 2.13 (And possibly all English roms)
This was something that took time to get it right and functioning correctly. There is ONLY 2 Reg Entries that activate Secure Box, plus the activation of Secure box in the MUI file.
Reg Entries to Activate Secure Box:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Jataayu\Messaging]
"MessageServiceComponents"=dword:000005FE
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging]
"HTCDevice"=dword:00000001
The reason why some got Secure Box to work and some didnt, is cause these two keys are the main keys HD2 and TP2 look for. The MUI file needs to be edited to include the missing menus and ID entries, which are located in 3 sections of the MUI file. If Cookers would like more information please feel free to let me know, will provide the info.
I can do this to any rom version as my guess is for the HD2 Rom 1.66 and up, and for the TP 2 2.07.401 All languages.
To know if the ROM you have is capable of Secure Box, Cookers and Users need to look for at least one xml file: HTCMessaging_Client_PasswordManagement.xml.
If this file exists you can have secure box on your phone. (Non-HTC devices unknown).
Okay some instructions: MUST be installed on device. (Added in 6/09/2010)
Make sure HTC Messaging is NOT running or it will not install. As a failsafe turn sense OFF, shouldnt have to but better safe then sorry.
Import the reg entry in the Secure Box Setting zip file into your registry, then take the .0409 mui file and copy it to your windows folder using Total Commander. Soft Reset, and Secure box will be active.
As for not seeing that xml file, make sure you have show all files checked. and look carefully, it can be over looked.
Bugs: None as of Now
Fixes: Fixed the Error in the MUI file for VIP showing Cancel instead of Delete. Now shows correctly Delete for VIP
Current MUI File Version: HTCMessaging_Client_1_5_20143625_00
Any Questions Feel Free.
***After further Looking I have removed the CAB and placed the files, I dont know why the Cab wont install the file, even with SDKCert run first. Instructions changed!***
UPDATE I have added another ZIP, this includes a video to show you all it takes to enable it using total commander.
MMS Preview Auto Rotate Screen Settings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging]
"PlayerType"=dword:00000001
"PlayerFlags"=dword:00000001
"PlayerOrientation"=dword:00000002 (This Entry Doesnt seem to exist in current versions so I add it)

Soundz great

Thank you AD, would be awesome to share your findings. Thanks to Aruppenthal as well

I'm sorry for the lack of communication about this, but I have been working on a bug I found during my testing phase. and before I put this out, I wanted to be absolutely sure it was working. Let me explain in short the bug:
HTC messaging Client as most know, has two communication settings, one for Non-Secure Box, and the other for Secure Box. Now so far when I first found this, I thought I found what I needed, I was wrong. I found one key that activates Secure Box, but there are two keys, (No Secure Mode = 0 isnt it). It seems there is a permission key as well to allow to send through secure box. and to also display properly. When I first modified the current MUI file in 2.13 I had two bugs: 1) sending, 2) it was only working in traditional mode, not threaded. So I was on the hunt as to why, and I think I found the bug, or missing key. I need to do a little more testing before I show all my findings,. and as promised, release the 1.72 Telstra Enabled secure box, the 2.13 ToMoUS Secure Box. I am going to hold out on the 1.78 Korean since I need to translate it.
But its coming as soon as I am absolutely sure, just a couple of more days.

Please let me know of any issues with my current release. Cookers again, as long as credit is given, Feel free to use at will.

Sorry if I misunderstand, will this work for the stock 1.66 ROM WWE?

not working ..not been able to locate either of these
HTCMessaging_Client_PasswordManagement.xml.

Okay some instructions: MUST be installed on device.
Make sure HTC Messaging is NOT running or it will not install. As a failsafe turn sense OFF, shouldnt have to but better safe then sorry, and third copy the cab to the device and try running installation again, some people may have to run the install from the device due to a permission issue.
As for not seeing that xml file, make sure you have show all files checked. and look carefully, it can be over looked.

I didnt say these reg entries will be in your registry, I was pointing out to everyone what makes it active.
The MessageServiceComponents entry does exist, but with a 1406 value, changing this to 1534 enables Secure Box to work properly. without this entry you would only be able to view msgs in traditional mode and not threaded mode. Also your notification would not be your sms highlighted, but your mail tab highlighted.
The HTCDevice entry doesnt exist on stock roms, cooked roms it does, but its to point out to any of the cookers if they didnt know that these 2 entries are all thats needed in the rom to make it work.

This is for Stock Roms and the HTC Messaging Client.
99% sure it will not work with the arcsoft messaging app.

Does the MMS preview screen auto rotate in your version or is it still forced landscape?

This does not fix the landscape view of mms, this is only for enabling secure box.
My MMS always has been in lanscape mode.

I'll double check this md see whats happening. The MUI is the stock htc message client im using is version 1.5 build 2014.3625 thats from the 2.13 release rom. I will report back as soon as I get a chance to check it out, but remember if the HTCMessage.exe is running you will NOT be able to install the MUI. I would suggest doing a soft reset and attempt it again this way you know for sure the HTCMessage.exe is not running.
UNLESS your running custom rom, then you need to see in the task manager if its running, I would also suggest turning off Manila from the settings/all settings/today.

Chris, I think I found the reg entries for this.
Anyone willing to try check to see if you have these settings, if not try them out. based on Chris's comment I am assuming these 3 entries are it, but I'm testing it out as well to see what its about.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging]
"PlayerType"=dword:00000001
"PlayerFlags"=dword:00000001
"PlayerOrientation"=dword:00000002 (This Entry Doesnt seem to exist in current versions so I added it to my phone, the other two seem to have a value of 0 so I made them 1
CONFIRMED The settings above will auto-rotate your mms preview screen before hitting play. Hope that was what you were talking about Chris
