MAny people telling about problems with wiffi turn on:
- Not available by clicking on "g"
- not available to remap to hardwarebutton
- Not recognizing after pushing by commmanager
This comes up in several ROMs and I mentioned a soulution in many threads.
For some it works,for some not.
Just give it a try:
HKLM\Comm\TnetWln1\Parms\HTCPreloadStatus --> 1
HKLM\Comm\TnetWln1\Parms\HTCPreloadWifi --> 1
and check if WifiInit.ink is in \windows\startup folder.
Please tell me with which ROM it works and for which not.
Thank you.

This did the the trick for me running NottoSmart Vanilla. I had wifiinit.lnk in startup, it was the reg key values that did the trick for me.
I don't have any SPB programs installed, although I did try one out, but then uninstalled it, so maybe that is what "broke" itm since I know wireless was working when I installed the ROM. I currently have the following programs installed if that helps...
Voice Command 1.6
Pocket Mechanic
Sharkey Softkey Changer
JamDat Worms
Registry Wizard
Battery Status 1.3 beta
Live Search
TOtal Commander
CorePlayer
CoolCamera
Treo Picture dialer
SP TimeSync
PQzII Wizard
Phone Alarm with B&W Pure skin
Foxit PDF
Tascal CloseAll
THANKS!!! for figuring this out!
Just to be sure, are the correct values in HKLM\Comm\TnetWln1 key or in HKLM\Comm\TnetWln1\Params?

Sorry, sure it is Parm I edit in first Post.

(I answerd this settings so often that I now wrote it wrong)
Sorry to all searching the wrong settings - now it is right in first post.
Here's the cab file for those who doesn't want to search registry. If there's no improvement, simply uninstall it to restore previous state.
HTCPreloadStatus doesn't stick?
In my current ROM HTCPreloadWiFi is already set to 1 and HTCPreloadStatus is set to 0. If I change HTCPreloadStatus to 1, exit the Registry editor, leave it for a while and soft reset it always reverts back to 0. I have verified the change is being made by exiting the Registry editor and then opening it again and checking and it does indeed say it's set to 1. However a soft-reset later and it's back to 0.....

Here is my experience. I was having intermittent inability to enable WiFi. Sometimes this was rectified with a soft reset, other times not. I checked the two keys and they were both set to zero.
I applied the changes and re-booted after waiting awhile. I noticed that the WiFi came on after reset without having to enable it. I am running mUn with the collected fixes from NotTooSmart.
I have since toggled and re-toggled and re-booted my Wizard and all seems well. However, HTCPreloadStatus is set to zero on mine regardless of whether the WiFi is on or not.
It is all working though.

Thanks for this and the pointer to the 10 button comm manager screen. After installing the new comm manager, doing the reg fix for that, and then applying this cab, it appears my Wifi starts up each time with no issues (in the minimal testing I've done over the last couple of hours).

Have you tried to softreset by switching off with 5sec Powerbutton? And the turn on again?

Hi there m8. I just couldnt install the new comm manager. I just upload it to my device and try it to install in the main memory but i just cant.
This is weird. :s
Any advice ???
Yep, that is weird. Went right onto mine with no issues, and I'm also running XPlore 1.1. Have you tried doing a soft reset and then loading it again? Maybe putting the cab directly on your phone and then running it from your phone?
Yes... that did it.

I realized I was having the same problem, came back and, VOILA, there is already a solution to the problem of the solution!
However, I seem to be a little dense today but I cannot figure out what 10 button comm manager screen was pointed to.
based on the screen shots from the following post and using google I found this post in the Hermes forum that seemed to have the file specified, but I wanted to check before I installed something ported from the trinity to the hermes on a wizard
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1207712
Also, this may be mild hijacking, but has anyone tried the other cabs in that post, specifically the sim manager and bluetooth file transfer?

Uh, isn't the commmanager question directly related to the thread since it was proposed as a solution to not have the registry values persist?

The commanager was asked for by people using xplore and don´t like green commmanger.
It might be a soulution.
Everything what would help is wellcome. But the thread started to get bigger and bigger discussion several problems.
It was started to evaluate the function of the registrysettings.

Right, and it was determined that the registry settings work, but only temporarily, since they go back to 0 after a second soft reset. from what I understood, installing the different comm manager either allowed the settings to persist or made them irrelevant, which is why I thought a discussion of taht belonged in this thread. Am I completely wrong in the above assumption?

That was mentioned by me.
To your question. My settings stay even after softreset. Do you change it and turn off device by powerbutton for 5seconds? For this ever works regarding to reghacks.
Didn´t wanted to stress you. Discussion is the way this forum lives!

Yes, thats the one. But for the wizard there is a reg key you have to remove or it breaks your Wifi. Please look at the XPlore thread for discussion on this (or as suggested, start a new thread specifically about the 10 button comm manager. It probably needs a seperate thread anyway).
Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forums, but after running into you guys every time I try and google something related to my Treo 750, I wanted to share my two cents.
I've been looking for a way to stop the "automatic activesync" thing that everyone seems to be complaining about. I have a new Treo 750 running WM6out of the box. Everything I've seen has not worked, short of totally killing activesync entirely.
Now, I can't guarantee that it works, or that it's safe and has no other side effects! Use your own judgement, I'm by no means a Treo or WM6 expert.
------
1) Install RegEdit on the Treo
I found the tool on another thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=273693
You put it on the treo itself, and run from the treo too.
You can't use Mobile Registry Editor for this. You get "Access Denied" errors on the key. You have to run this prog directly from the Treo.
2) Edit registry entry on treo:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ActiveSync\Engines\{guid}\Settings\SyncAfterTimeWhenCradled
The original value is 5 (5 minutes? Like how often ActiveSync seems to run? hmmm!). If you change it to 0, it will revert back to 5. Instead, change it to something like 300.
Then SOFT RESET THE TREO! Changes don't take effect until you restart windows, remember the old days?
3) Edit this registry entry on your COMPUTER:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\#####\Services\Synchronization\Continuously Update
Set it to 0. This is the fix that didn't work anymore, I dunno if it has anything to do with anything but I set it and it didn't destroy anything
So, now what will happen is you'll plug in your Treo. It will sync ONCE. Then it should shut up and not sync anymore until you click the Sync button. I think the "automatic syncing" was the activesync on the TREO's doing, not the activesync in windows. It's that WM6 registry entry that controls how often it goes. I presume now, the Treo WILL sync five hours from now since I set my setting to 300, but I'm sure you can set it to 999 or something and get a sufficiently long time that it really doesn't matter.
As we speak, my Treo has been plugged into the USB charger for a good 15 minutes while I wrote this post, and it hasn't woken up or done anything!
-----------
Here's one other thing. If you go into the registry on your COMPUTER:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\#####\Services\Synchronization\Enable Sync
And set that to 0, when you plug in the Treo it will pop up an error saying that it couldn't sync the device and see the windows troubleshooter for more info. Then it signs you on as a "guest" on the Treo. I imagine you could make a REG file or something that turns this on or off.
---------
Oh, an update, it appears when I go into the sync options in ActiveSync on the computer and enable syncing "Media", e.g. windows media player library... it syncs continuously all the time forever. The "Media" part of the sync progress seems to behave differently on its own.
I guess syncing media is different? I dunno. Try it with it turned off.
Thanks a lot.
Can we have at least one week. So 300 = 5 hours. 24 hours = 1,440 while one week is 10,080. Is this gonna work or not ?
Have you tried setting up an exchange server account?
What I have done was to go into...
Programs>Active Sync>Menu>Configure Server.
At which point it will ask you for Server Info...\Type in...
"fake" then next
User Name & Password can also be "fake">next
then uncheck all the boxes.
Once you do this the "Schedule" & "Options" menus should be available.
Click on Schedule & change the settings to "Manually"
& check off "Use above settings when roaming"
This will have your treo only open active sync when starting EVDO, Soft Resetting, Connecting to your computer directly or when you start Active Sync ONLY.
Try it & let me know...
via startup folder and reg file
Hi all,
I've triend the above-mentioned fake server trick and it did not work for me (HTC Touch Cruise 2009 running Windows Mobile 6.1). ActiveSync kept coming on after a soft restart (the 'reboot, if you will) - it was driving me crazy. (In all honesty, it should be mentioned that I do not think AS chews up much battery power, memory and/or processor clock cycles, but I just absolutely, positively hate it when programs start themselves up on my (P)PC. I like to be in control!
As mentioned, I've triend the fake server trick to no avail, and I've tried disabling the notification in the notification queue as well - no permanent result, since the entries there seem to be regenerated by some other application. I ended up with several duplicate entries (which were easily removed, but nonetheless, this doesn't seem to be the best way of going about).
Anyway, it seems I've finally found a synthesis of all kinds of help available here on XDADEV (I've been lurking in here for a while) that actually seems to kill off ActiveSync's automatic starting. I am posting this from work in the hospital, so it's a quickie, but bear with me and I'll give proper credit when I can finally attribute at (while at home).
Usual disclaimer: registry editing is bliss, but when you ***** up, it may be that you have to do a hard reset and several hours of work
All revolves around the entry in the registry at:
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/ActiveSync
which has an entry called "KeepAlive" (which is valued 1 for 'yes'). Now, if I change this to 0 (for 'no'), ActiveSync doesn't start itself any longer. However, this registry entry resets itself again upon starting ActiveSync(sigh). So, I made a reg file that writes the 'correct' value for KeepAlive and pu a link to it in the /Windows/Startup folder on my device. The reg file is very simple, it only contains:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync]
"KeepAlive"="0"
which makes it perfect for me: less risks for typos and stuff
You can put the reg file in the /Windows/Startup folder (or 'Opstarten' as it called on my device since I have a Dutch ROM) or put it in the Programs folder and drop a link to it in /Windows/Startup. That way, it runs every time you boot and in my case, this seems to hold off AS for a while. As said before, the registry key resets itself upon starting AS. I'll research a bit more and the above works in combination with the reg file, and that should put AS out of business. (Maybe the above works even on its own?)
Have fun, take care.

Can you tell me what program to make the REG file? because I tried Notes but it make the *.PWI format?
TIA
The ultimate solution.
Ok here's what you do. The fake exchange server solution never worked for me.
First of all you need FdcSoft's Task Manager program. It is the best and a must have.
Use the Notifications editor to disable the repllog.exe for RunAfterTimeChange.
Use the registry editor to go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync] Change the KeepAlive value to 0. Tap and hold "KeepAlive" (or go to file menu) and select "Export...". (not Export All) Save this .reg file in the \\Windows\StartUp folder or save it somewhere else and copy it there.
Now you will need Ghisler's Total Commander.
Using Total Commander, browse to \\Windows\Startup folder or wherever you saved .reg file. (Windows mobile doesn't automaticaly know that .reg file should be opened with TaskMgr so you have to associate it.)
Tap and hold your .reg file and select Properties. Select "Associate" tab. Tap gray box that says "Associate..."
In "Command:" box browse to the folder where TaskMgr.exe is. (\Program Files\FdcSoft\TaskMgr\TaskMgr.exe)
In "Parameter:" box leave the "%1" there, and type "/silent" right after. ("%1/silent") This will keep a dialog box from poping up on start up.
"Ok" everything and you're done! Enjoy.
I read somewhere this may be due to a system font being replaced but I have not installed any new software in weeks.
Anybody know how to recover? I can't afford a hard reset.
Descriptions, But no icons or background
Maybe our problems have the same cause. The comm manager wizard worked for me before on my 8525. Then updated to WM6 and now it installs partway and stops. Message is "not enough permissions". I get the text for the buttons, but not the icons or background. Also can't afford a hard reset.
Would rather have your half of the problem. At least you can still see the keys.
Update. I was able to fix the problem.
At: http://blogs.conchango.com/stuartpreston/archive/2005/11/10/2376.aspx
found directions. Have included them below as modified to fix my particular problem.
The following reg editor at the blog site did not do the job on my 8525. RegEditSTG http://blogs.conchango.com/stuartpreston/files/regeditSTG.zip
I used the reg editor at here:http://www.8525software.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,27/func,fileinfo/id,86/
Followed the directions for what keys to fix in the link above. Reinstalled the comm manager "CommManager_8button_wizard.cab" and it works well. Looks good, too.
The reg edit I used works on the 8525 remotely from the PC. Just unzip and execute with the 8525 connected. Change the security policies as follows:
Navigate to HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\
Write down any entries you change, before you change them.
Delete the entry you need to change.
click add DWORD and insert the correct values in the dialog on the PC's screen.
Change "00001001" value to 1 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 2)
Change "00001005" value to 40 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 16)
To fix the security policy, I changed only ...005 to 40.
Reboot device.
I believe WM6 is taking on the same baggage as PC Windows, so that this type of fix will become the norm instead of the exception.
Having installed Dutty's WM6.1.5.2.19209 I installed Resco keyboard.
I cant select the Resco keyboard - Transcriber and Symbol pad can be selected, but if Resco keyboard is selected it immediately goes back tp PCM.
I've tried all the suggestions I can find in these forums:
1.) Installed Default IM Selector (selected Resco, then soft reset)
2.) Installed SIP Change (selected Resco the soft reset)
3.) Start > Settings > Input (selected Resco...)
No effect. Any ideas?
yes I got any problem with Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19400_1_64.08.21[Cube] rom
<Mean>
You obviously didn't read Dutty's thread before flashing this ROM.
</Mean>
If you browse to the appropriate Dutty thread, I guarantee you that within 6 posts from the top (hint: LOOK AT POST 5), you will find your solution. In the future, please check the thread for your ROM before creating a new thread. It is highly likely that someone has already run into your issue, and the solution is posted in there.
i have the same issue and have read the thread but it still doesn't work
Download the 3 files attached in Post #5, then follow the instructions in Post #1185.
I think your comments were a tiny bit mean, but understandable as a lot of people don't read the threads before asking the same question over and over again.
Sadly, I have been reading threads for days now, searching for every keyword I can think of, followed the instructions (including installing SIP Change. Select which keyboard you want. Then install Default IM Selector. The select the same keyboard. Then soft reset.) and I still can't get it to work. Maybe I'm doing something stupid, so here is what I've tried in full:
1) Initial preparation...
Start with a SIM unlocked TYTNii from Orange (Kaiser130)
PIM Backup
HARDSPL - didn't work (white screen) so tried JumpSPL1.56-kais.exe
JumpSPL1.56-kais.exe didn't work either so tried JumpSPL1.93-kais.exe
JumpSPL1.93-kais.exe worked fine.
Flash hard SPL using KaiserCustomRUU
2) Flashed Dutty's ROM
http://rapidshare.com/files/107917203/Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_Official_5.2.19209_1_58_16 _27__FIX_.zip
As I type the following, I'll repeat each action so that I can document each message and behaviour accurately...
3) Hard Reset - everything looks great, but I don't like the size of the keys on PCM keyboard
4) I install Resco Keyboard using .exe from pc with usb connection.
There's an option to install as the default keyboard so that remained ticked. At the end of the install, there's a message "Unable to initialise the Resco Keyboard. Input method will be activated after the next soft-reset".
Soft Reset.
5) Test by opening Tasks application
6) Now that's really annoying, as it works straight away this time. Without having to run SIP Change or Default IM Selector. The only difference is that I haven't installed other software first.
So, thanks for your response which in a round about way fixed the problem!
Unfortunately Dutty's Apr 09 ROM saw many people running into your problem even after running the 3 CAB files posted by AllTheWay. Sometimes it took several times running thorough the steps until the change finally stuck.
I have the same annoying issue. I have tried many solutions to solve it, but all failed. who can give me the accurate answer? thx
It seems far too random to me. I wonder if anyone has a technical explanation of why trying it a few times seems to work.
[ Er, no I haven't searched the forums this time ;-) ]
You all know that this should have been in Dutty's thread in the first place. No need to continue posting in it.
I am using sipchange on my Polaris (O2 Orbit 2) to always have the standard keyboard when I'm turning the device on or when soft-resetting.
But since two weeks I am discovering the following problem: When turning on the device tells me: 'sipchange could not be opened, ... not secure certificate ... or one of its componenets could not be found...' and the keyboard has not been set to the one I had selected to be in sipchange.
I already installed sipchange again, but problem stays. And i can not find it in programmes to uninstall it correctly.
Can anybody tell me how to repair or uninstall and install it again the right way?
Regards,
Mark
I found the solution on my own:
Simply install a special version of sipchange called 'SIPChange_Camel-Fix' and now everything is fine again. I don't know why the standard one worked for about 4 months without any problems and suddenly stopped without any change to the system.
I install SipChange on HTC HD and after softreset and after loading TouchFLO:
Problem with sipchange.exe
And click on Don't Send a problem...
SIPChange_Camel-Fix will solve a problem?
