Hello
i am a newbie to WM6 and i miss to see the last used application in foreground after i switched off the PDA (using Power Off / On button).
Is there a trick to set up this behaviour (like in WM2003) as a default?
It seems that a application (Navigon MN6) is also able to override the setting, if programmed.
A lot of thanks for a hint helping to fix that.
Remark: i think this behaviour is a "point of design" of WM6, but i did not find a forum for wm6 related topics, so i posted it here: ecxuse me for that.
Regards

Is there some hack/app for that?
I'd like to map it to hw button for better one-hand usability, but I couldn't find anything about how to do it...

I'm looking for such an app, too. So please tell us, if you found a solution.
TIA,

Since no one is stepping up to the mark for now, I'll upload this
All it does is switch to QWERTY sip.
At some point I'll get it to enumerate all SIPs and you can specify them from command line, but I've no idea how to enumerate SIPs yet. I'm only just learning C++! :shock:
If you send me the CLSID of the SIP you want, I might knock together custom versions, but I'd rather learn how to enumerate and do a nice solution... :roll:

Wow, great. That's one big step forward! Haven't downloaded and tested your app now, but it sounds great!
A few months ago, I started to develop an app like this, but due to limited time I got stuck with it. But this could be helpful for your sipswitch:
Maybe you could get all installed SIPs by reading the registry (look for all entries with the key "IsSIPInputMethod" in HKEY_Classes_Root/CLSID/).
Finally, it would be great being able to select several input methods to switch between them (in my case, I normally prefer the letter recognizer but switch to Intellipad when I'm on the road :wink.
Greetings,

BGK: thanks for the info.
The procedure to enumerate SIPs is built into the API, SipEnumIM and SipEnumIMProc. I've never written an enumerator in C++, only VB, so I'll learn how to do it one day soon. If anyone cares to demonstrate how, I'll be happy to put it together.
I imagine what the prog will eventually do is enumerate the installed SIPs. Then you can specifiy by command line "SipSwitch.exe Calligrapher" or "SipSwitch.exe Keyboard" etc and it'll switch and popup that sip.

I finished it finally.
I managed to get it do to everything indicated, ie Toggle Sip and switch sip by name, eg SwitchSip Calligrapher will bring up calligrapher.
Bed time

Is it possible to change the SIP in silent mode? I want to change the SIP without the SIP to pop-up after change ? Possible?

Why? It has vijay's program that has been developed here. How does this not belong in development and hacking?
I hate the SIP panel, and I favor the switch the Input Method via keyboard silently.
Is there a list of Registry hacks for WM5 Smartphones somewhere? My other device is a Universal and you can tweak the hell out of it
This is my first Smartphone and customisation already seems a bit limited but there are a few things that i would like to be able to do, for instance:
1. Customise the top left hand button to be my program of choice, probably WMP
2. Speed up the rate at which the cursor moves along text
3. Change the length of the vibrating alert
These are just a few examples, but there are probably lots of things that could be tweaked to improve the user experience that i haven't discovered yet.
Has anyone found anything useful?
if someone asked me this question, i would direct them to this forum.
but seeing as you're already here and asking that question, i'm buggered if i know.
perhaps SPV Developers, or buzzdev.net ??

Hello,
After upgrading to WM6, I found when viewing SMS messages that the left softkey no longer gave the option new, just delete.
I put together this little shortcut which will send you straight to a new SMS.
I then mapped the shortcut to the now defunct video call button.
Download and unzip the attached file. Copy the extracted file to somewhere on you device (I put in in \Windows\AppButtons) and then edited the following registry entry:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C2
amending Default from "\Windows\AppButtons\Video Call.lnk" to "\Windows\AppButtons\New SMS.lnk" (you will need to amend this to wherever you put the New SMS.lnk file)
Hope that helps, but you are amending and playing with your phone/registry so I take no responsibility for anything you mess up!
Sorry if this is a known resolution, but I hadn't seen anything specifically in this forum, and not one with a complete solution.
Hi Steve,
Thanks for the little tool. I was wondering if the 'Delete' option could be turned into the old 'New' setting without loosing the video call button?
AFAIK No!
I've searched the forums and nobody seems to have an answer for this. I can't find where in the registry to edit either (I'm no expert of registry settings)
This seems like the only option for now. I think the softkeys in the mail app are hardcoded, so would need someone with more ability than I to take apart the tmail.exe file and make the required alterations. Still after nearly a year of ownership I've never used the video call button, and find it handy to be able to go to a new sms from anywhere on the device. Maybe this will be addressed in a future build of WM6? Or possibly someone will give the option of either NEW / DELETE...
Well.. Thank you for the workaround.
I'm looking for a solution, too.
I HATE that "delete" button, it's really boring!
Please help me!
Hi!
Please help to me! i want to create a shortcut send SMS in PPC, but i don't know how to do that? (example: send "GPRS +" to 8125 by SMS)
Many thanks
1. I don't understand what you want to do.
2. This is the forum for the HTC Universal device, judging by your username, you'd be better asking your question here
(anyone else think that HTC has made life a little complicated calling one of their models the UNIVERSAL...)
try vjphonetools do a search on the forums
Please help me!
Hi!
I want to design a page web run in PPC, so in this page, i create a hyperlink. when i click this hyperlink , the PPC will be send "GPRS +" to 8125 by SMS.
Many thanks.
Awesome, this is exactly what I needed!
Sorry if this is not a ROM question but this forum is my last hope:
Ever so often it happens that an application in the background is silently terminated, because Windows Mobile needs the memory for new tasks. AFAIK this is part of the internal memory management that is supposed to keep us users from needing to terminate an application manually.
This is making me crazy!!!
Example: Sometimes I am writing a long reply to a topic in a forum, e.g. in Opera Mobile. I have some other websites open and mediaplayer running. Everything is fine. Then an SMS comes in and I open it to read. When I am trying to get back to Opera to finish the reply to the forum...it is gone! Terminated by the OS! All the typing for nothing.
Same happens with e.g. an IRC instant messenger in the background...all the conversation: gone!
So if anyone PLEASE knows a way to start applications so that WM is not able to terminate them automatically, or if there is a way to tell WM to ask before closing them (like it was with Windows CE 2.0) then please tell me!
I know one can start apps as services on boot by integrating them in registry key HKLM\Init, but then they are open from the beginning even if I do not need them at that time.
Any help much appreciated!
Has any solution been found?
Has any solution been found? I've the same problem on my Omnia.
same problem on my touch pro...
I suspect I'm having this issue with Touch Diamond 2. Would appreciate any suggestions...?
I'm struggling to keep Modaco NoData running which, as you'll understand, is a bit of a problem.
I use my PDA mainly to effectively stay organized and want to execute the most commands with the hardware keyboard. The Hermes (TyTN) was great for that purpose but I wanted something faster and had better camera and so on, so I bought Raphael.
The Raphael is great in many ways but it has slowed down my organizing and irritated me and I´m wondering if I can do something about it, see things differently, or if you have suggestions for recomending something else, like Kaiser or Xperia?
More specifically...
-The input method with auto suggestion seems crappy (see separate thread)
-The soft keys above the keyboard are gone
-It actually takes longer time to open Word-documents (than with Hermes) - it takes 15-25 seconds for a 50kB doc (!)
-The screen is not placed in the middle
Lot´s of complaints , but I am looking for a solution here, so please enlighten me

Hardware shortcuts.
PQzII for hardware shortcuts. Have you changed from the default ROM this may speed up word.

Does PQxII work even for the soft keys - menu and...?
Are the ROM:s available here language-specifik, or can I use any one of them? (I have a Swedish model.)
And thanks
