Keyboard backlight? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Is there a way to make the keyboard backlight come on and stay on when you slide it out?
I don't like the auto sensor on my Mogul, and set it up to stay on all the time.
I can't find that option on my Touch Pro?

I am in the same boat. I am looking for a fix. I tried Kaiser Tweaks does not work. I would like it to stay on maybe a minute, and at the least 30 Seconds

I just found the solution for you:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\QKeyLedTimeout
Change this value to whatever you like - just tested it and it works!

huh, didn't work on mine.

Did not work on mine either. Actually it was already changed from the Kaiser Hack. Still Trying.

I swear - it's working on mine! Otherwise I wouldn't have stated "solved" that full-bodied!

Seems many folks can confirm it not working on the Sprint HTC T. P.
Yours is GSM? Maybe it's different enough to make the diff.

I've got an unbranded german device.

Worked like a charm on my Touch Pro.
Thanks alot for such a simple fix that helped alot.

Seems to be mixed reviews. The Sprint HTC TP does not respond to the setting. I am wondering if it has to do with the light sensor. I have been playing and no success. This is driving me crazy. I also hate how the home/backkey/phone keys shut down so fast.
I had a palm 700p, and switched to the touch pro (great device by the way), and ther was all kinds of utility software that developers were selling to control these types of issues.
I used a software program that would dim the lights, and keep them dim for a specified time, and them shut them off after a specified time.
To bad there is not a product like that applicable to the sprint TP.

Surely it worked with all. It might be another "overriding" configuration that is making the reg hack ineffective!!
It always worked on OEMs..

I have been going through my sprint TP with a fine tooth comb. I don't have any other configs that could over ride the reg edit, that I can see (programs also). I have not tweaked any other settings that I did not set back to the original that would interfere with the tweak.
Thanks, for the response, I will keep working on it.

Any update on this for the sprint tp's?
I've been annoyed by this for too long now.

No go for the Sprint TP's. Lots of folks looking for a solution on ppcgeeks. Oh well. Just another thing that Sprint tweaked for us, just like removing the FM radio.

Worked fine on my UK TP using ROMeOS, Big thanks to the poster, as this has been winding me up for a while.

Can't edit?
Where do I find HKCU?
Using Total Commander and can't find directory?
I must be doin somethin wrong?!

Yes, you are doing something wrong
In Total Commander go to the root of the filesystem, then to \\plugins and registry

Anybody tried it on a Fuze?

Just got the S730

I just bought the HTC S730 today
Where is the s730 forum here?
I have tried like a crazy person to get the 'built-in' gps to work, but i cant even find one satellite :-( Perhaps they have disabled it in the Rom...
Cant wait to hear from other users who have bought the final version of this phone and if they can get the gps to work..
Could you upload your HTC Home screen? I think a lot of users (including me ) are waiting here for this. Would you be so kind please?

As soon as I have time we will research it. If the hardware is really built in we will get it going some time (it *will* take time tho)
Got my S730 a few days ago. Loving it so far, except...
Couldn't find any satellites with Google Maps so the GPS does indeed appear to be disabled in the final ROM. I hope someone finds a "fix" for this soon. ;-)
Also, I can't get BlackBerry Connect 4.0.0.76 or 4.0.0.84 to connect RIM. My subscription is enabled (works fine on my BB Pearl) but I can't get a PIN on the S730. If anyone has managed to get this working, I'd love some help.
Cheers

I would be happy to. But i have no idea how to extract it from the phone?
Go to Application Data and the best is you copy the whole Home-Folder and upload it.
Here you go
Hope you can use it...
Can someone btw tell me how i can get more appointments to show in the HTC Home Screen?
Thank you very much! But not working on Vox, there are some missing files in system and plugin support.. I think the clsid is different from the Vox's one and it will be more difficult to make it work.. It only shows appointments I will do some researches
And your question - I tried to find it inside of xml, but not there.. HTC made a configurator to modify HTC home on PPC, so maybe for smartphones it also will appear.. I guess
GPS seems to be in HTC S730
I got my S730 today. Have tried with Efficasoft GPS Utilities for Smartphone v2.0 and Chartcross GPS Test Version 1.04. Both programs finds 0-1 satelliets, not enough for positioning, but there seems to be a GPS. But whay can't it identify enough of satellites?

*If* the hardware is indeed enabled, you might want to extract drivers from a Kaiser rom. Whether the hardware is indeed present and enabled is hard to determine from the unclear statements in this thread...

Please explain how we can verify if the GPS hardware is present and enabled? I tested with Google Maps and adamwasta used a number of other tools, so what can we do to make it less unclear for you? Thanks.
HTC TYTN II ----or----- HTC s730
Can someone please help me decide between the HTC Tytn II OR the HTC S730? I am a heavy texter, sometimes check email, and want a fast phone. I'm worried that the HTC s730's keyboard is not comfortable -- can someone that uses it give me a heads up on how comfortable/good it is? Is the WM Smartphone's UI annoying? - i've been using pocket pc for a long time & I just want to know if its difficult to switch to a standard smartphone like the HTC s730? Thanks in advance for your feedback & comments - they are all much appreciated
Hmmm i havent tried yhe Tytn so i cant compare the two phones. But i had a Touch before i bought my S730 and i must that it was a step in the right direction text-typing-wise... The s730 is not as good to type on as an Nokia Communicator (imo the best phone for typing), but it's pretty good. And its great to have two options for typing : numeric with T9 and the qwerty inside...
About the smartphone ui....Grrrrrr it is a little bit annoying.. I hate that the settings are so locked. You have far few options in the settings compared to the PPC interface. But then on the other hand there are some features that works better on the smartphone than on the PDA.
All in all i am a very happy little piggy with my S730. I would not trade it for any other phone on the market.

I am also pretty happy with the S730... i used to have a vox and a wizard i must say I keep going to press the screen on the s730 because i was used to ppc but im sure it wont take long for me to get used to it..
one thing battery for me at least seems to be an issue.. fully charged at 7am this morning I had 1 bar left by 11am... Martin is your battery life the same?
the keyboard on the s730 is excellent very good i am already beginning to become a gun on it.. as for the kaiser my friend has one they are way too big for me i guess you need to ask yourself do you want a phone with pda features or a pda with phone features?
Brisbane_guy : I have not expirenced such lousy battery time as you describe. My battery last for about 2 days and i dont turn it off at night. So about 48 hours. But i have disabled BT and WIFI most of the time...
Many thanks Martin & Brisbane for your feedback I'm going to buy the s730 based on your positive feedback

You really should consider the Asus P750. It's only 130g, has 3g, gps (sirf3), wlan, bt2.0, touchscreen, WM6 Prof, 520MHz ARM, 256MB flash and 64MB ram.
On Modaco someone called it the kaiser killer.

GPS on Raphael

Tested it out today, counted from when I opened OCN8 and it took exactly 30 seconds to get a fix. Perfectly acceptable if you ask me, especially seeing as I'll only use it for long drives.

With A-GPS, I don't think you can turn it off.
Only one GPS setting: Enable AGPS: Checkbox.
No, I haven't done any button mapping to the other person who asked.
Is the device as fast as shown in unwired videos?

Yep, 26 seconds for me using Garmin.
And yes, mine is as fast as the videos. Definitely an improvement over the Diamond, despite the Diamond's speed improvements with recent cooked ROM's.
Amazing what a bit of extra RAM will do...
Great, thanks for the info
Since you're using Garmin
I've always found it's notifications to be quite lower than other GPS s/w even when placing an attention tone prior
Is it any louder on the Raph speakers in comparison with Kaiser?

Make sure to download QuickGPS before you use those programs, that may be your issue.

Are you outside or inside some building?
GPS works fine for me in both Google Maps and TomTom Navigator. Indoors is not so great, but whilst in a car it was fine all the way home on a 30 minute journey!

I'm in my house, my Kaiser right next to it is working fine.
GPS isn't supposed to work indoors... If you need it indoors, you may also need to be living in a psychiatric ward. :\
I got full signal in front of my house according to OCN8's little GPS status bar, for those who care.
As mentioned earlier, QuickGPS will help (hopefully as it has been useless for me since Kaiser WM6.1 ROMs started to be cooked)
BUT
You need to give it time first to aquire GPS fix alone THEN go back to your PC to download the QuickGPS data
To make sure you have everything afterwards successful,
reboot your PDA and see if you can aquire a faster fix.
You can test with GPSTest attached here.
If it didn't solve your problem, check with other fellow Raph holder their Radio versions and yours.
If you are to flash, do not forget to HardSPL your device.
Good luck and give us more feedback

@fireblade63
I'd say the notification volume in Garmin is about the same as it is in the Kaiser, so I agree - it's certainly not the loudest, but I'm someone who likes the Sat-Nav turned down a bit anyway. I hate having the things shouting at me, especially if there are other people in the car who I'm trying to talk to.
My father-in-law, on the other hand, could never cope with the Garmin / Raphael combination because he turns his TomTom XL up to full volume, which drives me mental on the odd occasion I have to experience it!
So, no, the Raphael is no louder as far as I can tell.

AT&T Fuze

I've had TONS of PM's recently (12 in the 3 days I was in VT) so I wanted to clear some things up and answer a few questions.
1) ROM DUMP... The ROM incognitho posted is the one on my Fuze, same radio and everything. If that doesn't give you 3G, no ROM/radio will.
2) MMS... Your Raphael automatically obtains the same settings as mine for MMS, if it doesn't work, fix it through AT&T.
3) Software/hardware capabilities... The G-sensor calibrator, FM radio and TV out all function completely after the software was installed. Thanks to sub69 and schaps.
Any more questions so my PM box stops overflowing?
Keep negativity elsewhere as I'm already on thin ice, I'll answer anything I can but once the mudslinging starts this thread is gone.
I'm afraid that black may be right on the 3g in the US. If his rom & radio don't give the UK touch pro 3g in the states, I really don't know what else can be done to open it up as that rom/radio do enabe the 3g on his touch pro. I really do hope I'm wrong as I currenly have a UK touch pro in the US but when the fuze comes out I know I will have no problem selling it and I'll just get the Fuze. It's a shame because I think I would like the layout of the UK keyboard better than the Fuze. Only time will tell I guess.
Well, I can't say I know that the hardware is different (nix the keyboard/camera/etc), but I do know my phone works flawlessly on 3G/HSPA with the currently available radio/ROM. I'm sorry to hear people have tried this with no success, as that means many people have wasted a grand for no 3G. :-(

No, the ROM wont work straight out. It would have to be ported to work on the Hermes. There was one ported for the Kaiser (IBI) but i don't think anything for the Hermes was released.

Nothing, I tried twice. I don't know what could possibly be the problem. I'm going to try to change the layout on my cellphone to see if that might fix it.

[Q] HTC TOUCH 2 Sensitivity

Are There any '.cab' or Registry Edits that can help increase the sensitivity on my HTC Touch 2.
Many Thanks.
I have noticed that the HTC Touch 2 works much faster if the nail is used , but i guess that this is because it is more like a stylus , but as i really don't have the time to be taking out my stylus every-time i want to use my phone i would like to know if there is any other ways around it.

Don't really think it will work. Sensitivity is influenced by the OS AND (!) the screen's abilities. I think that you can't really increase it. I can't say for sure though, I'll ask my dad for his Touch2 to try it out some time later.

This really works. My Touch2 is now a lot more sensitive and is much easier to use. I recommend every one who uses a touch2, as the touchscreen sensitivity is very bad, to download and install this. It works perfectly. Before whenever I recieved a call, and attempted to answer it, clicking the answer button, it would never answer and it end-call. NOW IT WORKS PERFCTLY.
Thanks , it s really work
Thanks
its really works on HTC Touch VIVA
Hello!
Crazy but it works! nice!
