Good manual for Windows Mobile??

Hi there,
sorry, one more question: I am still searching for a manual that lists and explains ALL windows mobile settings on my HTC S710.
The HTC manual itself is just good for a start but not comprehensive enough to cover all options.
Can anybody help?
Many thanks
Andi

the HTC manual that comes with the phone is the only manual for this device. You can download the pdf version of it from the HTC website.
and if there is anything you are confused about just ask in the forum here and you'll get the reply very quick...

Hi,
many thanks for the quick answer. I think the HTC manual is not very good as there are many options just missed out to be described.
But here you go, I am firing off some questions on settings now (hope I can translate them as good as possible, have a german OS
Sounds Settings
- Reminder - When is this sound fired?
- New instant message - when this?
- New channel message - what is a channel message?
Profile details
- Alarm volume - which kind of alarm, only the clock alarm?
- Notification volume - for which notification is this?
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for?
Unlock screen clock
- what is this and where can I find this?
ActiveSync
- is there any way I can set a kind of "retry"? The exchange server in our company sometimes comes back with an error 403 on first trial, but works fine when trying it a second time. However, automatic update is therefore not possible
General question on WLAN
- If I have a WLAN connection and a GPRS connection, which one will be preferred?
Sorry, so many questions. But would really looking forward on getting some answers to them.
Many many thanks to all upfront.
Bests

Sounds Settings
- Reminder - fired when you have a appointment or event.
- New instant message - if you use windows live and get a IM
- New channel message - I think most probably msg by network operator (call cost etc)
Profile details
- Alarm volume - which kind of alarm, only the clock alarm - yes
- Notification volume - for which notification is this - reminders etc
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for? - after that time screen turns black
Unlock screen clock
- what is this and where can I find this - if you enable this and lock the keypad, you will have a clock on the unlock screen. Press and hold the red key to enable keypad lock.
ActiveSync
- is there any way I can set a kind of "retry"? - NO
General question on WLAN
- If I have a WLAN connection and a GPRS connection, which one will be preferred? - WLAN is much faster!

Thanks, just one doubt
Hi Prajith,
many thanks for your answers. Made some things clearer to me now.
Just I have one doubt about the setting:
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for? - after that time screen turns black
This is set to 10 minutes on my Vox, but my screen turns black after 1 minute already.
So I guess this setting is something different than you meant?
Many thanks
Andi

When you are in a program and do anything it'll go back to homescreen after that time!

thanks frauhottelmann for correcting me.
i guess i was drunk when i wrote tht

Thanks !
Hi,
thanks both of you. Now it makes perfectly sense to me
Have a nice weekend

Two modifications?

sorry if this is not the right place, but I have a HTC P3300 with WM6, 2 questions:
1. How do I customize the END and SEND buttons to show call history or lock the screen? registry edit or any software?
2. Also any software the lists all the missed calls on today screen or scrolls them instead of just showing the number of missed calls?
any help is appreciated.
thanks

Missed calls icon to display all calls ?

I would like the missed called icon to display all calls instead of missed calls only.
Any idea of the registry key to tweak ?
Thanks for your help !

s2u2 and the original htc "incoming call window"

hello!!!
I would like to know how can I disable the original incoming call window (with foto and slider). I have the S2U2, and I want to use the S2U2 incoming call window. But I cannot use it, because every time the original HTC HD2 window is "over" the S2U2...
I have the SPB MS. Also I use HD2 tweak, and BSB Tweaks...
best rgds!

install the cab "Touch X disable lock" at this thread: http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584415
This is a very good thread to do some mods, go over it and use whatever you want.

Or...

What version are you using? I believe the latest already incorporates a option to disable the original lock screen without installing a separate cab.
Might want to check their web site here
Hope this works for you!

I'm using the 2.40version. Ok, it's not a problem with the original lock screen...I don't have problems with the S2U2 lock screen, everything is working fine...the problem is with the original screen slider to receive the incoming call...S2U2 have his own screen slider ( S2A Caller ID) and I would like to use it...but I can't because the original HTC screen is always on the top...I don't see any option in the S2U2 option to disble this original HTC Caller ID...Also I cannot find any .cab to disbale it...
here you have the screen capture:

My bad, thought you where having problems with the lock screen. I've used S2U2 for a while and I don't have the problem. (Not sure why) Only get S2U2's caller Id when receiving a call,
Sorry buddy

I think you'll have to ask this in the S2U2 thread, and not here...

Agreed..

HELP!
I also have the problem with the original CallerID over the S2u2 one..
Could you please share the answer to this problem here?

Useful options?

Hello. Maybe someone know or have some mods for front panel buttons (to set delay time for example 6sec) and option for "vibrate when someone receives the call" and minute signal when calling. Would be nice to enable it again in samsung firmware . Thx
