Hi all
I have been building customized CAB files for my Mini and have uploaded my "Snow" fix for the Magician.
This is Guaranteed not to reset after soft reset, simply download and install this CAB file into you main memory.
Tested on ROM V1.11
The settings are fixed at
Contrast = 5
Brightness = 6
Saturation = 3
Hue = 5
Sharpness = 3
You can customize your settings if you need "Special" settings then simply hit the "Reset" button in the camera settings and it will reset back to no snow.
If you want different settings just change them or let me know and I’ll change them for you.
What is "Snow" fix ?

The standard camera settings in the Magician produce a photo that has a lot of "speckles" in the photo especially in dark pictures. You can manual adjust the settings to fix the photo but the problem was after you did a soft reset the settings went back to standard (speckle’y).
This CAB holds the settings after a reset.
Sorry I didn't know. I just never tried to use the cam that much.
And thanks for the cab!
Yes... the "speckles" are annoying. I always thought that I had to warm up my ppc after i turned it on to get rid of the "speckles". And yes, it's very bad in dark light.
I have ROM 1.12 - let's see if this cab works on it.
Also, is it the same thing as setting it permanantly in the registry ?

Yes it sets and locks it in, even after soft reset. Only tested on my ROM V1.11 so far so if it works report back.
Thanks
I have a 1.12 ROM and the changed settings are not getting reflected even after a soft reset!!
I have a 1.12 ROM and the changes were applied. Pictures are nice and crisp now!!

Hi. A few months ago member adit posted a small program called Camera profile. See link http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=26387&highlight=camera+settings+profiles. It's a nice program to use different camera profiles. There is only one problem: the chosen settings don't become active until a reset in the main Camera program.
Perhaps you can help to fix this problem, perhaps by combining your program with the program of adit??? I would be very pleased...
Hi ampda,
How did you apply the registry to the camera without doing a soft reset? on what did you develop this? is this an application? sorry but i sold my xda mini and got an xphone so i can't really test it, but i would happily update my software as long as there are some people find it useful. thanks.

Hi,
After downloading the cab and saw the registry editing i saw this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Camera\Property\01]
"Sharpness"=dword:00000003
"Contrast"=dword:00000005
"Brightness"=dword:00000006
"Saturation"=dword:00000003
"Hue"=dword:00000005
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Camera\Property\02]
"Sharpness"=dword:00000003
"Contrast"=dword:00000005
"Brightness"=dword:00000006
"Saturation"=dword:00000003
"Hue"=dword:00000005
although i cannot test it but i think this makes the immediate effect on the camera but can anyone confirm this? does the camera immediately take effect after you change these values? if this is true, then i will update it asap. thanks.

Yep there the ones, and yes i can confirm that the CAB file above adjusts the settings without a reset.
If you don't change those settings the settings reset after a soft reset, I'm guessing these are the default, default settings.
The more you hack the more you learn, I'm worried them is a limit of soft resets as my Magician gets about 20 per night from testing different settings. :shock:
I have built a lot of "ampda" standard CAB files so i can hard reset and have e full customized Magician in about 1min without the need of a back up app.
They aren't a secrete i just spent some time going through the registry working and testing different settings.
"adit" please feel free to hack the settings and add them to your app, can you send me or post the new version if you combine them.
UPDATE
OK the above registry settings by themselves won't change the settings with or without a reset. The other registry settings in the CAB file change them without a reset and these hold them after a reset.
Does that make sense? If you need more testing just let me know here or PM if you want.[/b]

I changed all settings in de registry manually, so also \Camera\AppDefSettings\General\Brightness, Brightness_User and the other settings. But that doesn't change the settings either without doing a reset in de Camera program. Perhaps the setting remain in memory and aren't reread from the registry when you start the camera?
@ampda: hmm if the settings i mentioned above doesn't change the camera with or without reset then there's no point. In my app I changed all the registry except those i mentioned.
@pietrucci: did you try changing the registry i quoted above?
So is it true that the settings apply without a reset? because thats the only problem in my app. So if you can find which registry changes the camera settings immediately after you change the settings then its a go. note that you better close the camera app first, change the registry, and then run the camera app again. See if the changes apply. if not then... but on older rom version (pre 1.09) it works immediately. but since that time i was using ver 1.11 it didn't work so i stopped working on it.
::adit
Oh btw ampda, there is no limit in soft reset :wink: might damage ur stylus tho if u dont be careful and when it does the edge becomes sharp and scratches ur screen when ur using it :twisted: good luck

OK I made 2 seperate CAB files and the resaults are as follows;
These settings change the camera without a reset.
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\General]
"EnableIPSM"=dword:00000001
"EnableDayTimePath"=dword:00000000
"CheckBatteryTime"=dword:0000003C
"Ambience"=dword:00000000
"EnableHopper"=dword:00000001
"EnableFrameRate"=dword:00000000
"EnableAutoFlicker"=dword:00000001
"FlickerSelection"=dword:00000000
"ShutterSound"=dword:00000001
"BackLight"=dword:00000001
"ActionScreen"=dword:00000001
"Saturation_User"=dword:00000003
"Sharpness_User"=dword:00000003
"Hue_User"=dword:00000005
"Brightness_User"=dword:00000006
"Contrast_User"=dword:00000005
"Sharpness"=dword:00000003
"Hue"=dword:00000005
"Saturation"=dword:00000003
"Brightness"=dword:00000006
"Contrast"=dword:00000005
And these setings lock the camera so is won't reset back to a snow storm (original settings).
After downloading the cab and saw the registry editing i saw this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Camera\Property\01]
"Sharpness"=dword:00000003
"Contrast"=dword:00000005

Does this help

Yes I did, all the settings in the registry.

No, I regret to say it doesn't on my device...
I took a test: I first changed the Contrast setting in my camera program to 9.
Then I changed every Contract setting in the registry to 7:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\General\Contrast_User]=dword:00000007
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\AppDefSettings\General\Contrast]=dword:00000007
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Camera\Property\01\Contrast]=dword:00000007
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Camera\Property\02\Contrast]=dword:00000007
Then I restarted my camera program: the Contrast settings remained to 9.
Then when I clicked the Reset: it finally changed to 7.
So my conclusion: till now I can't change my Contrast setting by a registrychange without a reset!
(by the way: my ROM version is 1.12.).
Big problem...
pietrucci did you run the CAB file i uploaded? and if so did it change your settings without a reset.

But I'm willing to try immediately. Please can you attach them in a reply? I can't reach the xda ftp-server (resticted from my work laptop).

Ampda, as stated before: I’m afraid your Cabs won’t do the trick. I changed all the registry entries you mentioned in your last post manually. And my settings didn’t change! (again: until I hit the reset button in the camera program).
So if your cabs do the same thing I did, I think they won’t do the trick either…
hi guys
I may be being dumb but is there a way to make the swype keyboard the permanent default after rebooting the phone.
just a pain in the backside having to go into the keyboard option every time.
loving my phone at the moment! great site!
all of this posted from my hd2
Me too, everytime I soft reset, it reverts back to original keyboard.
Swype is fabulous!
Search for a cab on here called Sip Change. Might be here ..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583638
Run it and then select your referred keyboard.

Hey!
I accidently removed all of the standard themes thinking it would save me space, but I also removed the HTC theme which now gives me this blue ugly background and skins . Does anybody has the standard themes on .cab or know of a way to restore them?
Or perhaps some slick alternative themes?
They should be still there, believe me
After a HardReset have a look into your Windows-folder - look for *.tsk-files and there you go.

Yeah but a hard reset deletes all the files right? Installed applications etc. Or did you mean soft reset?
I found them!
Thanks man!!!!!
Where did you find the original themes at? I'm having the same problem
Hello all,
I've compiled a cab file which overwrites the standard PowerOffHint.exe in the windows directory of your TG01 with an enhanced version of EndKey3.6. Now when you perform a long press on the power button the program will execute and list a set of action options, these options include:
Toggle Bluetooth
Toggle Wi-Fi
Toggle Data Connection
Toggle Vibrate
Screen Off
Soft Reset &
Power Off
Credit for the original concept goes to johcos for the EndKey program.
Credit also goes to JHML for the JMLcomm tool & virgilp for the ScreenOff program, both of which I've utilized in this project.
The action menu has been re-skinned by myself(influenced by the GTX theme) to accommodate the revised features included for the TG01 device.
I hope that you find this application useful. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards,
fitzy-boy
Now it work well.
Thank you very much.
Cheers

Haha great!
Once I figured out what was causing the issue with the device not turning off it was a simple case of finding a way around it & the EndKey replacement utility has the ability to do just that. It was then just a case of removing what didn't work/wasn't needed like resetting Sense and replacing with tools that others may find useful like toggling Bluetooth on & off.
Thanks for letting me know that it's working on your device.
Kindest regards,
fitzy-boy
wooou, really cool stuff!!!

Hi mirolg,
First of all I’m really looking forward to your next Sense ROM release for the TG01.
As for the original skin for PowerOffHint Replacement I tried to keep as faithful to the GTX theme as possible & the font I was provided with didn’t render well in bold type.
However I’ll be more than happy to give it another whirl using a different font style.
Also didn’t you mention you were using this in miROM6? Which is a German language ROM? If so, I’d be more than happy to make a German version with the changes you’ve already requested.
Kindest regards,
fitzy-boy
Hello fitzy-boy,
Thanks for this tool, it's a very good work !
I test to do OEM package to integrate it on my FRA ROM build works but when I click on "JMLComm", "PowerOffHint", etc... I have a message wich say "Can't open file ..... not signed with a trusted certificate ....."
Have you got any idea ?

Thanks for your answer, I have test with auto-cabinstall but this cab requires a reboot so when you install the ROM, auto-cabinstall don't stop you must press Power button for reboot and the auto-cabinstall restart after few seconds ....
With OEM I have almost succeeded, just shutdown don't work .....

You have right my friend I take your Cabs collection and with your "PowerOffHint" it's works ....
Thanks a lot !
Great Cab.
It's my numero uno since I installed it.
But.... It won't autorotate and is there a way to skin it differently as I don't use Sense? I'm old school and prefer to use Titanium.

Hello b0s,
As far as I am aware Endkey Replacement never came with that feature built in. You'll have to ask johcos if it's something he's willing to look at in future updates.
As for skinning, yes to can customize the look of the app by changing the .brn files.
Hope this is of help to you,
Kind regards,

I made a hard reset in my HTC touch diamond 2 phone and can not find in order to install thew 3d Touch flo application I am using the wm 6.5 screen. Can the touchflo 3D app be purchased in order to get it installed again in my phone?
Have you tried going into Settings\Today\Items and choosing "Sense".
Sense (TF3D) is native to your phone even with a hard reset.
