Hardware Buttons - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
i installed UbiControl on an Windows Mobile 6.1 Device(Palm Treo Pro). UbiControl is a Software to Control the User Rights. For example to block changing WIFI or GPRS Settings.
When i installed the Software the Hardware Buttons loose their funktions. When i try to reconfigure the Buttons the Area to Configure the Bottons is empty.
e.g. The List before the installation.
Anyone knows where i can find it in the registry to backup it??
Thanks a lot!
Bye

Solved!
I solved the problem, the Installation of Ubicontrol delete the keys under following location: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys.
I backup the keys, and add them with a provisioning cab after the installation of Ubicontrol.
bye

hehe... congrats

Blackberry Conncet / Treo 750V Problem

Hi Folks,
I know, there are so many postings about problems with the Palm 750v and Blackberry Connect. But because I desperately need help and I can not find a solution for my problem, I raise this question again.
My device:
Treo 750v from Vodafone Germany
Software-Version: TREO750-1.16-VFD (latest one)
Firmware: 1.12.0c.00
For Blackberry I am using the software which Palm and Vodafone promote on their homepage.
Blackberry-Version: 2.1.1.31
My company has an Enterprise server an everything is set-up properly.
NOW THE PROBLEM:
Once it starts connecting to the server, after the message DatecTunnel is available it is going to turn to: NO CONNECTION and this is not going to change.
By the way, the PIN is generated without any problem or failure again.
Pls Folks try to help me, because otherwise my destiny will be that I will be forced by the company to change to a BB device :-( So guys, this is a real emergency case.
Looking forward to your kind reply.
Bye

With firmware 1.12.0c you have to use the client 2.1.2.52 attached in this thread:

Hi, thanks for your suggestion. I tried it, but it did not work either.
Any other idea ? I am getting mad about that.
Thanks in advance for your kind help.

Hi, I re-install everything, soft reseted and now it connects. This is the first step, but still I can not receive and send any mail. Any idea ?
You have to cradle the device with the BlackBerry Desktop Configuration Tool for Windows Mobile on a PC within your company network. This way you connect to your companys BES and get the service books you need.
Sorry, maybe I did not mentioned it. I did this already, but still, no success.
maybe I have to use a different version as well ?
Do you have service books on the device? Check the settings in start >> system >> blackberry.
Normally when you start the BB connect desktop and click on connect, you have to generate a key by moving the mouse. Then your calendar is loaded to the device. Did that happen?
Yes, services are booked. I generated the key and calender was loaded. that is all fine. but still no emails are delivered
Delete the service books (should be 3: ALP, CMIME and CICAL). Then cradle the Treo again and click on connect. Calendar is loaded and key generated.
Plug out the device and make sure that no other programs as Active Sync or Internet Explorer are running in the background (check in task manager on the Treo). Then go to blackberry settings and use the option "register now"
Did it, but no change. The only thing I realized, that a key was not generated, by moving the mouse, because system did not asked for it. But when I see the BB Desktop Software, my PIN is still there. Maybe how to clean the BB Desktop Software ? I de-install and install it again, but the PIN is still there. Does it has something to do with that ?
To make sure that everything is fine on your side, do the following:
Uninstall the Desktop Configuration tool.
Then install this version:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/activesync_bbconnect_desktop_setup_4.0.0.17.zip
Don' t use the default path, change it to another one.
Uninstall the BB client from Treo.
When asked if you want to preserve configuration settings, check no.
Reboot the Treo.
Install the BB client again.
Reboot the Treo and when you are connected do register now.
Then cradle the Treo to the new desktop tool and click configure wireless device.
If you still get no emails then, there is a problem with the settings of your user on the BES and you should contact your BlackBerry administrator.
Hi !
I checked with my Admin and with Vodafone. Finally it was a problem on Vodafone side.
That is the comment from VF: I have checked the Phonenumber. The User uses a Palm-Device, and on the RIM-Database, was the Device a Prosumer-Device.
So I changed the settings on the RIM-DB, and resend the necessary Servicebooks. The Device should work better now (maybe make a Softreset from the Palm)
After that and a soft reset all works great.
Thanks for your kind help, which I appreciated a lot.

Hi can you explain how you changed the RIM-DB settings? I have the same issue changing from an E61 trying to setup a Voda 750v

Sorry, I can not tell you, because my ADMIN did that in co-operation with VF. But it seems, that if at VF side your device is registered as a BB it will not work, therefore there must change it. Call your ADMIN and VF and tell them that you are running the BB service with a WM device and tell them it's a PALM Treo.

Annoyed ... ActiveSync connection opens Windows Explorer

I'm putting this under General because I don't think it's specific to any phone. I have the Sprint Mogul and updated to the 3.16 ROM. I've only done a few other tweaks and added HTC Home. My issue is everytime I connect/disconnect to my PC via USB, ActiveSync starts and then Windows Explorer opens. I don't know why Windows Explorer opens, but don't like it. Is there some way of turning this off?
ActiveSync opens Explorer too
Yes, I'm experiencing the same, but It looks like there is no hope. Another folk posted it in microsoft forum and someone called "help_line" gave some couple hints but couldn't figure out the problem and left us alone.
its probably some type of autorun.......
i would imagine it is computer side, not phone side.
Hehe this is an old windows problem. What happens is that a program tries to launch another program which is located in a folder containing spaces, such as "Program Files". The path to this program should be enclosed in quotation sign to avoid this problem. You need to fins out which program AS tries to open, find it in the registry and change it. For example if your path is this:
C:\Program Files\myprogram\foo.exe
change the string to
"C:\Program Files\myprogram\foo.exe"
I had the same problem and a search found the answer. It's in the registry on your PC somewhere. There's a setting about wehat the PC does when it detects a connection through ActiveSync (and another action for disconnecting). You have to delete those keys.
The Registry Key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AutoStartOnConnect]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AutoStartOnDisconnect]
I deleted those keys and it stopped happening. I think something corrupts them. They re-appear later but without the problem.
Hope that helps.

Comm Manager - missing discriptions for icons?

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.

WM6 How to change default location SMS storage folders

Hello everybody,
I look on Google and i couldn't find a software that would solve my problem.
So, I hope some one would be nice to help me
Here is my question : is it possible to change the default location of all the SMS folders into a storage card ?
This is why : I have a HTC TyTn II WM6.1, and a friend of my who have a HTC Cruise, we both knew the same problem : suddenly the mobile phone doesn't answer any more at any command, and an ActiveSync or a soft reset can't free the mobile again, everything is frozen and only a hard reset can make the mobile works again, but we loose datas, specially the SMS.
So, if i suceed to change default locations for softwares and datas in the storage card, i would like to do so for the SMS, then, next time the system will frozen,i can hard reset it without losing datas and SMS.
I could find softwares to export SMS for saving, but if the HTC is frozen, i can't make the saving operation.
Does anyone have any idea please ?
Thank you anyway for reading

Windows mobile automatically close tomtom after 10 min

Hello,
I have an HTC Touch Cruise with windows mobile 6.1. I use it on my motorcycle with TOMTOM NAVIGATOR, and earphones. I config TOMTOM, push the today screen and lock my phone. It works perfect for 10 min.
After the 10 min, windows mobile displays a message:
"TOMTOM NAVIGATOR is still running an using the battery would you like to close NAVIGATOR", you must aswer the question with YES or NO.
If you do not answer the question, windows mobile close the NAVIGATION software. > very irritating....
Is there an solution to disable this battery saving function, so the NAVIGATION software must never stop automatically...
Thanks
it only asks if tomtom is running in background
I reckon your screen lock is behaving as foreground app. first try to run tomtom without keylocker, if the issue is gone, search for different keylocker.
otherwise, there is no trigger, nor registry for this.
Not working
Hello,
I have tried to not locking my phone, but only running tomtom with windows mobile today screen.
Then also i recieve the question.. Are there other solutions, or this problem ?
something is running in front of it. Something on your pda is behaving as front app. You need to find out what is it and stop it from running.
use a proper task manager like fdc. post out list of processes here. We will tell you what else it could be. Which procs are required and which you can safely kill.
There is no tweak to stop the pop up question. You can run a script which would wait for it and always answer yes, but that's not proper solution
reply
Hello,
If you have an script what always saying NO, it is perfect.
Here are the proccesse that are running:
NK.EXE
filesys.exe
tmail.exe
device.exe
SAPSettings.exe
gwes.exe
shell32.exe
services.exe
connmgr.exe
cprog.exe
QuickDail.exe
APLauncher.exe
MediaHubMini.exe
Biotouch.exe
GNAngent.exe
sddaemon.exe
repllog.exe
TaskManager.exe
TomTom Navigator.exe
Do you know what procces is causes the note? maby i can kill it..?
These you can kill safely:
in order what I suppose could cause your trouble.
GNAngent.exe - google nav
APLauncher.exe
MediaHubMini.exe
QuickDail.exe
SAPSettings.exe
Biotouch.exe
these below are just standard winmo apps, shouldn't be doing problems, but you can close them for a try:
connmgr.exe - comm manager
tmail.exe - mails
repllog.exe - activesync
sddaemon.exe - speed dial
cprog.exe - phone functions
can't kill:
services.exe
device.exe
shell32.exe
gwes.exe
filesys.exe
NK.EXE
===
use the same proram for closing app, upper toolbar on bottom, 3rd icon from left. close all except those I wrote you can't and give it a try.
it should help, then you need to find out which of them is trouble maker and remove start command of it.
If this won't work, I can send you that script.
Not working
Hello,
I have killed all the proccess:

try the new version first,
for this script you need to install mortscript (cab\mortscript-ppc.cab). then copy file RunTT.mscr from runTT.zip to windows folder and .lnk file to windows\start menu\programs
I have no idea if it will work though. there is commented out another option for pressing the key, try to switch them if it will not work like it is.
Hey guys.
Was a solution found to this? I too use TTNavigator7 on my motorbike and have the same problem with WM6.5 closing TTN after 10 minutes. WM6 asks if I would like to close Navigator and if I don't answer, Navigator is closed and then the phone goes into sleep mode after the normal sleep timeout.
Of course, I could power up the phone when on my bike using a USB cable, but that would negate the benefits of the Bluetooth receiver that I've just attached to my intercom system on my Harley.
The HD2 was an upgrade from a TYTN II running TTN6. The timeout problem did not occur with that combination!
I've tried to stop the problem using Keepawake and Deltalock but neither works (I used Deltalock successfully on my previous phone).
I so hope that there's a decent solution to this problem.

Hi Papo
I've installed MortScript and tried out your RunTT script. Mortscript seems to not be recognising that Windows has displayed the notification. I suspect that it may be because it's a notification rather than a full window - does this seem likely to you?
I'm sure that this is where the problem lies - I've added lines to the script to display debug messages and the code to respond to the notification is never getting executed.
Is there any way that you can suggest to trap the notification within Mortscript please - I haven't used Mortscript enough to know where to look next.
Thanks
Neil
Hi Guys
I've cracked this problem - I couldn't do it by trapping the notification, so I attacked it a different way. The attached script just counts how long TomTom has been in background and then makes it the active window every nine minutes to stop the timeout.
If external power is used, or if TomTom is brought to foreground, then the counter is reset and the counter is only restarted when the power cable is unplugged or TomTom is sent to background.
The process relies on the KeepAwake program. The script will automatically load KeepAwake if it's not running.
It's my first Mortscript, so it may not be coded the way experienced scriptwriters would write it so if anyone wants to suggest improvements, then I'll be happy to take them on board.
When I'm out and about on my bike, I use a program called deltaLock by Christophe Sommer to lock the screen. I set deltaLock to use the HTC back button to unlock and Lock Mode set to "black screen" (I used this on my Tytn II with TTN6).
Happy to receive any feedback
Neil
