"Unlock" Screen - diverence between WM5 & WM6.1 - General Questions and Answers

Hi Guys!
My question is about the first screen when you wake up the phone from stand by. On my old HTC Wizard with WM5 it was enough to just type the PIN and it unlocked - now on my HTC Raphael with WM6.1 I have to type the PIN and touch "Entsperren" - I guess it's "Unlock" in english ROMs. Is there a way to change that issue?
Thanks a lot for your help and please excuse my english!
Greetings
Marc

Flashed english WM6 but need AZERTY keyboard

Hi,
I flashed WM6 - crossbow 1.5 - on a french qtek so I have a french keyboard. I tried to change the registry with the registry editor Total commander; I opened the program on the device and went to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]. I created a New String Value name: Locale; I typed in the Value Data: 040c (for french keyboard) and I held the powerbutton for a few seconds until asked if I really wanted to switch your device off, and clicked on YES then restarted it...
and I am still in QWERTY mode when I type on my AZERTY keyboard :-(
Any ideas?
Cheers,
GG

Did you wait 30 seconds to 1 minute before turning off the phone? In WM6 registry entries can be lost if you change them then immediately soft reset the device. Is your registry change still there? If not try again. If it is, I'll have to defer to someone that knows more about switching the keyboard type.
thanks for your answer.
I indeed for sure did not wait any time before soft reseting the phone
Althoug now I waited one minute... it still not working
I am locked into an english keyboard. I can see the registry entry being there and being the one I made and .. not working...
Should I change anything else to make it work?
Thanks for helping me in advance
Cheers,
GG

Xt9 - how to turn it off!

Hi guys, i just updated my Artemis to use WM6 "[11/11/07] Artemis Touch 3.01 WM6 WWE ROM, 5.2.1921 SDHC (Full, Lite and Vanilla)". And it comes with XT9, which for me.. is REALLY anoying... i really don't use it at all, and since i'm dutch the english words arn't really representive for me.
searched the forum for Xt9 doesn't give me any results, and online i can only find hacks that also disable the shift key or whatever. I can disable it temporarily by changing to one of the other keyboard layouts, choose ABC and then turn to the regular keyboard.. But after a few seconds it will reapear.
Also a site said that alt+spacebar gives you a selection screen to turn it off.. But then again the onscreen keyboard hasn't got a alt key......
So how can i permenantly turn it off, without losing any other functionality?
use sip change that will change the default unput method for the soft keyboard
Hi, AstainHellbring.... I found V1.1 on the forum, but it let's me choose the input method but doesn't allow me to disable xt9..... can't find any newer version.

Waking my (Vodafone) Raphael UK - slide the keyboard only?

Hi guys
My dear ol' Raphael goes to sleep after a while, if I don't use it for a min. Well that's all fine and dndy, but if I want to check a contact or something, I can only wake Raphael by slide the keyboard out/in - is this the only way to do this? Is there a tweak or something?

power button on top
pull the stylus out
D'oh! Cheers mate! Have a good christmas!

Palm Treo 500v

Hi everyone. I recently bought mentioned smartphone. There are two problems with it.
The vodafone menu- how to disable it? It's so slow...
And the major problem, the qwertz keyboard. Is there any simple metod to change places of y and z keys? It drives me crazy. This is realy important guys.
Oh, and sorry for my poor english.
if you find how to disable the vodafone menu, let me know please
Here you can find something useful. I think we should just map start menu to the softkey. Too bad I don't know which .exe launches it.
Voda menu process is launched not on system start but on keypress I guess. So we can have a little more memmory available. I mapped right softkey to the "Main menu" and my device runs smoother. Try this

Lock PIN screen from new HTC devices (Diamond2, Touch Pro2) - anyone ported?

I'm on Kaiser device with WM6.5 ROM. Since I use a PIN to lock my device, I'm really confused with the way I have to type in the device PIN when unlocking the device in WM6.5. With new HTC devices like Diamond2 or TouchPro2 there is a nice unlock screen (with big buttons and one unlock button at the bottom). Does anyone know how to port it for QVGA device like Kaiser?
