****if there are any other reg tips hacks tweaks anything post in here****
***if you have any tips or tricks not in reg edits but just normal tips please post here***
i have tested all my reg edits and they do you work!!!!! like a charm

Thanks bereda , Very Good One. I Saw the difference in performance

no problem if you no anymore just list them my favorite one is the annoying sound one for spb it clicks really loud when you strike a key and i mean its loud!! it made my head pound like a drum haha and the performance one if you pair it with the graphics speed up it makes a big difference

ROM
Hi,
Does it matter if I have changed from the original ROM ?

@bereda
What´s the source this tweaks come from?
Tip: Backup the registry before changing it!

i was googleing and found the site i think its ppc tweaks but the stated that these will only work in wm5 but i gave them a shot on my elfin and it worked even with the custom rom but i guess you can do them on a stock rom you just need a registry editor

Easier way..
Easier way for who do not know / want to touch the register in the first person..
the cabs only made the first two reg hacks..
(i do not made the third reg hock because I not have the spb, so I could not test it..
Thanks a lot bereda!

Or use Schap's Advance Config -> tab Performance to change the values comfortably

There are so many registry editors, the most used is PHM Registry Editor
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/

My Mobile isn't able to install that program, really dont know why :s
Maybe you have another one?

NP - i found another program.
It loads the registry from the mobile, but it
runs at the computer, sounds great actually!

[Q] How to disable zoom in IE6 on WM6.5?

Hi Guys,
I'm developing a browser-application with Microsoft Device Emulator in VGA-Mode (480x640). Even the website is 480 pixels in width, the Internet Explorer 6 always zooms in factor 2 by default. I need to disable that, 'cause no user likes to scroll the zoom-slider every time he reloads the website.
I checked this before:
1) Registry settings for viewport width set to 480.
(HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Viewport Width
2) I tried 0 and 1 for HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\InteractiveZoom. No difference.
3) Inserted meta-tag in my website:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=480; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=1.0; user-scalable=0;" />
Nothing.
I hope that anyone has an idea howto fix that.
Thanks in advance!

Did you ever find a solution
I got exactly the same issue.
Did you manage to solve the problem?

Any way to increase font size in IE?

My aging eyes have a hard time focusing on the text in IE even when I double tap to zoom in. Is there a system setting or is there a third-party app that will allow me to make text bigger?

I found some interesting things in the phones registry
I went here and found this interesting value in Registry Editor:
My Device > HKEY_CURRENT_USER > ControlPanel > Accessibility > FontSize
and the FontSize is set to Value = 1, Dword
But I haven't tried changing anything and I DO NOT RECOMMENT you to change anything until some people who wants to try it has tried to check so the phone doesnt brick/break.

I appreciate the answer I don't mind risking my Focus since I am upgrading. I'll give it a shot.

First off, please report the results of your experimentation! This could be a handy tweak.
Second, there's an entire accessibility Settings menu. It's hidden by default (for no reason I can figure) on some phones. Hiding it is a registry setting, and some apps (like Advanced Config on http://touchxperience.com) will switch it for you. Something in there may help.
Third, double-tap just sooms in on the element that you tapped. If that element is pretty big already, it won't zoom very far. You can, at any time in IE, use two fingers ina pinching motion to fine-control the zoom level, or zoom in wherever you want to. This also works in the email reader view.

Any news about the sms and phone numbers in the contact list?

the idea changing the value of FontSize doesn't work!

[Q] Change device resolution? (not DPI)

Not sure if this is the correct forum, so please move it if need be
I am looking to change the resolution of a tablet, but so it is persitent (I am currently in a position to change the firmware, so maybe a build prop setting or init.rc?)
I can change the resolution using "am display-size widthxheight" but this does not persist through a reboot.
Is there a way to set it at firmware level?
I have tried various DPI settings, but I know it must be a resolution change, as I need to be able ot set it specifically to 1280x720.
Not sure what the original resolution is, but changing the DPI lower or higher does not change the fact I cannot view a 1280x720 image, at 100%, without scrolling.
Might it be the case I need to make a system app to run the "am display-size" command on boot?

its not recommended to change your resolution, i have bricked my galaxy tab before and was luckily able to recover it. what device do you have? hopefully its a first party like samsung otherwise Chinese tablets you shouldn't mess with them, the chip-set is not open source so its easy to brick.

[Tutorial] Increase Resolution and Quality of photos sent by WhatsApp (ROOT)

This is the tutorial:
0 - Download a file explorer and grant superuser permission (I personally use ES FILE EXPLORER).
1 - Locate this folder: /data/data/com.whatsapp/shared_prefs/
2 - Open the file "com.whatsapp_preferences.xml".
+ Mod image quality (jpg compression level ?)
Look for this line: <int name="image_quality" value="80" />
Change its value (80 by default) to whatever you want (a number between 1 to 99, you shouldn't use 0 or 100 I think).
RECOMMENDED VALUE: 90
Info: at 99 your photos won't have any compression (best quality), but the file size will be MUCH bigger (very close to the original size)
+ Mod image resolution
Look for this line: <int name="image_max_edge" value="1600" />
Change 1600 to the value you want, for example 3200 or 6400 (or bigger).
Info: I think this changes the maximum width allowed for an image. By default, if you want to send a 4K photo (for example) the sent image will be downsized to 1600px. Therefore if you want to send bigger photos change 1600 to 6400 or whatever.
++++
Results (try it by yourself too and tell me):
Here is a 3500x3500 photo, the original file: http://s1.postimg.org/o5rwefjm7/Screenshot_2015_09_16_16_36_20.png
And this is the sent image: http://s27.postimg.org/84yk2ooxv/Screenshot_2015_09_16_16_36_45.png
As you see it keeps the same resolution, you can also increase the quality to 99 to send photos with almost no compression, so the sent image and the original are almost the same, but I don't recommend that value because it takes longer to upload (if you have bad internet like me you won't want to increase the quality to 99), so you should try 90 (which I think is the best quality/compression level).

Good tutorial, thanks
Enviado con mi Note 2 Lollipop

I tried it a long time ago, and the preferences defined in the receiver's phone acts as a bottleneck. Most likely that this is deliberately done by the developers to reduce the effect of local file modifications.

its not working.. i can't change the value, it comes to the default value after using whatsapp. Please help me
. . .

Thanks.....Nice for tutorial.....

Nice tutorial.It really works
Sent from my Cyanogenmod10.1 Huawei Y210 0100

It does not work on my galaxy S6 MM

This is a nice tutorial. But will not work.
As the new version of whatsapp re-writes the file with original values on start.
So, to solve this, kill whatsapp. Now from any root file explorer, change the permission - remove the write privileges for all (440).
Then open whatsapp. Now the mod is applied only for that session of the app.
Also you might need to change the max image size. <int name="image_max_kbytes"value="8128"/> (I've put it as 8mb)
(PS Extra info-But you' think won't it make all the settings fixed and any setting change from within the app won't reflect. Don't worry whatsapp automatically changes the permission with write privileges (660)). Hence can't have the mod be permanent.
So Cheers.

thank you
