I like the VolumeOverlay cause it's prettier, it doesn't interupt your current task and u can set 15 steps instead of only 5. Here's an instruction how to enable it.
Easy way with registry:
In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\ create a key with any name and in there create a string value with the name: ClassName and the value is the name of the window class (I use BSB->rotation settings to find that out).
That works quite fine with the most application and especially for standby if u use the windows lockscreen u only have to set the value of the string value to ConfettiLockScreen and you dont have to reboot. (It only works if u play some kind of sound otherwise u dont see anything ).
In some applications it's more useful to have a tilted VolumeOverlay although the portrait version is quite nice and sufficient.
The harder way:
In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass\ set a key with any name and a string value with the name: ClassName and the value is again the window class name. In addition u need to set in HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI\ a key with the name of the window class and and in there a string value with the name: Enable2ndOverlay with the value: 2.
Example: LockScreen/Standby
1. I look at the window class name with BSB->rotation->add application->shake in lockscreen. Result: ConfettiLockScreen
2. Create a key in HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\ with the name Lockscreen (or any name)
3. In HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\Lockscreen\ I create a string value: ClassName->ConfettiLockScreen
I hope I could help you and I hope it will be implemented in the BSB tweaks in the future. I would advise to combine all this settings (P2Z, rotation and VolumeOverlay) cause it's easier to add an application once and than tick what u want to have.
Hi there
This seems to be exactly what i need but fail at implementing it.
I am trying to enable this for CorePlayer.
The window clasname seems to be 'wCorePlayer'
I created HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\3rdPartyAPClass\CorePlayer\
In there i create a string value with the name (REG_SZ?) ClassName and the string value wCorePlayer
It's the first time I edit the registry. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
A
Okay it works now. With CorePlayer you have to go the 'hard way'.
Thanks!
A
ill add this when i have some free time
Works well here, tested it with the RemoteDesktop (Portrait+Landscape).
But is there an easier way to enable it for all programs?
It's a little bit annoying creating a key for every programm.
thx
Thanks a lot, it's really a great thing !!
i've already add this like you to the lockscreen and it works well
If there are a solution to add this to all applications, i'm in !!
Would be nice if this could be implemented into BSB?!

VolumeOverlay is not showed properly
I don't know why but VolumeOverlay is not showed properly.... it's showed only a black line... don't appear nothing more when I click in Volume buttoms..
May be is because I have installed MaxManila??? or because I have installed a taskbar icons (Brians Taskbar_6.5)???
Any one more with same problem??? or some one know how to fix it???
thanks in advance.

I resolved uninstalling brians taskbar icons, they was not compatible with the manila version of 1.61 rom.
Removed the icons and the volume overlay come back to work.
Is there an easy way to change the steps for the volume? Maybe somewhere a value in the reg?

Dude can you post how what exactly you did with the registry re: CorePlayer? I'm not so sure how to do it even after reading first post. Thanks!
are there any custom color taskbars present that doesn't cripple the volume overlay?
Could some one make this option in a cab? For people not so geekish?

Have anyone tried adding more icons to the HTCHomeplug today plug-in? Anything other than "Power", "Screen Rotate", "Backlight" & "Comm Mgr"?

Somebody please provide a DLL file having multiple icons. We need two sizes per icon (48x48x24bit & 24x24x8bit). More set of icons much better so that we can add more programs.

Great to hear that.
BTW, by changing the values "3" & "2" in sequence, you could change the sequence of the icons accordingly. I am sure you know that, huh?
The secret is that the POWER is "0" in sequence followed by the "ROTATE" as "1" and the rest follows upto I guess 7 icons as some guy mentioned somewhere in this forum...

Hi Cyber-Mate,
Already tried that, doesn't work here.
It makes the commmanager dissapear. Would love to have the screenrotate pictogram more to the right side of HTCHome. Also I'm thinking about a softreset button, that would be really cool!

Can you guys post the screenrotate.exe file that you're using? The one I have on my wizard works, but for some reason the icon isn't showing up, neither is the powericon. I can get the rest of the icons that I set the resource path to work with no problem, but those 2 entries that I suppose are taken automatically from the files aren't working for me.
huh
using the settings above i can add apps to and change the arranement of the HTC homeplug.... the only thing that doesn`t change are the icons.
It always looks the same, the 3 icons in the same order, tapping the blank space after the comm manager icon even opens the brightness setting.

Well, definitely there's something wrong/missing!
It could either be ResPath or "LaunchApPath" lines. Revise your registry and follow the text line I referred to in my previous reply.
However, If you are tapping and getting the program running, that means the "iconindex" line is wrong. (i.e. the icon number such as 101)!
Best of luck...
errmmmmm

"ResPath"="\Windows\htcicon.dll"

The app works........so i`m guessing the "launchappath" line is correct.
I`m not sure what the "respath" line actually does, but i typed it in as above.
Same with the "iconindex".
All i`m not getting is the icon for the backlight. i get the app.
Is there another setting somewhere i should be including/adjusting...
in fact, if i change the folder numbers the app will actually move position, but the look of the thing doesn`t change at all.

Get a resource editor and open up htcicon.dll and check to see which are the correct addresses for the icons, or try settings the ResPath to \\windows\\backlight.exe" and the IconIndex to "0"
Hope that helps.
Hi,
I'm currently using your latest rom, and its great in terms of stability and overall features it contains. I had a small request which i thought i'd post, and decided to make a separate thread so that ppl can drop all their requests too, so here goes!
And now for my request -
It would be great if you could add PQz II into the default rom. Its a small app to enable control/alt key combos with a lot of other features for phone shortcuts, button shortcuts etc. Its freeware too! You can find it at www.nicque.com/pqz
if you could make the following customizations so that pqz starts this way by default, thats an added bonus -
1. Has the path to the "icon" bitmap (by default, its just a white blotch until you specify an icon in the default installation. the icon comes within the package though)
2. Set default keys to the SYM key for control and alt.
3. Make PQz start at windows bootup by default by adding a link in the registry
Cheers and I appreciate the great work!
San

with all do respect, PQz suck.
it really messes up the keyboard control for other programs, such as games for example...
if you really need it, install it. it only takes a couple of seconds and a couple of lousy KBs, if i remember correctly.
Rom devs can't include apps everytime users have a spacial request. That's what kitchens are for...

Normally, we set the "SYM" key for both Control & alt. This way, you press sym once, its control (shows on the icon, once set!), press it again it becomes alt. Its soooooo useful, i cant tell you.....you must try it!
i use it extensively, to do control+c, cntrl+v, blah!
The icon should be on top, so that it shows what you've pressed (control or alt).
The cooler part is the other sub-modules it has such as phone shortcuts, app shortcuts, system shortcuts etc. For example, i can set shortcuts such as alt+Alphabet for speed dials for all my contacts. No matter what application you're currently using, just hit Alt+S to dial a contact for instance, or even fire an application!
I also use, Alt+X to close current app, alt+0 to close all apps....really useful!
Try it out for a while, you cant live without it!
Cheers!

Can you add these files to Windows\ directory?
If you could add these to \Windows directory, it would be great! It changes the basic "Open/select file" dialog to browse through folders in a standard windows way rather than scanning through all folders and showing it as one single list!
It overrides this dialog at all places. For instance, when you try and add an attachment to your email, it shows standard folders for you to navigate and pick the right file, rather than making one giant list of all files on all folders!
San
EDIT: There's a small bug in wm6, the softkey labels are not shown though (not a big deal as long as you know what they are!) . The left softkey is "Up" one folder, and right softkey is for "Menu" when the open file dialog is active. Make sure you activate it under Settings->System->FileDialog and check the option in there!

how about the ability to call the last dialled number? can that be added? and maybe not including the latest task manager 2.0 as that has problems with the closing of apps.... maybe the earlier version 1.5?
PQZ
Well... I tested a bit.
But it does screw up other functionings.
Also the today icon I don't like, I only see a white square in top bar
Did you try HandyMenu or AEButton, they have same function's but much easier. For copy\paste I use Pnotepad.
Sorry...

this tweak will reduce the amount of pressure it takes to use the cube gestures
1 open reg editing software
2 navigate to HKEY_LOCAL MACHINE\software\OEM\TFLOSettings
3. in HKEY_LOCAL MACHINE\software\OEM\TFLOSettings find DWORD fingerpressure...
4. enter in to edit mode then either double or quadruple your oem setting which is 3760
5. !!!!!!!!!*******DO NOT decrease the OEM value only increase IT WILL ACTUALLY TAKE MORE PRESSURE********!!!!!!!!
6. soft reset then enjoy reduced pressure gestures!!
...............................................................................................................
also figure out this could lessen normal wear and tear(scratching of protectors/PDA screens) since lesser pressure is applied to Tap the screen
here's what i did..
thru the PHM registry editor(or any PPC registry editor)
go to..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\TouchPanel
then find DWORD PressureThreshold'
Change the value of PressureThreshold.(INCREASE value ONLY!!!)
i tried doubling the default value. until i have reached my desired setting.
now,its like tapping soflty without having a feeling that i have screen protector. Also less stress on the stylus and screen and faster tapping.
WARNING: Only INCREASE THE VALUE BUT NEVER THE DECREASE THE DEFAULT VALUE.
Lowering the value of Pressure Threshold means you need to apply more pressure in tapping than you normally do.
wow!! tks for the info. i've change the settings by jz double up frm OEM setting. It works & i'm so enjoying wif very soft tapping on the screen now
there are more reg hacks im working on like im speeding up the movement of the cube and other things like speaker phone volume ill be posting all of them here i try them first and make sure they work before telling them to everyone

Very nice tweak! I always thought I had to apply to much pressure to the screen even before I was using the screenprotector.
Thanks for this!
Edit: it is also much nicer to work with the PCM keyboard now! Typing goes smoother.
Holy ****, this is great! It's much easier now to write on the screen with a touchpad.
Thanxxxx main!!
So what you people use for the value under PressureTreshold for TouchPanel?
I doubled them both
Great Tweaks!!!!!
hey man these are great tweaks. I jus added these tweaks to the Touch Wiki, keep em' coming man
and yeah as some members suggested it is:

can u verify this bereda, so as to reduce the posts which doubts the location of the registry key

Are you talking about HKEY_LOCAL MACHINE\software\OEM\TFLOSettings\fingerpressure or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\TouchPanel\pressurethreshold. My first value was 3681 instead of 3761 and my second one was 9350. I just doubled them both.

Like I said, I doubled that one anyway. There is nothing being said about a default value for that one in the first post. I think doubling that variable is why pressing keys on my PCM keyboard and the overall "touchscreen experience" is going better.
Its wierd.. I change the first one but the second tells me access denied.. even restarted the phone and tried connecting again.. I can change the first one.. but I can't change the one inside the TouchPanel directory..
Im using Mobile Registry Editor.. its pretty simple.. can't even search in it so I want to try something else.. Im going to search around for one but if someone wants to let me know what they prefer that would be awesome..

hey guys sorry for the delay the you are correct this is where the registery is located as listed above!!!!
my settings are actually quadrupled but its amazing im actually working on speeding up the cubes spins andhow fast it reacts!!!
my touchpanel threshold is at 38372
and my touchflo is at 15040
its great for me
For the TouchFlo, I found that it did have an effect.. however, I tried adjusting the PressureThreshold and didn't notice much difference...
Thanks for the tweak!

Same here. "access denied".
Any way to go around this, to change the pressurethreshold value?
When in a music/video application and you press the volume button, you are greeted with a smaller much prettier version of a volume control, that also increases/decreases less per volume button press.
Is it possible to make this control work all the time?
i like that pop-up!
Related to the above; has any1 found out wtf happens between it beeing volume control and it beeing prev/next song? it seems to randomly happen, and i keep having to 'reboot' my hd2 to get normal volume in the music tab again, way annoying.
Before some1 asks me what cabs i installed (since the above happens after some installs, at least thats what i read on these forums) i experienced it maybe 5 minutes after unboxing my new phone, so before i modified anything.
Any help/idea/pointing-to-topic appreciated
I used to have that problem, not had it in 1.61 though
I have 1.43, dunno how to change roms, and kinda 'playing on safe' since i had to pay 'way to much' (€250+) for this phone to break it already
Do feel free to point me to rom topics though cant hurt to look, but id most like to just have some installer exe from htc, so i can blame them if it breaks hehe

Sounds like they fixed it! Let's hope that is the case!
lol, I was playing it safe as well. Then just though ah feck it.
Iv just had a look in the registry, I can see which bit makes it pop up in certain applications. So I think i know how I could make it work in other applications of your choice, but I dont know about everwhere.
I search for that too and found a registry entry too that seems to activate that in other application but it doesnt work.
Its possible to add them manually.
HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass there add a key with any name and in this key u create a string value "ClassName" with the correct class name as value (I find them with BsB Tweaks).
HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI there add a key with the class name and in there a string value with the name Enable2ndOverlay and the value 1.
e.g. Resco Explorer:
"HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass\XYZ\ClassName" with the value "RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS"
and
"HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI\RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS\Enable2ndOverlay" with the value "1"
Yes but no landscape support for this function..(only on tab music and some video app that rely on the class-->FullScreenPlayer)..any solution?
Works perfect for me, but maybe if u set the Enable2ndOverlay to 2 instead of 1 it will work, cause the AlbumPlayer also use the 2.
But I really dunno how to set the VolumeOverlay in the ConfettiLockScreen (the ClassName of the LockScreen). An alternative would be to set the volume steps to 1/15 like in the overlay.
Any progress on this front? =) I would love to use the volume as it uses in music tab all over my phone!

add the desired player to rotation with bsb tweaks 1.6 and when tilted the volume overlay is tilted as whell.
(Updated with a version that shows a little horizontal line on the taskbar. One can now easily move the "activation area". See attached image titled "v2".
This will work on all WM versions:
Note for WM 6.5.x users: the activation area can not be placed on the clock!
Note for WM 6.5 users: setting the offset of the first setting on the option/view tab to 393 will place the horizontal line above the battery)
Note: after installation you have to start Quickmenu manually (/Program Files/QMenu/Quickmenu.exe). Another option is to do a softreset (Quickmenu is set up to start automatically after a softreset.

For users familiar with Nanlings Quickmenu (QM):
I've substituted the icons in quickmenu with transparant icons so you can place the "Q button" on the taskbar where ever you like. I've made a cab installation file that will also modify the registry entry for quickmenu in such a way that
a) the transparant Q-button is placed exactly on the battery icon of the WM 6.5.3 taskbar (setted the offset of the Q pic to 371). Very nice for one-handed operation with your right hand.
b) the running tasks are placed by default in the root of the QM-menu. This transforms QM basically in a sophisticated taskmanager. I like that more.
I thought is was wortwhile to share these modifications. Just check it out, maybe you like it.
For users not familiar with Quickmenu I like to refer to this thread There you can grab the unmodified program that will work on all WM version (including WM 6.5.3 and 6.5.5)
And...
Instructions about how you can make this work on a rom with a different language can be found here. (Problem is that when you run the program on a rom with a different language code you then 0409, which is the code for WWE-roms, you get unreadable characters)
finally! can't express how thankfull I am!
Really great work! 10x appelflap! How is battery drain with it?

Don't know yet.
Works great on artemis-FR (just need to rename mui in programfiles and we have it in english)
BTW, is there more mui with Quickmenu to have it in our own language ?
Thanks a lot
thanks for the adjustments have not tried them yet but will. question though:
I've been using QM since I saw it in one of nrg28 ROMs. the version I downloaded (no clue where from) behaves differently:
- no action if I tap the battery button, other than notification bar showing
- QM is activated by pressing left-top on taskbar (where previous Start was, now typically black area)
- and, and this is the best part imho, it is activated by a short press on the Windows HW button no need to reprogram long press of Send or End button. brilliant!
to be honest, and definitely not want deminish your hard work, these are 3 pretty nice advantages. or am I missing something?
I don't use the Q icon (default disabled) because I couldn't see the point since the Start button/text disapeared. Battery drain is not noticable.
because of default short press on Windows hardware button feature, it is perfect for task SWITCHING. task manager is of course also directly accessible.
no complaints, great find and great mod.
Really coooool man thanx a lot

You're right, without any modifications it is as beautiful as it is !
The only thing I did was to modify it for one-handed operation. I discoverd that almost everything I do is with the right tumb while holding my device in my hand. Because of this everything what is on left side of the screen is almost out of reach. (even the bottom startbutton. I have small hands, you see). That's why I created an activation field on the battery-meter by using a transparant Q-icon. Transparant, so you see the battery-icon.
Try it, you love it.

According to this forum-member, who introduced me to this great app btw, you can change it to you language by just changing the code of mui files to the desired language code.
any working QuickMenu modification for WM 6.5.0 out there?
thx
@appelflap
Great work!

Yes, someone has made a finger-friendly setup for the HD2 along with some instructions of how to change the language. Look for it here
But you can try this version as well. It should give you an "activation field" somewhere around the battery icon. (don't know exactly where, but you can play with it, see first post). Very nice for one-handed operation.
by changing the mui files you wont change the language interface itself, simply only making it usable in non-wwe roms (all text will turn out as squares if you dont do this)

Ai, my fault. Thanks for correcting me.
For those who want to get it working in their own language: you can edit
Code:
Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.0409.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.0409.mui
with the tools from this thread.
(don't forget to change the language code afterwards)
Maybe it's a good idea to share these translated mui files. Post them in this thread and I will point to them in the first post.

Try changing the code of these files:
Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.0409.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.0409.mui
to
Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.040C.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.040C.mui
(040C is the code for french .... i think
Does it work?
Thks
It's work fine !!! (in english now lol)

You were right: tried it, LOVE it
TIP1: to make QuickMenu window pop-up by a single press of the Windows key (the part I think is great to use it as a Task switcher): open QuickMenu window / select Quickmenu / select Option... / select 4th checkbox Register win key of device
TIP2: if you, like me, prefer to activate Quickmenu from the left side of the screen (I have a hard time hitting the battery icon ): open QuickMenu window / select Quickmenu / select Option... / select second TAB on the bottom called View / deselect 1st checkbox open QuickMenu / (you can of course also change the offset value to something you like. default is 192, but then you get an invisible icon in the middle of the taskbar - also kind of hard to find )
tnx to Appelflap for a great mod!
i just made a shortcut, add a nice icon and add it to the first row of program shortcuts. no need to sharpen my finger, no useless complications with the top icons... and it works in all ROMs.! Simple! so, this not only for the "bottom buttons" ROMs
see pic
Great program
thanks bro
