Currently it defaults to sorting by last name first. This screws up most of the listings in my phone book as I always had them sorted by first name first on all my other phones.
I tried in settings, there is no options So I am wondering is there a registry edit I could do to sort by first name first?
Thanks

Not sure if this will work on your device, but source code is available and the idea should be universal.

Hi,
everytime I make a ROM flash (very often) I have to do some reg hacks to get my unit syncing (due to our firewire at work).
Is there a quick and easy way I can make a cab do this work for me?
the entry is:
Reg Sub Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers\RNDIS]
Name of value to add: MTU
Type: DWORD
Data: 1514 (Value is in Decimal)
Reg Sub Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers\RNDIS]
Name of Value to add: MaxOutTransfer
Type: DWORD
Data: 1642 (Value is in Decimal)
hi, does anyone have a clue how to do this?
Hey guys,
I'm trying to create a batch script for deploying pda's and I need to disable the hardware buttons on a Pharos. Here's what i've found:
In a command line, you can use the command
Code:
REG DELETE \\HKLM\Software\microsoft\shell\keys\ /va /f
But i'm thinking this command deletes the LOCAL key on the computer, and I obviously need it to delete it on the PDA.
I've used this example:
Code:
REG DELETE KeyName [/v ValueName | /ve | /va] [/f]
KeyName [\\Machine\]FullKey
Machine Name of remote machine - omitting defaults to the current machine
Only HKLM and HKU are available on remote machines
FullKey ROOTKEY\SubKey
ROOTKEY [ HKLM | HKCU | HKCR | HKU | HKCC ]
SubKey The full name of a registry key under the selected ROOTKEY
ValueName The value name, under the selected Key, to delete
When omitted, all subkeys and values under the Key are deleted
/ve delete the value of empty value name <no name>
/va delete all values under this key
/f Forces the deletion without propmt
Examples:
REG DELETE HKLM\Software\MyCo\MyApp\Timeout
Deletes the registry key Timeout and its all subkeys and values
Anyone have a clue?
i would read up on doing it with morth scripts on the pda
I don't think that's an option, since I have 500+ devices to configure... I'll look into it, but i'm hoping someone could help me out with my first script.
/me = stupid.
I should've thought of this earlier: i can make a cabfile and then push it to the device with the batch script.
Problem solved.
Found this:
For the advanced user (involves registry modification) - but well worth doing:
How to set the start menu background image (note: you only have to do the registry modifications once
on your device - if you done them before you don't have to do this again - just copy the image over):
In a registry editor go to this key:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/:MSStart
Check if you have an entry called "BKBitmapFile". If you do not, create a new "String" value.
Name : BKBitmapFile
Value data: \Application Data\Home\{Image}
Add the following lines to the same key :MSStart
a Dword value with the name BKBitmapLogPixelsX and the data value 131 in decimal
a Dword value with the name BKBitmapLogPixelsY and the data value 131 in decimal
a Dword value with the name BKBitmapTransparent and the data value 16711935 in decimal
a Dword value with the name BKDefaultGradient and the data value 1 in decimal
a Dword value with the name BKFlags and the data value 26 in decimal
and finally a String value with the name BKUnselected and the value data COLOR_ALERTWINDOW
Copy {Image} to
\Application Data\Home\
Soft-reset your device.
(I take no responsability for these modifications - modify the registry at your own risk).

Hello, I need an excel formula to allow me to enter the specific name the search on it to provide a true or false result. I tried using the IF formula to say IF B2 = name, "Correct Name", "Incorrect Name".
