Locking your BA running Windows Mobile 5 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi everyone. Firstly, thanks for all the help - because of key members on this forum, my Orange M2000 runs WM5 great.
What does everybody do for locking your device against accidental key presses? I have a case that is less than perfect and I always wind up pushing buttons I don't intend to - and dialing people by mistake.
How do you avoid this? Certain settings? Other software?
Thanks!

if you look on the Wiki at WM 5 patches, there is a button lock on there which is bundled with loads of other apps.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_WM5_Patches_ChangeLog

Sorry, I can't see mention of a button locking app anywhere in the wiki reference you provided. Can you be more specific?
Thank you.

I think its the button fix.
After you run it you will find under settings - systems - button lock. Works fine for me.

it is here

hope this helps

Thanks all - does indeed work well.

Dear All
I keep looking & serching for a way to make Touch Flo working on our Himalaya.
I hv been tald by several freinds here that processer OMAP is the one 4 Touch Flo
But
I found in this thread for Atom Microprocessor: 32bit Intel XScale PXA272 @ 416MHz
It is working see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333513&page=3
and the customization from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325424
I tryed but the result is black screen
Is there is any explanation why we can not hv it working on Himalaya?
Some screen Captures
Regards
see here please: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1556253&postcount=33
" I found out why I got blackscreened.
I disabled SNApi and Certification Enrollment.
Works great now. PS: Totally Incompatible with HTC Home. Do NOT install HTC Home AFTER installing Touchflo, or the moment you attempt to use Home or access the Home themes, it will hang.
Oh well, I intended to uninstall HTC Home anyway. I just found out that having it on tends to prevent WM5torage from running correctly. "
I hope this may help you...
Test it!
Did someone test it??
How is the transition speed??
Hope this works!

Ok thanks a lot, I already had the TM but did not had a look in it, I found both services.
I'm going to free space on my device and test
Touchflo is taking near to 12Mb on my device!
Just installed it...It still doesn't work, black screen, nothing happens
So far the next best thing I found are:
ByKa's flash cube
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328010
with PocketCM and PocketCM keyboard
http://pocketcm.com/index.php
and I hope Oto One Touch Organiser will soon run on my device as well
http://www.adidap.com/projects/oto
Both ByKa and Quentin from PocketCM are working on image viewers with similar interfaces
Another program that fits this kind of interface quite nicely is Igo navigator. It starts slow on my Hima, but then locks on GPS real fast and creates a perfect log even in areas with no roads. It sometimes does create strange routes, but allows easy manual corrections. This only works good if you know the area.
Any more suggestions?

Yes, I found it too, been watching that thread from the beginning, just 5 days ago, and now already he launched a fully working alpha! Great work. Efrost rules.
Caution, it is still an alpha and does interfere with normal behaviour of other programs, like the ones I mentioned yesterday.

Yeah it didnt work wid me too..when i run it i sucessfully calibrate it..but after that i cant use my stylus on the screen only Dpad works..even the Start buton doesnt click...i guess its not designed to work with Himas YET !!
I can't imagine bingoing11 is joking/lying/pulling our legs/not knowing which device he has?
lolz good one maggy...i was wondering the samething
I had no problem to install it
Once installed, the calibration procedure launched, I just had to lauch it 2 times since the first time I didn't calibrate the screen correctly.
Once configured, I tapped on the scrollbar quickly and then play with my finger, and that's all!
This is just a habit to take, I confess that the scroll with finger manipulation is a little bit touchy to learn but it works correctly
are u sure u have a PH10B Device

TouchFLO 3D Theme Customizer

Now that we're seeing different colors and designs for the TouchFLO 3D Home screen today plug-in on different versions of the Touch Diamond, if anyone is planning on making a theme customizer that we can use to change these at will...
Please make it extensible enough so that other future and existing applications can be added and changed as well.

AFAIK, there are no ROMs for the branded devices available... When those become available, it'll be far easier to allow for skinning.
How about a project to adapt the remaining Windows Mobile "design look" into the Touchflo3D GUI? Of course tweaking performance at the same time to compensate for it as much as possible.

I was wondering whether to do that... These forums seem to be some of the cleanest (device wise) so keep up the moderating
If and when someone gets there hands on an operator branded device (or an operator ROM), I'll try and work out how the customization takes place...
Agreed.
I would love it if there was something extensible like Schap's Advanced Config, where anyone could customize an XML file or something and have the application load Skin/Theme options (like HTC Home Customizer does) for other applications (including TouchFLO 3D).
So like a hybrid between HTC Home Customizer which will load the proper image files/etc. to the proper places based on what you choose... and the Advanced Config program where you can add custom options by editing an XML file.
Doesn't that sound like a great tool for changing theme/skins for all of these applications?
I would LOVE to reorder the TouchFLO 3D Tabs at least!!!
I would love to change the color of my TF3D theme from o2 but keeping my german version!
When I recieve my XDA I can provide you with the included ROM but the delivery date is delayed.
I'm getting a T-Mob compact IV, dumping the ROM (assuming it's not already done by someone else by then) is near the top of my to-do list.
Anyone who's seen T-Mob's version of TF3D will understand my wish help the progress of a theme customiser!!!
2+ more weeks to go... :-(
Does it all mean that maybe one day it will be possible to add some other items to the TF3D??
I am desperately looking for an application like PocketZenPhone to switch the profiles with one touch!!! I didn't start using my diamond yet only because of this!!! I have to change profiles very often (bluetooth on/off, vibrating with sound and without sound, etc...) and it is really impossible everytime to enter menus!!!
Can someone help me.... please!?!

Try AEBPlus - it maps your hard ware buttons, I have just one set to turn on wi-fi, and the same button on double pressing to turn on Bluetooth, turn off the same way....

It would be better to have 4 or 5 icons like in PZP with different profiles, but also this can help.
Are you sure it works with WM6.1?? Because it is not in the list of compatible devices.

Hi,
I did get an O2 ignito on Tuesday.
I ordered it on Saturday and PMed two of the better known cooks if they wanted a dump (sorry and no names) but not had a reply. They are obviuosly busy.
I did point out though that I had not dumped before and did not have anywhere to upload it to. I did find some threads to do it and it seemed complex.
I have now put on a rom from this forum and am very happy with it. Will donate.
The o2 rom was 1.92.2xx.

OMG, how can you even post this??? 2 weeks Ban coming your way!
Got there before you
all I want to do is change the color of the text on the various tabs. the home screen/theme is perfect but the text is black on a black background. but the text is white on the home screen...paitently waiting.

Which tweak App to use ?

OK.
Been frustrated as hell with the performance of my Diamond, but I REALLY REALLY want it to behave fluidly and as HTC market to us all... I don't want to hand it back and go for an N82 (although I love the camera on this). I WANT to keep using my Diamond as I do believe in it... even after my little rant in the "is your Diamond perfect" thread ;-)
So... and I hope this question will help others too.
I need to know - If I install Diamond TF3D Config and AC 2.1 with Boinger66's mods, and the latest on the block, Diamond Teak all on the same device.
And I asking for trouble ?
Or will common settings (registry changes) to improve performance, enhance power management etc across all these brilliant applications conflict with one another ? Or will they play nice and just change the same registry settings ?
cheers.
Or... is there one that will be the best ? I am not a WM expert and all this is a tad intimidating
Are the Advised settings marked in AC 2.1 with Boinger66's ones that the dev advises, the community has advised or Microsoft advise ?
i.e Do we happily set everything that we want to change to advised and following a soft reset, enjoy Diamond bliss ???
Please... I know I could read countless pages of threads but a clear concise answer to the above would help me and many others out along the way.
cheers
They should work all together...
My app is just reading and writing to the registry and not saving the selected tweaks anywhere else, so it makes no trouble with other tweaking tools, if they do it the same way.
It works together on my original Dutch rom...
At the moment I am using the Diamond TF3D config 0.6 tool from sushilange..
Here i can fill my own tweak list.. i like to take control
@sushi... thanks for that.
@ben®nie... cool. Will add AC2.1 and B66's tweaks back to my recently hard reset Diamond.
Currently with just sushi's app... all seems to be flowing along nicely
Oh... and anyone know the answer to the 'advised' setting question ? Power management ones seem most app with the small battery we all have ;-)

Fixed Keyboard/Touch screen and more ATT Tilt

*Second post is a quick tutorial of all the steps I did*
For the past year+ I lots of problems with my tilt. Terrible keyboard response problems, like the keyboard only working 25% of the time. The touch screen being unresponsive or slow 50% of the time. I've hated my phone. Thought it was just a piece of junk. I soft reset so much I thought the reset button was going to fail.
I tried nearly every new ROM that came out, each time after being dissapointed because my problems remained, then I'd move on to the disable xt9 cab, tilt keyboard fix cab, keyboard speed up cab (which I'm still not sure if works, since I now have my initial keyboard delay set at 0 and I don't know if I see a difference), etc. Tried the touch sensitivity registry edit, installed the (I think) x1 touch sensitivity cab. But nothing seemed to change a thing.
I had realized that most of my issues were software related because sometimes things would work fine (for a couple minutes). I've tried the press the hell out of the keyboard buttons fix that was supposed to regain contact between the key, and the sensor for the keyboard, and pretty much everything out there.
Then I recently installed the HTC ROM for the Tilt, and voila, I have a new phone, works nearly flawlessly.
Since then, I have installed Manila 2d (start with update 20, install everything included, then install the latest version) youtube/opera/google maps/audio manager/pictures etc. all work perfectly, installed the Manila2D v20 N2A patch which fixed the weather tab to show my home town, M2DC and applied a new skin, Total Commander (to move the edited weathercities file), Wstask (awesome), ATT Navigator, Windows Live (great for syncing contacts), and it works perfectly. It's fast. I can use my phone now without the struggle, and am happier than I've been in a long time.
I haven't heard anyone suggesting this so I thought I'd let everyone know. This is the phone I always wanted from my Tilt. I have to assume that the minor hardware differences between versions creates a problem with non-native ROM's, and if you are having problems I recommend trying a factory ROM made for your device, you may be pleasantly surprised.
Dustin
*edit* As I'm sure most know, there are hardware issues with the keyboard for many, this will obviously not fix those issues. However, I was able to fix the massive software issues I've had which also effected the keyboard. I still have a testy Y key, but it's not a huge issue when compared to what it was like before. My phone works great.
Correct Forum?
Flashed to the HTC ROM for the AT&T Tilt, download here:

Soft reset immediately after screen alignment, and setup to avoid bloatware.

I've been having the same issues with my tilt as well. EXTREMELY annoying. I love the tilt, but hate that it constantly lags.
Do you have a link to the ROM from HTC?
The last ROM from HTC for the tilt gave me problems
Yes please post the link as i am also having this problem.
Thanks
Link inside!
Here y'all go. It's important to note that this is ROM build 1.62.502.0 and will change your radio to 1.27.14.09. Further info can be found HERE
HTC AT&T Tilt ROM
Different link to the Rom
Here is the link for the page HTC posted the Tilt ROM download if you would like to read first before downloading:
http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=2&dl_id=94
Hope this helps you guys. For me it was night and day. Let me know if this helps you guys.
Also, I wonder if there are any ROM cooks out there who are interested in cooking ROM's based on the Tilt ROM. That would be sweeet!!!
Dustin
*edit* I'm not sure about the ROM tmnt.mikey posted, but the link I've posted does not change the radio to that version, I flashed and have radio version 1.65.21.18. I'm not sure what radio I was using pre-flash (oops).
does this work with kaiser as well?
because at&t does not have the front camera...
so if i flash to this rom, will it render my front camera unusable?
not that it's really that important, i'd rather have my keyboard functioning well again.
other than that, is there any complication if i run this on my kaiser?
because in the HTC page, it's said... only for at&t tilt...
Kaiser ROM
I have no way to know if this ROM will work for the Kaiser, someone would have to try it out and let us know. I can't imagine it would brick the phone, but the keyboard layout is different, and the front camera thing. However, you might look for the latest Kaiser ROM from HTC then apply all the cabs you want and see if that works for you. I installed the ATT ROM, then did a soft reset before the apps were loaded to save space and clutter, then installed just the cabs I prefer.
It's been almost a week now, and it is still working perfectly. I've installed almost 20 different cabs, it is running faster, and more stable than it ever has. I love my phone now. The difference is stunning. I haven't had any issues thus far, and I've never experienced that before. I hit a button and it works, I touch the screen it works. I'm going off about it so much because I want everyone to know this phone is not a lost cause. I'm still a little in shock how well it works. I had written it off, and thought between HTC, and Microsoft that this phone was just going to remain a glitchy pain in the rear. My phone was so difficult to use that I almost stopped texting all together. I was practically marking off each day on the calendar waiting for the remaining year of my contract to run out.

i actually followed the link from dustintm...
but the download was not for my area (i'm in singapore)
and you can't download it anyways...
you need to key in your serial number...
and it has to match the region...
so if that really fixed the keyboard problem...
congrats to those guys in the same region as dustintm...
as for why it happened, i also don't know...
i read in some other thread that it's unlikely if it's dust or the rubber...
i also think it has to do with the ROM, since some days my 'a' keys works fine...
Asian TyTN II ROM
Hey Jonathan,
Here is the link to the HTC Asia download page for the TyTN II:
http://www.htc.com/au/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=13&act=sd&cat=all
Just so everyone knows, this ROM change I am talking about does not fix hardware related issues. I still have a testy "y" key, it works most of the time, but I do have to press it harder at times.
Prior to my find, I was having massive keyboard problems, sluggishness, having to press each key multiple times, etc. I was also having similar problems with the touch screen too.
This will not fix a hardware issue (obviously?). But I've found the new factory ROM has made my phone operate almost without flaw... for the first time. Responsive, stable and consistent. I can deal with the "y", I couldn't deal the snetacnes loking lik tihs (sentances looking like this (all the time)), and all the other problems/lock ups, etc.
Dustin
Keyboard problems sound like a hardware issue. You should try to find a local cellphone store that does repairs.
There is one in L.A. that can fix this for under $50.
Keyboard Problems
I found that I was experiencing hardware (keyboard), AND software related issues (keyboard, touch screen, sluggishness, and lock-ups). After installing this ROM all software issues have disappeared. I am very certain of this. One example is that occasionally the keyboard would work almost flawlessly (with the exception of the y key) and other times it was a complete struggle, multiple keypresses to register once, delay, etc. That made it clear to me that I was having software related issues.
I imagine it could have been ROM issues, or software related conflicts, but either way, I have solved my problems. I flashed to the latest HTC ATT Tilt ROM, and the following programs/cabs:

Also, did you get rid of the AT&T bloatware on yours as well? On a quest for the perfect ROM myself, so I will keep watching the thread for more info.
Would like to see those links as well.
If you want to leave out the ATT bloat ware, after you go through the screen align, do a reset. It will fail to run the script for the **** add ons and then you have basically a virgin rom.

Thanks so much, Dustin!!! I think I will be loading the AT&T 6.1 ROM again, following your fixes, and praying that my 2-PC ActiveSync problem somehow gets resolved along the way, too. (We need a "crossing fingers" smilie! HA!)

Vlingo Released for Windows Mobile (but not Raph)

Vlingo, the awesome speach to text program has released a beta for Windows Mobile.
Unforunately, the Raphael isn't supported yet.
When I try to install the cab, it quits and says my phone isn't supported yet. I wonder if it doesn't support our devices because of a technical limitation, or they just haven't tested yet. Can we modify the cab so it doesn't quit on the Raphael?

I am testing it now and i think the problem is assigning it a hardware key since htc thought it would be wise not let anyone assign the hardware keys to what they wanted and as you go through the setup it asks you so pick a hardware key to launch the app from so unless you have a modded keypad.dll file you might have a hard time with this app.

I set what you mean. It's asking me to map button "???", but only button "Send Key(hold)" appears in the buttons window.
Loaded it up and mapped it to the talk (hold) button, then later changed it to the PTT button. It works, but it doesn't seem to like 6.5 much. It crashes when trying to send an email and if I try to say "email or text john smith" but if I say email or text and no name it brings up the window, but eventually crashes again. The errors are consistent with other programs that don't like 6.5. Otherwise it looks like some good competition for TellMe that should be released soon. I will keep toying with it.
The search seems to work well, although the program again is not finger friendly in 6.5.
Anyone have experience with VLingo and 6.1 or 6.0?
Are you using a patched keyboard driver? Or a ROM with a patched driver?

I'm using a rom w/patched keyboard driver.
I use Da_G's kitchen to cook my roms. He has the patched keyboard and you can assign what you want. But vlingo is buggy w/6.5

How did you get past the "Vlingo is not currently supported on this device"?

Use the patched cab posted in this thread.

I used the cab from the 2nd post (fixed one) and it works with "HTC Fuze" and during setup, it force's you to map to the talk (hold) button, which you can change afterwards.
HTC Fuze
Hi - this is some great and clever work. We're glad to see users finding a way on their own devices. A few points to clear things up for you guys:
You are correct we don't support WM 6.5 on any devices.
The reason you can install on the fuze is because we did some internal testing and we allow the HTC Fuze model to make it through the install/setup. As you can see the graphics aren't fully there for this device compared to the other devices. As you mentioned the inability for average users to select a suitable key to map vlingo too on the HTC Fuze lead us to dropping official support on the device. For folks as eager as you guys - loves it - the normal touch vlingo.cab should install on the HTC Fuze running on WM 6.1. Please note that since this is a beta you will run into some glitches and since this device was not officially supported it may have more glitches than we'd like.
Please let us know if you have any additional feedback or run problems via our support channel - www.vlingo.com/support.jsp (the last question in the FAQ has a link to our support form).
Thanks for helping us with our beta testing.

Glad to see Vlingo here in the forums! I enjoy torturing my device daily, and look forward to 6.5 support in the future. As for the keyboard button remap, I think that was addressed in Rom update about a week ago from HTC, so this may solve the issues for the Fuze owners. If not, XDA users have apps to fix it. I also ran vlingo on the iphone and it's great. Keep up the active support and research.

I set what you mean. It's asking me to map button "???", but only button "Send Key(hold)" appears in the buttons window.

I can map it to the send button, but it just comes up with the ???? button. Anyone get past this? I am on a stock ROM. Ideas?

This is exactly where I'm stuck. I'm waiting for the modded cdma keyboard driver to get past this. I don't believe there's any other way.

Anyone? Anyone with touchpro (sprint) been able to do this?
I get an error when I try to run the vlingo.exe. So I removed it from my phone. However, I can't seem to delete the shortcut from my start menu?
with file explorer, look in your program files and delete vlingo folder also go to windows folder and delete it from there...
What I don't understand is if there is a problem with mapping a button on Vlingo why didn't they just copy the iphone's UI so we could just push it on our touchscreen instead of mapping it if that was the case then iphone shouldn't be supported either.

Any way you can post a CAB of the patched keyboard?
I tried it on NRG's 3.0 series and it would let me map (prolly because he uses Da_G's kitchen) but it wouldn't let me send text/email or initiate call. It was pretty much broken.
So I grabbed the only 6.1 rom that is still somewhat being updated: Elite RC4. However it must not have the patched keyboard, because I can't get past the intitial setup of vlingo, as it won't let me assign a command to the "???" button.
I really want to get this working! I think it'd be a lot quicker sending texts since the spacebar on my keyboard only works 10% of the time... heh
This seems to be the most active thread about vlingo...I have an htc herald and am using the fixed cab from this thread. It seems the key to the button setup is to use the number 1 button specified on your device. I struggled with this for some time. although i have vlingo activated through my buttons, none of the capabilities are working. after it tells me to speak and it starts thinking it comes back with two different errors. both errors are telling me it can't find the server and to check my data connection.
