T-Mobile 2.26 ROM Customizations - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Since Xelencin is leaving us, I'm starting a thread to figure out what the T-Mobile customizations do, so that we can figure out which ones we would like to have on our devices. Then, by extracting the extended_rom with Total Commander, one can just install the desired ones and not others. This is really the cleanest way.
Here is the complete list:
AutoRun.exe (104KB) Program to automatically install
Config.txt (2KB) List of contents of extended_rom, probably part of autorun.exe
cusTSK.exe (6KB) Installs T-Mobile Theme (\Windows\T-Mobile.tsk) This can probably be used to install any theme.

PP_ExtVersion.CAB (2KB) WAP provisioning registry change, to 2.26.10.105
PP_GPRSandEGDE_DTMF.CAB (71KB) Fix for DTMF tone dialing problem?, sets EnableDTMFSupport and different edge, GPRS icons
PP_Revceive_beams_Uncheck.sa.CAB (50KB) ?

UXC_WWE_20051020.cab (1219KB) Has ringers and things for phone, my-email, and help file (?)
wwsetup-tmobile.cab (265KB) winwap (WAP connection)
Here are the Xelencin files for comparison (he gave them more mnemonic names):
Certification_Disable.cab (71KB) - Disables certification requirement for cab installers.
Missing Shortcuts.cab (95KB) - Adds MMS Inbox, Voice Tag control panel, Voice Dialing startup shortcut, ClearVue PDF shortcut, MIDlet Manager shortcut, Voice Speed Dial shortcut.

NITZ - Network time enable.
P_EDGE - does NOT enable EDGE Icon. It puts the second icon up above the bars instead of the antenna. You still need to regedit if you want the "E" differentiation.

Thanks
I'll try to keep the first post up-to-date for one-stop shopping.

So which ones did you pick. I am so not patient (waiting on summiter or xelin).
thanks

Please and also i did the same thing you did with the spb back up
but every time i ran it. The connection manager instead of displaying 8 icons it kept displaying seven (it did not have the new ir thingy)

Still using Xelencin's
I'm still using Xelencin's extended rom (with 2.26), nothing from the 2.26; I'm waiting to figure out what all these things are before trying to construct a superior set of customizations to his.

If you have Winrar, you can open each can and see if there's a _setup.xml file. If so, use the built-in viewer to see what they do. Most of them are commented but some you can just look at the file and get an idea of what it installs or what settings it adds/sets.

Well it looks like prestonmcafee already has them pretty much documented. The only thing I think is wrong is the cusTSK.exe. I think that's just an app to launch tasks. If you look at the config.txt, it runs T-Mobile.tsk. I'm not sure what this is and I'm not ready to try it yet
As far as the unknown ones go, there's no .xml file to view so it's basically a crap shoot as to what they do. Too bad they don't name these cabs things that actually make sense :roll:
For those interested, I've pulled files from both the T-Mobile and Summiter's Extended ROMs to get what I need at the bare minimum. Here's the file and a description of the cabs. These are the only cabs I've loaded from the extended ROMs so far and I'm quite happy with them.
P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab <-- Cingular's network/GPRS settings
P_DefaultHtm_Favorite_Feb13_Wizard.CAB <-- Cingular's favorites and default homepage
P_Edge_Icon.sa.CAB <-- Edge Icon over the signal strength (T-Mobile)
P_PIE_View_Setting.CAB <-- Cingular's IE settings
P_REG_Wiz_Cingular_Mar02.cab <-- Cingular Inbox settings
P_RingTone_Wiz_Cingular_Feb13.CAB <-- Cingular ringtones
Signed_OZPocketPC.Cab <-- Oz IM client for T-Mobile (though I haven't figured out how to get it to work on Cingular's network or wifi, I ended up installing Agile Messenger instead)
Summ.cab <-- Useful reghacks from Summiter's cooked Cingular ROM. Includes:
[list:329e81587e]Enable Indicator
Enable 802.11g
Disable SMS message sent notification
Disable Start Menu animation
Enable Cleartype in Landscape mode
[/list:u:329e81587e]

So far, so good
So I installed the minimal T-Mobile extended ROM, at least minimal for me, without MMS, WAP or IM stuff, but with T-Mobile Hotspots since I use them. I kept three files from Xelencin
MP_CVSDcpl_20060220.cab (96KB)
MP_SmartDialing_enable_0915_signed.CAB (76KB)
MP-Shorcut-MMS1-Voice-CV-TMUS-060404.CAB (72KB)
P_Other_Conn_Settings.CAB (4KB) GPRS, SMS registry settings
P_SecurityPolicy.CAB (73KB)
PP_GPRSandEGDE_DTMF.CAB (71KB) dialtone fix?
Signed_wispa_ppc_release.CAB (173KB) Hotspot manager
TMOUS_Camera_Profile_reg_0414_signed.CAB (71KB) camera updater
Certification_Disable.cab (71KB)
Registry_Tweaks_2.5.cab (2KB)
Total_Commander.cab (394KB)
So far, the only negative is that I can't figure out how to remove Comm Manager from the tray; the old fix (eliminating init_tray in Startup) eliminates the battery symbol but not Comm Manager. This comm manager icon changes color when you are connected to activesync or wifi.
All the regular stuff I use seems to work, so far. The MDA seems a bit more zippy, but that could be wishful thinking.
I've posted this extended ROM at
http://www.mcafee.cc/Bin/MDA/Extended_Rom.zip
Note that it doesn't run itself; you have to interrupt the customization of the 2.26 ROM by a soft reset with the stylus during the 3 second warning, then copy each of the programs in this ROM to the minisd (or whereever you like) and run them.

i read else where that you would have to uninstall the hotspot utility program, for the tray icon to go away. (my suggestion, i dont know that much but try using one from an old build.)
Thanks for the extended cab. now i can get things back to normal.

It could very well be the Hotspot utitlity that makes it appear. I did not install it and I only have the battery icon in my tray.

PLease what is the size limit for the extended rom. I am trying to make mine so that i can flash it to my vario. I dont want nothing to wrong.
Thanks a whole lot.
i also read somewhere that you can use the extended rom to pack (store cabs) so that incase you need to do a hard reset. Your popular programs can be restored easily.

No Size Limit
Actually, the extended ROM has no relevant size limit -- it is just a set of programs in ROM that you can choose to install or not when you are doing a hard reset. When you flash your ROM with the new operating system, it includes these additional programs in ROM; you don't get to choose unless you build another flasher. What this thread is about is choosing not to install all the programs T-Mobile would like you to install; this has the advantage of leaving you more regular memory and having fewer running programs, as well as avoiding T-Mobile's ugly phone screen. T-Mobile's programs will still reside in ROM, unavailable since they weren't installed.
In case I'm not being clear, the point is that the extended ROM contains programs that install just like any other programs; you can install them either from the extended rom or directly by copying the cab file to your device. There is no difference, except that the latter procedure lets you choose not to install some of them; installing from extended ROM is an all or none approach.
With that said, there are some people who try to use the ROM (read only memory) to store something else but your question suggests you aren't one of them. I'm not either; that is an arcane subject. And Xelencin created his own flasher so that he picked what went into extended ROM; that is beyond my current ability. But my approach -- use 2.26, then install a subset of the extended ROM programs -- has precisely the same result as his, but is more labor intensive.

Still no problems
I have tested pretty thoroughly now and still have no problems with my subset.
Thanks for the insight about the Hotspot utility; I could roll back to the previous one, but for now I'll suffer the icon. I have only one spot on the tray left, though.

Trust me Xelecin is not leaving us. He's just reading and reading and do his works. Please be patient guys...
Xelecin: I'm waiting for your extended ROM. I know you're working on it...Let me know if you need help :wink:

Thank you so much for your reply.
Ok here is what i did. I started out not wanting to install all the carbage that t-mobile makes you install. Then i got the thinking that. Even if u dont install everything, you have waisted space. the stuff you dont install (the cabs) just reside in the extended rom. (not sure but heared you cant mess with the extended rom on the vario itself). So did my research and decided to do some rom cooking. I thought it was hard at first, but in the time i put my first post today, which was about 1 hour ago, i learnt all i need to know and did it too.
Now in my extended rom i dont have the crap that i dont need, I have all i need and so the next time i do a hard reset, i let the extended rom autoupdate do its thing cause it only installs what i want it too.
Now for key programs like spb pocket e.t.c i wanted them to auto install too so that i wont have to hassle my self to do them mannually.
any ways here is what i did.
I put prestonmcafee specs for the 2.6 with all of Xelencin recomended cabs together, then made a flashable extended rom of em

Cing 8125 users: looking for input on next ROM

Howdy,
In about a week (assuming that G.W.B. can resist starting WWIII for that long), I'm going to build another ROM. This time I'd like to get some input on what to include.
A few things to keep in mind:
1) The goal is to include apps and hacks that appeal to the widest audience and are useful. If it's something that's not useful to a lot of people, then there's no reason to put it into a ROM. I can add more themes and ringers as well, but they should appeal to as broad a group as possible.
2) I won't include any commercial apps. Not even in an unregistered state. I might consider things that have been extracted from other ROMs, but I'm debating that with the voices in my head and will decide later.
3) Apps should be mature, not beta, if possible. I don't want to have to rebuild the ROM every time a new beta version of an app comes out.
4) If possible, attach registry hacks in the form of .reg files to your request. Or at least post the registry entry in you message.
5) It would we swell if someone could take the lead on tallying up the suggestions and help to prioritize. I'll shoot for building the ROM in about 10 days.
If we can keep the additions under 5 Megs total I think we'll be OK.
Here's what will be in there as of now (which is in the current custom ROMs)
-Oregami themes
-digital, cellular, and electronic ringers
-.NET Compact Framework 2
-A2DP/AVRCP
-Wireless Today screen plugin
-enable multi-select/delete contacts
-a hidden treasure map providing the precise pinpoint location of $2.33 in pennies that I previously buried when I was perhaps 7 or 8
First I want to say thinks for the bang up job you have done on putting together these roms for us.
The only things that I would like to see that I can think of would be the registery hack that makes GPRS/EDGE stay on all the time. And I would also like, if it is possible, anything that would make the phone us a WiFi connection, when present and turned on, instead of GPRS/EDGE.
I am not sure if it is possible to do that or not.
Usefull apps
Well I would like to have these applications in the next ROM
1) Smartkeys - http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41060&highlight=smartkeys
2) Wakeapp - to easily setup OmapClock and other event-driven applications. http://www.kent7.com/holly/wakeapp/ , download EN version at http://kent7.sakura.ne.jp/holly/wakeapp/wa_arm021_e.zip
3) SMSDeliveryFix - to show SMS recipient name in a delivery report - http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42696&highlight=sms+delivery+fix
4) WM5NewMenu - similiar to WM2003 "New" button - http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=40088&highlight=wm5newmenu
5) WM5torage - PDA acting as a memory card reader without ActiveSync - http://www.modaco.com/WM5torage-t238545.html
6) Some software for sending and receiving vCard via SMS.
Thank you for the great effort :wink:
The correct E or G icon
Caps, Num, lock indicators
ability to set OMPA and forget it.
smaller scroll bars
the three reptile themes at this site, I think everyone would like these, grey, blue, and red.
http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/GL_SubDirectory.asp?SEC=3&CatID=70
TCPMP-media player
Total Commander-file explorer/reg editor
Agile Messenger-great messaging app aol,msn,icq etc.
I think these are good apps that everyone could use.
the only thing i think would be beneficial would be adding all the reg edits that reg wiz adds to speed up our device, so we don't have to do it each time we clear storage. THAT would be awesome. i could care less about apps being included, i can install them just fine; but it's a pain in the ass every time i clear storage/flash new rom, that i have to redo all the reg tweaks.
I haven't found a way, but more emphesis on Storage Memory than Program memory would be good for me. I use alot of storage memory with Contacts, Email (even with moving my attachments to storage) and Calendar databases.
I used the much cleaner 2.17 RUU rom without the ringtones but did copy over a couple of them from the 2.17 with RT and OC. Also copied the OMAP clock and it's shortcuts.
A clean Rom without much of the extras would be good.
I also have customized my Cingular connection to use isp.cingular and [email protected] instead of the built in wap.cingular and [email protected] connection. I also turned of the proxy as it was interfeering with my AKU2 push from my Exch2K3-SP2 box.
Is there anyway to use the EXT ROM or add a slider bar like in WM2003SE?

p.s. thanks for the ROMs. I just got my 8125 about 2 weeks ago and have been having mucho grande fun with it.
ROM additions
How about:
- Total Commander
- ?? some sort of free registry editor (PHM RegEdit?)
- smartskey, I agree, but I think it's ini file needs to be in the same directory and it's small so this may not work
- RegWizard (the xda developer forum developed list of hacks), although actually i don't think this is necessary because it along with its framework requires over a meg, and you can just delete it once you install the desired reg hacks. . .
- Magic Button or some other similar task manager thing
I don't think more themes or ringers would be uniformly useful.

Can you add something to truly shut down apps?
I've gotten in the habit of shutting down apps through the running programs tab under memory. Is there any way to make this easier such as putting a direct link in the Start menu to this page or on the Today list.
You know, summiter, you could just fix it so that the programs actually close when you hit the X.

Not unless he is going to rewrite the way Windows Mobile works. Thats a M$ thing. And also why apps such as vBar and Magic Button and InClose exist.
Summiter may be a ROM compiling wizard but lets not lay too many burdens at his feet to fix.
I'm just really happy push email is working.

Adobe Reader 2.0 is huge and belongs in ROM. But is it popular enough? http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2_mobile.html#pocketPC
Continued Bluetooth Fixes
I have notice several still having Bluetooth issues with the lack of support; specifically, SSP over bluetooth. This opens up additional application possibilities not available today. I wouild like to run Bluetooth GPS with receivers such as the Holux 236 GPSlim, but the lack of SSP makes this almost impossible.
Just a thought
I'd like to see common registry hacks already applied and perhaps a txt file explaining the ones included with the new ROM. For example, the ones I listed below are from my own notes so when I re-flash I can re-apply them.
Regarding software, I'd almost prefer to see CAB files instead of pre-loaded software. Since CABs disappear once installed, we could make the choice of installing or deleting, and thus possibly save space but also gain the benefit of having them ready-to-install. You could even use different subdirectories for free vs the ones requiring a registration code to help keep the surprise / disappointment factor down (when we find out it costs money). This would also prevent a problem of competing solutions for some who prefer one plugin over another if they both serve a common function.
Along the same lines, I believe registry hacks can be applied via CAB files or maybe even .reg files (or maybe not - I'm still educating myself with all of this). You could stick with what you have for the current ROM but load it up with optional extras which could be deleted if we just didn't want them.
I think what you're doing is great and applaud your efforts!
I just started configuring my 8125 today, these are the hacks I applied so far (after stepping up to your 2.17 ROM):
Enable scrolling in IE with 4-way button
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\4-Way Nav
Change Value from 1 to 0.
____________________
Slide-out Keyboard Status Indicator
\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd
Create entry EnableIndicator and assign DWORD value of 1(decimal)
____________________
Increase your 8125 speed
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\
Change "CacheSize" value from "0" to "4096".
Assign a value of 1 to EnableCache
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\f sreplxfilt\
Assign a value of 4096 to ReplStoreCacheSize
____________________
Disable menu animation – removes menu animation which uses up system resources
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu
Change "AniType" from "6" (default) to "0" (disabled).
____________________
Change the width of the vertical scroll bar and the height of the horizontal scroll bar so they take less room on the screen:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE
Change cxVScr to (say) 9 to make vertical scrollbar narrower. Default value is 13
Change cyHScr to (say) 9 to make horizontal scrollbar narrower. Default value is 13
____________________
Enable 802.11g
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms]
"dot11SupportedRateMaskG"=dword:00000008
"dot11SupportedRateMask"=dword:00000001
TCPMP
TCPMP definitely, I use this more than any other app on pocketpc devices.
I think you should also consider a paired down ROM. One without any Cingular addons that aren't required to make the device work on Cingular. Basically only the ones that set up MMS and the GPRS settings. I'd even leave out the proxy if thats possible.
But in this paired down ROM I'd still include a few extras like some extra themes and ringers.
And I'd put in the two programs I don't think anyone can live without, SmartSkey and TotalCommader.
Thats basically the setup I have now, but I'm wasting space in my extended ROM and other areas because there are things on my device that I can't remove and I'm not using.

I'm not familarwith SSP. Is it a profile? What does it enhance/enable?
Do you know if there are any WM5 devices which have it? (perhaps it can be ripped out and added to the Wiz)

haha this is at least the second message that goes something like: "how about a ROM stripped of everything, but add this and that and oh yeah add this too". I say this in good fun so don't take offense. It just indicates that everyone has quite unique needs.
I will create a barebones ROM as well. But I don't want to have too many ROMs out there because I don't want to have to rebuild them all when something changes.
As far as using the Extended ROM for other purposes..as of now it can't be done. It's locked in some way that prevents effectively using as storage space. (if you try to manipulate it, it becomes corrupted). So the only use for it is to install stuff at first boot.
Well I might as well put in my two cents....but first....Summiter....marry me! I'll tell my wife to divorce me and she can take her nokia phone with her!
-Ok definitely Smartskey in the same folder as Omapclock so smartskey.ini file can tell omapclock to clock me at 216 everytime after soft reset.
-Please take out the stupid SIP keyboard...i'ts useless and can only be used by leprechauns with little fingers.
-A way to easily change splash screens.
-Hide SIM contacts
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone
new DWORD value named "ShowSim" and set it to 0
1. Disable menu animations to increase performance:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\GWE\Menu"
Change "AniType" from "6" (default) to "0" (disabled).
- Add vibration instead of sound to keypresses in the phonepad for better tactile feedback:
for i = 0 to 9
Give an example for "i" Button:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf "i"]
1. Rename Standart DWORD parameter "Sound" to "Sound1"
2. Create new String Parameter "Sound"
3. Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.
For this there is also a cab file available.
***this is a cool registry tweak
- oh and this is a must have, all these pda phones lack in the phone department...people on the other side of a phone call can barely hear us until you put this registry tweak in.
\\\registry\HKLM\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN(x)\
changed RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME and EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME values to CC. after that change, microphone sensitivity got better and didn't receive any more complaints.
Though i wish someone knew a way to improve the sound mic quality during speakerphone.
And there are so many ringtones in your rom summiter...they all sound alike lol. put the You've got mail.wav file for incoming mail, i have it if you want. how bout some funny ringtones or music ringtones instead?
k that's all

T-Mobile 2.24 BETA Ext ROM Function List

I was a bit curious to see what everything did in the T-Mobile Extended ROM and was poking around in the different factory CABs. I seem to have most of them figured out, but the functions of a few elude me. Anyone have any idea what they do?

edit: ok i found it now as for that autorun utility ive tried to run that and it doesnt run is that normal or do i need to run all those manually

You might ask summiter about this one. When the latest TMo AKU 2.3 ROM came out last week, there was some discussion about a change in the protocol used for ActiveSync. Normally ROMs default to RNDIS, but this new ROM uses Serial over USB--I think this cab adds the Accessory to switch from Serial back to RNDIS. It was hypothesized that leaving off this cab would leave the device in RNDIS preventing a lot of headaches (like having to remember to run the prog to switch to RNDIS after every soft-reboot if Serial doesn't work...), but I never saw anything more about it. Good luck!
ok i dled the right file my mistake

That's what I thought as well, however the control panel to switch between the USB modes is there by default in the AKU 2.3 ROM. The CAB is also oddly small and poking around didn't seem to reveal anything interesting.

Your list in the first post doesn't mention these files:

That is in fact the cab file that adds the USB Switch Control Panel item to AKU 2.2 Rom (in the official Cingular Release) if you don't install it then you always have RDNIS connectivity without the otption to switch to USB Serial connectivity.
AKU 2.3 this is handled on the connections page "USB to PC" by unchecking Advanced Network Functionality.

That's because this is for the US beta ROM, not the UK ROM.
Those files are from the new T-Mobile UK Ext ROM. From poking around they do:

P_UXC1_TMOUK_Jan18_Wizard.CAB -- Adds T-Mo UK Categories to Start Menu
PP_TMOUK-Button2_WIZ_22102109.CAB -- Adds a favorites link to the AppButtons folder
@Gamescan
With what program you are you checking the inside of the CAB files?
For some files I can use WinCE CAB Manager (v1), but for other CAB files it doesn't work.
Do I need Visual Studio for those files or something like that?

Cingular customization cab???

and yes i searched for hours...
has anyone out there made a cab to install all the cingular settings? So that way if i use a clean rom i can just run a cab to do the settings instead of doing them manually? Or if someone can point me in the right direction maybe i can try to make my own.. I am a complete noob at creating cabs and other things but am thirsty to learn...
just copy the cabs out of your extended rom before you upgrade to a none-carrier rom. Then reinstall them once you have the rom upgrade complete.
brilliant, im an idiot
thanks
Here's a cab I created that has the latest Cingular Customization cab, Cingular Heartbeat cab, the O2.tsk theme, oldphone25 ringer, menupop to stop the pop sound when dropping down menus (instead of turning off events, which I need), E icon for GPRS, Temporary Internet files on storage card, Show Time Zones enabled, clock on all screens, standard time instead of military, SMS delivery notify off, backlight brightness set to 75% and backlight off when on battery at 1 minute. no notification on GPRS connect and notification for new email enabled.
If anyone needs a modification or two to this, just ask!
Thats awesome!!!
now does that include all the edge/gprs settings and mms settings? Also what do you use to make your cabs? i am curious cause i just started making my own roms... Made my first successful one last night anyway.. i would like to create a cab for various reg tweaks, and also is it possible to edit other cabs? and if it is possible are you able to change the location where its stored? For example.. say i create a cab to install a program from the extended rom, and lets say i want to install this to my sd card instead of the phone. And please talk to me like i am a n00b.. i have lots of electronics backgrounds, and degree's... however its mostly component level.. not much on software and i am very interested in soaking all of this up.. its so fascinating...
Thanks for you help!
This has the Cingular GPRS settings, not sure about MMS because I don't use that.
I use WinCE Cab Manager to create the cabs. A REALLY neat util I found is Mobile Registry Editor It's kinda neat in that you can browse your PDA's registry from your PC and export keys to files back on your PC and then import them in with WinCE Cab if you desire. With Resco you can search for keys on your device.
thanks for the tip.. and i do already have the mobile reg edit already... i love that thing.. its lot easier to edit the reg from my pc than on my device itself!
Thanks again for the help! you have been an invaluable resource in my goal!
Glad I could be of some help. Others here have helped teach me how to fish, so much better than just giving me a fish.
i would prefer to learn how to do it anyway, that way if it breaks i can go about fixing it instead of relying on someone else

So if someone were to complete a competely clean ROM with no added themes, ringers, etc, I could install that and then install this CAB, and it would then have all the Cingular settings. Would the themes and ringers be deletable?
this cab has no themes or ringers, just edge/gprs settings, but no mms settings..
If it's Cingular MMS settings you're looking for, I pulled these from the default 2.25 ROM.. Pretty much just a bunch of registry settings..
Customization Cabs
I'd very much like to take you up on the offer to request: my want is to be able to install the factory default rom (2.25.11.1 WWE) that came with my Cingular 8125, but I would like to bail out just before customization through the soft-reset. I have done this and been able to re-define my gprs settings however there are other settings I would love to have, like text messaging and cingular's smart dialing option. The only portions of their rom that get my goat are the ForcedWare that comes with it: ClearVue PDF (there is a great free, better, smaller alternative made by Adobe), GoodLink and its accompanying files, and XpressMail (which I loath).
In short,
Is there any possibility you might post a cab set of nearly full proportions, only removing the aforementioned junk?
It would be much appreciated. Thanks much in advance.

JUVS CommMGR 6 button

Hey all,
I installed the JUVS CommMgr because I like the UI much better than the Tilt default Comm Manager. Unfortunately, the JUVS is unable to turn my WiFi on/off.
From the _Setup.xml, it looks like it's trying to use Windows\WLanMgr.exe, which doesn't exist on my Tilt (I do have WLANSettings.exe).
Anyone have a fix for this?
Thanks!
Florp
That's not the issue, and you may not be seeing the wlanmgr.exe because it's hidden.
Goto HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN and change the DeviceName key so that the end of it reads: TNETW12511
There will be a long string of characters before that. Leave that in there.
That also fixes the 10 button comm manager.
I checked that reg entry, and it is already set to "TNETW12511".
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Florp
Change the value from "TNETW12511" into "TNETWLN1" and you should be fine. don't change anything else.
Enjoy !!!!!!
I have a v1615 (Vodafone UK branded TyTnII) and can confirm that the registry setting MUST be "TNETW12511".
Another one that appears to spring up that is also incorrect is "TIACXWLN1". Of course, if yours is a standard HTC and not re-branded to Vodafone as the v1615 then maybe it should be that setting??
I can also confirm that the executable required should NOT be "WLanMgr.exe" but should be instead "WLANSettings.exe".
With the above config, the button works correctly and the Wireless LAN Manager can be loaded from the Settings menu.
I have searched for WLanMgr.exe throughout the device with hidden files enabled without any files being found. I guess it is possible that Vodafone have a different Wireless Manager in their ROM.
For informational purposes, attached are some screen shots of my device:
1 - shows the build etc... is this the right screen to show for ROM or is this just for the version of WM6?
2 - Shows the "HTC.Kaiser.CommManager.3G-GSM-schen.CAB" Comm Manager which now works flawlessly.
3 - Shows my Wireless LAN Manager... Is this the same as others??
Hope the above helps others out in the same predicament.
Now I know what allows me to run this all properly, I may choose one of the other Comm Managers as I really want Push Email included in the list.
On a related note... why is Ringer even included in a Comms Manager?? I know HTC included it originally but seems odd as it's hardly a communications setting!
Confirmed that wlan should be set to "TNETW12511" on Dutch T-mobile branded kaiser

Proxy Enable/Disable

In VPG's 8525 ROMs he included a folder in Programs to Enable and Disable the Proxy (so that one could easily use WiFi instead of GPRS).
I found cabs for restore hidden proxy and remove hidden proxy, thinking those were the same. However after installing the cabs, I can't find them anywhere on my Tilt.
Does anyone know how to make them visible or where they might have gone to or especially how to create a new folder in programs to install them to
Proxy Cab
I am not sure about it working for the Tilt and am actually looking for the cab for proxy settings for my 8525. Do you think you could attach them for me? Or even better attach the link where you found it. Thanks.
I'm bringing this back to life because I've got the same problem.
I wiped all the ATT crap off of my Tilt. Then it seemed that the proxy was still enabled, so I downloaded the cabs here for remove/restore hidden proxy. The problem is, after I installed the cabs, I can't find where to launch the programs from.
Any help?
Installing the enable Cab file enables the hidden proxy.
Installing the disable Cab file disables the hidden proxy.
There is no program installed.
haha, I feel retarded for asking that... I just opened the cab and looked in the XML and realized that the cabs are just registry changes.
Thanks for the reply tho!
Okay, dumb question. I have both enable proxy, and disable proxy in my Windows directory. Is there a way I can add these to HTC Home, so I will have a quick easy way to use them? I also have SPB Pocket Plus, is there a way to add it there?
Thanks!
Hi, where can i get this for my wizard? thanks!
Explain.
Hi I have AT&T Tilt.
I accidentaly activated "Disable Proxy" CAB, and it said it was installed succesfully.
Can anyone explain for what is used Disable and Restore Proxy?
What is its function in my phone and what does that have to do with Tom Tom?

Has nothing to do with Tomtom. If you enable the proxy, you shouldn't be on wifi but rather ATT's network. The proxy is used to access some stuff off the ATT network, not wifi.
