Had to Remote access a SBS 2003 Server from my Vario III "for real" the first time today.
Seems if you use the on screen keyboard (large Keys - No numbers showing), when you press the 123 button to access the numberpad, the numbers don't work on the destination machine. (Update: The 1 does, not no others)
Tried with Small keys (Number showing) and the PCM Keyboard - same effect - only the "1" transmitted, all other number keys are inoperable.
Same goes for using the real keyboard, as the Fn button has to be used, and this seems to affect the remote access (ie no numbers appear)
As I use complex passwords, I had to enter these on the application page before connecting - no problem there, but not being able to type numbers when connected is no good.
Any ideas - there doesn't appear to be an about/version screen on WM6 Remote Access.
Bump!
Has anyone got Remote Access to work AND type numbers?
Hi,
I think (better I hope) I have found a solution for the "HTC looses HTTP proxy settings for WiFi connections". Probably you have already noticed, that the HTTP proxy setting for a WiFi connection (e.g. configured using "Work" connection setup) is lost after closing and reopening the connection configuration dialog.
During my investigations I found, that the registry snapshots, shortly taken after entering the proxy and after reopening the configuration settings again, were nearly identical. There was no clue, that the configuration program itself reversed the settings, so there was a high feasibility, that the problem is either the entry or the re-read into/out of the registry.
The problem seems to be, that the configuration program does enter the proxy setup in a wrong format. Whereas the "type" parameter should be set to "1" (HTTP) the configuration setup sets this to "0" (null proxy).
So in order to reverse this one has to change the registry (e.g. using PHMRegedit) by performing the following procedure:
1) Go to
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}
2) Locate your proxy setup (key starts with HTTP-{xxxxxxx})
3) Change the "type" value to "1"
For PocketIE the parameter "EnableAutoDetect" in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings (Note: There is no space in the key, don't know, why this forum inserts one) should be either not there (default) or set to 1.
Please double check and let me know. Keep in mind, that your settings may get lost, every time you tamper with the connection configuration program. Probably somebody could provide an OMA Provisioning CAB (_Setup.xml with CM_ProxyEntries and stuff).
EDIT: CAB attached. The contained _Setup.xml connects WORK (SrcID) with WiFi (DestId) using the specified proxy. Taylor it to your needs. Don't forget to "makecab /D COMPRESS=OFF _setup.xml ProxyOn.cab" (Note: COMPRESS=OFF) and ActiveSync it to your device. Tap it to "install". Save the cab for other uses.
EDIT II: Registry key fixed...sorry....

i hope this works, ill give it a go when i have time.
It works - great.
Thank you
Andre
I tried the proposed solution, using the .cab file and also by hand, without success.
My regietry key defining the proxy has type=1, but still does not connect...
Sorry, It works when conneting through activesync, but not through wifi.
Does anybody know where is the "intelligence" that decides which connection to use? Is it in the registry?
You have to ensure:
a) Your WiFi board connects to Work, not to Internet
b) Both connection setups must point to Work
The providec cab connects Wifi with Work and configures the proxy.
Hi, neil,
Thanks for the quick response. I did check that the card points to Work, and both connection set ups point to my work network. When editing the connections, I can see that the proxy is well defined. If I enter the registry, I can also see the proxy definition and "enable=1", "type=1". But still PIE hangs in "locating..."
Now, I run the .cab file with wifi "on"...
Probably something is wrong with your proxy. Fortunately I have a transparent proxy up and running. 141.39.43.185 port 8080. Try it. I'll see you
BTW: Sometimes a softreset does make wonders...
Regards
Ah, and don't forget: Whenever you open your devices proxy configuration and closes it again, the proxy config is messed up again by HTC.
Regards
Will try and provide feedback, but, What do you mean by try the transparent proxy? Shoul i define that proxy?
I din know about soft resets. I have even done a hard reset so I am now traying with a fresh registry... Have not ASed yet. But I wonder, Is there a key in the registry that defines which are the correct connections? Or is it all done via SrcId and DestId?
One more thing. I tried to change the proxy definition in your cab file. Extracted the setup, changed it and winrared it back... but this new cab will not install. My proxy is 192.168.0.254:8080...
Sorry for beeing not specific enough: Yes, please define that proxy. Transparent was meant in the sense of "does nothing than transfer back and forth"
Concerning repacking: Use makecab not rar. And don't compress.
SrcID and DestID makes the thing. This GUIDs haven't changed since the very first version of WM
Regards
Tryied my own cab file and worked... only once. It's lost again. Soft reset and will recheck. Thanks for the support
I can not make it connect anymore.
I run the cab file without success. What should the sequence be?
1.- set both connections to "my work network"
2.- open PIE
3.- run the cab file?
In Mobile 6.1 the settings stays but PIE doesn't use the the proxy configuration for some reason.
I'm experimenting with this. Making progress. But I'm still having some difficulty.
I think my Socks proxy port is not getting set right. I'll post back how it is going, but does anyone have thought about the Socks?
[EDIT]
Well, I had hooked up once (or maybe it was reading cache).
Anyway, I'm not having luck. It looks like the settings are right.
One thing I do notice, is that the WAP one, the Type is 2, and the Socks the type is 4, if that makes any difference. But the type for the HTTP one is 1, and the setting for IE looks correct to.

With the downloaded cab, extract the file (may use winrar), change it to your liking and makecab again (no compression).

Hi, Neil
Have you noticed the key "Modified"? If no wifi network is selected, this key seems to be "0", but when a wifi network is connected, it changes to "1"...

Hi Javes
That is what I'm doing. The only mod I made to the file was I changed the Proxy address to the DNS name of our proxy here at work.
What I"m finding is that the key is going in with Type set to 0, even though the XML file has 1 in it.
I'm also noticing that there is another HTTP characteristic with my Proxy (I'm guessing likely from setting in Conn Manager, with my Proxy, and a type of 0, so I have manually set both it and the one added by XML to a type of 1.
After that, still does not connect. I soft reset, and they are back to 0.
So, I went into Connection manager, and deleted references to Proxy,and turned off Proxy, and ran DClicked the Proxy cab again. The settings went in with 1, doesn't connect, and I get a popup that says "Cannot connect with current connectin settings"
So, I soft reset again, and it's back to 0.
So I went into connections, set Proxy to ON, but no proxy settings. Ran the XML file, still no connection.
I think I have a gremlin that won't let mu connect on the public at work. Interestingly, one day a copule weeks ago I was successful connecting...until a soft reset later that day. I had set EVERY item with my work Proxy: HTTP, WAP, SOCKS, and SECURE WAP.
ewingr,
I am no expert at all and have no solutions. Like you, I followed the original instructions about the cab file, with results similar to yours. I've been able to connect on two different occasions, but these connections only last for a minute. After this minute, connection is impossible for me, with resets, re-cabs and the lot. Lets wait until someone more knowledgeable drives us to success...
In the meanwhile, I will keep trying different things.
Hello,
I have the HTC Touch Diamond with WM6.1. I love the phone but my exchange administrator has implemented password protection for my email account. So every hour my phone is locked until I enter the password. Does anyone know how to extend the time or disable the password in the registry. I have found several references to the registry setting in WM5 but that did not work so I am wondering if it is a different entry in WM6.1 Any ideas?
Can anyone help me with this?
This should work on WM6.1:
\hklm\security\policies\policies
Change value name "00001023" from '0' to '1'.
Or: http://cid-79cd30393341a619.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/WMSimulateKeyPress.zip
Or: http://www.modernnomads.info/wiki/i...ation+when+your+PocketPC+is+on+external+power
Or: http://mobilitytoday.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13030&page=2
Btw, think about it before you remove this policy. The sysadmin does not enforce this policy for nothing. I learned to live with it, it also has some advantages (for example when your device is stolen and you won't accidently push any buttons)
Thanks for the reply. the 3rd link which is Zen's program does not seem to work in WM6.1 in the Diamond. The registry entry definitely does not work because I have set it and reset the phone and it still locks. You have a point about why the password is there but it becomes a safety issue when I am driving and need to make a phone call. I am not sure what the Simulate Key press does could you provide any more information?
I am finding that with the HTC diamond alot of the customization has changed alot of the functions for the registry. I wish I could find someone that has figured all this out.
Hi everyone!
Is it possible (and how) to customize the "àü" key on hardware keyboard? I mean: adding new characters, deleting characters, changing the order of characters you can write with this key.
Connect your phone in ActiveSync mode to your computer and open Phone\Windows\sym.0409.txt.
There it is. I'm not sure you can add more characters, but you can move them around. Each line is representing one hardware key. Each time you press àü it jumps to the next character on the line in that text file.
I use PQzII and AE button plus to remap the key as a CTRL key. Use AE button plus to remap the AU key to ESC key and then PQzII to map Esc as CTRL. AE button also allows you to give double press and long keypresses so you can get things like a windows key with the phone closed.
Thank you!

Could you explain which exact settings you used in PQzii? I have it installed along with AE Button Plus. I was able to map 'au' to ESC, and then after setting PQzii to map CTRL to ESC, it doesn't function properly. It has even froze my X1 a couple of times.
I have nothing else checked or enabled in PQzii, as I only want to use the 'au' button as CTRL (for cut/copy/paste).
More details would be greatly appreciated...thanks in advance!
sym text file in windows folder is read only,
tried editing it from my computer, (deactivate read only)
but just wont do.
works like a charm
copy it to your pc, untag readonly,modify your keysequence ,save it,
make it readonly again, copy it back to your x1, instant working

Thats strange, it worked for me. Make sure your PQzii version is the right one, all I did was remap Esc to Ctrl and use AE button to remap AU to Esc
If you can't overwrite through ActiveSync, copy it directly on the phone using Total Commander.
The "àü" key and Htc HD keyboards
In my X1 the "àü" key and the predictive system work well in the phisical keyboard before Touch HD keyboards installation, but they stop working after HD keyboards installation.
If I uninstall the cab file they back to work
Do you have any idea about this?

yes, because the predictive function, the SE specific keys (e.g. the "àü" key) are enabled via the IME DLL file (compime.dll) which got overwritten by the TouchHD keyboard cab (t9ime.dll)

It's be wonderfull to have the TouchHD keybord working perfectly inside the X1!
It's wierd, my au key still works with the touch HD keyboard installed.
Yes, it worked:
Copied the sym txt to desktop, unchecked read only
edited it, rechecked read only
copied it back to device root folder
copied it to windows directory with total commander
thanks

hardware key "au"?
which CAB file did you install this so I can take alook?
Is there any list with mappings between the characters and those HEXA-numbers in the sym0409.txt -file?
I'd like to change sym0409.txt such a way that ä ja ö would be the first option after pressing a+"au" and o+"au" . Anyone could tell which Hexa-numbers to move around? Or are they in order for vowels starting from a and certain number of special characters per vowel? If yes, then I think I can find what I want.

I do not have the sym.txt file. I found in windows directory SymPad0410.txt, sympad0409.txt and sympad0409_phone and i've tried your procedure (copy in desktop - uncheck read only - check again read only and copy back in root then in windows folder) with these but doesn't work.
And however what I had to edit?
which PQzii do you use. There are a lot generalny for HTC
I can confirm that it worked for me too without the "copy to desktop" stuff, as i use a mac and syncmate did not allow me to fetch that file.
This is how you can do it on the X1 itself:
1. I installed total commander on the X1
2. In total commander i copied sym0409.txt to \my Documents
3. I also copied a backup to \Temp (Thats very advisable!)
4. I went to \My Documents (still in total commander), highlighted sym0409.txt and pressed the edit button. (the icon is a red pencil in front of a white sheet)
5. Edit the file and save it. It should have more or less the same amount of bytes if you only re-ordered it (498 B, i think)
6. Copy the file back to \Windows
7. Test by starting a new application and write stuff
If it failed:
8. Copy the file from \Temp back to \Windows
I (we) know that exist tools and app to crack wpa key of many providers (I'm italian, there are many tools to crack default wpa key of router of Alice, Fastweb, Infostrada...).
This is possible because the wpa key of the router is not randomly generated, but with a deterministic alrogythm (function of SSID or MAC address...).
My question is: why the wpa keys are not generated with a random algorythm?
Well what you just said, I am not sure and also I don't know if any software exists that does that.
Not a discussion that we want here.
