Is there a way to customize comm manager (change from 6 button to 10 or change the buttons--replace data connection with 3G) other than using Advanced Config. I can do it through Advanced Config but wondered whether there was another way to do it on the fly that I am missing. Thx.
Did you try looking into the stickied thread at the top of the forum that has all the cab files??
There's a 10 buttom comm manager right there.
I know. I am looking for a utility that switches from the 10 to the 6 or changes the order of the buttons on the 10 or 6. Maybe I am not explaining it well enough ....
Why would you want to change between the two? The 10 button has it all, including disabling data connection and 3G?
Aesthetics. The 6 button on/off looks good with certain themes/roms. Not a huge issue. I guess not a big demand for it.
If you use Kaiser Tweak you can customize the Comm Manager (doesn't change from 6 to 10 buttons or vice versa) but you can re-order the buttons. Give it a shot.
Got it. Thanks.
... Is there anyone that found a way to make the 10-buttons CommManager "dpad-friendly" ?
It's so annoying : you can navigate the homepage of your PDA with the dpad, and then start the commmanager... and there : you're stuck !
Have to touch the screen to choose any of the items (wireless, data, bluetooth...)

Yeah, because it's SUCH a pain to point your finger at the screen and push.
Wow, it's amazing the things people complain about.
If I took your logic, I would ask why Kaiser has a hard-keyboard ? It's so easy for ppl to press the screen
...
I have the aluminum case, and the screen is behind a hardglass !
So you can give a try if you want... but I'd bet your won't even bend the glass.
You didn't say you had a hard case, did ya? I don't have one and I don't know anyone that does. Everyone I know uses the stylus on the screen, just like it's supposed to be used.
Just use AEB to assign a hardkey, I use the windoz logo key, double press toggles BT power, tripple toggles WiFi. You get the picture.
I'll give a try to AEB (my Win button is already reassigned, same for the camera button which triggers the CommMgr...)

Like I said, why would people buy a phone with real keyboard, as there's already onscreen keyboard... That's exactly same scenario.
My question was not about "how could I reeducate myself", but how to turn this smartphone into something even smarter...
Even the ComMgr on the HTC Tornado can be manager from the joystick... (running WM5)
So it's a shame if HTC did remove this so simple thing as focus-ordered buttons...

You bought it, didn't you? Why did you buy it? I'll tell you why - it's one thing to have an on screen keyboard, it's a totally different thing to have a real, tactile keyboard with real keys to give your fingers feedback. You're comparing apples and oranges. Your logic doesn't fly with me, sorry. You can't touch-type with an on screen keyboard (i.e. type by feel).

LOL. Thanks for the laugh. You made my night.
The OP had a question, and I answered it. If it's not what he was looking for, then he should learn how to phrase his questions in a better way.
I don't apologize for my wording. I am short and to the point.
Lastly, some people will complain about anything and everything. You can't help that or change that.
Ok fine, so you're apparently upset about people asking for tips & tricks... Then I assume your Kaiser was just perfect as-is right ?
(...so I guess you kept the stock ROM untouched, and didnt apply any of the great XDA-dev patches/fixes then)
Anyone with a more constructive feedback, like maybe importing the CommMgr of a different HTC pdaphone ?
I have the Tilt with the stock AT&T ROM. It does everything I need it to. I have, however, applied many of the tweaks and fixes available here. I ask very few questions and do LOTS of reading. I read almost every thread in this forum looking for little tweaks to make my phone even better than it already is.
I have no problems with people asking questions. That is what this forum is for. What bugs me is people who post the same question over and over without reading ANYTHING. (not that I was referring to you)
I was trying to be a little sarcastic with my first reply, but I guess you took it the wrong way.
So then, if you said I was posting without reading anything ...
Do you mean you were able to find a way ? (finaly we'll get something constructive)
I am not really new to XDA-dev, so I know how searching the place works...
Unfortunately, neither the 6buttons nor the 10buttons CommMgr is able to do (apparently) what I'm trying to get.
Hence the post...
Well I highly doubt that you will be able to switch between the 6 and 10 buttom comm mgr. They are both cab installs and require a SR after install.
What about RemE's suggestion? Did you try that? You could also remap the PTT button.
P.S. I wasn't referring to you when I said people don't read before posting.
A few questions and do not laugh.
Is the kaiser and the tilt the same thing?
Can I put the touchflo software in my tilt? If YES, there are about 459 threads about the touchflo. Which is the one I should go to with the software and installing info?
I have issues with the response speed of the touch screen. Can it be resolved? Sometime I have to tap multiple times to have a response
About the kaisertweak. Is that ok for the tilt ? Should I install it?
Thanks for all your help and remember... patience is a virtue.

The Tilt comes with Touch-flo installed from AT&T. I didn't have to do anything to my Tilt and all that had to happen was one person showed me touch-flo on their Tilt. I tried it and it worked immediately. I didn't change any settings or install anything extra. Give it a try. Open your contacts list and quickly slide your finger from the bottom to the top of the screen with a light touch. Once you get the hang of it you can have it spinning like the big wheel on the price is right... except here you just tap the screen to stop it where you want it.

Jay is correct
In my opinion, after installing Kaiser Tweaks, scrolling worked MUCH better. There are 2 settings in Kaiser Tweaks which affect scrolling, sensitivity and finger pressure.

Yes, there are setings to "tweak" it, but I found that the default was the lightest touch. I tried the "advised" settings in Kaiser Tweak and I couldn't get that thing to spin to save my life. Every time I tried I had to push the screen so hard that often times one of my contacts opened instead. I ended up putting it back on the default settings.

It's funny, I have the exact opposite experience. Right now I have 2 Tilt's in front of me. I had to order a replacement, and still have both.
The new one (untweaked) is almost impossible to scroll. The tweaked one is very easy to scroll.
I have Kaiser Tweaks set to normal on sensitivity, and very high on finger pressure.
But, you know what they say, to each his own

Thank you Finally Got it
Tweak problems on my TILT
HSDPA on my TILT is displayed at all times. I installed the lates Kaiser Teak a few months ago. My TILT use to display 3g when no data is in use but now H shows as my primary display regardless of data being used or not.
Is there and updated Kaiser Tweak out. If there is can some post the new link. Thanks

Hi everyone
Have noticed a couple of strange problems while using the slide out keyboard on my kaiser.
Whenever im typing anything and i press the space key it will sometimes put the space after the first letter of the next word instead of between the two words, so the first letter of the next word is now stuck on the end of the last word! (did my best at describing that!)
And also sometimes when i press the delete key it will delete whats in front instead of whats behind so i then have to press the function key to change it back.
Has anyone else experienced either of these problems?
Regards
Jamzi
Have you even used the SEARCH function?
Are you using a stock or cooked ROM? I'm going to assume you're running a custom ROM, since I've seen this problem being described several times in regard to custom ROMs.
Ig uesst hisi sy ourp roblem...
=> Disable xT9:
http://www.4shared.com/file/36879118/89dc721f/duttythroy_Disable_xt9.html?dirPwdVerified=36a07e05
Hope this helps...
Yes i have used the search function and found nothing thats why im asking, thanks for asking though.
At the moment im using duttys april 29th rom but have noticed on most of the roms ive used apart from the stock one i think.
Thank you for your help i'll give that a try.
Regards
Jamzi
I'm sorry for nagging, but:
If you had read Dutty's Wiki first (link provided in second post Dutty's ROM thread), you would have found:
Q: How do I get back auto complete while typing in the “to” fields or any where else? How do I get rid of xt9? How do I fix my keyboard from typing slow or pausing?
A: Download this file (disable xt9) and install it. Then power the phone off and on.

And using keywords from your original question, I found multiple threads and posts answering your questions. Please use the Google search function, since it seems to be more efficient than the builtin one.
Don't worry, this sermon isn't personally directed to you, but to all those asking already answered questions. I just can't help it sometimes.
If you'll excuse me, I want to get back to my knitting...
No worries mate, i appreciate your help.
Regards
Jamzi
had exactly the same problems as youre describing, was about to ditch duttys rom for a new one ... but i'll try this first
surely this affects more users? oh well i've not seen the topic come up , thanks for the advice trying now
EDIT:
Fixes it fine ta!
I have had more time to play with the Diamond, so far, here are some of the things that can really ruin the experience:
1. Sometimes, in Opera, when tilting the screen to horizontal you exit Opera and end up in the dialler!? Why does this only happen sometimes? I thought it was a conflict with G sensor, but it happens even when it's disabled.
2. The home button sometimes stops working until I do a soft reset.
These two issues drive me insane!! I have searched for workarounds but have found none. Any advice?
S.
A workaround for home button not working?
Sometimes, when in the phone log, the ok button disaper, and the home button is not working (or any of the other buttons). But when this happens, i press the start menu to bring up the startmenu in WM, then press the home button. This will then bring back the home screen, and everything works ok.
Thanks for the reply Ohansen. I hope there's a better fix than that, the home-screen button should always work!

Probably a heap of people read it it and sighed, "another person who has not found the search function, someone else will have the energy to answer".
Your issue 1 is a known issue and is ROM specific. Flash a different ROM and it will go away. Well to clarify, the Opera version may have an effect to. But for me at least the fix was to switch to another ROM and all came good.
Ohhh, so snobbery is the reason then? I tried the search and what I did find was threads with 30+ pages! What's wrong with asking for some concise help or even direction?
Thanks for the reply though. I'm using Swift BL, v.6 with the latest Opera included with it. Too bad if I have to flash, I like this ROM a lot...
Snobbery or laziness. I don't know. I just did a search for Search = opera dialler but I agree it is hard to get the search to work in this forum as it is somewhat convoluted.
In any case I suspect you may need to flash another ROM to fix it. When I had the same issue (Panosha Rom) it was sporadic and was only effecting me and one other guy but importantly with the same ROM. Have not seen the issue again since.
Thanks for the reply! I'll update to v.6.2 Swift and see if that helps.
Another issue I just thought of, can you please tell me how to exclude opera, teeter, the picture browser and coreplayer from Gsen? I have read the readme file but don't understand it...
Windows bottom menu tabs.
I would be grateful if COOKS could put a little more though into what tabs are placed at the bottom as I dont think these can be changed.
For instance, why put a phone button on there?, why a WIFI button, contacts, etc when these are already duplicated in other screen menus.
Of course this can be subjective but a little more thought could make a good ROM a great one.
For me the most useful tabs are, task manager, programs and menu.
Please note that I do appreicate all the hard work that is done on these ROMS, all of which done free of charge, I hope this thread doesnt sound ungrateful, it isnt meant to.
It is very easy to change if you don't like the one that is there...
really, I have never found an "easy" way without hacking the ROM, it there setting somewhere that doesnt require reg hacks?
in his topix ROM, kwbr has included Softkey Manager to change the button setting...
P/S: not sure if this works for those WM 6.5.x ROMs (just in case you are) but i been using this to change the softkeys...
