Hello, I have a Kaiser and I installed the Softkey applet. Then I tried it out and switched the Left button to a different application. I went to switch it back to the Calendar as it was originally and now I get an error when i click the left button for the Calendar that says "The file 'HTCCalendar' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file." It only seems to give this type of error when I set the Left Softkey to be for the Calendar and new SMS or new MMS messages.
Has anyone else experienced this type of problem?
Anyone know how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
El
anybody know what may cause this??
I have had the same problem. I cannot figure it out yet! I'm getting upset.
Copy that...mine won't reasign. It says "contacts" but pulls up the "calendar" on the left softkey.
Softkey Solution
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys/113
Changing the "(Default)" Key value will change the keys displayed name.
Changing the "Open" key to the appropriate alias will then cause that function to be opened by the soft key. i.e. For contacts change the "Open" key value to :MSCONTACTS will make the softkey function as contacts button.
Note that HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys/113 is for the right key & HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys/112 is for the left key!
THANK YOU!! That worked after a little messing around. It was the first time I changed something in the registry. I appreciate you taking time to help me out.
Works great, thanks!
i went through all this but when i get to the 113 and 112 keys there's is nothing displayed in the lower half of my screen where you can normally change it any ideas?

nm i found the right one in the softkey program it's fine now
Same Problem
I have the same problem:
I changed the Registry Keys for the Softkey 1 and 2 on a Windows Mobile to start a .exe with parameters.
I changed the following keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113
the Open value contains the path to the exe file plus an argument.
(For example "\Path\To\Exe.exe Argument")
If i start the file via the File Explorer it works.
If i try to start it via the left or write button (SK1, SK2) i get the error, which contains the trusted certificate...
The path to the file is definitly right.
I should mention that i get the error on every device i tried...

I am trying to modify the registry (do not wnat the SIM contacts to show). Well strangely anought if I modify it I see the effect right away even without restarting. But once I restart (Power Down & Power up, or soft reset) the reg change reverts to the original setting. I know this was a problem on some smartphones you needed to modify some kind of registry setting to get it stick, but that also meant that your Device ID (for TOMTOM e.g.) would change as well... Anyone ??
Sure that you did power-down and -up?
What you describe sounds like a soft-reset; the changes won't stick.
Do your change, save it , power down by hold in the on/off button. That will stick.
1- Change the reg key
2- Close ALL open programs
3- Power down (normally; NOT holding button for long time)
4- Wait at least one minute!!!
5- Power up, and reset after at least 20 sec pause...
Changes should stick then...
I'm not sure why it is, but changing the registry not to show sim contacts sets itself back to its original setting after a reset. I've changed other registry settings and they all stuck. If you notice, in the contacts-->menu-->options you have the option to show contacts only which hides the sim contacts but as soon as you reset your phone they come back there too. Apparently HTC thinks it's important to always see your sim contacts and not have the option to hide them or something.

Moaske!
Thanx but it still does not stick. Funny is though that when I do change the reg key the effect is immediate, on my old Vario II I needed to reset before the change was active, and on the TyTn II the change is effective right away, because after changing I looked in my contacts and al the SIM contacts are gone. But after a reset (following your instruction) the reg key is back to 1.
OK I just changed another reg key (the one that controls the dialer skin) and that one sticks... I think xeno1 is right HTC seem to think that We always want to see our SIM contacts!?
Anyone with a solution ??
I've got an idea, but not quite sure how to impliment it, but it should be pretty easy. If you've noticed, you don't have to do a soft reset after you do a registry settings change, the effects are immediate. Anyone know how to put a file in the startup folder that will just do the registry settings change on boot up?

Ehm...maybe this may be to easily thought up, but exporting a reg key from your reg editor, and placing that file in the startup folder, would that work?

I tried that and as soon as my phone reboots the registry editor opens as if it's importing that key and then shuts back down again but when I open up the reg editor again it's back to 1. I've also tried just going to the reg file in file explorer and clicking on it and still it won't let it change that one key. This is starting to make me really wonder why that key is so important that they need to lock it like that.
Im glad im not the only one with this problem.. guess ill wait for a fix.
waiting for a fix as well...
I have a fix, thanks to NuShrike over at MoDaCo.

Excellent, worked like a charm...Thank you
when i open the calander i get this error:
The file "htcCalander" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.
the last thing i installed was the htc audio manager...
not sure if that is the cause?
how can i fix the calander?
Mine still loads the windows calender.
I'm running htc home and htc audio.
not sure what ya did to get that calender to come up, but you did something
if i can find where in the registry it points to HTCCalender.exe, i could change it to Calender.exe...
i tried renameing calander.exe to HTCCalander.exe, but it woudent let me
turns out the left softkey is the only problem, i can get to the calander from the start menu...
i used "Softkey Changer.CAB" i think this changed the left softkey link to HTCCalander instead of calander...

Yes it does that. I had this problem aswell today and couldnt get it back even with unistall. However, SKTOOLS will fix this if you have it
hey guys, as you know, the left soft key is mapped for the calender, and i had no issue with it. i used the program in dutty's #7 rom to change it to something else (htc action button).. however, i decided to change it back to calender, and now every time i try to open the calender through the left soft key i get the following error message:
"The file "HTCCalendar" cannot be opened. either it is not sined with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. if the problem persisits, try reinstalling or restoring this file"
whats going on? thanks
omar
Use a registry editor and go to the following key:
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
Change the value of "open" from HTCCalendar.exe to calendar.exe - there is no HTC version of the calendar application, but the soft key changer seems to think there is!
Mark.
hey thanks for your help, i did what you said, and now it gives me the same error message but with Calendar instead of HTCCalendar. ha u know whats going on? thanks
Does your registry key look like this?
\windows\LSK\calendar.exe
If so, look in your LSK folder in Windows via Explorer and I'll bet you'll find it's empty. Mine was and I had the same error as you. All I did to fix it was remove the LSK\ from the registry. Soft reset and it should work, mine does.
Yeah...what he said
Sorry, I forgot to say you had to remove the "LSK" bit from the path in the registry key.....it was late and I was tired OK
Hope it's working now!
Mark.
hey guys, worked perfectly, thanks for all ur help!

I just noticed this fix doesn't stick and will be wiped out during a SR. Maybe it's something I've done wrong.
EDIT: Memmaid was causing this problem during a Quick Clean operation.
"videocall" soft key replaced with the "contacts" shortcut? (CAB.FIX)
New rom 1.93.707.1, replaced the "contacts" soft key with the "video call"...
Can this be fixed via registry change and replace the "videocall" soft key with the "contacts" shortcut?
K
Theres a couple of other posts around for this but I dont think anyone could find a fix for it. I for one find it a nuisance as well!
Maybe I found a solution:
http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showpost.php?p=1145559&postcount=4
Because my english is very bad, I hope somebody else can translate the info from german into english.
Start --> Contacts
I simply use Start Menu ---> Contacts instead.
Both take 2 clicks to get to contacts, hence we can't insist that one approach is better than the other.
Even in other phones (like my old Nokia N70) when you click on call button, it'll take you to list of dialled calls. Not to contacts. If you want to open contacts to make a call in N70, you'll have to click (ooops, press) the 'contacts' button on the home screen.
Here, the diamond takes u to recently dialled numbers when you click the phone link (or che call button). So it's the same.
+ it'll automatically list contacts after the end of dialled calls.
you can rotate your finger around central round button for scrolling.
Hence I should say this is indeed a feature, not a bug.
Anyone tried the reg fix, does it work?
It is not al reg-fix, it's a 3 Files-Fix
People are lazy, many downloads but only one report, a user in the german ppc-welt-forum reports it works fine with "mossis-rom" (a cooked german rom).
I self use the fix with the HTC 1.93-ROM and i found no problems so far.
But where is the risk? If there are any problems, delete the three files, softreset your diamond and everything will remain unaffected.
From GOOGLE
"AW: In video mode phone call disable
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

Quote from SYD
The video call I would like against the "contacts replaced.
Please someone knows the registry entry so that I can change.
Unfortunately, this is a Reg-entry is not done, the softkey is a DLL "Hartverdrahtet."
Possibly. This is a solution to the problem (I'm still the only "beta testers" - therefore experience needed!):
HotFix order at O2 or HTC Diamond with the firmware 1.93 the softkey again to video call back to confirm contacts:
http://rapidshare.com/files/154176504/Phone193_fix2.zip
Attention:
I have all the popular variations, incoming call, outgoing calls, switch on Hold / speakerphone so tested and so far no errors are detected, but nothing goes beyond a broad "field test" - so please post experience.
Application:
The zip and unzip the three files (excluding the Info.txt) in the Windows directory, then reboot the Diamond.
Undo:
The three files and delete the Diamond restart. If the deletion is not possible, helps the following trick: The three rename files (eg with vorrangestelltem "_" So from phcanhtc.dll _phcanhtc.dll), the Diamond restart - then the files can be erased"
Works for me
@Martinhdk: Funny translation ;-)
The fix works for me (German Xda Diamond pro).
You have to replace 3 ROM files because the soft-key is hard-coded in a dll.
You may have to stop cprog.exe (the phone) in a good task manager to remove the lock on the files.
I've just reflashed a stock 1.93 ROM to my phone and applied the three files contained in the .zip file and confirm that it works! No more Video Call softkey on the phone!
Now if someone can turn those files in to a cab that would be brilliant!

When I copy file "phcanhtc.dll" in Windows directory via ActiveSync "Access file denied" occures. Even with TotalCommander can I not change Read-Only-attribute. Any idea?

You could try this cab I made of the relevant changes. Remember to soft-reset afterwards.
EDITED ON 29/12/2008: NB this cab does not work if you are using the Slide to Answer/Ignore Phone Canvas (see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=464286), as although it restores the Contacts softkey it disables the slide to answer functionality.

Thanks Teppic24 nice job!!

Perfect, thanks very much!!
Hi folks,
I have gathered a few questions you might be able to help me with.
Using: O2 XDA Diamond, Olinex 2.4 unsigned, Radio 1.09.25.23, Panosha Simple 1.1, the usual tweaks
1)
GSen. It might be useful to some, but I just don't need this flipping anytime I move the device. I renamed the gsen.exe to prevent it from being loaded on startup. This works, but I get a nasty error message, of course. That doesn't bother me, but I'd still like to know if there's a more elegant solution to this, like a registry entry disabling GSen altogether.
2)
Is there a way to make pressing the little "cross" button (top right corner in most apps) close applications instead of minimizing it? To finally kill a program I have to use the task manager. Any idea how to add a little more power to this button?
3)
About composing messages: Entering a name in a new message used to make the corresponding contact entries popup in formerly used ROMs. That's no more. I now have to open the adress book, choose a contact and select "Send Text Message". How can I get the lost feature back?
Regards,
ziphi
Not sure about 1 & 3, but for 2 unless it's been altered in the ROM your using, goto Start>Settings>System>Task Manager>Button, you can change the action the small cross does.
Thanks,
but this seems to have been changed in Panoshas ROM, there's no "task manager" option in the settings.
Anyone else got an idea?
Managed to solve problem No. 1)
Deleted shortcut file for GSen in /windows/startup/
Problem No. 3 is what disturbs me the most, now. Any ideas?
