Help. Changing skins, Volume control, etc.. - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

First- I have been trying to find where to lacate and change the background of Comm Manager for Port. and Land. to either balck or use an existing one I have. I can't find it in the registry to change the color base hue.
Second- My Wizard has the slide button on the side to control the volume, vibrate, mute function. I liked that but can't find where or how I can remap my button (6 P to H) to launch that function. I have already added to button6 to registry.
Third- I want to change the initial #1 screen that comes up on boot to something else other than that annoying white AT&T screen, I already changed the others.
If anyone can help me with these I would greatly appreciate it.
I use Resco by the way.

Need Help with Vijay Lumos Workaround using HTC Home prog

With Kaiser not having a transreflective screen, I've really been missing the ability to map a key to toggle the screen brightness like I could with Vijay Lumos III on Hermes.
I don't use the HTC Home screen, but today I activated it and played with it some. I found that it has an app preloaded in the Launcher tab that toggles the display in 4 steps from Low to Hi and back. Using the add function I can see this application as "Adjust Backlight" along with most all of the other programs loaded on the unit.
I would like to create a shortcut link to this app and then map a hardkey to do this function, however for the life of me I can't find this program! I'm hoping that there is some kind soul that can help me locate this prog so that it can be used outside of the HTC Home Screen. I've been looking for a couple of hours and it's got me whipped.
In \Windows I found HH_Launcher Backlight.png which is the icon for the app.
Hopefully I'm not the only one who whould like to have this capability
bump.
Looking to do something like this as well.
found WkTASK (http://soft.photoracer.net/docs/wktask_en.html) which is a nice utility and is supposed to have a brightness and volume control. Everything BUT the brightness and volume control work on my tilt however.
Here's what I've done to work around this... using AE Button Plus, I've mapped the center dpad button ("enter") with standard behavior on single click, and I've mapped a press/hold to the "backlight" application. This brings up the app in settings that lets you set the brightness levels for "on battery" and "powered". Since it wakes up with the "on battery" section active, you then just have to use the "left/right" dpad buttons to turn the brightness up or down (and down/up flips between the battery and on power settings). Not quite a one-click fix, but a click of the center button, and a few of the right button will brighten your screen fairly easily.
The trick here was that AEBPlus didn't want to map directly to the backlight.exe file. When telling it to map the press/hold to an application, it simply didn't appear in the list (even thought I could see it in the directory). Perhaps it hides system files to keep you from accidentally doing something bad. So I had to make a shortcut to backlight.exe, then map AEBPlus to the shortcut.
Kind of a clunky workaround, but it works.

looking for two different cabs

Hello
I am a new owner of an att tilt. I believe it is the same as the tytnII. I am looking for two cabs to install on my phone.
1) a cab that lets me assign a button to switch between vibrate, silent, and ring. I found vibra switch, but it does not include silent.
2) a cab or program that allows me to assign a call log feature to a button. I use the call log quite frequently on my old phone.
Thank you for anyone that can give a newbie a suggestion
Adam
both of those can easily be accessed without cabs.
1- if you have the htc home screen, just press on the symbol that looks like a phone with a music symbol beside it, and it'll give you the option of switching profiles
2- just click the green talk button and then press up on the dpad
want the button press
Thank you for the response.
I have not tried htc homescreen yet. It appears to have a large clock and a tab system of the today screen that I am not fond of. Am I able to leave the today screen basically like it is with that program?
Also I want to be able to map these functions to a button. The reason for this is for easy access while driving. I feel a button press and using the jog wheel is a lot more accurate and requires less attention.
Thank you

[Problem] HTC Sound control

Hello,
I've a problem with my Diamond, the soft button for controling the volume have change of function. Now the work as scroll wheel.
First of all I think it's an application that change the button affectation. Not the good way.
So I try to lauch the volume manager manualy and it didn't appear.
I don't know if a reg key was the point of interest for this. But haven't found yet where is the problem. If someone have already encounter the problem.
Thanks
Partial Found:
It's S2U2 that change the softkey mapping and if sound control is disabled in this application, it's completly disabled.
If someone can send me what have been change, where and the original value for the Diamond, he'll be the "man of the day"
Thanks you

Butler - Using capacitive area as stroke launcher and many more features

I really enjoy this forum since it helps me a lot to increase the productivity with my HTC Touch Pro. I found many useful applications. Unfortunately, after installing a large number of them, I run into the infamous 32 processes limit of Windows Mobile. So I decided to write my own app that combines all the features that I find useful. It is implemented as a Pocket PC service, so it does not require an own process.
Here are the features:
- Better vibration for incoming calls. I found the built-in vibration function very annoying as it vibrates permanently during an incoming call. This extensions vibrates in pulses of 300 ms with a pause of one second when a call is incoming
- SIP changer depending on stylus state. If stylus is out, another soft input panel is selected as if stylus is in. Can be changed via the registry keys StylusInSIP and StylusOutSIP.
- Stroke Launcher. If the finger is stroked from one button to another, an application is launched.Four directions are possible: From home button to accept phone call button and vice versa as well as from back button to reject phone call button and vice versa. The applications can be configured via the RightUpApp, RightDownApp, LeftUpApp and LeftDownApp registry keys. The required length of the stroke can be configured via the GestureMinLen registry key. Unfortunately, the program has to poll HTC's NAV sensor directly in order to not disturb the functionality of the wheel sensor. The sleep time between two polls can be configured with the GesturePollingDelay (in ms). If you use very fast strokes and the device does not react, try to decrease this value.
- Key lock if device is face down. The key lock is activated and the device is powered off if it is turned face down. The key locked is acknowledged by two short vibrations. Key lock can be disabled depending on the foreground window or active process list. Exclude list can be specified via the ExcludedProcesses and ExcludedWindows registry keys. The tolerance for the face down detection can be configured via the FacedownTolerance registry key.
The registry settings for Buttler are stored in HKLM\Software\Butler. Each extension described above can be switched of by setting the EnableFeature registry key to 0.
As I have not much time to react on bugs or feature requests, I have also attached the source code. Fell free to modify my Butler but please publish it here so that we all can benefit from it.
The Butler service is started with the program "StartButler.exe" located in the Windows directory. I call it from a MortScript during device boot. It is important that HTC Touch Flo 3D is already loaded. For some reason, the gsensors can not be initialized if Touch Flo 3D is not loaded. Here is the code I use:
# Wait for TouchFlo3D
While(ProcExists("manila.exe")=0)
Sleep(1000)
EndWhile
# Start the butler
Run("\Windows\StartButler.exe")
Have fun!
Siggie
Change log:
V1.0:
- Initial release
V1.1:
- Reading of the NAV sensor completely rewritten. The sensor is now directly polled. This does not interfere with other programs, so the wheel sensor and the camera is working again.
- EnableFeature registry keys added for switching off each extension individually.

Updated CAB is there. Happy using.

sounds like an excellent program, I'll try it
man, great app. it is totally replacing hbutton, and lets me start using voice commander again. two questions....can you list the other sip layout entries? i really want to use the full qwerty when the stylus is out and in. secondly, is there a way to define a diff lock such as s2u2 and then shut down. either way, the function is fine as is and really, thanks for sharing
I'm interest in Stroke Launcher more than the other apps. is there a chance you can provide a cab for just that portion of your application> I know it's contrary to your original intent (of combining apps) but that's the only one of those apps I really would want so I have the opposite- no desire to install any extra apps even if it's a single process Thanks.
about to give it a shot, sounds great
but i second the request to have s2u2 when put face down
noticed that if you delete the entries for sip, keeping the actual keys though. butler wont start. guess it still needs to check those values i was trying to get it to do nothing to my sip's and just keep full qwerty.
edit** here is the key for full qwerty {36BC8FF6-8241-4c36-ABDE-204885471FEE} and the other keys are all listed under HKCR/CLSID and look like this:
(HTC SIPs)
{198D503A-...} = Phone Keypad
{36BC8FF6-...} = Full QWERTY
{62B00599-...} = Compact QWERTY
(MS Default SIPs)
{42429667-...} = Keyboard
{42429690-...} = Letter Recognizer
{42429691-...} = Block Recognizer
{F0034DD0-...} = Transcriber
Maybe it would be easier to be able to just input the name
Sound great, I'll give it a try as well.
can you make it so that when it face down, the light turn off?
ok i figured out how to change what sip came when
and i turned off "facedown"
only problem is that the smart scroll such as zooming in opera and pics no longer works or autofocus in camera
Great app cannot go unrecognized!
so i downloaded and installed and forgot to make shortcut. A day after i just luanch it using fileexplorer with copy on storage card. Sounds like alot but considering i only reset once a week maybe... its not so bad.
After using it for a half day. I have to admit i was waiting for a way to use shortcuts with out using manilla. I am a RLtoday fan and i dont really use all of manilla features. I LOVE IT. I am considering removing Manilla all together. This has great potential for those of use that want alternatives to manilla.
This should really be placed in essentials.
Thank you.
**BTW cant get screen lock disabled, anyone have more detailed instructions for disabling face down lock?
to disable the lock i set the sensor threshold to 0
in the registry path that was said earlier in the thread
V1.1 available
I have added a new version that fixes the wheel sensor and camera problem. There are also now registry keys available to switch off each feature individually.
ok I dont know what happend but i installed this app and after a restart the keyboard pops up on the splash screen and the phone freezes.. I need a resolution fast. I really dotn want to hard reset. I have a lot of stuff i need back up.... Please help!!!
fuk it. had to hard reset.
any chance on just releasing stroke launcher as a standalone app so we don't need to install all and then disable them? Thanks
Exclude S2U2
How can I disable stroke launcher, when s2u2 is active? I tried to add S2U2(name of DWORD value=0) to ExcludedWindows and s2u2.exe to ExcludedProcesses, but stroke launcher is still active, any ideas?
Great App siggie1970,
Thanks .. I Think The most important thing to do now is to add a User Interface for the configuration..as it kinda hard to do it through the registry
thanks
Wow amazing programs are being released and 09 just started. Great name btw How are resources being used with this program? Since your combining apps perhaps you could work with the guy to incorporate his new alternative to gyrator/ screen tilt app.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that is not the purpose of the program
would it be possible to turn one of the sides into scrolling up and down?
like leave the left up and down for app launching but right side scrolling that would make it pretty much perfect for me
then of course a configurator, although i got it setup but no fun having to change on each new install
It sounds like a great program, thanks! Stroke Launcher, I like that one LOL

Profiles - managing and selecting

I’ve been using a HTC S710 and I liked the way I could press the Power-button and get a menu where I could choose from different profiles (ring volume, vibrate on/off and so on). Is there nothing similar in the Diamond 2?
The only thing getting close to this is in the settings where you have 4 profiles, but you can't create your own or modify them? Also, there is no quick button to change this?
Is it just me missing this?
use GProfile. I dont think you can make your own or edit profiles on its own.
you can find some kind of profile when you press the volume button. on that form there are 2 buttons silent and vibrate.
