Trying to edit the registry on my 8125 to allow for Wireless G connections. I dont really need to hack it for anything else but that. However I tried using the PHM Registry Editor and the installer fails, probably due to Vista and Windows Mobile Device Center compatibility.
I was wondering if anyone happened to have this same setup and installed a reg editor that worked?

not sure about the Messenger cab, but i'm sure you can find a version on this site!
Black Manila theme here:
You Tube app is missing and a CAB is needed desprately. Can anyone help?
no response?
So I guess you compact IV owners dont want the You Tube and Windows Live Messenger apps?
Are you loking to just de-brand?

Applying Black Manilla works just fine. However start menu is still T Mobile white. Even beaming across the original HTC Black theme and choosing that makes no difference.
However Im looking for Windows Messenger (the latest CAB on this forum didnt work) and You Tube App.
hmm i thought the start menu was just part of the theme file...
skin
I want to thank the poster of the manila theme!
I was Looking for this theme, cause the T-mobile theme with the pink logo's was so girlish
Also for other installers, during the install every thing went fine till it restarted. I looked like the phone started correctly, i heard bleeping and it shaked, but the screen was gray with borders.
After that I thought I messed something up, and tried a soft reset, after that it worked like a charm!
ok after lots of atempts i think i have got my compact to a state where you could call it de-branded??
i have got the black manilla theme from the diamond which is allot better than the pink and white! i have got windows live with messenger installed and working nicely, and i have finally managed to get the youtube app on it aswell, so apart from that is there anything else which needs to be changed software wise??
anyone else had any success with this? i know i could just flash another rom but i really want to stay under warranty
Cheers guys
Care to Share...
How You did it... step by step.
Speaking of warranty, I’m in the same boat. I got no issues of changing the ROM as long as I can get back if I need to.
We really need a copy of the T-Mobile Stock ROM!
i would also be very interested in knowing which version of messenger you got to work and where you located it
I know i can flash a different rom but don't really want to until a copy of the original t-mobile rom is available, just in case i need to revert back for warranty purposes.
how i installed Windows Live Mobile...
Okay guys bare with me and let me know if you have any success with this.....
firstly for Windows Live Mobile, i have tried loads of different cabs to get this working, but this has seemed to work for me,
1) install "Windows Live install 1st.cab" then soft reset, once you reset you will have windows live installed but there will be no messenger this should be fine if you just want hotmail.
*****make sure you dont uninstall the 1st cab! they both need to be on at the same time to work!*****
2) install "Windows Live install 2nd.cab" and again soft reset, once you reset you will have all of windows live including messenger just as it is on the stock diamond rom same version im pretty sure!
Windows live is now good to go! over wifi it will sync flawlessly, over gprs/3g it will be hit and miss, as it has been on every other device with wm6, Windows live mobile and T-mobile, i always get my emails however it will sometimes show a sync error aswell. (let me know how you get on here because i have had this connection issue with my last couple of phones!)
i take no credit for any of these files, they are already on this forum and i thank the guys who uploaded them first time around!
Original TouchFLO....
To get the original colours back into touchFLO i used the theme which was posted earlier in this thread on the first page, this does take up about 9mb of space though! however looks far better than the pink and white!
to change the start menu picture go to Start>Settings>System>TouchFlo and de-select 'Enable Large Start menu' this will then give you what ever themes your using start menu, however it wont be as large!

How did you get the you tube app to work?
There is a youtube VGA cab on this forum, which installs - however whenever you attempt to play a video there is an error message
Finally Youtube!
this was the most annoying one!
okay to install this...
1) Install "AdobeFlashLite.cab" this may or may not be required? however i installed it and everything works fine! maybe someone could try with out this and see if it still works.
2) install "HTC YouTube install 1st.cab" this will install the youtube app however it is a qvga version and looks rough on the awesome vga screen and everything is all over the place, however still works fine.
3) unzip the contents of "HTCYouTubeVGA install 2nd.zip" to your \Windows\ directory ensuring the files do go into the windows directory and not into another folder inside the windows directory i.e \Windows\HTCYou... you will be promted if you want to overwrite some files, you have to overwrite all of the existing 200 or so files!
4) do a soft reset for luck and you will now have the full youtube app aswell! exactly the same as on the diamond, i cant remember if i had to create the shortcut to the youtube app myself or if the cab did it, if you have to do it yourself the application is called youtube.exe and is in the \Windows\ folder!
Again all of these files have already been uploaded by others elsewhere in the forum! i have just got them all together, so a big thankyou to all of those members!
let me know your results
Cheers
I also did change the "on-pink" in the connection manager, this was on a dutch t-mobile device but it will probally also work on uk-versions. Just put these 2 files in the windows map with total commander or some other file manager.
Another thing I did was a hard reset and just before the branding kicks in a soft reset. You'll get a pretty clean phone, only some programs aren't installed like tf3d. For tf3d I downloaded the black manila from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408843&highlight=boinger66+black. Opera is also not installed so I will also try to install this from the same thread and give it a go.
Also you can remove the t-mobile connection button on the tf3d interface by using removing globe.cab from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406681
Cheers to craigwn for the windows live messenger and youtube posts - all cabs installed straight away and with a soft reboot between each one, now both apps work great!
One small thing - I installed the youtube, wlm and then the manila theme and have just realised all my contacts have disappeared. Not sure which one of these have done it (or a combination) as I didn't check in between, but will just get them back via activesync so no problem.

i think this may have something to do with wlm, if you choose to sync contacts, it messes with the phones contacts aswell! just uncheck the option to sync contacts in the future.
Hi this is my first post here at XDA so I will start by saying hallo I'm John from Sweden and I'm new to all this win mobile stuff and so far I hate it and I love it. Thanks goes out to everybody here at XDA you are making it easier to love the wm6 (htc touch pro ).
So what do I want?
Today I installed a cocked ROM (ELite) and me being Swedish I missed the Swedish hardware keyboard layout and did some search for a solution and I could not find any solid solution, picking up bits here and there and figured out something that works for me and now i simply want to sheer it.
the file swe layout.zip have 2 files
* eT9.Raphael.swe.txt put this file in yore windows directory
* setSweKey.reg run this file from yore reg editor
or skip the setSweKey.reg file and enter this to registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles]
"07FF"="eT9.Raphael.swe.txt"
eT9.Raphael.swe.txt is a simple text file you can edit it in a regular text editor and make it fit yore keyboard if yore Danish or Norwegian or what ever.
I hope some will find this useful.
Thanx for the effort but I just can't get it to work.
Do you have a 6.1 or 6.5 ROM?
how do i get that on my phone? when i open my phone in my computer i cant find windows. and how do i find that regkey in my phone?
Hi! Im also swedish and your files worked great! Thank you very much!
I have just one question, I can't do the "@" in the top right corner, it makes an "=" instead... What should I do? You have the same problem?
MVH

I have setup the right button to launch my contacts has worked fine until i recently updated to the latest rom by qsqa which has Tf3d2 and win mobile 6.5. When i hit the contact button it launched the stock contacts.
im having similar problems - also icontact doesnt seem to stay in sync with the standard contacts now im on wm6.5 - which i "think" it did before
What are you using to set the link to the softkey button? I usually just do a registry edit which always works with no problems. Using a Registry Editor, goto:
HKLM, Software, HTC, Manila.
Change "HomeLSKPath"/"HomeRSKPath" to wherever your file is for the icontacts. Prob safest bet to link it to the /Windows file path. You can also link to different Manila tabs. For ex, I have my RSk linked to "Manila://internet/page" to bring up the web tab quickly.
Change "HomeLSKText"/"HomeRSKText" to whatever you want displayed on your softkeys.
Do a soft reset and enjoy
it works fine on mine but had to use diamond tweak to change it ... but sometimes it changes itself back to the normal contact from windows mobile ...

This isn't a new app or anything, it's just the latest Comm Manager (2.9.5.0) packaged in a suite. Not very cool is it? Well, the "cool" feature part is Wifi Sharing integrated into the Comm Manager. After going through some packages, I realized that I could integrate the new HTC Wifi Sharing application(as found --> here) into the Comm Manager itself. So after some playing around to try to get all the components to work, I finally got it and put it together in a package. So here it is!
What's in the suite?
CM_Bluetooth_1_1_4_0 (HTC Bluetooth Wizard - Helps make bluetooth pairing easier)
CM_InternetSharing_0_9_2_0 (HTC Wifi Sharing Utility - Let's you share your data connection through wifi)
CM_Phone_1_1_0_0 (HTC Phone and Pin Utility - Configuring phone settings)
CM_WiFiWizard_1_7_3_0 (HTC Wifi Wizard - Helps make wifi connecting easier)
CommManager_2_9_5_0 (HTC Communications Manager - Manages all of the above)
HTCScroll_1_0_1914_2726 (HTC Scroll DLL - needed for Wifi Sharing)
Not much to say about it other than I "ported" the components myself from scratch from various leaked OEM roms such as the new TACHI and LEO, and put them all in one package. I also res hacked some better looking icons into the executables and resigned them, that's about it. I suppose this suite should work with all TouchPro variations at the least, but I have not tested that assumption so. For sure it works on my Fuze. So only install if you know what you're doing. I take no responsibilities for whatever comes from installing it. I make no claims as developing them. I just put them all together.
I will attach both a CAB, and EXT package version.
Enjoy!
AL_CommManager_Suite_with_WifiSharing_EXT.zip - For use in Ervius's Visual Kitchens
AL_CommManager_Suite_with_WifiSharing.CAB (OLDer!)
** Updated **
Changelog: 1.0 - 1.1
-Updated HTC Internet Sharing to 1.1.1.2 (Thanks to Conflipper)
-Left executables untouched to see if this helps with the permissions issue. (no custom icons)
AL_CommManager_Suite_with_WifiSharing_1_1.CAB (NEW!)
*** UPDATE 09/04/09 ***
Added test cabs(below) that installs just the wifi sharing application and integrates it into your current commManager without installing a new commManager. This should mean more compatibility with other devices because we're not overwriting the commManager. But... commManager version might be critical to these cabs working or not, so make sure you have an updated commManager version. Probably commManager versions 2.9+ (Most newer cooked roms should have the newer commManagers). Try the cabs out ONLY if you've been having issues with the commManager suite not working right. If you're not having issues, don't use these cabs as they are the same exact version.
You only need to install one cab, depending on which slot you want the wifi sharing to replace.
(Slot3) = 4th Button from top in commManager
(Slot4) = 5th Button from top in commManager
(Slot5) = 6th Button from top in commManager
and so on... (remember the first slot is slot 0, and not 1)
So figure out which slot in the commManager you want to put wifi sharing in, then use that cab. Use at your own risk!
And don't forget to soft reset after installing! Also, I forgot to mention, HTCScroll.dll is needed for wifi sharing to work also, but most newer roms should have it.
hey dude, thanks for sharing this nice app.
interesting... screen shots? also you might want to make one with htc scroll 2 for 6.5 users.

The application specifically calls htcscroll.dll, so including scroll2 wouldn't do anything. Besides, scroll1 and scroll2 can co-exist, it just depends on which application calls on which dll file.

There isn't enough room for it, so if you want it, you'll have to replace one of the default buttons. It involves a few minor registry edits, which you can do with a registry editor. Programs like Advanced Configuration Tool v3.3 can also reorder and replace comm manager buttons too, but yes, 3G is included and can be used on it.
Here is an example of what needs to be done to the registry in order to change one of the buttons to 3G. I don't want to go too into detail because it requires some registry knowledge, but I'll give an example. Please don't touch the registry if you're not comfortable with it, as it can mess up a lot of things with your phone. I take no responsibilities if anyone messes up their registry from this.
Ok, let's say you want to change the Bluetooth for 3G
Here is what to look for:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\3]
@="Bluetooth"
replace the "Bluetooth" with "3G" like this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\3]
@="3G"
And that should do it. It's pretty simple but you have to know what you're doing. Always always backup your registry before doing any work on it.
Thanks. I'd assumed that Phone or maybe even Flight Mode would be the first sacrificed.. I mean, how often does anyone turn their cellular radio on and off? I've never used those switches

It's probably because the TP uses a different wifi driver than the TP2. I'm sure by changing the registry setting for the wifi device will make it work.
This is what the TP uses:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\\TNETW12511"
Not sure what the TP2 uses, but if you can find it here in the forums and just change that registry line, it should work.

I have the same phone. After reading through another post that previously used the stand alone version, it seems that only certain cooked roms will work with these apps. I haven't implemented a rom on my sprint TP yet, but I will and I'm pretty sure that will solve the issue. So my best advice is to search and you will find a rom that others with the touch pro have used that allowed the app to function properly. Good luck
