Boot screen is a 'special feature' addition for TuMa v1.4. It was to try and comfort people with a nice boot screen since everyone panics with the colour bars. TuMa v1.4 was also designed to be a 'feature rich' out of the box solution ... but the feedback I've had has been to go the other direction.
Anyways ... if you want to have the bootscreen in ANY other ROM, all you need to do is the following:
You'll find the application and TuMa v1.4 Bootlogo attached in the ZIP.
To make it run at startup, just include the following registry entries, and place the files from the ZIP in /Windows directory.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Depend32"=hex:14,00,1E,00
"Launch32"="BootLogo.exe"
Once you've done that - any of the other CABs I created can then be used, or just replace the BootLogo.bmp file. You will need to ensure that the BMP file is in the SAME format as the example. 8 bpp, and same file size & resolution if you want to change it. That's all that is required.
so short explaination:
1. Make a BootLogo.bmp or use default WM5
2. Copy BootLogo.exe and BootLogo.bmp to \Windows
3. Crete these registry entryes into registry
4. Reboot
how do i do step 3 ... how do i create registry into registry as there r no steps mentioned.. pls advice

Download `total commander` for ppc (google it)
in total commander (TC), go to the top (the root) directory `\` and you should see a `\\`. Double click it and go to `registry`
You should see something like
HKCR
HKCU
HKLM
where HKLM is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
do your guess work from there

Re: hey
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Depend32"=hex:14,00,1E,00
"Launch32"="BootLogo.exe"
1. Launch your resco registry explorer whatever regedit utility u use
2. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init
3. Create a new Binary Value with
Value name: Depend32
Value Data: 14 00 1E 00
4. Create a NEW String Value
Value name: Launch32
Value data: BootLogo.exe
5. Save if u need to. exit
6. Reboot

I copied the BOOTLOGO.exe and BOOTLOGO.bmp to the Windows Directory.
I added the String value LAUNCH32 VALUE BOOTLOOGO.exe
that way easy
with the Binary when i add DEPEND32 on the VALUE there's already 0000 and i can only input after that... anyway after doing that...
resco doesnt ask for saving anything.. so i close the folder and when i reopen it the new value r there... i restart but no bootlogo.
don't know what am i doing wrong.

ANYONE
OK I added the registries copied the bootlogo.bmp and bootlogo.exe to the windows folder...
Restarted nothing happens... Same old 4 colors.. can someone confirm this method works... pls

Shortcuts in Settings menu

Is this possible? lets say you want to add a program or program shortcut to the settings folder (personal, system or connections) how can i do this? Is it only able to be done at a cooking level?

It's possible:
The (die)Hard way
Eg. If you would link \windows\backlight.exe to the controlpanel's second tab,
edit registry the following way:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Backlight] ; The name "Backlight" will be visible in the controlpanel
"Group"=dword:00000001 ; Groups directs to the tab, see below
"Redirect"="Backlight.exe" ; links to the actual is \windows\backlight.exe, but because it's in windows, backlight will suffice
Groups can be:
00000000 -> first tab
00000001 -> second tab
00000002 -> third tab
Also edit HKLM\Software\htc\htccpl
Change the "totalApplets" If You add one!!!
Then add a key just like this (change the applets number though!)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCCPL\Applet3]
"CmdLine"=""
"Path"="Backlight.exe"
"Title"="Backlight" ; Keep those names the same!!
"Name"="Backlight" ; Again, keep it the same!
-> The Easy way <-
If this doesn't work, try pasting a lnk to \windows\Start Menu\Settings\
Now the link will be in the system (2nd) tab.

Eg. If you would link \windows\backlight.exe to the controlpanel's second tab,

Ok so lets say I want to add a task manager program to the system tab and the file for the program is in \windows\task manager\ would I need to create a registry entry for it with a redirect and group entry like:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Task Manager]
"Group"=dword:00000002
"Redirect"="\Windows\Task Manager\task.exe"
?

Edit: Icon appeared after soft reset Thanks Equinoxe!

Messaging storage

Is it possible to store sms, mms, emails directly into internal storage instead of main memory?

With emails and attachments you can, but i'm not sure if this is possible with the mms and sms.
For emailstorage onto your internal storage, first create a folder like mail or something else and create a subfolder \mail\attachments.
Then goto the registry with a reg editor or with total commander. Goto key:
HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings and create the following strings:
PropertyPath and set to \Internal Storage\Mail
AttachPatch and set to \Internal Storage\Mail\Attachments
Then reboot the phone and you're ready to start synching your emails and contacts.

Yup, thanks!
Hope someone can find a way to direct all incomings to internal storage.

Hi !
Try this, it *should* works :
Create registry key in "HKLM\Software\Microsoft"
In the new key ( "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MAPI") :
Create a new string "DbPath" with value "\Stockage interne\SMSMail.vol" (for french) or "\Internal storage\SMSMail.vol" (for English, I think)
The "SMSMail.vol" is an example, you can use what you want !
Create a new string "AttachPath" with value "\Stockage interne\MAPI\ATTACHMENTS" or "\Internal Storage\MAPI\ATTACHMENTS"
Create a new string "PropertyPath" with value "\Stockage interne\MAPI" or "\Internal Storage\MAPI"
Soft Reset
Your SMS/MMS are on the internal storage !
You must change some other value in registry to have the MMS attachement on internal storage too
Look in "HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config"
If you test this, give me your result !

It doesn't show on tf3d anymore

Strange, I make a test for you.
I create this value in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MAPI :
DbPath = \Stockage interne\cemail.vol
AttachPath = \Stockage interne\MAPI\ATTACHMENTS
PropertyPath = \Stockage interne\MAPI
I put the entire content of "\Windows\Messaging" folder in "\Stockage Interne\MAPI"
I make a soft reset and ... tada ! SMS & MMS show in TF3D !
Where is the mistake ?
Seb = = = o>°o

All the older sms doesn't show however newer ones does.

SIM Contacts

Funny one,
I implemented the registry edit to remove the SIM contacts
[ HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone - create a new DWORD value named "ShowSim" and set it to 0 ]
But each time I switch the phone off and on again they appear again and the registry changes itself back again.
What's going on here then?
Something I'm doing wrong?
Anyone else had this happen?

It's a bug in the 1.37 ROM. I don't know whether this bug has been solved in the 1.93 ROM. Which ROM do you have ?
I have it too and everybody else with the 1.37 ROM, but found a solution to it. You can, after each soft reset, import the above registry key manually, but that's al lot of work each time.
Automatic solution is:
1. Dowload and install this .cab file on your Diamond: http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=download&action=view&entry=65
2. Open notepad and copy and past the following code and save the file as HideSIM.mscr
Code:
#Basic script to automatically disable SIM contacts in Contact list in 1.37.0.0 ROM
#
#Written by MRE - Tuesday, august 8, 2008
#
#Set timer to wait to load complete registry. Do not modify.
#
Sleep 60000
#
# Enable or disable error reporting. Error levels are: off, critical, syntax, error, warn
#
#Errorlevel warn
#
#Delete original registry setting just in case
#
RegDelete ("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Phone", "ShowSIM")
#
#Write registry settings to hide SIM contacts
#
RegWriteDWord ("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Phone", "ShowSIM" ,0)
#
exit
3. Place the HideSIM.mscr script in the \Windows\Startup folder and you're done.
Each time you soft reset your device, the script will run and your sim contacts won't show up in your contact list.
Thanx to Mirko Schenk for the Mortscript utility and the timeout tips

attached cab worked for me on 1.37

exe solution
Hi,
I created a simple exe to do it.
Place HideSIMContacts.exe in the windows\startup folder.
run it manually once (to validate the certificate warning).
This exe duplicates the 60 seconds wait behavior above.
cheers,
Mohamed

You can install any developer app (from the xap file) in the settings. In the: WMAppManifest.xml file, you have to add one string, in bellow line:
Code:
<App xmlns="" [COLOR=Red][B]HubType="268435456"[/B][/COLOR] ProductID=" blablabla .....
You have to add only: HubType="268435456" with spaces before and after string in the place like in the code.
For WP7.X that work.
