Mobile 6 & 6.1 applications , themes, problems and ideas

Mobile 6 & 6.1 - The whole story.
I am trying to put together this one super thread of applications that we like and dislike , the problems and advantages of them. As people add to the list I will add them to the first set of posts so as to make reading a lot easier once the thread grows. The first posts will also have the post # that it refers to, to also help in easier reading for others.
I will personally try to test as much software as possible if not every piece thats questioned about. The phone I am using is the t-mobile wing until I get my hands on a few other phones.
Please no flaming as I am sure tons of noobs will be drawn to this thread. All I ask is if you cant read the first page then leave, because you know people are going to flame you no matter what.
So there you have it people one thread to ask complain and say what you feel about any aspect of mobile 6 & 6.1.

PURESKILLZZZ thanks for the reply.
its just the first post leads me to an open touch release and the part thats relevant isnt very clear(about mms setup).as far as deleting arcsoft from the registry gos.
the second is very helpful but the fact that im uncomfortable deleting registry values that aren't specicific cancels it out.
any help and the diligent yet apprehensive reader of this great forum that gets made fun of by his wife for staring at the screen to read so much usefull info would be greatly appreciated!

The MMS walk through for non-working MMS. ( Originally by ndiguy5 )
1.) Remove MMS from the registry.
2.) Registry: HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA
3.) Now install Arcsoft_MMS_4281 to install MMS back to phone.
4.) Install network wizard, if you have it already installed skip this and goto the next step.
5.) Now use the network wizard to set up your settings.
6.) It should ask you to soft-reset.
7.) Now you should have a working MMS. If any problems post and I will try to assist you.

UltimateLaunch description
UltimateLaunch is a powerful plugin for the Windows Mobile today-screen. It provides as many tabs as you like, where you can place other today-plugins and icons to start programs. Switching between tabs can be performed in a modern way with your fingers, by sliding in the desired direction. The switching process will be animated. Almost everything can be individually adjusted.
Here are some key features of "UltimateLaunch":
· unlimited number of tabs on the today-screen
· smooth animations of tab-switches (cube, slide, blend, turn, stripes)
· integrate other today-plugins
· nice 32Bit icons in any size, to launch applications
· (alternative normal program-icons)
· completely operatable with fingers
· application launch, by tipping on the symbols
· switch tab, by sliding left/right with the finger
· start additional programs, by sliding up/down
· display of system state (battery, time)
· many settings, for the own liking
· very friendly in the usage of memory!
· and more
Limitations:
· You can try this application, as long as you like. No restriction in the range of functions. After a while, there will be a short text in the background, when UltimateLaunch is not yet activated.
Requirements:
· Windows Mobile 5/6

You can just normally post. I saved many spots in the beginning of this thread so it wont be a big mess.
Also as it grows I will always put the post numbers next to a particular application or fix so when people read they can get all info from the first page so you don't have to read the whole thread to solve an already solved problem or read about an application.
Cooking your Splash Screen
Once again many thanks to all who helped me papamopps who is a great teacher and will have you laughing as he teaches. I am sure all his students love him for his humor. And it was his idea for me to start this whole thread here. zcink who always quietly finds his solution and will always share. Dutty for his wonderful nbhtool as his work is legendary already. Dark Simpson for his htc rom tool. And all the others who helped me learn and the noobs who got me searching for answers.
And last but surely not least ivanmmj Who started this thread and brought this to our attention. Also ttran001 who wrote the original how to, all I am doing is making it easier for people to use and supplying all the files.
"DOWNLOAD"
I have included a folder named "PURESKILLZZZ Splash Screen" for you to test before doing anything at all. This folder is my splash screen that I created and tested on a t-mobile wing. I have also included my image file that I used in-case you just want to go through the process before you create your won.
1.) Download all files needed. ( I made 1 download for everything. )
2.) get the picture you want to use for your splash screen.
3.) Copy the image you would like to use into the image folder.
4.) Open up the Step 1 folder and run the Replace SplashScreen.exe file.
5.) Click on Load Bitmap from the newly opened menu (Replace Artemis SPlashScreen.
6.) Click on the Update Splash button.
7.) The PDA Phone ROM Update Utility 3.0.3.1 menu will pop up. Leave it alone.
8.) Go back to the image folder for step 1 and locate the RUU_signed.nbh file.
9.) Copy the RUU_singed.nbh and place it into the RUU_signed folder.
10.) Go back and close out both PDA Phone ROM Update Utility 3.0.3.1 and Replace Artemis SplashScreen.
11.) Now go to the step 2 folder and double click on the nbhtool.exe.
12.) This will open up Dutty's good NBH tool v1.1.
13.) Click on the Decompile NBH file button.
14.) Browse back to the RUU_singed folder and locate the new RUU_signed.nbh file.
15.) Choose the same location or the one of your choosing to save the extract files.
16.) Once completed it will extract a new file called PrimarySplash.nb, this is your new Splash replacement file.
17.) OK now goto folder step 3.
18.) Open htcrt.exe file ( this is the HTC_ROM_Tool. )
19.) The htc rom tool screen will popup.
20.) Click on the Build! button.
21.) On this screen click on the box under the Device: to select your device type.
22.) Choose Herald
23.) Type in your version of the rom, example: 4.10.0002. (Thats what I used)
24.) Click on the box Splash 1 to choose your PrimarySplash.nb file
25.) Click on the Build ROM botton.
26.) The save to screen will open
27.) Save "ruu_signed" in the folder "step 4"
28.) OK ... Now we have a nbh file in the folder ready to flash
29.) Goto folder step 4 where you can flash your splash screen.
30.) Any questions just ask........
Will love to try it out, Thanks

My Setttings -> Device Information -> shows ROM version as 4.17.405.2 WWE
what should I be entering?
Previously, when my device was a boxed-product it used to display the IPL, SPL on booting up, but after upgrading using the help found here, it only shows me the htc screen and I can only check the IPL/SPL if I go to the boot loader mode. The htcrom tool shows some options on the right side. Would entering the values there provide the values for IPL/SPL on booting?
How do I select the PrimarySplash.nb file? There is no selection box available. N checkin again, I see that nothing can be edited in the boxes on the right.
EDIT: Didn't realize that those were buttons next to the text boxes, so the 3rd question is answered. The first 2 remain...

The screen worked. I now have a startup screen of Optimus Prime . The IPL/SPL however was also asking for nb files, dosen't allow to enter the values directly, so I havent tried that out. If you have an idea, do let me know.
n thanks a lot for the instructions...

It should now work anytime on any rom because I have add a autocreating key on cab installer
New version 20080813 available
Up for new version !
its working on all lang roms ?
I hope so
I have test it on this rom :
Diamond Project 3.2
Swift BL 5.6
beLite v0.97, v0.98
The last version should work better because I have set more global option on powersaving.
I hope TF3D continue to work after (they crash if they don't found a key)
Just try it, they only add option to tf3d custom config tools
If tf3d won't start after that, just remove it and tell me, I will try to investigate
well i installed .. looks like its working fine .. i will test it a bit
Greek original rom 1.93
Testing this now, thanks!
I have used your tutorial to flash my device a couple of days ago and all went smooth!
Works 100% @ swedish 1.93 stock rom Thanks! Great addon!
Thanks ! Hope can help !
300 french people come per day on my blog actually ! Awesome !
HI i have Swift BL 5.0 and TF3D Config 0.6.7 and i didn't see any new tweaks
i have installed first the TF3D config and then your cab, but no new tweaks, i have tried a soft reset to, but same issue.
am i doing anything wrong??
Ok, when you install TF3D they ask you where
say for example Main Memory
You have to do the same think for my cab, cause I use the same directory of installation
So .. After new tweak appear in gray
Here the pic of the result :

I have same problem, I can see new tweaks.
At the begin I install cab to internal memory and after TF3D Config start fails. Now I have install in main memory and TF3D Config start but not ant new tweaks in gray appear...
"I have same problem, I can see new tweaks." => same prob but you can see new tweaks ? you can or you can't ???
ok
If you install TF3D after my cab, it's normal that you don't see anythink, because it remove is directory and redo the install .. so lose my tweak
Ok,
uninstall my cab
uninstall TF3D
install again TF3D
install my cab
if TF3D crash is because some trick on my cab aren't available for your phone.
Could you please give me the ROM version and the phone you use ?

Sorry, I can not.
TF3D was already installed, so I have done in same way you say.
My rom is 1.93 in Spanish
after that, did TF3D run properly or crash ?
could you go in Tweak and go at the bottom of the list.
Did the list change from white background to grey background ?
ok, just check this
Open Explorer,
Go in My Device/Program Files/Diamond TF3D Config
Did you see tweaks_custom file ?
Great thanx dude

I need some help...
- Have installed TF3D Config. Working fine. "Internal memory".
- Have installed celogeek_tweak. "Internal memory" as well.
But no new tweaks appear in TF3D Config?
I have checked:
In My Device/Program Files/Diamond TF3D Config
I see two things: Diamond TF3D config program file & "tweaks" (3.28K) file.
But i dont see "tweaks_custom" file...
It's strange ...
Could you try the older version ? same problem ?
I will push the tweaks_custom file for people who can't install the cab file
Same problem with the older version of "celogeek".
I have found the "tweak_custom" file in program files in internal storage; program files; diamond tf3d.
But tf3d files are in my device, program files... eventhough I have choosen to install them both in internal storage.
Have tried to uninstall and install to the internal storage again. - Same issue.
I don't really know why they don't work
By the way, look the first post, and try the manual solution
Hope they work now
No... does´nt work.
I get this error message

An app to increase the sound of the Diamond?

is there's an app which it increase the sound of the Diamond like
SRS WOW on HTC Touch (( i had one before )) and it was fantastic
i wonder what is the solution to the diamond .. it will be so good to have the sound increased ..
thank you
Although I havent tried this yet.. there is a registry edit to allow the audio booster app that comes with the unit to work without the need of a headset.
Do a quick search, youll find it.
hello shtewps
i did what you said but when i soft reset i must do it all over again .. also it didnt effect on the sound when i enabled it from the handset
any solution ??
here the solution...
go to:
http://ficca.bounceme.net/download/
and download/install MortScript41.cab (it's like a batch executer, very useful)
then the two tweak files: tweakP.mscr and tweakB.mscr
the 1st one is for "permanent" tweaks, before copying into your mobile just edit it with notepad and look inside to fit your needs, then copy both files in your mobile, where you prefer, but both files must be in the same directory, then run tweakP.mscr this will apply permanent tweak and will copy tweakB.mscr into your StartUp dir (\Windows\StartUp).
the 2nd tweakB.mscr is for "boot" tweaks, enable audio booster and enable hide sim contacts, if the file is under \Windows\StartUp the tweaks will executed every re-boot.

hello suiller,,
i did all what u wrote im not sure if i did it right but now it locks after my phone wakes up .. i dont like this feature .. how to disable it ??
also im new at this how to edit tweakP.mscr to know what i want to disable and enable ??!
((before copying into your mobile just edit it with notepad and look inside to fit your needs))
i couldnt finish this step cuz i dono what to do when i open it with the note pad..
plz tell me what to do...
don't worry my friend, I've re-uploaded a version without autolock feature, just download tweakP2.mscr
anyway to fit your needs just open that file from your PC with notepad, uncomment (by getting off the #) the line below "RESTORE default setting"
for ex to enable settings:
### AUTOLOCK WHEN SCREEN GOES OFF (NOT BLUR) ###
## ENABLE tweak setting
RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockEnable",1)
## RESTORE default setting
#RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockEnable",0)
### AUTOLOCK TIMEOUT ###
RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockTimeout",30)
## RESTORE default setting
#RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockTimeout",5)
and this instead will revert to default behaviour:
### AUTOLOCK WHEN SCREEN GOES OFF (NOT BLUR) ###
## ENABLE tweak setting
#RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockEnable",1)
## RESTORE default setting
RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockEnable",0)
### AUTOLOCK TIMEOUT ###
#RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockTimeout",30)
## RESTORE default setting
RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\ControlPanel\BackLight","AutoDeviceLockTimeout",5)
tell me if you are still in trouble, I prefer the 1st setting to avoid auto-answer while the phone is in my pocket
bye,
davide

waiting for reply
hi friend,
tweakP means Permanent so that script must executed just one time, for ex after you've just flashed a new rom
the second one, tweakB, means Boot, you have to copy just this script under "\Windows\StartUp" directory and it will enable the 2 tweaks needed to be executed every boot (enabling audio booster without headset + hide sim contacts)
the "boot" tweak doesn't give any kind of output, it is silent, anyway as you can read inside it... it will be executed after 1 minute because we have to wait that Flow3D has completed to load
I'm still investigating for collecting other "easy" tweaks... until now I have just these
bye,
davide
thank you very much suiller...
at least from this thread i learned about tweaks..
at last .. everything now is ok and happy with it
but i dont know whats going on with the tweak to enable Facing down the fone to mute the ring .. its not working do u know whats going on or do i post a thread about it
i read what you posted here but i cannot find anywhere tweakp.mscr and tweakb.mscr i followed the link you posted but is not good, it goes on another site, pls help

greek or symbol system font

I've searched for this topic but came up empty.
Some system files, Align Screen for example, comes up with Greek letters in the title but English instructions. I have run Kaiser Tweak and Advanced Config at different times, but I don't see any utility to change the system font.
Any ideas?

This is a wery weak post, you dont include any needed information as ROM, phone, installed apps and so on. To try answer this blindly you can goto my cab corner and grab one of the font cabs I made and see if that solves it for you.
