Good morning. I've read many threads on PTT but things changed in 6.1 and would like to know the following. I’m new to this. I’ve been waiting for the PTT config that is in 6.1 but it allows you to change PTT to everything except what I want. I would like to have the PTT turn on wifi with one push and turn it off with push and hold.
I know there are reg edits for 6.0 but now in 6.1 button six shows up in (buttons and assign program). Is there a list of available programs to assign buttons to in the registry? If so would it now be easier to replace a link in the registry for one of the programs I wouldn't use with the link to turn on wifi found in wireless manager?
I’ve loaded PHM and was wondering if any of the registry editors work from the pc with the phone attached? Can you export the phone’s registry to a file, work on it on your pc and then import or restore it back to the phone. My eyes are getting sore.
Thanks
Frank
Try a pm to hang.tuah, http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=273310. He has it in his ROMeOS ROM. He is also very helpful and kind.
thank you for the link
I sent him my issue and await a response.
This may help
I found a way to get closer to using the PTT button to activate wifi. In 6.1 you’re given the option to assign programs to button 6, the PTT button. Unfortunately Comm. Manager and turn on wifi aren’t options that you can choose.
By messing around I discovered that you can use file explorer and scroll down in Windows until you see the comm. Manager icon. Copy this and go back up to file start menu. Paste Comm. Manager into the start menu. Comm Manager will now show up on the today screen. You can then go to settings, buttons and Comm Manager will now be an available option. You can now also use voice command (start Comm. Manager) While it doesn’t turn on wifi it does allow you to hit the old PTT button and then hit the wheel or ok, or use the voice command.

Can you easily turn the wifi, 3G, and GPRS radios on/off on the Kaiser or do you have to install a special program to be able to do that? Are there any good comm manager programs out there?
I have one from t-mobile uk and the comm manager that is installed on mine gives you
Flight Mode
Ability to switch phone off and on (without using flight mode)
Bluetooth
Wlan
Microsoft Direct Push
Data Connection
Ringer
Internet Sharing
and ActiveSync
all these can be switched on or off within the comm manager that comes bundled with it.
The gprs can be switched of simply by clicking the icon and it will give you an option to turn it off
Hope this helps
The Kaiser has a commanager, there just isn't a dedicated button for it like there is on other devices. You have to go in to programs in the start menu and click on Comm Manager to activate it.
As you get comfortable with installing cabs and editing the registry, you can get a different comm manager. I use Schen's 10 button comm manager which does have seperate 3G and connection break buttons. Read and learn, this site is the best!
I sucessfully installed PTTFIX and modified the registry as instructed. I am using AE Button Plus to assign the buttons. I discover that the touch menu above the right softkey that is supposed to be "contacts" now will not work when pressed with the stylus although the right softkey itself works fine. Instead when pressed it gives an error message that states "Rightsoftkey.exe" "rightsoftkey will not execute, reinstall file or certificate is invalid." Any ideas how I can correct this? Where do you find the files right or left softkey, as when doing a search for them they were not showing up? Also the leftsoftkey and touch menu works ok.
SPB Shell
I found that the SPB Shell software provided the solution. It allows me to assign the onscreen softkey functions as well as giving me a host of opther benefits such as a much more efficient today screen, Some functions are not working with the tilt due to mobile 6. The company states that a update is due out to fix these problems.
Can someone attach this or point me in the direction to the download?
Or anything like this would be great! (Preferably with these buttons)
I think that is also called "duttythroy 3g comm manager (working).cab"?! cos this is what I installed on my TyTN and the comm mgr looks the same.
I also think that CAB is available via this forum.
Comm Manager
I installed this and now my comm manager is comletley screwed it only shows 1 icon the active sync icon I uninstalled it and it was stil lthe same it even screwed up the HTC home ! Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this ?
Try Schap's Advanced Configuration tool. Allows you to control the buttons on your Comm Manager. Available here via search.
Same Issue When using Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool... if any button is increased it only shows one button (ACTIVE SYNC) Button
Try going into task manager & stopping the comm manager first. Make sur it's not running as a process.
Then try this: http://rapidshare.com/files/42771601/JUVS_HTC_CommManager_Kaizer_Fix.cab (Standard)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44284&d=1184759208 (+3G Button)
After installing, but before launching it, Use the Configuration tool to make sure it shows everything, then reset & launch the comm manager.
Did you guys soft reset... that's probably the problem. If you guys did, then I advise uninstalling the Comm manager, soft reset, then installing it, then soft reset again.
BTW, that's the best comm manager I have ever used, it still lets you use the Wifi turn on and off button ony our keyboard.
I use this version of Schen's 10 button manager on my Kaiser. There is one reg setting needed to fix the wi-fi power key;
Fix WLAN Key function in Comm Manager
You can fix wifi with this registry setting :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN
[Default]=”\Windows\WLanMgr.exe"
[DeviceName]="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\TNETW12511"

Which one?
I've just tried this, and I get the new 3G button appearing in the comms panel (with the word 3G underneath, but no icon showing) but it doesn't seem to do anything - should it? I'm running the stock T-mobile Vario III ROM at present.
Oh, and talking of that Wi-Fi on/off function on the keyboard, does anyone know if that, and the 'open folder' key (Fn+RightArrow), can be reassigned? The Wi-Fi one might be handier to use as a Bluetooth on/off function for me, and the 'open folder' key calls File Explorer by default but I'd prefer it to call Total Commander if possible.

Comm Manager 10 - 3G issue/question
I loaded this version, fixed the WiFi registry entry and all worked. After turning off 3G, my phone still functioned. After turning ON 3G, my phone failed to connect and showed no service (due to the fact that I am out of a 3G zone). It appears that this forces 3G mode when it should force AUTO imho. A load of a Version 2.4.3 Band Switch allowed Auto to be re-enabled. See latest Band Switch posts at http://www.ipmart-forum.com/

I do see the same thing with the 3G switch, it's 3G or nothing where it should be "Auto". I too added "Bandswitch" 2.4.3, now a commercial app, and find it good as a enhanced comm manager.

Okay so I've gotten pretty spoiled now with the voice command on our phones. The one thing I REALLY wish I could do was turn the bluetooth on and off without having to go through all the work to get to the communications manager..(settings tab,then com manager, then bluetooth on or off... then closing it all down)
Is there something out there that is a direct short cut? I little .exe that will either turn bluetooth on if it was run or off if its run again? If not anyone with some skills want to make this happen? That would allow a quick shortcut in our applications tab AND for those of us who use voice command a quick way to turn bluetooth on and off. All we'd have to say is "Start bluetooth" or something. Best I've been able to do is say "Start bluetooth explorer" and it opens the bluetooth explorer...which yes works but I dont want that damn thing to open up AND I cant turn it off that way either.
If there is something out there similar to this I cant find it so maybe post it in this thread.
Thanks everyone!
BTonoff.exe
This is a little .exe that I found here on xda, so don't give me any credit. I looked and cannot for the life of me remember where I found this, so if whoever created sees this, I apologize for not giving credit.
Just put this unzipped .exe in the windows/start menu/programs folder and it will list as a program. You can then link the PTT button if you have a fuze, or to another quick launch program if that is what you are looking to do. I have mine set as an icon on the program launcher, and just click once and turns on BT, click again and turns it off.
If this is what you are looking for you can change from AP Request to AP Found.
This is a link to a cab file that I use called BT Toggle. The CAB file has "EkerB" in the name so I am guessing that is who the credit needs to go to. However I have been unable to find the original link back to the application announcement.

Installs like any other cab file and has worked flawlessly for me. I have my left softkey set to run it.
Here you go. I think,this exefile is made by BuzzLightyear(thank you). You need to write a pareter to commandline(or shortcut) "bsd" to toggle discoverable/off mode. It can also do some different modes using different parameters(which I don't know now).
You can also use this little app and set it to one of your soft keys. I have it seft to my left soft key and it works flawless.

Hi,
I'm looking for a cab that will enable toggling ON/OFF the 3G function.
I'm aware that there are comm managers that do that, but I'm looking for a cab that does only that, just like GPSTOGGLE does for the GPS
Thanks.

What is the difference between what you want and assigning comm manager to # 6 button ( as abusalza does ) and toggling on/off. How much faster do you think a .cab switch is going to do it ?
I just want an ON/OFF function for the 3G, w/o having to pull up the comm manager.
The solution you suggested does not do that.
Further, I can just add a widget to the Today screen in SPB Sell 3 and have exactly the same result....
Try the GPS TOGGLE cab and see the difference.
It's not about speed at all, just "single functionality".
Somebody pointed me to the following solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2145594&postcount=371
How can I adapt this to the Tilt? (specifically, I have a \Program Files\Mortscript directory, but what do I do regarding the "vjvolubilis" part?)
Thanks.

Great idea! I would like to have such button on the screen too! But I think there will be need the soft reset to toggle it..

I have another one also based on Mortscript & another Vijay555's small stuff called VJOkButt, check my post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3726097&postcount=11171
I'll update that post later on to cover 'How to map the script to a hardware button?'
Basically what you need to do is:
1.Have Mortscript installed.
2.Copy the required VJ app and other stuff (if any, called by the script) to the folder that is described in the .mscr file.
3.Copy the .mscr file to anywhere on your device, AFTER THAT creat a shotcut for the script into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ folder or its subfolder that you prefered.
4. Then the script will show up in start menu and you can map it into a hardware button from Start >> Settings >> Personal >> Button, or use a button customization software like HButton. Also you can use the shortcut in SPB MS.
Please keep an eye on my abovementioned post, I'll provide more information later on.
Two words:
Nevermind. Wrong solution.
