Hi guys, I am having some little problems with my Xda2i as following.
1. I use button lock to stop using the camera button (as I always accidentally touch it then camera starts, many time I open camera without notice for long time till my battery almost gone!!) Every time I soft reset, it always turn to defalut mode.
2. Also the same happen with "today". I show some items such as Worldmate. When soft reset, it disappears (though I ticked to show it always)
3. Favorites network also the same, ticked it then changed after reset.
Could anybody please help me?.
Many many thanks in advance..
do what i have done removed the camera from my start up prgrams and allocated the button to none that way it can't activate
as for the others i'm not to sure ,i'm sure some1 else will be able to help
Sounds like somehow the registry has become read only. Have a look in the startup folder and see if there any programs in there that shouldn't be running. Also has this started after some program has been installed?
Hi Pug, checked my startup and found below program lists
-camera_detect
-checkautorun
-clear_notify
-IA_CID_start
-PHM Traylaunch
-PhotocontactPro
-Pocketnavy
-poutlook
-RunBT
-spb GPRS monitor
-STK
It seems like you doubt, it happens after program installation.
Any more advice?
Many many thanks
I don't doubt you at all, just trying to help you solve this.
PHM hasn't got a registry restore feature has it? If it has try disabling it. I don't use it so I don't know.
Don't know what that Pocket Navy is so can't comment on that.
If you delete Camera_Detect you can assign the camera button to something else if you want and the button assignment will survive a soft reset.
Sorry for my aweful english, Pug.
This problem wa before PHM installed, it should be ok (anyway I am not knowledgable to know if it has registry or not. I am too new hands)
Pocketnavy is "CloseAll" I like it more because it has window to see running programs and can select to close which one. THe most important is it free.
I will try to fix it as you recommend. Very appreciated your time to help.
Thanks again
My TyTN II has no "tick" sound when I activate a menu and "tock" sound when I select an item in the menu like other PPC phones, is this normal? I've enabled the event and program notification sounds but still I don't get those sounds.
Also I can't seem to change the other notification sounds (example the sound when the device needs you to confirm an action, when the device encounter error, etc.) by replacing the wav files in windows directory like other PPC phone. Can anyone help?

I can't use voice dialer when S2U2 locks phone, is there a way around this? I like the S2U2 application, but when I am driving and need to make a phone call via bluetooth handfree I can't, because s2u2 block the voice dialer.
I did look for a solutions via the search engine and in the s2u2 thread, but no luck thus far.
which device?
which ROM?
which voice dial app?

Thanks for your response,
HTC 8925 (Tilt)
Dutty's Touch AT&t beta 2
Cyberon Voice Speed Dial V1.2 build 070626
The newest version of S2U2 v0.95 offers a solution to this problem by adding the ability to use exceptions to temporarily disable S2U2.
1) Install the new version.
2) Run iLock2 to close the application.
3) Use a registry editor:
Under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2, find an open ExceptionEXE(0-9) (STRING). I used ExceptionEXE3. Enter the value: "SDDialer.exe" (this is the application that runs when you press the button on your bluetooth headset).
4) Run iLock2 to restart the application and you're done.
Thanks to tompol for discovering this solution. I first tried it by entering the value: "Voice Speed Dial.lnk", but this didn't work.
Hello,
i have another problem with S2U2 on my Kaizer, and i think i created it but cannot get through it. After i did some changes on the S2U2 settings now every time the lock goes on and even if i open the settings i get a black screen and can not do anything. If i press the power on button to turn off the screen and then on, i get the S2U2 screen but frozen, with out any animation! I have tried to remove and re-install the application but i get the same response from the program. Could someone give me some help, because i really like the application but can not use it...
TIA,
Nikos.

did you turn on the directdraw option or safe mode option?
When you uninstall an app, it leaves behind the registry entries. As soon as you reinstall the app, those settings are in affecct again. Uninstall the app, use a registry editor to remove the following key, soft reset, then try to reinstall:
The key to remove is HKCU\Software\A_C
Ok, I had the exact same problem, the problem is indeed with D3D option, you need to disable it. As soon as it is off and the settings are saved, the program works fine once again, and smoother then previous version.
This part is gonna be hard to explain... but here it goes...
First thing to do is run ilock so that when u turn the screen off it doesn't start S2U2.
When you open the settings the screen freezes, like the kaiser crashed, but if you move down and you turn the screen off and on, you'll see the menu scrolled down.
Basically that means u're working blind, changes do occur but u can't see, so the process is to move it down, turning the screen off and on sistematically until u see the d3d option and turn it off, then save it.
Hope I explained myself enough.
Takes some work, but doesn't require registry tweaking and other settings are kept.
Keep posted on results.
Cheers, Esko

Thank you both for your fast and details replies!!!
It was indeed the direstdraw option. It was easier for me to try eskostar's method, especially since i had tried the same blind procedure but i did not figure the trick with running the ilock first!!!
Everything worked out great!!! Now i can use this excellent program again!!!
Thank you again!!!
Cheers, Nikos
I have this problem. When I start S2U2 and miss call screen remains as it is when someone call (caller's number and slide to answer or two buttons with green and red phone). Whatever I push or click nothing happens. So I must softreset or turn off and on my Kaiser. Some tips?
Sorry I dont have that issue. However my problem with this version of S2U2 is when SLide to Answer is Active you can still use the Hardware Keys to answer!
Anyone no how to deactivate the Hardware keys during Slide to Answer?

if any of the apps in the exception list are running, not just in the foreground, even if they are running in the background, then [email protected] will not enable. Check your exception list, make sure none of those apps are currently running, then try again. If you still have issues after that, then it's with S2U2, not the exception list.

Very well done.
Apparently Internet Explorer was still running, and as soon as I closed that it ticked off. May consider removing that key, as I don't see why I would need it.
Thanks.

Good deal, glad it worked for you....
when I install S2U2 (i go thru phases where I want it, then phases of "get it off my Tilt") the first thing I do is remove the exception for PIE.
FYI.... Likewise, if you run any of the Cube or TouchFlo variants out there, you will need to put an exception into the TouchFlo settings for S2U2. What happens if you don't is when you try to slide to unlock (or slide to answer) you end up invoking the Cube or TouchFlo, instead of S2U2. Just an FYI for you....
Thanks for the tip. Am still looking into wicked programs so far, only had it two weeks and it's already been through the mod ringer.

that's the way to do it. I've been using PPC devices for years and years and everytime I get a new one, I try every hack, reg edit, tweak, and app possible.
Why is the HTC Dialer very very slow. When i press a number, it takes time to show on the screen. So, i cant dial a number quickly. I need to press every digit individually and wait till it shows on the screen.
Is this normal??
HELP
Hmz dunno, don't have this problem.
Turn the sounds off in the options menu in the Phone application. Set the Keypad to 'Off' and it will speed up. No sounds but much quicker!

Disabling the smart dialing option increases the speed too (especially when you have many contacts stored).
open dialer -> menu -> smart dialing options -> deactivate
Greetz,
Hans Olo
It did speed up my dialer, but still not upto the mark. Isnt there a way to make it even more faster?

Hi:
FWIW, my HTC keypad is very fast. I have both smart dialing and sounds turned on. Maybe you could try a hard reset. Is it possible that something you have installed is somehow affecting the dialers speed?
Hi dudes
I had the same problem but using your tweaks, especially disabling keypad sound, solved it. Thx
Ciao
i have same problem
but when disable sound
still slow
for those of you haveing issues still, did you ever install Vibra? Vibra was an app that allowed the user to quickly change to vibrate but use of a hardware key.
If so, this is the problem, it messes up all the sound settings which in turn causes issues with the dialer response times...
You can also try to disable the dialer theme:
[HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin]
Enabled = 0
Disabling sound solved the issue on my TyTNII, ,even with a quite huge contact database.
Thanks!

I had that problem, and that pesky program does not fix the registry even when you uninstall it. Luckily I had old registry backup and was able to look up the lines it messed with, and recover.
Gotta hate when little cabs like that can break your phone in such a bad way.
Lesson learned - always run registry backup before installing 3rd party apps and even Sprite Backup.
Hi,
I'm having this problem: At home I work with WLAN all the time, so WLAN is enabled. Later, when I take my Xda Diamond as navigation device (with TomTom), whenever I pass a hotspot or private WLAN, a dialog box pops up and a nasty sound plays, telling me that WLAN networks are found and asking to connect. I simply want to avoid that dialog. Is it possible to tell the Diamond to ONLY connect to known WLAN networks (the one at home) and to be quiet if any other network is in range?
Sure, I could simply turn off WLAN whenever I leave home, but often I forget that, and I don't want to fiddle with the settings while driving...
Thanks!
you can turn off the notification when a new network is detected. just look in settings>sounds & notifications.
Dave, exactly what I was looking for! I just missed the point that you can change more than the standard ring tone here... Thanks!
Try This
If your still having problems, try this.
Here is a program i made that fixes this problem for the HTC touch pro, let me know if it works on your device.
On my device at least, after I disable the notifications they come back automatically every time I soft reset. This will fix that issue

You were right, after soft reset the notifications came back. Actually I solved that by setting a registry key in a MortScript:
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "ControlPanel\Notifications\{DDBD3B44-80B0-4b24-9DC4-839FEA6E559E}", "Options", 0 )
I guess your *.exe does the same?

Interesting... how do you launch the script? Do you put a shortcut to it in the startup folder?

Exactly. After installing MortScript, it's enough to put a shortcut to my init.mscr script into the \windows\AutoStart folder.
Yep, that's all my program is doing.
