Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool - Recommended

Hi all.
There is a 47 page thread on this tool but I thought I'd start a new one as it seems to be such a useful tool that newcomers could benefit from, and being here it will hopefully be easier to find!
I've used Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool to:
1. Remove sim contacts from contact view (so no duplicates)
2. Turn down the volume of the starting up wav (so you can reset at work or at 1am in the morning when your partner is asleep!).
3. It works with my Windows Mobile 6.1 (HTcustom doesn't)
4. It is a .cab file (on your desktop it will appear as a ".zip" icon). All you have to do is save it to your desktop, copy it to your device (storage card will do), then tap it and install it on your device.
The link is on at the bottom of page 1 of this thread by Schaps himself:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070
Scroll through the 47 pages on that thread and you will find other language versions that other users have offered.
There are many options available that I do NOT know how to use or benefit from,
so if any experienced users have any tips on how to get the most out of this tool,
your reply to this thread would be most appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Mattster.

Strange... No replies to this thread? No great settings to recommend, no change-of-life testimonials after the first use of the app?
Just installed it and went for first settings change. Let's see if my HTC Pro shall still live after I restart...

cool stuff, gonna try it out now
thanks dude!

I reckon the quietness is because people seem to only leave threads when they are unhappy about something or have a problem!! This tool is very useful. A light version is built into many ROMS these days, but this one has a few extras.
I use it on any ROM to:
1. Increase the width of the vertical scroll bar. My phone is in a leather case, so the extra width makes it much easier when using the stylus.
2. Change the default storage location for photos taken with the camera.
Hope it helps you too!

6.1 T-Mobile Edition, Bug Discussion (NO POSTING PLEASE)

Well If you enterd this thread, You probley figured out that we have a 6.1 T-mobile edition rom thanks to ND4SPD. How ever at the moment it is limited to a small group to test. At the same time I hate using the PM system when multiple ppl are testing anything. So I made a thread were WE (the TESTERS) can discuss and post fixes for this rom so we can get it released to you (THE PUBLIC) soon. I ask please, PLEASE, Do Not Post in this thread UNLESS you actually recieved the test rom from nd4spd. When a nonsence post is posted it makes it harder for us to concentrate on working on the rom when we are answering your questions.
#1 Question to be posted in this thread is...
Q. WHEN IS THIS ROM GONNA BE OUT ????????
A. AFTER WE FIX BUGS AND ND4SPD FEELS ITS READY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
##############################
On to the post.
What I have found so far..
1. HOME Messages Tab crashes NEO when enabled.
Installing my cab of 4.0 Arcsoft mms did not help this problem.
2. HOME My Faves App does not work, but My Faves settings will run.
I have not tryed to fix this.
3. HOME Notification Tab does not open the text its notifing you of nor does it dismiss the text by pressing dismiss
I have not tried to fix this
4. HOME Wap Shortcuts cannot find winwap or one of its components.
I think adding regisrty values for clinks instead of using the guid will fix this.
5. HOME Settings tab doesnt include battery display
Figured out why but dont have a fix. Im missing HKCR
6. Start Menu Recent Programs includes 2 shortcuts that do not work (Instant Messaging.lnk and Task Manager)
In conveinence untill you open 9 programs to get these off recent programs. These programs work when using the shortcuts in "all programs"
7. PIE Favorites & History when clicked open file explorer. instead of drop down menu.
I havnt looked into this. How ever ive had the problem before and its usually the html file being used.
8. WAP BROWSER says my homepage is unavalible (but the default t-mobile rom told me this as well)
I dont know if this is just my phone, Feedback needed.
9. UNLOCK SCREEN still does not show clock and date when set to
Seems like we are going to have alot of fun with this one.
10. HOME Getting Started is not displayed.
Simple menu added to the registry for neo will fix this.
11. PHONE Can not initiate call by dialing number and hitting send key. (have to hit center button on D-Pad)
I have no clue were to start looking on this one.
12. MMS Does not work
SMS Works fine.
--
I have not tested WIFI or BLUETOOTH
ND4SPD said neo is looking for arcsoft 4 but arcsoft 5 is on this rom wich is why the message tab isnt on the neo homescreen.

5. HOME Settings tab doesnt include battery display
The battery in the settings tab is not showing up due to the ID in the registry {634CA962-22D8-4671-BBC7-BAC47148A4B6}, When its switched to the wifi ID wifi status shows up on line 2 but the battery is displayed in the settings tab and opens power.exe when clicked. But when switched back to {634CA962-22D8-4671-BBC7-BAC47148A4B6} the battery display dissapears.

7. PIE Favorites & History when clicked open file explorer. instead of drop down menu.
The html coding is causing the favorites and history drop downs from displaying correctly. This reg edit will fix this issue simply by using the default windows mobile homepage. wich is the same page but not skinned by t-mobile
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs]
"version_0409"="[URL="file://windows//default_0409.htm"]file://\\windows\\default_0409.htm[/URL]"
"home_0409"="[URL="file://windows//default_0409.htm"]file://\\windows\\default_0409.htm[/URL]"

shadowmike one of the biggest problems I am having is it locks up on the home page and did you nodes win going in to
internet explorer and hitting favorites or history it brings you to the windows folder

I think there are two ways of solving the problems:
The Easy Way:
Just use the wm6 OEM files and use all wm6.1 SYS files except CHome and ConfettiCore
This will get a working rom quickly but the problems we have now will still be there if we try making separate organized packages for each software.
The Hard Way:
Fix all these bugs one by one until assured to work and only then post a public rom. This means that the rom will take a longer time to release.
I prefer the hard way, but am open to the easy solution. What do you guys think.
btw, thanks shadowmike for making this thread. PM'ing was pretty tedious

Explain lockup ? as in freeze. And how do you get it to freeze ? Are you switching home screens and when you try to get to homescreen you cant ? what apps are you running on the rom ?
and #7

it just freezes by scrolling down it .well as there is so many bugs I am running no apps and by lockup I mean the home screen freezes so you can't scroll it but you can go to start and to other app but the home screen stays locked till reboot are you having the same problem if not I will try to redownload it and reinstall it... nd4spd did you work the bugs out of the new way of installing from the T-Mobile rom if so I will give it a go and I would like to see a stabile T-Mobile wm6.1 rom with out neo first thin work on this but you are the cook not to say I would use it I like the clean wm6.1 I have......i would like to see UC (user customizable) 2.0 Capable in the clean rom

I have not had your "Freeze", however since the shadow is underpowered. when i switch homescreens if i dont hit end call or the home button before it starts to load the homescreen i have to restart. however this also happend in the official t-mobile rom.

Small bug I noticed is when you set your calendar view to default to month (say), it still only opens to agenda view.
Not quite sure what received from nd4spd means but with a few hacks this is a great rom.

It means he pm'ed a few ppl a link to a new 6.1 t-mobile NEO homescreen rom.
From what he told me it was not publicly released... so if he did not send you the link to this rom and you have it. somone leaked it... thats what it means. basicly. I dont want ppl that dont have this test rom to come in this thread and ask questions and make this thread 10 pages.

How is the process going Guys.

well i decided to come back and work on this again.
im currently installing the rom. simply because i want to use the portrait camera. and since it works flawlessly in this version. yeah.

Yea Mike, what I been wanting is the original T-Mobile screen back.

TF3D programs problem

Hi, I'm facing a stupid issue on TF3D when I go to slide the 9 icons up and down. Instead of having only two blocks of 9 icons each I have more + icons but if I try to add programs here they are not show and I still have the +...
If I go with a config tool I see the programs I have tried to set to the new positions, I can add and empty them put they still remain not shown in the TF3D.
Any help...

little ip
It is not a bad thing if only I will be able to put programs on the new born +

I experience exactly the Same. Which rom do you use? I Use Bepe 0.97

I'm with the latest Italian one...
1.93.408.3
I think it was someone of the tweak program I have installed but I don't know which one was...

I Can't find a solution...

Strange, its work for me, all items

You installed a tweak. If you search, you'll find out that you can display more than 18 shortcuts in your program list, but you can't assign anything to the new ones. I don't remember the thread, but it had the registry entries listed, so if you find it you can just delete them and all will be fine.

Hi all,
I had the same problem with SwiftBL 5.0 ROM, but I didn't install any tweak for extra shortcuts (I don't know if it was already considered in the ROM).
It disappeared when I installed v5.5 and v5.6 (I haven't installed v6.0 yet).
It was very annoying because the number of buttons kept growing until I gave up using the 'Programs' tab and started to use the programs shortcut in the start menu.
Regards,

problems with the TOM_DiamondProject_v3.3_FRE
TF3D doesn't work with this ROM. I cannot open it. I tried to reinstall it...

Ok, so I found the reg key thanks to pgriffith
"Navigate to ... HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLaun cher\n
n being the number of the button" ... "Remember the first one is 0 not 1, so top row 0-2, 2nd row 3-5 etc etc"
I have deleted all the ones above 17 and the useless "+" disappeared. Just one stay there, in fact I had 18, 19 and so on till 23 and now I found that I have one numbered 100.
Can anyone be so kind to check if the 100 is needed (default one ore something else) or if I can delete it and solve finally my problem?
Thank you in advance....

Nevermind, I deleted the 100 and now I have 18 full working box ( 0-17 ).
Seems that adding 18 doesnt work, I can't imagine why...
Nevertheless my problem is solved, thank you to every one!

Vytvorte v registru dalsi klice 18 ... 19 .... atd. a pro ty, kterym se to nechce delat (je to pakarna) tak TADY mate regfile, kterej vam prida na celekem 63. Pokud chcete jinej pocet jednoduse si soubor otevrete a editujte.

TF3D Program Tab Mystery!

I went to the program tab on TF3D and noticed that an extra row of blank spaces appeared out of nowhere. I didnt think it was that bad since I get an extra row. Unfortunately when I try add a new program, it stays blank and another row of blank icons appear! Anyone know how to get rid of this?

You can manage the icons/programs in the program tab with a freeware utility called "diamond TF3D Config" (you will find it here by using the search)

I know all about TF3d config. Im having problems with the amount of rows present in my programs tab. I cant use them and I cant remove them. I havent installed any programs lately and IDK wth I need to do to get rid of them. So far I have 12 rows of unusable [+] icons. TF3d Config does not manage this.

I have the same problem!!!
I now have an extra page (3x3 icons) of "add program" icons.
In tf3d config it shows the programs I wanted to add, which appear as add program.
And if I try to delete them the add icons still stay....
Does anyone know a solution?
Thanks

ditto... I randomly got the same problem about 2 days ago shorty after I installed the diamond config I think. I also installed the footprints cab and navipanel as well... and recently installed facebook chat and wfacebook.
maybe one of these new installs caused the issue?

Had the same problem too guys, it has nothing to do with the footprints cab or facebook chat, all you need to do are some very simple registry edits. I saw the solution a while back in this forum. Can't remember any more what the title of the thread was, but it solved my problem. Will try to find it and get back to you.
EDIT: Found it! Here you go: (credit goes to Rabangus)
Open the registry editor and go to:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
In there you should only have keys 0-17. Just delete any additional key you find there (i.e. key 18 and above), do a soft-reset and you're done
Hope this helps...
Peter

thnks this solved the problem.

yeah this happened to me a while ago and that solution worked

That's great and all but WHY did it happen in the first place?

Thats part of the mystery.

maybe u have installed xbodmod manilla HD and then u have unistalled.. that should give u some new entries in program tab..

Excellent post, this one had me confused as well but your solution took care of that.

Is there any way to make these extra buttons functional instead of deleting them?
I have the same problem - extra row of icons that I cannot assign to programs...

It happened to me just after I clicked on the FM Radio icon, I had just installed the TP2 icons which installed that icon but since my phone did not have an FM Radio it gave me a really weird error and that's when the icons showed up.

Bugs and fixes for TF3D (Landscape) centralize discussion

Since we don't have a common source of this new TF3D and every cooks have it's own implementation. I think it's better to centralize the bugs and fixes discussion to collects all the brain power/knowledge here to get this puppy stabilize.
Current base: TF3D2 from Topaz rom
Read the following rules before you filed a bug:
This thread is not about how to install TF3D and assume you got TF3D installed and working
This thread is intended to get TF3D working as what it should be. Go somewhere else for Mod/Customization, and how to do this and that.
Make sure you got Opera 9.5 installed as many features rely on it.
Read the existing list first before you file a new one.
Only report reproducible bug w/ details/steps to reproduce (Don't report any random crash/bug that you cannot even reproduce it)
You are welcome to report any existing bug that is not happening on you so that we could look into the diffs
Fixed Bug list (fixes in the attached zip file):
TF3D show HTC logo but won't start: Missing htcDutils.dll
Camera button don't start: Use the Camera package from Rhodium
"My contact card" in setting is not working / call history crash ..etc: Missing httpclient.dll
"Use Camera" in "Edit Contact Card" brings up video recording instead of picture taking: Set HD Camera Apps as the default camera apps.
"Sim card not ready" error for SMS message (call history > call entry > Messages tab): Missing CommManagerDll.dll
"Key Lock" status is not saved after soft-reset. Fixed w/ latest Rhodium packages (don't remember exactly which). Current workaround is change it in registry.
Existing bug list:
Sms reader tab can show only 25 messages (I cannot confirm it since I don't have that many SMS msg)
TF3D Panel is not working. PM Pubba already to see if he could help

bug in itje 4.0 beta 3

I don't have this issue. I bet it's the missing httpclient.dll

httpclient? Can you share this file? I have the same issues as itje in my rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486582
edit:thx, found by myself but it doesn´t work. I just copied it to the windows folder, let´s see if there´s a change by cooking it in but I think it won´t help. Maybe there´s a missing reg key or sth. like this.
@guap
What do you mean by swiping down? The contact pictures in TF3D? I don´t have this issue, only the issues in the call history tab.

But I have not yet found what cause the weather not to show up on calendar tab "today" tab
any one?

Hmm weather shows up in weather tab on my rom. Did you set your city in the clock settings area? I think thats what causes it to work

weather shows up in your B3 as well Itje.
It's set exactly as Bxsteez says, you have to change the location in the clock..

I can not get it to change to farenhiet though. Oh well something is better than nothing

Quick question on this. This is for the camera button in the pictures tab or the hardware camera button?

Yeah sorry I didn't even realise it was a problem that one, until I saw this thread as I was playing with it earlier on today, I presumed it was common knowledge.
BXsteez, I think that's for the camera button in the photos tab.

So the camera application is called camerarunner.exe and i should rename camera.exe to camerarunner.exe

What about this one? Do any of you encounter this or not?
Bxsteez, that's right. U can rename Skype.exe to camera.exe to have it called Skype instead in the Photo & Camera tab.

Ok cool. I have another little thing i want to do if someone can make me the cab.
If i'm reading the files in the keyboard package correctly we can actually edit how the keys are mapped and how hardware recognizes them. There is a file that is called et9.rhodium.wwe.kmap.txt that basically seperates each row of keys and tells u what happens when u press the funciton key. If someone still has the keyboard cab that was removed we can test out my theory.
**EDIT**
I found the cab and it looks like i was right. We might have a nice keyboard fix coming soon.
