Diamond 2 Configuration questions - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there, kinda new and this is my first windows mobile phone so I am kinda new on this and this is also my first HTC. Got a few questions, hopefully anyone can spare some thoughts or solution on my questions.
1. From Settings > Communications > Phone; under the header [PIN/PIN2]. What is the PIN CODE? I looked into the manual and couldnt find it. So I only have 1 attempt left....
I tried Settings > All Settings > Personal Tab> Lock; and setup my own password for this already but doesnt seem to correspond with the PIN above.
Are the both the same thing or different functions?
2. Settings > All Settings > Personal Tab> Buttons; Seems the only option is Button 1 in the box and no other options? I am trying to figure out how to add or use another button like the holding the call button to silence/vibrate the phone.
Hope anyone can shed a light on this. Device is still new and there might more silly questions I have. gawd.
Cheers!

The PIN CODE is the password you need to type in when you startup yout phone(actually its the password to read your simcard)..
When you bought your SIM card you got a PIN, PIN2, PUK and PUK2 code..

thx for the info, but I guess i try once I get a new sim.
I rmb ppl mention there is the Magic 8 Ball on diamond 2 but I dont see it. Any clarification on this?

Answer to question 2: you can configure a lot more button actions, but you will need software like AE button plus for that.

Reassign the side OK button on Tilt?

Hi,
I've successfully re-mapped the PTT button by following the instructions from this forum. I imagine the same procedure would apply to the small OK button immediately below the jog-wheel, but I don't know where to start. Of course, the button is not present in the Settings/Buttons applet - that would have been too easy.
First, how to disassociate it from its present function (Start Menu/OK)? And once disassociated, what is the button code to enter in the registry?
I tried aebplus, and it sort of works - but the start menu still comes up on the first keypress if invoked in the Today screen.
Any ideas on how to re-map this otherwise useless key?
Thanks,
Mike.

Did you even read the thread? None of the links you posted had instructions/advice on how to remap the side "ok" button.

yes i was about to say. non of them have steps or even telling you anything related to how to get it.
all it says is people trying it matter and they failed.
if there was no solutiion you should have just said no solution, it would have saved you time searching all that and also us bashing you
the 4th link does have some good information, lemme just quote from it
Bellfazar said:
The side "ok" button is a tough one because it has multiple functions. In programs, explorer windows, and settings it acts as an OK button but when you're at the today screen it acts as a Start Menu button. I kinda get the feeling we're not going to be able to change this for a while. Not until someone releases a keymapper specifically for the Kaiser.

It's really easy with help of AE Button Plus.
You can pretty much map any hardware key on your device with this great app.
I have it setup to be able to copy and paste by using the sliding keyboard and pressing Window Key + C to copy and Window Key + V to paste among other cool shortcuts.
Cheers!

Thanks Rayan. I downloaded the AE Button Plus program for my AT&T Tilt, and it is working fantastic for remapping buttons. I was able to remap the side OK button to lock my phone by holding it for a few seconds. I love the way it also lets you leave the button with its default setting for one press, but create other actions for multiple presses.
By the way, the phone locking works fantastic. It allows me to answer calls, but doesn't activate any of the other phone functions until I unlock the phone. That's perfect for carrying the phone in my pocket. Also, incoming notifications don't unlock the phone, so that I won't accidentally turn-on a bunch of applications while the phone is in my pocket. The unlocking action is very simple.
I've also mapped volume up and down to a long press of the soft keys. That alleviates the need to use the stylus to select the volume button. Great.
The AE Button Plus program was what I've needed all along to customize my phone. It would've saved me a lot of time.
One other note, I downloaded the 2.6.3 version of the program, rather than the freeware version, but I haven't gotten any info on the cost. I may be disappointed in the near future if this program automatically deactivates. Do you know if I should expect a disappointment? I would pay for this program, but I'm not sure how much it's worth to me, but I saw no information on the cost. Do you know?
AFAIK there is only one version, if you want the registered version you buy a license and there's a procedure to activate it, otherwise it uses the free version with a couple features disabled and a nagscreen once in a while.

Right soft key

Hi i have a kaiser on Uk orange. the right soft key says 'Go To ...' ttry as i may i can not change it at all. i have tried FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx, Key swop, Advanced Config and even editing the registry at Hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\today\keys\113 (where they have two extra keys called 'mem1' and 'mem2'.) however whichever method i try the key always resets itself back to 'Go To'
Does anyone have any ideas how i can try and change it at all?
Cheers

Thats strange, I always use advanced config for that and its working like a charm.
if youur on orange chances are youve got that crappy side bar on. go to settingsstart - settings - today - go to the second tab laballed ITEMS then untick the orange item. when you go back to your today screen contacts should be on the right
Yeah that did it cant believe how long it has taken to find that out, however is there any way i can get the sidebar back (not necessarily that one but an alternate one) as its really useful to have that stuff on the screen.

I might whanna have a go skinning one if I come up whit a kewl idea though. I am working on a SPB Theme atm (well not now, vacation atm. But will continue that project once back home), after that I have planned to make a cab/guide whit a nice theme for ultimatelaunch. And I also have promised a icon pack and some animations and on top of that I am eager to get back and work whit Leo on future projects.

WebIS PocketInformant - Fullscreen trouble - Support Genius at work

Hey guys, just wanted to share my WebIS support experience with you
I bought WebIS PocketInformant some time ago, and now installed it on my Diamond. When you switch the software to full screen, the menu is gone, and its impossible to get it back even after a restart, or soft-reset.
I go on the web and search, check the manual, their support site and FAQ, but cannot find anything. The only things I found is that some of the buttons should switch it off, and a restart of the software, which is not the case on the diamond.
So since I was not able to switch off the full screen I send a support request to WebIS:
WM Hardware: HTC Diamond - WM6Professional
Desktop OS: Windows XP
Version: Pocket informant 8.02
Synch Software: ActiveSync 4.5
Issue:
Hi,
I am unable to turn off Full-screen mode in PI 8.02
None of the buttons in the front work (home, ok, red/green phone, 4 irections, OK)
Restarting (reset) of the device does not work either...

They answered quite quickly:
Greetings and thank you for contacting us.
This is actually a common question and as such we have created a knowledgebase article that goes into greater detail for your benefit.
Here is the knowledgebase link:

Strange. I thought I checked that one. I am going back there, and filter the search for PocketInformant and windows Mobile, and not one single question/Answer regarding the "Full Screen" mode.
So I write back:
Hi,
I have searched the knowledge base several times already before sending you this email but could not find any answer there.
I searched there for "screen" (13 answers, all something else) and browsed all the 40 Pocket informant Windows Mobil questions, but no help either.
Please be so kind to point me to the correct KB entry instead of the main page or simply tell me how to fix this via email.

And they reply, one day later:
Greetings and thank you for contacting us.
You've either hidden the tabs, or the left soft key assignment needs to be changed, FYI.

Ok, let's see.... I do not have that software button however. and I did not hide the tabs, I just clicked on "Full screen" in the menu. And where is that FAQ entry now?
So I write back:
Dear Customer service,
thank you for that information. It does not help me to fix the problem though.
How do I unhide the "tabs"?
The device does not have a left soft key.
http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=46278
Can you please show me a way how to fix this, such as a registry entry or maybe reinstalling the software?
I still could not find you FAQ entry. Does it exist??
thanks

This time, the answer takes two days to reach me:
Greetings and thank you for contacting us.
Did you try changing the left soft key assignment? That is the FAQ you need, FYI.
We appreciate having the opportunity to help and service you. Please let us know if there is anything more we can do.

So I go to the advanced search and filter for Pocket Informant, windows Mobile and search for "Soft key" - nothing.
I write back:
Did you read my last email?
I assume that with soft keys you talk about a blank hardware button that has its function assigned by the software?
My device does not have soft keys!
http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=46278
The device only has a home, return/exit , call, hang up and direction/OK keys.
Also, your FAQ does not say HOW to change that key in case it exists. You also do not mention which registry editor to use.
It does not mention the full screen issue in one word either, how is one supposed to find it?
This is one of the worst support cases I ever had.

Now, I get the following answer:
Greetings and thank you for contacting us.
Thanks for your email. Your question is best found in the product documentation that was installed with the software or found on our download site in PDF form.

Thank you.
We appreciate having the opportunity to help and service you. Please let us know if there is anything more we can do.

How is that supposed to help? Isn't that what I was asking for since the beginning? that they help me with the problem?
By now I did a hard reset and reinstalled the software.
Of course, I am not touching the full screen button again. And I am not contacting their support again for troubles either.
Clearly, the Diamond has a disadvantage in applications that rely on the soft buttons to work. There should be a tool to simulate the buttons with the volume buttons or else to fix that.
I've just had a look on their forum and this seems similar to your problem (and they recommend a reg edit solution)
see post 2 http://www.pocketinformant.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=12917
Hope this works for you
thanks for the help and pointing this out to me.
Maybe you could post back here if the reg edit works? It might help someone else with the same problem or considering whether to buy the application.
well... I fixed it before with a hard-reset and currently I do not plan to use the full screen anymore since only regedit can undo it, and thats simply too complicated. If I try it and it does not work, I have to hard-reset the device again.
But the thread you have from the WebIS the person had it fixed through it, so I assume it should work
I had this issue on my Touch Dual, using a hardware button (like camera) takes it out of fullscreen mode...
Their support was pretty useless for me also, I found the answer on another forum...
A solution for the Diamond is to assign your Send key (Button 1(hold)) as <Left Softkey>.
Yeah, our support guy has been a bit flaky lately. Honestly I think he just got tired of things after seven years. Must be why he resigned at the end of July. I'm sorry that that happened - though. Unfortunately it doesn't make real-world sense to use other buttons like volume control to get out of full screen mode. The Diamond is just not a good full screen mode device without some sort of gestures or other method to get out of it.
I'll definitely be looking for a way to add a button or something as a way to get out of full screen.
Reg edit
The regedit works on the Diamond.
I've exported the PI-registry, edited the "FullScreen"=dword:00000001
into "FullScreen"=dword:00000000
and imported the registry ==> problem solved

New X1 and problem

J bought new X1 from Vodafone
And j turn it on
And X1 want to get password?
But what is the password?
Somebody can help me?
sounds like someones been playing with it as they dont come with a password,
hard reset it (use the wiki to find this) or the search function
and please post in the relevant section, this is rom development
I like those answers if **** happens and than I am been told "use the search button" and poste it in the relavant section
Here is 1 hard reset sequenze for the X1 which should work in your case (also from this forum).
If it comes to the screen where it says that you must press some buttons you must slide out the hardware keyboard and use those buttons from the hardware keyboard (it takes me also a while to relize that because normaly you imagine that you just can use the the normale phone buttons)

About hard reset.
1. turn off the phone
2. Hold both right and left buttons (the ones right under the screen, dont know the name)
3. press power button, while still holding the others

It really depends on what password its prompting you for. A device lock password or maybe a Pin code? What is it? Are you using an old sim card from another device? Did it ever have a PIN code on it? A brand new device shouldn't be asking you for any type of passwords unless you tell it to.

really, weird that, after all there arent many forum rules, and they are the two most basic ones.
i told the poster to look in the wiki to find how to hard reset so that thewould know how to use the wiki, or even better learn to use the search feature.
im not certain why you seem to have decided that was wrong.

Thirteen "not obvious" questions about using X1i

Good afternoon!
I've tried to ask these question on other forums, but almost nobody gave me an answer. There were some about different software to use, but it didn't really help. So I would be very pleased if you, dear X1 gurus, answer these question. Please, if you know the answer - write it here for me and other people. Thank you very much in advance!
The priority is: I. How to solve the problem using native software or registry? II. If and only if the first is not possible, how to solve it using different software?
1. Where in file system the vocabulary of words which were inputted before is situated? It's a vocabulary with these tooltips-words while typing. Can I get it somewhere form my phone and backup or even edit?
2. How can I check my X1 uptime?
A: As yet I know only one way: use AEButton Plus. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
3. Someone called me from number +ХХХ, I want to call him back, BUT to add a zero between + and the first digit(+0XXX). How can I do it? I can't copy this number and there is no options like "change then dial". The one and only solution for it - is to choose "send SMS" and copy the number from the "From" field! But is it useful and normal for a device which costs about 500 euro?
A: As yet I know only one way: use Inesoft PhoneEx. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
4. Imagine: you have a contact Ivan in your contacts, which has 2 phone numbers: mobile and work. Two sms arrive to your phone: one is from his home number, another is from work. Sms inbox displays both of it as "Ivan". How do I know which sms is sent from what number?
A: As yet I know only one way: use Inesoft PhoneEx. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
5. How can I copy a number which was dialed earlier or number from contacts? I see only one way(but it's weird): chose "edit contact" and copy from the field. Is there another way?
A: As yet I know only one way: use Inesoft PhoneEx. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
6. While a phone conversation how can I easily save a number which my friend is saying to me? I tried to dial it while a call is active, it's ok, but once the call is dropped, my number disappears! Yes, I can create a note using a special touch-key, but it's not useful, because I should use my keypad and then should copy that number, but I need to dial it! How can it be solved?
7. Have anybody experienced a problem while taking a photo of many different objects? I had. It happened when I took a photo of a forest - there were a lot of trees alongside each other and after pressing shot button, "Saving..." was displayed on my screen for about 15 minutes! After it said that it failed to take a photo. What it can be?
8. Where can I find all my earlier connected WiFi points and passwords? I want to save it before upgrading my firmware. Can I backup it?
9. Can I turn of a feature of turning my screen light on when I plugging my X1 to PC? I don't want this light to be turning on when I do it! Is it possible?
10. While surfing internet via GPRS/EDGE or getting my email from server, my GSM part of device seems to be "unconsciousness": when somebody calls me, I'm "out of zone". How can I fix it? I want my GSM part to be number 1 by priority!
11. I can see anything when the sun is shining. I know everybody with X1 can't. But can I "ask" my backlight to help me? For example, set it to turn maximum power when on the light, or something? I'm asking because, as I've understood, my auto-backlight works vice versa: when it's bright - it turns off, when it's dark - it turns its max power. I want max power when it's very bright too!
A: People say that screen protector with anti-glare really helps.
12. When an SMS is coming, I get a popup notification at the bottom of the screen. I can either press "Reply" or "Options". If I press reply, the chat mode opens and I can reply, seeing all our conversation. BUT if I go to my address book and choose "New SMS" on a contact, different form will be opened, just like for e-mail composing. And here is a question: how can I make this "e-mail composing" style sms appearing after I press "Reply" when new sms arrived? I know how to turn the chat mode off, but I don't need it to be turned off completely, because it's useful while reading sms from one person. I just want reply to a person using simple form. Is it possible somehow? I think that if it's can be made by hands(New sms from contacts), then it could be implemented programmatically... maybe some values in registry?
A: As yet I know only one way: use Inesoft PhoneEx. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
13. At the screens you can see screenshots from my X1 with R2A0010 and 1.14 radio: 1 hour after powering on and 2 days after powering on. Why there is such a difference in memory consumption in some system processes? Is it an ordinary thing?
A: People say that it's normal. You can correct or supplement this opinion(and please do it) if you know more on that.
Thank you very much in advance again!
Great questions, especially #6. I can't answer any of them exept #5, so I'll have to watch this thread along with you!
#5, go to call log in the phone dialer and there is a menu option to save to contacts. If you want to save it to a pre-existing contact....you will have to add a question #14 to your list
PhoneX can do these two.

It's almost the same solution I offered for existing contact(edit contact and copy number from there). Maybe it's possible somehow to add in menu "Copy number"? (or I just have too much hope)

Thanks for your answer. Yes, it can, just as Inesoft Phone. I've installed both of it. And then removed both in the same day. IMHO, they add some good design, but hardly can pretend on a lot more useful then original dialer. (Just for future messages, to have this thread clean, I say to myself and others(for the off-chance): I would not want to discuss any soft here, so please, let it be only tries to answer to these questions... thank you in advance)
BRING ON THE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!
1 - I don't know.
2 - AEB Button Plus has such a feature.
3, 4, 5, 6, 12 - I use PhoneEx sorry.
7 - Never heard of it. Upgrade your device to R3A and try again.
8 - I believe there is a text file in the Windows folder. I am not 100% sure though.
9 - Yes. There is a reg tweak, but I can't find it. Someone else should have it.
10 - Never had that problem. Are you using a custom ROM?
11 - I can see the screen very good in the sun, because I use a screen protector with anti-glare. Buy one and be amazed.

Thank you. I'm sure there are a lot of people, who would like to know these answers too... I hope that there are people here on xda-developers forum, who knows needed answers...
It's almost the same solution I offered for existing contact(edit contact and copy number from there). Maybe it's possible somehow to add in menu "Copy number"? (or I just have too much hope)
I don't know how about you, but when I choose "Save to contacts", it opens all contacts + "New contact" list...
Thanks for your answer. Yes, it can, just as Inesoft Phone. I've installed both of it. And then removed both in the same day. IMHO, they add some good design, but hardly can pretend on a lot more useful then original dialer. (Just for future messages, to have this thread clean, I say to myself and others(for the off-chance): I would not want to discuss any soft here, so please, let it be only tries to answer to these questions... thank you in advance)

PhoneEX is way more useful than org. dialer

I've been using the PhoneEx trial for a few days and it doesn't do #5 and #6. If any workaround involves tons of keypresses and program changing (during the call) to accomplish, then it fails. I think the OP is looking for a quick way of accomplishing these things during a call. Going to the notes application during a call only partly works. In order to actually use that number you may have jotted down in notes, you have to find the file and call the number from the notes file...not very elegant. There should be a means of jotting down numbers while in the dialer (without sending out tones causing your voicemail to go crazy) so that you may call or save them during or afterwards.
Also, I may be wrong but, how do you add additional numbers to a contact without copying and then going into edit contact then pasting? For example, how do you add a home number to a contact that already has a work number without manually going into edit contact and adding it. There should be a "merge with existing contact" feature within the dialer menus.
Not bashing PhoneEx, because it is pretty good otherwise. But, I am a stickler for convenience features. I hate tons of button pressing and navigation to accomplish simple things.

I tried to assign the dial pad to the call button, but I just get a dead PhoneEx screen. Is this a limitation of the trial version?
It works when I assign Calls or Contacts, but not the dial pad.

Sorry as in "I use superior product ftw" .
Unfortunatelly the nature of WinMo is that you need to add third party soft most of the time. That's the way it works.

If you don't mind I'm asking, why do you want to check your phone uptime? Do you have a time usage restriction or something?

Just for fun My work computer can be running for month or so... Sometimes it's interesting for how much your X1 is powered on. For example, if I see any bugs on it, I question myself: "How long does this thing work? Maybe it's time for an SR?". If I found that it's only a day - I would be very curious. And if it's already a week - I do an SR without any additional thoughts That's my answer
