the in-call "Slide down for more options" curtain
does anyone know how to turn this feature off?
i've searched and there are a few threads on this
but with no answers.
thanks in advance
I need this aswell, Could it be fixed with a registery edit?
I'm guessing you guys have done the same that I've done loads .... pulled the slider the wrong bloody way and hung up on people ? ?
I have to keep remembering to use the answer button not the touch screen.
I have searched some more, Without an actual solution,
Still I think it should be 'fixed' by a registry edit.
Can anyone give a concrete answer?
I remember when I used my HTC Touch Elfin, Some roms had the 'curtain' and some didn't, though it were 'the same dialers'
Sorry for the double post, But, Bump?
Anyone?
u can set the delay
HKEY Local Machine/Software/HTC/Phone/Cover/ResumeInterval
Default is 5000
So, To what should we change it to disable it?
0?
No not "0" Set it to "999999999999" or something. Tried many things like make an registry key EnablePhoneCover etc but nothing works
999999999999 would disable it completely?

No but you only have to slide down once. I have installed the screenoff tweak every time i make a call the screen turns of but the slider is not coming back
Oh ok ^^ Ty mate Will do for now...
But I still think there is a better way to do it, cause some diallers on custom roms do not contain the curtain, But are the same diallers.
I now but this was not with the new Topaz
I tried everyting in the registry but no luck so far
It's been 40 days since the last post. I was wondering if someone came with a fix for it by now?
I don't need this curtain. I want to have all the call options to begin with on my Diamond2 Just like I had it with my old Touch Pro. I don't want the curtain to show at all! I don't want to slide it down even once, Just to completely avoid it alltogether.

I noticed that installing Rhodium Dialer from CAB which I prepared disables curtain (and enables landscape and coference modes for dialer). The problem is that installation of this takes about 18mb of storage memory.
I'm thinking of creating my own ROM (as I did for Omnia ) based on 6.1 with Flashlite3 support in Opera and full landscape support cooked inside (using Rhodium components) .

No, you can't - this is integral part of phone and files must be put into \Windows folder.

I searched and found a ton of "How do I customize the sliding keyboard sounds". But I am running Alex's multimedia ROM, and for the life of me can't figure out how to get the stock sliding keyboard sound back on my Tilt. I don't even have the option to turn it on in my settings anymore. It just appears to be gone.
Am I missing a setting? If not, is there a .cab to reinstall the sliding sounds option?
Thanks

WP, that did it. Thanks. I did notice a slow down in regen when the screen is going from portrait to landscape though. However, I end up with the link in settings/personal, and the same sounds I had before I flashed.
I am using Alex ATT MM 1.6 and the sounds work too, but I dont see the link in settings/personal.
EDIT: Reboot and found it.
hello seniors,
http://rapidshare.com/files/79748184/SH4Y_Sliding_Sounds_Configure.cab this file does what? is it the software that allows the phone play a sound when opens and closes? OR is it configure the sound of the sliding keyboard? if i hd the software of keyboard sliding sound built in when i got this phone do i need to install this .cab? thanks

total noob needs help with missing sliding sounds.
Hi I just downloaded the Tilt_SlidingSounds.CAB.
I then unzipped it on my computer and moved the folder containing the filles to my Vario III and put it in the windows folder. Using file explorer I found the folder opened it and hit setup. it worked but the sliding keyboard sound tweaker was placed in the windows folder too. So not saticefied with this I moved over the whole zip file to my phone and put it in my personal folder where I exicuted the cab. owever I could still only find it near the bottom of the windows folder and I want it in the settings/personal where my original one used to be before the phone got sent off for repair.
Although this tweaker works it only has 3 sounds to choose from. Is this right too?
Please give advice to all of this I am eager to learn and am still searching through the FAQs
Thanks

I've spent a couple of hours looking for dialler skins for my kaiser (o2 Stellar branded) and not had a lot of luck finding anything that works with smart dialling, video, landscape and that has no major issues. Can anyone recommend anything that could replace the dialler on my stock ROM without having to flash a cooked ROM?
I have tried searching for such skins, and had no luck. I apologise if I have managed to miss something, and would be grateful for a link to any thread dealing with this query.
Haven't tried it yet
Found this today when I was thinking the same thing. http://www.hkscorpio.com/members/bong/product_Dialpad_Maker.htm
Also, I was thinking of doing it myself. I found the windows dialer images in the windows directory. Haven't got around to changing them myself.
I think they are:
Number buttons (replace # with numbers 0 through 9)
[*]NmBtn#dn_Land.png - Landscape pressed button
[*]NmBtn#dn_Port.png - Portrait pressed button
[*]NmBtn#up_Land.png - Landscape unpressed button
[*]NmBtn#up_Port.png - Portrait unpressed button
Backgrounds
[*]Dialer_BkgL.png - Landscape background
[*]Dialer_BkgP.png - Portrait background
There are more PNGs that make up the rest of the buttons but haven't located those yet.
hmm im just using the normal one for wm6.0 instead of the htc one
Thanks sahoopes, but I could not get anything from the "download" link on that page. I'll have to have a go at messing about with the images you found when I have time to teach myself how.

Hi
I made this little CAB to install the registry tweaks that prevent your screen from blanking. I can confirm that on my Orange Diamond, using Bepe's .97 this actually works, whereas using Advanced Config didn't solve the issue.
The CAB file is uninstallable should you wish to remove it.
Thanks,

Actually i found that using DT didn't work either, and I also find it more convenient to apply the registry changes with a cab file, rather than having to install an app I don't use and then make a load of clicks.
If you prefer to do it using a tweaking app then this cab isn't for you. The only reason I posted it is because I use it myself.

Well actually it's been very easy to achieve by taking registry snapshots, and then using diff on a linux box to find the changes, then import them into a cab file.
So thanks for wishing me luck but it's not required.
Sarcasm breeds sarcasm and frankly i'm slightly ammused that on a forum designed to help users share tips and software, a simple CAB i use after new ROM flashes has created such a hostile response.
I'm not attempting to replace or belittle your tool monte, it's certainly streets ahead of what i can do at the moment, however as bepe's ROM lets me run cabs at build this way is nice and easy for me to ensure that if I need to do a hard reset I can reinstate my registry tweaks during the reset without having to install any additional software.

Brilliant, I'd tried the registry tweaks in the tweaks thread, and advancedconfig without any luck and this cab worked perfectly.
I haven't tried DiamondTweak, looks interesting though.

It's not that bad, it just annoys me when I'm phoning numbers where you have a number menu system to get through.
It's strange that it's something no other WM phones I've used have done, yet theres no menu option to disable it.

This CAB file is flawed, because it causes unnecessary battery drain.
It's wrong to make the screen never go to sleep during a phone call.
If you'll think about it for a moment, during a call we never really need the screen to be active for more than 1 minute or so, from the last time we touched it. If you are calling a digital voice machine (either your voicemail or anything), 99.999% of the time it won't take more than 1 minute between key presses.
The ideal tweak should just make the screen behave like when you're not in a call, meaning the screen reduces brightness after ~30 seconds, and shuts down after ~1 minute. In order to be 100% on the safe side, you could make it shut down after 2 minutes from last key press. BUT, making it never go to sleep is simply a waste of battery if you're doing for example a 30 minutes conversation.
center button and screen back on
My preference is to have the screen come on, see who it is, then allow it to go blank. If you need it to come back on, i just push the center of the scroll, enter button or whatever its called, and the screen comes back on. (at least it does on mine) . I like it that the screen blanks so it will save battery.
But i dont think we should discourage anyone from making any kind of cab if they desire.

Still, it is unnoying to press that damn key every 5 seconds. The screen should shut down after 1-2 minutes, but NOT never.

Thats abosolute BS. It is NOT flawed. If you dont want your screen to stay on just - dont use the CAB. I think most users around here are smart enought to know that keeping the screen on during a call takes a battery hit. If they use the CAB as I intend to they are willing to accept this.
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

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

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.

I found the cab and it looks like i was right. We might have a nice keyboard fix coming soon.

For those users interested to find a solution to disable the curtain, here is the package. Could be a dll or a registry key.
Found a solution
Found a solution with reg key.
Goto HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\Cover
There is a DWORD value ResumeInterval set to 5000 (5secs).
I changed it 300000 (5mins) and soft-reset.
Now the call starts with slider on, you only need to slide down once. Then it will wait for 5 mins of inactivity to come back up.
Probably higher values can be used, but 5mins should work for me.
As always, modify registry at your own risk...

I had zero issue with the standard one, it was functional and did exactly as one would expect. Topaz dialer hides all options instantly making it absolutely dangerous to try and activate loudspeaker whilst driving . The other issue is landscape view, if using any rotate screen app and having the device in landscape (ie. whilst using GPS apps etc) and receiving a call there is no dialer shown at all!
Surely I am not the only one to notice these problems?
thanks man it helped
