Hi friends,
I was very upset since on my today screen, since always there was an Icon covering the Icon of Signal Strength. Which was really annoying? Since sometime inside the buildings you really want to know the strength of Signal….
I tried to uninstall SpB GPRS monitor from Pocket Pc, but twice failed, may be I installed this software in the Extended ROM (Cooked); rather it was giving so much problem and I needed another hard task to reinstall it again.
Now with grace of God I got the Solution.
I changed it through the amendment in registry key as by Resco Registry Editor.
Go on HK Local Machine →→
Software
→Then SpB Software house
→GPRS Monitor
→Showicon
→DWORD Date to Change it to 0 instead 1 and it worked…Thank GODAny other suggestion or negative impact it can give to my software …let's share with me…thank you..
Another way to do this would be to run SPB GPRS Monitor from Programs. Then select Tools/Options/Icon. Where you can change whether the Icon appears or not, and also where on the menu bar it appears.
May be easier than hacking the registry.
Cheer
RTP
moving icon GPRS
under tools->options ->icon it is possible to move the icon to the desired position.
Thought i mentioned this , because i think you didn't know.
Thanks
oh yes..i did not find it ....and it was so easy.....thansk for reply :? :?
overlapping on today screen
Hi Guys,
I downloaded the spb gprs monitor from O2 Connect yesterday, and as soon as I installed it the today screen went bonkers! All the programs work fine, but when I go back to the today screen, it seems to be overlapping. I'm not sure if I'm sending my message across right!
The letters seem to overlap different letters, such that I cant read it.
Can you guys help?
I am very new to the XDA2s, so pls explain in detail. I tried looking at the wiki pages, but there was nothing about this problem.
SG
Try changing the theme of your today screen - should sort out the screen corruption.
Hi
I had sent my XDA2s to O2 before i got the reply here.
i have now got it back from them, installed O2 plus and GPRS monitor (downloaded by O2 connect), and evertyhting works just fine.
They had probably done a hard reset or something. They havent changed any ROM version as am still running the old ROM versions.
Thanks anyway.

Ongoing issues that need to be resolved - If you respond to any of these before you write any response PLEASE put the issue number at the top of your post, because this thread is going to get very large fast and this will help keep it somewhat organized, thanks.
#1: I have tried everything but can dump the time & battery icon off the title bar without alignment problems. Anybody find a key yet? Are we stuck creating new icon templates in black to save us from the alignment issue? Or has someone found a key to compensate the alingment loss from removing both time & battery status icons?
#2:Does Video Share work on the Tilt if you have an HTC ROM on it and are connecting with a Video Share enabled phone? (obviously this will only be applicable for people who live in the selected 3G networks for which Video Share is supported)
#3:When I make/recieve a call, and I try to access the top bar (start button) the top bar locks up. if I try a shortcut button to IE for example, IE loads but just says connecting... if I hangup the call, it redoes the 3G connection (it was 3G before I was on the call) and the IE works.
BUT the top bar is locked up. Start/3G icon, etc doesn't click. Only the "X" will work until I do a reboot.
#4
The "Buttons" setting only allows me to change the short press settings for 5 buttons. Elsewhere on this forum, there are instructions for adding the PTT button for both short press and long press, by adding registry keys 40C6 and 40C7. Can I add long press entries for other buttons?
Update!: According to HTC support, this is currently impossible. Sorry. (thanks deathace)
Update #2: Vito Button Mapper also enables push and hold functionality for the standard buttons (not PTT button) using the Start, Settings, Button Mapper. Also allows for customization of the soft buttons based on running application. Got to say that while Vito Button Mapper works, it's not that WM6 Pro friendly. In other words it works, but has some issues with icon display and uninstall. Hopefully HTC support will get their act together. (thanks Jim_R)
Update #3: Spb Pocket Plus 4.0.1 also allows for remapping of keys w/hold functionality, including PTT and works with WM6 (thanks _Alex_)
#5
Is there a way to choose radio frequency besides using Bandswitch? Meaning the setting would show up in the Phone Settings menu that allows Band Selection. Perhaps there are some registry edits out there?
Here is a cab file that replaces "PhoneSettings.Dll" with the one from the Rogers Canada Tilt Rom. and enables the Band Tab. You will be required to reset your phone after installation.
#6
There have been issues regarding connecting to WEP encrypted networks...if anyone else knows of these issues and a possible fix, please contribute...whitelisting the MAC address on the router has already been attempted (and failed).
This post has been moved and temporarily stickied.
Please be sure to visit the Wiki. Most of your questions can be answered there regarding the Tilt.
The previous thread, "The thread to address ALL TILT-specific questions" has been unstuck, but can still be used if required.
Have fun!
HTC steaming media seems to work on the TyTN II but not the tilt. of all the posts that I've read, and googled, only 1 person has said that their tilt works with streaming media is working, but not fully with every site, just a few. TCPMP with ytpocket seems to be the closest thing to a band aid. but this ony gets you youtube, not the other sites that work on a TyTN II with HTC SM.

Okay, Here's the deal. HTC streaming media is for RTSP files only. That means Pocket YouTube. Yes it works in the US, but you have to have the correct ID/User Agent for it to work correctly. Basically the Streaming Media Player is a license of Real Player. All stock Tilt have an EXE called Real.exe in windows directory. If you open it, it's the same as Streaming Media Player, Has the same Icon as Real Player, & the about screen calls it HTC Real Player.

errrrrr. If you flash the identical ROM on a TyTN II and a Tilt, how are the files in the windows directory any different?
I think you misread what I typed.
OK, after serching in many forums, i found that the problem is:
"When the device is protected by a password (Start/Settings/Lock), the start menu freezes after ending phone calls. In addition, the backlight turns off.
This only happens if the phone call is long enough (more than a few secs) for the display to turn off during the call. This is to prevent accidental button presses. When the phone call is ended the display should come back up, however, this is where bug seems to manifest itself. Somehow the password protection gets in the way and turns the display off and freezes the start menu.
The reason why this is serious (especially for business users) is that when you use MS exchange sync, many businesses enforce policies requiring a device password (common & recommended practice). This means that the option of turning the device password off does not exist. Therefore, using exchange sync (with security policies enforced) and making phone calls does not work."
So, acording to this, there are two solutions:
1º Sinple turn of pasword protection if you don't need it;
2º (found in modaco) Change a registry entry:
\HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplay DuringCall
From "1" to "0" will stop it but be warned if you arent using a headset then the touch sensitive screen will be in operation throughout the call so you may end up with your ear triggering applications etc...

HTC Kaiser QuickGPS Fix (Error solution)
Just import this .reg file into your Kaiser registry:
http://myego.cz/img/htc-kaiser/quickgps.reg
Nasty Camera
My phone works ok I guess and I am pleased with it. But I miss not being able to take photos with it. I used my TYTN all the time primarily as a mobile video station and a camera. But this KAISER is a complete mess when it comes to taking photos.
My point is, can someone tell me how to turn off the auto focus is thats the problem or does anyone have any idea how to speed up the lens to capture time. It takes forever to set its focus. Oh, and don't start me on video capture as that IS the joke of the century.
I can't believe what a step back this KAISER is in comparison to its older brother the TYTN. I expected this phone to at least take a moderate picture. Why on earth is the 2nd camera better (VGA) than the 3MP main camera. It is completely crazy.
I digress and am off to cry now.
Hi all,
may I know if anyone had face this problem. Whenever we receive an SMS, it pops up as a notification at the bottom of the screen. But the notification normally have 2 options: Normally, reply/view on the left and menu on the right. For the left option, sometimes it is "reply" and sometimes it is "view". Is this normal? How can I change it to permanently as "view" only?
Thanks all in advance.
Cheers

Hi eRic,
It is shown as "Reply" when your message fits the dialog box notification neatly. If it doesn't "View" is shown for you to read the full message. Hope this helps.
Hey, actually I have a problem synchronizing. I have been told that if a Kaiser is connected to a PC through Activesync, then the Kaiser could use the PC's Internet connection. And I think that is great, except mine won't. Instead my PC will try to use my Kaiser as a modem, even though it is already connected.... What can I do?

DoubleLauncher also includes similar functionality, but with even more options:
single tap, double tap, single hold, double hold, triple tap - 5 combinations per button - HTC may be right that it isn't possible with vanilla windows, but it is obviously possible to code something.
wifi vs AT&T
Sorry for asking a question that I am sure was already addressed (unfortunately I cannot find it).
How do I instruct my AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) to try to connect using WiFi when it is present rather then connect using AT&T GPRS, 3G whatever?
When I bought my phone in October, I got advice from Howard Forum to go to your site (http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...22&d=1191864241) to get a cab file. I did that, and it worked.
I had to replace my phone which was defective, and now I wanted to get the same cab file for the new phone but the link no longer works.
Your advice and help will be very much appreciated. If you prefer you can send me a private message to [email protected].
upgrade??
I was this close to jumping from the 8525 to the 8925 but advised not too: ATT rep says there are software and hardware issues that they are working on with HTC and IT guys say they've had issues as well.
What's the consensus here? is it worth the risk or should I wait a while longer for things to iron out?

Well, the Video Rendering sucks. All in all though, I have to say I really like the device. It's okay out of the box, but after tinkering & tweaking I have to say that I'm glad I moved to the Kaiser. The GPS is solid for me & after changing my DNS settings to OpenDNS the internet is fast. I tether a lot & get great speed on my laptop (when in HSPDA or 3G). Yess, there are some issues, but I think it's the best device around. I've had no problems with my Tilt or my TYTN II. It works really well with our Blackberry server & I get my emails fater on my device than on my pc.
The only issue for me again is the video. But it's mostly a work device for me, so vide isn't a big deal. Besides TCPMP playback is good enough for catching up on my missed episodes of House MD.
I'd say go for it.
Hi all,
I wonder if this is even consider a problem or bug. At the Today screen, there will be times when you are overflow with schedules. Then a scroll bar will appear at the right most of the screen(as shown below left). The scroll bar stretch all the way from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen. Is it possible to change it to such a way that the scroll bar starts from the bottom of the Today plug-in to the bottom of the screen(as shown bottom right). Please kindly advice if this can be done.
Thanx
Cheers
eRic
You can use HHC (home plug-in config) to lock the home plug in. Then the scroll is just at the bottom. There is a registry setting to do the same thing, but I don't know what it is. The HHC is a great utility as you can back up the plug in and change the fonts and icons too.
OpenDNS
GSLEON, where does one change DNS settings to the OpenDNS settings? Thanks.
What can I do???
Hello all,
I am on my second Tilt now (on AT&T network) but I am still having voice clarity issues. Very choppy conversations at times, even when connected to a landline, but there are always at least 2 signal bars & 3G displayed. I have tried to disable the data before making calls, but so far I have seen no improvement. Could Active sync have something to do W/ my problem? It always seems to be running. Also, I am using the stock AT&T rom.
Any input provided pertaining to my issue is greatly appreciated.

Hi everybody, right now I try to set up the HTC Diamond for my father, so far so easy .
I just have one major (and one minor) problem:
Is there a way to forbit the Diamond to go online at all? Right now, when you by chance hit the weather button, he just starts to establish a data connection. The Diamond is not supposed to go online at all over the normal cell phone network (probably over WLAN, but that is not important). Is there a way to disable that, or at least ask if you want to go online?
And the minor problem/question, is there a way to configure which buttons are on the bottom? E.g. he doesn't need to have E-Mail there.
Thanx a lot for your help , and I hope, I haven't overlooked a thread with the awsers .
Try remove the grps settings in settings \ connections \ connections \ manage connections. It should't connect if it does't have a connections to use
Use TF3D Config to remove tabs. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749
I removed mail, internet and contacts myself.
or try 'NO DATA' its a cab file in artemis section, you can select and deselect real easy
Thanx a lot for the quick help. TF3D and deleting the connection did the job . I will use NoData.cab for my self, as soon as the HTC Touch pro is out and in my hands.

It's much more easyer to disable autoupdate in weather panel- options . You can disable mail panel using tf3d config.Disable 3g and that's it. You can go online every time you want.
My father has the incredible talent by having no idea what he does, he finally makes the think he isn't supposed . I actually already disablked the weather feature, but he worked his magic.
Good thread! I was wondering this too. But my phone connects with 3G if i am in oprah and my WLAN connection died for a second. I will try nodata though!
Hi there all Shift owners and developers ,
My shift is installed with xp tablet , wm6 - ioo rom . When i click on the zoom button ( the second top right button ) it will resize the screen to a smaller and sharper display and another click it will go back to the normal size , And when i click on the commander button ( the first top right button ) it will display a bat. something ! file where i can switch on / off wifi and bluetooth by tapping on the screen . Since i have change the user setting , i now unable to get any response when i clicked both the buttons , Is there any way to restore or reinstate this earlier function to both the buttons ? Please assist me as i am a newbie to Shift , thanks and kind regards - jimmunsw
Not sure.. but if all else fails you can try a factory restore
Remember to backup first though
Had this problem. I reinstalled the drivers from the HTC website and that restored the button functions.
Thanks for yr reply - unlocksmith and sheepster . I will try it out later and see how it goes
I had the same problem. Using XP you use the modded control center. just look in the .bat file, i installed them in programs folder, not in root c:\, which causing the error you have, I just modified the path to controls in .bat files, everyone of those 4, wifi on, off, bluetooth on, off. And had no problem. However I agreed that Windows 7 is more suitable for this device because of the great touchscreen support so... Windows 7 it is
Dear Dalvus ,
Thks for the info , will try to do it yr way once i hv more time to fiddle my shift , cheers n best regards - jimmunsw
Android 2.0.1 Clean \ Glossy Version
Hey Frendz i am back this time use bandwidth wisely
http://www.myxperoid.com/
Even bundled headphones sound great
1 Main speaker working audio working.... {thx to xda members especially drlucky}
2 wifi working
3 Astro new version added(no waiting)
4 Headphones working {thanks to vdelf}
5 keyboard mapped
6 Backlight control working(thanks to vdelf again)
What you need to do with it:
1. Extract android 20100430.7z on your computer.
2. Copy all files and directories to the root of your sd-card. Do not create any directory, just copy them to the blank sd-card.
3.On the X1 open the sd-card and run haret.exe. You will get alot text running across the screen.

Glossy version

Clean version
http://myxperoid.com/Xperia-x1-xperoid/android-201-clean-version.html
Android (Xperoid) is allmost at the stage to be stable enough to use day in day out!
Not everything is working, like camera, headphones (or) WiFi, but it doesn't bother me that mutch.
I can call, text and use the internet so i`m fine
The few things i've encountered and tried to solve (most answers came from this topic)
- WiFi
If you want to use WiFi, use the kernel of the previous version (you can't use headphones anymore, but I prefer WiFi above that), also turn on WiFi in Windows Mobile before you hit HaReT.exe
Kernel can be downloaded here:

- GPS
Turn off GPS in Android (Experoid) else you will get pwnd by the phone, becouse it will freeze in like 5-10 minutes.

To send messages, go to your Windows Mobile and change some settings (if you want to know how read this topic, it's in here).
EDIT it's even here!

I'm using SEX1 as my WinMo OS, you can change your SMSC by going to Comm Manager >> Settings >> Phone >> Services >> Voice Mail and Text Messages and change the "+" sign to "00". I'm on Maxis Malaysia, so mine would read 0060120000015 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting**************0060120000015******end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting**************0060120000015******end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting**************0060120000015******end_of_the_skype_highlighting. Once that is done, just run haret.exe and you are good to go.
- GPRS Data Connections
If you want to use your data connections from your operator, you need to fill them in manually.
Quote:
Go to Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks > Name Accespoint (I guess it's called like that, I have it in Dutch so I need to translate ) > " Menu Button " > New APN.
Some problems I've ran into that I don't know how to fix:
- Screen never turns off, it just turns black, but it's still on.
- Market fails sometimes, you have internet connection, but market gives you errors
I've encountered more problems but atm I don't remember so they weren't huge fails I guess
I`m not trying to be like "This sucks and that sucks" just trying to help improvement.
I hope I've helped out a bit, btw a tip:
put like a FAQ in the first message, so you don't get 25 posts like "My WiFi aint workin' HELP MEEEH!"
sorry i just copy and pasted it from a reply from falcobredewold
People who support me:-
Thanks to all people who supported us
I would be upgrading my plan thanks to all you people
thanks in advance
Nice work Sanjay, i lost all hope with Fatsal's lost mobile
is there a way of running this from the Phone memory and not from SD? do you think it will going to enhance the speed?
no u can only run dis from sd card
it is not a complete replacement for wm as u can not use camera , gps , and key mapping is also not proper
Just downloaded the file from Hotfile and it says it does not contain archives...
Am now downloading from Mediafire. will take some time.
Sanjay, thanks for sharing btw !!!
Mediafire one works with unpacking ! Took more than an hour to download :-(
how this could be try the mediafire one
is this the same android system? but just with the updated kernel?
or have you changed/upgraded something in android as well?
Thanks Sanjayecb. It works great. Sound and wifi are both working. It's also quite fast. I think it beats Winmo 6.5.3 at speed.
Downloading it right know
Thnx if it works fine I will make a donation
Appreciate your nice work.
Does this release fix the problem that backlight can't turned off?
so whats the difference with this release than the latest kernel release where speaker and wifi already working
Is there a way to add default android keyboard? I very much prefer it over HTC one that this distro sports.
no difference as such i just helped the dummies.
Do you mean the keyboard? HTC lacks few characters, some of which important - like ` for example. This is why I don't like HTC one
thanks for your hard work:i'm downloading it
but what's the new in it?
no i was talking about the hw keyboard
the keymapping is not proper in android
very nice work...
hi sanjayecb,
nice work, with sound working. it's fast progress.
cheers,
fatsal
