Hi,
I am trying to find a way of assigning the hardware key to launch the backlight application. Preferably the button the the top left of the device which is currently used for the voice speed dial.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Ronan
I changed mine from Voice Dial to Comm Manager by going to the button icon in settings and there is a list there, Im not sure what programs are on there but its a start.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice, unfortunately the backlight option is not on this menu. I wonder if it is possible to add it via registry entry or some other means.

hmm i kno there is some kind of "display off" program u can find, then u can go under the buttons settings and select that program to be under a certain button... see if u can find it, ill try and find a link for it and send it to ya.
Found a version that didn't work on the net. Replaced Comm Manager files with ones from AT&T 3.53 ROM. Combined it with registry settings from Schap's 6-Button Comm Manager.
You should be able to modify the buttons with Schap's tool. Images for the following buttons are in the cab:
3G
AUTD
Bluetooth
DataDisconnection
FlightMode
Phone
Vibrate
WLAN
Make sure that Comm Manager is not running when you install this one. Check your Task Manager (thanks NFRCER!). Works Great! Enjoy!
Edit: [HTCDiamond CommManager (Updated).cab ]Updated! Left old images so you can see the difference.
- Changed default items in Comm Manager.
- Made a new 3G icon.
- Made Ringer icon for when Vibrate is off.
Edit: [HTCDiamond CommManager (6-6-2008).cab] Updated again!
- Bigger font
- No more blank space on top.
When I try to install this it gives me the error:
"The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions."
I have never seen this before. Any reason why?
EDIT: Got it installed. Thank you NFRCER for your help!

that is because you have comm manager open.
try soft resetting and install it.

Thank you very much....... I had installed many Diamond Comm Manager in the past few days, all of them worked fine on my Touch but failed to sync with my PC. Your version is GOOD and Working FINE with ActiveSync without any error............ Thanks again, indeed.
awesome work akadonny!
no problem. just trying to give a little back to the community that I've taken so much from.
great job and thx
How Can I uinstal this? Please help
just go to remove programs and uninstall it. I know uninstall is possible because I installed and uninstalled several versions before I posted this final working version.
I uninstall from RemovePrograme already but my Comm Manager skin can not comeback to the HTC skin....
first, really good job! Thanks
a small bug.
Vibrate: The icon on right is not switching from on to off
Vibrate: no icon on left side when vibrate is off
I hope you can fix it.

Isn't this an ordinary step to take for every software?

Is it possible to change the background from White to Diamond Black ?

I took a look at this and this issue doesn't seem to be a bug. With the other buttons such as phone, wifi, 3G and flightmode the default action when you hit the button is to turn each feature off. Vibrate on the other hand does not turn off. When you change any button to vibrate and hit that button it turns on ringer. For this reason it stays on because the function is to either have vibrate on or ringer on. What we are missing is the icon for the ringer. I installed Schap's 6-button Comm Manager and I get the same result. I'll update this thread once I find the ringer icon. Please let me know if anyone else finds one first.
Edit: I made a quick icon for ringer. Anyone that's using "Vibrate" as one of the comm manager functions just right click and save "Function_Ringer.png" and copy the file to "\Windows" of your WinMo device. Anyone with better photoshop skills, please post an icon for Vibrate\Ringer.

You can use pretty much any background, but you will have to play with the font color. You will need to replace 2 files.
P_BG.png - portrait image, 240x268
L_BG.png - landscape image, 320x268
If you only replace these files I think it would not look very nice. I'm not that great with photoshop, but if anyone else would like to take a shot at it all the images are attached.
On another note this thread is for "Diamond Comm Manager". Using other images would just make it modded comm manager and I do believe there are several other threads with custom comm managers that are different colors.
Hope this was helpful
EDIT!!! - I just updated the cab with ringer image and updated 3g image. Check first post.
Big thanks for the update,
One problem left for me, Wi-Fi is not turning on from the Comm Manager, can you please check it - or is this cab not work propper with an artemis.... ?

Try this one. Let me know if it works.
EDIT: removed attachment. didn't work.
Sorry akadonny,
It will not work,
When I press Wi-Fi I get a short animation but nothing happens, if I enable wireless Lan in settings menu (as you can see in the topbar) it is not switching too.
sorry to disturbe you again

if you have a cab of a comm manager that works for you that would help me fix the diamond for you. It should be a pretty easy fix. Anyways, try this one. 3rd times a charm, right?
Hey,
is there a quick way of getting to the comm screen? for example every time i wanna turn wifi on/off, i have to click on one of the icons at the top of the screen, select an option (i.e radio) and then wait for the popup to come up asking if i want to goto the comm screen
is there a quicker/easier way of doing this?
I know the throttlelauncher software does have a comm manager tab, but for the time being i want to use the standard touchflo screens
Add a link in your TF3D programs to the comm manager, like in upper left side
Why not put the comm manager in your programs shortcut.
Slide/Swipe to programs.. and then Tap on Comm Manager Icon
Alternatively, you could edit the registry and have Comm Manager as one of the soft keys appearing on the home screen

you can also set your commanager to the long press send button.
hey, great idea on putting it as a soft key, think i will do that....any idea what the path to the comm manager is though?

Hi all
I've had a look around the forums, and i cant seem to find a definitive answer to what im looking for, and im certain ive seen it in a rom somewhere
what im looking for is the following:
A program which allows me to change the orientation of the screen by means of a start menu shortcut (not the one which normally be in the settings -> screen -> orientation, that menu seems to be missing on my rom)
does anyone know of a program (preferably free), that is small, and lightweight that can do this?
many thanks
Search for Gsen or Gyrator in forum.
ive done the searches, ive used gsen/gyrator, those are automatic screen rotators which change the orientation of the screen using the inbuilt accelorometer
i am looking for someting which i can use to manually change the orientation of the screen, a bit like the orientation switcher which was built into the screen settings menu
nobody?
surely someone must know of a program that can do this
ScreenRotator
http://www.pocketkai.net/asp/en/index-en.html
Saerch for the freeware ScreenRotator.net at this site.
QuickMenu has that feature which will replace your Start Menu. you can do that by tapping an menu item then.
Unless I misunderstand, install AEbutton and map one of your buttons to screen orientation.
Hey Stix,
To enable the screen rotation icon from the Settings>Screen menu, edit the registry: "HKLM\System\GDI\Rotation\HideOrientationUI" and change the value to 0. Go to the Screen page and you'll see the Portrait/Landscape option.
After enabling the screen rotation option, you can map the talk button to rotate the screen with a long press. Start>Settings>Buttons; just look for the <Rotate Screen> option from the pull down menu.
You don't have to go to the Start menu, doesn't use resources (I'm guessing) and it's free!
Hope this helps.
TF3D doesn't rotate even when you select the <Rotate Screen> option (unless the keyboard is popped out, obviously). Only applications and the Windows menus will rotate if you manually rotate the screen.
thank you very much my good man!
this is perfect, i use my raphael to read a lot of pdf's and docs, and i recently discovered documents to go which does everything i want except change the orientation!
many thanks asdfjklqwerty!
I use this, AAHRotate0-90.CAB or AAHRotate0-270.CAB on my Touch Pro.

I just searched for these cabs. I can only find them on a Chinese website which I can't read. It requires login to download the files. Does anyone have these cabs and could they be posted please.
Thanks

Hi,
you can try this attached cab. Hope it's what you're looking for.
P.S. Cab file extracted from ROMeOS v1.95.4.
Excellent! Works like a charm on my HTC Vox. I know this forum is for Touch Pro, but since I found the software here...

AAHRotate 1.0
I do it with AE Button, but if you have SK Tools, these shortcuts will also do it (use the shortcut manager if you want; these probably work with the free version, too):
Code:
Portrait:
1#\Windows\skstart.exe #DMO_P
Landscape:
1#\Windows\skstart.exe #DMO_L
I have been looking through all the settings on the D2 to manually change the screen to landscape as I used to be able to do on the Touch cruise but without success the G-Sensor is a bit of a hit and miss and only works on some programmes. I would like to use landscape with Navigon 7 anyone know how to do this ?
The TF3D interface does not work in landscape on default, there is an app available for it here
you can go to settings>all settings>system tab>screen and change the orientation, somehow this only works one time for me, it just changes back automatically.
in Navigon (I don't have this) there is probably an option where you can change the orientation
edit: change the orientation to landscape in the screen settings, and then start navigon.
Tnks for the reply TK tried the tweak did not seem to do anything apart from restarting the D2 there are no settings in the screen tab for changing orientation just alighn, Cleartype and Text Size.
will have to keep looking.
somehow the tweak options end up in the all programs list, found under Manila Rotate On/Off.
maybe this option came with one of the programs installed ^^
After you do the manilla landscape you soft-reset and then it should be there for you to rotate stuff. Another app to try out is G-Config. Search for that on the forum. You can add automatic rotation to apps that don't support it after you add them to the list you soft-reset and then try it again. I've managed to put MSN, Skype etc on it.
installed Advanced_Configuration_Tool_v3.3, start and then:
screen -> show orientation settings -> yes
then i configured the one button i can configure (left-bottom: press and hold):
settings -> all settings -> personal -> buttons -> <rotate screen>

What about the phone app? When you're in navigation Mode with MN|7 and a call comes in, the phone app is in portrait, right?
Does anyone know, how to turn the phone app to landscape?
