G-Sensor Wake Up Utility - Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps

I don't know if I'm looking for something that exists:
I miss having a proximity sensor on my Hero, but if there was a "shake to wake" G-sensor application I could use with the phone, I'd be very happy.
Is there a utility I can download, or a tweak I can make?
Thanks!

iirc "sheriff android" does this.

Thank you!

Poorly-responding Keypad

On my Tilt I usually dial via touchscreen using smart dialing on the standard keypad. I've disabled vibrating feedback for keypad presses but it's still abysmally slow and drops keypresses. Any advice?
Try disabling screen tap sound in settings. Check out kaisertweak and it's wiki if you are noting keyboard unresponsiveness in general.

ooo.i have the same problem (i guess). But i have screen taps sounds disabled. i'm a complete newbie with pocket pc, And what exactly to do?
I have already disabled the tap sounds. I have Kaisertweak. Do you have anything in particular you could point out in the wiki for me?
Does your touchscreen work well in other programs? There is a known issue with this.
There are several settings in Kaisertweak listed under TouchFLO for sensitivity/finger pressure/sound and I believe nikagl has recently updated the xml adding extremely high settings for some of these. I think the .exe has also been updated.
Some users have turned off scrolling (TouchFLO/scroller) also in KaiserTweak to get the screen to respond a bit faster - that's a bummer if you like scrolling tho...
Make sure you soft reset after changing these values.
Cheers-
Touch works fine everywhere else. I've disabled TouchFlo and will see if that helps.
I've also read here that you can increase the screen sensitivity threshold, as explained above as follows: With Registry Editor (Resco), go to HKLM/drivers/touchscreen sensitivity something, increase the rate.
The new Mobile Shell 2.0 has its own sort of dialer that works perfectly without lag so it's obviously just bad coding for the standard dialer.
Having used the Shell lookup some more I've decided it's nice but it can't really replace the default dialer because the phone function is central to that screen. Does anyone know of a nice super-crisp dialer that also has smart dial?

2 New Utils.. (BrightLock and TouchControl)

Hey guys, I thought I'd share with you all 2 new toys for our Kaisers/Tilts.
BrightLock is a small utility that gets installed in to your startup folder. It will stop the Tilt/Kaiser from dimming the display every time it is locked. It replaces the needed for a script to hack the registry each time.
Touch Control gives you an easy way to tweak your touch screen sensitivity without having to dig through other tweak tools.
Both are available on my RapidShare folder:
http://rapidshare.com/users/C7VW57
I'll put them up as packages for Chefs when I get a chance.
isnt the touch control already there when you have touch flo or if you have any kind of cube installed already...?
I don't know, I don't install either with my roms.
Thank you for both of those, I don't use the cube either. These will help man.
I don't use touch but BrightLock fixes the last (non-driver or lack of driver ) issue I have with the Tilt.
Thanks
TouchControl isn't related to the HTC Touch or cube. It's just for adjusting the sensitivity on the actual touchscreen. Same as recalibrating only you look at it as a slider.
brightview seems utility..touchcontrol seems bloatware
brightview seems utility..touchcontrol seems bloatware
thanks tho for the apps
BrightLock is a great idea, BUT it changes the backlight setting to 10 seconds on my TyTN II, an unacceptably short amount of time. Maybe there's a simple fix for this issue??
-Bob-
doesn't kaisertweak already give that change for touch sensitivity?
Can anyone give me the registry entry to try the backlight fix, since the BrightLock app won't work for me. I'm wondering if a manual edit causes the backlight setting to change to 10 seconds too.
EDIT: Found it!
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\LockLevel
There REG_DWORD Key called LockLevel can be set between 0-10 (0=0%, 10=100% locklevel backlight brightness)
EDIT 2: It looks like editing the LockLevel has the same result as BrightLock, the backlight turns off after 10 seconds. I'm way too dimwitted to be able to function with only 10 seconds of backlight, so I guess there's really no fix for me.
Thanks.

TouchControl Requirements
I installed TouchControl on my Tilt and it is requesting a newer version of .NET. What version does this program require?
I am using the latest official ROM version from HTC.

They are compiled against .NET 3.5
Rebecker, that's really odd. All I'm doing is forcing LockLevel to 10 at boot then dumping from memory. It's a quick fix to save the user from having to setup scripting/etc.
LockLevel should ONLY affect the brightness when locked.
I tried "Bright Lock" and it changes the locklevel key to 10 (full brightness) at power On, but has the side effect of changing the key "Battery Timeout" to 7 (seconds) which dims the display in 7 seconds when the phone is unlocked as well as locked.
Haven't found a way to get a bright screen at power-up to see the screen to unlock it (with a short timer like 7 seconds), then revert to the backlight timer setting (like 30 seconds or more) once unlocked!
There is another thread dealing with short backlight issues and it seems that LockLevel and BatteryTimeout are linked somehow???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351709
What do you think the BatteryTimeoutTemp key does?
EDIT
In any case, if you REMOVE Bright Lock, then re-name the DeviceLock key like the referenced thread describes and soft reset, BINGO, the Backlight comes on bright for about 7 seconds when locked AND it stays On for the duration of the settings>backlight timer when un-locked!

VibeTonz (vibrate on screen tap) like app for WM??

i've been searching for an application that can make my phone vibrate on screen taps. i would try to use this instead of sound on screen tap because it looks like a good idea. so i'm very interested in this kind of app and i hope i'm not the only one.
during my search i found something called VibeTonz, but this does not come as a program, it is a feature built in some devices.
here on xda i found some threads about dialpad vibration and this thing works, so i think it would be possible to create something that would make phone vibrate on any screen tap.
P.S.: sorry for my bad english. hope you could at least understand what i'm talking about
yeah it would be cool to see something like this, the dial pad vib program is freaking sweet.
hmm.. yeaa that would be kinda cool. btw.. ur english is perfect
you mean something like this:
Phone pad vibrate when tapping numbers?
as i mentioned above, there is a cab like this on xda forums, but it only works for dialpad. what i need is something that could make the phone to vibrate on ANY screen tap. what i don't like about dialpad vibrate cab is that it makes the phone vibrate just as long as you keep dialpad number pressed,so if you just tap the number too fast there is no vibe or it is too short and so it's not suitable for fast typing. the thing that i would like to see would vibrate for fixed time (let's say 100ms) on any screen tap (including dialpad tap). i think this kind of touch screen response would make the use of it much easier and faster. but i can't know that because i didn't try this.
maybe if someone has a VibeTonz enabled phone could tell as about experiences with this kind of response?
anyway, thanks for your efforts and i'm glad to see there are some people supporting this thread and some interested in this.
I am searching for this app to, it would give great fingerpushing feedback. It will feel like pushing "real" buttons on your screen
About the vibrating dialpad: i thought i read somewhere that you can alter it so that it will vibrate instantly.
I second that!
I'd love this kind of app. My kaiser has particularly flat keys on the keyboard and there's no travel to them. So I stumbled across the dialer vibrate cab while looking for a solution. I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to mod that cab's registry entries to make it vibrate on any keypress, such as while typing... but so far no luck. A touchscreen vibrate cab would be awesome too. I think any program that is possibly developed should include settings for both the touchscreen and the keyboard.
Someone with a little spare time want to work on these ideas? Pretty please?
Bump!
I didn't have time to try this, but if you are interested here is the link:

Looking for torch application for Diamond

Hi,
I am looking for a torch application for my Diamond. I am thinking of something like this but it should disable the automatic dimming of the Diamond's screen: http://www.freewareppc.com/misc/plamp.shtml
This application would be nice but whenever you would like to use the torch in dark the screen is dimmed down.
Is there another application which does overdrive this feature or is there a coder around which could programm this?
Thanks

just touch the screen again...
no, no, but you are right. The application should also prevent the Diamond from locking automatically (like e.g. the TomTom app does ).
But the dimming feature has nothing to do with touching the screen...
You can disable the automatic dimming/brightening control from the power options.

you r right. wasn't paying attention. ma3a20 has the obvious solution.
btw, i have a small app, an exe file that is a torch that can be round or square (whole screen) and can also change colours. it doesn't seem to be influenced by the automatic dimming. i'll uploaded it for you. try it!
here u have it, hope you'll like it:
http://rapidshare.com/files/133395068/plamp.exe
oops! it the same....my bad.
... and it is influenced by the light sensor. Just start it in direct sunlight and hold your finger over the sensor. It will dimm...
Changing the system settings every time is not very convenient...
I try it, but the autodim function work, and the tool not force the light to the max
I make a mortscript batch for resolve this
1 - copy this folder anywhere
2 - you must edit the PocketLight.mortrun for indicate location of the folder
3 - excute MortScript.exe for registry add
That's all !
If anyone can make a cab or auto installation, it woold be nice !

Working for me too, thank you. To increase further the light i suggest to set brightness bar (in power settings) to its maximum (but leave autodim on).

[REQ] looking for screen turn on app.

hello
iam looking for application turn on the screen by remapping the hard capacitive keys. not the sound rocker or the power buttons.
any idea please?
i tried most of applications and xposed modules but not work, also all the application using the sensor, turn on the screen by swapping only which make the screen on all the time whenever the sensor moved front of any thing.
also application with turn on by taping the sensor is ok for me.
could you suggest guys?
thanks in advance for all

you need a custom kernel for that to work, check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/#kernels
Please only flash things appropriate for your phone and ROM.
