As I want to install Android on my Kaiser, I apparently need to figure out what panel type I have. I've tried searching the forum and googling, but I can't figure out what panel I have.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've got a KAIS130.
bump i also cant find much info about this from googling it (how I just found this thread) would like to know always end up giving up not knowing which i need.

I found out by trying. I've got panel type 1
Thanks! After reading that I went for it, seems mines panel 2, I thought when I read somewhere "make sure you use the correct panel type" with no description of a consequence of using the wrong one I though it might brick my phone or something.

Hi All
In my contacts lists I have the windows contacts and the SIM contacts, all there to confuse me.
is there anyway i can only show the windows / outlook contacts when accessing the contacts on my phone ? I dont really want to delete the SIM contacts as I use them in another phone occasionally
Any ideas ?
Cheers
one idea for you, SEARCH
The answer is easy to find. You gotta work for your knowledge on this site.
waste of post instead of helping...i guess so is mine but i would help if i knew or not post at all..
well documented that setting must be cooked into a Rom. If you simply toggle the Registry Key it will reset itself!

Reboot, many reports that it doesn't survive a soft reset/power-down & up.

It has worked for me when I have reboot numerious times, after flashing 3 different roms L26, Dutty's and others. Some of the programs I use require soft resets after installation. I usually have to got through at least 4 resets to get my programs and tweaks installed properly.

Nice Answer and terribly helpful that.
I did infact try a search which brought little that would help other than a hundred or so posts containing the odd word.
Please stop having a go at those who want some seemingly simple help advice. If you know it GIVE IT.....
I use a range of different forums and all have been great to use with a wealth of information to help and guide us mortals out of a hole as well as offering info on how to make the best of things. These forums are backed up by some pretty knowledgeable folk. This is one of the best I've used.
However its also one of few forums where some of its members who deem themselves as gods regularly seem to want pound those who simply want some help.
I often read posts on here where people have asked a pretty simple question and got berrated for it. All they get as a response is '...SEARCH..SEARCH...SEARCH......SEARCH.... ' JUST HELP for godsake
C'mon man, theres soooo much info on here ,IT CAN BE hard to search for the right answer especially if the correct search terms or keywords arent being used, it can become frustrating for anyone seeking help and therefor easier just to create a new post. No ones fault just the sign of a great forum.
Please though....have patience and offer help. We're not all gods
Cheers
use the file under my attachment. it will hide ur sim contacts and it will survive soft resets/power down. This cab was posted under L26's V9 thread.

Glad you found it ssunstone. Some people in these forums can be really anal about giving out info and get off on telling them to search. Sometimes its valid but I see many times when it isnt.
I agree for new users to the site it can be incredibly confusing due to the shear volume of info and threads, added to this is the fear that doing something wrong may brick your expensive device its no wonder that people ask for conformation.
Anyone else have the issue where no matter what I set as my default calendar view, when I open it up it automatically goes to "Agenda" view?
It opens in Month, but ehn immediately changes to Agenda...very annoying I think
Anyone else experienced this? Any solution?
Cheers
Not something I've come across myself, but I'd advise setting the preferences the way you want it then making sure the Calendar app is properly closed (as opposed to just minimised) using the Task Manager to try and get your preferred settings to 'stick'. It's probably worth doing a quick soft reset at that point as well just to be on the safe side.
I must have changed the settings a million times - like I say though, the weird thing is it starts in month mode but changes then to agenda...
Also dont seem to be able to get the phone name to stick - keeps changing to htc_593 or some numbers...
ah well!
Actually, I've just noticed if I open it through programs it does stay on month, it's only if I open it from the today screen...must just be the way it's set up.
Try a search because this topic has been covered before and a tweak was suggested

let me guess... T-Mobile user?
i had the same in my mda c4 (polish dependent operator ERA). nothing worked. just one remedy: GET THAT S..T OFF!
i dont understand why they love that useless Agenda view? maybe it's good for corporate users, i dont know. and i dont care it.

I do not have any problem with this so don't need a tweak. However I can remember a few weeks ago reading about somebody else who did suggested something that he said solved it. If I had tried it or remembered it I would have explained it in my post
However you seem a keen and helpful poster ever willing to help others so why don't YOU try it. Or maybe come up with some other really positive suggestion
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to tell if the optical pad is currently enabled on the Xperia X1 programmatically? Is there a registry setting somewhere that shows the current mode (D-Pad or Optical)?
...I actually don't have an X1 at the moment, otherwise I would have have been able to investigate this more. I've checked through the xda forums and on Google and haven't found any hints on this.
Hopefully, someone has already come across this setting and will be able to point me in the right direction?
Also, a second question... does anyone have any thoughts on how to detect whether the current device is an "Xperia X1"? I'm guessing there would be a registry setting for this.
Thank you -- any information would be very much appreciated.
I know for one that the device info is a .txt document in the windows folder. I have no idea about the D-pad though. I can't imagine you'd be able to tell through the registry, as modes aren't usually controlled through the registry - which is rather used for fixed variables. I think only the driver "knows" the current status. Won't be easy to extract.

Thank you for your prompt response Angelusz. Do you happen to recall the name of the .txt file with the device info?
As for the location of the optical/d-pad mode setting, I actually wouldn't be at all surprised if they stored it in the registry. The setting has to be stored on the system somewhere, and the registry is as good a place as any.
(Sometimes, it's actually beneficial to store things in the registry since then you don't have to worry about creating your own custom file format, or writing file read/write classes.)
Anyone willing to check the registry for such a setting? Or perhaps do a search using the Remote Registry Editor ("Edit->Find")? Maybe a search for "optical" or something?
I'd probably assume that there would be something stored in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers"...
Really, any help with this would be great.
Thanks again.
ModelName.txt - it just sais X1i - or X1a if it's an X1a ofc.
I searched the registry for "dpad" - no results.
Checked HKLM/Drivers - no results.
I still think I'm right.

Thanks for the additional info on the filename and it's contents. So, (just to confirm) the only thing in that file is "X1i" or "X1a"? Or would I have to parse for anything else in there?
Also, thank you very much for doing that search, much appreciated!
Hehe... well, I'm not saying that I'm 100% sure you're wrong, but it wouldn't surprise me if you were ...I'm just saying that the driver has to look somewhere to see whether the optical pad is enabled or not.
They can either use a file or the registry, that's pretty much it. Otherwise a soft-reset or battery drain would cause that setting to be reset.
Okay, one more request, if you don't mind.
Would you (or anyone) be willing to do a registry search for the term "optical" with "Values" and "Keys" checked, in HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE?
I realize that this is a lot to ask, so please feel free to say no. In any case, I really do appreciate all of the time you've spent on this so far.
Thanks again for all of your help!
----------
it is under settings, there you can see the optical pad icon to change the settings.
you can put it on/off and there is a option if you want to use it in ie (internet explorer) and you can adjust the sensitivity.
peace to all
p.s. sorry for my useless english i am from hollan

Yes, just X1i or X1a.
That finds some settings, just some strings. A filename, OpticalJoystick_Setings.exe (the app below post describes) and that's it.

Wow, sorry about the super-delayed response - I didn't see a notification of any new posts come into my email...
Anyway, thank you very much for confirming the data in the text file, Angelusz; and for running the additional registry search. This is very useful and I thank you deeply for taking the time to look into all of this stuff for me!
blackice168: Thank you for your post as well... I saw what you wrote before you deleted it and it was actually quite helpful since I didn't know that about the X1. Turns out that I was asking the wrong question... heh
gizmo1908: Thank you also for your post; and don't worry, your english is actually quite good!
Based on the various posts I now know what to do with the X1; so thanks again everyone!
I hope it's not OT in this section, but I figured it belongs here more than to General...
I've been wondering for quite some time now...is there any guide for how to create the extended lockscreen for I9000 ROM? I've tried searching for it quite a few times, but never managed to find any info about it. Most of the posts mention something along the lines of "I think I saw one somewhere in thread X", but when trying to locate the actual guide, you usually end up going in circles and the guide is nowhere to be found neither here on XDA nor anywhere else.
So - is there any such guide? And if it isn't, could someone who knows how to make the extended menu perhaps spare a few words/tips/links? I could probably try to make a proper guide out of them once I'm succesful in creating the extended menu myself...
I notice there isn't many themes/ROMs that offer the extended menu. I think having a proper guide would benefit everyone - the extended menu is SO handy...

Oh, it's in Vibrant section...damn...never occured to me to actually look there. (Like I needed another proof that this splitting of Galaxy S forums into hundreds of subforums was a very bad decision...oh well...)
Thanks a lot!
