im gonna reflash anyway so im not really worried about it lol.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
i'd like long_iE (if it exists) to be opera. ("\Storage Card\Program Files\Opera\OperaLaunch.exe")

short_ie to be default - Celetask.exe
[HTC Excalibur] djquick:
I think you should install both pie and opera, this way we'll have a choice
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
this is just for Mikey1022
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
does it matter that my Opera is already set as default broswer. (Option in opera mobile makes it as default)

Do i unzip the zip files or just dump them in \windows folder?
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
i dont think so all this dose is changes the internet button
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Do i unzip the zip files or just dump them in \windows folder?
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
this is what ive got so far

ie as default bowser button

or

opera as default bowser button

or

celetask as default bowser button

or

?????????????????????????????

so what should i put as 4
[HTC Excalibur] UnicornKaz:
could you further explain why there's 2 reg files within the "My Extras.zip" ???

do I import both or just 1 ??

CMyApplication1 (1).reg -->> 32KB

CMyApplication1 (2).reg -->> 16KB

Most

of the keys to the pages numbers looks identical !!

page 1, 10, 11, 12 ...etc

very confusing reg file !! :confused::confused:

~~~

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CHome\CMyApplication\Page1]

"TITLETEXT"="My Programs"

"TEXT2"="Edit Word Document"

"SK2TEXT"="New"

"TEXT1"="Word Mobile"

"SK2URL"="\\Windows\\pword.exe; \\My Documents\\Templates\\New Word Document.doc"

"ACTIONURL"="\\Windows\\pword.exe"

"PICTURES"="\\Windows\\CHome_MyProgs_Word.png"

"GUID"="{2F710F22-9F19-43fa-8F35-9927D246B078}"
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
if you mean short_IE.lnk.tgz short_IE2.lnk.tgz dont unzip them just put the in your windows folder and click on Default Browser.ccs with resco or you could put it in the windows folder to and make a shortcut to it
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
yeah i figured it out :)

even place a short cut to the css file in the "My Tools" folder :)

now i have to redo the camera for celetask lol
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
look at the path of the reg keys...they are 2 different keys

you import both.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
ummmmm lol

im not sure....i knowi changed my mind about celetask being my short_camera. I want BL Toggler. Since the back light turns off so soon, i dont know how to extend the time on it. (used to be able to in homescreen)
[HTC Excalibur] UnicornKaz:
hold on a minute ... upon further look ...

the "CMyApplication1 (1).reg" is twice the size of "CMyApplication1 (2).reg"

and it also contained both path of both reg files ...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CHome\CMyApplication]

and

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CMyApplication]

:confused::confused:

looks to me like the contents of file #2 is already inside file #1

:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
do you mean Backlight Toggler?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
yeah, that will be my camera shortcut cause on the net alot on this phone and the light turns off after 10 seconds :(
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Got it :)

short_camera.lnk

61#"\Storage Card\Program Files\Mossywell\BLToggler\BLToggler.exe"
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
it wont work Mikey1022

but you could try
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
ill be posting v20 tomorrow

1) Added a program that changes Default internet Button two

1a) IE or

1b) Celetask or

1c) Opera mini

2) Added program to install Opera 4.1 if you what
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
is that css file written correctly?

I looked at it and it says message button, a couple of places in it.

Suppose to be for the camera shortcut.
[HTC Excalibur] Profezza:
V.20: including any more graphics, bronzeres swapper?

OMG it just occurred to me that eT9/xT9 selection should probably be in the rom too! No?

Anything to stop the keyboardmap threads.
[HTC Excalibur] ItsDon:
Wow, I'm up for V20! This will include Opera Mini 4.1, right? I'm still on V5 but keep marveling at all the cool upgrades you are throwing in. Having the choice to kill PIE in favor of Opera is simply awesome. Thanks Ricky....
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
I know you guy's have probably explained this 100 time's but I don't want to get the over 100 page's to find it lol. I am not tryying to be one of those lazy kid's that want everything done for them but 100 page's come on haha. I have a HTC S621 and I have no idea how to put this ROM on my phone, if any one can help me it will be much appreciatted.

Thank you in advance
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Just read the posts towards the beginning of the thread. They should be extremely helpful.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
there is a beautiful thing on top of this thread box. Its called "search this thread" :)
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Hey carltmac...this thread is probably a little easier to understand as far as general flashing questions. Reading the thread with rickwyatt's additions may be a tad more advanced. Here's the thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=374890. Hope it helps.
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
start posting your working eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmaps i will make a swich that can change them from uk,usa,???,????
[HTC Excalibur] renesandy:
hey guys!

first and foremost, loving the ROM! Thanks for taking your time and making this great ROM! Now, is there any way to disable or remove CPhotoDialer. It came embedded into the ROM and I really dont wanna take the time out to set it up via a registry editor in my phone. Is there any way I can edit the registry values via my PC?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
can you make it an option at first startup?? like the voice command program?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
its not embedded in the rom. Its a program, that can be removed.

Yes you can edit the reg's on your PC and then transfer them to your phone and click on them, to get them merged.
[HTC Excalibur] renesandy:
Thanks for the speedy response. By merged I just stated the obvious, meaning it came with the ROM. Regarding registry editing, which program do you reccomend, and just in case I decide to be lazy, regarding removal, how do I go about doing it?
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
im having trouble getting ChomeIconColorChanger to work. when i click ok nothing happens, what am i doing wrong. i have it working on v12 of the rom
[HTC Excalibur] djquick:
lmao, smart ass......lol. Thats something I would've put.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
We are talking about CPhotoDialer, correct?

If you wanna disect the removal.....there is a exe file, like 20 pics located in the \windows folder. ( i wouldn't bother) All that doesnt take up that much space.

Just open the XML file you are using in your Home folder, look towards the bottom of the file for a part called Order. Remove any panels you dont want to be visible on your homescreen. Hence, if you change to any other XML file with panels, you need to edit those the same way.

Good luck.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
i was having the same issue. I think a soft reset did the job. eventually i got it.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
You're too slow. LOL
[HTC Excalibur] oldcotton:
What does rick mean in the blow quoted? I've read this serveral times, still can't figure out what's meaning of it. Please forgive my ignorance, I'm not a native english speaker.:)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
he gives you the option from earlier roms to install just the programs you want installed. They are located in his "my extras" zip folder page 1
[HTC Excalibur] oldcotton:
Thanks for the lightning response. However, if I understand correct, the applications in rick's "my extras" have already been integrated into v1-v18. There's no need to provide "my extras" for v1-v18. Or he means the "my extras" is for versions other than v1-v18? I got a little bit confused here. :confused:
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
no not all the programs are intigrated into his roms, i think certain ones start from version 16 and on.

Edit: read his Old version.txt you will see what roms were getting (having) at the time.
[HTC Excalibur] ItsDon:
Quite a few posts back there was a quote from someone stating that the latest Microsoft ROM 080408 was faster than the original version I'm using (V5), is this true? Besides the BT stack are there any other changes? I'm planning on updating to the forthcoming V20 (with Opera) and want to know what to expect.

Anyone know if/when there will be another 'Microsoft' version posted? I figure if I update every 15 versions or so I should be good :D
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
ok im using version 19 and this is killing me. i cant get my fav programs to change or the color icons to work. i even reflashed. when i use the program to edit the my fav programs it shows where i changed then and even in the reg but when i refresh my home screen nothing has changed. what is going on?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Do you guys know where the feature is where, if you are viewing a text message, it wont snap back to your homescreen after like 5 seconds?
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Tegic eT9 USA English/T-Mobile Keyboard

Ricky, please use the Tegic eT9 USA English/T-Mobile Kryboard, "Z", "0", "@" in other words, all of the {KEYS} works very well with ALL your ROM's thus far, so I'm requesting you to add this eT9 version in your next V20 ROM........!This will make the Mouse happy, you know who I'm talking about.....!:D;)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
That would be the home screen timeout setting in Settings... where you change between different homescreens. It's all the way at the bottom :)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
That did it....ty

What is multi-press timeout and confirmation timeout used for?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It's when you use the retarded T9 mode... you know.. you press a number key and get a letter.. Well the time it waits for you to press it again before it advances to the next letter is what that setting is. Useless for us, since we have a qwerty keyboard, IMO. :)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Cool, thanks, for that info :)

One more question....at least on this forum :D

where do we set the path to the icons (ex.. Messaging, Calendar, IE..) for the MRU.

I did place alor of unsed icons into a folder like NLarge did...but when i clear the mru.. 3 of the icons show up as broken path.

Any idea
[HTC Excalibur] carltmac:
Hey I did read for about 45 minute's but I am still completely lost..... can some one give me a quick walk through because I don't know how to unlock my phone or to "Flash" it with a "ROM". Please help me because this is getting very frustrating.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
first off find a file called "SDA App unlock" in my signature. run it on your phone, restart phone.

unzip the rom folder to a folder.

Remove memory card, if you have one.

Make sure that your active sync program is connected.

double-click on the .bat file. (in the rom folder)

FOLLOW the Dos command instructions to the T

Hold your breath and cross your toes, that everything goes well.

Not responsible for any mess ups that occur.

Good luck.
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
could you try this eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt and make sure it works for me plz
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
testing it now...give me a sec

Yes works fine for me...all the symbols and Z* works :)
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Will Not Work!

With this file, you will continue to have the same problems, but with the file that I gave you in the above post, it will correct all the keyboard problems. You can lead a horse to the water, but you cannot make him drink the water..............!:D
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
what are you talking about...i use English (not UK) layout and it works perfect.

What wont work?
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
i cant see it were is it
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Coming In A PM

Oh! i will send it to you in a PM!:D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Quit talking out of your ass... The file works just fine! It's clearly intended for a TMobile Dash.
[HTC Excalibur] Shining Light:
Is there a way to turn off the vibrate when it turns on and off?
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
try this for me and till me if it works this ant finshed yet so far uk and usa keymap
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
I second that motion :)
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Are you installing it after you have installed the ROM version..........!My version is the T-mobile keyboard with symbols:D, more power to you....!:D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Ricky dont worry man. The text file you posted initially works just fine...
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
there will be a folder that you drop in to your windows folder and i will put in v20
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Works perfect
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
thanks Mikey1022 what should in put as the other to keymaps

and should i put is as when the phone frist boots or should i put it in My Tools\Extras ?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
more keymaps....Spanish, italian, German, so on..... (most popular ones)

First boot up.

Less headaches and postings, in the long run

Cab File version

I will send you the cab file version and you can test it out for yourself, it works with all of your ROM's like a charm...................!z,@,0,x everythings works on the keyboard........!:D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Those text files can be found in the original eT9 cab that Kavana posted in his thread. Rick can extract all those txt file in just dump them in windows directory in his ROM.
[HTC Excalibur] wirelezzwizzerd:
Probably noob question, but how to change the date format from short to long?

I changed the CHome_240x320.cpr file by adding Mode = "Long" like it worked in standard XML, yet it did not work for the cpr file (the sliding panels did not work and I had to reflash my ROM).
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Actually can you have it both...first boot up and in "My tools" in case someone sells the phone, for example. He can change the layout more easier by going into the folder and switching.

An idea.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Tech give it up dude....there is no problem. lol

Breath in and out. dont forget the out part of it. lol
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:

[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Yeah....! Oh! what about one for our Arabic brothers.....!;) Just do the whole world........!
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Arabs are my brothers? wow. I need to sit and have a talk with my mother :D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
What's the point ? There's no Arabic characters on the keyboard... lol
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
so you are trying to say...the Excalibur is not sold in Arabic countries, cause of that?? :p
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Noob question... :D

How can i unflag the "Incoming_bg" from read-only to be able to replace it?

I tried Resco but it wont change the attributes.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Just overwrite it using Activesync.... that's what I did and it works fine :)
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
That kinda cracked me up... You guys are some characters.
[HTC Excalibur] firejdl:
shadow icons

I installed the shadow icons from My Extras.zip following the directions exactly. I get red "x"s in place of my icons no matter how many times I reboot my phone, unless I switch back to the original icons. It also somehow wiped out my CPhotoDialer registry settings apparently, as I now have none listed on my home screen.

Also, I ran the Tegic eT9 US English.CAB file earlier and noticed that my ; and : keys don't work...I just get a , or . no matter how long I hold them. Makes it kind of hard to get to Web sites when you can't type http:// :D

Thanks for all your hard work rick.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
We need to have some fun. These forums get to serious at times. :D
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Find a user by the name "Technology" and ask him for the fix.

LMFAO
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
LMAO! He can fix anything.... I mean, he's a developer for God's sake! Or something... lol
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
Thanks for the info. I'm sorry it's a little late (I didn't get a chance to use my computer this weekend) since it seems that Ricky has already added this functionality to the latest ROM. I appreciate your help.
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
ive had to take out Italian for some reason is will only let me put 5 keymaps in the ccs

Sure, share the love :p I don't know where I got mine; it was a couple days ago and everyone was saying to get that file to fix keyboard issues. It fixed some of them, just not all apparently.

Mikey, I couldn't find an eT9 file posted by you unless you meant the eT9.Excalibur.0409.keymap.txt file rick posted? the , and . lines in that are different to mine, so I'll give that a shot later when I can find my phone again. Thanks.

You know that you got to push the "alt key" first before you push the "; : key" and that's how you get all the upper case characters anyway, make sure you are doing it correct. It will be in your mailbox in a few....................!:D
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
I meant Ricky posted it

Sorry for the confusion...i was laughing about something, when i wrote that posting.
[HTC Excalibur] firejdl:
Really? I've always done it by just holding down the button to get the 'second' key - ie. hold down the g key and you get a /, hold down the , key and you get a ;, etc. That's always been the preferred method for me; I never touch the alt key.

Holding , on a stock T-mo Dash rom gives a ;.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
thats correct...you actually are wording it backwards though. pressing the long , gives you the ;
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
ok iv got all six keymaps working now could you try it for me to see if it works for you

Would you like Tech, to have the honors? :D

This is not the T-Mobile Stock ROM, this is the Ricky UK underground ROM, a totally different animal. I figured you were doing it wrong, but still test my Tegic eT9 T-Mobile keyboard..........!:D
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Yeah Right!

Yeah right...........!(LOLoooooooLOL):D
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
How are we suppose to test it, hense I dont know how the layouts are suppose to be for those Countries?

Although there were some differences on some keys for the couple that i checked?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Ricky would you know where to repath the shorcuts in the MRU to a different path?

i move a couple of shortcuts in the start Menu into a folder inside start menu

\windows\start menu\xtra shortcuts\IE.lnk

MRU still thinks its in

\winodws\start menu\IE.lnk

and i get a broken link.

Needs this fixed for when i Reset the MRU
[HTC Excalibur] Svoms:
wait is there a way to remove programs from the rom on my own? the ones built into it
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
If you do that why not flash his "Vanilla" edition and add the programs you want.
[HTC Excalibur] qwikndrty:
For anyone who needs it, here's the Tegic eT9 cab file.

I have TMobile and liked the "press and hold for character" feature and this cab file works great! The only character I found doesn't work while holding, is the colon (":") symbol. The rest of the keys work just like a stock WM6 Tmobile Dash would as I've found.

Thanks for the help. But now something else has surfaced. Probably a dfu, but I can't enter ip addresses properly. I dare say the e9t has something to do with it. When I am trying to set the IP address for T-Zones GPRS, I cannot get the period key to deliver a period it only delivers a :. I have tried combinations of modifier keys but no luck. Also when I press SYM, it fires up the camera.

Is there a trick to running the e9t or is that included in the flash.

FYI I went straight to v3. Should I dop back perhaps?

Hey Ricky,

Is there a cab you can make to like change the color of the time?

Lets say to red, royal blue, pink, whatever.
[HTC Excalibur] nitroshot:
I use that HTC streaming media player and Google Maps a lot it would be great to have them preinstalled. The new Yahoo 2 go is pretty sweet as well. Let me know what you plan on including it may be worth the flash upgrade :)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Why would you want to preinstall google maps on your phone and not your card?

Using phone memory for google maps?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Can you make me one completely naked??

I have all the cabs (as you all can see) to the programs i need.

Since i install them on my card not phone :D
