compability with diamond 2 / Topaz?

I'm trying to replace redial.exe in the windows-folder, but it seems to be a read-only file. Any idea how I can get around this and replace the file with your VJ-version?

I'm getting really tierd of calling people by accitently double tapping the hands free button.

Doesn't work on my HTC Diamond

I'm having the same problem as DeepShark had. I read very carefully you instructions and I read all the comments. But It doesn't work.

My HTC Diamond says I can not override the Redial because it is a read only file on the ROM.

I even installed the security warning, Nothing!

I tried to restart the device, nothing!

My intetion is to use the MS Voice Command by assigning the Redial to the Voice Command program. Please help, I really would like to be able to use MS Voice Command with my wired headsets.

Phone: HTC Touch Diamond

ROM: 1.93.421.2 WWE

ROM Date: 07/10/08

stelio2k - I used Resco explorer to access the propoerties of the redial file and uncheck "Read only". After that u can replace that file.

If u wanna access your MSVC, just press and hold.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daviz:
Think Vijay555 has not been active these days. Went to his forum and it is quite.

I have some problems understanding the instruction from Vijay555 and hope that someone can clarify the steps.

There are five files from the VProof zip.

1) Original_SDDialer.exe

2) Redial.exe

3) SDDialer.exe

4) VJRedial.exe

5) VJSDDialer.exe

Below are the instruction from Vijay555.

Step 1: Drop the files Redial.exe and SDDialer.exe into your \windows\ folder.

They will overwrite the original HTC apps, but don't worry, just delete those two files to get the originals back. I also enclose the originals in the .zip.

Ok, so extract the two files into \windows\.

Step 2: Next, somewhere on your PDA, find the app you want to launch instead of the double tap or long hold on the headset.

Make a shortcut to that app (use gsfinder or similar on your PDA). Then, you must rename the shortcut VJRedial.lnk or VJSDDialer.lnk as appropriate.

Step 3: Copy these two shortcuts into your \windows\ folder, and hey presto, customisable headset commands.

My questions are

1) What is the purpose of VJRedial.exe and VJSDDialer.exe. I see no mention of placing the file anywhere.

2) I have replaced the Redial.exe and SDDialer.exe into /Windows/ but every time I double tap, my phone will perform the redial function. And when I press and hold, my phone will activate the Voice commander. Not sure what steps I have performed wrong.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vijay555:
Hiya!

If I remember correctly, and it's been a while, these apps are a variety of my old program VJBrisk.

The theory is that we are replacing the original files, Redial.exe and SDDialer.exe, with replacements that actually start our own programs.

Eg, if instead of launching the Voice commander, you want to launch Mortplayer, find mortplayer on your phone using Resco Exlplorer, gsfinder etc, and make a shortcut to it (copy mortplayer.exe, and then choose "paste shortcut").

Rename the shortcut from Mortplayer.lnk, to VJSDDialer.lnk, and move that into \windows\.

Now, when the phone tries to launch voice commander, it will launch my app, which in turn looks for and launches VJSDDialer.lnk, which is actually Mortplayer.

So the only step really is to find the app you want to launch, make a shortcut to it, and rename it VJSDDialer.lnk, and copy that to \windows\.

The reason your phone continues to perform it's original functions is because the existing files VJRedial.exe and VJSDDialer.exe actually perform the functions of the originals, so you don't "lose" any functionality by installing my app, unless you choose to replace these functions.

Hope that helps!

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] VeenK:
Hi there,

It is always a difficult consideration, "shall I start a new thread on this?". But, I thought it would be good to have this information available to everyone. Please don't discuss specific ROMs or Radios in this thread. Just discuss the effects flashing has on your IMEI and/or Device ID.

Being new to flashing the following question came up. What happens to your IMEI and "Device ID"... (not "Device Name") when you flash a new ROM on your mobile. I asked this question in a specific ROM thread and the answer was... "not sure".

This may be an important question to consider before flashing your ROM. Example, my (paid for) Route66 GPS software and maps only work with my specific "Device ID". This is not the same as your Device Name. This Device ID is unique to your mobile (quoting Route66 support team).

This Device ID can not be found on the sticker at the back of your mobile below the battery. So, it seems to be some hardware or software generated number. On my mobile it looks like the following:

9934xx27xx089013B

(The xxx-es are just replacements for some other numbers.)

My IMEI number looks like the following

358xxx010xx4859

(The xxx-es are just replacements for some other numbers.)

I learned that the IMEI number on the sticker may differ from the one stored in your phone. If you press *#06# on your phone your 'stored' IMEI will appear. In my case the following showed up:

358xxx010xx485901

Note the additional two numbers not found on your sticker. Flashing your ROM or Radio can have an effect on these last two numbers I understand. They are some kind of version indication. So if you need to keep the same "full" IMEI number for some software to run on your phone the following question needs to be asked:

How will flashing the ROM or Radio effect your IMEI number?

How can we change the IMEI back to the original number?

Back to Device ID

In addition there are several questions unanswered regarding the Device ID.

Where does it originates from?

Will the Device ID change when flashing a ROM or new Radio?

Can it be changed back?

Do you have any experience with this? What effect did it have on your software? Did you compare your IMEI and Device ID before and after flashing? Do you know how to change the numbers back? Write in this thread please! (again I am new to flashing and if some of this information is not correct please let us know)

Thanks,
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] scotchua:
Moved this out of Rom Development as it has nothing to do with that topic, and would caution users against posting their IMEI numbers on a public site. That being said, please feel free to discuss the effects to your heart's content.
[Touch 3G General] Chealuxx:
Hi, is there already any solution to disable write protection of the windows folder (ext rom) of the Touch 3g? I'd like to delete some stuff (cabs and sound/movie files) to get more space.

Till now I only found reg-mods or cabs for other phones which most likely wouldn't work on the 3G...
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
I thought the cab / sound / movie files can be easily deleted using file explorer or Total Commander or Resco
[Touch 3G General] Chealuxx:
No Total Comander says "couldn't delete". Property of each file says "write protected", but when I uncheck write protection and close the properties dialogue, it's still the same: I can't delete and when I open properties once more, "write protection" is enabled again.
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
Can you post a few file examples. I'll see what's it like on mine. so we can compare.
[Touch 3G General] Chealuxx:
thanks for your answers, azahidi! Here are two cabs.

When you look at the properties in Total Comander the box "in Rom" is checked, but it can't be changed, because it's greyed out.

What I noticed is that when I copy a file from the windows folder to my memory card, I can uncheck the "Read only" box in properties and when I copy it back to the windows folder, I can rename it. I can even cut it out from the windows folder and paste it to the memory card again, but when I look into the windows folder, it's back again, with "Read only" and "in Rom" enabled.

It seems to be like the system system file protection in Windows, where the system files are being replaced, when deleted...

So my next step was to create a 0 byte text file, rename it e.g. to "GoogleMaps-ms-htc_compressed.CAB" and overwrite the original cab in the windows folder. But the strange thing is that when you open "Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory" the data storage has not changed a bit...

What's actually strange, too, are the figures, in "Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory" under data storage (in German Datenspeicher, so I hope it's data storage in English)

Alltogether: 98.68 MB

Ocupied: 70.27 MB

Free: 28.41 MB

But:

Total Comander shows following figures for my internal storage:

Alltogether ocupied: 206.0 MB

Only windows folder: 180.9 MB

Files in windows\ without subfolders: 169.0 MB

So I think that part of the windows folder is in fact the ext rom, am I right? But there must be also a hidden part of the ext rom, where the protected files are stored... (compare wiki "extended rom".

So is there someone, who could give some explanation / links or knows someone who knows how to unhide and unlock the ext rom...

I'm thinking about to install on my elfin the lcd of HTC JADE ora HTC TOUCH 3g because they have 260000colours instead of 65000 standard elfin lcd.

so the external dimension should be equal isn't it?

I think the problem still exists, but the behaviour is better. No more sound via the phone.

When making a call all goes well. The sound is going via the BT carkit (Nokia ck-7w). After I end the call via the phone (via the nokia button is NOT working), it takes abount 1.5 minutes and then the nokia carkit connection led goes off. Pushing the button for a second and the connection is back within a second.

This shoudn't happen imho.

I also uninstalled and re-installed tnynnt SD TuneUp and saw that it still does speed up the speeds. Without tnyynt sd tuneUp it's like :

The new ROM (version 1.02.931.3) speeds up the load time, updates the 3D drivers, adds a Google search bar to the default home screen and fixes the problem with Bluetooth. (note: as we’ve not had any problems with Bluetooth here, I can’t guarantee that this is right, but according to reports elsewhere, it is.)

is there a way to chack for the 3d drivers?

I've got the version of WM 6.1 that was leaked for the XV6900 and because I've got my work email, the phone will erase itself after 5 incorrect password attempts.

Hey!

Well today I got my first scratch that is visible with the screen turned on. I heard that you can remove scratches with a product called 'Brasso', but I was wondering if this will cause more damage to my screen. Is it safe to use on my phone? And will it damage my screen more?

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] StevePritchard:
I thought Brasso was for cleaning metal, I didn't know it had any effect on plastic.

In the past I have taken scratches out of plastic with both Jewellers Rouge (a fine white powder used to take scratches out of glass), and T-Cut (a auto-body pain restorer with a mild abrasive). Either technique will possibly result in a highly polished area, but this is unlikely to be noticeable when switched on - maybe even less so if you put a screen protector on.

I know the phone isn't glass, but I've taken a very noticeable scratch out of a glass TV screen before now - a scratch with pixels behind seems to magnify, and so makes it very noticeable. You could see the repair when the TV was off, but it looked perfect when the TV was on.

Obviously, there's always a risk you could make things worse by trying to take the scratch out.

Cheers,

Steve.

Should I wait till HTC gives new ROM for HD and then return for warranty?

Its not a burning matter since I got bluetooth headset which works fine.
