Ok I'm not quite good enough for this untaking but figured I'd put my findings out there.

There are 2 sets of registry setting that change the size of everything on your screen.

HKLM\Drivers\Display\GPE

HKLM\System\GWE\Display

Entries= LogicalPixelsX & LogicalPixelsY appear in both

Normally they are 96x96, I changed them to 120x120 (+25%) and now everything on my screen is 25% bigger. The Topber Icons are now 20x20 pixels instead of 16x16. Now you can make this what every % bigger you want, but the key is everything in the ROM must be scaled to this size. All images, everything or certain features may not load. For example I have WinMo G.S and because my CPR for the Start Menu is not scaled it will not load on screen. Here's a screen shot of what my screen looks like now.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] biscuits1978:
All of the guides I've been seeing are tailored toward 192 pixel resolution instead of 96. I've been messing with changing the Start menu graphic, among others, and it would be nice to have an icon legend as a reference so that other users can know which icon to change. The numbers for the VGA ones aren't matching up with the QVGA ones.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I tried entering 192 in my tilt and the items became way too big. The start Menu Icon was off screen. Luckily I have a registry editor I can use from my pc to change it back otherwise I would have been hard reseting a lot.

Some dude telling me that the s730 has GPS chipset for GPS software like Garmin XT, will this work ?
[HTC Wings] zampotta:
I installed Garmin XT and it works, but only with an external bluetooth antenna...
[HTC Wings] spone1:
Only pre-production models had some kind of built-in GPS. Normal S730 phones only have a chip without an antenna, rendering it useless. You will need to use a bluetooth GPS in order to navigate using Garmin/Tomtom/McGuider.
[HTC Wings] Rokubungi:
Whether GPS does work within HTC S730?

Hi everyone.

And to zampotta: Which release version of Garmin XT have you installed on your smartphone, and how did you connect external BT antenna with S730?

Thanks for your answer, in advance.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] VeenK:
Hi there,

Listen, Robert Ferris created a great little tool BAF GPS Toggle (link). I really use it all the time. However, as you can see in my screenshot it does not go well with a Touch Pro visually. It is really difficult to open and start with a stylus as the space is very limited and often I open an adjoining program/function....

As Robert seems to be busy and said not to have time to keep developing this further, I think it is up to us to make the necessarey adjustments. If I want to do that,... Where do I need to make adjustments, how can I change the today line to fit the text? Where are the images, so I can increase their sizes? And would that do it?

Not only would it make a solution, but it would be fun to learn to do this myself as well.

By the way, I am leaving China for Australia and am not sure how often and how quick I will have access to internet. So if I don't reply immediately you know why.

Thanks for your advice!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] reborn64:
I don't know about your program specifically but you can change the size of the text displayed by going to Settings->System->Screen

In there there is a tab called 'Text Size', you can change the size of your text there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] VeenK:
Thanks for the suggestion. However, that would change all text sizes... not this individual program line....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] reborn64:
From the looks of it, the icon on the left next to the text is the cause. On a 320x240 screen (on the developers site) it displays as the same size as the text. But when you run it on a VGA screen the icon appears half the size.

The developer has to make this cosmetic change or you can resource hack the program to try to replace the icon (if it'll work) :cool:

...Sorry, just tried this for you, it won't change the line height if you resource hack the program. The author will have to make the changes internally to the dll.

I want to reflash to my oem rom using the idiots guide on the Kaiser wiki. Does this also change the radio back to the original radio as well? The reason being is that when I install Manilla or WAD (basically any major Today screen replacement my radio does not work (no signal.)

Hi people, many of the forum users here uses rapidshare links for their downloads. I would really like to download the themes from this thread but I'm unable to do so because of the rapidshare links.

[General Questions and Answers] PinkishBoy:
Can anyone please help me? Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] vale|46:
Are you behind a network with many users? If yes, then someone is downloading stuff already with the same external IP address. If no, then it's your ISP that's sharing the same external IP with many users. Which file are you trying to download? Maybe I can upload it to somewhere else for you.

[General Questions and Answers] PinkishBoy:
OMG, thank you so much [deXter]!!! anyway I think zshare is one of the best cos I never encounter problems downloading from it at all!

Well, anyway, do you have any idea how to solve such problems on RapidShare if it keeps on happening?
[General Questions and Answers] [deXter]:
Can't do much about it mate.. there are ways to change your IP address, like switching your modem/router on and off.. but that doesn't always work. You could talk to your ISP about changing your IP. The surefire way would be to look for public proxy servers and use them. but proxies are a messy affair, they're not reliable and might be slow.. well if you really need a file and no one's around, proxies are your only way. But hey, once you get into it, finding a working proxy is a cinch. Then there's also Tor, which is an anonymous network, but it's considerably slow so forget downloading large files with it. It's not meant for filesharing anyways..

Or you could get yourself a free premium account.. there are forums and communities which reward users with a free account on completion of certain posts or ad-surveys..

Don't ask me any further details though :)
[General Questions and Answers] Jed Dignazio:
Rapidshare traces the users IP address to limit each user to a certain amount of downloading per day. To get around this, you need to show the rapidshare server a different IP address.

Here are some methods for doing this:

1. Short-Out the JavaScript:

1. Goto the page you want to download

2. Select FREE button

3. In the address bar put the following: javascript:alert(c=0)

4. Click OK

5. Click OK to the pop-up box

6. Enter the captcha

7. Download Your File

2. Request a new IP address from your ISP server.

Here’s how to do it in windows:

1. Click Start

2. Click run

3. In the run box type cmd.exe and click OK

4. When the command prompt opens type the following. ENTER after each new line.

ipconfig /flushdns

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

exit

5. Erase your cookies in whatever browser you are using.

6. Try the rapidshare download again.

Frequently you will be assigned a new IP address when this happens. Sometime you will, sometimes you will not. If you are on a fixed IP address, this method will not work. To be honest, I do not know how to do this in linux/unix/etc. If this works for you, you may want to save the above commands into a batch file, and just run it when you need it.
[Touch HD General] Adam4U:
I am a new HD owner, and have a problem. When incoming call, the green screen answer button is not reacting, only the "answer" hardware button, any solution to this??

Thank You in advance

Have you installed the hotfix? The HTC site has an update for just this problem.

http://www.htc.com/www/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=179&act=sd&cat=all
[Touch HD General] Griff1:
The Green area is not a button,you answer or reject calls by placing your finger on the white area in between the green and red and sliding left or right.

I hope that makes sense.

As stated above,install the hotfix as it makes the slide action more sensative.
[Touch HD General] Adam4U:
I downloaded the hotfix, but when trying to install, it says, "Please use the correct version to install this hotfix"..:confused:
[Touch HD General] Adam4U:
Thank you...:)...but problem with installing the hotfix...:confused:
[Touch HD General] Griff1:
Once you've run the fix and it fails ok out of the installer and then using file explorer on your device go to the root and you should find a numbered cab file something like 12345678.cab

Run that and it will install.
[Touch HD General] Adam4U:
Thank you for the advice, but no such cab found on device root after oking out from installation...:confused:
[Touch HD General] Vanstra:
The hotfix is an .exe file which you can put on your sd-card.

Go with explorer to the .exe file and select it.

The hotfix is then installed.
[Touch HD General] Adam4U:
Thank you, the problem is solved..:)

I've noticed that it takes quite awhile to Boot up the X1. Is there anyway to possibly speed it up, cause it takes about a minute or longer even after I've done turbospeed and other performance tweaks.

Thanks, I use advance config and noticed something about splash screen settings, will playing around with those make a difference?

Also, yes I did use the search function and the thread's question wasn't really answered, thanks! :)

I only ever shut down the phone if i need to softreset it because it have goon

and yes it takes a long time

but only reason i can see to really turn it off is if i softreset

or have to made do without being able to charge it for a while

and only have to start it up to call once in awhile

but mind you booting it up require pretty much power

so using the wall charger or a usb cable is better if you

have access to any of those options
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
Haha, yeah I'm running a Generic UK R2 rom, it's a bit of an improvement over R1, but I'm guessing that cooked roms will run even bette. I guess I don't turn it off too often, but most of the time it is soft resetting.

Hm, where is the phone lock when starting up? I did not find anything like on my symbian where one has to put in a 'phone lock code' if there is a new sim inserted.

I know there is a "phone lock" but this does not apply when someone changed the sim and starts the phone.

Is there such a setting 'phone lock code when sim changed' at all?

X1i Boot- Up Times

hi all,

I noticed the boot up time was quite slow, until i updated the ROM.

Then i came accross a program called SK Tools, this has noticably sped up my phone considerably. Just do a search for SK tools in this forum and you should find it.

Hope i helped...
[XPERIA X1 General] DeeChan:
Probably yeah.

I recently added back the Xperia animation screen on 'Jack 2.1 lite rom' during boot-which added about 10 seconds to the boot time so you can probably remove that :)
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
Yup, I removed the bootsplash of the Xperia animation and it cut down bootup by a bit. I was wondering about the wait time for the WM splash screen though, it's default at 30 seconds..
[XPERIA X1 General] leobox1:
for the bootsplash, how ui remove it?

for the sktoolls, what settings did u use
[XPERIA X1 General] indy.89:
SK Tools Instructions

Launch SK Tools

Look for the Optimize Button

It will automatically select 3 Tick Boxes for you

select Action at the botton Left of the screen

Make sure performance is selected and click optimise.

Sometimes it soft resets, sometimes t doesnt.

then launch auto clean within SK Tools

You should notice a difference in the boot times... I DiD
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
I actually used Advanced Config Tool(Just Google and you will find it) to remove that "XPERIA" boot splash. Once you've installed it, run it, then go into the icon list that says HTC Animation, and disable it. I was curious if anyone's tried changing the Splash Screen settings where it says "MS splash screen on startup" or the MS timeout on startup.

I just saw the new HTC Touch Pro 2. But as usually, it is not perfect. It is always missing some specs.

I think it would cost at least £1000 SIM-free and, frankly, wouldn't sell to most people, simply because of the price.

Best things in it:

- OLED display

- the projector. Build in a tripod and the TV output is not so important.

What it lacks:

- 50-200mm F/1.8 lens with image stabilization.

- Windows Mobile with CE Core 6.0.

But they won't build such a device, because it would satisfy most people for about 5 years.

I agree the cost might be too high. The 3.5mm headphone socket I don't need as I use the Motorola S9-HD but I agree it is important.

If I need to chose one item it will be the camera. 3.1 is defenetly low for a device is comming in the middle of 2009 and in the mean time lots of competitors like Samsung OmniaHD, Nokia N97 and others are comming with better camera.

[General Topics] l3v5y:
HTC release devices like the TP2 for those that need a keyboard, the Diamond for those that want something small, the HD for those that want films etc. They've realised there is no perfect device, so why not make something for everyone?

Also, those complaining about incremental improvements, look at the iPhone. So, the second gen has 3G. Which it should have had the first time around. That's about the only new thing hardware wise.

Also, no one is forcing you to by HTC. If you love the iPhone so much, go and buy one, and regret it.
[General Topics] gkai:
I read your specs, and while it is good to dream, even maybe hint at a potential HTC engineer what to do next...you should also keep in mind some physical constraints, so here are my few remarks ;-)

a screen of 10 cm of diagonal, and a 5 way dpad seems very difficult to fit in a 59x116mm device. Your screen is 85mm high, add 2*2mm for borders, 7mm up for the front camera and loudspeaker, and u have 10mm to fit a 5 way dpad... difficult! and a zoom bar? forget it ;-)

Fitting an optical zoom in a 17 mm thick device? difficult, u would need to use 45 degree mirror to angle the zoom/captor 90 degree (it will be set in the width of the device)...and then u can forget about the projector...

Also, such arangements (optical zoom OR microprojector) would change the physical layout of your device. Basically, it would look more like the G1 than the touch pro, the DPAD/zoom bar should stay fixed with regard to keyboard to have some room to fit those devices.

USB3 is not supported by snapdragon, so this is not possible (additional control chip is not possible, for space and energy usage reasons)

same for wimax and 802.11n wifi...not sure it support 1080P output either, I think it is 720p. Recording in 1080P/30fps is certainly out of reach of the snapdragon...but even if it could do it, no way u could use such a resolution with the small lens in anything less than bright sunlight or studio lighting. and even then, i am not sure it would be better than 720P. 1080P camcoders need a significant lens opening, you need a lot of photons to get an acceptable signal/noise at 30 fps with so many pixels...

scroll wheel would be very nice! I wonder why this has faded from all current smartphones, it was popular at one time, and for good reasons: some kind of side control is great for navigating in lists, webpage or ebooks...So yes, here I am 100% with you: it is time for a comeback ;)

And last: I think it is not possible to fit a 2100 mAh battery given the size of the device and the presence of a physical keyboard: it would have to be thicker..or without keyboard...batteries with higher energy density could allow it, but they are not available right now, and hoping for such a significant progress would push your dream device to long term future ;-)

Nice, but for the vid recording, how about CCD, its better than CMOS apparantly, and make the image quality really high, as that is what makes a photo look nicer. And seriously, a dream phone should have UMTS 850/900/1700/1900/2100, which is what the XPERIA should have had. :D

I think multi-purposes camera are going back to CMOS. From what I understand, CMOS suffered from image non-uniformity...but this has been mostly solved. On the other hand, CMOS decrease price of supporting circuitry, but also allows for faster framerates. So the new photo/video camera with high framerate video recording (30fps/60fps/even more for slow motion) are going back to CMOS...

Waiting for Phone after Touch Pro 2

I bought the Mogul in 8/07 and the Touch Pro 1 in 10/08 and don't see the need to jump at the Touch Pro 2 for $500-$600 with only minor improvements, even if I can sell (which I always do) my TP1 on ebay. I'll wait for the phone after the TP 2 from HTC that has:

-WM 7

-5 MP camera

-better battery life

-700+ MHz processor

-4GB ROM

-1GB RAM

-etc., etc.

Going from the TP 1 to TP 2 is a waste of money IMHO and everyone making the jump won't be able to get the 2 year contract discount which is still $400 with it. I'll put my $400 to the next upgrade due in late 2010 or early 2011. I'm good with Mighty ROM 6...LOL:)
