Tips and Tricks

1. Threaded SMS :

You can disable the Threaded SMS using the Advance Configuration Tool.

2. In Call Volume (Not 100% sure of this method) :

Have a look in the registry (Use PHM Registry Editor) at HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/InCall

Key: InitVol

The default should be 5. If it lower than that set it to that. If it is at 5 crank it up to no more than 10 and see if that works for you.

4. Debug Log Problem :

5. S2U2 and HTC Mega Phone Canvas (Applicable to 21867 version 1.0) :

- It looks like there is some issue with S2U2's caller-id and HTC Mega Phone Canvas.

- It manifests itself if you enable the S2U2's caller-id functionality with symptoms as : Unable to attend the call with S2A slide bar/hardware button. Only the call can be disconnected using the hardware button.

- The work around for this is to : disable the S2U2's caller-id from the S2U2 settings. For more details see the S2U2 thread. After you disable the caller-id, the usual HTC Mega Phone canvas's screen comes up whenever you receive a call.

6. Uninstall S2U2 (Applicable to 21867 version 1.0) :

- In case you are not comfortable using the S2U2, kindly uninstall it from Settings -> System -> Remove Programs.

- A word of caution here is : Since I have removed WM6.5 lock screen, you will have to live with WM 6.1 style lock screen.

7. Vibrate on Connect :

- Set the following registry key using PHM registry editor

HKLM\Software\OEM\Keystate\UseService to 1

- Note : Not tested by me as I don't use this feature :)
