How do I change one of the "contacts" in the systray? It is listed twice on the bottom of the screen.

Thanks:confused:

How To Change Softkeys

Wow, your first post! :o

Anyhow, usually it would be nice to have more/clearer details of your question, or a screenshot showing what you are refering too.

Ok, I think you are refering to the 'softkeys' at the bottom of the screen. The issue you have is nothing to do with this ROM at all and cannot be modified directly in this ROM so either you have modified the registry or you are using a 3rd party software which has caused this problem. :p

To solve this problem I suggest a utility called "Softkeys Control Panel Applet".

With this utility you can change them to whatever you want. :cool:

http://www.dotfred.net/SoftkeyAppletEx.htm

Cheers.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Martha Foster:
(How did you know it was my first post? Is there some big red number somewhere??:eek:) Yes, I'm mostly a reader, not a poster.

Anyway, the 'softkeys' usually have "calendar" on the left and "contacts" on the right, so I don't know why mine has "contacts" on both sides. This was after the fresh ROM flash. I'll look into the applet.

Thanks. (And a great, BIG thanks to all of you super-brains who like to dig into this stuff and make it great for the rest of us.)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jclampy:
Your welcome.

It lists number of posts you have made if you look to the right hand side of your message under the date you joined.

Shouldn't have happened like that, did you format your SDCard in windows on PC or laptop first? Unless something is corrupted somewhere, (but I don't want to scare you).

No worries, glad I could help, let us know how you get on with that applet.

Cheers.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Martha Foster:
Yes, I saw that right after I sent the question. :rolleyes:

I formatted it to FAT32 on a WinXP Pro laptop.

The applet worked great; now it is back to Calendar on the left (even though I have a 'hard key' already set to that). I may have to decide what else I can set the softkey to that I use a lot (solitaire? :D ) Thanks again for your help.

How do you like it now?

SO...., After using this ROM for a few months, A: Are you still using it?

B: Are you still liking it?

C: Do you still think it is the best?

D: If yes to the above, what forum do I go to to find the real discusion regarding this ROM? ( You mentioned somewhere that this forum is only a secondary forum for this thread)

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jclampy:
Hi Danny,

A: Yes I still use / test / tweak it.

b: I have made some progress and tweaked things even further so I still like it I guess.

c: Well, at the moment I am stuck between Dynamites or Footballs 6.1 ROMs

d: here is the other forum http://forum.htcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=1835

I have been out of action with the x51v for the last three months and I am still too busy with other things in my life to get back into it. I will get around to it eventually. Thanks for your questions.

is there a landscape qwerty input type available that has larger keys?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] player911:
Resco's Keyboard is Full Screen when in portrait mode. All keyboard vary in functionality. I personally like EzInput because of its simplicity. Other keyboards seem to throw too many options and stuff in there to please everyone.

Simplicity is the reason why the iPhones SIP keyboard is considered awesome (plus the compacitive screen)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] .joeri.:
I'm very new to the world of Windows Mobile, (i used to work with android/iPhone OS)

It's probably a stupid question, but how do i install EzInput?

Thanks in advance!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] .joeri.:
My diamond2 is 6.1, so it doesn't have EzInput.

Do you have a link/tutorial to flash it to 6.5?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] RiZK:
Stupid questions don't exist mate :) Everyone has to start from the beginning. A good beginning is the search option and the wiki, that's how i learned a lot.

Now to get back to your question, look here for a lot of info on ezinput as well as other keyboards:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534678&highlight=ezinput
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] .joeri.:
Thanks for the help.

I searched already on this forum / on the internet, but I didn't find any clear posts.

I'll try those links ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] .joeri.:
I think I installed EzInput now, but I don't see any change of the keyboard...

Do I have to change a setting or something else?

(Do you have a link where I can see/read how to flash 6.5 on my diamond?:))
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] RiZK:
I guess yours came default with that.

Well ofcourse i've got a link for you but first...

A quick guide:

Select your phone here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/

Read everything you can find about flashing cooked rom's, radio's and hardspl

The choice of your radio is very personal, it's different for each country but very important 'cause it basically give you good signal

The choice of the cooked rom is very personal. Some put speed over graphics whilst others like it the other way around

It's very important and the first step of flashing to start with HardSPL'ing your device. If you don't start with that you won't be able to do anything with 6.5

After that you can choose your rom and read all the info that the cook (a rom builder) has provided for the users, there are quite some differences and things to know and learn about roms in these posts. To install a rom you need CustomRUU (installer) and some even support flashing from your microsd card.

The last part is to always hard-reset your device after you've completed 1 of the 3 basic steps. Be aware that you'll loose all the data on your phone, it's basically to turn i to the first point after you've installed the rom. So don't start installing things right away...first try a few roms 'cause you might like another one better.

Last but not least, the radio, well my friend you'll just have to read about it 'cause it depends on your region etc. That one can be flashed after you've done the first 2 steps and it basically goes the same way as flashing a rom. But first things first...start your search for hardspl!

I've taken all these steps for example from the topaz. Some devices might have other routines,...i focus on my device only, 'cause otherwise it's just too much info.. and all the info that's on this forum might be confusing at first (let's face it, there's a lot of info.) But nevertheless, my experience is that people are willing to help others here. There's a solution for everything here, if you know how and where to look.

Start reading :) and have fun...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Senax:
Open up your standard keyboard (in SMS for example), click on the small arrow next to the middle keyboard icon and go to "Other input options".

EzInput should be listed there, select it and youÆre good to go!

If you wish to set EzInput as default keyboard, even after restart of your device, use SIP change application. Remember to set the time-delay to 40-50 seconds!

Here are some linx to freeware keyboards;

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] funkys:
Of course this is great idea. But if it was born some months ago, it would've been implemented in every Diamond. Nevertheless it is great. I will download and play with it,

Cool app, will be trying it out shortly.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
Well, honestly, I was waiting for someone else to do it! Since the Omnia came out so many cried for its "courtesy mode" or something similar, yet no one took it up... So, I finally got tired of waiting ;) lucky me, eh?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Anakha56:
So far so good, will do some testing and playing around. Thank you. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] xavierdemon:
It is interesting but most features of your app already exsist in other software.

Courtesy-sense - well my phone does that already, granted it doesn't flash or vibrate but I'm not bothered that it doesn't.

Common-sense - loads of apps allow this to be done. I use Gyrator to achieve the effect and it serves me well.

They only part of your app I find really interesting is the Notifications-Sense, is it possible to make this a standalone app?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] goTouch:
Sounds very interesting!!! Anyone detects bugs? Drain battery? Stable?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] aoryx:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] funkys:
When I face down my Diamond, the LED is on, but how long is it going to glow. Till I turn it off? I don't think this is good for the battery.

best regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
Unless you have your own build of diamond/pro, you do NOT have courtesy-sense in the way I offer it; while face-down the device is switched to and stays on the silent profile; you do NOT hear any sound whatsoever as opposed to the native feature which will silence your ringer on a per-call basis!

While I used and still love Gyrator, I find its features irrelavent to my personal lifestyle - I find portrait view optimal "for me", so using a large program just to do what's "common sense" simply senseless. Utlimately, you are free to use whatever program(s) you please. Since I like integration/simplicity/lightness I will use mine :)

As for your request for a stand-alone app, I regret to say NO :) sorry
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
:) Thank you mate, I appreciate that :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
Till you turn it off, mate. I have been using this for 2 weeks now, I can tell you will notice NO difference in battery life :) enjoy

Touch HD

This sounds very interesting. Do you think it'll also work on the Touch HD (WM6.5)? This would be just what I've been looking for...

Cheerio
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dule_011:
few things...

Courtesy-Sense: it does go silent when i flip it face down, but turning it back face up does not get it out of silent.

I'd really appreciate some way to configure features and possibly even turn some off.

Very good idea though, keep working on it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
Because the device is suspended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two Notes for everybody:

1. Suspending the device halts the processor, freezes all running threads, except hardware triggered events such incoming call, power manager calls, some keyboard events, and registered "run at time" notifications events. G-Sensor state change does NOT trigger a device power state change event.

2. Causing the device to respond to G-Sensor driver events WHILE the device is suspended will cause extensive strain to the battery since the device will wake up every single time you move it! The workaround is still equally exhausting to the system, which is to set the device's power permanantly ON and then turn the screen on/off based on the G-sensor's state (i.e. face up/down =screen off, everything else = ON".

Conclusion: this is the way Windows Mobile is buit, SO, while your phone is ON put it face-down to switch sound profile to silent and face-up/portrait to set it back to normal sound.

So, I hope this answers y'all to satisfaction...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dule_011:
how about not suspending device then? seems bit pointless having to manually bring device out of "suspend" so that automatic feature kicks in. again, some may agree with me, others might not, so having some way to configure those features would satisfy all.

I've installed two roms now on my MyTouch 3G, based on HTC Sense UI, and both seem abit dark compared to videos of the HTC Hero. Are they dark, or is it my imagination?

I have both SPB Backup and Sprite for HTC backup - BOTH for which I paid and I had no problems using them on my Touch Pro. However, I recently flashed a custom ROM w/ WM6.5 and NEITHER programs will install. Both tell me that the install was unsuccessful.

A few days ago I remember reading a post here about a FREE backup tool which works w/ 6.5 and I've been going crazy trying to find that page again. So I'm asking if anyone knows what that backup program is that's free and works w/ 6.5.

Same here

I have had issues with a Volvo car kit since day 1. (And my TomTom, etc.) The position has got slightly worse since the WM6.5 update. HTC support originally said they were aware of Bluetooth problems (the TP2 has a different stack from preceeding machines). They are sort of backing away from that now - latest e-mail from HTC support says 'it is being looked into'. There are lots of similar issues being reported here and in other user fora.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RADRaze2KX:
Kimbo,

when you update to the new ROM, your car may think it's a brand new phone... try deleting all previously paired phones from your car, then start the pairing process over again... your car should ask if you'd like to sync phonebooks again... that's what mine did when I re-paired after my 6.5 update.

Good luck - Mark

Try the cab from this thread ------> Fix for playing ringtones over bluetooth headset.

It's meant so that the actual ringtone you have set will play on the car kit. I know my car kit used to have its own ring which was... boring to say the least. Now the various ring tones set to people on my phone play through the car kit.

So I am tired of hearing about hte fact that the Palm Pre is multi-taskable... when I know windows mobile is as well.. i thought that the only "REAL" difference is that the Palm Pre has the ability to switch apps with a touch of a finger, so i thought to mself - only if I could learn to program a gesture then I could shove it back in the Palm Pre's user face! Problem is i can't program... So what i would like to know is would some developer be willing to help with this?

-merge initial splash

-clean files used in the installation (provxml, lnk, png, etc.)

-include cabs in the installation

-force soft reset at the end

-split all htc packages not needed in the naked rom (I only want to keep what is needed for album)

- .bat file to upgrade rom version and provxml, depending on a parameter captured in a text file (does it exist?)

Hi, you are going faster than I do!!!!!:) I am at home this week with the flu so I have been able to go faster than normally I will do. My roms are "SD oriented" which means you will have a set of minimum icons (eg. office, igo and google maps). Neither of these programs is installed in the lite rom, only the icons. Today I will publish a naked one (beta) that I did with the help of phnikola. It does not include titanium and exinput and any htc enhancements. It includes showcase and all "my stuff". It is beta, I think the lite version is only 5 megs more (mostly keyboard and album) and runs even faster and the scroll is much better so far.

For your post, I think the best for you would be to download gullum kitchen and follow the short directions given in his first post. In 5 minutes you could be flashing your first rom and in 5 more minutes you could removed all unnecessary stuff to have your naked rom. and it is fun also to have your own rom.:rolleyes:
