A question for people who use the LED notification :

Everytime i get a voicemail when the HD2 is turned off, and so i get the notification when i turn it on, the LED will keep blinking after i listened to the voicemail.

That doesn't occur when i receive the notification when the HD2 is on.

Thanks.

HTC HD2 - wireless router

TIPS:

Having been told by O2 this feature is available, HTC have confirmed O2 removed it from the device. Does anyone know how to get this feature back or a 3rd party alternative?

Also how do you regedit on the HTC HD2 to edit the registry please? :confused:

Thanks in advance, and all your tips are Brilliant - very helpful.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphoneresister:
To edit the registry, you can install on your phone one of the following (I'm sure there are other options, but these are three I know):

Total Commander (free)

Resco Explorer (7-day trial, costs $29.95USD)

PHM Registry Editor (free, but site seems to be offline)

Personally I like Total Commander, but be careful because there's no undo function and it's not really optimized for touch without a stylus. Total Commander will also let you work with locked files (i.e., files that the built-in file explorer cannot change/delete).

In Total Commander, navigate to "\\\" (three slashes) to get to the registry. And don't forget to restart after registry changes.

I just want to thank those who have said thanks about this tips thread. I also want to clarify that I am not claiming all these tweaks as mine. Some I have discovered personally, some I have found in other threads and some have been submitted. Its all a team effort. I just browse the many threads, forums and sites to see what I feel can be useful and then test them out and add to the list. The reason why I don't credit anyone is because some time I do not know it the person who has submitted a tweak is the original discoverer etc and so I would not want to credit the wrong person and create friction amongst one another. However, with good searching skills it should be easy to find out the orginator of a tweak.

I wish to thank all xda members for continuing to support one and another and the HD2 so we can make it the perfect phone... eventually :)

Now keep on discovering the hidden treasures our phone contains and let me know so everyone can know.

I have a useful (hopefully!) tip with regard to SD cards with the HD2.

I hope this hasn't already been posted (apologies if so!) but if you have more than one microsd card you can safely store extra ones inside the back cover of the phone. Not sure how many but I think at least 4 extra as I currently have 2 extra ones on one side of the sponge pad thing.

Extremely useful 'storage storage space' as it were! :)

I had a look at the panaramic tweak for the camera. If you use:

HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/P3

Adjust MainCamCaptSize to 1024 and MainCamSupportCaptSize to 1744. The the pictures are really badly interlaced and you just cant see what it is suppose to be as you already know

However. If you use:

HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/P3

Adjust MainCamCaptSize to 128 and Adjust MainCamSupportCaptSize to 1744

Then this sets the size to 1mp and is useable.

Also you dont have to Soft reset when tweaking most of the camera settings which is handy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrdec:
David I get that the panaramic option now functions, but why would you use it if it was such low res, why not use the normal 5mp for a better quality pic?:confused:

Change to Panoramic and check the settings.

The max you can select is 640x480.:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Balfour:
If you want to know why you need such a low res on Panaramic pic use the tweak and try it. It's actually quite amusing :D

Also @ Beard. Once you have applied these reg settings the max you can choose is 3mp but nothing works above 1mp. If you use 2048 and 3776 for the camera values the this will unlock 5mp for use but it still wont work. If any one can figure out why all help is apprecitated.

I have also been trying to figure out how to unlock a true 8mp (if possible) but cannot figure out the values to use it keeps going back to 640x480 res all the time.

Not sure if the other settings does anything on the HTC HD2, but in my experience larger numbers will drain more battery and cause program to consume more memory.

If that still holds true, these boosts will speed up your HTC but will also consume more memory and drain more battery.

Would be interesting to hear what people have experienced.
