As soon as you log out of live, those contacts are gone from your phone. (Be careful you dont delete any live contacts on the phone, they vanish from live too!)

To get them to become permanently part of your contacts you need to export them from live, and import them elsewhere. (Outlook, for instance)

Read up on exporting from live. Heres one to get you started

Please help - Sense Issue

I found it necessary to hard reset my Leo yeterday, I duly reinstalled a whole bunch of your very useful cabs (thank they are wonderful!), and installed Duttys Task Manager last. Now Sense won't restart. I've soft reset half a dozen times, with Sense switched on (in Settings/Today) or without, but to no avail. I really don't want to have to hard reset yet again so does anyone have any suggestions? I would ordinarily remove the program but without Sense there is no Managed Programs list to do that from. Where do cabs go when they are installed, I don't recall setting a location, just when I installed them I did so to 'Device'. I thought maybe I could access via File Explorer and delete Duttys, restart Sense (if it will let me) and then try reinstalling Duttys?

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
not so simple.some cabs are single files, some are a whole bunch of files, some are just registry entries. you can't just delete it and be done.

sadly I think you need to hard reset and add things slowly, testing the phone between each instal til you find the bad one.

Yes, use a reg editor (Recommend ceregistryeditor on the PC, if get cannot connect error click tools - unlock registry) to browse to HKLM/software/HTC/manila/home

Get 9 folder, 0 to 15, they are the links. Clear out the data in the one you want to delete.

Need help

Sorry to be asking a simple question over here at this thread, I am trying to implement tip #74 however i can't seem to do it. Plus, i can't find any tutorials or guide on registry editing, sorry if my searching skills is bad. But i need help in editing the registry on my LEO, all i can do is edit the 'data'. I am using PHM regedit currently. :(

Appreciate help i can get, thanks guys!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
easiest way to edit registry is through the PC using ceregistryeditor. Instal it, connnect phone using USB, click connect in ceregistryeditor, click tools - unlock registry(only need to unlock once), and your good to go.

For editing on the phone most people rcommend totalcommander or resco.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chimpsinties:
Using CERegistryEditor also allows you to create .cabs from your reg changes so you can install them next time instead of having to tweak the registry. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabriel.twl:
Okay, will try that out, thanks so much! :)

On a side note, is it still/also possible to do so on PHM regedit from device? Because i can't figure a way around it, and i stopped in case i screw everything up.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabriel.twl:
ceregistry

regarding this, i connect my phone through usb as diskdrive or activesync? Or it doesn't matter which one i choose?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chimpsinties:
I'm pretty sure it's active sync.

If you connect as disk drive it does just that. It treats your phone as a SD card drive and you can't get to the main memory, only the storage card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabriel.twl:
Thanks!

Okay, just installed it, thanks for your help on this, been spending hours on this regedit thing not just for tip 74 but for future use as well, you have any idea how to do it on device, so maybe next time i can do it on-the-go.

Sorry to be asking so much, once again thank you so much!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chimpsinties:
Yeah, like the previous poster said. Get TotalCommander and install it on your device.

It basically just a file explorer with a built in reg editor. At the root you'll see

\\plugins Double click that

then

\Registry

There you go. The registry at your sweaty little finger tips.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabriel.twl:
alright, will try that out! Thanks! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabriel.twl:
I think i've figured it out, didn't realise from the beginning, all i have to do is add in those lines into the 'data' column. Mistake on my part there, because it was empty at the begining and was afraid to make changes, plus i don't see any changes and realised that i'd have to soft reset.

Everything worked fine now, sorry to bother you chimpsinties and thanks.

bro.. i know where the program it place... my question is... what is the registry path for screen align program... :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
There is no path. It is a part of the ctpnl.exe control panel program.

On your pc, open notepad, paste in the following

25#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,7

save it as (for example) screen.txt

Now rename it to screen.lnk (thats LNK not INK)

move it to your phone, if you wnt to make it a quick link move it to windows/start menu

now you can go to your quicklinks and add it as a quick link and it will call up the screen control panel item.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sckw:
erm.. do u know where is the original file path? i mean where they place this so-called control panel item in? LNK files its just a (shortcut) right?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
its in the windows folder. (it might be hidden by default, because it is a system file, you will need to unhide files) BUT just creating a normal shortcut to it won't do anything.

EDIT yea just checked, its at windows/ctpnl.exe but doesnt do anything when you run it, because it needs the cplmain.dll referenced AND it also needs the applet number that you want to be executed before it will do anything.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sckw:
can you please tell me which is the files? i mean the files name :)

and where can i find the default icon for this shortcut? (align screen icon)windows default
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
the file name is ctpnl.exe, and as said above, it wont run on its own. you can try, but it wont do anything unless you have a correctly crafted link (as in my first post)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sckw:
yup ok .... i understand... but can i create this shortcut with screen align icon on?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
The icons are inside the cplmain.cpl file, they aren't seperate files, and they need to be referenced inside the shortcut, i'm looking into it now, check back in 10 minutes.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
From the microsoft windows knowledge base

Perhaps there is an icon changer program that will let you browse to cplmain.dll and extract the icon from there?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sckw:
ok can u tell me where is the original path for this shortcut to place in it?

is it in start---->setting---all setting? <--- i cant find this in windows root?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
the shortcut that you created yourself following my instructions should be placed in windows/start menu

There is no shortcut already on the phone. Not until you make it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sckw:
can u give me the link for icon changer program?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
lol, there are a few. i just tried this one (click teh file icon to download, change the .cab_ extension to .cab to install it) but it doesnt let you access the control panel icons, just the various program icons. (The 'search phone' icon looks like a screen, maybe that one will do?)

HTC sense messaging display

hey guys, the whole display and layout of my threaded messaging is screwed.

Messages sent between me and my recipient is not in order and not really "threaded" properly.

It makes things really inconvenient and i have to do alot of scrolling when i have a considerably large amount of history of texts. i need help and there a timestamp cab that didn't work. is there a registry fix for this? the reason why my messages are sometimes positioned below my recipient i suspect it is due to the difference in time settings between my recipient phone and mine. It is due to either mine is faster or slower and that determines the position of the messages. isn't it supposed to be all according to my phone's time? i am puzzled and dismayed that a core function of the phone is screwed up.

Additionally, anyone know of a registry or a fix for the screen jittering which makes typing messages on the keyboard a difficulty with unknown presses and errors together, even more so when selecting text. (tried bsb tweaks, hd2 tweaks and 3 different sensitivity cabs, didn't work for me) :( :(
