[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] band27:
I'm currently testing the "999999999" and it seems pretty sensitive. Will test on a couple more apps before trying th "0" input.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
Sorry for the lack of info! Yes, it's in Decimal Value.

Well I found the registry tweak I posted (post2) from a different forum. I found that the stock ROM's settings had the decimal value at 15000. When I brought it up (as the instructions said the higher the better) to 65000, I noticed that screen sensitivity increased.

I'll try "0" later on.

As for the Advanced Config settings, the Pressure Threshold setting in Advanced Config controls the registry setting I posted in post2.

UPDATE: In HKLM\Drivers\Touch Panel\PressureThreshold, in the Decimal Value I tried "0" for 2 hours. I then switched to "100000" for 2 hours. IMO, "100000" was way more sensitive for me; "0" was very resisitive to my motions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] WarlockW:
Hmmm ... I have mobile 6.5 wwe t-mobile tp2

Navigate to or search for:

HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold

and

HKLM/Software/OEM/TFLOSettings/FingerPressure

If you wana test how mobile figures out how to set it ..

goto: settings / system / screen / align screen

and run the alignment test ..

If I PRESS REALLY HARD EVERYTIME I get ..

fingerpressure 22

pressurethreshold 48

If I PRESS REALLY SOFT EVERYTIME I get ..

fingerpressure 26

pressurethreshold 57

So ...

If I Set BOTH to 10 it should make it harder to push / scroll ???

and I Set BOTH to 100 it should make it easier to push / scroll ???

Because I change them and it doesnt really seem to make a difference :(

What do you guys get when you run the screen test and let mobile figure it out ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
I didn't do a screen test, but for the set both to 10/100:

Make a greater difference. Example: set both to 10. Then for comparison, set both to 10000. With the greater difference between 10 and 10000, you should see a greater difference in the behavior of the screen.

EDIT: I did the "test" for the screen.

Results (hard test)

:

Finger Pressure: 21

Pressure Threshold: 48

Results (soft test)

:

Finger Pressure: 24

Pressure Threshold: 54

So I guess, the higher the numbers, the more sensitive it would have to be?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] WarlockW:
ok .. well .. 10000 seems to work well .. but so does 10 LOL

I give .. LOL
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
After a few reboots with different values, I have finally settled for these:

HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold = 100000 (Decimal)

HKLM/Software/OEM/TFLOSettings/FingerPressure = 100 (Decimal)

Now not only do I not need to press so hard on the screen for anything to respond (something akin to my Dopod D810 or HTC Touch), TouchFLO is also more responsive. Thanks guys!!

UPDATE 1 : TP2 stock wm6.1 ROM

UPDATE 2 : don't know if it is related, but scrolling by finger/swipe is grounded to a squeaking halt using Microsoft Facebook app.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
Well, allow me to copy your registry values! :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr_sheen:
i'll get my hands on one of those Registry editor and try your settings.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] irkan:
So more value means less pressure needed

any ideas on what is the limit? i mean the maximum value that you could set and actually be taken into account?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
Well, in the first post, mr_sheen put in 999999999 for Pressure Threshold in Advanced Config. That area in Advanced Config also controls the reg tweak I posted in the second post...

I think 999999999 is pretty high! That's 9 hundred 99 million, 9 hundred 99 thousand, 9 hundred 99!

Unless of course, you want to try 1 billion in the registry!:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mhurg:
Hm, I don't have that setting. Should I create it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] p51d007:
Maybe if we keep increasing the number, the screen will be so fluid, you can actually push your finger into the screen, or create a black hole LOL :D;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] The Jack of Clubs:
the highest number you can put in a dword is 4294967295. i personally dont find 999999999 more sensitive than the default 10000.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dwboston:
The screen sensitivity of my Tilt 2 running the stock ROM improved noticeably by changing:

HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold = 10

It's a little confusing that some people have good luck with low numbers and some with very high numbers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] band27:
That is because some of us are suffering from the placebo effect.

Happy Hunting .....;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] osrix:
Hd tweak has these settings, we can play with..try it out :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] The Jack of Clubs:
man, i wish i had some placebo to ring in the new years with. that stuff will mess you up!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] worwig:
I made mine a smaller value, and was more sensitive.

I then tried a larger value, and it was more sensitive.

I then put it back and it was more sensitive.:eek:

Seriously, I couldn't tell any difference.

When I started, the registry was setting at 56. I did a screen alignment using a very soft touch, and that changed the registry value to 42.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] S.V.I:
I think that the reason we all have different values, is that during the manufacturing process there is no way to get the screen set (phisicaly) the same way for every device. especially sice the screen gets covered by the housing, and then maybe even a screen protector.

as for the screen sensitivity, I think that there is no real way of setting it or replacing it. I tried it once when I had a wizard, and it had no effect. then I tried a diamond touch.dll on the wizard and the settings worked... I tried to do the same thing with a Kaiser (replacing a touch dll) and the sreen was not responsive at all. it was dead.

this leads me to believe that HTC started making device specific drivers... unless I am wrong... is there a newer driver? maybe from touch HD?

I guess what I am trying to say is that if you can not see any real difference, from adjusting it, that it might not be adjustable at all, or there is a phisical haredware difference from just the manufacturing process. as far as I can tell, there have been so many rhodiums built for just about every carier, that quality might suffer... meaning consistance. thats my 2 cents. if it isnt broken, dont fix it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] band27:
When you are experiencing what you have described above, that's when you know it's probably a good time to stop....lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fabolous04:
ok so im tryin to do this but im gettin the cannot change my value but im getting the error "cannot write value data" im using ceregistry...i unlocked the registry so what else can i do

stock tmo tp2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
When you go to the reg paths, make sure the "Type:" is "DWord" and that you're entering your value in the box that says "(decimal)".

If that doesn't solve it, what were you doing before?

You could still install Advanced Config Tool (see first post). The settings in the first post control the registry settings mentioned in this thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fabolous04:
this worked thanx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vHatch:
fwiw I tried a value of 1 here and noticed significant enough improvement that I didn't try any other values yet. The value already present was 56. I suspect that perhaps the success people are getting with extremely high values is because the value is higher than the allowed variable size and thus defaults to some other value like zero.

Btw, thanks so much for this thread OP, I hadn't thought there were settings you could change for this, I'm loving it.

TMO TP2, default ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eastside770:
wonder if this works on the imagio?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
I'm thinking this "hack" is a general WM thing...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] knox203:
It seems to me like the lower the number, the more sensitive it will be. The reason "999999999" works is because it's beyond the software's configuration range and probably defaults to a lower value when set to such a large number.

Set it to 0~10 if you want it crazy sensitive!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] The Jack of Clubs:
it doesnt change anything if i set it to 10000, or 999999999, or 4294967295, or 1, or 0, or 10. its all giving the same sensitivity. whatever you think is making it more sensitive in your head, change it to that. :P

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] F2504x4:
Okay just to be the opposite, i want less sensitivity , seriously, i have stock AT&T tilt 2 and it is way to sensitive for me,

If some one would give step by step instructions i would be a very happy camper :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bugsykoosh:
Guys, this does work for all HTC WM devices. If you want an easier way to do it check this out: http://www.fuzemobility.com/control-your-scroll/

A single app that configure 6 registry values and even gives suggested values depending on how sensitive you like it and how fast/slow you like your phone to scroll. Enjoy
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
The truth is, I no longer find differences in sensitivity after doing the reg tweaks. (I was the second poster in this thread, posting the reg entry.)

I last flashed my phone on Jan.22 and decided to leave the "sensitivity" tweak alone. I find the sensitivity is the same.

I'm starting to believe this:

As for the app that bugsykoosh linked, it may trick you into thinking your phone is more sensitive, but in reality only scrolling speed is changed (flicks will seem more sensitive because you're scrolling at a faster rate).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cinguliano:
Does not work.

I tried 65000 as value for the first registry path posted. I did not bother to change the TouchFlo entry because I don't use TF3D.

65000 made no difference. Neither did 999999999, or 0, or 1. When I tried with 10, I thought at first that I had a more responsive screen, but after a few taps I suddenly felt I had a less responsive screen.

This is all way too suggestive. I did a Screen Alignment the way I normally use the device and that reset the registry setting to 56, and that's where I'm going to leave it.

Nice try though. (literally)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bummler:
so is there any solution for the best most sensitive touch screen on the touch pro2? maybe its something different then HKLM/Software/OEM/TFLOSettings and HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold cause that doesnt has a big effect.

it must be possible to control the touchscreen without fingernails(that sucks).

i also have a xperia x1 with spb mobile 3.5 and its much much more sensitive( like capacitive) compared to the touch pro2,i dont need fingernails or much pressure...just smooth sliding

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] zhopudey:
Hi all, I've been using my hero for a few months now and really loving it. Its a big big step up from my earlier nokia E51. :)

I had a constant complain with symbian, which I'm hoping can be solved on android. I want to be able to use my contacts nicknames. I should see the nickname when I get a call, I should be able to search contacts using just their nicks. But of course I'll have their full names entered in the DB.

Also, any way to give custom labels to multiple phone numbers, instead of the default work, mobile, home, etc? And any way to make these labels show up in the caller-id screen, instead of the actual phone number?

e.g. it should say " Dad - Delhi Office landline" instead of "John Doe - 123456789"

TIA :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] zhopudey:
Happy new year to all :)

Doesn't anyone else care for nicknames? :confused:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Zimaia:
Hi Guys,

As usually i searched a lot before post but concerning thumbnails in internet tab i only found posts with information about how to increase performance but not how to disable this function in manila 2.5

This is a perfect example of a feature that (in my opinion) didn't bring any advantage mainly because the thumbnails are so small that it's, in most of them, difficult to see witch website is!! Because of this i always look at the text and don't care about the thumb.

In manila 2.1 we have a list of favorites in the screen with a icon. that's how i want it to work, a lot more practice!!

I wonder if there are anything we can do to bring back to manila 2.5 this way of showing internet shortcuts in internet tab???

Thanks in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] p00ltergeist:
Try installing GAZ touch tools pr1.3

In the program there's a tab called "Opera settings" wich contains the following option -Enable "Back" thumbnail images on/off

That might satisfy you.

This is based off david1171's minus theme, just taken further. I appreciate David letting me use the images. It replaces the boot flash image, and also includes a new launcher and changes to the Market "StoreFront" I want to thank WesGarner for creating such a great build based on Cyan's great rom.

I want to thank Barina for his input; He is THE MAN ( used his Dark Dream wall for the shots- I know he wont mind LOL)and his notification bar, and all other devs and there great advice and help- Chris

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mekkelrichards:
Hey, I was looking at my free memory in the TaskPanel app and it says I have about 25mb of free memory and I am only running a few small apps (Google Voice, Gmail). I have a swap partition on my sd card and am running the latest CM. Shouldn't I have over 60mb of free memory? Does this mean that my swap is probably not enabled? If so, how can I enable it?

I have read all of the informative threads in the development section and they seem outdated.

EDIT: I read the CM wiki and figured out how to turn on swap, but shouldn't I still have more than 25mb of free memory, it just seems too low.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
Normal....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
I have about the same, but dont forget OP you probably have widgets eating ram on your homescreen. If you have a task killer app put the widget for it on your homescreen then kill the apps and the amount of free mem will increase. "Whats the point of more mem when its not doing anything smart".

To accomplish what you want, extract the suppied ZIP folder into to ROOT of your phone. It should work. If you find that it does not work, please report back to me...I made the script in just a couple of seconds, so I am unsure of if it will work correctly.
[HTC Excalibur] Vicntc:
Thanks! Works great. I manually copied the files over rather than extract them directly to the device bubt that didn't seem to affect anything.

Sent you a little something as well for your efforts. Much appreciated.
[G1 General] sw20matt:
so I have been looking around at mt3g roms and noticed that there is a 32b and 32a version. From what I have been told all mt3g's were 32a.

so my question is what is the difference between mt3g 32b and dream 32b?
[G1 General] oshizzle1991:
no, all MT3G's are 32B. it is because their PVT board is different. Magics are 32A and have more ram, while MT3G's are 32B and have a little less ram
[G1 General] Mi|enko:
oshizzle's correct. And to further elaborate on your question "the differences between mt3g 32b and dream 32b", the mytouch has 512 megs of ROM while the dream has 256 megs of ROM (storage space, not to be confused with RAM).
[G1 General] st0kes:
Erm ... that's not correct ... for example HTC Magics in the UK use 32B boards ... but they are called HTC Magic on Vodafone, not MT3G.

AFAIK The correct way to tell is from the branding on the battery cover, the Google branded phones "with Google" are all 32B. HTC Branded phones are 32A.
[G1 General] tazz9690:
not trying to be rude, but didn't you just contradict yourself when you said this?

I don't think you explained yourself very well. It might confuse some people.
[G1 General] oshizzle1991:
either way, i think we have either totally confused the OP, or fried his brain by how knowledgeable we all are haha
[G1 General] st0kes:
I see your point, I'll explain in a more concise way:

MyTouch3G does not exist in the UK. You can buy an HTC Magic here on Vodafone but it is a 32B board.

I hope the OP is not too confused!
[G1 General] melterx12:
all MyTouch 3G's are 32B. Some HTC Magics are also 32B in europe, depending on which one you get. The 32B version has 192mb RAM instead of 288MB RAM, and a slightly different processor.

I dont think there is a 32A or 32B dream.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] MerCiLeSS28:
Anyone know of program that can call landline/mobile phones using wifi and is inexpensive/free other than skype?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ntron1:
Google voice...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] chrialex:
Google Voice doesn't use the data connection for the call though, it still routes it through the same as a normal voice call. I have heard of using a few separate programs to route everything around to use Google Voice, but I have not tried any of them, nor do I know off hand where to point you other than here, ppcgeeks, or the google voice forums.

You could try Fring, it allows you to use other services such as skype/sms/etc. I haven't used it in a long time, but when I did, you wanted at least half of your full signal strength or the quality of audio would drop along with delays in text. It has been said to have gotten better since, but I haven't tried it. They are the first to have the first mobile video call using it with skype on nokia/iphone and the first free voip call using it with skype on android devices.

Hope some of this help :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ntron1:
Just curious why not just use your phone? Not enough minutes? If your carrier allows free favorites, you can make your google voice # one of the favorites and call for free.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] SUPAstarr:
Im also interested in this, cuz when im out of the country i wanna route my calls through an IPBX
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Wil Badger:
There is no free ip phone service that I know of. It costs money to run a service like that and I don't see anybody giving it away. Skype is not free when making actual phone calls. It is only free to other skype users. So unless the person has a Skype number it's still costing you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] TechnoHippie:
It is actually possible.

You need a google voice number and a gizmo5 account. You can forward your google voice number to a gizmo5 SIP account - thus you get free incomming calls. You can use the mobile google voice webpage to make outgoing calls - thus you get free outgoing calls too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Wil Badger:
As far as I know Google voice from the web site only connects your existing phone number(the one being forward to) and the number your wanting to call. So you are still going to be charged for an incoming call if your service does so. If you get free incoming calls then yes. As for the Gizmo5 option it has been acquired by Google Voice and no longer excepts no members accounts or on-line numbers. I have made a GV account and linked it to a Skype account. It only costs my $3 a month for unlimited calling through them outbound and another $6 a month for an on-line number. So for $9 a month a can make unlimited calls and texts. Pretty close to free or as close as it can get for now. I'm sure in a few months GV will have their own on-line service since purchasing Gizmo5. This will hold me over for now.
