My Euro Tab with stock firmware wouldn't go "full-screen" in landscape with Swype, but flashing to a later firmware fixed it.

Regards,

If Tmob's swype.apk will work on AT&Ttab, I could upload if you want.
[Galaxy Tab General] rcb929:
I would like to try it. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] quattr0:
Here we go. I'm not responsible if you install these and your Tab is not working.
[Galaxy Tab General] taggie:
Please don't ask them to "fix" it. I had a T-Mobile tab, and hated the extra finger movement. If you want to touch type, switch to a normal keyboard, leave the nice compact swype alone.
[Galaxy Tab General] mach330:
i noticed something with the swype as well (on sprint). sometimes the kb would just disappear. i can't get it to go back up so i can type. usually happens on browsing.
[Galaxy Tab General] quattr0:
rcb, how did it go? Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] ConceptVBS:
This is actually a better solution for swype use than the "newer" firmware, IMO.
[Galaxy Tab General] quattr0:
After the Euro ROm flash to have voice call back, Swype disappeared on my AT&T tab. Wonder if I could just use Tmob one. I think I should be okay but wanted to check since he asked to try.
[Galaxy Tab General] rcb929:
haven't had a chance too do it but thanks. I will let you know.
[Galaxy Tab General] Levistras:
Cant downgrade

I have a Rogers Galaxy Tab and also have the smaller fullscreen swype. My Swype version is newer than what is posted here, I have 2.7.49.12483.

If I forcibly remove swype and install the one here, I can tap-type but swype seems to have no language set (greyed out in swype options) so I cant 'swype'. On reboot the device magically reverts to my newer Swype with small keyboard in landscape.

I would love to find a solution that allows me to run the old Swype on my Rogers tab.

(as an aside, SlideIT keyboard runs fullscreen on Tab, but I'd still prefer Swype)
[Galaxy Tab General] qipengart:
The new swype beta will resolve the screen issue I believe.
[Galaxy Tab General] shmigao:
no it didn't. new beta doesn't even include the GT screen size

what's wrong with this world???

I want to use this pic as my wallpaper but I can't stand the "(c) Larry west productions......" on it. Can somebody with some PS skills please shop it out of the pic for me? I basically want it to look like that was never there, so the background matches, if possible. I will be forever indebted to whoever can do this for me.

Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sj_martin:
So basically you are asking some one to illegally remove the copyright of an image that is not yours. Not sure if that is allowed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Why is it illegal? I want to use it for my own personal wallpaper. It's not like I want to use it for some commercial purpose. I just don't want a huge copyright in the middle of my home screen.

hah I love it thanks XD

SWYPED from my SUPASONIC
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sj_martin:
The same reason it is illegal to download movies, mp3's, software etc. Images are no different if they are copyrighted.

Personal use or commercial.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
So then technically it is illegal to use any copyrighted image as my wallpaper? I sure hope the feds don't get ahold of my EVO because it is filled with images that I took off the web.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
Technically, that's actually ok. It becomes an issue when you begin removing watermarks, signatures, or copyright info from released works - he could have used the image as is, but when he asked to remove the artists copyright info, thats when the Armchair NetLawers start to bristle. :)

Granted, its pretty minor in this case, but some people take it pretty seriously.

UPDATE v. 1.3.0.1 BETA (24th December 2010)

Sorry for the long time, but here is my current work which still needs some support.

What was done?

1. Fixed aprox. 90 Timezone entries within windows.

2. Problem is that the rilphone.dll ignores (!) NITZ. There might be an option within the registry but it seems that this option will be ignored. Damn...

3. Workaround is done and within the CAB file

LIMITATIONS:

I guess there are now all global valid timezones within this cab file and I hope there is no need to say that not every time zone is tested by my self. :)

The cell tower time sync works only after a cold reboot OR

once a time

if you activate the airplane mode or disable the SIM card. After enable the device for normal phone status you need to cold reboot the device because the registry value for the time sync will be set during the reboot and DEACTIVATED by the device after applying the current time.

If you want to prevent the cold reboot and force the cell tower time syncronisation you can also go to "SETTINGS - PHONE - GMS/GPRS - TimeSyncronization" disable this and hit O.K. Stay on and now enable this option again and you will have also a cell tower time syncronization. For automaticaly you need to reboot the device again.

Until someone has written a little tool for watching the registry we need to live with this limitation. But i guess this is not a huge limitation.

HOW TO USE:

HTC_TimeZone_Patch.cab is self explaining. Just download it, install it and enjoy it. If you have a previous version of my patch installed this will overwrite the existing settings. If u use this cab file reset the device after installation and when it's up you need to reboot it a secound time.

Problem is also if you are traveling around and you switch from 3G to EDGE or GPRS this time sync value will be also overwritten.

If you are using this patch with the current LEO DST Patch (LOL) this doesn't matters. I don't know what the hell the have written into this files but my patch is not causing troubels to this.

This patch is device independend. If you are using a other device than the HD2 (LEO) wich has also the time sync issue it should also work. Would be great to get some feedback about this.

UsedFiles.zip is the complete collection what I have used to get this patch running. If you want to build it into your ROM or you want to see what will happens on your device use it.

SourceCode.zip here I would need some help from someone other. Inside this file are 2 souce code files (CPP and VB) which should solve the RegistryChange Notification API. I just want to have that the RegKey [HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\DisableTimeSync] will be monitored. But after 12 years using the last time an compiler I have currently no clue how to solve this. If someone has experiance within C++ or VB.NET this should be not a big issue because both files are good templates.

Would be great if someone of you can check this files and write the EXE for this. Thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] satellite000:
please can you help me

hi i did install the patch and the time is 2 hours minus than the real time i'm on +2 greece... if i uninstal the patch the time goes +1 hour every time i make a reboot .... can you help me fix this ?? the patch that you made is very good but is not for my time zone . i have the problem from the provider i think cuz without the sim it works ok the time . i try to take out the automatic sync from settings but after reboot is cliked again. please if you can help me send me an email on dorian_marian@yahoo.com
[HD2 General] Azitrox:
Same Problem Here !

But my phone goes -2h EVERY time I reboot !!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
I have double checked this on two other devices. Same issue.

But in the meantime I found why...

See 1st post!
[HD2 General] LuPellox85:
I modified the register and then I installed your patch, so I rebooted the phone and did a twice update on weather, but now my time is locked on 22.54 and I can't change it at all!!

I'm in Italy, so gmt+1 it's right for me..

any ideas?
[HD2 General] satellite000:
i'm tryng now the settings , but i just found another problem when i go to setings/personal/ auto sync time with the network provider > i try to uncheck the settings but afret reboot is cheked again , i think the hole problem is from here... from the provider do you knou how i can stop the auto time sync in any other way than the settings??
[HD2 General] satellite000:
still need help...

no , still problems i-m 4 hours behind now , i think i did some thing wrong , my only hope is if you can fix me up with 1 patch for ''115 E. Europe Standard Time'' or for ''130	GTB Standard Time'' if u ever have time . or for any GMT +2 i think it wil work . thank you for giving us hope u are 1 of the few that took this problem and fix it .
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Post me the content of this registry keys and which country you are living:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time

TIP:

It might be also a solution if you delete the value within HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time

There you will find only ONE value which will rebuilded after knocking on the time server. Just delete this key and give it a reboot.

Thanks!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
If you are able to do a factory reset do it, check the registry for this:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]

"HomeDST"=dword:00000000

"AppInfo"=hex:\

01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,6E,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 ,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00

"TZIndex"=dword:0000006E

"SoundAlarmAlways"=dword:00000001

"NetworkTimeNotifyUser"=dword:00000001

"AutoDST"=dword:00000001

"NetworkTimeSync"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

TimeZone=-

Make sure that [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] has no more keys in addition. Reboot. Check the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]

again and there MUST be an additional key named "HomeDST"=dword:00000000

Leave the settings within HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time as is is.

The TimeZone key within [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila] is only available if you do a power on after factory reset when you have SIM PIN enabled. Would be great if you can disable PIN for the very first reboot.

1. Disable PIN for the SIM

2. Factory reset

3. Go ahed with the setup like always, just basics and i.e. remove the camera icon from the home Menue. Just to make sure that the device writes something to the registry into your user profile.

4. Reboot

5. Change registry only within [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]

6. Reboot

7. Be patient and check the time

Can you confirm?

Independed if it's working or not, please send me the Registry of your Device with the four keys within the 1st posting.

It would be a great thing if you are using CeRegistry Editor and you are able to send me a complete backup of the complete registry which should be round about 2MB.

Thanks!

the first patch was working ok but it was not the acurate time.... i dont know what to do ... i'm thinking to instal a custom cooked rom for my hd2 t-mobile... this will be the last resort .

again thank you for taking interesst in this problem .
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Ok. This thing becomes more and more crazy! *lol*

After 4 or 5 times patching the registry it's not longer possible to patch successfully the registry. I don't know if this problem is related to my device or if this is a problem to my Registry Editor. My device is doing some strange things... :) Just wait until the end of this storry!!

So, let's start from scratch - and I guess I have a final solution:

1. Flash the device from scratch

2. Just DELETE (!) the followed registry entries:

REMOVE THIS KEY AND EVERYTHING INSIDE COMPLETE:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Time]

YOU CAN'T REMOVE THE NEXT KEY. JUST DELETE EVERY VALUE WITHIN THIS KEY! IF IT'S POSSIBLE DELETE THE "AppInfo" value ALSO!

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]

"Home"

"HomeDST"

"SoundAlarmAlways"

"NetworkTimeNotifyUser"

"NetworkTimeSync"

IF IT'S EXIST - DELETE IT:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"TimeZone"="-60"

Now, when everything is done, my device is switching to 13:05 GMT +1, September the 29th. The GMT+1 is related to the value of [HKLM\Time] because TimeZoneInformation is telling W. Europe Standart Time GMT +1. If you have a different time zone this date is relatet to your value.

Anyway - it's great!!!!!! From my point of view, this is a sign that there will be a "time reset" on the device.

Just do a reboot, be patient and after round about 1 or 2 Minutes and your current Date is valid but time is wrong.

For me it will display Current time GMT +2.

Now go to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] REMOVE the HomeDST value which is "0" (zerro) and type "AutoDST" with value 1.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock]

"AutoDST"=dword:00000001

Disconnect cable and 5 or 10 seconds later you see the valid time. Do you think this is great??? NO!!!! :)

Now - let's do a second flash from scratch and tell me what you will see! :)

After flashing it the 2nd time I disconected the device and boot it up. I have done the default setup (...yes, yes, next, next, next - finish) and saw that my time was not valid to +1 hour. Weather update was running and - uhhhh???

Time AND Date was valid!!!!! Double checked the Registry entries and they are still the same as bevor. BUT even with or without SIM PIN the TimeZone value is not set.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"TimeZone"="-60"

No, nada, nothing. Niet!! I'm not able to get it...

I have done this now 2 more times and I have still the right time after flashing WITHOUT patching the registry or patching the device.

My device is now sleeping this night without the batterie because I want to see what will happens tomorrow morning after 7 hours without power when I plug it in. Nasty devices will be punished hard :)

Double check this and confirm this way please!!!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
I plugged the batterie back and pressed VolumeUp + VolumeDown + PowerOn together for factory reset.

Device is booting and running within default setup. I was tracking the registry and the default time on the device is GMT - British Time [HKLM\Time\TimeZoneInformation] which is based on the firmware by default.

Start the setup with stupid next, skip, skip, ... finish!

It comes up with GMT british time but 5sec later I have had the right time & TimeZoneInformation within the device.

:)

If someone is able to explain this that would be great!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
UPDATE!

Check the first posting pls and don't try to do this with any other firmware. It will not work...

Currently there are a lot of questions why without any answer... :(
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Now it's finaly working. No need for a reset, no need to flash, nothing to do.

Just use the CAB file and be happy!!!

;)
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Update!

Now you have also the right time after a restart!
[HD2 General] RolandCruise:
Thanks a lot for your work!

I tried the cab and it seems to work ;)

I have only one question...well that's more like a curiosity: I tried to re-enable both the auto sync option in the sense settings and in wm phone settings, and it doesn't work. In fact I have to keep the wm one disabled and use only the sense settings auto sync option enabled. Is this the normal behaviour? And, why nobody at microsoft or htc is thinking about the release of a fix while it is clear that it's a wm bug (and also a very annoying one)?

I know most probably you can't have an answer for my last question... :D

Again, Thank you very much!!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Sure! I can! ;)

This issue is related to HTC and it's depend on the rilphone.dll...

Not sure if someone is interested about technical details. But if you are I can post this here :D

Thanks m8 for your feedback! ;)
[HD2 General] troed:
Dear MrT69 !

Thanks for diggin into this crap porduced by HTC, doing THEIR work and finding a solution as posted in the cabs.

Before I install I would have to know on WHICH ROM You are (1.66, 1.72 ?), which rilphone.dll and what exactly Your cabs 1.00 and/or 1.01 do.

From long experience in this forum I know: the better the infos BEFORE installing a mod the less trouble with freezes afterwards ........... :D

Thanks again for Your fabulous work !
[HD2 General] RolandCruise:
Well, yes...if it doesn't take you too much time to explain what your cab does and some technical details it will be surely appreciated ;)

My doubt is: rilphone.dll is a library i think...so why the auto update function works with the sense settings option and not when I check the windows mobile phone setting to synchronize with network time?

Thanks a lot!
[HD2 General] MrT69:
I will remove the old version so there is now only one to use. If there are future updates for this please use only the CAB within the 1st posting.

Regards,

MrT69
[HD2 General] RolandCruise:
Great explanation MrT69, thank you very much for your patience in writing it and, again, for your work!

What I've understood is that you successfully patched the HTC's fault in the rilphone.dll, so that's why when I check the time sync function in wm (settings/personal/telephone/GSM-UMTS services/time synchronization) I have back the time problem (so windows mobile related, I think...), while with this unchecked and the same option in the sense settings tab/data services/time synchronization activated everything works fine...am I wrong?

Can you confirm that the wm sync time option enabled still produce the problem like I noticed?
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Yup! :)

I only prevent forward NITZ Information from rilphone.dll to the OS.

BUT, with this you need to work with Windows Registry based TZI information which will added to the registry with my patch.

If HTC sort this problem out you can get very easy rid of the TZI information by uninstalling my patch :)

THAT WILL MEAN:

You will not have any longer issues with your device when you use my patch for your HTC device.

Correct time, quick and fast time sync with your provider and after a reboot you will see your current and actual time without waiting for time sync.

If you are traveling to a different time zone your device will also notice that without any issues.

No need to disable anything else on your device. Download it, use it, enjoy it! :)

Regards,

MrT69
[HD2 General] troed:
Wow, MrT69, You are a genious and a lot of people are maximum thankful to You working THIS out .....:D:D

HTC can thank guys like You that their Smartphones are not banged against their heads because of stupidities like that time problem which decides significantly upon the usability of the HD2 ...................

1.000.000 Tx
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Thanks a lot for your feedback!

If you can do me a favour then provide this information also to a user who has also the same problem but a different device than the HD2.

I guess this will also work on other devices than the HD2 but I have actually no other devices than the HD2 available and I also know nobody with same problem but different device.

Million thanks in advance!

MrT69
[HD2 General] MrT69:
I have been informed from users for this HTC devices:

HD2 v. 3.14.x GERMAN

HD2 v. 3.14.x English

HD2 v. 1.66 German

:) ...happy to see that more and more users this patch using!
[HD2 General] p50kombi:
Not working on Miri v24 HD2

Not working in my HD2 using Miri v24 rom (based on 3.14)

My time keeps jumping ahead one hour after I engage time sync in network settings.

After countless resets etc and waiting for ages, setting clock back manually etc. it keeps jumping forward one hour (I'm on GMT time zone, so not sure if you hard-coded the 1 hour time difference for Germany).

Strange indeed but I'm just reverting back to unticking network time sync...

ps. your patch also did not uninstall correctly, had to use sktools in the end.

But good effort :)

Keep it up....
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Good to know. Will update the uninstall procedure tonight. It must work...

Anyway, let me check a few things in advance:

1. Do you use any tweaking tools? If yes name them pls...

2. What is your current provider?

3. After apply my patch you should have the time switch immediatly. It might be that there is a need for a reboot.

4. I'm still working on a global TZI list. It's hard to sort out all this things and it might be that GMT is currently not listed - or working. Where are you currently living? i.e. If you are living within High Wycombe than London is good enough for me.

I guess point 4 is related to you. From my point of view this is currently the problem but I need to double check.

and finaly...

5. If you are familiar with a registry editor (CERegEditor) than send me over this key when you have your current and valid timezone within the device:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time]

"TimeZoneInformation"=????????????

I would need the whole key.

Regards,

MrT69
[HD2 General] p50kombi:
allright..here goes :)

1. I do use bsb tweaks for some stuff, but nothing major, mainly for rotation support

2. T-mobile, as you can see in my information

3. Did see timeswitch after reboot, but it was an hour ahead ;)

4. I live near Salisbury at the moment

5. I'll try and attach an export of the key you mentioned (as it is far too long to copy :) )

Good luck and hope you can sort this as HTC does sod-all apparently :)
[HD2 General] MrT69:
Thanks m8! ;)

I will check BsBTweaks also because you are not the only one who has problems because of this tool.

Unfortunatly currently I have no contact to the developer for the BsB tool but I try to get in contact with him or her.
[HD2 General] troed:
4. I live near Salisbury at the moment

Salisbury - Wiltshire ? Does the "Woodyates-College" still exist ? Had a great time there some 33 years ago ............. :D
[HD2 General] p50kombi:
couldn't tell you mate...

Originally from Holland, moved here about 2 years ago.

Haven't heard of the place but Salisbury is a great town...

Lovely "cultural buildings" (pubs) :)
