Re: Touch Pro Essentials

Yes, putting tape under the battery cover makes it slightly harder to get the battery cover off.

Try this:
1. Have dry hands and a dry phone. No sweaty hands, and no phone that's been handled by sweaty hands.

2. You can take scotch tape and wrap it around backwards around your hand. This gives you a grip on the battery cover.

I ran into this issue and got scared, but now I know how to do it, and when I have no tape, I simply wash my hands and whipe the phone down with a damp paper towel and it's fine (or just rub you hands on your shirt.)

It's just snug, but it'll comeoff.

Re: Touch Pro Essentials

I cabbed up the weather fix from the first post to add all US cities to the weather selection tab on TF3D in case anyone is interested.

Edit: fixed the cab to include cities in Washington and Louisiana in v2, sorry it took so long, I have been getting back up and running from switching over to Windows 7

Last edited by rsbrown69; 02-01-2009 at 10:14 PM. Reason: Updated cab to fix Washington and Louisiana

Re: Touch Pro Essentials

I redid the Internet sharing cab, I removed all "extra" regedits (22 previously, now 3) that were in there before dealing with backlight, power button etc and now it only performs the regedits specified in the first post of this thread. The name is the same but the properties are updated so you can tell the difference. I also changed it to allow the user to uninstall this fix if you don't like it. All of your power and backlight settings will stay the same as you had set before.

Certainly an overwhelming list, lol, but a lot of good stuff! Thanks!

Two comments/suggestions:

1) As a matter of curiosity, what's the point of having multiple versions of some of these apps? The S2* apps come to mind as I glance over the list...

2) Because versions change so often and to give credit where it's due, I generally find it's more useful to link to the original source link for the installers rather than bundle and redistribute.

1) some people find different versions more stable

2) this is mainly for people who ask "just got my pro, what programs should i get"... its to help em out... my goal is to show links to original posts when i have the time... its time consuming

you can use the freeware "TOTAL COMMANDER" and edit the file thread_sms.html. You can do a search to easily find it...windows directory.

look for this part:
<inbox:content id="COMPOSESUBECT" width="98%" height=35 spell...

and play around with the number in height (in this case 35). change to 70 and get 3 lines for text replies. Just change the numbers and see what works for you.

*you need to soft reset after editing the file.
