So you know how you get crappy images from the sprint proxy server? (like when you go to google and you see a grey box behind the compressed grainy google logo) Well, lets say you want to see pictures, but the real natural picture, and dont want the ugly compressed version, or lets say you need to download album art from the net to put into WMP10, you want colorful art right? Here's a solution.

Heres the correct reg edit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows-> CurrentVersion -> Internet Settings -> 5.0 -> User Agent

change default to the following:

Mozilla/4.0 ; Blazer/4.0

make sure to do a soft reset and refresh your browser

Remove Wireless Manager, Power Icons & Screen Rotation from System Tray

First let me thank everyone for sharing what you have learned on our 6700's. I hope this is one of many post's with something helpful in it.... anyway here it goes...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr
DWord: Keep Set Value: 0 0x0(0)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power
DWord: ShowIcon Set Value: 0 0x0(0)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr
DWord: ShowIcon Set Value: 0 0x0(0)

HOW TO: Permanently Disable Flight Mode

You must have a registry editor installed on the PPC. I used PHM RegEdit

Go to the registry and change the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> ControlPanel -> PhoneExtendFunction -> CDMA

Change FlightModeSwitchByPnHEndKey to 0

This will prevent the phone from going into Flight Mode if you accidentally press the End Call button for too long.

Note that Flight Mode can still be used by tapping the signal strength meter. (I wish I could disable that too)

I shut off my blinking LED by going:

And change the Index value from 1 to 0
Then soft reset.
This is for both the blue and green LEDs.

[EDIT. Note: This deactivated the vibrate mode on my phone]

Speed up dialing on your 6700:

Turn off keypad tones:

Press green phone button
Bottom right "MENU"
OPTIONS
KEYPAD = OFF
OK
speeds up the dialing process a lil bit

But remember one thing- If you turn the tones off, then you will lose your ability to send "TouchTones" by hitting certain digits. No dialing of extensions, PIN numbers etc.

To prevent your Today background screen from getting reset every time you do a soft reset, take any file management program and go to \Windows\StartUp. There should be a link to a program called __cusTSKTEMP.exe. Delete this link (or move it someplace else if you feel awkward about deleting things inside \Windows). I have tested this on a Verizon phone

Voice Command Volume Fix
Open your regedit program
Go to
HKEY Current User - Control panel - Sound Catagories - Voice Command (or Voicecommand1)-
click on voice command(or voicecommand1) and look for the keys and value section

In the settings
Change:

Once you have the VOice command settings set for the phone for announce calls, etc
Then call your phone and see if you notice an increase in volume.

If you are running any 3rd party apps, you might need to make sure the volume is set to full.

How to keep your backlight (on battery power) from reverting back to 10 seconds
\HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\LockLevel

ignore the LockLevel key inside the LockLevel folder...RENAME the folder to LockLevelx...i tried various other strategies but this caused the phone to eventually recreate the LockLevel folder with the proper key inside...but this time the key was set to 0 instead of 1. it's been 2 weeks with multiple soft resets and the backlight settings have been surviving as they should...

Add AM/PM to the time
HKLM\nls\overrides

1. Create String: S1159
Value = Am
2. Create String: S2359
Value = Pm
3. Create String: STFmt
Value = h:mm tM

Thought this was a must have for those whos nights run into mornings and visa versa. The srings and values are case sensitive.

Fix for "Pocket PC Networking: Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address." while connected via ActiveSync.

Set HKLM/Comm/RNDISFN1/Parms/TcpIp/EnableDHCP to 0

BTW, This problem is caused by what appears to be a bug in WM5 settings page for the 'Remote-NDIS Host' in Start-Settings-Connections-Network Cards-Configure Network Adapters. When you tap Remote-NDIS Host to view the settings, it is set to use a specific IP address but the address is blank. WM5 will not let you exit this settings page unless you:
A - enter an IP address
B - tap use server assigned IP address

I solved it by going to Settings|Connections|Configure Network adapters. Set
the 'Remote-NDIS Host' settings to use a specific IP address of 169.254.2.1,
subnet 255.255.0.0, default gateway 169.254.2.2

This is what they should be anyway, everything should work now and no
annoying message.

Repeat Notifications--Turn them on

This will enable the "Repeat" option within Sounds and Notifications for Phone: Missed Call.

Changing this registry setting enables the Repeat option as well as "Flash Light for 15 minutes". You can make changes to any of the options, as needed and the Repeat should stay enabled.

Alternatively, you can do a quick FIND within your registry for "missed call" and this should help you to quickly locate the proper key.
