Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

I cant get this to work. What am i doing wrong?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Sure, you can start by reading the post right above yours which is also post #39.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

I know you and I talked about this but everyone doesnt know what you have really done to try to correct this and get this customization to work for you so give some info on what you have done and what you are getting.

I personally have "SMS Sent" notification disabled as it aggravates the **** out of me with as many txt as I do a day.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

It doesnt bother me at all. Instead of saying "Messege Sent" i want it to read what i want it read. I like cause i at least know it was sent out.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Oh yeah I go to the Reg Key "MessageSent" and the Value is MessageSent. I deleated the value and put something else in and it just stays the same. With no effect on it at all.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Is there some kind of program needed to make all these changes?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Yes that I know of. One I use is a Reg editor and file explorer is Called "Total Commander" type it in to google and it should be the first result. Its like ghisler.com or something like that.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

weedahoe, you can add this to your list as well. It came to me in a dream! Well, the using bits parts did and I verified it this morning.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

I know you mention about making audio louder. I have tried that route and my ringer volume is still low. When played with media player, they sound loud. When played under the ringtone review or when someone calls me, the audio is not loud. Is there any other way to make the ringer volume louder thru the registry?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

THere are a few things you can try.

1) re-encode your tone with a higher bitrate
2) use an application called WavePad to amplify the audio
3) there is an app for the PPC called PhotoContactsPro ( latest version I know of is v5.08 ) and in the ringing settings there is an option called "OUTDOOR" and it makes it super loud.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Is there any settings in the registry that can be changed?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Yes:

HKLM\WebSite\PPCGeeks\6700\"The Most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks"
IsThisACompletePostOnChangingTheRegistry = "Yes"

Seriously, Yes all things in the registry can be changed. This whole thread discusses those changes and what they do. DO NOT change a setting to see what it does! This can render your phone unusable, or a BRICK. weedahoe has compiled a nice list and can be found in the first few posts of this thread.

voice command to read slowly because she was saying things way too fast and i didn't understand what she was complaining about...

to do so,

hkcu >> software >> microass (microsoft) >> speech >> voices >> DefaultTTSRate = 2

Default is 4. The more you move up in number, the faster michelle talks.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Michelle huh? Is that official or bootleg? ;-) Thanks for the add to the list.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

BUMP.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Can anyone tell a difference with this? Does it make WM6.1 faster or slower? I can't tell a difference but I haven't had a chance to really load down my system yet.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Well done Weedahoe! Thanks for the hard work and time it took to compile this list of tweaks. The community is grateful. :thumbright:

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

One other thing with Wavepad. If you are using the trial program and your trial runs out. An old trick is to change the year on your system clock back to before you dled the program.
This doesn't work everytime, but I know when I set mine back to 2001 it works without a problem. :)

I usually shorten the MP3 I want down to about 20-30 seconds, then go to effects and run the DC offset Correction, High Pass filter set with the general audio cleanup, then finally the remove hum & hiss set with the normal remove hum & hiss. Finally I'll save it as a VBR MP3 between 32 & 64 with a 7 on the quality & channels set to stereo. That usually works. Some recordings you can only do so much with if the original is poor then the final will be poor. If you are recording the clip, do it at the highest quality setting first then go back and format it and save at the lower quality setting.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Several new people have PMed me about this so Im bumping it.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Bump!!! And Will Someone Sticky This Thread!!!!!!

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

i have a phonealarm skin that shows the time but has a leading zero ... does anyone know how to remove the leading zero?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

You mean as in military time? Just change it to regular time (12H) if thats what it is.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

it seems the leading zero is built into the skin i am using .. had to disable using skin settings

to change regional settings for leading zero i went to
settings/system/regional settings, time tab
h:mm:ss instead of hh:mm:ss

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

You can go to :

HKLM\nls\OverRides
"STFmt"="H:mm:ss "

To set it what you want. This is my setting for military time to Today Clock. You may have it set to "HH:mm:ss ", the two "hh"s will add the leading zero. I beleive you need to create this key to override the system setting of "hh:mm:ss "...

edit: almost forgot, a lower case "h" is 12hr format, an uppercase "H" is 24hour format...

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

ok so i haven't seen this and know its possible, i just don't have the confidence to try it.
basically to make a reg edit to enable a button or menu item to turn on the flash light.
this might come in handy and would be easier then going into the camera and turning on the flash light

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

right on i'd use it. i'll have a look at the registry a little later when i'm bored see if i can figure it out. if anyone knows how post up. :mrgreen:

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Why. The heck. Isn't. THIS. STICKIED?!

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

There are a few programs that do this.
The one I'm familiar with is called VJCandela

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Is there a way to hide the bottom bar that shows the labels for the softkey on the Today Screen?

Thanks

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

nope, there is not, sry

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Some programs can do that, only one I know for sure is WisBar http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com
Buts its not free, try the trail one out.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

There are also ways to do it without using WisbarAdvance3.
Try this method.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Hi,
I did the below edit, but the notifications won't stop even after I've read or dismissed the message.

How can I stop the notification?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Ok, so let me absorb and regurgitate it for complete understanding. You turned the repeat on and when you get a msg you may not know it so it does repeat and then you realize it so you check it and dismiss it and then it keeps repeating? Is that right?

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

That is the problem with that hack, you can't turn of the notifications so it's garbage... I saw this program last week that might work http://freewareppc.com/utilities/notifyme.shtml I havn't tried it because I don't have a use for it but it might help you.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

Adanced Configuration Tool with do it for you.

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>OEM>TFLOSettings>EnableCube change to 0
"disable cube"

Re: The most COMPLETE compilation of hacks and teaks
 

What does this do?
