Touch Pro2 Reg Edits/Stuff to backup

[ckeegan]

Anyone have any luck with a registry edit to change the weather update interval for the Verizon Touch Pro2? Right now, "my location" only seems to update the weather on the home screen every 2 hours or so. I'm shooting for 15 minutes.

Also the battery poll interval. Is the number you enter in seconds or milliseconds. My guess is milliseconds since the number is already so high.
Also it should be stated that the weather update is for sense 2.1 and 2.5 only not for TF3D.

You can only change the update interval if you have the new wm6.5 stock rom from verzion. The 6.1 rom interval can't be changed.

Disable/Enable 6.5 Lock
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\LockSc reen]
"Enable"=dword:00000000

Cell Signal in Taskbar 7 bars instead of 5
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction \CDMA]
"SignalStrengthLevel"=dword:00000007

Another wifi scan interval location
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\WiFi]
"ScanInterval"=dword:00000003

Could this be changed to like 15 or something? Imagine the reception....

I do have the 6.5 stock ROM, and I thought it was pretty stupid for it lacking the option to set an interval. You can check the "update automatically" box, but who knows what that interval is, 2 hours or so?

Anyway, I added the registry entry, and set the dec to 15. I'm now at 18 minutes with no update. Interesting. Any other thoughts?

The interval is not guaranteed but it will be close. Give it a day or two and see how it goes. You also have to soft reset after making the change.

Anyone care to put in a sample reg file "format" so that XDA_UC will read them? I cannot get that to work ever, no matter what program I'm using... UGH!

Here's an example:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting]
"ShowEmergencyCallAlertPage"=dword:00000001
