- Disable Notification - This stops the HTC notification manager running and restores the default WM functionality.- 1. Go to HKLM\Services\NOTIFICATIONMANAGER\Flags.
2. It should be 0 by default - change it to 4.

Thanks,

install this and they will no longer be greyed out.

Is anybody else having formatting issues with their web browsers? The stock Opera (9.7?) worked really well for me in the 6.1 rom, but in the 6.5 rom the formatting sucks for the stock Opera, Opera 10 and ie. It's making wikipedia (my favorite night-time reading) pretty much worthless to me. Anybody know of a fix or a different browser (other than Skyfire) to try?

I tried installing this rom and I also tried the registry edits, and although they un-grayed the "Flash light for..." option, it didn't stop the damn green light from blinking when I got an email. I set it to "flash light for 5 minutes," as I've heard that at least that'll cut down on how long it flashes, but I'd still LOVE to get rid of the freaking liight entirely.

Change Left or Right Softkeys

HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\Manila

For Left Softkey (for example, setting it to All Contacts)"
"HomeLSKText"="All Contacts"
"HomeLSKPath"=Manila:/people\browserlayer\?.page

For Right Softkey (for example, setting it to Comm Manager):
"HomeRSKText"="Comm Mgr"
"HomeRSKPath"=\Windows\CommManager.exe

Nice, now does anyone know off hand what the path for all settings is, so I can set the left key to that?

Mine's Phone as well. I kind of liked it being Camera on 6.1, but with a camera Quicklink, I guess I don't need that either.

Anyone got a registry key to change that softkey?

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=88640

There is a lot of valuable tweaks bundled together there that really cleanup the stock ROM and make it faster and make much more program memory available. A thread I found very helpful and wanted to share.

Thanks!

All you really need to do is three reg edits, with no cabs required if you like.

1. Go to [HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
create a new DWORD Value called "Flags" and set the value data to "4"
(if it is already there then skip)

2. Reboot

3. Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
and delete the "isext.dll" entry

4. Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
and change "ForceCellConnection" from "PhoneAsModem" to "Sprint"

(please omit the "" in all of these entries)

You should now be able to use ICS, but make sure your data connection is already intialized prior to using (open a web browser of check your mail) or you may be asked for a user name and password. I have my email checking every 5 minutes so it is never an issue for me.

Sorry for the stupid question, but I have done the edits above (the isext.dll wasn't there when I searched for it), I open internet sharing and it doesn't give me an options to chose connectin type like 6.1 did. I take it since the edit above on the 'forcedcellconnection to sprint' that it is automatically going to the sprint data, so I don't have to choose when I open internet sharing between the phone as modem and sprint?

Sorry for the dumb question, this forum has been a HUGE help for me. Thanks to everybody.
