Tips and tricks
 

think we should have a section on how to make this work or work better

i'll put together a few i remember about from my mogul days. I am quite sure most will work. put as some people say use at your own risk

How to Disable SMS bubble:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settin gs\

If “Settings” branch does not exist, create a New Key with name as Settings. Then highlight Settings, and then create a new String Value key with value name as SMSNoSentMsg, with its value data as 1

------------------------------------------

Change softkeys on "Today" screen

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\keys\112 for left
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\keys\113 for right
You may not have a 113, but you can just make the 113 identical to 112 and change the "open" command. The value for "Default" controls what is displayed on the screen

------------------------------------------

Tethering - tested and works

1. Edit the following regestry entries. Hard part is finding a registry editor, but they are out there:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll" entry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
MaxCMCon=0

2. Start the Internet Sharing application.
3. Hit Connect In the Internet Sharing application.
4. Connect the Diamond to the Laptop/PC via USB
5. Done. No other applications needs to run on the PC/Laptop.

----------------------------------------


alot of these are found on the internet but if i find it on a website i'll list it below

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Exactly what I came for. I'm used to custom ROMs on the Mogul that have this already set. Thanks!

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Has anyone tried to use the diamond tweaker program on the pro? I love that program and was thinking about using it on my pro when I get it.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

I need a Smartskey program. I want it to turn "home" into start and "back" into close.

Re: Tips and tricks

Re: Tips and tricks

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Does anyone know if Advanced Configuration Tool, TF3D Config, and Diamond Tweak can all be installed on the same device? Or would they fight each other?

Re: Tips and tricks
 

yep i did except some stuff doesnt apply... otherwise amazing

Re: Tips and tricks
 

I have TF3D Config, Diamond Tweak and Diamond Hack all installed on the Diamond. Some offer the same but both all offer different also. I never installed Advanced Config.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

I second the need for this. Have you tried "smartskey" on it????

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Yes I did try smartsky. I had my copy edited to used the right softkey as "close". It really did nothing helpful that I could tell. Holding eithe button didn't do anything any it made my volume buttons stop working. It might have made the volume keys scroll but I didn't try them out. I need a program that makes it scroll on all screens but home. On home I want it to control the volume. Touch flo 3D is stupid in landscape mode. Give me HTC Home for that any day.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

wait so wut happens if i try to teather without the reghacks??

Re: Tips and tricks

Re: Tips and tricks
 

i think the greatest thing ever would be if someone could program the wheel to act as a scroll wheel when not in opera!

i really miss this feature from my Mogul

Re: Tips and tricks

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Here's the thread i started in the diamond forum like this:
Registry Tweaks/Hacks/Edits - Share them here!

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Reposting from the other thread I made:

Using the touch circular pad like an iPod, you can zoom in and out of webpages, and increase and decrease the size of the displayed text in messages/emails/etc.

Some new ones:

Do NOT enable Cleartype in Landscape (via reg edit or Tweaking program). It does not seem to be supported fully yet, and will cause issues such as lines of text bunched together or replaced with a "-".

Download Gyrator 2.
LINK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427805
Recommended Settings under Menu>Options>Events>Rotate>Edit Event: Leave only Portrait and Reverse Landscape checked. Click Apply.
Instead of the default of rotating every direction it is turned with Gyrator 2 installed, this will allow it to only rotate between the normal portrait and the landscape that is displayed when they keyboard is open.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

I had to create this entry "[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
MaxCMCon=0"
Did others have to do this??? - my internet sharing is working- that's how I am posting this!

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Nice functions with that hack, but I'm very timid about installing on my TP again. It seems my last TP didn't take to it very well. Or maybe it was coinsodence. I need a solid "YES it works fine on the TP with out any side effects". Also if there are any changes that need to be made to the REG for it to work correctly. Don't want to be doing anymore hard resets.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

The tweak tool your quoted post linked to prolly screwed you up. These regedits for IS only affect the IS app, nothing is changed regarding anything else on the pro, so there is no reason this would require a hard reset, unless you ****ed something up royally when you were regediting.

Re: Tips and tricks
 

found new feature, at least for me. CTRL+C and CTRL+V work for copying and pasting

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Where have you been? :wink:

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Let's not forget Ctrl+X to cut and Ctrl+A to select all. Pretty much all the standard CTRL+ functions in Windows work on here. Try THAT on an iPhone! ;)

Re: Tips and tricks
 

Ha, I was wondering what was the purpose of the CTRL button, because it didnt seem to work for copy and paste for me. I searched and just realized I had to hold it down the same time with CTRL+C and not press one then the other. I guess it would be cool if I could make it sticky keys though, just press CTRL then C to copy.

I also realized that text selection works (which I missed from my Centro).

Text Selection:
Ctrl+Shift+ arror keys to select back, forward, up or down text.
