[Adrynalyne]

Run it. Its a finger friendly contact adder thingy.

[jonlee83]

hmm i dont think i have that file.

If you are running CC20, I am positive you do. Its probably on the rom shipped with the Omnia too.

I have read throught his entire thread from start to finish once before, and after being completely drained by all the information I thank you all for the tips in making making my omnia a little more user friendly.

I have one thing that I need and cannot seem to find again.

There was an app here or a reg hack that i used to make the x ACTUALLY close the application i was using rather than minimise it.

Cant remember for the life of me what it is called, PLEASE someone point me in the right direction.

Have trid magic button, works but when i go to main menu and use exit to close it doesnt lol.

and have tried HTC Task Manager, which seems to do nothing at all and cannot even find it to uninstall it.

thanks in advance for anyone that can rem,ind me where or what the hack/app i need is, cheers

yes, HTC task manager works. in order to make it close make sure the quick menu is enabled by changing to registry key for it:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\TaskManager
Dword: EnableQMenu

Set it to 1.

after that's done, the icon in the top right corner should look like two and half horizontal lines and an arrow pointing down.

open that up, select the wrench icon.

go to the "Button" tab and select "Enable the 'X' button to end running programs" and then "End programs by tapping 'X'"

you should be set after that.

I like the less cluttered Samsung Today 2 but do not care for the Phonebook at the top. Is there a way to direct that to the normal contacts list?

Let me know what you think and if there are any other good one that should be incorporated.

Note: This is based upon the assumption you have Microsoft .NET 3.5 already installed.

To Use:
- open any registry editor such as Resco and import the .reg file
- Soft Reboot
- Done!

What does "Activate and Performance Tune File Cache" do?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE]
"limit"=dword:00008000


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\System\StorageManager\FATFS]
"CacheSize"=dword:00001000
"Flags"=dword:00000044
"CacheDll"="diskcache.dll"
"Util"="fatutil.dll"
"EnableCache"=dword:00000001
"Paging"=dword:00000001
"Dll"="fatfsd.dll"
"FriendlyName"="FAT FileSystem"

Are these the ones for the activate and tune?

After i did these my phone wont change its orientation where the d-pad is pointing to the north. I does the normal upright where the dpad is point south and both lanscapes.

Anyone know why?

i910 1% battery driver. Patched by kabkab on Modaco so all thanks go to him. You must use Resco Explorer or Total Commander to overwrite your existing driver. Reports are very good so far but you install this at your own risk.
