Enable HSDPA icon tweak/hack in registry?

[dparm]

On WM6 "Professional" (for PDA phones), there's the registry key "HKLM/Software/OEM/RIL/EnableHSDPAIcon = 1" to make the phone show an H when on HSDPA.

This key does nothing on my BlackJack 2 (WM6 "Smartphone"). Is there an equivalent registry key or hack for this?

There is soemthign equivolent, my Q displays different icons for EVDO, Roaming, and 1xRTT, and it uses WM5 SP edition. (dont know how that helps but thoght I'd mention that there *IS* an equivolent SP function)

Also look in your windows folder and make sure you have the icons, if you dont have the HSDPA icon it wont show up, even if you can tweak the settings.

[dparm]

HKLM\Comm\Cellular\RIL\CHSDPANotification = 0

That string is found on some Q9h phones apparently, but that key isn't in my BJ2. Adding it and setting to 0 or 1 does nothing.

Check on txcaesar.net Da_G has it enabled in his BJ1 6.1 rom and he could probably tell you.

[dparm]

He never got back to me.

Oh well.

I stumbled across the number sequence to access the "test mode" screen and if you haven’t messed with it yet, it’s a must...from the home screen, type *#9999*0# and presto, your have a whole heap of info and settings…like the internal GPS…after you enter *#9999*0#, a debug screen pops up and some of the specs are displayed, hit the back button twice (not the preset back button, the one labled back)...so the first option is Debug screen, 2nd option should be Version Information etc…from that screen, press 9, should take you take you to a screen with 7 options, last one being Factory Test; press 9 again and your taken to the GPS menu J you’ll see you can view the current GPS info, reset it and so forth…if you select view gps info by pressing 2, you’ll then see that you can view the current channel info by pressing 1 and you’ll discover that there isn’t any open channels (surprise!) ha, ok, get back to the screen that would let you Enter Standalone GPS and hit 0 to select it…you’ve just manually initiallized the GPS! After that, one thing I like to do is to open another NMEA port (from the same menu you can view current channel info, it’s option 3) NOW after you’ve done that, assuming you phone has line of sight, if you go back in and view the channel info, theres a lot more now, haha. And even if you don’t have LOS, you’ll notice that your phone is now at least searching for the satellites.

p.s - note that you may wanna repeat the process when your done but this time to end the gps mode, otherwise you'll chew up your battery much faster than normal. lemme know how well it works and if you find anything else within that menu...OH, and be very careful, for it's pretty easy to get curious within all the options of that menu...and just as easy to jack up your phone, prolly even brick it. I, for one, have had to completely master reset and reload at least 3 times because of this menu.

my phone is telling me that the command *#9999*0# is not supported. could this be due to the custom rom i have?

I found some reg hack in a china forum you can take a look for reference

Enable Network Selection Mode:
HKEY Current User\ControlPanel\PhoneNetSelMode\
Set value "option" from 0 to 1
Restart your device.

Enable band selection:
By doing this you can pick automatic/North America 3G/GSM W850/W1900(3G) 850/1900(GSM) 900/1800 (GSM)
1. Go to Home Screen
2. Type *#1546792*# and then send
3. You will see new screen that indicates that Band
Selection was enabled
4. Now you can go to Settings/Phone/Network/Band
Selection

Enabling Search Frequency:
This hack will allow you to choose the speed at which your phone updates the signal strength icon. Please bear in mind that continuous will have a significant impact on your battery life. The default setting is Medium.
[HKLM\Software\Motorola\SearchFreq] Change the Enable DWord string to 1. Done and done.

Tether With ICS:
1. Navigate to HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings
2. In here will be a value named "ForceCellConnection"
3. Change "ATT ICS" to "" (make it blank) and reboot your device.

ICS will now give you the option to choose either ATT ICS or MEdia Net. ATT ICS will not work without a tethering plan on your wireless account because of the fact that its set up to connect to a secure WAP network, but MEdia Net will work as long as you have the signal and the basic pay-as-you-go feature (definitely not recommended).

ATT ICS uses "isp.cingular" (Private IP address assigned) whereas MEdia Net uses "wap.cingular" (general internet).

Enable Editing of ATT ICS and Media Net settings:
1. Navigate to HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4...}\Connections
2. There will be 2 keys in here. One for ATT ICS and MEdia Net. In those keys there will be a value of ReadOnly
3. Change "ReadOnly" from 1 to 0
4. Restart your device.
5. Upon restart, you may now delete or change the default information.

To restore the "Music" key launching Windows Media Player:
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd
Change the APP2_path key to read: "\windows\wmplayer.exe"
Restart your device.

Enable editing of your Proxy:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4 C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\Cingular WAP
Change "ReadOnly" from 1 to 0, and restart your device Upon restart, you may now delete or change the proxy information.

Change ATT MMS Settings:
HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Motorola\MMS\Profiles\ AT&T MMS
Change the value of "Lock" from 1 to 0. Restart your device.
