Hi,

I've prepared install cabs of the improved HTC USBToPC PopUp from the Touch Pro's ROM for the Diamond users. A new choice "Internet Sharing" appears when an USB cable is plugged into Diamond.

http://smartmania.cz/images/forumnews/diamond_net_sharing.jpg

I've divided app onto 2 cab files:
- HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.WWE.cab - application's binary + english language support
- HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.i18n.cab - additional languages

At this time supported languages are - English, Dutch, Italian, German, Czech, Swedish, French, Greek, Spanish, Polish, Danish, Chinese Traditional, Portuguese Portugal, Russian,Norwegian and Hebrew. I can add new languages on demand, but i need some cooperation:
- file(s) \windows\HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe.wxyz.mui (wxyz is a 4 digit code) from the localized Diamond's ROM
- translation of the strings "Internet Sharing" and "Use phone as modem" in the requested language

Install:
1) install HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.WWE.cab
2) restart your device
3) install HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.i18n.cab if you want to use any supported non-english language

Thanks to MRE-net, lucausee, krheinwald, mjirsa, solidpowder, foxman01, DJACID, neo9596, Krzysiec and others who helped me with localizations

Special thanks to authors of very helpfull tools: unsinger, reshack, xn resource editor, msinger and quick cab

20.9.2008 14:50 GMT+2: added Traditional Chinese (TW) language
21.9.2008 13:00 GMT+2: added Portuguese Portugal (PTG) language

It seems to be a great app ! I'll test it :)

About your question :
- translation of the strings "Internet Sharing" and "Use phone as modem" in the requested language

In french you can respectively translate these by "Partage de connexion Internet" and "Utiliser le téléphone en tant que modem"

cool app, but about the ''internet sharing'' , does this mean that the Diamond will share its internet connection when connected to 3G/EDGE for example?

or it is that the PC will share its internet connection with diamond? ( PC as a host here)

zipiik
19th September 2008, 08:14 PM
internet sharing means that diamond will share its internet connection (3G/EDGE/GPRS) with pc.

if you want to share PC's connection to diamond, use "active sync"

Once again, very handy app. I took the liberty to extract the binaries and created an NL version together with the binaries. Now I've only 1 cab to install and it works great.

Again thanx man for creating this app.

This is my attempt at translating the WWE mui file to Portuguese.
I've tried it in my device and it worked.
I'm posting the original Portuguese mui (with only the options for ActiveSync and Disk Drive), and the translated English mui (renamed to Portuguese localization).
Take a look at it, and let me know if it's good. If not you have the translated strings you need to make a good one.

I tryied to install this cab (the english language only) on my swto's vanilla rom (this rom does not contain inside it the standard usbtopc popup package) and nothing is happened..maybe this app is just an extension of the normal "2 choises" usbtopcp app? Or is it standalone and I missed something?

TIA

GriFolle
21st September 2008, 12:51 PM
I reply to myself...is not a standalone app.

So I installed 2 cabs:
One for the standard UsbToPcPopup
This one for the internet sharing feature

Could you please provide an "all in one" cab? I'll appreciate this...

Thanks another time

i have no problem with the font, xn resource editor's font support looks perfect...please can you send me all \windows\HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe.wxyz.mui files from your diamond? because code 0409 is for english as i know. maybe you have more mui files in your device (czech devices have two files - with codes 0409 and 0405) or the hebrew localization overwrites english files.

this app is only PopUp window, not full usb2pc application, i wanted to minimize affect of the application to the system because of the compatibility. i've tested it only on original ROM version 1.93.

if you send me full UsbToPC cab, i can try to make "full" cab for ROMs without this feature.

update:
i've found cab with the USB2PC v1.0.18143432.1. do someone have archive with the full USB2PC v2.0.18172128.1? it would be helpfull for all diamond users.

Thanks Zipiik, I've discovered the issue:
Your cab is "almost" complete...it's just the the rgu file that miss in it...I've extracted it from another cab and if I add it to my registry all work...
I attach it to this post, if you will create another cab with this inside, changing its extension to .rgu (and maybe also renamed as the dsm still present in your version?), all should go fine.
I think it will be very useful for lite roms owners...

Thank you.

sorry for delay. this is the problem of all ROMs localized by the additional SW. if the localization is in ROM, original mui file retrurns from ROM.
you can download the mui file HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe.0409.zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420433&highlight=connection&page=6, unpack and copy it into \windows directory or leave intallated my i18n cab, all mui files in it should be compatible with 2 choices popup.

i've read your registry file, and your registry setting should be done during the installation by this part of the _setup.xml

<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\MASD">
<parm name="USBToPCPopUp" value="2_0_18172128_1" datatype="string" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Services\HTCUSBToPC PopUp">
<parm name="Module" value="\Windows\HTCUSBToPCSrv.dll" datatype="string" />

<parm name="Index" value="0" datatype="integer" />

</characteristic>
<characteristic type="HKLM\Software\OEM\USBtoPC">
<parm name="AskConnect" value="1" datatype="integer" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>


i've no chance to test all the registry settings, because most of them are included in the 2 choice version of the popup. i've test the value \HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\MASD\USBToPCPopUp - before the installation of my cab the value is "1_0_18143432_1", after install is "2_0_18172128_1", after uninstall is "1_0_18143432_1". it looks like installation writes into registry.

internet sharing means that diamond will share its internet connection (3G/EDGE/GPRS) with pc.

great - this will come in handy as soon as I start using my phone instead of my additional data contract ;)

just some smarta***ing on the wording here:

'Use phone as moden' doesn't quite describe internet-sharing. In my opinion this would mean setting up a dial-up-connection on PC to dial an ISP (which is possible also using UMTS).
So I think it should say 'Use phone as router', 'Use phone as Internet-router', 'Connect to phone's internet' or something like this...

(Shameless crospost as i see you moved from that other thread)

Great job your doing here Zipiik

A funny side anecdote.

I recently dumped Swift's Rom and found he had the latest Jblend Java.

I then went on to ask him where he had it from not realizing i had uploaded that version myself.

Same goes for this cab ;)

Updated Blackstone Volume Control, the cab has dutch 0413 MUI file but it can simply be replaced by the original MUI file.

It has a new Overlay for some applications.

It might be that the old Volume control Service needs to be removed from registry first before trying to install this one.

Is there any way to open this popup by hand (with a shortcut)?

I would love to change the setting during a connection, so I can change from Active Sync connection to Disk Drive mode without disconnecting and reconnecting the cable.

Something else:

Yes, you can create a shortcut to \windows\HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe.

I would love to change the setting during a connection, so I can change from Active Sync connection to Disk Drive mode without disconnecting and reconnecting the cable.

Not sure this would work, since you should "Safely Remove" the disk drive from your computer to ensure all files were transferred properly before you could reconnect via ActiveSync, which would likely not be detected without disconnecting/reconnecting the cable. Maybe hot swapping between the two will become available in the next version of WM and Windows 7?

First suggestion doesn't work...
Thanx anyway...

When I go to Settings\Connections\USB to PC I can change the mode during the connectio, but it's too much clicks for me ::)

Fortunately I was able to create a shortcut to USBtoPC.exe in the Windows folder, but I don't get this lovely popup...
And no extended functionality either...

Is there a way to switch between them whilst having the phone connected to the PC. Rather than me unpluggin the phone then plugging it back in?

Thanks

Can I use the modem functionality on any random computer? Or do I need to have ActiveSync installed before I can use it?

First suggestion doesn't work...
Thanx anyway...

When I go to Settings\Connections\USB to PC I can change the mode during the connectio, but it's too much clicks for me ::)

Fortunately I was able to create a shortcut to USBtoPC.exe in the Windows folder, but I don't get this lovely popup...
And no extended functionality either...

if you create link for \windows\HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe, not for \windows\HTCUSBToPC.exe, popup appears after the clik. but if the mode of the connection will switch correctly...it's a question :)

i'm sorry, i don't plan new features for some time, because i'm a little bit busy. i've prepared the cab with the htc touch pro's popup for me and the office stuff in our company and then published to xda's community because several people asked for it.

we really appreciate it very much. :D
If an when you do decide to make any changes, I think a good one would be the option to be able to select the type of connection the user wants to use when selecting "Internet sharing" to have the option to also select inside that button "USE PHONE AS MODEM" and "USE SPRINT" to tether with.

Again, thank you for your contribution to the community!

Has anyone tried this with the Xperia X1? I installed it, and I get an extra checkbox under Settings > Connections > USB to PC, but when I connect it to my PC, it just chooses ActiveSync or Diskdrive (whichever I set under USB to PC), and doesn't ask me anything.

Feel like upping the source? no good to me but there are a multitude of others that may add to it. :)

hi, if i've source code, i would give it to the community. the pop-up is HTC's application which can be found on the new devices diamond and touch pro. the version from the touch pro has 3rd option "Internet sharing". i liked this version but i didn't want to install unofficial ROM, because my diamond works fine. all i did is i've prepared is small install cab and then localization files.
adding new choise is about writting all new app. it shloud be easy, but i'm out of the free time.

Thank you. But problem continue. There is only selection as 'Enable advanced netwok functionality" in "Settings->Connections->USB to PC"
not 'Ask about connection type when I connect'.

When I run "\windows\HTCUSBToPCPopUp.exe" Pic.2 appears and no selection and no move screen; it dissappears after 2 secons.

When trying out this fine feauture I get a mysterious picture. Language should be German, but no text for "use as USB modem" appears. The function behind the missing text is absolutely ok.
What's wrong?

You don't have a VGA device!
And you don't have a Diamond or PRO...
That's why it doesn't work as expected!

Have you installed both cabs from the first page? - HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.WWE.cab and HTCUSBToPCPopUp_2_0_18172128_1.i18n.cab

Hi zipiik!
Yes, of curse, in this sequence. Tested once again, same "error".
Then tested without USB connection and the device was completely restartet - it works! Maybe the connected device blocked something, don't know. But now it's all ok.

Maybe I've overlooked a "feature" in this thread: is it normal that I have to hurry up for my decision which kind of connection I want to choose? The menu disappears very fast when not touched. Not a problem, just a question.

Regards
S.

I installed the cab no problem, and got the internet sharing option.

I tried to connect via USB cable, but I got an error code 67, vision username / password may be incorrect.

How to identify what my vision account credentials should be?

I checked the settings in the native Sprint account, but other then seeing it dial #777 for using the internet, I couldnt' discren my credentials.

Does someone know the registry values that are modified for the USB to PC settings... like which registry values set the default to activesync or Disk Drive and the registry key for the default option check box...

If you pick one of them and hit the CheckBox to always use, that will become your default. You can remove the checkbox (turn on always ask) with the following
Start > Settings > Connection > USBtoPC <-- going by memore as I just did an HR

or you can manually change the registry with the following,
[HKLM\Software\OEM\USBtoPC]
"AskConnect" = "1" (Always ask)
"AskConnect" = "0" (Don't ask)

If this didn't answer your question, please elaborate on what you want to do or change. I may have misunderstood. :)

Hi!

Anyone know how to switch to an "Local Harddisk" instead of an "Removable Media" ?
I found at HKLM\Software\OEM\USBtoPC\ the key Device_Type , but it seems to change nothing!
I need that because i use the Recycler, and this is under Windows only available when the Device is shown as "Local Harddisk"
As you can see at:
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/nueMassStorage.aspx
(i think HTC has only copy this Software) it´s possible to switch.
But when i install nueMassStorage on my HD, it isnt work as USB-Device anymore...

Thx Tokl

P.S. I know WM5torage can do this, but it´s so slow on my Touch HD! USBtoPC is about 5 Times faster...

I was gonna do the same question...searched a lot at the forum and didn't found;
Did some registry search for "USB" and for "pc" and found some entries:

\\HKLM\Controlpanel\usb to pc

\\HKLM\Controlpanel\pcconnection

\\HKLM\Comm\Defaultconnections\'USB

But none of those changed from USB to Disk drive when i've changed the values...
Anyone? Tnx!
