[REF] WP7 Registry tweak (Updated 07/01/12)
- Thread starter xboxmod
- Start date
GoodDayToDie, thanks a lot for your kinda attention! I was hopping to have screen time out seconds because i know that there is the "never" option so maybe a 5sec could be done, thanks again.
the default value for the wireless on my intrinsic custom rom is 1
changing it to 4 makes it behave like the way u described..but not exactly, it does seem to reconnect when the phone wakes up from sleep
the value 4 is supposed to be OFF according to windows D state.
wonder how u came up with this theory.

Thanks for this, the native Bing app is excellent, much better than the Bing/Google/Yahoo mobile sites or provider mobile sites
Special app developed by ultrashot: search key mapping settings
Available in Dynamics roms only (and in my one
). Not for free distribution.

Yeah I can confirm Quick Launch is nice too
Turn off 3 button vibration
For those like me who hate to feel the haptic feedback under their fingers, when touching back/home/search button, I found this very interesting post

Can you please add this registry key to first post?
Enjoy it and thanks the user!

After using this I can't post to Twitter or Windows Live. I'm guessing there was one more place I needed to change my Live ID for social media stuff, it worked great for Marketplace and everything else.
Anyone know what to do?
Anyone know what to do?
At a minimum, try removing your Twitter account on the phone (and un-linking it from your WLID) and then setting it up again. Not sure if that will help with the posting to Live, though.
Tried removing the Twitter account but it gives me an 80048800 error. Pretty sure it's because it can't log in to the account, like I thought before...I guess I'll just spend some time flicking through the registry.
EDIT: Alright, I've done some testing. Here's what I've found:
I set up a Windows Live account using my old Live ID credentials, and low and behold, one of my accounts prompted me to "reconnect." that makes it extremely clear what the issue is: There's a registry key somewhere that has my old Live ID associated with it, and it's somewhere specific to social media.
Does anyone know where in the registry I could look to find social media credentials? I searched through most of the "Current User" folder, but I didn't see anything.
EDIT 2: Does anyone have a version of the registry that I can view on a computer? Just a text file or something? Or is there a way I an export my copy of the registry?

Has anyone found a way to keep the task bar active all the time so that the batt and signal stays on? I found a part of registry that may have control over it but am not sure as it must be part of rom value, cause after changing the values and restarting the device the values do not stay. Maybe because after a reboot the values are being restored from policy-files. If we can find the right part of registry, would it be possible to send a cab update to change it?

Make the following changes:
low Control
Flow control is used to control communication device such as modem and serial. There are 2 kinds of flow control, software and hardware. Hardware flow control is better since it will free the main processor from controlling the modem and serial ports, therefore making better internet experience. However sometimes hardware flow control is not compatible with connections therefore requiring software flow control. This tweak will enable hardware flow control.

HKLM\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers\Serial_Class\Config\EnableFlowSoft = 0are u sure these are the values, i beleive these has something to do with idle/sleep

Keyboard Click Volume
I'm looking for the registry value that controls the keyboard clicking sound volume. MSDN says it should be HKCU\ControlPanel\Volume\Key (DWORD 1 for low vol, 2 for loud vol, 0 for off) but changing that value on my phone doesn't change the key volume. Under HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds I see ImeAddToDictionary and ImeSelectCandidate which both control the volume of those keyboard events via InitVol settings. There is also \Keypress but that seems to be something else (and InitVol changes don't effect the typing (the referenced sound file HWandSW.wav is the wrong sound anyway). And under HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories I tried playing with InitVol settings for System and SystemNotification but didn't notice a change in typing volume. In HKLM\Software\Microsoft\FingerKB\Sounds you can see the sound files listed. I tried putting an InitVol key with value 10 but it doesn't change anything.
I've tried creating subkeys under ControlPanel called \Key and \Ime with an InitVol value but that does nothing. I've also done a registry search for what I suspect are the two keyboard sound files (KbdFunction.wav and KbdKeyTap.wav) and other keywords like KeyBd, click, tap etc.
If nobody knows where the registry entries to control this are, I think my next step is to edit the actual sound files by lowering their volume. To me the sound of the keyboard is annoyingly loud relative to the rest of the system. That said, I don't want to totally disable the sound either.

PS This is on a Focus S but I think it's a generic issue for all WPs.

No those are the values that i changed them to, to see if it changed the time-limits.
the default is:
ACUserIdle: 0
BattUserIdel: 0
LcokUserIdle: 10
There are other parts of registry that xboxmod had suggested but was unsuccessful also. The ones that i changed do not stay after restart, and yes they do have to do with idle time, but thought if there was to disable the idle that they would either stay on or not come on at all. Maybe someone will figure it out one day. Contable found the part of registry when he made cab update to change the taskbar with glass icons but he said he had not attempted to change the idletime.
If someone can disassemble the cab to see where it is writing to then maybe it will get us closer. Ill post the cab if someone wants to take a look into it, as i am unsure how to.

Try going to: current user/control panel/sounds.
there are alot of diff ones there. i am going to work and dont have time to look now but will look deeper when i get back home to see if i can find for you.
Thanks. I've been all over that folder (in my original post HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds meant Current User\ControlPanel\Sounds - sorry if HKCU is the wrong acronym).
That folder has these two Ime keys(ImeAddToDictionary and ImeSelectCandidate) which control a keyboard click press sound, just not the default one.

Had quick launch on my Omnia 7. If i am correct, it came up when pressing the search button. It started to fail (went back to the main screen when pressing search) so uninstalled it but now my search button will not do anything. Was it a seperate app or will I have to flash a rom again. (cant actually remember which one I flashed as it was a while ago).
I know its sad but really missing bing search

Now you on new LiveID email without factory reset!5Use each music and each audio format with each size as Ringtone , Alert , Alarm
Hey guys
I finally found : Use .m4a , .wma , .wav and .mp3 formats as Alarm,Alert,Ringtone ((without size and length limitations))
without changing the audio name for example Alert-01.wma or .....
first copy/paste your favorite(s) music(s) to \windows folder.
ok go [HKCU/ControlPanel/Sounds/
OEMNotifications << for Alerts
OEMAlarms << for Alarms
OEMRingtones] << for ringtones < as Alarms
in these 3 folders add "new value" and then :
Value Name: name.m4a or name.mp3 or name.wav or name.wma << name=name of your audio file that pasted in WINDOWS folder.
Value Data: enter a name for your audio that you want to be shown.
Value Type: String
then click "ok" to set it and go to Setting>ringtones+sounds and see
I tested with .aac , .amr , .m4a , .ac3 , .aiff , .flac , .mka , .mp2 and .ogg formats but just .m4a worked as SMS Alert.
I try it to add a small .mp4 video as ringtone but did not work.
I think if we can add more formats for Ringtones Category it will be possible to have video as ringtone.
(important) If you use a long music as sms alert for example you can not stop playing it so you must shutdown your phone.
I think with this registry tweak all applications related to Ringtones and RingtoneMaker and ... must be change.
