Cleartype in landscape - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Hi,
I tried to enable cleartype in landscape changing the HKLM\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\OffOnRotation registry value to 0.
After a soft reset it works, it keeps cleartype enabled also in landscape mode...but when I soft reset again it rollbacks my setting to 1, disabling it in landscape.
This happened also on BlueAngel...I think it's a common behavior of HTC devices, because on my Motorola MPx I changed such value one time and it always worked across many soft resets...
Any idea?
Thanks!

1) wrong forum, this is tytn upgrading and your post is not related to upgrading.
2) search before posting, this has already been asked:

cheers!

Dear nicolochi,
The registry modification worked well on my HTC Blackstone. After a few power off and on, cleartype is still activated both in portrait and landscape.

Issues with text in landscape mode

OK I made a thread for this yesterday in the general Raph area but it seems to have gone away. If I missed it I apologize and am not trying to spam.
My problem is this. Lets say for example Im trying to edit or put in a new contact in landscape mode. You know how some of the boxes have drop down menus with different options? Well, I can get the drop down to activate but nothing shows up. Also when I try and type in any field the curser moves, but I cant see my typing. After Im done if I click into another field it then shows up.
I have the same issue with Gmail and drop down boxes...nothing shows up *in landscape mode only*
Any ideas?
i had this problem when i enabled cleartype in landscape. try disabling that if you have and see if that helps.
Based on all the detail I read, DO NOT ENABLE Cleartype on the TP. You are experiencing a bug re: landscape mode. Inall the forums that I have read they said it will foul up landscape.
Hello,
Is cleartype the actual problem? I had this enabled, ran into the problem... disabled it and I still have the problem.
Hard reset?

Did you also make sure cleartype was not enabled in Internet Explorer as that can cause problems in certain programs as well?
Hello,
I do not believe it is enabled in IE.. where would it be. I never use IE so I didnt change any settings in that or anything.
Thanks for your help!
Try making these reg edits to make your font size normal:
HKLM\System\GDI\SYSFNT\Ht (Change from 1000 to 900)(Dont go below)
HKLM\System\GWE\Menu\Barfnt\Ht (Change from 1000 to 800)(Dont go below 800)
HKLM\System\GWE\Menu\Popfnt\Ht (Change from 1000 to 800 or 700)
HKLM\System\GWE Delete the string "WidgSz"=dword:1"

help? touch pro input (phone keypad and compact qwerty) only symbols!

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere (I've looked everywhere I can think of), but I seem to have somehow set the default for both input options to symbols only. I'm running a Verion TP with a few of the tweaks and mods I found. There's an option for "turn on one touch symbol entry" but even with that not selected, it seems to be doing exactly that? Anyone know a registry edit that would help? thanks in advance!
one of your tweaks is causing it.
i'm not sure of the tweak as i have not done it... this comes from reading the forums.
i think it has to do with t9 or something. it would be best if you tested your tweaks one at a time so you know what they are doing.
thanks, i've been trying to back them out one at a time (i only had 2 or 3). I didn't notice it until it was too late, after I'd done a couple in a row. that's why i was hoping someone might know what particular registry entry i can adjust.
Edit: I've backed them all out now and soft reset, still nothing. I'm worried only a hard reset is going to help...
Edit 2: Ok, i just went ahead and hard reset. Thanks anyway
Any idea what this was? I'm having the same issue!
I'm relatively certain you disabled xt9 using some program or another. If you enable it, the you should get the functionality back.

This is correct. For some reason this happens after going to the classic word correction and disableing eT9. A temp fix for this is to modify the following registry keys; I say temp, because it might happen again.
Temporarly fixed symbol lock on keyboard:
1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000
2. [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9]
XT9SupportMSSip value="0"
Thanks Jeff!
I had the same issue and your fix worked.
I only had the change the value for [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000
Mine was set to 00000001
The value for [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9] XT9SupportMSSip was already "0"

S740 Keypad Backlight

My new HTC S740 is excellent except for one thing - the keypad backlight goes out after only 15 seconds. Very irritating in the dark.
I've looked for kb_light_timeout in hklm/software/htc/keypad but this does not exist.
I've found keylight timeout and qkeyledtimeout in hkcu/control panel/backlight which looks like the right place but altering values and rebooting makes no difference.
I've also looked in hklm/drivers/builtin/keylight and keypad.
I feel I'm very close. Can anyone help?
Yes Its most annoying as well as fact that only numbers or keys round circular button light seperately. Look forward to someone cracking it. Otherwise an excellent phone.
I agree, this is very annoying.
So theres no fix for this issue? To bad no ACT for this phone. An awesome phone, just wm standard gets so little love it seems.
I did some research today and he're the results:
1. This is far of to be a new issue. First complaints about the keyboard backlight timeout you can find under Qtek models...
2. Apparently, they were just few (2-3?) HTC models supporting a registry entry included in WM hkcu/control panel/backlight/QKeyLedTimeout - Rose definitely doesn't
3. The issue could be a case of WM 6.1 limitation - Rose has in fact three keyboard backlight arrays with separate light managements (soft keys, numeric, QWERTY - try to use them simultaneusly and you will see - their timing is independent on each other) and I've found some extra HTC registry entries concerning power management confirming a bit non-standard settings. Unluckily, nothing useful there for the kb backlights.
Sorry, based on my experiments, I can advice you only one very strange way how to overcome it for now: Limit the display timeout to the same 10 seconds as the keyboard has. At least, first press of any key will become inactive and just light-up both display and keyboard. Until display works, all keys are still active even the keybord backlight is off.
Nevertheless, any opposite finding will be appreciated...
Thank you for your investigation
I have a new s743 and this is the exact problem I came searching for fix for!
Too bad - it really is a sweet phone.
-John
To me this is a winmo thing. I don't understand why this option isn't included from the factory. It is a plain "NO BRAINER"! It's been this way on all my previous devices whether pro or standard. The diff being the pro os has wonderful tweaks and various cabs one can install to set the time out. What we need is to get some tweaking guru to set up something like ACT for standard. Problem is so little love for the standard os. The screens are to small anyway for my taste. I'll just stick to pro, the tweaks are better.
Well, i set the display timeout on my device to 5 seconds. Backlight of the qwerty and numeric keypads went off after 5 seconds.
The softkeys remained lit till 10 seconds was up.

[Q] Touch Screen Buttons not functioning during an Active Call

Windows Mobile Version: 6.5
Manila Version: 2.5.20181527.0
ROM Version: 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
Hi, bought my HD 2 a week ago and every time I am in an active call the touch screen buttons don't seem to function. Specifically, the 'end call' touch screen button, menu buttons etc. The hardware buttons work fine, which is why I end the call using the end call hardware button.
Outside of an active call, the touch screen buttons work fine. Just seems to be during an active call.
Was wondering if there's any help on this. Seems to be like there's not a fault, but more like a restriction or something stopping the touch screen buttons from being able to function when in an active call. However, I'm a new HD 2 user so I am slightly inexperienced as to what to do.
Further info can be given if needed. Thanks and any help is appreciated
I have exactly the same problem after I installed ROM 3,14. After some tests, I found out, that the screen buttons are working if you hold and swipe carefully, but they are very unresponsive. I think there should be a registry tweak available for this - I tried to find hints in the XDA forums without any luck. Anyone could help?
I have the same problem with all of the 3.14 based roms too.Is there any help to solve this massive problem?

I think I just found the solution - at least it worked for me...
Have you done the registry tweak #44 from the registry tweak thread? If yes, revert back, and voila, problem solved. I copy here for reference:
"44. Prevent Accidental Link Activation When Scrolling
Do you scroll and find you accidentally click on something? This tweak is for you. Note: Can cause problems for some so remember original value in case to revert back. Note: for some, users cannot tap on screen buttons during a call. Revert to original reg entry if this is the case.
HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/Minimumtaptime
Change from 0 to 30"

EMUI 10 Desktop mode mouse speed

Hello there,
I have a little problem since I have updated my mate 20 pro to EMUI 10 : In desktop mode, the mouse is simply not utilisable. Even the slightest move make the cursor go in every directions possible at near light speed. Same with a touchpad. But if I only have a screen plugged and I'm in phone mode, the cursor move like intended. Only in desktop mode show crasy moves. Someone has an idea ? Desktop mode is usefull for me but only with a keyboard and mouse plugged in...
Thanks !
I'm having the same issue. In EMUI Desktop mode, mouse is all over the place and not usable at all.
Did you find a way to fix it ?
cheers

Yes. Sadly I had to do a factory reset. Problem gone since

yes this solved a lot of my problems including the mouse speed.
Nevermind, problem just appeared again, didn't do anything particular though
EDIT : Changed "smallest width" in developper options and backed it to 360 dp solved the problem. Even if it's temporary, it's still better than a hard reset
un-tick the "switch access" in your phone. Works well for my p30 pro.
resolution problem
change ur resolution to 1080p problem will be gone
Resolution
I change the resolution on phone settings and was ok. Thank You
For me, changing the resolution solves the problem temporarily. The problem can randomly reappear even when using the desktop mode. That's really annoying. Another problem that I have is that browsing applications like Brave and Chrome stop rendering webpages when the phone screen goes off. When the screen turns back on, the rendering completes. Can anyone test and let me know if there's a solution? EMUI 10.1 latest
I'm using EMUI 11 but should be same.
Settings -> Accessibility Features -> Accessibility -> Large Mouse Pointer
After that works fine.

For me un-ticking "switch access" worked just like that. Thanks a lot, beh007.
