I have been searching unsuccessfully on the forum for an answer to this question, I am looking for a way to set tengo, or at least something better than Keyboard as the default input method so that when i soft reset it doesn't go back to keyboard. It's a little petty annoyance, just wondered if anyone could help me out. I have tried a suggestion by someone on this forum to install fitaly, change the input method in their settings, then uninstall but it doesn't work when i uninstall fitaly.
Any help would be much appreciated

Try this...
Using a registry editor, search within HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID for key IsSIPInputMethod. Then, for each one found look at the parent CLSID and you should see a string value (Default) set to the name of the input method (e.g Keyboard, Letter Recogniser, etc.) Once you find the CLSID entry for the input you want, make a note of it (e.g. {A070BE16-AD56-11d3-BC77-00C06C512035} is the Resco Keyboard one). Then find registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip and edit the string value DefaultIm to have the CLSID you require.
Thankyou!
dcs, you are a genius! Thankyou! Is there anything on this forum you can't help with?!
Many thanks - and theres loads
I've been looking a long time for this one
Now if you could only find a way to default get an SMS receipt report, I will die a happy man.

The only method I currently know is to use *0# followed by a space either in the subject line or if no subject, then at start of the text. That is specific to O2 I think, there are others for other operator/country.
To customise the HTC ActionScreen you can change the total number of icons, the size and shape of icons, their position, the image, and what is launched by pressing the icon.
All reg settings are contained within [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen]
Each Application reg file is numbered sequentially starting with App_0 going up to the total number of icons -1 (for 8 icons, App_0 to App_7).
Each icon can be shifted to where it is wanted by changing the xPos and yPos dwords, the top left of the screen is xPos 0 yPos 0, with yPos being the vertical distance, and xPos being the horizontal distance from the top right of the screen in pixels. This must be a positive value. The image files can be located anywhere, including the storage card.
Any image can be used, so long as it is converted into a *.brn, and matches the dimensions of the reg file.
The "name" registry entry is the text that appears to the right of the image, as of yet I know no way of changing its position other than moving the entire icon.
This works on other devices with the HTC ActionScreen.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen]
"Default"=""
"Check"=dword:00000001
"Row"=dword:00000007 [RIGHT]Number of rows[/RIGHT]
"Column"=dword:00000001 [RIGHT]Number of columns[/RIGHT]
"BaseImage"="" [RIGHT]Background image[/RIGHT]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\APP_0]
"Default"=""
"Name"="" [RIGHT]Text displayed next to the icon[/RIGHT]
"Path"="" [RIGHT]What's launched by pressing[/RIGHT]
"IconPressPath"="" [RIGHT]Image shown when pressed[/RIGHT]
"yPos"=dword:00000028 [RIGHT]Position relative to the top (in pixels)[/RIGHT]
"Width"=dword:000000f0 [RIGHT]Width of icon[/RIGHT]
"IconPath"="" [RIGHT]Basic icon[/RIGHT]
"Param"="" [RIGHT] Parameters of what is launched[/RIGHT]
"Type"=dword:00000000 [RIGHT]Type (no idea...)[/RIGHT]
"xPos"=dword:00000000 [RIGHT]Position relative to left of screen (pixels)[/RIGHT]
"IconSelectPath"="" [RIGHT]Image displayed when selected[/RIGHT]
"Height"=dword:00000028

thank for the nice guide..
will try to edit it..
ActionScreen from program files...
Put all the default .brns in \Program files\ActionScreen, import this, soft reset and then it should run from program files rather than windows (or whereever it is running from) to help reduce the size of the windows dir...
And... ActionScreen from storage card...
Put all the default .brns in \Storage Card\ActionScreen, import this, soft reset and then it should run from program files rather than windows (or whereever it is running from) to help reduce the size of the windows dir...
good work! btw, have you one of the latest action screen cab?
if yes, can you link it?
Thankx
I have 'v1.00'...
downloaded, thankx
No probs...
Now in green! Copy the .brns to whatever directory you have set as the default...

Still the same as you used to with WM5, no change in that. You can disable HTCHome in Today Settings pane. Don't forget to restart (soft reset).
Thanks sir...

I'm using one of Dutty's roms and I'm wondering what registry change would need to be made to make the ActionScreen button go away, and be replaced by Calendar.
I like the old way of doing things.

You may have a shortcut to "SoftKeys" under the System tab of the Settings. If not, look at this: http://www.dotfred.net/SoftkeyAppletEx.htm
It's simpler than using the registry and tends to work better...
I recently started to use SASHIMI heavily to customize my HD after a ROM flash. Congrats and credits to bengalih who did an awesome job.
One option i really missed in SASHIMI is to be able to specify specific values for custom registry export, so i decided to modify the script to my needs. From what i've read in various threads/forums other people wants to do the same, so i'll share it here for everyone who wants to try.
The mod allows additional parameters in REGEXPORT.INI:
key1=<yourkeypath1>
key2=<yourkeypath2>,<value1>,<value2>,<value3>, ... ,<valueN>
key3=<yourkeypath3>,*
key1 is the traditional way of exporting registry keys as its already implemented. It exports this key including all values/subkeys.
key2 specifies a key, plus the value names you want to export (value1-valueN). Value names are CASE SENSITIVE (!), if they dont match you end up with an empty key.
key3 specifies a key, plus ALL values, but WITHOUT subkeys.
WARNING: DO NOT mix filtered (like in key2, key3 examples) and unfiltered keys (key1) in the same section, as this will lead to missing values. If you need to do this, split them into separate sections.
examples from my own usage:
[Opera vibration]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Defaults,VibrationEnabled
[power+backlight settings]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts,BattSuspendTimeout,BattSuspendTimeoutSave,ACSuspendTimeout,ACSuspendTimeoutSave
key2=HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight,BatteryTimeout,BatteryTimeoutUnchecked,ACTimeoutUnchecked
If you want to give it a shot here are the downloads:
CustomRegistryExport.txt
SASHIMI.mscr
Nice mod, m'lady!
I hope bengalih will consider it for future SASHIMI versions
Great job!
Very Very helpfull!
Thanks a'lot!
well... just tried this (kept a backup of the original mscr). The only key it exported was key9. It took what felt like 5min to get past the "mysettings.............." line.
Code:
[MySettings]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKLM\Ident
key2=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock
key3=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Vmail\UserProvidedNumber1
key4=HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications
key5=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Devices
key6=HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts
key7=HKCU\Software\HTC\People\OwnerInfo
key8=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration
key9=HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila,Weather.CityList,Weather.ServerURLOverride,Locale,Weather_Focus,Weather.Fahrenheit,Weather.PostRunFirst
key10=HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1
key11=HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager
key12=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
And Generated this .reg file
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\]
"Weather.CityList"="37384,30914,31106,30824"
"Weather.ServerURLOverride"="http://weather.conflipper.com/htcweather/weathertranslate.php?ac=CONFLIPPER&locCode=%25ls&version= 1&device=innovation"
"Locale"="en-US"
"Weather_Focus"="United States"
"Weather.Fahrenheit"=dword:00000001
Notepad shows that all on 1 line w/ carriage returns as open squares.
Sashimi.mscr is in the BIN folder along w/ the .txt file. The weather entries are the main reason I need this mod. I think I did everything right, but looks like I missed something.

congrats ... you found a bug
Notepad showing only 1 line is normal, it cant handle lines terminated with LF only.
Is a fix in the works?

Hello ProfEngr,
I'am exporting a lot of keys with Dotfreds taskmanager.... with a simple text editor I place all of them in 1 Reg file..... and afterwards I import only 1 reg file with all the keys in it ...
Not really a solution, but a work-around
Greets from sudist
thanks, I'll try that in the interim.

I do that with normal SASHIMI too. I setup several registry settings in a text ini file, mysettings1 for registrations and program setup, mysettings2 for CHome setup like weather, used icons, launchers shortcuts etc, mysettings3 for device setup like email, ISP, bluetooth, advanced config etc and so on. So i can restore everything after a hard reset or flash, or only one set of registry at any time. From time to time i do a custom backup of the current registry.

I'll look after that sometime next week
any luck squashing that bug?
I'm currently testing the changes. Looking good so far. If they turn out ok i'll publish them tomorrow.
I tested the changes and they work great, however it takes ages to process a fair amount of regitems.
I wont publish this as its practically unusable. The reason is that i adapted the script to filter out unwanted regentries, which is slow by design. The better way would be to write a filter in C++ or .net and call it from Sashimi.
My advice is this: split the settings in two or more sections, and dont mix regkeys that need filtering with the ones that dont.
For your example this would look like this:
Code:
[MySettings1]
RegExportDirMode=Auto
key1=HKLM\Ident
key2=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock
key3=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Vmail\UserProvidedNumber1
key4=HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications
key5=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Devices
key6=HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts
key7=HKCU\Software\HTC\People\OwnerInfo
key8=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration
key10=HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1
key11=HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager
key12=HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
[MySettings2]
key9=HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila,Weather.CityList,Weather.ServerURLOverride,Locale,Weather_Focus,Weather.Fahrenheit,Weather.PostRunFirst
Or - and thats the way i prefer - split it into functional portions, one section per key. If you need to troubleshoot something its way easier to handle small bits instead of one megaload of settings.
I added a warning to the first post to make that clear.
Works, but wow - slow
I got it to work, creating two ouput files (allmyregistryneedsnotfiltered.REG & allmyregistryneedsyesfiltered.REG). Output was about 2500 lines and 250 lines respectively. The non-filtered 2500 lines ran in the blink of an eye. The filtered 250 lines took about 40 minutes. It seems to have worked perfectly, but wow, what a time investment.

You sure know the QuickMenu - Start manager by our fellow Nanling.
He created this QuickPad app too, but never did translation into english, which made it little non-usable by us, who can't read Chinese.
My first attempt was pretty lazy, editing res in exe, which wasn't very complete work and created some mis-formatting too.
Now there is standard MUI file in english!
what's good about QuickPad:
- multiple instances - will not open second file in the same window
- can open big big files
- can do go to column/line and showing position too
- unicode is called UTF-16 in it.
- can edit read-only files (PHM notepad would ignore save if read-only, quite nasty)
- no touchflo. In file open/save dialog, if you try to scroll by dragging in list, it would come with error (but not crash) (where is this option to disable TF in reg? I saw it once I think)
- if you hold down/up button it will start scrolling by pages (click by line, holding by pages) - can't really decide if this's good or bad
in attachment:
QuickPad.cab: classic EN installation
if your pda is not EN, rename mui code to your lang code:
QuickPad.exe.0409.mui to QuickPad.exe.xxxx.mui
MUI fix-ONLY for EN localized pda.cab: DON'T RUN THIS cab ON NON-ENGLISH PDA's (would reset it to english)
Some EN pdas would ignore mui files. This cab (just reg inside) should fix that.
the cab contains this reg:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI]
"SysLang"=dword:00000409
"Enable"=dword:00000001
QuickPad.zip: OEM - if you know what it is, you know what to do
===
one issue: in open/save dialog, there should be current folder visible in first combo. I can't set original props for this dialog with what I have.
I made translation by guess and try there still are some strings and one dialog I never saw and can't guess what it is. If someone from China, could go through them and tell me, I'll add it there. Or if someone would run into "xxxS1" by using QuickPad, let me know what was supposed to be shown there.
cheers
Thanks for sharing. I will give it a try on the weekend. Report later...
I've been looking for suitable notepad memo app for WM for forever... one that can truly replace the simple Memo app in old PalmOS which debutted some 15 years ago. One of its key features was that you could create dozens of hundreds of memos and then search through them for a simple string pattern and it would list all the hits and you then could tap on one and you would be put in that memo at exact the point of the string match. Also the searching was FAST, even for hundreds of memos on 16mhz CPU.
I still can't find anything in the WM world that matches this... I don't suppose the app does...
Hello all,
I am a programmer(I was a programmer 10 years ago and worked with ASP, PHP, SQL, FLASH, ActionScript, Javascript... Web Stuff) and am new to android programming.
I am wanting to build an app that will read an XML file(all the current setting values) from a network attached device(http://192.168.1.100/settings.xml) and then have an GUI for reading/displaying/modifying the values and sending the new values back to the device in realtime.
So if the xml file has values like:
<configuration-file>
<section name="section1">
<entry name="name1" value="value1"/>
<entry name="name2" value="value2"/>
</section>
<section name="section2">
<entry name="someothername" value="someothervalue"/>
</section>
</configuration-file>
I could load those values in to check boxes, radios, switched, whatever and when I value is changed I want to send the change to the device over HTTP(http://192.168.1.100/setvalue?name=name&value=value)
I'm looking to be pointed in the right direction. What would an app of this type be called and where can I find some examples that can get me going????
