[Q] [HD2O] few questions - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
It is my first post, so I'd like to say hello .
Due to low count of posts I cannot ask in oryginal ROM thread and I hope here also get help:
1. is it possible to disable dial tones? sounds during dialing makes me agry
2. how can I customize disable/enable links like stocks or twitter?
3. how to change taskmanager to arkswitch in easiest way?
4. can I change messaging client to any with "mark all as read" option?
After few days using I'm very impressed, it is the fastest ROM I've tried. So, I want to make it more usable and adapt it to my needs.
regards
kabo

First of all, congratulations to your first post.
1. start -> settings -> personal -> phone -> keypad
2. at home screen -> menu -> manage tabs -> disable or change order
3. ./.
4. ./.
translated from German ROM, not sure English expression is correct.

Hi,
thanks for reply, but unfortunately in HDO ROM these settings are hidden. Probably I have to use some tricks with registry editor to discover them .
So, my questions are still open .
regards
kabo

hmm
4. I found cab named Zenyee Disable HTC Messaging in Windows folder, it enable e-mail client in messaging but it disable massaging at all (i couldn't receive or send any SMS), so it doesn't help
mods: could you move my topic to HD2O ROM thread?
maybe there, someone especially HD2Owner can help me?
regards. kabo

I found solution for point 2.
2. settings->personalize-> home screen tabs (in "settings->all settings" menu this option is not available )
I will be grateful if someone can help in other points.
regards
kabo

OK, I can manage with point 1, point 3 is not very important, so now my last question is:
how can I change messaging client to have anyone with "mark all as read" option in all messages view?
regards
kabo

"Safe" Inbox Extender

You may already be familiar with the InboxExtender install as it is one of the examples in the WM6 SDK install. This dll is very handy in that it lets you mark an entire folder as read by adding a "Mark All as Read" menu option.
Unfortunately... there is also a very dangerous menu option that is located just a fraction of an inch away. It is labeled "Delete All" and if you accidentally click it, it will without any warning, delete the entire contents of the current MAPI folder.
I have added some code to this dll that places a safety mechanism around the delete functionality. It will simply ask you for verification of your actions before continuing. A simple fix indeed, but makes the dll actually usable.
I have also modified the dll to "unregister" the previous dll (if you had Q Inbox Extender installed). This should have no effect if you had no previous installation.
Instructions:
1.) Copy SafeInboxExtender.cab to your device
2.) Navigate to the cab on your device and click it
3.) Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the install
4.) SOFT RESET!
5.) The "Delete All" function should now be safe!
Please let me know how it works for you.
seems to be very handy. will try it later. thanks...
awesome. Thanks for your work.
that's really great, i could use that before.
thank you very much
this type of menu editing, could you do the same thing to the calendar menu to add an option or edit a current option?
Nice, Great & Good Job
Thanks Ken Pendlebury Great Job!!!
Excellent, just started using this, of course only because it took me almost an hour of searching to find. We really need a thread of site devoted to links to all the various programs that have been developed here on xda-dev.
REQ: anybody thinks it would be a great idea if someone can develop a menu extension just like this for the EXIT or Close of a program - for those many programs that force you to use the X/OK button which is really a pain when trying to use one handed.
Is there anyway to have your messages marked as read via a program execution or maybe a script? Will this program do this?
This is awesome! What a great idea! I've been using it for a few weeks, and definitely saved myself the annoyance of having to restore all of my text messages after accidentally deleting them!
Safe Inbox Extender Much Appreciated!
Absolutely [email protected]#ing awesome! I have been looking for this for a long time. I have accidentally deleted all of my emails more than once. Thanks.

Good job, but is it possible to add it in manila menu?

Is there any posibility of marking the messages one at a time. Sometimes it is necessary to delete just some of the messages, I don't see any option to mark individual messages

couple of ideas:
1- to post a pic-- put the url here but with a space somewhere; people will figure it out.
2- what program?
3- you have turned the phone off/on?
4- try to reinstall the program and then uninstall...
we'll figure it out...

2. I uninstalled many programs and I don't remember which program was here
3. Yes. I have
4. I don't know which program
to just remove the quicklink, open file explorer, navigate to device/ windows/ start menu. long press on the offending icon, press delete.
I can't see this empty icon in windows/start menu/programs
I installed SKTools and this application found 2 bad shortcuts
\windows\AUXPGA_App.Ink
\windows\Equalizer_App.Ink
both are linked to target: \windows\AudioCapture.exe
I tried to delete both bad shortcuts by SKTools but unsuccessfully
those shortcuts will not be in the start menu, look at the other forum thread we were communicating through.
did by chance on your 9 quick links have an audio recorder of some type there??????
give me you answer in the other forum if you would please

Both files are placed at Windows folder.
Now my question is how to delete these files? Because files placed at Windows/ cannot be deleted (options like Delete/Rename etc. are inactive (grey))
have you tried a registry editor to delete them? (e.g. total commander?) if not, try that (allows different things than file explorer.)
I have tried to use Total Commander and it says the files cannot be deleted
It seems that only solution is hard reset and I can't do this because all things and settings will be deleted and it cause more problems than one inactive link in quick menu... I hope I find a better solution in the future.
Anyway thanks for your effort to helping me with this issue.

I solved this problem!
I installed Co0kie's home Tab + CHTeditor.
In CHTeditor: Menu --> Remove dead quicklinks

[Q] Coloros ROM GT-I9300. Chinese charcter removal

I have the above ROM installed on GT-I9300. However the chinese characters etc are a pain. I have language set to English but the characters are still there.
I have been looking through the files and unable to find what I have read previously on internet and various other searches.
I am unable to post in thread regarding ROM as not enough posts, so can anyone help me or point me in the general direction.
Thanks in advance
I'm not entirely sure of the ColorOS ROM, but since it's based off AOSP as most ROMS are, I'd reckon it has the same settings menu (correct me if I'm wrong)
Go to Settings > Language & Input > Android Keyboard / your keyboard (settings icon) > Input Languages >
Select your preferred language (in your case, you said English)
Hope this helped

Hi Gino.mee,
I had already done that but there was still Chinese characters on aps, in menus, welcome screen etc. The ROM was actually password locked which to be honest I didn't see much point in doing that unless there's something we ain't meant to see. Regardless the only thing in my opinion that lets it down is the Chinese in menus etc. I stumbled accross this tool by pure chance and it has been of great help. I can now decompile and either remove the strings etc or just replace with English by using Google translate.
To be honest I don't see the point in anyone uploading a ROM for people to use share etc when the system files and boot image have been locked by password. More so when the essence of freedom and choice are retricted which is what we all want in one way or another or we wouldn't be here. Anyway thanks for your reply and taking time to read my post. No doubt I shall likely encounter more issues but sod it, only way to learn about Android is to tackle it.
Cheers,
Gaz

How to delete multiple Call Log from History OR Multiple Messages from SMS

HI All
Pls forgive if this is a duplicate. I did search in the forums here before asking
Q1) How do I delete "multiple" entries from Call History ?
RIght now, ColorOS 5 allows me to delete only 1 entry per time. I dont see any option to "select all"
Q2) How do I delete "multiple" entries from SMS ?
RIght now, ColorOS 5 allows me to delete only 1 entry per time. I dont see any option to "select all"
Thanks in advance.
Hey I think this should work
1) open phone app > edit > clear
2) open messages app, similar options

No option to make Default Apps

Hello Forum,
Usually when you tap a link or document for the first time on a new device, you are presented with an list giving you the option to make one of the apps on the device the default app to open the link or document from now on.
In my case I just get a generic Android system error with a "report" button.
I solved the opening a link problem by using the option in Firefox to make it the default app.
However, for documents and anything else that may come my way, will crash instead of getting the familiar menu option mentioned above.
Any ideas, please?
Possibly an option that is turned on or off in system?
This is a stock ROM direct from Xiaomi. MIUI 10.1 Stable.
Thanks in advance.
I am using Solid Explorer file manager, there's such menu like you mentioned.
