Where is GPS control panel on Qtek 9100???? Funny, the help describes in detail where it should be, but it is not there
I tried this:
WM5 built in GPS control panel
For some reason this is not active in the settings of the JASJAR. To make it visible do the following:
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Soft-reset the qek 9100, but still can't find it in the Connections??
Help pls? :shock:
There is also a 'redirect' entry in that registry location.. remove that one, and it will apear in your settings menu
Hello
You have to
keep the Hide key but change the value to 0 and
delete the redirect value and
soft reset
then it appears

Thats why you are supposed to SET IT!
So once again....
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
1. Remove the REDIRECT
2. Add DWORD Hide and set Value to 0
3. Add DWORD Group and set Value to 2
4. Soft-Reset*
5. There ya go!
Its not that hard - just follow the directions and you will succeed!
*Be sure to do a correct Softreset! Either use a tool like Pocketplus to do a softreset or turn off the ppc by pushing the powerbutton very long untill you are asked if you really want to turn off the device.
That way the changes made to the registry are really saved to the ROM !

done, thanks.
Does this mean I can force my GPS receiver to communicate with designated ports on my Vario?
And if so how do I get it working properly?

Get yourself the GPS Menu in the settings and you'll get total control over the used COM PORTs used by the navigation software and the navigation hardware.
i tried that hack today, but i have the problem that my wizard "resets" the reg entries i changed to the default (only redirect)
I'm using the 2.18 german qtek rom, any ideas? I think a cab file would help.

You have to wait a while before register changes would be in the ROM, dont soft-reset immediately, or you could just turn your device off with the power button (hold it for 5 secs.) and turn it on again.
But then again.....this hack doesn't work on the latest Rom's
The latest Roms don't have the GPS control panel in it, I also tried it but didn't work.
i waited some time, then soft resets and it works! thanks! (2.18 Rom)

Well, I've tried to play with different hardware/software port settings; neither MioMap nor Google Maps see whichever port I set. Anyone found a good combination?

This thread is over three years old, so you might not get many responses. To answer your question, I use Program port 0 and Hardware port 6 in External GPS. The latteer port must match the port you assigned in the bluetooth settings. Make sure you disable the check mark that sets up a secure connection. This is also found in the bluetooth settings.
Hey, just found for another forum a fix for the WMP problem that other people and me was experiencing.
The problem occurs when you click the landscape mode in WMP it stays portrait.
The solution is that, you can try adding
HKLM\System\GDI\Rotation\LandscapeMode=1 to the registry.
Mine was originally set to 0 so i changed it to 1, and it worked.
Hope this helps
THANK YOU!!!

Hi Xplode,
This doesn't work. I had done what u said but it still reset to 0 after reset. I had even changed the setting for the "LandscapeFixed" value to 1 to try it out. After reset, the "LandscapeFixed" value remains as 1, but the "LandscapeMode" value reset to 0. Any idea?
Sorry for the noob question..

Hi all,
In the program tab, there are few items were locked, can not be removed. Anybody can enlight us how to unlock these items, I don't use that few items often, I'd rather change something using more often. Please refer to the screen captured. Thanks!
Second Part of my first post.... ahem.... only post..... ahem....
Hope this helps. I would backup the Registry/or those keys first incase you want to get them back if you delete them.

Also, can i just ask what battery icon is that? Does it work well on the D2?
Thanks
I just did this today.
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/
The Reg Folders correspond to the shortcut location. 0 = first (Home) and so on.
Change "IsReadOnly" from 1 to 0
Hi,
and nobody knows how to go further then 19 applications?
i would had appreciated that HTC implemented , a customizable
multi-pages/tabs programs list, sliding from page 1 to 2 etc with a finger gesture.
19 is not enough for me and pi8 installation created at least 8 entries(task, calendar...) in the "standard" programs list , making me scrolling uselessly down
thanks
regards

THanks!
IDEAS is the program by Singapore Singtel's internet program in the SIM's card. Stupid program.
Sorry to be off topic but I did not understand:
its the _FInixNOver(BatteryIconsOnly) cab.`
it works oke, but check this:
restart you phone put in your code-- look at the size of the pads of the numbers.
install the cab. restart then look again
a] what code and what pads of the numbers.
I installed the cab then restarted ...not there
reinstalled [it deleted previous] restarted ...still not there.
Again many thanks
Haha.. Singtel sells HTC? I thought only starhub has the contract to sell it.... I bought mine from starhub

Thanks Elmalote
What a great forum!
Hi Guys,
That's a great solution to ged rid of the useless tabs. Thanks a lot!
Is there a chance to put Folders/Directories in the Start Menu? This would be even better.
Before on my Kaiser I had MortButtons and for example a tab for Internet applications, one for games, one for tools, etc.
I miss this...

JTGBDR

Does Clicking on the Start button pull up the programs? That would be the programs tab. If you are looking for the programs tab on the bottom of TF3D well it is not there. You can do a reg edit to enable it down in the tabs but it does nothing. You cannot add, edit, or launch an app from it. Sorry.
In ProgramLauncher entry, you don't forget to add a dword totalItemCount and put the max value you want (for example 30 in decimal, for 30 icons on ProgramLauncher).
If you create 31 folders in the registry,the icon appears but you can't add the program, you need to increase the totalItemCount , 35 for example.

Hey,
can anyone advise me on how to disable automatic screen lock when powered up from standby?
Thanks!
Just want to know the same.
It is very annoing.
Is this not possible?
Is it a part of Sense - does the screen lock dissapear when Sense is disabled?

There is no solution for this.
Is "HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0" not doing it??
Is the lock a part of SENSE?
Speaking personally (and unless I am missing the spectacularly obvious - which is always a possibility) this key doesn't even exist in the registry of my device.
I also have a sneaking suspicion that it may stop the slider as well and I'm happy to keep that. I just don't want to have to enter my damn password evety time...
I dont use S2US and I dont have this key in my registry of my HD2. Any other registry hack?
The one from tboy2000 works for Windows default screen lock. Thank you!

Anyone know where it is ?
The backlight does not go as low in auto as you can set it in manual....where are the auto limits in the registry ?
Thanks in advance...

Try Lumos, works great for me and....its free
tonarm said:

there are different values, but I think none of them is the right one. There is a min max value for the backlight, but I think it changes only the values in manual setting of the backlight.
Above suggested Lumos is probably the only way.
