Everytime i press the calendar softkey it defaults to day view, i then have to change it to month view. Checking the calendar later the view will revert to day view. I have tried changing my outlook view on my pc to month view (which is what i have anyway) but this has no affect.
Is there a reg tweak for this?

yes, there is. I use Agenda Fusion, the app for the week view is \Program Files\Agenda Fusion\FusionViewWeek.exe. This has to go in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open. Don't remember if I had to do a soft reset after changing the value.
:arrow: Be advised: This only works with Agenda Fusion; for other software, use the appropriate path and file name.[/b]

thanks for your help but i thing you have misunderstood my request, i would prefer to continue using the standard calendar that comes pre-installed on the device rather than use a third party app. I just want it to default to month view when i open it.[/quote]
Yes, I understood you. I don't know how the internal calendard handles week and different views; if it's with a different .exe, you can use this solution. Otherwise, try switching to a different view and look at changed settings in the registry.

that sounds like a good idea, where in the registry would you recommend i look? (i can make changes to the registry but i just dont know where everything is if you know what i mean)
Make a shortcut to:
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar -vm

Good tip vijay
If you want to map left softkey to this link - then place link in \windows say 'Calendar Month.lnk'
and then edit registry
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112\
'open' value name = ''\windows\calendar month.lnk''
and soft reset
Calendar month view cab
Always have month view appear when you press calendar softkey
I put together a cab that will automatically do this for you.
Install and soft reset
also included are day view or agenda view versions - unzip to find the cab
So...
Does that mean there is NOT a reg tweak we can implement? I would rather the calendar ALWAYS open to month view no matter how I load the calendar.
Thanx.

Yes there is a reg tweak and it is detailed above - the cab does the reg tweak and installs a lnk file so it always opens on month view on softkey use but not on today calendar tapping. Is that what you wanted as well?
Yes.
In fact, I'm not at all interested in the softkey approach. I am just wanting a reg tweak that will force the calendar (no matter how I get to it) to default to the month view.
Thanx.
dma97701: There's no global override in the registry.
First, understand the idea: to launch the calendar, the OS runs PocketOutlook, with a command line "calendar", thus
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar
To force this to launch in month view, you need to launch
Code:
poutlook.exe calendar -vm
Now, you need to edit this wherever you want to launch the calendar from - whether that's a today screen launcher, start menu, soft key, hardware key, whatever. There's no global override in the registry.
So, to do this for the start menu, find your "Calendar.lnk" file and edit the properties of the shortcut, using a good fileexplorer like GSFinder.
To do this for the softkeys, do the above anyway, and then point the registry key
Code:
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112\
to the above Calendar.lnk.
If you JUST want the softkey method, use Mark's enclosed cab file, which will do the whole thing for you if you're uncomfortable with editing the registry.

Odd!!
I have the opposite problem! When I press the Calendar softkey it defaults to Month view - I actually want it to default to Agenda. If I tap the Today screen directly it stays in whatever view I last had Calendar in. Maybe the firmware affects how the softkey functions? I'm using the latest T-Mobile UK ROM.
Any ideas how I can set the softkey to open in Agenda view?
Cheers,
Tim
poutlook.exe calendar -va
poutlook.exe calendar [-vx] [-dx] [-new]
Parameters
-vx
Specifies the view to display. x can be a = agenda view, d = day view, w = week view, m = month view, y = year view, and l = lunar view (on builds that support lunar calendars).
-dx
Specifies the date to view. x can be either a date, or an offset in days. The date format is yyyymmdd. For example, -d20050102 represents 01/02/2005. The offset format is [-]x, where x ranges from -999 to 999. For example, -d-3 represents three days ago, and -d5 represents five days from now.
-new
Opens an edit card for a new Appointment or a new Meeting Request.

Shortcut does nothing??
Thanks for the reply. If I create a shortcut to "\Windows\poutlook.exe calendar -vm" or even just "\Windows\poutlook.exe calendar" it doesn't do anything at all. If I just create a shortcut to "poutlook.exe" it does nothing, but at least explorer recognises it as a shortcut (which it doesn't if I have any parameters after the exe at all).
I'm using Total Commander to edit the shortcut and have tried putting it in quote marks, putting the Windows folder in the path, leaving out "calendar", putting it in, adding a dash (poutlook.exe -calendar) and nothing's working! What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again,
Tim
In GSFinder it looks like this:
Code:
"poutlook" calendar -va
opening it directly in Notepad, your .lnk should look like this:
Code:
27#"poutlook.exe" calendar -va

On mine if I start the calendar with either the soft key or the hard key
and it defaults to whatever view is set in the menu.
Startup calendar, in the bottom right of the screen click on MENU/VIEW
and choose the view you want ie: Month,Agenda etc.
On mine it sticks to that view even after a reset.
Dave...
Working!
Brilliant, thanks everyone. The problem was that I hadn't put quote marks around the exe. Changed the shortcut and set the registry key and it works perfectly! Interestingly, the softkey was preset to use something called "HTCCalendar.exe" in \Windows - and that's what always defaults to the Month view.
Cheers,
Tim
thanks for all your help guys, thats exactly what i wanted.
excellant hack!! I had been wondering if there was a way to do that. The day view is useless to me. Month view is where the money's at. 8)

I made it as simple as possible to change your prefered Contact Manager, my friend uses iContact, which seems quite popular here. As downloaded, the script is setup for iContact, but to change it all you have to do is edit the first 2 lines with a text editor.
Run the script and your Softkeys, and Links, all call up iContact, run again and it switches back to Office (Outlook) Mobile!
Does not support 3rd party software, such as SPB Mobile Shell, for SPB Mobile Shell support see this thread.
MortScript is requied, download it here.
I hope you find this useful!
To use:
1. Download and unpack the ZIP file.
2. Edit the first 2 lines in the MSCR file, notepad works fine for this.
set AltContactsName, "iContact"
set AltContactsPath, """\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"""
3. Copy to your device, and make a shortcut.
4. Click the shortcut and answer the "Yes or No" question.
5. Repeat step 4 to swap between the two contact managers!
Once again Great Scripting..
I installed mortscript, ran it, and it said iContact was my default, I whent back to my Today screen, pressed contacts, and it said it wasnt digitally signed, or something of the sort. So, now when I revert back, and try to change again, it wont even give me that message, it just automatically goes to Office Contact manager.
Could anyone please help me? I'm kinda new to all this..
---
Nevermind, I'm and idiot. I put the iContact folder in the device root. heh.
Also, would it be possible to change the Calendar if you change:
"set AltContactsName, "iContact"
set AltContactsPath, """\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"""
to
set AltCalendarName, "PROGRAM"
set AltCalendarPath, """\Program Files\PROGRAM\PROGRAM.exe"""

Glad you figured out the iContact, was going to suggest checking your path, as far as calendar check the calendar thread and don't forget to double check your paths.
for those that are not working do a soft reset, this should be included in instructions
as the previous one. wonderful, thank you very much.
alterantively, another way to set icontact or any other contact program without any scripting is to just go and edit this registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
and edit key #1 to the path of your program. pm contacts edits this value to make their program the default. So for iContact, do the same thing. Make sure you back it up in case you would like to go back, but it's not that difficult tho.
edit: sorry didn't know this was a toggle manager where you siwtch between default and icontacts. in either case, the registry key may be good to know, lol

how can i get Softkeys.cab?
change contact application in diamond
How can I change the contact application on the Diamond screen ("All contcacts") to use iContact?
The script that was mentioned does not change the touchflo contacts soft button.
Is there a way to make this work for instance I'm sending an e-mail and click on add new recipient, then icontact will pop up instead of MS contacts? Even after a soft reboot, the mortscript did not seem to do this. Thanks!

Hi guys. Anyone get this working on the Omnia? I've been playing around trying to get iContact to work, with no luck.
What I'd really like to do is get the Samsung Phonebook app to be used everywhere, i.e. when create new message/email etc. From messaging, when you add a recipient it brings up the normal contacts screen - cant seem to change this.

Did anyone sort this prob. Open new email or sms message, click on the 'to' field and select contacts to open the contact manager of your choice rather than the awkqard default one ?

Great job, but do tell if the video call button would come back or not if I uninstall the Cab file.
If not how can we bring it back if and when I want to
This freeware program is a great alternative. Includes a reset to default command.

You would have to find out a way to edit the DLL from post #4.
Unlike the softkeys from the homescreen the softkey on the dialer work totally different.
I didn't realise we were talking about the dialer when I posted above!
You can change the Left Softkey to the default contacts application (iContact BE on my phone) by setting the following registry DWORD to 1:
HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\LSKContact
Cab file attached (my first ever)
Also, you can drop this file in your Windows dir. Just overwrite the original with Total Commander or Resco.

It just sets that one registry value, changing the left soft key of the dialer to "Contacts".
This launches the default contacts application - normally pOutlook but it should be iContact if you have installed it.
I installed the new iContact 0.9 and now it is default contact manager

Hi guys!
I tried to change my right softkey from "Menu" to "BT Toggle" (a bluetooth switching program I've already installed) using Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 but it didn't work on my HD2.
When I restart the HD2, the key is changed to "BT Toggle" but after entering the PIN and after HTC sense started the key is named "Menu" again.
I looked into the registry but all is right there, the changes were saved. But why is the new softkey name only displayed before starting HTC sense and not after?
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Oliver
Home RSK
I wouldn't mess with the right soft key of sense.
Only the left.
How would you edit the quick tabs?
If you aren't using sense, only the WM interface, you can edit those SK's.
Did you get BT Toggle to work?
It wouldn't for me.

My english isn't that good...
Using this post by vovichek62 as a guide I used the following process to change the right soft key:
Download LuaDec from here and extract
Copy \Windows\07c67730_manila from device to luadec folder (and somewhere else as a backup).
Open a command prompt there
Run
Code:
luadec 07c67730_manila > 07c67730_manila.lua
Open 07c67730_manila.lua in an editor like notepad
You need to change two functions. The fuction above "SetSoftKey = l_0_0" sets the text for the soft buttons. This is my modified line:
Code:
_application:SetRightSoftkey(Softkey(Locale:GetString("IDS_CONTACTS"), OnMenuPressed))
I think it was originally set to IDS_MENU. That "OnMenuPressed" is the function called when you press it.
So now you need to change that function - The function above "OnMenuPressed = l_0_0". On mine this is now:
Code:
l_0_0 = function()
_application.Navigation:Navigate(URL("Manila://people/browserlayer/peopleAll.page"), false)
end
Now, back in the command prompt run:
Code:
luac -o 07c67730_manila 07c67730_manila.lua
and copy 07c67730_manila back to your device.
If you were up for it you could probably copy some of the left soft key code to allow changing the right soft key in the registry.
Xaddict is right, once you do this you can no longer tweak your home buttons. If I need to change one I go back in to the registry and find:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\0\IsSet (where 0 is the button number) and change the value to 0. If you then restart manila (or your device) you can change that button. It will still show the old text and icon until you do. I also made a simple .reg which clears all the buttons, attached. For me it was worth this hassle as I could remove the People tab.
Tx fot BT Toggle
Nice one.
Thanks very much : )

Hi All,
I have written this little tutorial by piecing togethor bits of info from other forums and threads. Some of you will probably know this already but this is for those who are struggling:
To get the g sensor rotating any application that doesnt do so already you will need to edit the registry on your device.
Using your preferred registry editor navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Here you must create a new string value. The name of your string is whatever you want it to be. The value of your string would be the path to the exe of the program you wish to rotate.
Once this is done you must then navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Here you must again create a new string value.
The name again is whatever you want it to be... the value would be the class name of the application you are attempting to rotate.
For example.... to get excel rotating with the G sensor:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Create new string value... i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
windows\pxl.exe
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Create new string value... again i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
BOOKWIN
Create second new string value... i named it Excel Mobile2. Value is:
PXLMainWnd
Exit your registry editor and soft reset the device. Job done. Excel will now rotate within the open file browser (PXLMainWnd) and also within any open workbook (BOOKWIN)
For any particular app you should be able to figure out what the full path is to your exe but to get class names use dotfreds task manager:
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Once the task manager is installed.... start your app... then start the task manger... go to applications tab and long press on your app which will be listed if it is still running... select details. Go to the windows tab... this screen will list all of the classes currently accessed by your app. Ususally the ones to add into the whitelist will be the ones that are preceded by the app name but not always.
To get you guys started here are the settings for word:
windows\pword.exe
and you need to add two classes to the white list:
WordPad
Pocket Word
Remember that class names are case sensitive.

thank you, and take your time =) btw, I just wanna be clear that I didn't mean the messaging tab on the home/sense screen, I meant the default win6.5 screen.
Thanks for this post, I am trying to find the details for a new app called DynaInk. I've followed your instructions and I am about to see if it worked?
*** Drum Roll ***
It worked, I used #NETCF_AGL_BASE_
Thank You
I applied this trick for Notepad which is a simple text editor that doesn't even require installation:
http://www.shamasis.net/projects/notepad-mobile/
After installing Dotfred's Task manager it showed me several string values for Notepad.exe and one of them was same as Nighthawk's DynaInk: #NETCF_AGL_BASE_ so I added it for my Notepad.exe.
Now it rotates with G-sensor
Thank you, Audio Oblivion for this guide!
p.s. What kind of damage to the device could possibly be done by adding those strings with those values? One could delete them if there's no result ?!?
Great post, works very well except for 1 program.
Perhaps you can help me out with the class name of TomeRaider3.
Program is TomeRaider3AU.exe, but for the Whitelist entry I always get different ClassNames when I start it as just like: "Afx:83ab6eaa:0, next time I get Afx:d54d7832:0, and so on.
Can anyone please help me out with this ?
many thanx in advance
Edit: Found the solution. I have added a ModuleName Wikipedia with Value "\Programme\TomeRaider3\Wikipedia.tr3 and a Whitelist entry for Wikipedia called "Dialog", for the Whitelist entry of TomeRaider I also used "Dialog", now it works very well.

I launched the default wnimo messaging screen and saw a process called tmail.exe appear.
search for tmail.exe on you device and use its full path as the module name. its probably windows\tmail.exe
for class entry in whitelist try: Dialog
If thats not it then start messaging, lauch dotfreds task manager, long key press on tmail.exe... click on windows and try every class you see!
I have now found that gyrator works quite well if you want EVERY screen on your device to rotate with the acceleromter... however... even though it is set to rotate everything... not all windows work. I still had to add in certain aspects of SPB shell to the whitelist for instance. Also... HTC Sense homescreen doesnt like being rotated.

p.s. What kind of damage to the device could possibly be done by adding those strings with those values? One could delete them if there's no result ?!?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You wont damage your device if you follow my instructions carefully. The values you are changing are safe to add, delete and edit at any time (although dont touch what is already in the registry before you started adding to it). The discalimer is there in case someone messes up their registry by doing something incorrectly!
What about the programs that have the same Class name eg. "Dialog".
As i noticed it's enough to add process name to ModuleName or Class Name to WhiteList. No need to put both.
Better to use ModuleName if you have several applications that both have eg "Dialog" but one of them you do not want to rotate.
Eg. Nimbuzz - Dialog, HTC phone app - also Dialog. I do not want to rotate Phone So for me works only the ModuleName for the Nimbuzz.
For other apss I only include data to whitelist In fact there is two lists - by process name and by Window class...
Is there a similar way to enable the "Pinch to Zoom" feature for programs by just adding the programm to some registry entries?
TomTom
This is great
added TT7 = MunichWinClass to the white list.. now I can use TomTom in landscape
Thank you for this information.
I've done 3 programs;
Resco Explorer 2008
ModuleName
\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe
WhiteList
RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS
and
Palm Digital Media eReader for windows mobile
ModuleName
\Program Files\Peanut Press\eReader.exe
WhiteList
PalmDigitalMediaWin
IME
and
1-Calc
ModuleName
\Program Files\OmegaOne\1-Calc\1-Calc.exe
WhiteList
Dialog
I can't take responsibility if these changes don't work for someone or if they brick their device.

Not working
Hi all,
I have tried to apply this procedure but my applications still do not rotate.
I have tried both modifying the registry by hand, and using BsB Tweaks to rotate Excel but with no success. Any suggestions to share?
EDIT: I have tried disabling and re-enabling the Rotate feature (AutoRotation -> 0 -> 1), resetting the phone after each change, and now NO APPLICATION will rotate: not even HTC messaging nor the Sense Pictures tab.
HELP!!!!
EDIT 2: Solved! I've just found out by pure chance that rotating works only counterclockwise, while I assumed it should work both ways!
