Registry help aligning Prophet screen - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

I would like some help.
Part of my Prophet screen doesn't work anymore.
This means aligning is hell.
I would like to squeeze some more life out of the thing ...
Especially with guys like Gullum, Cloudifa, and all the other ones ...
I have already found out the registry key is
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH\Calibration settings
I have only found values for elf, atom and others on the net.
But they are not yet as close to Prophet (atom is OK except for the far right side of the screen (scroll ...)
Could someone please be able to give me the values on their prophet ?
Want to post it instead of messaging directly to keep this on the forum for others.
If I should have missed an earlies posting woth the settings, sorry, please then redirect me.

These values are unique to each device. If every device was the same, there would be no need for this!
From my ROM setup: 1839,1997 3118,684 3126,3328 577,3291 602,690

Thanks !
I know about the unique settings, but with your prophet settings I can try to come closer thn woth settings fora completely different device, and maybe tweak a bit more myself through remot registry editor.
Thanks again!

You need a registry editor. If you just want to realign the screen, hold the windows hardware button and then press the centre d-pad button.

Maybe a hardware issue...
Try using a registry editor (I'd use this) to edit the settings using those above... May not be perfect but may help....

Hard buttons config

Hi all
Can anyone send me the following registry key (and subkeys) please (of the HTC TyTN / Hermes)
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
I have a problem with my power button and I've discovered that some values are missing in this registry key.
P.S.: If possible, please send me the configuration from an original rom without any third party software.
Many thanks!

Yes, until now I had not noticed that but that is indeed true on mine. I have also not carried out any customisation or even reset any of these buttons (well since last HR anyway)
Mike
Hi again Mike!
Ok, I've deleted the "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C5" key and now the power button works perfectly.
I have wisbar advance 2 installed and probably, somehow I think, messing arround in his settings has created the power button mapping and that makes his behaviour anoying...
Maybe this is a solution for some other people with this problem. I've seen there are more people in the forum with the "power button problem".
Many thanks.
Power Button
Good news.
Had not seen others with the problem of the "power button" but if I spot them I'll link to here and by repeating power button problem hopefully searches will lead here!!!!
Mike

Well now, I wonder!
Perhaps you could write up a detailed piece on exactly what was happening and then the exact detail of what you did/changed. I have a pretty good picture but if you get the time the old blow by blow account would be useful.
Cheers
Mike
going to bed now-enough problems for one day!!!
Mike,
sorry but I dont know exactly what you want to say with "old blow by blow account". My native language is not english and I dont know that expression.
I can say that my power/toggle screen button becomes "non responsive" in the past couple of days, sometimes works after 3/4 presses or after a long press but other times I need to do a sw reset pressing with the stylus in the reset button/hole.
What I did to fix this malfunction is what I've described in this thread's 5 post (here)
I've used resco's Registry Editor and deleted the key "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C5" and all of it's contents.
Now the power/toggle screen button works perfectly!
If you need some more information, just do has one of our tv commercial
"explains it as if I am too much donkey"
Cheers,
Nero
I'm from Portugal.. same GMT, sweet dreams
Would this make it in a wizard too?
Hi guys, I have a wizard with the power button inoperant, everything else looks work fine... I tried several tricks given in the forums and those are great to power it off but not for turning on the phone niether the display on. Would this make it in the wizard too?
Luiggi, take a backup of your registry (Everyone should before registry editing), and just try it!

Thx!
Thanks VJ

Thank you Vijay I took a look to the 8125 registry and is quite different, i´m afraid this wouldn´t work for the Wizard. I´ve tried also a couple of your programas (VJKeypress and VJEscahaton) but can´t help either, my problem is to turn the phone on (i´ve been using softreset during a connection to the power supply) and all indicates that this is a hardware issue... any thoughts?
Take a full backup (eg SPB Backup) then hardreset. Test if a clean rom still has the problem. If it does, it's a hardware issue, get it repaired.
Otherwise, if it's software, list what you've got or rebuild your installation.

I follow your advice and @ 80% of flashing stalls for awhile with the progress bar in red, after some minutes proceeded turning the progress bar in blue color and @ 95% progress I got ERROR326 : INVALID COMMAND "With the legend "This NBF file can not be used for your phone. Please check your NBF file" The screen was white with the 95% progress bar and lost connection with the PC, I tried a softreset and what I got was the tricolor scren with IPL / SPL data and RUU at the top right. I´m afraid that we have another G4 casualty...
And few hours later.......
I reflashed the phone with RUU_RIsidoro_2.26.10.2_WWE+CF2SP1_G4 this time it went to the 100% progress and the congratulation screen for a succesful flashing, however stalls in bootloader screen (this time without the RUU inthe top right), whenever I do a softreset (since the on / off button still is not working) The HTC innovation splash screen shows up, then disappears and my Wizard returns to the bootloader mode. I think I should be moving to the Wizard forums, thank you VJ!

A few UI modificaiton questions.

I've been searching around quite a bit but have been unable to find solutions for what I would like to do to my PPC.
I have a hermes running At&t wm5 with no intention of upgrading yet;
but my questions are:
1. I would like to change the icons of the programs in all of my menus such as start>programs and start>system>settings. I assume a program or patch, as well as a lot of work is needed. Any ideas how to go about doing this?
2. I want to change the 2 bottom soft keys on the today screen (phone/contacts) to Lock / Contacts. As in just hit my left hard or soft key to lock the phone.
Any help is much appreciated
(Also, sorry if this is the wrong forum)

try the attached file for this... called softkey changer.
hey. thank you for the app! I tried it but unfortunately it did not have an option to place the device lock as a soft key.
so unfortunately both problems are still left unsolved =/

Align using registry edit - SOLVED!

Hello,
Bad luck. I purchased a Hermes 100 but unfortuantely it have the issue of alignment and if i made the hard reset it keep asking again and again for the alignment.
I also try to remove the plastic that make the pressure on the LCD but it don't work for me.
By chance i read the thread that state to bypass the align screen by creating the welcome.not file on the storage card.
I created the file and got a chance to get access to the today screen but the problem not end yet the touch screen is misalligned completly. Now, whenever i try to run the allignment the program keep asking me again and again.
I hear that i may modify the registry settings to manually specify the align values. I installed the reg edit software using the storage card. Can someone tell me what values i enter and where...
It have Windows mobile 5 and IPL is 1.00 and SPL 1.04
Thank you and please help me....
****************************************************************
SOLVED: Whenever i restart now i have to manullay using the keypad goto the align screen in the setting. And the first align when it ask me for the realign i just press the power button and again once again to bring it back from standby and it is aligned automatically!
****************************************************************
Dude, getting a Hermes with alignment problems is not a good idea. It may need to have the LCD replaced, which isn't expensive but ther emay be other underlying problems too.
I don't know how you will fix it through the registry as it will just keep going out of alignment and all it takes is 1 HR then you in trouble again.
Best idea would be to replace the LCD.
Cheers...

I think that there is some issue in the ROM i think so as even if i connect it to the USB it keep charging but don't notify to the Activesync.
I don't know if these is rom issue or something....
Even in the bootloader screen it gives the name as :
HERM100
IPL-100
HERM100
SPL-1.04
Serial. even the USB is connected it keep the word serial on it.
Install Hard SPL then change rom...
Sorry, for my ideot question.
Do i am able to install hard SPL using memory card. And also it will save my current rom too or not. As i am scare if it got stuck on the align screen again?
It could be aligned by REGEDIT
Mmmmmm let me search the regs to be modded
and I will posted here... but your problem i more like hardware even if the align screen can be aligned your touch wont be fixed...
or not?
The key and settings are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
"CalibrationData"="1922,1957 3330,639 3317,3276 600,3230 609,677 "

Well, these values don't work for me. The only thing that is working for me is the solution that i paste in my question. But the only issue with it is that i have to do it again after every reset.
Do someone have the alignned file for hermes for the Remote screen alignment software?
There is from i get the reg

Touch Screen Answer Button doesn't work

Has anyone encountered this problem??
On an incoming call, I attempt to press "ANSWER" on the touch screen and nothing happens. Pressing "IGNORE" seems to work.
I have the following installed:
- Gyrator 2
- Diamond Tweak 0.5.3
- TF3D Configuration 0.6.7
- AppToDate
Could any of these be creating some form of conflict? I know I should probably delete one by one, but was wondering if anyone else has heard of this.
Thanks
Lee

Also, it seems to be an intermittent problem, which makes it even more frustrating!!
Nooo all good there I was wondering if you had a keydisabler, but you dont.
When things go sour on you phone you should preform a hard reset that solves all problems.

I know this is my first post but my answer key became unresponsive when I changed the pressure sensitivity of my screen...
I used the values people posted on the forum and everything else was fine but the green answer key on the screen wasn't working properly. I changed the values back and it works fine now!

Could you please tell me where in the registry you made those changes so I could check the values. Also, let me know what values you have listed so I can compare.

Touch screen damanged. Need to send SMS.

ANyone please help. My BA's Touchscreen is cracked and not functioning anymore. But for now i need to use it. When sending SMS i have to touch or press the Send button from the touch screen. But since my screen doesnt work anymore, is there a way like assigning the "Send" button into the hardware key?
Or is there any application that can do this? Anyone please help!
Thanks in advance!
hi
what do u mean cracked?there is a picture and there is no tap action?or there is no picture and response anymore?there is like damage in lcd like un usual colors and rabush and lines?because may be if u change the rom or re-upgrading the rom,may be the problem fixed,specially in minor problems.
i think u cannot send msgs without tap action.
there is a crack, display is okay, but touch response is not fuctioning well, the only thing i notice is that, when i press on the right bottom most of the screen, sometime touch works and sometimes not works. I been trying to do the Align screen method but doesnt work. i think it is the hardware problem.
if that sms is really that important to you, you can always connect the device to the pc and when connected to activesync a nice little freeware called "my mobiler" can be used to control the device with the pc's mouse and keyboard and gets the device's screen on your pc screen. it can be downloaded here:
http://www.mymobiler.com/
but after bypassing the problem for now, we should focus on getting the thing fixed. you could answer homam_france's questions to help us determine what exactly went wrong and maybe you don't need to bypass then anymore but can solve the problem!
EDIT: ignore the request for more information, you already answered while i was writing this
@Chef_Tony
Thank you, but that is what I am doing right now. But my problem is that when i am not in from of my pc and I need to send important sms? Maybe there is a software that can map the Send softkey to hardware key.
Thanks again!
you could try this program:
http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=21070
there is a trial version there, and if you can install, start and control that program without the use of the touch screen, or from your pc, maybe you can tell it to for example, map the left softkey with the mail hardware key or something like that, i haven't tested it. if that prog is not right, on the bottom of that page there is a link for related applications, maybe one of those helps you.
if, however, the remapping of the keys does not work, for a different sms application, you could try:
iwindowsmobile sms chat:
http://iwindowsmobile.com/threaded-sms-messaging.html
visual it simple sms:
http://www.visualit.co.uk/PocketPC/simplesms_V5.htm
or this one:
http://www.mobileflipper.com/mobile-tips/sms-application-for-windows-mobile-50-60-and-61/
maybe their way of hitting the send button is different and works for your device.
by the way, on any normal mobile phone, you can also send an sms by pressing the green call button, unfortunately, ppc phones don't do that.

Why don't you just go to Setting/Personal/Buttons and map a button to "<Left Softkey>"
Thanks to everyone
Thanks to you all. I finally got a chance to fix my touch screen. not bad at all. except that i forgot to right fit the volume hardware keys.
Be very careful with the Volume key, if you don't close the case wright, you might broke the switch (a little switch on the mainboard that is moved by the volume key). Just make shure it's in the wright place when closing the case
Hi to all.
What can I do in case the ba is working, the screen is perfect but no more touch? it's a os 5.2.1933(18533.0.7.0)
thanks
that can happen but it has probably nothing to do with the rom. it means that the digitizer is broken and you need to look for a new one, maybe a good ebay search or a post in xda's marketplace could help you
thanks 4 the reply. Do you mean a new lcd screen?
no, just the digitizer, it is the see through touch panel on top on the actual display, maybe you are lucky and find a cheap one, as you don't need a new screen.
you can buy a new digitizer on dealextreme.com, i recall a few months ago they were selling the digitizers for Blueangel devices, its very easy to disassemble the BA & replace it. Good luck.
BA Screen alignment settings at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH
Can any of the members pl. post the screen alignment settings available at Registry entry Screen alignment settings for BA and/or variants at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH
Value Name: CalibrationData
Value data:
? (5 sets of data)
Value type: REG_SZ
Value Name: MaxCalError
Value Data: ?
Base : Decimal
Value type: REG_DWORD
With these values most of the BA devices with defective touch screen can become functional to large extent.
Actually we can add the values to the BA Wiki
Regards
here's the CalibrationData:
17 154,258 154,788 865,785 859,262
i dont have a MaxCalError key.
Good luck,
dtd
Hi DTD,
Thanks for the prompt reply. Pl. verify the data provided by you as it doesnt seem to have the 5 sets for the CalibrationData values & repost correctly.
Thanks in advance
Regards
