Has anyone else noticed this? The built-in compass app is supposed to have a 'Set Destination' feature that lets you pick a destination from Google Maps and it will show a dot that you can use to navigate to that. I have a TMO US HD2 and there is no 'Set Destination' button at all. I checked the manual for the US HD2 and even that mentions this feature. What's going on?

Thanks for the quick reply Sam. I'll try that cab. I am curious though. It seem the cab was created to restore the compass to a stock one after flashing removed these features.
I just have the Stock TMO US Rom that the phone came with. I haven't flashed it or anything. Wonder if TMO removed this feature. Although I can't imagine why.

Hello misalies,
Did that .cab work?
I am using the stock T-mobile USA HD2 .rom also.
The version on the T-Mobile USA HD2 .rom is:
Digital compass for Pocket PC Version 1.0 (Build 1922.1511)
In the T-Mobile USA HD2 Manual, it shows this picture. I would like mine to be this way too.( #2 GPS Coordinates & #4 Destination Readout)

Did anyone try the cab and get it to work??? I am afraid to try it, but would love to know if it works!! please report back!
Ok, I have installed it on my T-Mo HD2 and....
it works!
I can't even get my compass to work always says magnetic interference.
The cab works but
Yes, I installed the cab and it works. I have the 'Set Destination' button now. But once I pick a location, the dot doesn't stay in one place. It's jerky. Not sure if that was because I was driving though.
Gotta do the figure 8

It has instructions on the screen for that. Move away from a computer or big TV or something like that and move the phone in a figure 8 like it shows. Usually does the trick for me even if I don't move the phone away from anything.
when doing that figure 8 thing, it works better and faster if you do vertical as well as horizontal movements.
I've tried everything, never works.
Where is the cab file at?
I feel retarded but I don't see where the .cab file is so I can download, when I go to those links sam left it only has info on how to install new rom. Any help would be great, thanks!

Can any Wizard owner copy out CapNotify.exe from your \Windows\Startup folder and DeviceLock.dll (assuming that's the right name) from \Windows and send it to me? I'd like to see if either of these programs will work on the Apache. Whichever you can provide, please PM me, email raphael143$msn.com, or post it here or somewhere I can grab.
Thanks in advance!
Here ya go
Can't find DeviceLock.dll. Not on UK/NK Vario dump and not on the new iMate dump. Sure that's the correct name?
Cheers,

I think it's shutil.dll, that's what the registry points to.
Thanks. By the way, what does your Today plug-in tree look like for the Device Lock feature?

Thanks for the files le_cactus, i've been looking for them for a looong time. Would you be able to export the regkeys for the Device Lock?
BeyondtheTech, I also have an Apache but I cannot get either to work.
The CapNotify didn't show up after copying it to the startup folder and adding the EnableIndicator key.
The shutil.dll also doesn't seem to do anything either. It seems that the Apache does that the shutil.dll in the Windows folder but it's 5KB and the one on the Wizard is 29KB. After I replaced it with the Wizard one and added the regkey (at least what I thought would work). The Today item shows up on the list but enabling it shows nothing on the today screen, just a blank space. I also noticed that it cause my phone to not get any reception and when I click on the phone app, it won't let me open it (CPROG.exe not available or something like that). I ended up deleting it and soft reset. The original shutil.dll came back on its own and the phone is back to normal.
So, it seems like these two feature doesn't work on the Apache. Hope you have better luck with it than me BTT. Keep us posted!

I think it would be worth it. For some reason, the Apache doesn't have this plugin. It would be nice to have so buttons won't get pressed by accident.
I've attached the capnotify.exe hope it helps.

Not sure of the fix but it looks like an odd overlay issue. Possibly a conflict with 2 dialers? /shrug

Wow -- what an interesting design. Very unique.
Seriously -- did you try to intstall another dialer or something? What did you do on the device today (installs / mods)??
last message, I had the big button dialer for while like a week or so and I decided to get a skin,
I saw a fourm and i got the img files for the black skin, So i put the img's in the windows dir. but that wasint the place to put them, it over writed like 2 img files i think, so i went into the phone skin folder in the windows dir. and i put them there did a soft-reset and it turned out like that, "first time i put the img's to the windows .dir no change after soft-reset" so can some one conger up some detailed step by step instructions on how to fix this, I got to go this was my last message im walking out the door right now.. 9:30pm GMT -05:00 "eastern time" is when ill be on, later guys and thanks for the help..
wow, man. if you erased images previously in windows folder, you might be SOL, just a bit, without knowing which ones. What I would do would be to try and use another dialer skin and install over the whole thing. try big button dialer again. try to install it and see if that works for you. i have included it in this post so you dont have to bother searching. i know that big button dialer uses all its own images so it might just overlay again and look right.

Alright i'm back, thank's for the steps, I just uninstalled the dialer and it just finished booting up, and wow, I turn my phone on and it statred dialing by its self???
Well im installing the new idaler and going to add the skin after it boots up, hopefully it doesint dail whole bunch of numbers and letters again lol..
Well I uninstalled the dialer, re-installed it, put the img's back into the phone skin folder and soft-rest my phone,
\edit
Well i'm just going to uninstall it and stick to the original big button dialer, guess I canno't put a new skin, if any one want's to go in depth with me on trying to fix this problem I would be more then happy to let them help me, thank's to who helped..
Is there anyone that can make a Dialpad that takes up more of the screen, Im looking for something along the lines of the example of the picture on the right.

The att one on the left is the current one I have which is the closest thing but very hard to use while driving and running around, which I got from PhilD41
I just changed the all the buttons to invert when they are pressed down where his only inverted the number and you couldn't see it under your finger while pressing it. If someone can just create one I can skin it myself, I just need a base to put them on. Thanks.
If anyone wants mine Ive attached it, to install just extract to windows directory.ONLY IF YOU HAVE HTC DAILER
you can try DXC's iphone dialpad, any style that's doesn't have a .5 at the end.

How do i use this flash dialpad? i have wm2003 and macromedia flash 7 installed but when i dial a number nothing happens...
Sorry, works fine here...
You just need flash 7, dial a number and press the green button...
oh, the EXE exports the data to the storage card, so I guess you need one too...
But i can make a version that exports to a automatic temp folder managed by you system.
hm... i have a storage card and in the temp folder are the files.
I use a german rom wm2003 rom for my magician. There is probably a difference between the folder names: the storage card is called Speicherkarte for example.
Too bad that it isnt working for me
A while ago I made a dialer that is full screen. It has no functionality other than dialing, and only works when installed to main memory...

Thx, but it's not the bar from first post:/ And second thing, it made my volume bars smaller:| I guess it isnt good app for touch hd
Dear jouh sadly it's true, the Volume Control doesn't work well after installation of this bar, and also it's difficul to remove it from Installed Programs!
Sorry guys, but that's really strange. Because I have no problems with the volume control with the task bar installed and absolutly no problems uninstalling it.

No no, don't worry, it's not a problem now...I unistalled this bar, and now it's everything ok...!...but it's very strange that it's possible to find a lot of Top Bar for Diamond, and it's so difficult to have the same with Blackstone
so is it safe to use on HD or not?

I downloaded the t-mobile on and it doesn't work.
I tested them all on my VZW TP2.
Hmmm.... did you have a carrier banner before?
I ask because I have not used a TMO TP2 before so I can't be certain.
well I guess it does I'm not sure directly below the start button in portrait it says 3G T-MOBILE
If would be just opposite that on the right side of the screen, below the taskbar.
Here is a screen capture of a 100% stock 6.1 VZW TP2
Highlighted is what these replace.
Doesnt work on my US Cellular Touch Pro2
so it appears that if you didnt have a carrier banner before, then these wont work.... but gimme some time... i have an idea
Cant wait! Hopefully you can make them work!
ATTNETION AT&T / TELUS / T-MOBILE / US CELLULAR PEEPS:
I need the manila files from US Cellular, AT&T, Telus and T-Mobile stock ROMs.
You can copy these to your computer by connecting with active sync and browsing to \Windows\ on the device. Then sort my file type.
If you are able / willing to do this let me know and I will PM you with my FTP server info so you can upload them in ZIP file format.
Thanks !!!
Doesn't work on Tilt 2 either
The carrier bar replacement doesn't seem to work on my ATT Tilt 2 with the stock rom. Maybe it's a WinMo 6.5 issue?

But when you soft reboot the phone the TELUS is back again.

The reg edit hack is only to change the carrier name on the upper left. I would like the Manila files so I try to figure out how to get this to show up if you don't already have one. PM if you can send files and I will send you FTP info.
