Search button & search provider - Omnia 7 General

Hi guys...
I hate the search sensor button, on my Omnia 7...
I accidentaly pressing it all the time, I want to disable it, or even make it work differentely...
Is there any way, how to change its functionality?
And theres another thing... How can I change the default search provider via Registry on the DFT rom?
I found this tutorial, but cannot find that registry keys, shown here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...99&postcount=5
Thanks for the answers...

Nobody answers, but finally, I found the solution, how to change the search provider.
On mango, just add the registry key:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchProviders\Google]
and there a new value of:
"URL"="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&site=&q={searchTerms}"
Don't forget to set the Search provider in Settings - Applications - Internet Explorer...
And it's done

im on DFT rom but i can't do anything in registry. when i try to add new value registry editor is closing and phone going to home

@ Jonage - Thanks man, this works with me
@ eselcuker - please check that your phone didn't relocked after you first connected it to Zune after flashing DFT rom. For the Sammy Rainbow DFT ROM, you need to make changes on the registry by deleting the value on the PortalUrlint and PortalUrlProd both are under the DeviceReg before connecting device to Zune otherwise it will relocked. Please read the thread on the Sammy Rainbow DFT to find out more.

Bluetooth settings

Hi
I have discovered this site just now as a was searching for information on how to updrade by qtek9100 for a2dp and use a bluetooth stereoheadset with it.
I found some leads but they all ended in my not being allowed to change the registry settings for
"local machine"\drivers\BuiltIn\"
I can not add BuiltIn\BtA2dpSnd and therefore not conclude the setup.
Is there anyone who can give me some advice on how to go about this ?
I have updgraded to the latest official ROM for sweden.

Try the CAB file attached
You might have to unlock your phone before you try and change the registry settings.

The cause for the problem may be one of the following:
1, you used a desktop ActiveSync-based registry editor.
Don't use desktop tools to chage the Registry. As is pointed out in my Registry Editor Bible, it won't work. Use a PPC-only registry editor.
2, you didn't shut down the PPC entirely after this (or waited long enough for the changes to be written to the Flash ROM as is explained in many of my WM5 & registry & flash ROM-related articles); this is why the changes haven't been stored.
Note that this has NOTHING to do with your phone's being locked. You do NOT need to unlock your device.

Hide SIM contacts on Touch Plus

Hi all,
My other half bought a Touch Plus yesterday and I've been adding software to it to make all that much better.
The contacts are stored on the SIM and I've copied them all into Pocket Outlook. I then made the reg tweak to hide the SIM contacts which worked immediately, hiding all the SIM contacts. However, when I soft reset the device (via software or holding down the power button and then re-powering on) the registry value goes back to what it was - showing the SIM contacts!
Is there any way that reg value can be kept to 0?
Cheers
ND
Hi
I have the exact same problem and asked this question previously here, never got a answer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359152
The first thing after a reboot is to hide my SIM contacts... If anyone have a solution it would be very nice.
Kind Regards
I have found a solution...
Download dotfred's excellent TaskManager/Registry Editor from: http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Copy the exe to wherever you want on your device,
Use the registry editor in there to set the ShowSIM value to 0.
Export that registry value... to \My Documents\HideSIMContacts.reg (for example)
Create a shortcut to the task manager exe in Windows\StartUp.
Edit the properties of that shortcut (I use Resco Explorer) and set the Target as follows:
"<path to task manager>" \My Documents\HideSIMContacts.reg /silent
Make sure you have "'s around the Task Manager path BUT NOT around the path for the reg file.
Reboot...
Bob's your uncle.
I had the same issue with my previous Orange UK stock ROM, don’t know why the registry tweak does NOT stick after SR on certain ROM’s :-/ so in the end I resorted to installing the attached cab which fixed the issue
On my current HTCAsia WEE ROM the registry tweak works so no need for the cab fix! Anyway for those with ROM where the registry tweak does NOT work, you can use the fix mentioned here by NinjaDonkey or install the attached cab and soft reset, that should do the trick
AWESOME...thanks, I have a locked rogers HTC Touch and have tried many different Reg tweaks that would not stick to hide the SIMs in my Contacts, but the NIKI Sim fix above finally got it. Thanks, thank you, thanx again.

Wrong Operator Name

Hi,
I am using a mini & it shows wrong spelling of the operator name i.e. GrameemPhone instead of GrameenPhone.
Would anyone be kind enough to give me a solution? I know there are lots of gurus out there ...
Cheers...
I am using a HTC Touch Viva (Opal), same problem. "GrameemPhone" instead of "GrameenPhone".
Very annoying
you can try xiaojin's font changer..it has an option to change operator name to whatever name you prefer..
Wrong Operator Name bug fixed:GrameemPhone instead of Grameenphone
1. Install any registry editor. Here is a free to download: http://www.phm.lu/products/pocketpc/regedit/
2. Run the registry editor and Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/RIL/OperatorNames
3. Select the OperatorNames from the tree list and add a New String Value from Edit menu of that registry editor. Give the value name is "47001" and Value data is "Grameenphone".
4. Save and reboot the device.
Warm Wishes,

Hi, i have been a long time user of WM. However recently i switched to HTC Hero (Android) which has the same problem - misspelled operator name. Any advise? Sorry, probably this is not the right forum to ask this. Rgds.
My goodness. I am revisiting same thread with another HTC after a year.
This time HTC Desire, same problem. GrameemPhone instead of GrameenPhone.
Anyway to fix it?
Haven't got solution for android.

I don't have the WinMo anymore.

Meanwhile, if anyone knows how to fix the problem on Android, that would be great.

why should tamper with the Registry editor bappinath, bappinath ..! it only helps temporarily ... if at any time you change the operator if you akn replace the operator name again ...? can become tired
should just use this ===> it will fit with existing state and operator

Dummy guide for 1st time user on window mobile phone

"Note for users new to Windows Mobile you will need a registry editor to find and edit files beginning with either HKLM or HKCU and a file editor that can unhide system files. Resco supply both apps and are recommended but are not the only apps out there. All registry entries are in red."
Hi all,as this is my first window mobile phone,i do not understand what the above means and how they will help me.Can someone explained further.
Also,can someone advice a link that is similar to a dummy guide for window mobile phone.
Thks all for helping in advance

As this is your first windows mobile phone, I would strongly recommend ignoring that 1st sentance, and just enjoy the phone as much as possible. Then, when you know it better and have some idea what you'd like to do that it won't let you, come here and search for things (only ask after searching fails to find anything ).
If you've not had a windows mobile phone before, jumping into editing the registry and modifying system files is a 100% sure way to brick your phone. It's easy when you know how, so take your time and learn.
Other than that, welcome to XDA and the world of Windows mobile
Quite a lot of the registry tweaks can be don't in a user friendly way using a program called BSB Tweaks.The latest version is 1.6, so have a search for it here and install on your HD2.
That will probably keep you tweaking safely for a will.
thks for valuable advice,as now,i have come to understand why do i need to install the registry editor,however,i do not know the history of the window mobile phone,so can someone enlightened if there is any version on the registry editor and where can i get this.
Thank you in advance
There is a beta version of the Resco product you mention, which can be downloaded at their forum. This is the most convenient on your new touch capable device.
Please remember that playing around with registry settings can brick the system. In such a case, you will have to hard reset your device.
Also, I can only second what the other posters already recommended. Get to know your product step by step, especially with registry changes. Once you understand, it is no magic thing.

wifi on in standby

Guys,
I'm new in this forum so I wish say hi to everybody...
Then, I have an HTC diamond 2 (original rom) I've searched for the topic in the forum and I found just a solution working in my phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515808&page=3
I've downloaded the cab and everything is working fine, but, because on soft reset all the values return to the original one I'm forced to install the cab everytime, so it should be easier to create a button that is going to modify the following parameter in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms]
"HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended"=dword:00000001
Is it possible? There is someone helping me?
I have to keep on the wifi in order to use my voip...
Thanks in advance,
Markuz
You can export that registry key and just insttall the registry instead of the cab if the settings aren't sticking.
