Hi,
I got an O2 Comet (Atom Live). Also got a protective film on the touch screen.
Now the pressure needed to use the touch screen is quite high in my opinion.
Is it possible to tweak/change the threshold value for the touch screen via registry tweaks etc. ? Or is the touch screen sensitivity for the Atom Life not changeable?
I got Medkid's Atom Life WM6.1 ROM installed btw.
Thx for any help,
boba
Have you tried this??
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Touch
or find 'Threshold'
Change the value of Pressure Threshold.(INCREASE value ONLY!!!)
Example, just set the value at 11880.
That doesn't exist in the registry
Any other suggestions?
Try and see if its in there,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel
What registry editor are you using?
Search your registry for DWORD, "PressureThreshold".
Nope its not there I'm using resco registry editor
Ok download the registry editor below and install it. (phone or storage card it doesn't matter)
Run the app and it should start something like this...
SCREENSHOT_1
Make sure you highlight HKEY_Local_Machine like in the photo otherwise it won't search correctly
SCREENSHOT_2
Now click on "FIND"
SCREENSHOT_3
Copy what you see in the photo onto your phone and click "FIND NEXT"
SCREENSHOT_4
And it should come up with something, if not I don't know what to tell you the instructions I have given are as handicapped as possible.

Hi, thanks for the help. It couldn't find the key either. I don't think atom life phones have this key. Are you using an atom life under WM6 too?
no, but there are plenty of posts where people have done it.
That posts I have read reference different registry locations, so I assume that the pressure configuration is set by each manufacturer.

Has anyone had success in completely replacing phone skins? I've noticed that the main dialer pad defaults to the original theme when pressed. I had hoped that the 2003 version might fix this but it seems not.
Yes, everithing is gifs, only pressed number key it is harcoded somewhere in program resources. I thing, that it could be phone.dll or PhonePH.dll.
Thanks, thats what I thought, a bit beyond my skill level I'm afraid! I'll just leave it as it is :wink:
Hi there

Solution
Well... that's not a problem but it has been done as a default setting of wm2k3se to save ur battery power. however u can anytime go to Start-->Settings-->System-->Backlight. Then click on the brightness tab & set it to maximum. u'll have ur old brightness back...
Re: Reduced display of Imate pocket pc after upgrade to wm20
Yeah thats true and I am aware of that.but even if i set the brightness to maximum it doesnt get that bright as it was before upgrade.i reverted it back and got the screen brightness back.is there a registry change it required.
did anyone have the same problem please confirm
Thanks

i fully agree with u there is quite a diff in backlight even when its max, before upgrade it was much mmore brighter.

Guys :!: The WM2K3 SE has nothing to do with the hardware within iMate. It is surely the dll file (ace_ddi.dll) that controls the backlight and its settings.
So if anyone can re-script the file, maybe then the problem can be solved :idea:
I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere (I've looked everywhere I can think of), but I seem to have somehow set the default for both input options to symbols only. I'm running a Verion TP with a few of the tweaks and mods I found. There's an option for "turn on one touch symbol entry" but even with that not selected, it seems to be doing exactly that? Anyone know a registry edit that would help? thanks in advance!
one of your tweaks is causing it.
i'm not sure of the tweak as i have not done it... this comes from reading the forums.
i think it has to do with t9 or something. it would be best if you tested your tweaks one at a time so you know what they are doing.
thanks, i've been trying to back them out one at a time (i only had 2 or 3). I didn't notice it until it was too late, after I'd done a couple in a row. that's why i was hoping someone might know what particular registry entry i can adjust.
Edit: I've backed them all out now and soft reset, still nothing. I'm worried only a hard reset is going to help...
Edit 2: Ok, i just went ahead and hard reset. Thanks anyway
Any idea what this was? I'm having the same issue!
I'm relatively certain you disabled xt9 using some program or another. If you enable it, the you should get the functionality back.

This is correct. For some reason this happens after going to the classic word correction and disableing eT9. A temp fix for this is to modify the following registry keys; I say temp, because it might happen again.
Temporarly fixed symbol lock on keyboard:
1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000
2. [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9]
XT9SupportMSSip value="0"
Thanks Jeff!
I had the same issue and your fix worked.
I only had the change the value for [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000
Mine was set to 00000001
The value for [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9] XT9SupportMSSip was already "0"

No problem! I am glad it worked for you.
My new HTC S740 is excellent except for one thing - the keypad backlight goes out after only 15 seconds. Very irritating in the dark.
I've looked for kb_light_timeout in hklm/software/htc/keypad but this does not exist.
I've found keylight timeout and qkeyledtimeout in hkcu/control panel/backlight which looks like the right place but altering values and rebooting makes no difference.
I've also looked in hklm/drivers/builtin/keylight and keypad.
I feel I'm very close. Can anyone help?
Yes Its most annoying as well as fact that only numbers or keys round circular button light seperately. Look forward to someone cracking it. Otherwise an excellent phone.
I agree, this is very annoying.
So theres no fix for this issue? To bad no ACT for this phone. An awesome phone, just wm standard gets so little love it seems.
I did some research today and he're the results:
1. This is far of to be a new issue. First complaints about the keyboard backlight timeout you can find under Qtek models...
2. Apparently, they were just few (2-3?) HTC models supporting a registry entry included in WM hkcu/control panel/backlight/QKeyLedTimeout - Rose definitely doesn't
3. The issue could be a case of WM 6.1 limitation - Rose has in fact three keyboard backlight arrays with separate light managements (soft keys, numeric, QWERTY - try to use them simultaneusly and you will see - their timing is independent on each other) and I've found some extra HTC registry entries concerning power management confirming a bit non-standard settings. Unluckily, nothing useful there for the kb backlights.
Sorry, based on my experiments, I can advice you only one very strange way how to overcome it for now: Limit the display timeout to the same 10 seconds as the keyboard has. At least, first press of any key will become inactive and just light-up both display and keyboard. Until display works, all keys are still active even the keybord backlight is off.
Nevertheless, any opposite finding will be appreciated...
Thank you for your investigation
I have a new s743 and this is the exact problem I came searching for fix for!
Too bad - it really is a sweet phone.

To me this is a winmo thing. I don't understand why this option isn't included from the factory. It is a plain "NO BRAINER"! It's been this way on all my previous devices whether pro or standard. The diff being the pro os has wonderful tweaks and various cabs one can install to set the time out. What we need is to get some tweaking guru to set up something like ACT for standard. Problem is so little love for the standard os. The screens are to small anyway for my taste. I'll just stick to pro, the tweaks are better.
Well, i set the display timeout on my device to 5 seconds. Backlight of the qwerty and numeric keypads went off after 5 seconds.
The softkeys remained lit till 10 seconds was up.
my atom pure's touchscreen is totally not functioning. tried to upgrade different roms but still no help. so i buy a touchscreen replacement and send it to somebody who can fit it on. the touchscreen replacement fits well but the problem is when im on the screen alignment program, point tapping dont end!! i meant the alignment process never ends. i installed a registry editor so that i can edit the touch settings value. but since the screen is not aligned cant use the virtual keyboad to input the necessary value. so i need the help of chefs here to apply my idea. is it posibble to cooked the correct alignment value on rom and at the same time skipping the alignment screen after a had reset just like what we have on some of hermes rom? if this proceedure is already implemented please send me a link of that rom so that i could try it coz i have a feeling that it will solve my problem.
thanks a lot more power
