Nope, tytn has a samsung cpu. XCPUScalar is only valid for xscale processors.
There is not yet a working overclocking solution for the TyTN.

Pocket Hack Master
The last version has been completely rewritten and it handles SAMSUNG processors...
Supports Intel PXA210/PXA250/PXA255/PXA261/PXA263/PXA270/PXA271/PXA272 and Samsung S3C2410/S3C2410A/S3C2440/S3C2440A/S3C2442 processors!

Yes, but it doesn't work on the Hermes, you can overclock and underclock it, but it will hardreset and become unstable after a while. I tried with both production and preproduction (300Mhz samsung) versions of the Hermes with the same results.
wtf...."my tytn is slowing down" solution "overclock it", who brought the crack today?
First thing would be to see how much crap you have in start up, and how much junk you have on your today screen constantly refreshing, I have 30 applications installed on my tytn, and NO slowdown.
I should have ignored this thread, but working in the pc tech help for many years...I never would have imagined to tell someone to OC their pc if it was slow, same applies to this device, this isn't the Omap processor, as you all know...the tytn is actually fairly quick, if you don't muck it all up with memory resident poop.
Also, why anyone would bother with an app to change the softbuttons is beyond me, it just takes a couple minutes with a registry editor, which equals less junk installed on your tytn.
edit: sorry I was a bit surly this morning, and I couldn't stfu...it just looks to me that vid200 is a bit of a novice from his initial question (sorry if I am wrong, no offence meant vid200) by the nature of it and that the answer is easily found on google and the wiki.
I can understand pointing someone out the app to easily change the softkeys..it saves trying to teach someone about registry editing, but to tell that same person to OC their ppc when they haven't even really dug into manually tweaking it is just nutty, you have to crawl before you can walk.
vid200, if you don't have it, I suggest you give memmaid a try, and see what is slowin you down, also I don't know if the softbutton app you have permits it, but if you manually change the softkeys with a registry editor, you can link them to .cpl files, for example the taskman.cpl file found on this forum, and easily bring up the oem taskmanager, or any other control panel apps...battery..memory..there is a .zip floating around with most all the .cpl files in it, and when you stick with the oem monitors it helps with speed and battery life just less polling and memory usage, also just throwin the tip out there, some people might not know they can link to cpl's.
the only things that have slowed down my tytn are the wisbar advance (all of em) and Pocket PC PhoneAlarm,
I don't recommend both of them as they are resource hogs and have memory leaks,
aside from those two I have 30 so apllications and tons of today plugins and my device is fast and very responsive.
Hello all,
Need your help for the following:
I am trying to use left sofkey to lock pda, like we use on a nokia phone (left key + * to lock phone).
I have used SoftkeyAppletEx (Thanks Dotfred!), but i still could not find the correct block keys file to link to softkey.
For sure this is not impossible, as we can put that option on today screen.
Anyone could help to identify that file???
“Also, why anyone would bother with an app to change the softbuttons is beyond me, it just takes a couple minutes with a registry editor, which equals less junk installed on your tytn.
edit: sorry I was a bit surly this morning, and I couldn't stfu...it just looks to me that vid200 is a bit of a novice from his initial question (sorry if I am wrong, no offence meant vid200) by the nature of it and that the answer is easily found on google and the wiki.”
No offence taken, and yes I am a novice and I never messed up with registry before. Belive me I have searched and read forums and google, but softkey change just did not work on my device since all the other registry changes I made did work.. So I asked for help.
I will start the oem taskmanager and see if there is a problem.
10x for the advice
P.S.ne more question: where and how can I change the tone for messages, I can't find the folder to copy the ring tone in to.

You're not offensed, but I am. This so called 'ChaoticDruid' guy has no respect for the work made by others. I surely won't use 'Druid', because he has no wisdom being so pretentious, and I wouldn't use Chaotic but more 'Causing chaos'...
Surely, he's so clever that he advices a novice to play with the registry, this is very wise indeed. Furthermore, I didn't know that a Control Panel Applet could cause the slow down of a machine, but yes he has so many years of experience that he doesn't even know that. And I would add that not everybody wants to take a couple of minutes (I wish it was true if you don't know what you're looking for) to dig in the registry, if it can be done in two seconds.

Ok
I understand your point of view,
But this is a forum so I suggest we keep discussing things not arguing.
Well, so I read on other topics that SPB pocket plus is a slow down application and I have to admit I am using it so I am thinking of changing it maybe with some other programs.
Any suggestions, I would like to make my today screen like this:
Connection manager
GPRS counter,
Whether report
Messages (lsit all unread emails and tekst messages)
Tasks
Calendar
And Icons for the applications in tray bar.
I would also like to put new message (and have a choice: text, email or MMS) to the left soft key, but I do not know how.
BUT since I am a newbie I can only admire your today screens and hope I will find out somewhere how you did it.
I would like to ask how to change the ring for incoming message,
I would like to ask how to put icons in the bottom right corner in a tray bar where already the icon for emoze push mail is.
1) And for all of you out there thanks for the help you give me
2) I have the device for 4 days and my girlfriend says it is all I have been doing for the past 4 days so don’t even thing I’m not spending hours and reading forums and searching.

PHM Tray Launcher allows you to add a tray icon in the taskbar.
I also use SPB Pocket Plus, so for another "today manager" ask to others, this one is enough for me.
Use Tweaks2k2.Net
There is a specific tweak to override the sofkeys' setings.
You can replace key caption or programs, for instance you can remove "Calendar" and set "Agenda" and so on for Contacts
Change your Left/Right Today softkeys
Here is the registry tweak you requested -
================================================
Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = Calendar (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx
=================================================
Actually, you can select any name or app on the Left /Right softkey. Test the length of the word (make sure it fits all on the bar). You may get the application ".exe" from /windows folder of your device.
I would advise though not to fiddle on the right key as that is a bit complicated.
For example, mine I used on the Left softkey the name "Phone Pad" and used "VTKey.exe" (without the quotes) instead of Calendar and Calendar.exe. It worked perfectly well on my Imate Jasjar with no problem at all on portrait/landscape orientation. Hoped it does, too, on your device.
Cheers !!!
Look for SoftKeyAppletEx to remap your softkeys ..
Want 8-12 more MB of free RAM on your horribly gimped 6850???? Just disable the pretty HTC dialer skin. The dialer will switch back to the default WM one, which to be honest, I still prefer. Little did I know the HTC skin was sucking up about 10 MB of RAM.
Give it a shot and share the results. You can use several apps like Advanced Config or Diamond Tweak to disable the HTC dialer skin, or change it manually via the registry.
Below is the manual registry tweak:
-'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Security / Phone / Skin'
-change the value of 'Enabled' from 1 to 0.
Wanted to see if others saw the same results by simply disabling the dialer skin.
A+ thread
I also gained about 10MB of memory and i also like the default dialer
I tried it and noticed my total ram usage went from about 66% to 58%, so that is a pretty nice improvement. I do prefer the skinned dialer for looks but it seems like the default dialer is a little bit more responsive.
Gained roughly 11 MB of Memory after this tweak!
Very nice tweak..thanks
very nice find. I saw it in the advance config, never tried it until now. Didn't expect it to take 10MB!
wow i just used it on my fuze and i only have 29 pct of memory being used now
thanks for the tip i never expected that much memory freed up
im at 24% ram usage wow. i wonder a normal windows theme not the TF3D this tweak will do to the battery life and then polling reg change 813AM took off charger just did 10TXTs with TF3D still on will get back to this later and edit it. to tell of my findings.
+1
WM Dialer isn't much worse if any. 10MB is a nice chunk.
Great find, THX!!! I too like the default dialer better.
***UPDATE*** - This makes the bluetooth icon disappear from the task line at the top, when using the manual registry tweak. Don't know if the same thing happens when using the two tweak programs.
You can also disable the HTC SIP menu (SIPGT_app.exe) for a couple more mb of ram.
(Remove HCKU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\SIP_Menu. May want to back it up if you wish to bring it back.)
The menu to switch between soft keyboards won't function if you stop SIPGT_app running at boot.
On second thought, I decided against this hack.
It also affects the incoming call screen. Much harder to answer a call with the screen that comes up with the HTC dialer.

This does change incomming calls back to the default WM style. You can use the Green/Call hardware button to answer incomming calls.
Am I the only one who lost the bluetooth icon?
Disabling the dialer extension has the unpleasant side effect of disabling the nice indicator that tells you whether your data link is dormant or not, however ("data arrows" will stay lit forever).
I prefer to switch back to PhoneCanvas.dll (the xv6800-style dialer) as the dialer extension and then rename away the DIALER/PROGRESS bitmap settings in HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin. (Set "ext" to "\windows\PhoneCanvas.dll", and leave Enabled set to 1.)
This still saves significantly on RAM, but it doesn't break the nice indicators for data activity or not, which I personally find useful.
skywing is right. i verified it on my sprint touch pro. his mod does work better. I just wish we had a full skin like kokko's old skin or paul's big button dialer. that would be nice to have in vga mode.
thanks,
sid
it does get rid of bluetooth notifier i switched back to regular luckily i have the att version so 10 mb isnt a big deal haha

If I understood your question, the default that the phone came with was:
\windows\phcanhtc.dll
Hope that helps.
one problem with skywing's method is the once u make a call u get a whitescreen that looks like the HTC dialer interfering with the WINMO dialer. i just disabled the key and used the default dialer. I can live with the arrows. not that big of a deal.
Flashed to WM6.5 in an apparently futile quest to resolve my wifi connectivity issues. Now I'm trying to get used to the new UI. It's fine, but I'm missing one feature on the phone: It used to be that within the Phone application, hitting up on the D-pad would bring up Speed Dial, then you could hit the D-pad up or down to get to the number you want, and then hit the middle of the D-pad to dial. Made for nice eyes-free dialing. How do I replicate that feature?
iconsoft phonex has an even quicker option of favorites
it also has a fairly simple speed dial using the pad
comes with a today plugin w/ row of quick opening buttons:
favorites, messaging, phone pad, comm manager, ring/vibe selector
favs, comm & selector all slide open right on the today screen
making calls to my favorites has never been quicker or easier
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506221
this is the favorite people app for win 6.5 and you can use the dpad for dialing
Thanks for your replies. What I'm looking for is fast, eyes-free dialing. Under WM5 and WM6, I used a program called Smartskey. It remapped the function of the d-pad within the default Phone application, so that hitting Up brought up your speed dials and Down brought up the call history. I found my old copy of smartskey 0.6 archived on my PC and installed it on my new WM6.5, but it appears that those d-pad remappings aren't working.
I downloaded and installed the demo for phonex. It's quite nice, thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, the today shortcuts aren't as useful under Titanium, which is what I'm trying to run.
I may resort to that Favorite People app, but if possible I'd rather find a way to replicate the old smartskey functionality -- habits are hard to break.
Ok, Everybody heres a finished (to my comfort) dialer that as far as i can see works properly.
I'll say its working at 99.999 percent and as with all the other canvases, landscape is not perfect.
its primarily for manila 2.5 but can work with 2.1, its 2G so no video calling but does have conference and works preaty smooth.
just quit cprog (and phcanvga.exe if you have it), install and then soft reset.
Cab pyrorob_gullum_Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G_4_2_V2.cab
Package: pyrorob_gullum_Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G_4_2_V2.rar
for those with the energy rom, heres a theme to match: pyrorob PhoneCanvas 4.2 EnergyRom Theme.cab install after the main install, soft reset.
So, i do want to thank everyone here and those who donate there time with this. I really appreciate this and am thankful for everyones help.
short statement:
we are a community of people helping each other to better our devices and only a tiny fraction of all the users contribute.
its great when it happens and no one should expect accolades or payment for there creativity.
(dont get me started on people who will only release things on this site until they get paid, i think it stifles the advancement of the community as a whole).
Now, i do want to specifically thank amarullz, whose phcanvga.exe im using, which without it, would have seriously hampered this and gullum who has been absolutely helpful and all the testers.
Phone Canvases in testing:
pyrorob Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G_3_0_1916_3532_2_ERom_Theme.cab
manila 2.1 compatible,no curtain, energyrom theme and confrence calling
pyrorob PhoneCanvas_4_3_35776_01.cab
manila 2.1 compatible,no curtain, confrence calling,AT&T video share and AT&T ptt (push to talk).
Hi Pyrorob, Im sure many people here are like me and read your posts, use your fixes, but dont know how to mod dialers and whatnot, so cant really offer help or suggestions with the things you are asking. It doesnt mean your efforst aren't appreciated though!
Regarding your dialer, it would be helpful if you posted a screenshot so we know what we're getting. And also some confirmations that we can uninstall the cab and it will restore our previous dialer without any issues etc. It probably also pays to mention not to use SKTools as you said in the EnergyROM thread it can totally delete the phone canvas and you wont be able to get back the one prior to install
Out of interest just how DO you do something like this anyway? Im a computer programmer but dont know anything about working on the phones. Like what language is the dialer written in? Do you have access to the code and can make changes that way, or are you just trying to resize images and hex edit things inside resource files or exe/dlls etc (eg x and y offsets)?
Thanks pyrorob, I'll give it a whirl, and I'll be sure and post if I have any thoughts.
Okay, so I can't get it to install. Says "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or settign cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions." I used dotfred's taskmanager to kill cprog, and put the phone into airplane mode. Any ideas?

yes, i understand that, the only thing is, i didn't just open a thread and waited, i sent out a bunch of pm's to different people that i know knew the specifics of what to do and how to do it right and no one even had the decency to even reply. its like people think of this as some sort of competition..
yeah if you just follow the same steps to uninstall as you did to install then youll be fine. basically the dll's for the canvas have a bunch of positioning resources and thru lots of trial and error i managed to get things to where they are now.
I checked out your canvas on my Touch Pro.
The only think I noticed (except of the back button on the top right corner you mentioned) is that the left soft button "All People" does not work for me.
When I press it it changes from "All People" to "Contacts" and Manila crashes in the Background.
Any hints?
I have the same sig as above and dialer is working great! Only few bugs i see are what was mentioned already, especially with the all people left sofkey. Another is when you place a call the top taskbar is gone, small rezizing issue exactly the same as with rhodium dialer. If u hit keypad the taskbar comes back then tap call status to go back and the taskbar stays. Maybe get it to stay from the get go when you first make a call? All the features seem to work and landscape seems smoother then rhodium with it. Sorry cant help you with the technical side but always a happy beta tester. Just work out the few kinks, give it a makeover, good to go!!!

P.S.
One more thing. If you're in landscape already say writint a text message, then press the call button to bring up the dialer, the screen goes into portrait mode with the dialer while it should be in landscape. Then you have to close the hardware keyboard, reopen, now dialer is in landscape.
Bluetooth Volume???
Can anyone test this dialer with their bluetooth device? I dont have one handy right now. Just to make a call, try to adjust the volume up/down using the 2 hardkeys on the side of the phone to see if it works? I know on the rhodium dialer it doesnt change the actual volume on the headset, just shows on the volume volume is changing but does nothing. Hope its not the case with this dialer or can be fixed if it is? Thanks

ok first one, the all people soft key, im testing the dialer on a phone with manila 2.5 and when you hit that key it goes into the manila contacts, the dialer originally is from a manila 2.5 leo rom so it might only work 100% with a manila 2.5 rom..
the top taksbar has to do with the repositioning by the phcanvga if it doent move up the incall screen and cut off the top then the buttons at the bottom will be cut. sometimes the phcanvga doesn't reposition properly at first so you can do a few things like switch to landscape and back, goto contacts and back or close and reopen it and it will reposition itself.
yeah and it going back to portrait? well as far as i know there isnt a whole lot of landscape support with the leo since it doesn't have a hard keyboard so i guess thats the way htc programed this?..
second one, try putting in this reg key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume]
"EnableAdjustHSVolume"=dword:00000001
see if that works
Apart from the 'back' key issue noted, no problems on my current ROM build. Have installed, unistalled and reinstalled without issue following Pyrorob's instructions. Conference calling working well (my mates like being part of the beta test!). Great job and Thanks!

Oh i see, didnt know it was from a 2.5 version. That makes sense then. You think you can make a version to work with 2.1 manila though? I have no idea how hard that would be, just talking about getting the left softkey going for 2.1 manila. Ill have my jawbone 3 later today. Ill try it out of the box first to see if it works with the volume hardkeys on the phone, if that doesnt work then ill plug in the reg edit you provided. Still, this is the fastest port for a very nice vga dialer for our phones, WOW! Cant believe it took them forever to port tachi dialer and took u a few days and this one is wayyyyy better then tachi! Great work and would happily donate to you or wherever you would like me too for this and all your great work pyrorob, thank you!!!
Umm
Well out of the box the headset volume cannot be changed by the device with this dialer. I looked in the registry using the regular reg edit app thats cooked into nrg's rom and also tried using the one that came with sktools (which is more friendly i think!), neither have that entry.
I go to current user, control panel, volume, only entries here are all one worded, nothing like what you described and nothing with a standard setting of 0000001 or anything like that. Ill get a screen shot for u if that helps but looking in the reg i cant find it. Do i need to "add" the reg entry u described since its not there? If i do, how do i add it? Never done that before.
So far the only bug that I have found appart from the already mention ones, is a sliding bar on the right corner of the dialer when I open it up. The only way that i have found to make it disapear its by fliping the phone so the dialer goes to landscape and fliping it back to portrait and no more silder bar, and by closing the dialer with the end button instead of the x. Appart from that is working really great, so far no connecting delays ussing slide 2 answer. I'll be using it a couple of days more to test it out to see if anything else pops up. Hell, i like it so much i'll keep it until a new flash or a update from you pyrorob.
I think the only thing that needs its the energy theme.
Geat job man!
This dialer is like a God send to us, its soo good! Tested out the slide to answer/ignore and works flawless, no lag or sticking like rhodium! This is like an upgraded rhodium dialer for US users who dont have video call, its great. Love how theres no annoying bluetooth icon on the taskbar either when bluetooth is enabled with this dialer, huge plus for me! Hate having useless icons on the taskbar. Duh i know bluetooth is on cus i turned it on, why do i need an icon up there to remind me? If u can just make some finishing touches, skin the hell out of it to match energy rom, Golden, seriously golden here!!!

So far the only bug that I have found appart from the already mention ones, is a sliding bar on the right corner of the dialer when I open it up. The only way that i have found to make it disapear its by fliping the phone so the dialer goes to landscape and fliping it back to portrait and no more silder bar, and by closing the dialer with the end button instead of the x. Appart from that is working really great, so far no connecting delays ussing slide 2 answer. I'll be using it a couple of days more to test it out to see if anything else pops up.

What sliding bar is this? Are you talking about the top right corner wheres theres a grey box with a black arrow distorted pointing left? Thats the back button which would be nice if it can be skinned good or resized (looks fine in landscape as well as everything else, just not so much when receiving a call but no biggie!). Other then that, i have no idea what you're talking about? Can u provide a screen shot maybe?

No man, i know the back button, it's not that. It a sliding up/down bar, the one that appears whe you flip it to landscape. It appears when i close the dialer pressing the x button and open it up again with the send button and if i flip it to landscape when flip back to portrait the bar stays, have to flip it back to make it go away. Sory can't post screen shots I'm at work, plus don't know how to take a screen shot from the phone.
Is there any way to set speed dial for this phone? search by can't find it
You could:
1. Add a contact to your favorites
2. Put a shortcut to "Call Direct" that contact right on a home screen
If you want the dialer to have an option like "long press #2 to dial a person" then you might need to use a different dialer.
Ok. But somenone tells me that is possible to have speed dial with a long press on a dial number (3 for example), and configuring the name of the contact taht you want to call. But that does not work for me...
No. You just can add Favorite People on the homescreen. This option miss for me. HTC have the best Call Options.
I don't really mind having no speed dial, I haven't used it much on my previous phone anyway.
With, I don't know what you call it, when typing the numbers corresponding to letters, the contacts get displayed (I think HTC called it smart dial a long time ago), and the call history right there I find I'm not using speed dials at all.
I'm not a heavy call user though...
Speed dial is not available on Android 2.3.x. It will be on ICS
You should use another dialer. I recommend DW Dialer (& DW Contact)
On home screen, add a shortcut to your contact number. Then just press it to dial.

Thanks! While I wait for ICS , I'l use the favorites.
One alternative option until ICS arrives:
Try swipepad and add the options to directly call to these contacts.
Then you can, with a single movement, even without needing to open the Phone application, call them.
I just discover the application. Not sure regarding performance impacts but the usability it gives is great.
It does have speed dial. Just long press a number then set it up.
