I think Crystal View sucks cause I dont know where my one had a stain and the stain cant be removed. I'm going to Lowyat to change to Martin Fields soon. Probably this weekend...

PiggyAikz,
All the brand you mentioned, I've only heard of innostream and I cant even guarantee its a good brand.

Sorry cause your questions all too deep. I've been using my Mini for 1 week but I've never experiment on it. I will probably go to lowyat to look up for some ppc software...

What difference does it make with the new screen protector? I dont think will have any visible difference lor. Its just that I'm currently using Crystal View and its stained, so change to Martin Fields la. I'll post up something if I really feel any diff.

What's the ROM version you guys are using? I'm using 1.03 and it seems quite buggy to me. So far, I've installed 3 applications:
- Lexisgoo Dictionary 2.0
- PocketMatch Pocket Music 3.23
- SPB Plus 2.5

On my Today's Screen [desktop alike], if I put in the PocketMusic and Lexisgoo taskbar [watever its called], my O2 Mini will hang, so I only put SPB Plus taskbar.

However, with only SPB Plus, whenever I send SMS, I write, then I click SEND, then I close the Messaging Application. Do you guys wait till you see the note: Message Sent only close the Messaging Application or do you close the Messaging Application right after you hit SEND?

I think I need a ROM upgrade or whatsoever. When I just close the Messaging Application after I hit SEND, the message get stuck in the Outbox. Could it be because of my Sim Card is too old? Do I need to change Sim Card?

links to the PHM Regedit as below:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
Since i'm sharing this link..might as well share with u all some registry hack that i learned from the other forums that i've been through  thumbup.gif

Install directory to your storage/storage card. To install your application/program to storage memory or storage card memory. Whenever you are about to install, there will one screen appear to ask you where to install the program. But not to forget to change it back the default value to 0 after the installation or u might encounter weird situation when you want to change your today screen and etc..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Microsoft Application Installer
Default: 0
Changed: 1


Fast graphic but consume memory
It can fasten and smoothen your OS graphic movement, but it will eat some of your program memory, not that much. You also can change it to 32768 instead of 16384 for greater result.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE
Default: 8192
Changed: 16384


To hide screen rotate icon There is a small PDA icon at your bottom right corner of your screen to change ur screen orientation from patriot to landscape and other way round. For me, its unnecessary, so you can hide it.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Service\ScreenRotate
ShowIcon value change to 0
Default: 1
Changed: 0


To turn off flashing LEDs and Vibration
It will turn off the blinking green/red/orange LED and the vibration mode. Some people will irritate by the blinking, especially when you're driving and sleep at night.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Builtin\AllLEDMgr
Default: 1
Changed: 0


Enable camera frame rate display
Camera frame rate will appear on the screen when u're using the camera
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CAMERA\AppDefSettings\General
Default: 0
Changed: 1


To set ur ringstones to run from Storage Card
Place all your downloaded ringtones from internal memory to storage card. Usefull for our small/ciput Mini memory.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring\Directory registry key
Default value: "\Windows\Rings\"
Change it to: "\Storage Card\<your preferred directory>\" (Note that "\" at the end is extremely important!!!)
Place those ringtones into \Storage Card\<your preferred directory>\


Enable hidden editor function in Album
This opens the additional hidden function in the ALBUM, allows u to edit ur photo, brightness, contrast, crop, etc. Album (opens Editor menu):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/Album/Disable Editor
Disable value changed to: 0


Unlimited 3gp Recording for mms settings
This will allow you to take unlimited recording time
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE\HTC\camera\AppDefSettings\P3
DWord Value called "EnableLimit", change it from 1 to 0.


To include both time and date in taskbar
You'll get time and short date on your right top of the screen, rather just displaying time. Meaning, you can remove your date item on your today screen. 
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\
Create a binary value named "TBOpt" and set its value to "13 00 00 00".
Soft-reset
Note: If u ever get bored of the date display, rid it by deleting the TBOpt key.
Phase 2: IF U NEED THE CHANGE THE DATE FORMAT:
i) Just go to Settings>Regional Settings>Date>Short Date
ii) Choose "dd-MMMM-yy" or whichever format u prefer.
iii) Click "ok".


Disabling "Message Sent" notification bubble
For those who hates the "Message Sent" notification after sending an SMS, this is the steps to remove the bubble notification...this is the STEP by STEP method to do it in case some of you guys dont get it right...
First, you will need to download a Registry Editor to help you do it...
using the Registry Editor, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
Next, click on Inbox (make sure the Inbox is highlighted) and select Edit, New Key
Name the New Key as "Settings"
Click on "Settings" (make sure the Settings is highlighted) and select Edit, New String Value
On "Value name:", key in SMSNoSentMsg and in "Value data", key in 1
Soft reset your device and test it with one SMS, and you will notice that the SMS Sent bubble is being disabled


Audio Tweak
Audio Tweak enhances the speaker performance of the O2 Mini (some devices have this set to a lesser priority and by using this you get better sound, if your device is already set to a high level you have no need for this)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\Priority256
Default: 110
Changed to: 80


Disable start menu animation This tweaking will eliminate the list of menu "drop-down animation" if u tab on Start/Flag icon.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\
AniType value change from 6 to 0.


SMS Notification On
This is different with message notification send, this will confirm you when message already recieve by receiver
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]
SMSDeliveryNotify = dword:00000001 ->0 if off
How to:
Create new Dword value name SMSDeliveryNotify
with decimal value data 1
Wacth for capital letter


Changing the Message Sent Notification Message
Change the default "MessageSent". Example "Pesan sudah di kirim"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\SMS]
Change the Value "MessageSent" to whatever you like.


NOTES
1. Please inform if there are errors.
2. PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTION to avoid trouble.
3. I/We are not responsible for any damages to your device.
4 Please soft-reset everytime you change the value to see the effect.

*
Forgive my n00bness, but after I download and installed the PHM Registry Editor:
1. I didnt get the choose whether to install on my O2 Mini Memory or Storage Card memory.
2. I cant find the software in my O2 Mini. I edit from my PC is it? There's supposed to be a PHM Registry Editor in START --> PROGRAMS, yes? Mine's not there.
3. My friend's O2 Mini, he changed his settings somehow and his camera mode does not have as much noise as mine, mine's default. Is the settings above the one my friend is probably using?

I have the ultimate n00b question. I downloaded PHM Registry Editor [msi file] and install through ActiveSync but it didnt work. It says the version is not for my O2 Mini.

So, I downloaded the ARM.CAB version. Sorry for my n00bishness, but how do I install a ARM.CAB folder into my O2 Mini?

I've been wanting to ask something so long but I kept forgetting. Is there a optimal setting for our memory usage? Under the Start --> Setting --> System tab --> Memory

Total Main Memory 57.41

Storage vs Program slider

Allocated for Storage is 28.70
Allocated for Program is 28.71

Is there any kind of optimal setting for this?

Just curious... I see a lot of people download their anime then watch in their O2 Mini... How do you do that?

I have only a 256Mb SD Card that was bundled along when I bought my Mini. Each anime is sized around 150 - 200Mb. Which probably means I can only put in 1 anime per SD Card.

My friend mentioned something about a coverter. I'm not sure what he said because I wasnt paying attention but I think I heard him saying something that's connected to your Mini and then transfer the movie from your PC to your Mini, the file size will automatically shrink to fit your SD Card... True ah?!

Or is it if my anime is 180Mb, transfer to my Mini's SD Card will also takes up 180Mb space?

I have a laptop so I dont need WiFi. GPRS is not THAT expensive either. Maxis charges is 0.10cent/Kb (peak hours), and 0.05cent/Kb (non-peak hours).

Anyway, bought my O2 Mini so many months, never have time to experiment with it's softwares. Can anyone tell me where I can buy metal/aluminium case for my O2 Mini? Decided not to sell liao la, no money change N90 also.

Rosemarie,
Aduiiii... Ask Cloud to get for you bah. He's working and if I'm not mistaken, you still studying right? Ask Cloud sponsor! Never wait ofr technology ler. The new one come out, the price would be off by a RM1k difference.


julchin_09,
