Just a quick post to toss up a few hacks I’ve found and use for the XV6700. A comment on one of my previous posts asked how to do the wifi + phone hack, so for those of you that don’t know how, here’s how you do it.
Download PHM Regedit
Go to the key HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\SERVICES\WirelessMGR and change “MutexFlag” from 1 to 0.
soft reset. Poof, you’ll now be able to have wifi on while the phone is on without any issues.
Speed up switching between Portrait & Landscape Modes
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\
Change limit from 8192 to 16384 or 32768 (experiment to see which works best for you)
soft reset
Enable BT & USB DUN
Go to the phone application and dial ##3328873 (FEATURE) and hit dial
it will ask for your unlock code, so enter 000000 (six zeroes)
EPST will popup and you’ll see two entries: Enable Wmodem and Enable BT DUN. Highlight each in turn and click edit on the bottom right, change both to enabled. Push ok and it will prompt you to soft reset. After soft resetting, you can then dialup via Bluetooth or USB cable. In order to use the USB cable, you’ll need the CDMA USB modem drivers which are on the 6700 product CD under \OEM\APPS\Drivers\CDMA USB Modem. Or download them here: CDMA USB modem drivers. It comes with a dialer program that you don’t necessarily need to use. However, if you’re using the USB cable, you have to start the wmodem program on your pocketPC to keep it from trying to activesync. It’s located in \windows\wmodem.exe. Run this before you connect the handheld to your PC via USB. Then you can just setup a DUN connection in windows to dial #777, use your 10-digit number @vzw3g.com as your username and vzw as the password. Once the connection is setup (assuming you’re using a manual connection in windows)
click on the “setup” button in the connection under USB CDMA modem and change the COM port speed to whatever the highest setting you have is. After that, you should be able to dial up just fine. Worked great for me.
Change softkeys on “Today” screen
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\keys\112 — left
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\keys\113 — right
You may not have a 113, but you can just make the 113 identical to 112 and change the “open” command. The value for “Default” controls what is displayed on the screen. For those curious, messaging is “tmail.exe”.
Get rid of SMS Delivery acknowledgements (popup and text msg)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\SMS
change “delivery ack” from 1 to 0. Now no more stupid delivery confirmation text msgs clogging up your inbox. Note that this sms is only received when you send an sms to another VZW user.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
click on “Inbox” then Edit, new key. Name the new key “Settings”
Click on “Settings” and then edit, new string value. Value Name should be “SMSNoSentMsg”, Value Data should be “1″.
That’s most of the hacks I’ve done to my particular phone, though I do have a few more I could post if anyone actually wants them.
