Hi all,
Special thanks to Faria for helping keep this up to date and correctly formatted.
Since the forum is becoming more and more active with new (Rhodium) users joining us on a daily basis, I thought it would benefit all if I started a thread to collect all the current and future tweaks and enhancements for our Rhodiums.
I'll update the Wiki weekly with any that are posted in this thread.
Review videos and Info Here (Thanks to Quarintus)
Thanks to all contributors
Please keep the thread clean and pure for this purpose, I don't want to be digging through comments to find the enhancements.
Word of warning the HDTweak app does work for a lot of settings on the Rhodium, however there are reports that some functions can cause your device to not boot or loose sounds............. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I will not provide a link to it here, as it won't be long before we have our own Rhodium Tweak app.

Manilla StartMenu (Provided by LRC)
Code:
HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu
EnableManilaStartMenu = 1
(orginal TF3D startmenu) / 0(old WM startmenu)
is not needed.....
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila
Manila://programs.page.hidden = 0
is not needed.....

GPS
(Tested & provided by DGH)
A. With Advanced config nel menu GPS
disable A-GPS
disable GPS logging
logfile name must be empty
old logfile name must be empty
maximum size of logfile must be 0
delete the files :
\windows\GPSLogFile.txt and \windows\GPSLogFileBack.txt
With those changes car usage will be quite perfect
B. Then edit registry
Under: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\
Drivers\GpsOneDevice\PollInterval -> 100 (default is 1000)
Drivers\InputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
Drivers\OutputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
Drivers\SleepOnNoData -> 100 (default is 1000)
Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize -> 512 (by default not present, you have to create it)
With those tweaks pedestrian usage will be much better but not perfect.

Bluetooth: Receive files without entering passkey(Thanks Jzhyok)
By default Bluetooth settings, when a device which is not on your paired devices list is going to send you a file by BT OBEX Push, the BT manager requires a passkey that is annoying and useless. Yet, you can't disable this in the normal control panel.
So, here is the solution:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\BTConfig\Servi ces\0002]
"Encryption"=dword:00000000
"Authorization"=dword:00000000
"Encryption"
0: No passkey is needed.
1(def): Requires passkey if the file is sending by devices NOT in the paired list.
"Authorization":
0: Receive all files automatically without asking.
1(def): Ask for each file if you wanna receive(you have to choose whether to receive or not).

Wifi allways on thanks Jzhyok
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms]
"HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended"=dword:00000001
*********************************************************
To enable 2 way recording just change:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]"VocRecPath"=dword:00000002
and you'll be able to record with any software.
If you want to use WM6 native recording (WAW only, on \my documents\notes, manual activation: during a call hit "record" on call menu) create:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AudioRecording]"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Voice]"EnableCallRecordMenuItem"=dword:00000001"AllowInCallRecording"=dword:00000001
Don't forget to turn off (and on again ) the device after you modify/create the keys.

Any way to edit the stereo bluetooth settings? I used to use Advanced Config for that, but it doesn't seem to work for the Touch Pro 2. Probably because of the new bluetooth stack.
Sound will come through my Sony DS980 headphones, but the quality isn't really good. How to raise the bitpool?

Managed to improve soundquality by adding DWORD 'LineSpeed' to HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\AV\ with a value of 320. My audio experience is now much better.

Just as a warning, I'm not sure what I did but after messing around with some settings, everytime I made or received a call and it connected, I could not hear the other party and vice versa. Fixed this by setting all the phone volume settings in HDtweak back to default and uninstalling HD tweak - I later reinstalled it but didn't touch the volume settings and it works fine now.
Don't know what I messed with but becareful as something caused my call functions to stop working properly.
I had to do hard reset after using some HDTweak features - system didnt boot - got stucked on green loading screen. So watch out. I have no idea which specific feature caused that.
Change Program Launcher Read Only Shortcuts
to free up the start menu icons that are there by default and not removable you need to change
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/0/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/1/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/2/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/3/IsReadOnly
Change this value from 1 to a 0 and you can then edit their shortcuts.

Did the same myself, I turned the Volume up from 100db to High - stopped it from working.
got a quick question wondering if any1 knows the solution
when you go thru the tf3d menu and you get to the messages tab it shows the last text you've recieved
is there a way to turn this off, i.e it not showing the last text recieved but a plain icon or something else

In relation to this, does anyone know how to decrease the time limit for when the new sms icon dissapears?
IE: I noticed if I get a new message it shows a (1) next to the message icon. I flip to it, read it quick and flip out. the (1) remains there unless I leave the message screen on for a few seconds before moving on, problem is I'm used to reading messages alot quicker than that.
or at least I believe that's what causing it.
Bluetooth: Receive files without entering passkey
By default Bluetooth settings, when a device which is not on your paired devices list is going to send you a file by BT OBEX Push, the BT manager requires a passkey that is annoying and useless. Yet, you can't disable this in the normal control panel.
So, here is the solution:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\BTConfig\Servi ces\0002]
"Encryption"=dword:00000000
"Authorization"=dword:00000000
"Encryption"
0: No passkey is needed.
1(def): Requires passkey if the file is sending by devices NOT in the paired list.
"Authorization":
0: Receive all files automatically without asking.
1(def): Ask for each file if you wanna receive(you have to choose whether to receive or not).
Does anyone know which is the latest version of Advanced Config and where can I find it.
Searching the forum, gave me some results, but I don't know if the versions I found are compatible with Rhodium or not...
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Advanced Config Tool
Hello guys,
Earlier, I thought of playing old dos games in X1 using DOSBOX.
Some of my favorite DOS games was
Heretic
Descent
Dave
Skyroads
Commander Keen
and specially Lemmings!!
All of them can be found in DOSGAMESARCHIVE.com
Anyway, my problem is .. SPEED.
So I thought maybe we could help each other to make things faster specially on 3D games.
here's my dosbox config
PHP:
# This is the configurationfile for DOSBox 0.73.
# Lines starting with a # are commentlines.
# They are used to (briefly) document the effect of each option.

# fullscreen: Start dosbox directly in fullscreen.
# rotateright: Alternate screen rotation.
# mapperfile: File used to load/save the key/event mappings from.
# kbdtoolbar: First toolbar.
# gametoolbar: Second toolbar.
# settoolbar: Third toolbar. Note: frameskip and cycles values are drawn there.
# usescancodes: Avoid usage of symkeys, might not work on all operating systems.
# sensitivity: Mouse sensitivity.
# touchpadmouse: Emulate mouse with stylus moves on screen. Can fix mouse behavior in games that expect only relative mouse movement.
# clickms: When in touchpad mode, left-click is sent after single-tap. This sets the delay in milliseconds between emulated mouse button down and up events.
# rightclickdelay: Touchpad mode. If you tap and hold stylus for this milliseconds, right-click will be send instead of left. 0 to disable.
# dpadmouse: Emulate mouse with D-Pad. Make sure to set corresponding mapper values for this to work. Up, down, left and right keys are autorotated.
# forcetoolbar: Sometimes where's no space on screen to fit even a part of toolbar. This forces it to display. Also a key and a zone can be set for toggling.
# forcetransparent: Forced toolbar area, overlapping active screen part will be semitransparent.
# forcezone: X, Y, width and height of 'force toolbar display' tapzone. No spaces please. See also hand_force_tlbr setting in mapper.txt
# forceheight: Forced toolbar will have this height.

# This value is best left at its default to avoid problems with some games,
# though few games might require a higher value.
# There is generally no speed advantage when raising this value.

[render]
# frameskip: How many frames DOSBox skips before drawing one.
# aspect: Do aspect correction, if your output method doesn't support scaling this can slow things down!.

# 'fixed #number' will set a fixed amount of cycles. This is what you usually need if 'auto' fails.
# (Example: fixed 4000)
# 'max' will allocate as much cycles as your computer is able to handle

my problem is messed up keys ie. left right up down
but so far i only tried faceoff (hockey) maybe i need to try some newer game
yeap. I hope every one can share their thoughts.
tried nhl94 runs slow as hell keys are messed up and lacking "ALT", "ALT_gr" keys
tried to edit mapper.txt but no success with keys
tried to fine tune dosbox.conf no major progress made
heretic and hexen have been released native for pocketpc
lemmings too
that's counter progressive but I accept that.
anyway, I still want to have a possibility to make DOSBOX fast when playing games.

# rightclickdelay: Touchpad mode. If you tap and hold stylus for this milliseconds, right-click will be send instead of left. 0 to disable.
# dpadmouse: Emulate mouse with D-Pad. Make sure to set corresponding mapper values for this to work. Up, down, left and right keys are autorotated.
# forcetoolbar: Sometimes where's no space on screen to fit even a part of toolbar. This forces it to display. Also a key and a zone can be set for toggling.
# forcetransparent: Forced toolbar area, overlapping active screen part will be semitransparent.
# forcezone: X, Y, width and height of 'force toolbar display' tapzone. No spaces please. See also hand_force_tlbr setting in mapper.txt
# forceheight: Forced toolbar will have this height.

# language: Select another language file.
# machine: The type of machine tries to emulate.
# Possible values: hercules, cga, tandy, pcjr, ega, vgaonly, svga_s3, svga_et3000, svga_et4000, svga_paradise, vesa_nolfb, vesa_oldvbe.
# captures: Directory where things like wave, midi, screenshot get captured.
# memsize: Amount of memory DOSBox has in megabytes.
# This value is best left at its default to avoid problems with some games,
# though few games might require a higher value.
# There is generally no speed advantage when raising this value.

[render]
# frameskip: How many frames DOSBox skips before drawing one.
# aspect: Do aspect correction, if your output method doesn't support scaling this can slow things down!.
# scaler: Scaler used to enlarge/enhance low resolution modes. If 'forced' is appended,the scaler will be used even if the result might not be desired.
# Possible values: qvga, vga.

# core: CPU Core used in emulation. auto will switch to dynamic if available and appropriate.
# Possible values: full, dynamic, simple.
# cputype: CPU Type used in emulation. auto is the fastest choice.
# Possible values: auto, 386, 386_slow, 486_slow, pentium_slow.
# cycles: Amount of instructions DOSBox tries to emulate each millisecond. Setting this value too high results in sound dropouts and lags. Cycles can be set in 2 ways:
# 'fixed #number' will set a fixed amount of cycles. This is what you usually need if 'auto' fails.
# (Example: fixed 4000)
# 'max' will allocate as much cycles as your computer is able to handle
# Possible values: fixed, max.
# cycleup: Amount of cycles to increase/decrease with keycombo.
# cycledown: Setting it lower than 100 will be a percentage.

I'm not sure about the X1, but on the LG Fathom, you just need to edit MAPPER.TXT in the DOSBOX folder and swap key_up, key_down etc
- so I think I'm right in saying that you need to swap
key_up <> key_right
key_down <> key_left
key_left <> key_up
key_right <> key_down
I know this post is from a while back, but I just want to post that for anyone looking. I am going to use Windows Mobile as long as I can and I hope others will continue to use it too!
