When I first installed windows 8 I was really confused with all the metro app icons, when i clicked on them nothing happened. I started thinking they were fake and were placed there for looks. I searched all over the place and found that if your resolution is not high enough the apps wont load.
so, here is a regedit i found a long time ago to activate 1024x768 and 1152x864. seems like 1024x768 is the lowest resolution that is needed for metro apps to work.
1) Run regedit
reg edit can be found in the windows folder
2) highlight the higest tree level (Computer)
3) Search for “Display1_DownScalingSupported” and changed it from “0″ to “1″
3b)some have reported that there may be more then one entry that needs to be changed so make sure to search the entire registry
4) Restart the system
5) Enjoy the two new resolutions: 1024×768 px and 1152×864
the metro apps will work now.
I'm using a lenovo s10-3t but this should work on many other computers.
I could just change the resolution in the normal Windows 7 way...
Me to but my problem is that I have an eeepc 1000h which supports max 1024x600, what I have to do in this case...
I have a Acer netbook and have the same problem. I did try the apps with an external monitor which worked fine.

You have to hack the registry to enable a higer resolution, I created a reg file for you, download it, double click on reg file, click yes and restart, now check your resolution settings.If this dosen't work try this:In regedit search with ctrl+f for Display1_DownScalingSupported and change the value from 0 to 1 and keep searching until you reach at the end of registry because are 4 or 7 with "Display1_DownScalingSupported" name, restart and check your resolution settings.
All the best

yes you can change it that way, but for me and many others the max will be 1024x600 and we won't be able to go anyhigher with out the regedit. So after the regedit those 2 higher resolution options will be available. then we will be able switch to them "in the normal windows 7 way."
I think this problem is prominent on smaller laptops or netbooks that have10in screens or smaller.
hi,i have lenovo S10-3t too,,,when i have a resolution higher than 1024x600,metro apps working,,,but on original resolution 1024x600 non working,,,is it possible that metro apps will working on this original resolution ?thankx

They wont work on the original resolution, from what I have read. Maybe in the beta release or the final they will support a lower resolution. But as of right now this is the only way.

What kind of computer did u install it on?
I installed the reg file and restarted but the highest resolution I can select is still 1024 by 600. I am doing this on an ideapad s10-2. I opened reg editor and found display1...it had a value of 1.Is there anything else I can try?

Yes I restarted. I did ctrl+f and searched for Display1_DownScalingSupported. It only gave me one result. When you say search the entire registry is that what you mean?
Worked perfect on my acer aspire one zg5. After I finally got the display drivers to install.
Installed reg file from this thread. Didnt do the trick. Searched registry and found 3 more, changed to 1, rebooted and bam extra screen resolutions.
If anybodys having problems installing drivers for acer AOA150(zg5) pm me and Ill link to the proper drivers. Tried a bunch and this one is the only one to work.

After the first result hit again ctrl+F and do another search,change the value and repeat this step until you get a message which says you reached at the end of the registry (something like that).

Hey all,
Can somebody confirm that they have had the Uni working with the AKU_3.2 VGA files in the ftp site and jwright's 3.2 ROM?
I've been running the i-mate default ROM on VGA for almost a year now and decided to switch over to the new 3.2 ROM a few days ago. I don't use ozVGA but use the registry hack straight up with the VGA files and VGA system apps.
But for some reason, I can't get all my icons displaying. I've run sdkcerts countless times, hit the power button waiting for 5 seconds before soft resetting, done multiple reboots changing up the order of sdkcerts and vga file copying... I just can't seem to get it to display all the icons correctly.
I know that I'm missing my volume and my cel reception indicator on the top bar at the very least. I CAN see my wifi icons, clock and magic button icons. On another post I found somebody whose screenshot matched mine and the suggestion was to install the AKU_3.2 VGA files again. I've done that alot.
Any ideas would be appreciated. The Uni is significantly better at VGA.
Thanks.
Hmmmm, something strange is definitely going on... I've installed the original ozVGA cab now and even that has not worked. Same problem, it's not loading the top bar icons.... just like if I had not installed those 96dpi resource files into the Windows directory.
Can anybody confirm or deny that ozVGA works with the AKU 3.2 rom?
And mvrTrueVGA is the winner. Why it seemed to work and the other didn't is beyond me...
So I've compared all the files that mvrTrueVGA installs to the VGA files that are supplied in the AKU_2 zip. Essentially, they are all different (which honestly doesn't say much) but there are some interesting additions.
There are new files.
mismde.96.dll
trares0407.96.dll
Plus two interesting things. First off, I was using Total commander to search for all files that were *.96.*
It found two other files which had some interesting properties...
rires.96.dll -- this file I can see on my pocket pc but can't see it through activesync explorer
shellresapps.96.dll -- this file I can't copy from the PPC to look at it. Activesync complains that it cannot convert it.
Just some interesting info in my investigations.
Hi,
I wanted to try out VGA myself. Would it be too much to ask for a step by step instruction list for "beginers"? Attached files would also make it wonderful.
Thanks very much.
Me too wanna try vga with AKU 3.2 if it's totally safe .
www.jaml.com/MvRTrueVGA/
seems safe to me.
Been using it for a while.this is literally just a cab install, it even puts a toggle link in start>programs
pretty idiot-proof, Even I managed that one....

Thanks very much. I did not even notice those. Keep the suggestions coming. VGA seems better now even though it is still small.
I copied the files: power, backlight, and microphone mui's to my SD card ran them and got a nice looking files without distortion, I copied the files as suggested to the /Windows folder and did a soft reset. But if I access the power, backlight, and microphone through the Settings Tab, I still get the old distorted image. Is this the way it should be? Am I doing something wrong?

Hi,
it seems like Navigon tried to implement WVGA resulution in their latest version of Mobile Navigator MN 7 v7.3.2 ... however, unsuccessful :-(
To make it work, unzip the attached "BinaryConfig.XML" and replace it on the device in the "\navigon\" directory... other files don't need to be replaced any more.
This fix applies only to v7.3.2!
regards jan
EDIT: I've replaced the first file by 3 others... the first is identical to the original posted here earlier, the others "stretch" mn7 to a mixture between vga and wvga, and to fullscreen wvga. Backgound (in German language can be found here)
to sum that up:
-people who like the version without stretching take the first file,
-people who like higher use of the screen and still want the full functionality (in landscape mode) take the 2nd file,
-people who like full-screen with restrictions to functionality (in landscape mode some software-internal scroll arrows can not be accessed) take the third file
regards jan
Indeed. The 7.3.2 did not launch and I had to soft reset my Touch HD.
Thanks for your files !
Do you know what are the changes brought by 7.3.2, otherwise than the WVGA resolution failed attempt ?
Does not work good.
But good Try.
Cool
Working perfect for me

Hallo,
how did you get the Touch HD running on 7.3.2?
I also run this config, but my Touch HD don`t recognize the internal GPS. What will I have to do that the MobileNavigator will find GPS???
Hello!
I´ve got the problem, when i want to start the MN7.3.2 in landscape mode, the mn7 goes for approx. 5seconds to horizontal mode, but starts in landscape. Then it rotates to landscape, but the mn7 is cut to the left half.
Has anybody an idea?
I use MaryOne ROM from HelloNasty, so it rotates for itself.

if you haven't changed any gps settings on the hd itself and if you don't use any port splitter like serilot or glopus, it should work with the following manual gps settings in navigon setup:
GPS Type: Internal GPS only
GPS-Port: Com4: ActiveDevice
GPS Baudrate: 4800
TMC: None
at least that works for me...
good luck

You have to make sure that the screen is in landscape mode (which means not only hold the device in landscape, but have an open window (i.e. file explorer) which actually is displayed in landscape) BEFORE you start MN7, and it should stay like that all the time. MN7 gets "confused" when you change screen orientation during operation. maybe you should exclude it from your g-sensor app.
hope that helps...

Update to MN7.3.2
I Have problems updating to 7.3.2.

HD switching off
Hi all,
Since I have installed navigon MN7, my HD does not switch off automatically anymore.. That's very bad for the battery. Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks !
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446487&page=43 (hope this becomes a link), post #423. The hard reset may not be necessary; I did it because I wanted to clean the device of any unexpected effects which I was afraid would have been created by MN7 using the "wrong" xmls. Sorry I tried both on my PC (the installation program) and on my HTC HD (my trail version) but coud not find a menu option saying which version of MN7 I have!
Thank you hausen, it works perfectly on my Diamond2!
Hi all,
today i've bought a Navigon Mobile 7 for my HTC HD2, installed, updated via Freshstuff and till this morning my NM7 wouldnt start at all...i modified it with the files provided here (.xml) tried with soft and hard reset, uninstalled Copilot Live 8 (thought was a kind of conflict). The manual say:
- use 2 gb sd micro card to install the software..i've used 4 gb and 8gb...maybe is mandatory???
the program start and remain freezed fro few second (without any welcome screen, just the pda freezed...) then i checked in the task manager and i saw was in run using 2.49 mb of resources and i had to stop it few time...
now...any solution about? or i have to be again a bad guy and stop to buy software but just have to keep download cracked software?
Thank you all for the answers,

Testet it and changed the resolution too.
I can start the game, select a character but when I come to ingame screen, I can't see my character and it seems that the graphic is messed up.
Hoping for any development
for those who can't find their original diablo discs - just google the requested .dll

I have tried to make the changes on the TXT file in order to be able to run the game on the TOUCH HD. However I do think something was made wrong by me, as I can not start the game with the proper resolution -600*480-. So, if someone could attach the TXT file with the changes I would appreciate it very much.

Change you file with one enclosed! Have fun
if that's the case, why not change the setting in the config file directly to 800x480?
I change, but game still in 480*640, cause realised just for 240*320 and 480*640! So that!
Okay, so i've searched all over and i can't seems to find anyone else shared this tips before. My apology if i made a mistake on my searching though
So i picked this up from the X1 thread quite a while ago, can't remember who posted it first. This tweak should make your screen a lot more responsive and you dont need to press the screen hard the whole time to do stuff.
1. Get MS Compact Framework 3.5 Here
2. Get Schaaps Advance Config Tool Here
3. Scroll down to HTC TouchFLo
4. Change the pressure threshold to custom -> Click -> Change the value to 999999999 (nine 9s)
5. Change the finger pressure to 999999999 (nine 9s)
6. Done, soft reset.
Your screen should be (almost) as good as capacitive screen now (except for the multi touch of course)
cheers.
p.s All this was done in stock Touch Pro 2 ROM WWE Asia 1.19.707.2
What I do is go into a registry editor and go to
HKLM\Drivers\TouchPanel\PressureThreshold =65000 (the higher, the more sensitive)
That's good enough for me! But for those who don't like the reg tweaks, it's good that you posted that.
yea, this is for those people who doesn't like dwelling into registry (my kind of people )
enjoy it folks

am curious of that myself. mine was set to 53 . i took the plunge and set it to 65 and noticed no ill effects so far
Decreasing the value is the way to go . I've got mine working with a value of 0 and screen responsiveness (particularly with on-screen keyboard) is tremendous! No more missed swipes and touches. In fact, the screen is showing up the slowness of the TP2 in certain applications (caches on-screen key presses where program eventually catches up with what you entered).

please explain how decreasing the screen's sensitivity increases its responsiveness to touch. the whole concept is counter intuitive.

Weird I know, but I've been always told that closer to 0 is more sensitive.
So whats the verdict on if either increasing or decreasing the value increases sensitivity?
Also, I've never messed with my registry on a windows mobile device, and honestly my expirience with it on XP and earlier has been relatively minimal. Are there any toturials on how to open a reg editor in windows mobile? If I rememebr correctly on XP machines you go to start>run>conf

Don't be afraid of the registry! I use MobileRegistryEditor. You can edit the registry from your desktop with your phone plugged in via USB. Viewing the registry on a laptop screen vs. a phone IMO helps to eliminate mistakes and is much quicker.

well i tried both settings and i must say that decreasing it to 0 really did increase the sensitivity.
like i said earlier it is counter intuitive, but it is a noticable difference.

EDIT: its start > run > regedit
and the registry key is called "PressureThreshold"
Threshold means "the smallest detectable sensation"
so in fact, the closest the value to "0", the better (or at least that is what makes sense)
BTW, I do not have an HTC phone, nor Windows Mobile phone, .. but i am planing to buy Touch Pro2, so i read this topic, and felt like explaining the whole thing from an "English" point of view, Lol
cheers
wow, now im confused. I've only done the tweak via the advance config,never via registry. Can it be different?
Before i changed it the value of my pressure threshold was 60000 something, i cant remember, while finger pressure was 0. When i had my xperia,none if this value would shows 0. It seems that both of this value changes if you do the screen calibration thing.
oh and happy new years folks

It shouldn't make a difference, in the configuration i assume you have to touch the screen so the phone calibrate your threshold right?
so i assume you should touch it "lightly" so the phone recognizes your threshold as light, and eventually be more responsive.
EDIT: i have found this, it is related to Touch Pro, ... I dont know wither it applies to Touch Pro2 or not
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=56412
As i said before, I am just talking common sense, nothing from real experience with the actual device as i do not own one, ... yet
happy holiday season!
is this a 6.5 or a 6.1 tweak?
because with 6.5 I discovered that GWE setting for touch it best set @1 rather than 0. this way the htc drivers are doing the work and not the ms...
as for the biotouch setting to zero, this would be turning the htc driver off and just using the ms driver.
(this is my assumption that the two different sets of drivers conflict)
its different? i did it on stock Touch Pro 2 6.1 ROM. Sorry about the missing info,i'll put it up on the first post.

I'm currently testing the "999999999" and it seems pretty sensitive. Will test on a couple more apps before trying th "0" input.

Well I found the registry tweak I posted (post2) from a different forum. I found that the stock ROM's settings had the decimal value at 15000. When I brought it up (as the instructions said the higher the better) to 65000, I noticed that screen sensitivity increased.
I'll try "0" later on.
As for the Advanced Config settings, the Pressure Threshold setting in Advanced Config controls the registry setting I posted in post2.
UPDATE: In HKLM\Drivers\Touch Panel\PressureThreshold, in the Decimal Value I tried "0" for 2 hours. I then switched to "100000" for 2 hours. IMO, "100000" was way more sensitive for me; "0" was very resisitive to my motions.
Hmmm ... I have mobile 6.5 wwe t-mobile tp2
Navigate to or search for:
HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold
and
HKLM/Software/OEM/TFLOSettings/FingerPressure
If you wana test how mobile figures out how to set it ..
goto: settings / system / screen / align screen
and run the alignment test ..
If I PRESS REALLY HARD EVERYTIME I get ..
fingerpressure 22
pressurethreshold 48
If I PRESS REALLY SOFT EVERYTIME I get ..
fingerpressure 26
pressurethreshold 57
So ...
If I Set BOTH to 10 it should make it harder to push / scroll ???
and I Set BOTH to 100 it should make it easier to push / scroll ???
Because I change them and it doesnt really seem to make a difference
What do you guys get when you run the screen test and let mobile figure it out ?

I didn't do a screen test, but for the set both to 10/100:
Make a greater difference. Example: set both to 10. Then for comparison, set both to 10000. With the greater difference between 10 and 10000, you should see a greater difference in the behavior of the screen.
EDIT: I did the "test" for the screen.
Results (hard test):
Finger Pressure: 21
Pressure Threshold: 48
Results (soft test):
Finger Pressure: 24
Pressure Threshold: 54
So I guess, the higher the numbers, the more sensitive it would have to be?

yeah of course, you need root access, then use Root Explorer (or similar app) to edit the sys.txt located in /data/data/com.navngo.javaclient/
and then you need to have this in the sys.txt, replace the old part with this:
Code:
[rawdisplay]
driver=engine
screen_xy="800_480:1280x670/720x1230"
^^ That will keep your android top bar visible, both in portrait and landscape.
If you would want fullscreen, then use this:
Code:
[rawdisplay]
driver=engine
screen_xy="800_480:1280x720/720x1280:fullscreen"
Good luck!
EDIT: above edits are for when you are running your android OS WITHOUT the 3-dot button bar.
Also, you need to make sure you made certain edits to multimode.ini (not described in my post), or perhaps you have an apk that already contains those edits to multimode.ini.

It does start up at the moment, but closes (without warning/error) in about 5 seconds every time I try to run it. Resolution shouldn't be the problem. Any idea what could be the cause?

Try to rename your DCIM folder on your sdcard to something else... there might be some weird or corrupt image there (don't ask me why that has anything to do with igo though)

This was the problem, After renaming the DCIM folder, everything is working just fine. Strange...
Does anyone else find this extremely heavy? We have the best phone on the market (graphics-wise) and the bloody interface stutters. Igo is obviously obsolete.

You're kinda right, but it's the best navigation software for android hands down...
I think the problem is more in the navigation software than in the htc one x. Sygic is also not smooth at all on the htc one x. That's also the reason why I would love to see tomtom for android, but even though they promised it for this summer, I still haven't seen it.
I'm still having trouble configuring it, I tried a lot of multimode.ini / sys.txt modifications. I either get a 1280x720 not supported error, or it closes itself after a few seconds (renaming DCIM does nothing). I'm on stock ROM, not rooted, so I can only edit multimode.ini inside the data.zip archive. The .apk is supposedly made for 1280x720, but maybe I should use another one?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Still, Waze works great and so does Google Maps, and the latter uses bloody 3D Satellite imaging.
The capability exists, it's just that most big-name navigation software (Igo, Sygic, etc) haven't really rebuilt their core engines from the bottoms up in ages, and rely on decade-old technologies.

Do you have old pictures from another phone in DCIM folder? I had old photos from my old phone, until I moved them then iGO worked.
Apparently, photos with Geographic data will appear in the iGO map as POI, so that might be the problem.
