Guest st3ph3n Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Works a treat. Oh and he means it enables 54mbit Wireless on your Wizard. T-Mobile ship the Vario with it disabled. It's just a couple of simple registry tweeks that it installs for you. I hooked mine up to my router and it now says it's an 11g client type and not an 11b. Happy days.

Guest Morninglight Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Great! I was checking what is inside the cab, 2 files: HTCWIZ~1.000 Containing: CE4+ ‘ ‚ " * D ” t d } ‚ HTC Wizard Optimizer 1.0 DJVW \ %CE4% System GWE Menu ControlPanel Keybd StorageManager FATFS Filters fsreplxfilt Comm TNETWLN1 Parms CapNotify.lnk AniType EnableIndicator CacheSize EnableCache ReplStoreCacheSize dot11SupportedRateMaskG dot11SupportedRateMask Œ SSDK And the 2nd file: CAPNOT~1.001 Containing: 32#"\Windows\CapNotify.exe" I tried running the capnotify.exe from the \windows dir but that doesn't seems to do much.. does anyone know what it is needed for? The first file contains registrykeys, dot11SupportedRateMaskG and dot11SupportedRateMask are the interesting ones I think. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms The other ones are keys from other registry optimizations I think. Can someone verify what the dot11SupportedRateMask is set to on a out-of-the-box G enabled device? on my M3000 it is set to 1. After adding the key dot11SupportedRateMaskG with a DWORD value 1, the m3000 finds the AP but does not connect to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Morninglight Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 After running the cab it connects, but I still want to know what the other things do.. any one can shine some light on the file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jimax Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 I just bought an OEM, unbranded, unlocked Qtek 9101. Do I need to do the registry hack on that phone or is it just for the branded phones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Morninglight Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) The cab also sets \HKLM\system\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize and the other cache things to 1024, it should be set to 4096 (see other reghacking threads). it also removed my indicator for the dot/shift button. So it is not a good idea to use this cab when you've set the other values according to the other threads. I just tried adding the key dot11SupportedRateMaskG with DWORD value 8 to my girlfriends MDA Vario and that did the job, she can connect to my G-only mode AP. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms add key with name: dot11SupportedRateMaskG Value DWORD: 8 Edited January 21, 2006 by Morninglight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest crx16 Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 looks like the 2nd part of that cab adds an caps and no. indicator, I never had one before so even more happy ;) posted from my vario using G :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lekus Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 add key with name: dot11SupportedRateMaskG Value DWORD: 8 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Heh, that is very similar to what I was trying to do in a thread about getting G working. I was playing around with the values of dot11DesiredTxRate and dot11SupportedRateMask, but not dot11SupportedRateMaskG as it didn't exist by default and I didn't know of it to add it. A value of 8 specifies to allow all transfer speeds. Lower values set specific groups of speeds. Interestingly I don't remember dot11SupportedRateMaskG existing as a registy key on the 9100's or K-JAM, could someone confirm this? Makes me wonder what different method of 'G' support they have.

Guest futuresbright1 Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 had cab installed for a couple of days now and my o2 xda mini s now works on my linksys modem router on B,MIXED AND G ONLY. also connects to a belkin G only cable router which beforehand would see connection but would not connect. seems to speed things up generally,well worth trying. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jiffk Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 i can access the network but for some reason it wont let me browse the net, anyone else having net problems i'm using pre assigned ips rather than dhcp, and until i installed this update it wouldnt take the ip address so at least thats something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No amount of messing about would allow the Wizard to even take the static IP in my case (even trying to force it via some registry entries didn't work). In the end I had to enabled DHCP on my router even though my Vario gets assigned a static IP (it still gets the static IP :?;), this works for me and I can browse network and web. If you do this, make sure the DHCP server/router/whatever, has it's gateway set to whatever machine/router is set up as your Internet gateway as this is what the Wizard will be 'given' via DHCP to use to connect to the net through (In my case my ADSL modem/router acting as gateway).

Guest Fred_ Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 This CAB seems to help on my XDA mini S. I used to have DHCP problems on my 3com OfficeConnect 11q router but it seems to have solved that too. I can now connect with a static IP or get an assigned IP address. No idea if it's connecting at B or G speeds. I don't really care. Also, the indicator for caps/symbol is handy. Success all round. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil Lee Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Here are the registry entries the cab makes/changes: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu]"AniType"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd] "EnableIndicator"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS] "CacheSize"=dword:00000400 "EnableCache"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt] "ReplStoreCacheSize"=dword:00000400 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms] "dot11SupportedRateMaskG"=dword:00000008 "dot11SupportedRateMask"=dword:00000001 I found them on another forum posted by the original author of the cab.

Guest lesgainous Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 (edited) And the 2nd file: CAPNOT~1.001 Containing: 32#"\Windows\CapNotify.exe" I tried running the capnotify.exe from the \windows dir but that doesn't seems to do much.. does anyone know what it is needed for? When running, it allows you to see what mode your keyboard is in (as long as you have enabled this feature). For examples/screenshots of this, go to this site, or to this thread. Make sure that CapNotify.exe is in your \Windows folder on your device and create a shortcut to it in your \Windows\Startup folder. DO NOT put the actual file in your startup folder--just a shortcut to it! Disclaimer: These are settings that work for me. Incorrectly modifying the registry or making another other changes to your device may render the device inoperable. I am not responsible for your device should you reconfigure it to conform to these or any other (correct or incorrect) settings. Reconfigure at your own risk.
