fit4cat Tweaker for HTC Hermes Pocket PC phone released
August 17, 2006 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

Instead of describing, what registry entries should be changed to achieve some changes in functionality, somebody has created a utility program for HTC Hermes Pocket PC phones (i.e. Orange SPV M3100, HTC TyTN, T-Mobile MDA Vario II, etc) that has user friendly interface and can change these registry values easily.

Unfortunately there is a catch: this program may be user friendly but developer of this program is not user friendly at all:

... because to get this program you need to register in a German speaking forum (although the program itself is in English)! Download without registration is not possible! It is strange, very selfish and not acceptable - clearly this program serves the purpose of website popularization and not the purpose of helping out the community!

Developers of freeware must learn that download should be: a) possible without registration, b) available at various places (including Handango, PocketGear, FairDeal, MoDaCo, etc). If one wants to popularize his website through his freeware program then one should just mention URL of this webiste in this program with information like "to get latest version visit...", but not prevent most users from usage by requiring user hostile registration!

Some features of this tweaker:
  • switching on HSDPA (that is by default switched off in some models of HTC Hermes, for example for Vodafone and O2)
  • showing GPS icon in settings
  • showing wireless plugin (that shows provider, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi status information)
  • disabling skin of the phone
  • removing battery tray icon
  • removing wireless tray icon
  • disabling SMS sent notification
  • improving quality of stereo audio over Bluetooth (A2DP)
To learn more or to download this program click here (unfortunately registration required).
