Tilt Tips
The Camera Blur
Want to know why the camera often takes blurry photos? Well I was playing around with my registry (don’t do this unless you’re willing to live with the consequences) and I came across an interesting key named “EnableFrameRateInfo” which was set to ‘0′ (meaning not enabled) so I set it to 1, fired up [...]
How to Install an Application
Really? Yes. This is the number one asked question in our forums and at XDA (and I know more people are too afraid to get flamed for asking it).
Let’s start with the types of files. You’ll either get a cab or an exe file. In either case you can move them to your phone [...]
Increase the Size of Your Screen (no Scrollbars)
Since you already have a scroll wheel and you also have Touch Flo at our disposal (you know, the ability to swipe or flick the screen up and down), do you really need a vertical scroll bar? The big payoff is that there’s more screen but once you make the change you really notice that [...]
Send Text Messages Through Email
Here’s another little known fact (unless you’ve been around long enough to know it:)) which I saw was dug up the other day. If you don’t have an unlimited text messaging plan but you want to send text messages you can do it for free – by sending an email. All you do is [...]

Because of this, we’re often forced to do a lot of the changes on our Tilt using File Explorer or using apps like TotalCommander. There have been plenty [...]
How to Forward an Email
Uhm, Menu, reply, forward. Thanks for the tip DavidK – next time try. Ok, we all know how to hit the forward button but if you use an Exchange Server (not sure of other formats) then you may know that when you forward an email the recipient does not get inline text. Instead they [...]
How To Undock Your SIP Keyboard
Even though this is probably not going to make the top ten coolest registry hacks ever performed on the AT&T Tilt & HTC TyTN II, I still feel obligated to post about it.
Now granted, we happen to have an awesome Slide Out Keyboard, but if you are like me, you sometimes use the [...]
Enable Manual Network Selection on Your Tilt
If you travel or if you unlock your phone you may want to pick the network that you are connecting to but the Tilt is set for automatic network detection thanks to AT&T. Go to Settings – Phone – Network and you’ll see how limited the options there are. Enabling them is just a [...]
Access Contacts from Your Company Directory
Ever go to email someone you work with just to learn that their email isn’t in Outlook? They’re in your desktop Outlook because they are on the corporate Exchange Server but they’re not in your Tilt’s Outlook. Or you know sometimes they just hired the new guy and all you know is his name [...]
