So... does anyone one have an uninstall solution? The cab files have seem to change toggles and leave... without indication of which toggles have been flipped.

Appears to modify the registry. I don't see and can't find out what it modified, or what the defaults were.
'Figured I'd dig around MSDN over the weekend. Right now I'd suggest full backup before installing.
I feared the most. No worries I suppose. I myself haven't found what it edits in registry. It's almost untraceable... not very good coding if you ask me.
It would stay online when I powered down before the hack. Someone else has confirmed that this hack WILL turn off Vision services if you turn off the power to the device. It's a shame since the hack is a beautiful addition to turning off Vision without toggling the entire radio stack.

Uninstalling appears to require hard reset.

Thanks,
Please keep us posted. It would be nice to have the "disconnect" button and the duration of the Vision connection in the bubble. It must just be a couple of registry tweaks.
I was able to install it and remove it. The problem I had was that it seemed to somehow mess up my sound (got a lot of breaks and clicks). After I did a hard re-set and restored from an earlier back-up, the sound was working properly again.
To get just the disconnect/time online in your bubble, Tweak the following key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone]
"Flags2"=dword:00000000 = no button disconect in buble con.
"Flags2"=dword:00000008 = button disconect on buble con.
"Flags2"=dword:00000010 = button disconect and time con. on buble conection (hex)
I did 0x10. (Make sure you set HEX 0x10.. 16 decimal).
Warm reset.. you're good to go. (This method doesn't suffer from the shutoff/connection drops problem).

Thanks bfaber,
Sorry for the semi-nubie questions, but would it be possible for someone to give more step-by-step instructions? I am OK at editing the registry when it comes to just changing a value from 0 to 1, but this is a little more involved and I don't want to screw it up.
you and i use resco, so just go to the reg entry and hit file and new dword from the pull down and then go from there....

Also, how do you do a warm reset?
Thanks,
Using phm registry editor:
click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Click ControlPanel
Click Phone
[at this point, the buttom grey status bar should read \HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone'
Click the bottom menu 'edit'
Select new dword value
Change the value name to "Flags2" (no quotes).
Select the 'hexidecimal' button.
Type 10
Click ok.
You should now see in the 'name/data' section:
Flags2 16 (0x00010)
To reset, just use the tip of your stylus in the reset spot on the bottom of your pda. (typical reset.. )
Next time you come up you should see a disconnect button in your status bubble.

P.S. by the way, given this key is a new key, and not a preexisting one, I wouldn't worry too much about messing something up, but you should always backup anyway...

Originally posted by Catman51 I'm using Resco Registry, can't quite figure out how to do it, since it doesn't give me the option of changing the name to Flags2?
The other one listed is free.. just download it.
Its a new dword value though. No existing entry exists for it.
yeah, great work bfaber!!! i myself was searching xda-developers but somehow couldn't manage to get to that post!! great research.. thanks for your post!!
Regards,
