Lumos is fully customizable auto-backlight changer developed as a complete replacement for HTC built-in auto backlight service in newest HTC devices starting from HTC Diamond and Raphael. It focuses on minimal CPU usage (0.05-0.2%), maximum battery saving, low memory footprint and maximum backlight change smoothness and responsiveness. Lumos combines only the best from all currently available auto-backlight solutions and adds many extras.

LumosStarter.exe = (re)starts Lumos service without any visual feedback (used for startup after soft-reset and for special issues)

XDA-Developer umexed has created 2 power utilities for the HTC Touch HD. They improve the GUI and usability of features already on the device.
Touch HD Power Off replaces the current function of a long press on the power button, but also presents new options.
The first is the traditional full power off of the function, the second is an automatic soft-reset, which is quite useful, as this is the only reason would really power down the device in the first instance, and it saves one having to turn it back on again after it shuts down fully.
The second app is a bit more complex, but also more controversial.
HTC Touch ReCharger prevents your device from charging when connected to your computer until the battery has been depleted to a certain level specified e.g. 5%. Many people believe that keeping a battery topped up reduced performance, and prefer to allow the battery to fully discharge before recharging it. Of course this belief is certainly left over from the Memory Effect found in old NiCd batteries, but some people believe it still persists into modern Li-ion batteries.
A less controversial use may be for conditioning the device when one has just bought it, when you may want to give the battery a few charge and discharge cycles. The advantage of this application is that while USB charging can be disabled in the power settings, it wont be automatically re-enabled when the battery runs low.

16 and 32GB MicroSDHC (Sandisk prototype): this is what Windows Mobile and S60v3 do with 32GB. The cards work with quite a bunch of WM devices (if not all) even those of which the specs specifically claim that they can’t work with anything larger than 8GB.
S60 shows ‘31 GB’ and Windows Mobile 6/6.1 ‘31266.38 MB’.
The real capacity of the card is 32.785.301.504 bytes.

WMRegOptimizer is a small tool that tries to optimize registry access - “defrag” it, if you will. It doesn’t perfectly defrag it, but it goes a long way. This results in somewhat faster registry access for applications where this is the bottle-neck.
Instructions
Install the attached CAB on your device, and run WMRegOptimizer from your start menu.
Before pressing Go, make sure you do the following things:
- Close all running applications
- Uncradle the device
- Put the device in airplane mode
- Be sure your battery isn’t on the low side
After the app says it’s done, close it, and soft-reset your device. The app may appear to freeze at times. Do not soft-reset or terminate the app. It will continue. The entireprocess may take up to 5 minutes.
DO NOT USE THIS APPLICATION ON A STOCK ROM, YOU WILL BE SORRY. Custom ROMs usually have the right registry permissions/policies to do this, but if not, there’s a bigger chance things may go wrong!
