set pointui/cube as HOME?

hello,
by default - holding the red phone-hangup button brings me to today-screen.
but in my case i don't use the windows mobile today screen at all! i installed pointui - as autostart.
i hardly have any reason to go to the today screen.
can't i change this behaviour somehow ? when i hold the red hangup-button i want to go "back" to pointui - not to today-screen.
in case there's no solution like that - is there at least some kind of today-plugin that could bring me back to pointui home ? maybe so alround-lauch-exe-plugin ?
by the way: i'm talking about WM2003SE!
thank you!

I'm sorry that I do not know the solution to the problem. Please, next time you post, do not make a misleading title (! instead of ?) in the wrong section.

If you can post your device i can tell you if you can use the Long_End.lnk trick.
I can then also move this thread to that device's Forum.
A good start would be to contact or check the PointUI website/forum to see if the home.exe accepts a parameter
(home.exe -h)
To return to the home screen
But the Long_end.lnk does not work on all devices.
Will put this into the general forum as Pointui does not have an active development thread here.
Attached you will find a shortcut file.
Change the .txt to .lnk then copy it to the windows directory on your device. Hold down the read Call Button and keep it pressed.
This may or may not work on your device.
But there was no information about your device or rom either in your signature or post which makes it hard to actually give a good answer to your question.

hello,
the device i'm talking about is a magician.
i changed the Long_end.lnk - to the correct path of Home.exe and copied it to \WINDOWS <---- really windows ? no subfolder ?
i tried - does not change anything. anyway - thank you for the info!
another idea ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yeah magician i'm not sure if it has a rom that supports this function.
Touch, Kaiser and some others do. It's hardcoded to the Keyboard driver or keypad driver if i;m correct so i'm not sure it's use able in the Magician.
Oh BTW it should have been Long_End.lnk (Yup no subfolders)
But i have no other suggestion, maybe someone else has.

HTC Polaris backlight disable app

Hi, I have one small problem. About one month ago, I found a small SW, that disabled keyboard backlight on my HTC Polaris. It actually didn't disable it in strict meaning - it only makes the "light time" shortest possible. So, when I touched wheel, it "blinked" (or how could I describe it - it switched light on for few msec). If I am not mistaken, it was on 4pda.ru forum and it was really simple to use - when I ran that executable, this program was switched on and by running it again, it terminated. So, if anyone has an idea, what is the name of that app - or better - has it, please, upload it somewhere / tell me, where it is. Thanks a lot
PS - sorry for grammar mistakes, I am terribly tired

Shortlight
I guess you are referring to this app: Shortlight.

@de vangestel: Yess, I thank you very much
Maybe this should be added to Polaris FAQ? It may be often needed.

Do you know where I can download this app?
On 4pda.ru, I must be registered, but I can't because I cannot write a captcha in Cyrilic with an azerty keyboard !

Im New! Perhaps some new ideas

Ok first of all I would like to thank everyone here at xda-developers for all the hard work and time you put in everything you guys do.
And I would like to apologize for a few things
1) I m really sorry i can not support you guys financially because i dont have a credit card and money is very very very tight (i had to trick a girl in to buying the Touch Pro for me as a "gift" ) , i know it's painstaking work
2) I apologize for oppening a new thread I don't know if it's right place for it
3) I'm sorry for my bad english if I misspell something my english is somewhat rusty
4) I'm sorry if my ideas or thoughts will be the one's of a noob (but it's better to be one for 5 minutes then be one a whole life)
5) Sorry if my imagination is a bit wild
So with that out of the wey let me introduce myself and i'll get straight to the point
My name is Laurentiu but my but my friends call me Sayr
I'm from Romania (a small insegnificant rat hole of a country, if you don't know where that is just think DRACULA)
I live in Bucarest
And i'm 23
The Touch Pro is my first HTC phone and my second Windows Mobile powerd phone , my first was a E-Ten GloFiish X500 which i found on the street one day , and i loved Windows Mobile and with the things I could do with it since then.
I thought it was perfect till i started to search the web for apps and stuf and ran across this site and seen all the possibilities and started to tweek the phone but it got me thinking about how can it be better thanx to you guys.
So i would like to throw in my 2 cents. and ask your opinion .

- Is it possible to extend the Comm Manager to include the hidden settings for : beam , data connectin , 3G , etc... alongside the standard on off settings?
I discovered this settings using the advanced configuration tool
Because this setthings are very handy to have at hand
I know for certain that Beam is permananty activ by default, but i don't know for certain but i think that Beam uses up battery, i'v seen some improvement in battery power since i turned beam off , but perhap it's just mai imagination.
Data connection on/off setting is is also great to have at hand because in some apps it it doesn't startup automatically wen the app needs it or it doesn't shutdown after you exit the app , for example Skype 3.0
And 3G on/off setting is also grate
- Is it possible to have a program thet emulates Port 80? meaning that i can connect to the internet using the phone form a computer or laptop using the Port 8080 on the device,
Let me give you a example becaus i dont know technical talk, this is wath the guy over at vodafone technical support told me in regard to way i cant connect to the internet using the phone with the data plan i have , (is the only one available for prepaid cards in romania, there is another one but is way too expensive 1€ per MB , the more affordable one is 4€ per month and is unlimited , but it only work's on the phone) he said that the computer connects to Port 80 but the phone connects to port 8080 on the proxy server and the proxy server will not accept a incoming connection from Port 80, so can a bridge program be made to tel the proxy server that it is sending and receiving data from a app that uses Port 8080 when the PC tries to access the connectin , same same is true for some apps they will not accept this tipe of connectin becaus of the port difference, this port restriction closes many doors.
- Is it possible to make a phone lock that is simple and efficient to us and that eliminates annoying things.
Wath I'm thinking in in terms of features is:
*Automatic lock on sleeap
*Disengag via 2 second pres on center of the D-pad
*Lock screen wen incoming call but unlock after answering
*Obtional password protection
Very simple an comfortable to us, no annoying settings, no timers
Form me and i'm sure for many it would be the perfect thing to to avoid answering unwanted calls by mistake , calling by my mistake if phone turn's on in pocket, etc .....
- XDA tab, a tab in which you cand view the forum and a particular particular thread of your choosing and respond to postings in real time
and if posible to set it up to view other forums to?
- Bug Fix , when i set a ringthon other then the default "bips" for the SmS , mms , e-mail .... it doesn't stop ringing even after I read the message , it shod stop the moment i press the message tab,
Can this Bug be fixed? (i have standard/default rom)
- A minimize tab , ok we all know that we can set the "X" to close the apps completely a very nice feature provided by HTC but , some times we dont want to close a app for example Acrobat Reader or Opera or YouTube but want it or not we have to, it would be nice to have a tab to minimize one or more apps in while acces other apps and and sweach between them

Ok I'm back,
- So so another idea I'v got is for TouchFlo can TouchFlo asspacialy for the landscape mode,
ok so it's cool to have a TF interface like in portrait mode in landscape mode because the default one is horibal , but wath if we can make better use of it , to have different tabs in landscape mode then the ones in portrait mode that are more usefull in landscape ,
in landscape things like the pepel tab, standard home tab, pictures tab , music tab , etc , are not usefull,
but things like connectin manager tab , today tab , something like a mailing list tab , a programabil sms or email tab (by programabil i meen you can set it up to text or mail with a cerit contact or grup in that tab) , a skype tab , etc ...
- a radio tab for the inbuilt radio
- a small keymaping tweak to make "Enter" on the hardware keybord the send key via "Fn + Enter"
(i do aloat of texting that is the main reason i wanted a phone with a full qwerty keyboard, like 60 to 100 a day 2000 - 3000 a month i use it like messenger so it will be a lot nicer if the key was maped that wey , for pepel ho do a lot of texting)
- is the GPS recever on all the time ?
or it just start's up wen a'n app need's it ?
if it is permanantly on dosent it wareout the battery ?
can a on / off switch be made to tur it off wen it is of no use ?

Hi & welcome to XDA.... there really is a lot of information here for your phone - pretty much if you can think of it then it'll be here somewhere... just a quick idea reading through your post, the software to lock your screen have a look at PocketShield - I use
it and have to say the author is fantastic, updates almost daily and it's really cheaply priced for what it does (think it's under £7??) I've been using it for a while and think it's excellent, but that's just my opinion...
Anyways, hope you get some more answers to your questions, don't worry abou being a n00b, we all were at one time!!!
MadMic

Thanks for the heads up MadMic i'll look into it and
I'll look around the forum for more info so i can learn how to put my ideas in practice
but i truly wish for a few how-to's on how to do this things , on ware to start ,
wath is wath and on wath software's / programs to use , the basics, you know ,
in plain language ...
are there such things?

[Q] Spb Traveler

Someone of you has any idea about the customization of this program for htc hd mini? It isn't compatible with 320*480 resolution and the application "find flight" is very important for me.
Thank you in advance.

I can't answer your question, but google can find filghts and flight info for you:
Track flight status Do you want to know what time your flight leave? Here is what you have to write: [your company name] flight [your flight number] Ex: british airways flight 354
