Owner's Info on WM5 - General Topics

Is it a way to disable edit of Owner's Info with current data - maybe registy entry....

even if you disable it when you do a hard reset you will be able to edit it again

shogunmark - I know about it.
I need it, because from time to time I accidently hit owner info and info is changed. I would like to limit this posibility.
After hard reset still I need to fill out info.

are you talking about accidentally hitting it on the today screen?

Yes,
Sometimes when I have phone in side case is accidentally hits on user info, and sometimes changes inputed data

You can make the item on the today screen non-selectable
In the registry
goto HKLM\software\microsoft\today\items\
then goto owner info and give 'selectability' a value of 0
Close down via power button and startup - owner info should not be selectable i.e. highlightable on the today screen.

meschle - your's solution is half what i am looking.
What I am exactly looking is selectability=1 and when you enter everything would be non-changable. Like all fields label not text boxes. I do not know how to descibe it diffrently.

I dont think that is possible the info is in HKCU\controlpanel\owner and there are no parameters to make it non-changable.
You could have a static xml plugin but the result is essentially the same as option 1.

I did it in my hermes without success. I can still select it and change the info.
Is there anything that I've missed? Thanks.

You are right that tweak is only to make it non-selectable via d-pad not the stylus - the only way then is to have a plugin that allows text input and is totally non-selectable e.g. a xml plugin - there are a number around.

You can try rlToday
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269650&highlight=rltoday
edit the XML file to display whatevr information you want. I don't think it is selectable.

Can't download, the site is down, I'll try again later.
Thanks

I've tried the Owner Info X plugin vijay cited.
It had a problem appearing consistently--the plugin's today slot would, at times, have nothing in it.
Dunno if the problem was fixed in a newer version of the plugin, though.

Thanks Vijay, worked as I wanted.
Thanks again

Cannot remap 3 hardware buttons: Voice Cmd, OK and Camera

greetings all... i wanted to remap my Voice Command button to another activity, however, the Voice Cmd, OK and Camera buttons do not appear in the list of button options:

i know it was there before because i mapped it to DeviceLock. i've already tried 2 soft resets with no success. i'm hopeful that i can fix this with a simple registry change vs. a hard-reset. if this can fixed via registry edit, i would be grateful if someone could (a) export the the correct registry keys and send them to me via PM (or post here) OR (b) post where to find the keys in the registry and list the default settings... thanks in advance for feedback.
I bet it has something to do with some software you installed. I have kaiser and remapped voice dial button to comm manager and it works without any problem.
not in this case... i installed smartSS to take the picture you see in my post. thanks for the suggestion, though.
Interesting, my config screen shows butons 1-6 plus a second number 6 button (hold), total of 7 mappable keys. Have you never had all these keys shown in this config screen? or did something you add take them away? I would perform a Hard Reset and see if the stock rom brings them back. Good Luck!

sorry for that, I already changed my post, I just thought (although not knowing what smartSS is) that it is the software that reserves the use of button mappings and therefore disables them in the windows settings menu.

the buttons just didn't show up when i went to change them. i'm going to hold out for a possible non-hard reset option. for now, i'll use AE Button Plus. thanks for responding...

Remove Items from Today

Hi, New here, but taken so much good stuff from here today.
I have my Today screen almost where I want if the HTC Home and LG plug in, but I can't get rid of a few items to Place the LG bar at the bottom of the screen.
As you'll see on the shot I've circled a some icons, now I can lose the o2 icon by removing the Startup reference and i no how to lose the Calendar\Contact bar but I cannot get rid of the Battery and Comm icons.
Any ideas.
Cheers

For the Comm Manager and Battery indicator there is a reg edit... for that you can search the Tips and Trick thread on the Upgraging subforum...
Also you might find some clues about the others aswell....
Thanks for that, but any chance of a little more info.
After going through 72 pages in that Tweaks and Tricks thread I found only the bits I knew already about the install.
I may have been going a little post blind though after page 40 or so.
Sorry, can't help
I know which reg entries (for the battery and comm manager) you have to modify on the Hermes... but I doubt it'll work on the polaris... maybe some one can provide more info in the tips and tricks thread if you ask...
Sorted it, after a tip from another thread, it's the system tray, from that i found the Reg Key.
If anyone else needs it, it is.....
Code:
Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ Software/ HTC/ Trayapplet
Then I removed the O2 icon from Startup and sorted.
Decided I don't like the LG tray though in the end lol, but it's nice to have all my desktop to play with.
i too have problems with the system tray bar
when i connect to my PC via usb, or when i launch tomotm, the tray apperas, an messes up my todayscreen configuration, wich i completly do by ultimatelaunch, so the system tray uses some of the space i use fpr ultimate launch
i tried to follow the how tos, to disable it, namely remove the trayap folder in hklm_software_htc but i dont have such a folder there, and i searched fpr a init_tray:ink in my autostart folder, but didnt find anything like that there
anyone knows how to disable this bar?
i use bepes, wm6.1 rom in .67
greetings and thanks in advance, qoka

WM6.5 Messages panel - what is the name? (Samsung Jack)

I flashed my Jack with WM 6.5 recently and loaded the Titanium panels. But I am not seeing an "all in one" panel for Missed calls, Email, Text, and Voicemail. Instead I have a panel for each one.
I checked out the list of apps/panels in the 3vo ROM's for the Excalibur and nothing seemed to be the panel I'm after.
See middle Screenshot at the bottom of first post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718
Or just below the Wifi panel in this SS.

Anyone know where I can find the stand alone installer? Or help narrow down the search terms? The results I am getting haven't helped find it yet.
I was able to find the info in the Titanium CPR file on the 3VO rom, so I copied that over to the file for my phone. It works!
I just can't find the icons though, I've got red x's on the condensed view and 2 of 4 icons in expanded have red x's. I've looked over the text a lot and I just can't find where they are pulling from.
Looking at the image keys in the registry I see the following:
Value Name: chNotification_cv_email
Value Data: 2003
I'm guessing that is pulling from a DLL, but I am stumped on where to find the name of the DLL so I can view the contents to pick new icons.
Have you tried checking with CHomeConfigurator? I have both the combined panel and the individual ones...

I think you would have to edit the CPR file and comment out the items you don't want to use. If you're editing the CPR file, make a copy for safe keeping in case you mess it up.
Commenting an item out should be easy enough, you'll probably have to adjust the spacing afterwards to get things to appear neatly again.

Is there any way to manipulate the in-call screen? It puts up this tiny little picture and the rest is this weird blue/gray nothing. It seems as if it would be much better to have the picture much bigger, or include some additional contact information, or just better utilize the space.
Anybody know how to mod this?
Contact picture on incoming call
I found an answer here:
Samsung SGH-i200 - FAQ - 4PDA
Is it possible to increase the contact picture on incoming call by regular means, ie no extra software?

If you disable Samsung-style dialer the photo caller is displayed on the screen size.

In Registry change:

Our try "PHOTO CONTACTS PRO WM Smartphone Edition".
Thanks.
But, it doesn't seem to change anything. The phone still looks the same with incoming our outgoing calls.
Is there a template or something that I need to change? Is there a "skin" file that I can tweak?
Does anybody know what the .cpr file is for the in-call screen? That's all I'm looking for, and I'm striking out.
if i remember right its extcall.dll, dialog "MS_PHONE_CONTACTPICTURE" i've made some small attempts in the past but wasn't to driven to try to make it work. hopes this helps you.
or... you can give this a try, i can't tell you if it'll work for you or not.

Thanks.
It is a lot more complex than I thought. I've never edited .dll's before... and spending the last day or so trying to get it to work isn't taking me very far.
I might keep trying, but I think I need some assistance. Feel like a bull in a china shop right now, just feeling my way through and not very successfully.

God Mode (From Windows 7) Works on the Surface RT.

My entirely non-techy but for some reason reliant on God Mode wife suggested I see if it worked on my new surface.
It does (or did the title give it away?)
For those that forgot:
◦Create a new folder anywhere on the Desktop.
◦Rename the folder by pasting this name exactly as it appears (copy it first):
◦GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
So far I have discovered you can add the "traditional" icons to the desktop and their is a TFTP client that can be installed.

Convenient, but - for the record - nothing that can't be done elsewhere. It's a useful aggregation of advanced features, but I don't think it actually exposes anything that can't be reached from some other way. Windows Features, for example, can be accessed by simply typing "features" into Start (it's under the "Settings" category).
Not to say that this isn't a cool hack, but it doesn't actually give you any more power - just convenience.

As I am experiencing the same problem, what happened to your Office icon on the Start bar? I ask, because mine have gone plain white as well

It happened to me when I updated to the full version of office. Remove them, then go back to the metro start screen,] and right click the office icons to pin them to the task bar.
