Anyone know how I can add a shortcut to the Call Log program? I have Program Launcher on the Today screen, so I need to know where the shortcut is to add it to Program Launcher.

Try VJPhoneShortcuts.

Re: VJCallHistory
Extracted VJPhoneShortcuts to my Storage card.
Copied VJCallHistory.exe to Program Files.
Executed the program and it just returnes me to the today screen.
Any thoughts?

Is there a way to make the side button bring up the dialpad program? If so would someone please show me how?
Thanks in advance!
not sure, if you can try making a shortcut link to the Phone.exe (I think) somewhere in the \Windows directory.. and then assign button to it
most WM should already have this phone shortcut in Start->Programes

The program that calls up the dialpad is phonedialer.exe. It's already in the \windows directory.
What I don't know how to do is to assign the button. When I call up the program to do that I just get what seems to be a set a list of programs.
By the way, what steps does one take on these devices to create a shortcut?
(edit)
Figured it out - made a shortcut, pasted it into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and then could assign a button to it.
Thanks!

Hi,
I know how to create a shortcut to a program by doing
99#"\windows\calc.exe".
But can someone tell me how to create a shortcut to a folder.
I tried the following but it is not working.
99#"\windows\start menu\programs\games
thanks
total commander does a good job making shortcuts
(Originally posted on Rhodium Forum but should work with most devices running Manila hence re post here).
Hi all
To help organise my applications I've always wanted to be able to shortcut to start menu folders from within the manila program launcher but standard functionality did not allow for this.
I found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416092
and I've developed the ideas a little and come up with a cab which will allow you to link to your Connectivity, Games, Multimedia, System Tools and Utilities folders within the Start Menu from the manila program launcher.
First go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs to see if you have the above folders, if you haven't you can create them. You don't have to have them all but the shortcuts will only work to the ones you have.
Then install the attached cab. This will provide you with a set of shortcut files that can be selected from program launcher as normal. (Thanks to Andrew-in-Woking and this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=1782122 for the icons which I used).
I've tested on my Kaiser and Rhodium both on WM6.5 and seems to work fine. Let me know of any issues.

Ok, i reinstalled a couple of programs, then i get the shortcut in right place, but programs like tomtom i doesn´t want to reinstall i will try your way. But i don´t have resco, any regedit program will work, right ?
Here is the right way to assign a shortcut (and WM6.5 "Bronze" icon) for any program
This can be manually added to the registry or via .REG or .PROVXML
This example is for a standard REG (RGU) unicode text file, and will add a start menu ("bronze") shortcut with anasociated icon for a software called "goleada4.0", which is installed in "Program Files\Alcorcon" (just an example, not a real app, just wahtever came to my mind first )
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Tools\Goleada4.0.lnk]
"Icon"="\\Profgram Files\\Alcorcon\\Goleada4.0.png"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher]
"\\Program Files\\Alcorcon\\Goleada4.0.exe"="\\Program Files\\Alcorcon\\whatever.qtc"
Notice the last line MUST be empty, following the standard .REG / .RGU syntax
Hope this helps
Wow! That's complicated. Why not just use the file explorer on the device, navigate to the .exe, copy and then go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs and paste a shortcut there?
Or you can use the attached programme.
How can I organize the Start Menu without actually organizing the Start Menu?
I have an HTC Touch Pro2 with the factory installed Sense 2.5 and Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM. I've added CHT. Every time I install a program, it naturally installs the shortcuts to the ../Start Menu/Programs directory. If you later organize the shortcuts, you break your Quick Links and Free Links. If you do an update, the program's shortcut gets installed back in the default location and you need to delete or move them. If I could just let the programs install in the default \Start Menu\Programs directory, and have something that could organize the display independently of the way they are stored, I would never have to change the default program's default shortcut location, and could organize and re-organize the "Start Menu" at will without breaking links. This is not a problem for Windows desktop because you don't generally have a shell above it like HTC Sense, linked to the shortcuts of the Start Menu. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?
The cure would be if Sense + CHT could link to files outside of the ../Start Menu/Programs directory structure.
Thanks!
