hide battery indicator in Treo 750 - Palm Treo 750

How can I hide the battery indicator in Treo 750.
I have used SPB shell, it shows battery and percent power in screen so I do not want Treo 750 have the origin icon of battery at the top of screen. I have tried to remove this battery icon by change Power Item in registry but not success.
Who can tell me the way to hide it.
Thanks

Hide extra battery icon and show clock.
goto
HKLM/software/microsoft/shell - new dword ShowTitleBarClock with value=1
Needed a soft reset

Strange, no effect for me... :| Should it remove battery indicator? Here, after softreset everything is as it was. I would like to try one from iLauncher...

It does not work for me either. I also have the battery percentage & free memory showing on the title bar and would like to remove the original battery indicator.
Thanks for any help.
PS: I have been lurking around this forum since I got my Treo back in July of 07. I haven't posted much but have used all the knowledge in here including the update to WM6 & removing the att&t stuff. Thank you all, this is a great site.

Does anyone managed to hide the battery logo left of the clock?
I can't find any solution.

Bump to keep this thread going - would love to reclaim that bar space as well.

The only solution I know of replaces the battery indicator with the speaker icon. It is better than having two battery indicators If interested see here.

Thanx!

Sorry! I can not overwrite or delete the BatteryIndicator.exe file in folder \windows because It is in ROM.
Who has other way else?
Thanks

I use Resco File Explorer. And it does seem as if it won't let you overwrite the file, but it actually does. What app are you using to copy and overwrite with?

I use Resco File Explorer too. But can not delete or Replace the file. The OS is WM6.1; Software Ver. TREO750-2.25-ATT

i need tray icons :)

helllo.
previously in WM6 i've tray icons - colored battery indicator and commmgr icon in standart in tray.
now i have WM6 6.6.6.666 WWE and these icons are not in standart. i don't have Init_tray.exe in windows originally. now i have downloadet init_tray.exe and created shortcut in startup... after softreset i still dont have this two icons.
the only icon is a ScreenRotate - i've addet it in startup.
any idea with battery indicator in tray? commmgr icon i could create with battery status.
second question: how to hide bottom bar, not hiding task bar. vjtoggletodayiialpha.exe - this hides upper and bottom bar. tray stays, but it deform wallpaper.
thx for help.
using icons or not is 100% an application thing
different roms is missing programs
that use the trey for icons then one can often get
the programs from the old rom which does use the tray

Still using vjay's toggle. Via the registry you can change the pixel size that it shrinks to (the default setting is 4 pixels). Use about 17 for the start bar-
HK local machine\software\vijay555\toggle...
ok, i got this now.
but theres a little problem. i have putted a shortcut to vjay's toggletoday in startup. and after SR there is no tray on bottom. its show for a milisecond and disappear. i think that the problem is in order of running startup apps... first the batterystatus with tray icons, then VJToggleToday - and the tray is gone

There are programs you can use depending on your phone. HTC Custom and Schaps Config Tool both can remove everything from the tray launch.
thank you maevro for the reply..
i am surprised that i missed it

Hi, could you tell me where in Advanced Config Tool should I go in order to do that? I didn't find anything related to that - or, better said, I didn't see....
thank you

I miss my battery indicator

Hello!
I had on my TC with the original ROM a small icon with a battery indicator in the top right corner. After update to Win 6.1 its place was taken by a nasty clock. I managed to get rid of the clock using the registry. Now, how can I make my battery indicator come back? I really long for it ...
P.S. What is bad about charging the battery through USB? I've heard that it is generally recommended to disable this function...
Use the Advanced Config Tool (search the forums for it). It allows you to set whether to display the battery or the clock on the title bar among a myriad of other settings. Really a great tool. There probably is a reg change somewhere but the tool makes a lot of the tweaks easy.
Or a simple registry edit:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock=0

Battery Icon won't change

O.K. I tried so many cabs for the 1% battery gunge that now it shows 100% all the time. Or when I unplug it it still shows the plug icon. Anyone know of a way to return it to normal without doing a hard reset?
I'm having this same problem... i've been trying to install a taskbar of some sort with nicer icons and haven't been able to get any to work correctly, mostly because the signal strength Icon is replaced by the "no sim card" icon. so I've uninstalled them, and have the same problem now with the Battery not updating...
Use this
Ive used this cab to fix mine altough the battery icons will change u can make a search to find other taskbar icons if you like and the battery increments will go by 20% but work tough. Not my work but worked for me

Battery Icon lost !!!

I don't know through which .cab file, but recently I substituted my battery icon with a digital clock icon on the top right.
How can I get the battery icon back ???

Check your settings in Clocks and Alarms I think you should be able to change to back.
Moved as not theme release.

[Q] WM6.1 click taskbar icon to show more detail e.g. battery -> % remaining

Hi,
I've recently purchased a HTC Touch Pro 2 running WM6.1. Before that I was on a Palm Treo 750 on WM6.0, and on the Palm when I touched the battery icon it would pop up an info bubble showing the % remaining. For that matter any of the other icons in the taskbar I clicked on popped up an info bubble. It just makes sense - icon provides basic info, if you want more detail click on it, simple. I presumed this was normal behaviour until I came to the HTC, and now when I click on the battery icon (or network icon or speaker icon for that matter) I just get a 'Notifications' screen which tells me nothing about the battery (or speaker, and not much about the network).
The battery icon itself on the Palm had a smooth decline from 100% to 0% rather than the HTC one which has just 4 fat bars. I know there are numerous other icons out there but I guess my question goes beyond just the appearance of the battery icon to the functionality of the whole taskbar.
How do I go about restoring the 'sensible' functionality of the Palm on the HTC?
Thanks,
Greg
... bump ...
