WM6 2 carrier names and BT logo - Palm Treo 750

Using a 750v WM6 and installed HTC Plugin even without the activecall button option (speaker/mute) still can live with it - my question is this - above the HTC digital clock I can see the carrier name (left) and date (right). There is still the original carrier name and BT logo at the bottom - what do I do to take out the bottom carrier name? I also want to put a soft key to activate the BT logo - how?
Many thanks

Help!!! 3 stupid (or not) questions !!!

I upgraded to 2.01a_WWE32. And have some problems
1. Why don`t my screen turn off when I hold POWER button?
2. How can I change splash image, because I changed it in old 2003se, and now when rebooting it appears two images, my old one and standart blue WINOWS MOBILE?
3. How can I remove battery icon at the top bar? This Icon is not produced by plugins or somethin else. And when I set option to display clocks it messes with battery icon and looks strange.
tnx

does anyone have a screenshot of the 750 with the htc home plug in

just curious?
Looks cool
HTC home screen plug in looks amazingly good on the 750 and functionally is one of my favorites plug ins (stylus free operation). Unfortunately, it partially screws up 750 hardware buttons assigned functions. For example, to to hang up a call you have to press OK button instead of red power on/off, to place a call you have to press central "select" button instead of green "call". Soft keys are OK.
I guess the plug in is originally designed for Hermes, worked fine on my previous 8525.
Treo 750 with HTC Plugin
1. Install WM6 ATT ROM Update.
2. Install HTC Plugin Install.
3. Enable "Dial Lookup" and "HTC Home" Plugins.
4. Enable "Hide lookup Field" Option from Menu -> Preferences.
5. Modify a value on the registry:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Home\Type
and change the value of "type" to 4.
6. Modify a value on the registry:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\Dial Lookup\Type
and change the value of "type" to 4.
This enabled you to move "Dial Lookup" plugin above "HTC Home" plugin.
7. Goto
HKLM/software/microsoft/shell - new dword ShowTitleBarClock with value=1
This will force the clock to show instead of two battery icon on the top bar.
Enjoy.
thanks im gonna try it
Will the today call activation screen still work or will the HTC Home stay up during calls?

Can't seem to get the second battery off. There was already a ShowTitleBarClock on the directory specified. Whatto do? NEVERmind Reset device now gone. thanks I was looking for the 5 tab already had the 3 tab thanks alot.
Can someone build a cab with the latest 5 tab HTC Home screen with the reg edits already applied? If someone sends me the appropriate files/reg entries, I am happy to build the cab...I dont even have a Treo - doing this for a friend!
MJB
also when I go to change my weather city there is no cities to choose from. It never populates. Hoe can I change my city in the accuweather app?
Anyone able to fix the hardware button issue or do the registry edits correct it?
This HTC homescreen just looks sick on the 750! I want to try it.
Anyone able to uninstall it?
HR will do it - got a question for the experts though - does this app interfere with com ports at all - I found that after installing this plugin my BT GPS couldnt connect to my 750v - or maybe its coincidence?
How can I remove "phone status" plugin (displaying network name, BT,CF status...) from screen? After installing HTC plugin I have HTC,status plugin and dial lookup, and cannot remove the second one.
Thanks
Can this go on just the newist treo out? not the palm but the one supporting WM6?
I like the HTC home plugin but I cannot use hidelogo at the same time...so one line at the top is burned by the ATT carrier logo. If you click on hidelogo you go into a loop of resets.
This thing is great. But I have a problem. For some reason the screen will not go blank when the "End call" button is pressed (Tried other buttons as well but nothing will turn it off). In fact the screen will not go black for about 10-15 sec. Anyone know why this would happen? Thanks
The quick dial does not let me choose which number to dial on a contact. ie. cell, home, work. Anyway to fix that?

What's On Your Today Screen?

I have been going back and forth between rltoday and HTC Home. I have issues with both and I like them both. I am currently running the HTC Home plugin.
rltoday Pros:
Highly configurable (if you have time)
very light weight
can use with the hidelogo cab
free
rltoday Cons:
limited user community (for my device)
unable to navigate with five-way
limited native functionality (additional scripts or 3rd party apps needed)
no weather plugin
HTC Home Pros:
Customizable (HTC Home Config)
multi-tabbed
built-in weather
built-in ringer profile selections (with HHC)
launch music player from today screen as well as see what's playing
built-in picture dialer
no 3rd party apps/scripts needed
free
HTC Home Cons:
unable to use hidelogo cab
weather plugin is limited (even with HHC)
profile selections don't always work
a. doesn't vibrate but is silent
b. when the meeting/event is over speaker is turned all the way down
when the clock is touched it launches the time/alarm settings (annoying)
So, what are you running on your today screen and why?
hey too bad nobody is answering to this i would love to know all the cool today plugins there is. Im running the HTC Home plugin and sometimes the cool Pointu interface.
How about you guys ?
I prefer the simple but elegant approach...until something really groundbreaking comes along :
TA Pro: controls LED, and gives quick stats and weather
GoodMobile Messaging Calendar and Mail (also displays sms count)
cLaunch: Three 2xtabs (each tab has 2 wrap rows) with my common apps. I've also modified cLaunch.dll to play nicer with the 240x240 display when in the settings area of the app.
Hidelogo to give a little more real estate
I've also replaced battery.exe with an HTC version that gives a better battery icon and little more display flexibility.
QuickMenu 2.7 to assist with app closing, hibernate, soft reset and additional menu browsing needs.
fTouchflo (last free version) for easier touch navigation
I've replaced the default tahoma.ttf with the one from my XP workstation for a smoother font appearance
================
I really like throttle launcher as a replacement for cLaunch, but presently it takes up too much memory and is a little cumbersome to configure on the fly.
PointUI is promising, but needs better hooks into "Good" before I can use it, plus needs more customization options to allow me to get to what I need in a minimum of "clicks" - it's not presently able to give me what my present setup offers me.

Any screenshots?
My Today screen is settled. I have finalized on HTC Home Plugin. No other plugins on the screen. You will notice that I have the bluetooth and the carrier information hid. This is accomplished with Memaid removing the "active call", and "lookup". This does make some additional challenges like the usage of the talk (green) and end (red buttons) as well as the ringer. These are easily overcome by registry changes. I also employed the HTC Home Customizer to make the background transparent and have the "Vista" icons. Music is being played on the device and only showing in the plug (not title bar) through the use of "wk Task". Also I have the battery icon on the today screen but on other apps the time is displayed. This is a result of HHC as well. You can have the time only always; I chose to have it only away from the Today screen. You will also notice that the left and right softkeys are different. Because I am using the standard Windows Mobile dialer, I can customize these keys. One goes to the mail/messaging and the other goes to my IM program. I am running WM6.1 Lite OS (ROM).
I intend to write a complete document on how to do these customizations. It can be frustrating looking for hours and days piecing things together. WinMob has been a lot more fun for me than Palm (former 650 user).
What other options are out there? Feel free to chime in.
Just added quick menu to the list. It is amazing!
Quickmenu
I have found that this application makes my Treo unresponsive. I noticed that after selecting the application, my phone seems to hang or be very slow. I have uninstalled it until I can figure what is making it unresponsive.

Well my today screen is running SPB Mobile Shell 2.
Version 2 looks real nice and has some cool animations too.
lew, i sent you a pm, id love to get rid of palm dialer and the att/bt logos while keeping red/green button functionality.
I got what I need installed (memmaid, total commander) i just dont know what to do.
what registry settings did you use to get the green and red phone keys functional again after disabling the carrier/bluetooth icons?
Green/Red Button Functionality
Use the following steps to remove the carrier info/bluetooth logo and still use the green/red buttons.
I got rid of the carrier info by way of the removal of "Active Call" and "Dial Lookup" startup items. These were removed using MemMaid. At this point the device will revert to the WinMob dialer. Pressing the green button will launch the dialer and pressing the red button will cause it to go away. However pressing the red button will NOT end a call. You have to press the "End" button on the screen or hangup via your BT device button.
You will need to change the service called "VOL0" to "manual" (MemMaid again).
You will no longer be able to select your ringer in the standard way. You will need to make the change in the registry. HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds is where the change is made. The entries PlmORingTone1, 2 and 3 are the entries for Known Unknown and Roaming calls. You will have to copy and paste (and over-write) the entries from there to "RingTone0", 2 and "RoamingRing0". PlmORingTone1 and RingTone0 are for "Known"callers. You will have to make this change every time you want the ringtone to be different. These steps are not necessary for changing the ringtone of a contact.
You need to remap the device keys. (Backup your device OR copy the values down BEFORE you make any changes if you want to go back!!) Make the following changes in the registry. In HKLM\Security\Phone change the Charmap to "ertdfgxcvzubo" and the Keymap to "ERTDFGXCVZUBO". In HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin change Enabled to "0".
Reset the device
NOTE: These changes are only necessary if you want to use the standard WM6(.1) dialer. Original Values for the Charmap and Keymap entries
Charmap "ertdfgcvbyuio"
Keymap: "ERTDFGCVBYUIO"

Did you install this or did you unzip and launch it? I didn't find an installer (or cab). I will launch it again and reset the device and see if it works.

Thanks for the tutorial, but now the red key no longer turns off the screen. Any ideas
Red Button No Longer Turns Off Screen
I too have the same problem with the red button. To aleviate this I have created a button shortcut that allows me to lock the phone by pressing one button. Using QuickMenu, in the options, on the command tab, choose lock from the list and click on create shortcut. You can now assign a button to this to lock the phone. I choose the OK button. So if I press and hold OK, my phone will lock.
By the way, the issue that I was having with QuickMenu was a conflict with CTRL-Pro. After removing it I am now able to use QuickMenu without any problems.

why not use the "hidelogo.cab" floating around and be done with it? Never had an issue with any soft or hard buttons.

I use the executable and DLL's from http://www.alensw.com/attachment/QuickMenu_2.7.rar
I extract to ExtROM and create a shortcut to the EXE in windows\startup.
All the settings are stored in the registry, use total commander or your preferred flavor of reg reader to import/export for backup/restore purposes.
Cheers
why not use the "hidelogo.cab"
The hidelogo.cab causes a reset loop with the HTC Home plugin.

Acer DX900 italian version

Hello everyone,
I own the terminal in question (DX900 VER A147 ITA 040 0502 2009/03/04 12:42). As I imagine you know, this is a DualSIM Phone.
Currently, my main problem is to assign to a key the ability to make as "main" a SIM rather than another.
To do this, on the phone, you must press a key sequence and have a few menu items choices:
Phone (left softkey),
Menu (right softkey),
Down (via the correspondig key on the key pad)
Enter (via the central key on the key pad)
At this point, you have the ability to choose which SIM to activate, the first one (first line above) or the second one (second bottom line).
I tried to achieve this through MortScript and I have succeeded. However, firstly the process is rather slow (I had to insert a pause of 250ms between the various commands to get it to work correctly), secondly the process does not happen in background and finally the process works only on the "today" screen.
Someone has any advice about it, whereas I am not very familiar with programming?
Thanks in advance.
Since "...help yourself that God help you...", "...aiutati che Dio t'aiuta..." (Italian), "...aide toi et le ciel t’aidera..." (French) , I wrote this little program, which I called "SIM_Switch" and which is used precisely to instantly change the main calling SIM.
Just map it on an hardware button and on every press of that button, the main calling SIM change instantly from "SIM 1" to "SIM 2" and vice versa.
No "Pop-up", no "Message Box": just have a look at the Today screen and see how the color of the Operator name of the active SIM change from white to orange, and vice versa, indicating the active calling SIM change.
Hi from Italy

[Q] WM6.5: Softbuttons are displayed at default Lockscreen

Hi there...
My device is HTC Topaz, stock rom 5.2.21887, Manila 2.5.2011. Just in case about software: Cookie Home Tab 1.8.5 is installed, but CHT Lockscreen is disabled. Topaz Settings Tool also installed.
The issue is that after call has ended, softbuttons stay visible for about 10 secs on top of the default lockscreen. The phone received a call when it was in "Stand by" mode and locked.
I thought this might be because of default lockscreen, but HD mini lockscreen shows the same problem: softbuttons are still visible for ~10 seconds.
Can anyone point a direction, please?
