has anyone figured out how to remove the comm manager and the battery icons from the tray?
these are the programs in my windows\startup folder
PKG.lnk
sddaemon.lnk
sdim.lnk
TPStartup.exe
if it is not one of these and they are loaded from the registry - is there any way to prevent them them from loading from the registry?
thanks
Did you search? I posted a howto on this.
here you go

fair point about the search!
thanks for your help - now solved.
while this is being discussed... has anyone figured out how to disable the whole taskbar and not just specific icons? I know it disappears if there are no icons to display but there are other apps that put icons there... tomtom, task managers etc etc it would be simpler to just disable the whole thing right?
i moved a file called "O2 Custom.lnk" from the \Windows\Start Up folder to my storage card (just to back it up) and the tray went away. however, since i'm now running bepe's .53 Non TomTom WM 6.1 Rom, it's no longer an issue for me. hope this helps!
Nice one cortezzi!

Hello
I'm obviously new here and glad to find a place where I can find out more about my xda2s.
One quick question I hope someone can answer - on my old Dell x3 there was a fantastic 'Switcher Bar' appearing at the top of the screen, which when pressed would show what programs were currently open, and allowed you to then close them, therefore saving memory etc etc.
I know there is the task manager on the xda2s but I cannot get an icon for it; one that will stay constantly there. Any ideas or is it simple not possible.
Thanks in advance

install the attached file, it will give you 2 new icons. one on the top which will show battery status and the second icon at the buttom which will show running programs.
hope this is what you are looking for. :wink:

that's great, thank you. I've installed it into Program Files> Task Bar> (all the unzippped files) but it hasn't done anything.....how do I activate it?
Many thanks
HPJ
you dont unzip it
you sync it to the pda and run it then it install what needs to be installed
personaly i use PHM Task Manager
which is pretty much the same as the task manager in windows(pc)
Still cant do it....I need more practise obviously.
Whats the PHM Manager like in WindowsPC (I know how to use that at least.....)
Thanks
HPJ
here is what it's like and look like
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/TaskMgr/
well when you doubleclick on a cab file you should see a progress bar often it's gon before you know it and then the program should have been autoinstalled and have an icon in programs

Dosn't work with WM6 on a HTS x7501
Not surprising
On my 8525 (and my old TyTN as well), the connection manager icon used to be visible in the system tray. But since the Kaiser has no dedicated connection manager button, I want to put the icon there for easy access. Yes, I know I could map a button to it, but I've already got my mapping where I want it.
Anyone know what the registry entry might be? Any help is appreciated!
try PHM traylauncher.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping for some kind of registry edit. I also want to get the battery icon down there too. There has to be a reg edit for both of these, I just can't find it.
PHM Traylaunch is your best bet for doing both of the things you've mentioned.
You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=26692&d=1141536332
Have you tried using the HTCHomeplug under start > settings > today > items? It's not the tray, but its what you are looking for.
Hi, found this somewhere and I now install it direct in my Windows / Start menu/programs folder. You get an icon which if pressed just switches BT on or off. I put it on my start menu and it makes life really simple.
I dont know how to make it into a cab so here is the exe. As i cant upload an exe i renamed it .txt, so rename it .exe and it should work.
if someone can turn it into a cab that would be nice too!
Works a treat on my Kaiser.
Here is a CAB to install the Exe to \Program Files\EkerB\BT Toggle and the Shortcut to \Windows\Start Menu
EDIT: I did it using WinCE Cab manager. Very simple to use.
Thanks

simple bluetooth "on/off" or does it have "on+visibile /off"
because biggest PIA is turning visibility on after you already turned BT on
I don't know, have to wait for the OP to get back. I just made a CAB and tested by looking at the Blue LED light on my phone.

sorry i quoted wrong post...by the way have you ran into some registry values or parts of the app that control the registry
because things like icons and shortcuts for bt,wireless,irda and some other stuff are simple registry "modifyiers"
somewhere a value changes from 0 to 1 and your BT gets on/off
Anybody know if there is a similar program for data connetions?
Hey everyone. I decided to cook myself a new ROM. I removed a bunch of programs but I now have two dead shortcuts. One is the Sliding Sounds app in Settings\Personal and the other is TouchFlo in Settings\System. I tried to locate them on the device and attempt to delete them with Total Commander but can't seem to find them. Any ideas on how to get those blank icons out of there? Are they registry entries? Thanks in advance.
For TouchFlo, remove this key (in rgu | OEMApps):
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCCPL\Applet25]
"CmdLine"=""
"Name"="TouchFLO Settings"
"Path"="TFSettings.exe"
"Title"="TouchFLO"
For Sliding sounds, just remove all key/string that has 'sliding'
(in OEMDrivers & OEM_Lang_**** rgu) & all corresponded files.

If i remember correctly, sliding sounds is in one of the provxml files...maybe 105 in the operator pkg file in oem. if not try the the other provxmls.
You guys are awesome, thanks for the help.

Actually I just deleted the key for TouchFlo as you stated and even after a reset it is still showing up as a blank shortcut icon in Settings...Any other ideas?
EDIT: I went into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\MyCpl\ and removed the coresponding numbered file....is this ok? It removed those blank shortcuts.

try looking in OEMApps for TFLOsettings.lnk or something similar and delete it
In case anyone was wondering, my problem was that I didn't edit the initflashfiles.dat and the mxip_HtcApps_translation.provxml files correctly before cooking my ROM. All good now. Thanks again guys.
Hi everyone,
I've installed the tomtom in my Leo but the icon has not have the apropiate size. Is there any way to change the icon for a bigger one?
Thanks in advance.
yes, I had the same issue.
if you search the registry for copilot.png you can see how it's done and the respective .png size. There is a .svg file on wikipedia of the tomtom logo. I used this to create a .png, dropped this onto the phone in /windows, create the key and reboot.
Jim
Thanks, dattrax
How should I create the key?
I've created the .png and dropped it onto the /windows folder but I don't know what I have to do now.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have just got Tom Tom working today using the TT7 915.9196 application and a dodgy method of activating the maps (that are mine, and I have bought twice!) because Tom Tom are useless and the new Tom Tom Home doesn't recognise the Leo.
Anyway, all is good now apart from the fact that the program icon does not appear at all in the programs list and I don't know how to add it. Can anyone help please?
Also, I had on my HTC TP cameras and traffic - can these be activated now that I can't use Tom Tom Home?
Thanks.
There's an app to do this for you. Have a read through this thread...

Done it!!
Thank you very much.
