Hello!
Do you happen to know how to:
a)put the gsm indicator on the today screen (VERY preferably on the HTC today, e.g. below the alarm clock on the right side or horizontally near the operator name - not to waste space)
b)block GPRS: just to tell the phone to never ever try to connect to it. At the moment e.g. while pressing the weather button, it starts connecting - quite annoying, especially if pressed by chance
c)create folders in programs menu (as e.g. the "games" folder) and then copy shortcuts into it
d)in the menu start - change from 7 shortcuts and 5 recent programs into 12 shortcuts and 0 recently opened programs.
Thank you for help!
Best regards,
Theriel
c) Go under "\Windows" direcotry and then under "\Start menu"
that's the direcotry tree
I meant programs menu - the one you get into by clicking start->programs. .
Any ideas about this as well as the other questions ?
b) there are several ways to kill all data connections. you can use something like the Advanced Config Tool and disable the data connection setup on the phone. Or you can use a tool like MoDaCo's NoData tool. Search the forums you will find your answer.
c) It is where "wonderiuy" said it is. For the icons in Programs you need to go one level deeper in the start menu. My Device -> Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs. There you will find links to all the icons when you go to Start Programs.
Thanks a lot! I have also a small question: is there any reason for which I shouldn't enable all the power managements that there are in Advanced Config Tool?
I would be still grateful for answering a) and d) :].
d) Disable large start menu
Start -> Settings -> Large start menu -> disable (or rather not enable) it

Do this,
1. Click the weather tab and click the location name at the top. You will get into ‘Select City’ window.
2. Tap the ‘Menu’ at the bottom right of the screen and choose ‘Weather Options…’ from the pop-up list.
3. Uncheck ‘Download weather data automatically*’
b) Easy solution: Go to Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Manage Networks -> and choose "Company Network" for "Programs with automatic internet connectivity use ....". Name of options may vary, because I use German ROM. Translation done by brain.exe on the fly
Thanks a lot mates! So, there is no way to solve my problem "d)" ?
see post #6 in your own thread (above). Does that not do what you asked?
That has nothing to do with choosing the programs you want to have listed in the menu start. Large menu is completely different thing which, by the way, I have disabled since the very beginning.

Clicking Start, Programs no longer brings up the Programs list on my Fuze. Instead, it takes me to the "Home" screen in TouchFlo (as if I had pressed the Home button.)
I think the Start menu link became "broken" after running \Windows\folderview.exe. (I was hoping to create a shortcut to the list of Programs.) Also, when running folderview.exe, the Programs list has 3 columns of icons...the 4-column tweak doesn't work with folderview.exe. However, clicking Start, Settings still works, and the tweak to enable 4 columns of icons is in effect for the list of Settings icons.
Does anyone have any clue as to what might have happened and how I might be able to fix it (short of performing a hard reset!) I've performed several soft resets to no avail....
Thanks for any help/suggestions!

possible solution
Try to open it in landscape mode (with keyboard out). If it works, you need to disable Large Start Menu in TouchFlo settings, it tends to freeze in portrait mode when you have too many shortcuts in the start menu. (you can alternatively remove somme shortcuts but the limit is way too low for my tastes )
Hope this helps
[Solved] Clicking Start, Programs won't open Programs list
Wonderful!!!! That fixed it. I guess the problem wasn't related to folderview.exe after all. Thanks so much!
Hi,
is there any way to access settings apart from the start menu?
I noticed that the settings icon disappeared in my start menu (I'm using custom WM6.5 ROM). Is there a way how to get it back?
Thanks in advance for all advices!
You do not provide enough information to really help you.
Info such as WHAT custom ROM, what interface, etc.
So with that, if you are running Manila there is a settings tab.
If you have flashed a ROM that took it out, ask in that thread for a fix.
If you cooked your own ROM and its missing, check your kitchen and recook.
As visible from my signature, I'm using Essential 3.3 and the icon used to be present in the start menu. One day it just disappeared.
Still, settings were accessable from Manila (settings tab -> more). However, after disabling Manila (using settings tab -> more -> today), there's no way how to enter settings again.
I'd just like to find a way how to get the icon back OR how to access the settings apart from the wm6.5 start menu. Thanks again.
I've find that by searching in Registery:
HKLM / SECURITY / SHELL / START INFO / HideSettings = 1
change the key to 0, and then, you'll have the WM Settings menu in start menu of WM6.5.
I have TD2 with new Rom HTC WM6.5, and it works well for me.
I hope it will be the same for you.
In Sense, go to settings and look at the botton left option taht says "all settings"
That one should take you to where you want to go (the Bronze settings menu screen for System, Home, Connctions etc...)
Hi
I have a two questions...
1 In my previous phones I use WM 6.1 and 6.5 with start button and quick program list and ram usage on top, now I have start button on bottom and I don't know how turn on program list and ram usage (normaly was on top in right corner)
2 Sometimes i use MemMaind, and in previous roms i have 2 options on bottom bar "Tools" and "Settings" now I have "Jump To" and "Tools" (show the same options :/), and i can't set that program (registner etc.)
How repair this function, or without reflashing rom back to old Start place and rest places?

Your version of windows does not play well with the task manager.
You have to hit it in just the right spot or the secondary menu will appear.
I am not able to remove the clock from the taskbar but have managed to make it analog with the enclosed cab. Just install to memory.
I gave up on the task manager and run QuickMenu instead which is a dropdown start menu that has a built in task manager.
Question: how do I remove the "Settings Tab" from the Home Screen Tab Slider?
I can get to the Settings by pressing the Windows-Logo physical button at the bottom of the phone and then choosing Settings... hence I don't need the Settings Tab on the slider. In Settings > Personalize > Home Screen Tabs ... can un-tick all but Home and Settings ... I want to do the equivalent of un-ticking Settings.
tried searching but get lots of results on how to get rid of everything else but the settings tab.
ANSWER: found it
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > HTC > Manila > Configuration > # (where # is a number from 0 to 16 based on where you have the Settings Tab in the Home Screen Tabs slider order)
Name-----------Data
================
Enable..............1
PageName.........Manila://settings.page
Title.................Settings
Change the Enable to a 0 (00000000)
WARNING: will need to re-enable this flag to add and remove tabs to the Home Screen Tabs slider ... but good way to stop someone from playing with my phone and adding the twitter addition.
You cant get rid of it (and it makes sense). Tell me p.ex. how you would access the windows-settings without the tab (unless you didnt activate "show normal settings in startmenu" via BSBTweaks or similar). Thats the reason why HTC made in untickable.

Couldn't you just click start and select Settings, even with a stock HD2?
Hi there.. How do we make the icons under Settings screen to be in alphabatic order..?
Ooops
I thought I have a smart idea...
The hint with removing the settings tab in the slider brought me to an other point.
I was always annoyed be the Home-Tab. I dont need it, since I can reach the home screen with the Home key (hardware key). So it is redundant. At lease I thought so.
I removed the Home-Tab - it worked immediately! And from that moment on the I couldn't reach the homescreen anymore.
Conclusio: Good Tweak - with unexpected result.
At least I am no longer annoyed by the home tab.

Hi,
i use a RNS named Blaupunkt New York 800. It´s running Windows CE 6. When i access the windows through a startscript i can´t run the Explorer.exe.
Also when i try to run any software where i have to set a directory there only shows up a white frame with nothing in it. No folders or files are shown.
Is there a chance to make the existing explorer.exe work?

If you tell me how you are able to "access windows through a script" I may be able to help you as I have a different brand that runs the same code as your system (your system is a re-branded advuv630). If you tell me how you are accessing it I can get it to work for you. I have a decrypted firmware for that system and its almost exactly the same as the advuv630. So I can probly use the same method you are using to access and get something working for you.
--thesh0ck
Edit: Its General and DVD-Rating on the advuv630, not general and bluetooth as I stated below. So try that first.
Go to settings menu, hit the following butons alterativly 6x (twelve total presses) General -> Blueooth -> General -> Bluetooth etc...
This will take to to the system menu.... where you can disable the requirement to have the parking brake on to watch movies and other things, I wouldnt change much other than that here.
This is what you want though:
You can also press time and volume in the same sequence and you will get right into the wince start menu screen with no hacks required. Its built into the unit.
If time and volume dont work, try all of the combinations (it will only take a few mins to try them all), one will work. Select two of the top row settings buttons and go back and forth hitting them 6x each till you find it.
Hope this helps. I just foind these two hidden options the other day....
Hi there, ho to disable the requirement to have the parking brake on to watch movies??? Is it on "brake override" menu?
