Clock on Titlebar in Today Screen - General Questions and Answers

Can someone please tell me if having the "Display the clock on the titlebar in all programs" option checked in the Clock & Alarms settings of Windows Mobile 6.1 will normally display the clock on the titlebar on the Today screen?
I ask because I recently uninstalled Spb Pocket Plus 4.1, and since that time the clock never displays in the titlebar on the Today screen (though it does in every other program). Instead I get the battery indicator. I've tried checking and unchecking the option in the Clock & Alarms settings, as well as have re-installed and uninstalled Spb Pocket Plus several times. I've also attempted to check the registry for any residual Pocket Plus stuff (after uninstall) but haven't been able to come across anything.
When Pocket Plus is installed, the clock displays in all programs (including the today screen), whether or not I have the SpbPP Battery plugin enabled.
Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm using UltimateLaunch, and thus I don't have a clock on all my Today screen tabs, so it's important to me.
Thanks!

If you have Advanced Config installed, then lauch it, and select on Today > "Show on Title bar:" select Clock (default)
If not installed:
Code:
Restore clock on top bar
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=1 (enable)
"ShowTitleBarClock"=0 (disable)
from the Hermes wiki but should work for you too

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock didn't exist on my phone (and adding it as a DWORD value didn't seem to help). So I downloaded Advanced Config, and it works beautifully.
Thanks!

Glad I could help you

HTC Fuze: Clock on title bar

I want the time to show up on the title bar in all programs. I checked this option, but it is not working. I have restarted the phone, but nothing. When I go into the clock settings, the time DOES show up in the title bar, but when I close the settings, it is no longer there. Any ideas?
I have this option selected as well and it is working just fine. Maybe you have it disabled in a registry setting or in Advanced Config somewhere?
Ok, it's getting stranger. I went into the Today Settings, under Items, I checked Date to appear on the Today screen. That solved my problem; however, now when I go into the Today settings, Date is unchecked, but is still showing up on the Today screen (which is fine with me, just weird.) Hmmm.
It's not showing in TF3D title bar. Everywhere else it appears to show up.
I'm enabling it under settings/system/clock though.

If you are using a battery monitor that might replace the clock in TF3D. Also, Advanced Config under Today, you can specify if you want clock or battery to show on the Today screen.

Help me can't see notification throught softkey

I have a problem since i use smartphones with notifications and reminders : when it came no problem i can dissmiss it etc but if i see it after ,the softkey shows "notification" only few millisecondes then shows the normal softkey for 3secondes (i will soon try without custom softkey) and it loop. Futhermore when it happens i can't see any notification icon in taskbar (i don't known if icon should be there) It append for all notification and reminders (task calendar missed called) and in my two device htc p3450 and etenX800 and with both wm6 and 6.1 the only app i have always in the two device is QuickMenu 2.7 (very nice) (i will try to remove it). the problem is not always but is geating worst when i install more apps(maybe one of them is the problem).
Does somebody knoes how to fix this. or at least.
Is there a solution to make a notification window active without the softkey and without icon. Is there a solution to always show notifications Icon.
Thanks and good work(very good site full of information).
help me please
if something is not clear i can even try to send a video of the pb
What phone, OS, ROM, and reminders? If you are using custom softkeys, try removing them.
thank to help me
Curently my phones 3450 WM6 latest official rom
and EtenX800 WM6.1 CustomLight Rom(i had official before)
i have this problem with all these configurations and quite all notifications and reminders (ex : missed call, task reminders,the notification a the first windows startup who ask for sending info to microsoft ,etc...)
the notification which is the most blocked is the one generated by quickmenu when i tap on his battery icon.Futhermore as i haven't seen this problem in any forum and as i have this problem whit very diferent configuration (OS PHONE ROM PROG)i think this probleme come from Quickmenu which is the only common point i see.
I am asking myself if somebody else has already seen this? answer will be welcome
I have removed custom softkey and i have seen the problem again
I Have Found
I have disabled the QuickMenu taskbar icon which indicate free memory and battery and the problem has disapeared.
But it's a shame i loved to see my free memory ram in the taskbar.
Is somebody know a app or a way to show free memory ram in text and in Mb on the taskbar. (i already found wktask which doesn't work properly)
Hello,
I discover this topic which is close to my small issue: since I migrate to a Manila 2D based Rom (HTC Polaris / P3650), the reminders notifications pop up as expected but aren't anymore replacing the left softkey on my today screen (when the notifications pops up, everything is ok, but if I don't immediately press any key, it definitely vanished from the today).
The taskbar and menu bar icons are ok but since this notification disapears from the today's softkey, I'm not anymore abble to directly open the notification's menu, nor the text notification.
Is there any registry key where I could fix it ?

Change clock look issue

I have changed the OEM clock to a "diamond clock" this worked perfect, and before the "diamond clock" i installed a "glass clock", this also worked, but when i want to go back to my glass clock it says already installed, and if i install again my diamond clock still appears. How to change between installed clocks ?
Think you need to keep the cab files on your storage card.
Always uninstall the clock first from the list of uninstalled programs (that will get you the default clock) then soft reset before installing he new clock.
same for sliders/icons/themes etc.
(By the way to remove it from your list uninstall your current clock followed by reset. reinstall he diamond clock over the top, reset, then remove the diamond clock and voila you should be back to just the default clock and no others in the list.)

Hide or remove battery icon in WM 6.5 near clock in top panel?

I try all settings in control panel, many tweak programs, registry settings and etc, but none hide this icon in my WM 6.5 firmware (I use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524032 ). In WM 6.0 and earlier tweaks works good, but in WM 6.5 the battery button shows all the time.
I use line indicator for display battery charge and this icon waste my space
How I can hide (remove) the battery icon in Windows Mobile 6.5 series?
Hi,
I hope I'm not late - anyway - let's have it here for other people interested in solution...
I have changed the reg key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
"LimitedClock"=dword:00000000
After soft reset, th battery is gone and the clock is always shown (whenever you see the taskbar)
Cheers,
p.s. -The strange thing happens - I saw the "TaskBa r" in my post and I wanted to edit and delete the space, but when I go in to edit message mode - the space disapears ??? Anyway - the "TaskBar" in HKLM registry is one word without space...
thanks to this.!
This isn't help me on WM 6.5 (CE OS 5.2.24001). The registry entry was 1, I set to 0, but the battery icon is always shown left of clock
Most grateful.
Worked for me on my TD2 (OS 5.2.21887).

cookie monster and bsb tweak together???

i'm a rookie and i don't know if i'm asking these question right:
i just installed cookie monster w/cht editor (all new version) and after some searching and reading here in the forum, i fell in love with the bsb tweaks offering. but after just about a minute running on my hd2(unlock); correct me if i'm wrong, but i think bsb tweaks and cookie monster installed together complicates more my device specially on "auto lock". anyone have these cab both on their device. i first installed the cookie monster and arranged everything, then after installing bsb, i have to do two times the "unlock". after some checking i found out the "default setting lockscreen" of cht editor was turned "on". i think these two cabs should not be installed together. what do you think, thanks
The .cab's install together is no problem. I would say, that the most users,who have Cookies Home Tab also have BsB-Tweaks running.
It's only a question of settings - Autolock uses "normal" Windows Lock in BsB, and Cookie added Manilalock - and if you change on both... then 2 lockscreens are running at the same time.
If you'd have two switches for your lamp in your living room,you would know,that only one switch should be switched to get light. Both would switch it off...and in case of lockscreen - the lampwould get the double power...and you know what happens to a lamp with to much energy...
So - if you use CHT-Lockscreen - then switch off Autolock in BsB and all is fine
Well, i have Bsb and CHT installed, in CHT go to lockscreen option and turn off Enable default lockscreen and turn on Enable CHT lockscreen.. dont understand why these two aplications should not run together..

That's an excellent explanation!
You have probably turned on (or not turned off) the standard windows lock. If you want to use the CHT lockscreen then disable the standard windows lock. This can be done in BSB tweaks and CHT Editor also has an option to disable it.
Thanks for answer also. I thought BSB Tweaks would conflict with Cookies Home Tab and Editor. No issues. These are great apps!
