Okay,
I may stand alone here, but I HATE the new start menu that comes with WM6.5.
Does anyone know of a way to get rid of it and go back to the functional old style one from WM6.1?
Thanks

QuickMenu 2.8 from China!!!Best start-menu and task-switcher[UPDATE 02-03-2009]
&
Some Tips of Using QuickMenu.
Also I assume there should be some regitweaks to re-activate the classic StartMenu, keep searching and post here!
Start -> Settings -> Today
Click on the 'Items' tab at the bottom.
Uncheck 'Windows Default' to get rid of the crappy sliding menu, and while you are here, select the options you want on the Today page, and arrange them in whatever order you require.
Click OK until you are back at the Today Start page.
Viola!

You can't do it.
The new menu is selected as 'Windows Default'. When it is selected, it unchecks all the others.
It's all or nothing. Old menu style and move stuff about, or new menu style but you are stuck with its layout.
you havent understand, in windows default(actually i like this new home screen) i want to reoreder "tabs", first is picture(it says no photos because i dont know how to change default folder in pictures and videos) second music....and i want that first is clock than text than music than pictures...
so i dont want to change order of old homescreen, i want to change order in new win default home screen!!
It can only be done through a registry tweak.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome
And change keyname ExtensibilityXML to
<Plugins Order="CClock;CMyPhotos;CMusic;CWelcomeCenter;CPhone;CVoicemail;CText;CEmail;CAppointments;CHomeFavs;CWindowsLive" CPRFileName="Titanium" DisplayStyle="Titanium" />
Or similar, depending on what is in it in the first place.
Go to Start -> Settings -> Today -> 'Items', uncheck 'Windows Default' and press OK (To deactivate it)
Go to Start -> Settings -> Today -> 'Items', and check 'Windows default' then press OK (To restart it)
The Clock is now at the top!
P.S. This was discovered by messing around with the 6.5 emulator images, and using VS remote tools to read/edit the emulator's registry. Just check the keys on a real phone are the same or similar.
danke schon
Or Dotfred's Start Menu which runs as a service. No .exe to start.Running from the start button.
I´m quite happy with start menu of 6.5 you can reorder it or what ever you want
But also htchome is nice and less RAM eating!
Hi
I like the new wm 6.5 start menu, But is there any way to change the hexagon shape icon arrangements to straight rows.

may i ask for same thing,
AGAIN?
i mean - old wm 5-6 menu method?
if someone doensn't know - 2 mb mem is lost by that new..by that fail.
lets say i need these 2 mb.
i am not interested in cpr edits - it is not that idea(cutting cpr insides off provides these 2 mb, BUT - it is not good idea).
do not tell me about quick menu - i am using it since i found it, but - again - IT IS NOT the idea - 2 mb is lost by that ridiculous m$ menu, still.
old shell32 and aygshell is not method too - provides instability and functions loss.
i checked EVERY line of dlls related to find potential clue, there is NO reg value in hexes that provides old menu there....
sad to see, that cotulla stopped working on it...
i assume, it may be something not really possible, then. ;/

dude, plz..i am rommaker,
i can clearly see why i want what i want - 6.5 provides outstanding flash(vide - flashtros, cracktros) experience i need;
it provides amazing performance of emulators i am using(snes, sega, atari xl, neogeo etc).
it provides very good pdf and cbr loading times too.
my question is clearly technical.
i am using asus p525 and i can UNDERCLOCK it to (still) have 100% snes emulation with maxxed out sound on 23017(try this on htc lol), it is amazing, trust me.
i need that power, BUT i need more RAM free.
i got rid of every thing i could like titanium, keyboards, wisplite, useless m$ today plugins, and much more, and i still need MOAR memory free.
of course, if someone knows, how to make wm03 mem management available to use with 6.x, i would be pleased hearing it...
then i could have 80 mb mem free, not 29 ffs.
are there GOOD maniacs to tell me some NOT common ideas?
xdadev been such place...long time ago.
btw - my m8 made THIS(yes, it is 6.5, and, yes it is OLD menu ;p, but..disadvantages of method used made it just proof of concept):

Well Dude. I don't care about emulators, games and so on. If you can come up with some interesting featues of 6.5 I 'll be glad to read about it.Hmm. I just started to make a ROM too, 6.5 I din't like it.

At least you found a way to resurrect the old menu style.
More menu stuff here and here
Nothin,
Me too already stuck on the same issue for a while.
By now what I know is:
You can kill the WM65 start menu in several ways, like using WkTask or MagicButton, or null the cpr.
But once you kill it you must have a replacment, otherwise will lose UI. By now QuickMenu is still best replacement.
I've only noticed that on some Samsung Ominia devices running earlier builds of WM65 they can recall the WM61 classic start menu by a start.exe.
I've asked somebody to upload that file with no response.
I've also downloaded several ROMs from Modaco, but I can not use HTC ROM Emige Editor toeextract files from them.
For more info and thread links, please just search for my post in the past month.

If you've used any of my roms, you know what I like to put in them.
Here is my second build that I got working using Whiterat's Touch components ingegrated into the base 318 ROM.
Please give it a try, and post what issues you find. The more testing now, the better the kitchen
We're also beta testing the new kitchen, which will get updated once we are sure it's relatively bug-free.

Pandora rom with touchflo. This isn't a release, so if you're not comfortable with my stuff, don't worry about it.

I only include the nb.nbf to keep it simple (for me anyway ) If you have another rom package, just replace the nb file with this one
Not bad! Definitely seems faster than the other Touchflo roms. Wi-Fi seems fine; bluetooth sync's ok to my pc. Calls seem fine.
Sometimes I have to double-tap the ok to exit a program; I don't remember doing that before. Not a huge deal, though.
Did you mean to leave the O2 connection settings integrated? No big deal; I deleted them (I'm on Cingular).
Is the cube integrated in this one? It doesn't launch on the softbutton.

Flash the ROM and find out. If you don't want to do that, then visit some of Matt's other ROM threads and see if Live is something he's put into them. If he has, then Live might be in this one.
It doesn't matter - this is a beta test, just to see what does and does not work, so the final version will be bug free and the kitchen will also be bug free.
i flashed it already. and i was checking it out and did not notice any windows live. also there is two calculators.

True, and true. I was thinking about extracting the OE calc and giving a choice, but haven't gotten that far yet.
Windows Live was just too big to fit it in with the touch files

With this rom everthing works fine but I am unable to set the tones (anytone), i go to the sounds section and select the tones i want for each action but when i click ok the window does not close at all and ALL the tones I set revert back to the default tones/settings
and another thing is the boot up time Is kinda long .......................... hope these get solved in the final release

Boot time doesn't suprise me, cause this is a FAT load. It's got parts of the kitchen sink too. I'm afraid to see how many files it has
i have trouble with the ok/X button ... :-(
i realigned the screen like in the other touchflo but no luck...
and also some freezes... overall is much worse than the one in NBD 7.4 but it`s a beta, i hope it gets better

If I remember, 7.4 is based on the 1413 base, and has a much easier transition to the touch software since it's a much newer build. 318 has quite a few differences that need ironed out
Do you have the ok issue on every screen? I only have a problem in Phone, but otherwise the alignment issue seems typical.
Anyone else see similar / different issues on this topic?
in most of the screens, it`s verry annoying to have to click ok many times.
and if i click right in the corner sometimes i activate todat plugins (like i`ve clicked in the middle of the screen) or even the right buttom key
Mattk_r:
With regards to people having ringtone problems (as I did) it is to do with the Lockstream DRM client in OEMAPPS.
If you look at my OEMAPPS folder I sent to you, that should give you the answers.
Remove too much - Loose Quickdial
Remove too little - Cant set tones

UPDATE 06/23/08
I'm having some issues with a few things. As usual, time is amongst them. In any case, the LZX version is just too slow for my taste... but maybe it's because I've been using a small pagepool with it.
In any case, attached is a teaser. It's the today screen that I've been waiting for.
As far as bugs go:
LZX version: Will not display the proper XIP version. I had a problem with the LZX compression and had to use one of Aserg's LZX ROMs as a skeleton on to which to graft the ROM. This worked but introducted this issue. I'm assuming that it's an issue with the cecompr.dll used and that Aserg had hex edited the XIP number unto the imgfs.bin.
All the "full versions" That today screen is not Landscape compatible so you will not see it properly when in landscape mode and in the today screen. Also, the background interferes with the start menu's functionality. I'm working to fix that now, though. Although, it's time for sleep...
Hey guys. Just messing around with a possible full ROM (as supposed to my usual stripped ROMs.) For now, it's based on the Diamond ROM.
It has the following so far:
Arcsoft 4 (I'm having some problems with 5... my MMS stopped working, even though they work with Just2Clean.)
Custom looking HTC Home 2.1 with proxy patch for those who use it on Tmobile's network - This is changing into something else... You'll see it when the author posts it.
Big start menu icons
Big X-Button Icons
black calculator - (My ROM users know I don't ever include calculators. lol)
PocketXpdf
TMPCP
Office 6.1 + OneNote
PHM RegEdit
Advanced Config
Audio Manager
Battery Status - This will be PART of the today screen...)
Esmertec Jbed + OperaMini 4.1 (4.1 was not buggy, the newer Esmertec I was using with it was. This is a stable version.)
HTCAlbum
Internet Sharing
TotalCommander (newest version I believe)
VoiceNotes (something else I tend to remove... I'm not sure if I'll keep it...)
NETCF v3.5
RandomAccess
Oxios Hibernate/CloseApp
This will come in 4 flavors at first.
1. Standard JustMe
2. LZX JustMe - A little slower, but with much more space due to the LZX compression.*
3. A UPX'ed version - Adds a little more speed and storage, but not as much as LZX.
4. A Just2Clean variant with LZX compression. Basically, the 70MB free one.
I MIGHT add a 5th version, a 'la Ttran's biggy if people tell me what they want in it.
*LZX compression is giving me a strange bug that causes the wrong WinCE version to show under the about tab.
The list looks good ivan... only things i wouldn't like would be Total Commander and PHM Regedit, since i use the excellent Resco File explorer which includes both functionalities in 1 app
Btw... speed & Voice dialing would be nice to be included ??
Thanks again for your hard work!

Speed & Voice dialing - Agreed
TotalCommander can also edit the registry, but I prefer using PHM Regedit. Resco is great, I agree, but it's not free, so I can't cook it in. I might make a version like this, though... might.
Your ROM looks very interesting may I suggest adding HTC RandomAccess to your ROM to make it handier browsing through the contacts.
Estimated time of release?
i would use this , i agree with gambit, too... icontact or something for contact browsing would be nice. other than that, it seems to meet all my necessary apps, nothing more, nothing less.

EDIT: OK... the letter images that appear in the center for randomaccess are broken, so I'm gonna have to fix that, too... Thanks for reminding me, though, or I would have never caught that.
EDIT2:
Estimated time: Whenever I get to it. I'm a perfectionist, and I tend to have too many projects going on at once... plus I rarely have time to mess around with things... and I'm very disorganized... sooooo.... soon. lol
I have a working version that I may be able to fix by tonight... So sooner than I even thought maybe...
Which reminds me... I have to update my signature. Make it J2C, J2S and kitchen and maybe a bigger donate button.

Out on a limb
I know HTC Home is kind of a standard for Today Screen, and I used it for a while.....but, I'm kind of liking the functions of BS. It doesn't take as much power or space and I can configure it with a little HTML.
I started using it shortly after flashing J2C and really like the space. Plus I have more space on the SD for music, since I'm not using HHC now. Just a thought. I sent a screen shot of my modified Aurora theme. I'm running BS with rlToday for the clock, Weather panel, both integrated in BS, and "BS Home" for the bottom buttons.
I also like Network Folders cooked in (runs smoother).
Does TCPMP include plug-ins?
That's my two cents ........
wm5torage
perhaps a program that most people don't use...but it does benefit me personally, since it lets me use the phone as a removable usb drive at work...where I can't install activesync...so that i can transfer files as need be...and occasionally use portableapps, like portable firefox through the removable drive...since the work network won't allow users to install software on the computer.
wm5torage is a fairly small program, so it shouldn't take up too much room...
PIM Backup
for those that might flash every so often, but don't connect to outlook to sync, PIM Backup is a great way to backup contacts, sms', and calendar info...

Actually, I'd be ALL for it if you can provide me with the needed files. I've been looking for something like this, and although I'm good at making things work, I'm not good at making them look pretty. ^_^
Is the weather panel proxy compatible?
If it is, this will be great!
Network Folders?
As far as the plugins, it will. The version I have on it right now is a place holder until I can find a more decent package, though.

All I have are the cab files. I've been reading a lot of the post in the Prophet forum for BS themes. prscott1 has quite a few different themes up and knows this a lot better than I do.
I'm sorry I misspoke earlier, I did mean networkplugin; HTC or Schaps. They both seem to work fine. Schaps is just 5K smaller as a cab.
This is where I got most of it. I just use weather panel in place of using UL as a plugin. I really can't take credit for someone else's work. I did a little rewriting of the HTML for the bottom buttons though.
Weather Panel does have an option for proxy settings.
Just what you need....another project.

This is the HTCHome BS theme. It's the same theme I'm running on my previous post just different lines showing. The message buttons are included and can be changed just by tap and hold on them.
I've attached the latest BS and the HTCHome theme, the HTCHopmeskin and the XML file are placed in the BS folder and the HTC Home files are placed in the \windows dir. It basically is editing the XML file to point to the progs you want to use. most of it is set for you. The on thing is the weather tab and the prog tab. I've seen a few setups with UL and as you can see I have it as an option in my setup.
Hope this helps. Keep up the excellent work.

I used that theme for a while, and I really like it. Using BS for themes is a bit easier, assuming you know how to edit the .xml theme. I second using BS instead of HTCHome, more customization.
Looks, maybe I will use it when it is released Still no success with the kitchen and your j2c files

That's the list so far since I'm at work and can't mess around with it. As you can see it's a semi stripped ROM. No games, but things that I use on a daily basis have been added. All this and you still get 50MB+ of storage free. This is mostly a "I use it, it goes into the ROM" kind of ROM so far, but let me know what you'd like to go into it and you think should be removed and I'll think about making those changes happen. Remember, it depends on whether I also believe it's a useful app or not.

sounds like an incredible ROM! I am more of a BatteryStatus / Mortscript fan than I am of HTC Home, but I do like the touchflo scrolling. I would still enjoy trying your stuffed ROM. there are soo many great BS themes available now - some imitations of WM7, iphone, etc. I have added Ultimate launch recently (mainly for apps launching) so I have a BS/UL combo that is driving my latest themes. I'll post some screen shots when I have a chance (at work now) to see if anyone is interested.
Edit: I'm uploading a few screenshots of my latest (and colorful) BS theme that has UL, todayagenda, searchtoday and RSSNews integrated within.
first, second and third screenshots are the clock page with various rows showing.
fourth, fifth and sixth screenshots show some of my UL sides and cube in action.
I've been in a colorful mood lately.
The only thing I would require out of a BS theme would be the message indicators which I use quite heavily. I know that pappamopps uses them, so maybe he can add them to this BS theme being as nice as he is.
I'm on for this too if you remove remote desktop cuz I think it's useless! I would keep the voice notes though since it's kinda funny sometimtes to record sth with the phone...I'm exactly searching for something like this with the newest build since I have most of the apps in a folder called cabs on my wing Cuz in my opinion everyone needs different progs but this sounds like a good base to build a customized ROM on!
Hi,
HTC removed many of the original animations when switching between tabs because they slowed things down too much.
Here is a demonstration of them:

You can get them back by installing this early Diamond Manila:

It works fine on my Touch Pro with tweaks installed, but it does slow things down a bit. I guess you need to decide whether having fancy animations is worth losing a bit of speed. Choice is yours!

I don't see any differences from mine

Can this cab file be easily removed if need be?

The installation begins, it gets about 80% of the way and then I get the following error :
"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions."
Same here.
I didn't try, but maybe you have to disable touch flo 3d before install this application..
Yep had to disable tf3d before installing. also installed it to my card but dont think that makes any odds. Uninstalled about 5 minutes later due to the incredible slowness..
Just realised this is my first post. Hello everybody *waves*
Where do I disable it?
go to start / settings then go into today, then the items tab and untick TouchFLO 3D and then OK it.
Animations are the same
This is not offering any improvement on the TP.
All options maintain the same.
If you even install this and you reinstall the old animations the stability of your phone will decrease.
In order to update my weather database for example.
After the update i'm not able to find any SQL database related to the cities to add any new city that is not installed as a standard.
*Touchflo will not have all similair settings from the original rom when this is/was installed.*
For example :
My gf has a diamond and i have tried to install the weather database editor and tried to change my registry similair to the one of the diamond but i'm not able to change it back as it was. * Before i installed the tweak, the tool worked !*
I'm going to hard reset my TP and will not install this again. Too bad though, because it looked like something useful on youtube eventhough that everything almost maintained the same, but this is not really handy the uninstall because it wasted more that I hoped for.
Hi everyone,
I'm a long time flasher, short time cook and i thought id release some rom's for everyones consumption.
any advice or tips/hints about the rom are appreciated. Enjoy!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
23008 & hybrid: lots of updates from a leaked topaz 6.5 at&t rom and a few tweaks
21921:well id heard some good things about the sys version, so, id thought id give it a try, and man im happy i did! its got some decent speed improvements and fixes the icon for an installed app showing up issue, and stays in the settings menu when you close a setting! spinlock and extendir were causing the ie download issues and storage card access problem so out they went. ( and it doesnt seem slower at all with them out..) and with joshs scrolling files and some reg tweaks i did,this might be the fastest rom ive realised yet!
added: based on 21921, josh super speed scrolling,audio boost, many reg tweaks.
removed: extendir, spinlock patching,many ir driver files/reg entries, back to standard 4 panel start menu.
fixed: programs showing after install, storage card access, stays in settings now.
stats: about 125mb's free storage and 66mb's free ram at boot.
*link below*
23004: Ok, well guess what everyone? ive got the new phone canvas in the rom! its faster then the previous one, looks nicer i think, and doesnt need any patch/fix for the call scrolling! i re did my base drivers off of josh's and tpc kitchen so the driver version is 2.34 now and various fix's and stuff... enjoy!
stats: got about 120mb's free and 55mb's ram at boot
23003: hey everyone just droping a newly cooked rom in your laps
seems a little smoother in the interface, but otherwise a minor update.
i updated the htc album from a jade rom and also the phonecanvas but, not really noticeable, but just an update
23001_2: ok, extendir fully working, and updated touch input so it has the keyboard icon.
23001: Well, ive been gone for like 2 weeks and man if roms fly! 2 versions out since the last one... well after doing some reading ive included Shadrac's extendir filter and neos2007's driverpack beta2 along with a few new tweaks, updates and apps and dispite what i thought about my last rom this ones is FASTER! im amazed, now im not quite sure whats done it exactly, probaly a combination of things but im sure you'll all enjoy!
Stats: Compressed, 104mb free stoarge, 62 megs free ram (102mb total).

seems to me that if you re-align screen again after first soft-reset it makes it a little quicker?
cycle power after soft-reset to get to full speed..?
support you,you will be great
Thanks for sharing your creation. Will look at it later. Good luck in cooking.
Great release! Good luck bud!
Congrats dude on your first release!
Congrats on your new release. Please tell us, what are the ingredients in the new ROM?. Is it CHOME & MANILA?.
Thank you.
congrats! another new chef in the Kaiser community
So far the only issue I have found is the text in dciBattery is in a foreign language Otherwise working good so far...
edit: Unable to change ringtone. On OK, there is a fast scrolling of the options but then it defaults to Ring01. OK does not close the Sounds and Notifcations window. You have to go to the menu screen and select Today or another option...
good luck m8 everything you want.. just ask me

hehe, well im using 3.57 and it didnt work on every driver..
i couldnt patch the nk, ddi, wce_pmem and ones pertaining to bluetooth, wifi and usb, but i patched all the others, it just took trial and error, im curious if the spinlock patch would work on the nk and ddi if they were later versions in regard to the mem hack.
damn man, i just now saw this! congrats on your first release will try your rom tomorrow

theres few things i need help on for the next release, loading a theme at fresh start, i can only seem to get it to install a tsk file, and would be gratefull to know how to have multiple 3rd party titanium panels at fresh start (do i need to cut & paste entries into the cpr or have them installed at boot?)
also anybody good at resizing exe's or dll's?
BTW, link fixed

fix
today im try 21815_fixed ROM
My impressions: not clearly why there is no office.
The album does not play video files. Photos in an album are shown badly-vaguely.
Management seemed insufficiently accurate. Icons of installed programms appear in the menu "start" after softreset.
The weather established by me in the titan has not earned. 2 versions. connected, but no weathericons. only "+++++".
The theme was pleasant "utopicdesign"
add: i need bluetothftp.
i install bluetothftp-dont work wifi. uninstall bluetothftp-work wifi.
Very wonderfool ROM
Can u pubblic any screenshoot ?
I had problems finding a working version of QuickMenu for HD2, so I modified my own .cab a bit. I hope this will help others as well. Im attaching a version for norwegian ROM and also for the WWE.
If anyone want to use it on other languages, the only modification after installation is to change 0409 to your own local code in the files:
Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.0409.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.0409.mui
and then in the settings of QuickMenu change the path for your local start menu.
so do we lost the original wm6.5 start menu?
no, the original start menu is stil present if you click on the text "start" instead of the actual start menu icon. you can also choose yourself in the settings whether the start menu hardware key will open Quick Menu, or windows' original start menu =)
This is awesome! Thx
Only issue I don't like is that it removes the built in taskmanager that can be accessed by pressed the top right corner by the battery.
Can't both be present?
Does somebody have a volume buttons problem after installing?
ROM 1.48.405 (and smth.)
Niiiice!
There are a couple of spelling errors in the Quick menu in WWE:
'Execute' rather than 'Excute'
'Options' rather than 'Option'.
Is there a way to show user defined icons rather than the system defaults in the menus as many will have installed a different set?
Great!
It works very, very well with HTC HD2!
Congratulations and thanks a lot!
JC
Thanks, works very well in conjuction with WM 6.5.x (except the interception of the close button)
Very finger friendly when you set the "Menu item edge" to 15 or more.
Thanks for sharing

i dont know about this, but why would you need it when this menu got its own task manager, both a list of open programs and a link to "task manager" ? =)

*working* QuickMenu for HD2
hi guys, I've seen several threads on QM for HD2. I've been using a version which I picked up somewhere, and has worked flawlessly for all HD2 ROMs I've tried so far.
I also commented in this thread.
Quote from that thread:
I've been using QM since I saw it in one of nrg28 ROMs. the version I downloaded (no clue where from) behaves differently:
- no action if I tap the battery button, other than notification bar showing
- QM is activated by pressing left-top on taskbar (where previous Start was, now typically black area)
- and, and this is the best part imho, it is activated by a short press on the Windows HW button no need to reprogram long press of Send or End button. brilliant!

for me the original had size and placement issues. this is the only version i found out to work on my HD2 after a few small tweaks of the cab
Hi
I just try it on my Hd2 with Greek language. Is working ok but I see no letters
at all. How can I see the letters? how can I do that with the language?
Can you give me some details how to do it since I'm new om WM devices?
Thank you.
I added the files below. mui for the Polish language and complete an application with the Polish language
Excellent app., this is what I need instead of SPB Mobile Shell (worked great on my Touch Diamond 1, but not on the HD2).
Been looking for these features
- Closing apps from the Today screen
- Reboot function
And handy (but less important)
- Starting apps
- Managing connections
Thank you !
