Hi
I am new to this forum. Recently got an XDA exec, and finally managed to get Sat Nav to work on it last night with a bluetooth GPS device.
To start the sat nav software I currently have to go into file explorer and start it from there - how can I put a shortcut on my mainscreen to start it from the main screen?
Thanks for your help

shortcuts
you can use : traylaunch, ilauncher, spb pocketplus or wisbar advanced desktop.
but best of all would have been the search option that is available here on this forum.
good luck with your device and enjoy it
Hello everyone,
I really need your help guys, seems tha it is possible to do any kind of change on xda exec but the only thing i manage to do is to upgrade the all rom thanks to your tips and nothing else.
I would like to personalize the bar tray with more icon like rotate screen but when i try your .cab files( i just uprgade it to the latest wm6 crossbow) reset and no change.
I am sure i miss something can anyone post a full procedure to explain how to use that hacks?
Thanks in advance this forum is amazing!!
using a program called tray launch you can add icons to the bar ont he bottom.
to add screen rotate i know you can use tweaks 2k2 to do that. that a good allround customizing program too.
you can find tray launch on the forum somewhere.. actualy in one of my posts too.
Use PHM Tray Launch, or if you're crazy, VJTrayLaunch.

Totally new to this please help. GPS Toggle installs to the Wm 6.5 Today screen. Does anyone have any idea how to change that so that it installs to the SPB Mobile Shell 3 Lifestyle page? I'm using PHM RegEdit on a cooked WM6.5 rom.
Also if i dont have it selected to be on the today screen in the CHome Editor panel/page setup could i maybe then set it in SPB MS3?
Any idea?
for some programms...they don't work in combination with sense.
they appear changed in winmo but once you add a quicklink there is the old annoying icon.
anyway overall Bing SUCKS and always slows down my HD2.
I could change the Icon with HComber.
Thanks, but hcomber didn't work, too.
Any idea where the icon is located?
Same problem for the Voice Recorder.
Try this :
1) Make a duplicate of the shortcut (e.g : "Garmin Mobile XT.lnk" when duplicated, Copy of
"Garmin Mobile XT.lnk")
2) Rename "Garmin Mobile XT.lnk" to "Garmin XT.lnk"
3) Use CSMI or JWMD to change the icon of the new shortcut created...
4) Now, add the newly created shortcut and see whether the icon has changed in the
Sense shortcut in the home tab menu! ( I did this and it worked...for a couple of my
shortcuts that changed in WM but didn't in Sense)
5) If it works, now delete the old shortcut and you're good to go...
***Hope this helped...

Thanks, but how to find the shortcuts? Where are they? For example, where can i find the bing shortcut?
Try looking for the .lnk in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs...
It worked! Many thanks!

You can easily change the camera icon using CSMI. the new icon just must not have the same name.
CSMI? Please help. I using the JD program...i can change it in WM but not quicklinks.

Can you expand on this please?
I have used the other method on this thread (ie, creating shortcuts); but this way my start menu gets cluttered with all the shortcuts due to me not wanting to delete the original "system files" - I get a warning (eg/ Word mobile, MSN Messenger).
What is the best way to get around this problem?
You just have to do the following:

What if CSMI can't apply an icon?
Delete all files located in \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher
Change that icon with CSMI
Remove the application icon from the homescreen
Just add back it back in Sense homescreen.. that's it!
That, however, applies only to HTC Sense: if you want Windows Mobile Start Menu icon to be updated (this applies to v1.2+ too), just soft-reset your phone!
Update!!
I've found a bug/feature in manila which prevents some icons to be changed.
Since many users were complaining about not being able to change some icons I've started investigating the problem and found that if you try to use a custom icon which have the same filename of one of the images found in \Windows then Manila will always load that instead of your customized one.
In order to easily fix the problem, just rename your icon
This bug affects ONLY manila, therefore in the start menu everything will look fine BUT in the Homescreen you will always have the original icon!

Ok... I've got to the bottom of this now.
After changing the icons seemingly ok last night by renaming them, I turned the phone on again this morning and some of them had reset... nightmare!
To solve the problem, I used a combination of renaming the icons and deleting the relevant .bmg files in \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher (ie, following the guide you quoted).
For anyone reading this in the future, I will make two notes:
1. If you can't find the relevant .bmg file in the ProgLauncher folder; you simply have to rename your icon and then change it with CSMI - it will then appear in the folder and should change the icon with no problems (you won't have to delete anything!).
2. If a .bmg file does exist in the ProgLauncher folder, just delete it and change the icon with CSMI. If after a reset the icon goes back to the original, just change the icon name.
Doing this I came across a problem with the 'Bing' logo. The program icon doesn't populate in my CSMI list - even without filtering. As I write this I have not yet searched about this particular problem (it seems that this thread was started for this issue though!); but if anyone can help, it would be appreciated.
Finally there is a way to disable the startbutton and/or the close button on winmo 6.5.x builds (i'm on 23544 right now and it works!)
