Remove Clear Storage Icon in Settings

Hello. Does anyone know how to remove the clear storage icon in the settings panel; or how to add/delete any icons in the settings panel for that matter.

Any Solution for this
Hi,
I am also looking a way to remove this icon as with this icon any normal user ( my kids) can reset pda.
Regards,
Rhyme

In RegEdit,
HKLM\ControlPanel
There you will see what is shown under Settings. I believe that setting the value of Group to 1, 2, or 3 will list that App to be under Personal, System, or Connections, respectively. Or you can just delete the App folder and it will not show. Just a hunch..

Hi,
Thanks for reply. I tried it and deleted whole folder "Clear Storage" in HKLM\ControlPanel and then done reset but still it is there in setting/system

What if you tried to set the Group value to 0? Or delete the App (located in \windows?)

You can't delete it because app is in rom... If you set Group value to 0 then you will have Icon in Settings->Personal.
I have one question how remove Clear storage from ROM Folders? If I delete ClearStorage.exe from OEM\OEMDrivers but I can't find file where is entry for register setup...

You need to delete 2 registry entries and 3 files before you cook. If it's a cooked rom then removing both reg keys should remove ClearStorage.
HKLM\ControlPanel\Clear Storage
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCCPL\Applet4
Keep in mind that Applet4 can me a different applet in different roms so before you go and delete it make sure that the string value for Name is Clear Storage. Hope this helps.

No this doesn't help because Im check alot of files in SYS and OEM folder if have included "Clear Storage" but Im find nothing...
I know for this two entries but I can't find it in files... When Rom is cooked and flashed into device then I can see this two entries...

_Dejan_, my rom in my sig (1.61.DKv3.3) has Clear Storage removed so I know it works. To remove you need to take out 3 files:
from OEM\OEM_Lang_0409
-ClearStorage.exe.0409.MUI
-ClearStorage.htm
from OEM\OEMDrivers
-ClearStorage.exe
Then remove settings from mxip_HtcApps_translation.provxml in OEM\OEM_Lang_0409:
<characteristic type="HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCCPL\Applet4">
<parm name="Name" value="Clear Storage" datatype="string"/>
<parm name="Title" value="Clear Storage" datatype="string"/>
<parm name="Path" value="ClearStorage.exe" datatype="string"/>
<parm name="CmdLine" value="" datatype="string"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="HKLM\ControlPanel\Clear Storage">
<parm name="Group" value="1" datatype="integer"/>
</characteristic>
Cook your rom without these files and settings and Clear Storage will be gone. If you are not cooking and just want to remove the icon, do as said in my previous post and reboot.

Hi,
I would like remove it in my cooked rom before I cook it...
and there I have one problem. I don't have mxip_HtcApps_translation.provxml in OEM\OEM_Lang_0409 folder and ClearStorage.exe.0409.MUI and ClearStorage.htm in OEM\OEM_Lang_0409 folder doesn't exist too... In OEM\OEMDrivers I have ClearStorage.exe and If I look .DSM file C l e a r S t o r a g e . e x e is present too. But if I edit this file then Can't Build(Give me error) ROM... Any other way?

_Dejan_, what rom are u using as your base? i'm positive that these files are in the 2 most recent at&t official roms (1.60 and 1.61) and the most recent one from htc (1.56) because my rom (DKv3.3) is a mix of these 3.

Hi Im using Alex's HTC 1.56 Cooking Kit v4(ROM Folders) with custom OS.NB After cooking and flashing I see in registry this entries but this is to late... One way is if I when complete dumb temp files edit default.hv or user.hv but If I do this everytime when I build rom this will take me alot of time...

Removing it from a running image is as simple as the following registry change (no need to delete entire registry keys or files):
HKLM\ControlPanel\Clear Storage
Group=dword:9

Bye, _Dejan_

I reinstall software but again seen old users' name
Hello. Does anyone know how to remove the software on pda. I delete it and I reinstall several time, but it seen still old user's name. I want it to install my user name and new registry key number. Thanks....

Still, about Chinese support

What I guess it because of wince.nls file. I can find it after flash, but I can't find in folders before I cook them. Do you have any idea?
Another thing is that Reg Table,
mxipupdate_OEMOPERATORS_101.provxml， nian font，default could be：

I know that wince.nls is located in the xip part of the rom. I have recently learnt how to replace a file in xip on the Vox.
I m writing this from my phone so unfortunately I can't help much more. I should be able to tomorrow night.

Many thanks. It seems to me that every step I did is write, but it still can't display Chinese correctly. I doubt some tools use in compile deos not support far east language.

I haven't really followed your previous attempts. Could you give me a little summary of all what you've tried ?
Do you have an original chinese rom from which I could take the file and try something ? If so please upload somewhere and I'll look at it maybe tomorrow.

Great.
My purpose is to cook my own ROM by using your kitchen.
What I've done are:
1. I was using a vox released by China Mobile, it has two localized languages, Chinese and English. The OS version is is CE OS 5.2.1236.
2. by using pdocread.exe -l,
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 -t
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 0 0x3528000 Part02.raw
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part01 0 0x391800 Part01.raw
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part00 0 0x217400 Part00.raw
I got 3 raw files.
2. by using prepare_imgfs.exe Part02.raw -nosplit
I got 2 bin files, imgfs_raw_data.bin
imgfs_removed_data.bin
3. by using viewimgfs.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin
I got a dump directory, which should contain all the files from part02.raw
4. by using package_tool，ie, PKGTool.exe
I sorted files in dump directory into 2 folders, OEM and SYS
5. I pick out Chinese language components from OEM and SYS folders and uploaded to XDA ftp.
6. frauhottelmann helped me to compile them into 804 Chinese language package.
Pls refer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366143
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com:21//Uploads/Smartphone/Vox/Vox Kitchen 0.3/languages/804 Chinese.exe
7. by using kitchen released by you and frauhottelmann, I am trying to build my own ROM.
(1) copying files extracted from 804_Chinese.exe to related folders into the kitchen
(2) following the intructions, cooked the ROM and flash the device
(3) the result is that English can display correctly, but Chinese charaters display in squares
8. I have checked device after flashed:
(1) Chinese font is same as it in China mobile version
(2) Wince.nls file is same as it in China mobile version
(3) Related registration key are correct.
(4) Just can't display Chinese correctly.
9. I have also used the kitchen by another way:
(1) Copying the dump directory got from step 3 above into the blank temp folder in kitchen
(2) Start step 3 "Build", ignor steps G'Reloc and Build OS, directly start step 3 "Creat ROM"
(3) No error report came out and got NBH file smoothly
(4) Flash the device smoothly
(5) Display Chinese as it is, very good though there some shortcuts and catelogues are missing or twisted.
My question is how can I use your kithen to cook a rom that can display Chinese correctly.
One more thing I discoverd from Chinese fans is that the rgucom.exe problem. Some fans said that rgucom.exe is not compitable with far east lanaguages and made a modified version (Please refer the attachement, pls delete .zip and then extract it). I don't know. I changed this file and cooked again. Problem was still there.

Could you also upload part0 and part1 of your chinese rom ?
I'll try something tonight.
But I must say I don't really know why what you did in (9) produced a rom that could display chinese text whithout modifying xip. Or maybe your chinese language pack misses some important files.
I'm sure we'll get somethin working as soon as I'm back home.

Sorry for I am using different ID since my ID iQQ is not allowed to post after I changed my email address in profile.
Here you can got all the 3 raw files.
ftp://xda:[email protected]:21//Smartphone/Vox/ROMs/dopodchina/dopodvoxmainlandchina.zip

OK, I got myself back.
Please notice that, when I am using the dumped directory to repack it, I did not use the par00.raw and parto1.raw since I even don't know how to extract them.
You may refer the Singapore ROM, which contains English and Chinese, but they put the English in first priority.
http://www.dopodasia.com/download/RUU_Vox_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.19.707.3_4.1.13.37_02.83.90_Ship.exe

Ok I tried playing à lot with the xip to replace wince.nls and mxip_lang.vol but no matter what I do the phone will always get stuck on first splashscreen... it seems the xip gets too big to be reintegrated to the rom. wince.nls is really bigger and I guess that when modifying xip every ko counts. So anyway your only chance of cooking seems to start from scratch with one of the roms you sent me but you won't have the latest version... or if htc has released à 1.34 for chinese language then you should extract windows.nb from it and use it in the kitchen. it would probably work.

Got it. Thanks a lot. I'll try and let you know.
By the way, do you have any idea how to use the 3 raw files flash back to the device?
By your hits. I copy the mxip_lang.vol from Chinese version into XIP folder (replace), then build, then flash. All steps are really smooth. Then I still got wrong language display.
Then I intalled the attached file, Chinese display comes out! However, when I try to change the path of fonts into \Winodws, rather then \Windows\Fonts, the display goes wrong again.
Remind: After you flash, the first boot will take longer time. I guess what you said "stuck" is not real.
Thanks.

Post an attachement is really hard here. I uploaded it at:
ftp://xda:[email protected]:21//Smartphone/Vox/from iQQ/UK_WM6CN_core.cab

putting mxip_lang.vol into XIP folder doesn't actually replace the xip. I think this folder is only used by BuildOs for boot.rgu.
Replacing the xip is a little more complicated. The xip is actually your part00.raw and part01.raw files. They can also be extracted from windows.nb
Nad the phone was really stuck first splashsscreen and the display went wrong with some weird lines after some times.
I wonder if we can rebuild a windows.nb file by putting together all the .raw files you dumped ? This way you could rebuild your rom whithout any problem.
I'll look at your file later in the day.

I used your 0.5a as a reference OS.nb and build a rom again. Building process are smooth. After flash, I installed file above. The when open "about", it says error. It can display both Chinese and English correctly, but I can't find "China" in "local".
But when I change the language back to English, the "About" looks good.

Good news. I changed the referece OS.nb to one that extracted from Singapore shiped, then creat OS -> flash.
After flash, Chinese still looks blocks. However, if I import the attaced reg file (pls delete .txt after download), and reboot, Chinese comes our correctly. The about shows that:
CE OS 5.2.1236 (18128.0.4.4)

yes I think that is the only way to do it (using Os.nb extracted from Singapore shiped) but then we mix files from newer rom with an older baserom and I don't know how it will come up on stability.
I'm glad you've find your solution though

Can you please let me know how can I integrate the reg keys into the rom before I create the OS.nb? and
Is there any way to repack the 3 raw files back to a nbh file or using raw files to flash back?

Add the line from the reg file you posted (except REGEDIT4 of course) into the rgu in language_chinese
It should work.

menu_operation.xml

Hi,
I have installed on my Kaiser the following ROM RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.28.405.0_radio_sign_25.83.40. 02_1.65.16.25_Ship.exe.rar.
So far so good - it works.
I have created a new ROM (based on this ROM) with some more application - so far so good.
Nevertheless, I have tried to move some *.lnk (\windows\start menu\programs) to some new folder (\windows\start menu\tools, ....) with editiong the Menu_Operation.xml file in xkaiserkitchen_01-20-08\OEM\OperatorPKG.
Unfortunaltey none of the *.lnk are moved.
Menu_Operations is started once after a hardreset or after flashing the new ROM - started from config_operator.txt.
The creation of new directory works.
Example:
<characteristic type="%CE4%\Programs\Tools\Search.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Move">
<parm name="Source" value="%CE4%\Programs\Search.lnk" translation="install"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
Should means: move search.lnk from directory \windows\start menu\programs to \windows\srat menu\programs\tools
But nothing happens.
Any ideas ?

In my cooked ROMS, I edit initflash.dat directly.
NOTE: initflashfiles.dat has an interesting issue where if you use notepad to edit the contents and save it, notepad will add extra characters that prevent the device from booting properly after flash. I personally use WinHex (any Hex editor will work) to remove the extra bits it adds at the beginning of the file after making changes.

Me too. More direct and do not need to struggle w/ xml

EDIT: Please ignore this mail.
hm, now I am confused.
As far as I know, all OEM apps are stored under \xkaiserkitchen_01-20-08\OEM\OEMAPPS - but there is no *.dat file, only a *.dsm is available.
There is either no initflashfiles.dat under \\xkaiserkitchen_01-20-08\*.
Which file has the information which *.lnk is stored in which directory ?
For my own apps (saved under \xkaiserkitchen_01-20-08\Packages ) this information is initflashfiles.txt (created with packages generator by ervius)
Thanks

Cannot move links from os.
Need to use the copy function instead.

Changing OEM *.lnk (shortcuts) paths before cooking ?

hum... i have here a noob question about basic cooking ...
because the lack of roms in my native language... i started to **** my own ...
i have one simple question ...
i now have folders with icons in /programs
and i have a problem,.. how can i arrange the shortcuts in the folders ?
for example.. in packages i edit the "initflashes" and i can change the path of the shortcut to wherever i want...
but how i can change in OEM stuff ? like ACTIVESYNC ? ... i can see the application.exe and the link.lnk em OEM folder... but how can i set the path to the link ?
sry my english ... i dont know if i explained well what i want :\
thanks

Use OEMizer, it's very helpful to create shortcuts.

The simplest way is to modify customization script in OperatorPKG (OEM folder) i think.
I do it this way.
Add to config_operator.txt this line:
XML: \WINDOWS\your_xml.xml
And now create your own XML with description of operations you would like to do.
Examples
Move shortcut:
Code:
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="\Windows\Nabídka Start\Programy\Nástroje" translation="install">
<characteristic type="MakeDir"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="\Windows\Nabídka Start\Programy\Nástroje\Správce SIM.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Copy">
<parm name="Source" value="\Windows\Nabídka Start\Programy\Správce SIM.lnk" translation="install"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="\Windows\Nabídka Start\Programy\Správce SIM.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Delete">
<parm name="ForceDelete"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
Change registry values:
Code:
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today" translation="filesystem" >
<parm name="Date" datatype="integer" value="1" />
<parm name="Enabled" datatype="integer" value="1" />
</characteristic>

im working on this rom
RUU_Kaiser_HTC_PTG_3.28.410.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.17.56_Ship
maybe because its an old release ... (but its the only release in my native language )
ill try the custom .XML trick
the OEMizer is a nice tool ... but i think its only to create new shortcuts right ?
what i want to do is to move the existent shortcuts in OEM to inside my folders...
its possible that OEMizer make that to... but for now ill try the custom solution...
thanks all

used OEMizer... i figured out how it works ... i just get duplicated shortcuts... but its easy to fix... just have to remove the shortcuts in oemapps ...
but i saw now that i have another problem in this field..
because my native language (portuguese) have special charecters like: ã , ç , á .. etc...
when i created the folders..
Directory("\Windows\Menu Iniciar\Programas\Aplicações"):-File("icon.lnk","\Windows\icon.lnk")
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the special characters doesnt appear :\ ...
Aplicações -> Aplicaes
errr ... isnt possible to make special charecters in initflashes to create the folders ?
thanks

You must have initflashfiles.dat in your kitchen. But it's hidden. You must set up the file manager to "show hidden and system files".
About special characters... You must save result in UTF-16 LE encoding.

hum... i have allways "show hidden and system files" in explorer
but when i get home ill do an dos attrib to double check ...
in the bed .. i remembered that enconding option.. (here is UTF-8) .. ill try later .. hope that isnt a initflashes limitation in special characters
one more question ... i used OEMizer to make some shortcuts for OEM stuff like ActiveSync and others... but the icons dont show up ... hum.. i read something before about that problem but i cant find it :\
(i was thinking that would be great if someone can make an "noob" FAQ for cooking with this little questions to help the people that is starting in the cooking buisness)

Faria once created a nice tutorial on how to cook those things. I think I have the link in the Hermes Kitchen link down in my sign. Check that out!

Never trying this but you can start to export values from HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items. You can import later to include any shortcut you want to be listed

Try settingssavior, i think it has a provision for it. But I am not sure if works or not!

I have done this before, and unfortunately, a simple registry tweak doesn't do the trick. You will need to write (or edit) an *.provxml in your kitchen specifying the *.lnks to move to the "\Windows\Start Menu" directory.

Don't think this can be done by Reg, the default items are Stored als .lnk under "\windows\Startmenu\" controled by Initfiles.dat or Proxml files!
Maybe you can try Proxml syntax with UC
like this
Code:
<characteristic type="\Windows\Start Menu\" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Internet Explorer.lnk " translation="install">
<characteristic type="Copy">
<parm name="Source" value="\Windows\pie.lnk" translation="install"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
and delete Help :
Code:
<characteristic type="\Windows\Start Menu\Help.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Delete">
<parm name="ForceDelete"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>

You are right ...sorry for misguiding, by mistake I thought it is a today item plugin which is enabling/disabling is controlled by registry values.

edited the title to maybe get some more eyeballs on this.

just move around the link files
i think u are asking if u can customize the start menu...
use total commander and go to your main memory. then click on windows folder. then click on start menu folder. here you'll see link files for all your programs. with your stylus, click and hold...Copy/Move. then click on Tree...find the directory you want to move it to or just plain delete the link file off that folder and keep just the ones you want.
hope it helps.

If the Rom is UC compatible,than this is most safe way to put these setting right after each hard reset.

I have done this before, and unfortunately, a simple registry tweak doesn't do the trick. You will need to write (or edit) an *.provxml in your kitchen specifying the *.lnks to move to the "\Windows\Start Menu" directory.

That sound very nice, where i find that provxml to edit it? or i may create it? (how) thx
BTW: thx to all for the replies

I would just add it to the end of an existing .provxml file. In your kitchen, go to OEM and search for mxip_oemupdate_*.provxml (something like that). Just open it up and add the entries before the </wap-provisional> tag at the end. A tip on editing, search the boards for Sleuth's User Customization thread. It gives tons of examples and links for editing .provxml files. When I get a chance, I'll post a copy of what I use to help you out.
