Repositioning top bar icons? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I've got Dutty's task manager installed and the drop down list (top right corner) for the task manager clashes with a clock on the top bar.
Is there a suitable app/tweak I can do to shuffle the top bar icons over to the left a bit so that the two things aren't on top of each other?
I'm running Miri's v7 rom if that makes a difference.
I think I used to be able to do this on my Touch HD with HD Tweaks or Advanced Config or something but not sure about an equivalent for the HD2 which would include this functionality.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

sounds like you are uising a 6.5.x rom it doesnt happen on the 6.5 roms

Yes, as I said, it's Miri's v7 rom (6.5.5 I think).
Also, there is nothing at all showing on the sounds & notifications tab in sense, but I realise that is a question better asked on the ROM support thread, not here.
If someone knows an app I can use to move the icons a bit it would be a help though, thanks.

Multi-Tasking Question:

I'm probably missing a really obvious setting and someone can straighten me out pretty quickly, but here's the issue. I just installed ROMeOS Rom and I can't figure out how to turn back on the Multi-tasking icon that usually appears in the upper right hand corner of the home screen. Is this an option in the Registry? I looked for it in Advanced Configuration Utility but couldn't find anything that appeared to relate to this.
Even better would be a way for this icon to *always* appear in that corner. (Since you can kill apps through the multi-tasking drop down, you really don't need a dedicated "x" for any given program).
Anyway, help on either of these would be great.
You are referring to the HTC Task manager which is not included in romeos roms. Either download the cab which you can find in Monx's/romeos 3rd post or even better, install wktask which is freeware and much better IMVHO.

How to make Bottom Bar Transparent in WM 6.5.x ?

Hi,
I've been searching all over but couldn't find any solution to make the bottom bar in WM 6.5.x transparent.
Anyone know how to do it?
Deactivate Sense - Activate Titanium
I've been searching
And found this one works perfect on dutty's rom
All credit's goes to the maker off this cab.
I just found it.
Regards Jouixs
@Jouixs : I didn't mean the Slider, but the bottom most bar which has the Windows Start Button. Anyway to make that transparent while retaining Sense 2.5?

Yes: Use HD Wall to create a Wallpaper for Sense and make sure you use the right profile (a 6.5 profile with toolbar skinning)! Search in the HD Wall thread if you have any questions... It's easy!
yeah ive just been playing round with hdwall, its good and not as confusing as it first seems if only there was a reg tweak or something easier than installing hd wall etc

Yepp... That would be nice! Especially since it seems to be possible, as the bars become transparent when using Titanium...

Anyone using a Wisbar type taskbar with WM 6.5?

Hi. I'm using Vico's 6.5.5 Rom but I really miss the taskbar options that Wisbar advance used to give me (like showing what apps were running). I've tried the Beta 5 version of WB but it doesn't work with WM 6.5.5.
Does anyone know of a similar taskbar replacement that will work with this ROM, or a way to disable that annoying drop down finger menu in WM 6.5.5 that pops down every time you click the taskbar?
Phil.
I use quickmenu for that. A menu that displays your running programs and gives a option to close them individual or all at once.
QuickMenu V2.8.410.1610.CAB from this topic
You can place the Q button in the middle of the screen.
Woks very well on this 6.5.5 rom.
Oh, and disable the battery icon or you will be having two of them.
Do you want a program that shows running programs in the top bar? (the one were the clock is)?

Yeah, and also a way to modilfy the top bar and its po-out/drop-down curtain finger friendly thing (which I'd rather do without to be honest)

I'm giving this a try at the moment, thanks to your suggestion. It does give me some of the funtionality I'm looking for but it's not as nice as WA IMO.

How to get rid of the topbar clock (WM 6.5.x)

sorry to bother you all, the question maybe looks stupid, but I haven't found an answer anywhere.
I'd like not to install cabs or stuff like that......... I'm quite sure that it might be done tricking some regkeys, is anybody aware about it?
Thanks
Was looking for that answer too, because we already have the big clock of manilla so there's no use of having the clock in the topbar. Don't know how to do it also.
there use to be an option to turn it off when i had my old omnia but cant find that these days
was thinkin about that 4 weeks now.. what u can do is 2 use the battclock programm and place something diffrent over it , thats what im doing @ the moment hope someone is bringing a cab 4 it soon ..
Any hint?
i believe hdtweak program would allow you to do that. not sure if it would work with this device.
Hello,
In WM 6.5.x I don't know, but in 6.5, in settings, all setings, Clock & Alarms, More, there is a choice to display or not the clock. Hope it helps !
No sir, with WM 6.5.x you don't hve any chance to change the toolbar. I've been messing round for hours in these forums without getting anything...... I'm quite sure it can be modifed only via regkeys........ who knows???
It utterly, absolutely and definitively cannot be disabled in 6.5.x ROMs at this time. I'm genuinely surprised you haven't found this while searching as it has been answered many times before.
Setting -> All Setting -> Clock & Alarms.
'More' tab Untick the 'Display the clock on the title bar in all programs'
That worked fine on my stock 1.66 WWE ROM.
just use battclock then , u can even put a blank colored space over it ..or an image2match ur taskbar ...

I suspect you don't have a 6.5.x ROM then. The 6.5.x series have the Start Menu button at the bottom, rather than the top.

Sorry sir, I don't want to stir things up, but I think what you're saying isn't true
Have you ever wondered why some cooked topbars (showing either colored icons or different types of them) don't show the clock sometimes?
This is likely to mean that topbar clock is a customizable feature, isn't it?
Nothing is absolutely impossible, no wonder some cooks did it.

Start Icon At The Bottom?

Hey
Noticed around the forum people have got the start menu at the bottom of the screen where contacts and menu appear on the home tab
to be thats better and thats where the start menu is on a computer. . is there a cad or a way to move to start icon to the bottom?? im using a custom taskbar so i think maybe that might cause a problem with such process. . .
finally does anyone know of a collection of custom slider icons to use with HDwall??
thanking you!!!
How far i know.
Startbutton on top left its Windows mobile 6.5
Startbutton on bottom left is windows mobile 6.5.x
for changing from top to bottom you muster flash a new ROM at your device.
the start icon on the bottom is a rom thing. stock (wm6.5) is upper left. custom (wm6.5.x) is bottom left. don't know of a way to move it without changing your rom (to have it be functional at least.)
cheers.
To get the start menu at the bottom, you need to install a custom ROM which is based on Windows Mobile 6.5.x.
The stock ROMs are still using the "older" version.
You can differ them through the build number: 21xxx is "older", 23xxx/28xxx are the newer builds.
You can use any slider icons together with HDWall as they won´t be shown in a better resolution anyway.
Ok.......You are running the older 6.5 which has the icon at the top. You would need to load a custom ROM that is running 6.5.X ( x being either 3 or 5) which would be the newer Windows version. It is not as stable as the older version because it has been pieced together for the most part. But it being newer it has more functionality then the older version. NO you can not use a cab to load it.
As for you sliders HDWall is a program to make your own sliders and backgrounds. If you are looking for sliders that have already been made that can just be installed. Search there are plenty of ongoing threads.
I wonder, how many more people will be explaining the issue
