Hi,
I have been searching for something what makes the bottom startbar back to the top. But when I search for it I only get the application what makes it go from top to bottom. I would like to see the startbar as normal as it is in WM 6.0.
BTW it should work on a Omnia I900.
Thanks very much!

pls dont flame me if this was posted before. i just find another cool way (maybe not) on how to quickly do end task and kill application instantlly on wm 6.5...actually this is not so new but a rediscovered trick! hope that others will find this tip helpfull.
im using atom life, and im eager to look for a way on how to maximize its limited memory and im an avid user of quickmenu... first of all, its free! although its not visually appealing to the new 6.5 interface...it is very usefull.
with the releases of the latest 6.5 rom, i just thought that quickmenu "x button"-to close and kill running application is useless in new 6.5 roms because the x button is now located at the lower screen... but its not! it is still there and still functional but invisible!!
You can use its setting to kill running programs by pressing the upper right corner of the screen where the old X button is located. although X is not there....program will be closed instantly from running!!
you can also set it up to put an old style start menu ( W/ or w/out icon) or To launch other QuickMenu's useful tools like hibernate (free mem), end task, Turnoff screen, reboot in the upper-left corner of the screen where the old start icon was or place it anywhere on the top with an icon.
here is the link in QuickMenu discussion
sorry, cant explain too much. but ive attached some screenshots:
hey2..may i know where did u get ur WM6.5.1?
check this thread for latest atom life ROM releases cooked by bajok.
thx (too short liao)
Shame it´s not working on Energy´s Photon wm6.5.1 on my Touch pro 2
I really miss that
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.
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

i would also like to know how to remove it this will help with the development of ROM's for Palm Treo Pro
bumb
any news on that?
I'd like to use iPhone Today with 6.5.x but the bottom bar is terrible (in that case)...
Hello!
I'm a HD2 user (Manila 2.5.2018, ROM 3.14.412.2). I've tried some cooked roms and I didn't find one that feels the way I like, that is pretty close to stock roms. The other problem is that I've experienced a lot of problems with cooked roms. I don't know if is because of my carrier or what, but with any cooked rom I have to reboot at least 3 times a day. So finally I decided to upgrade my HTC to a stock rom.
But testing here and there, I've found something in cooked roms that is terrific!
Start menu is in the bottom and the two buttons (in my phone are "Phone" and "Menu") where buttons and not just text. I've attached two images: One of my homescreen as it is and the other with the wished structure.
Is there an application that does this?
Thanks in advance!
PS. Forgive my english, please!!
StartMenu in the bottom means your SYS is WM6.5.X. Top ones are just WM6.5.
Phone button is part of Sense. They can be changed by the following reg keys. Menu, you cant do anything with it. It is hard-coded in Sense.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HomeLSKPath"="windows\\cprog.exe"
"HomeLSKText"="Phone"
if you enjoy the stock feel, you should try Dutty's ROM or Artemis. they come with the big buttons in the bottom

I'll try this. Thanks a lot!!!
Your stock ROM is indeed Windows Mobile 6.5 with start menu at top left in taskbar. Cooked ROMs are mostly Windows Mobile 6.5.3 or 6.5.5 which now have the Start Menu button bottom left in the Softkey bar, so you can't achieve exactly what you are looking for just with registry edits (although you can reassign the two big softkeys to pretty much anything. If you want the Start Menu access in the middle of the bottom bar as you show then I'd recommend installing Cookies Home Tab 2.0 and enabling CHT Softkeys as this allows you to achieve exactly what you're after. You can have up to five custom softkeys doing pretty much anything you want, plus you can really easily skin them to get exactly the look you want. CHT 2.0 will install and work fine on a stock ROM, plus it gives you as much (or as little) customisation as you want in your home screen(s).
