[How To Remove taskbar] Mini lock screen cab - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I know everyone has probably been looking into this but I think that I have found a way to remove the taskbar on the HDmini lock screen.
1) Plug miniUSB into phone
2) Connect to computer via active sync
3) Hit the "start" hardware button
4) Hit "Lock" at bottom left
5) It is now gone.
Though this is temporarily, it will come back very fast! I do not know of a way to make it go away permanently. If anyone have any suggestions, please let us know.

Re-bump for any fixes.

re-bmp. Is no one experiencing this problem at all? Why is everyone ignoring it? Are they content that an ugly taskbar is in the way?

Still No Luck

Mate,
I am also looking for the same thing but couldn't find any ... Will try again & let you now if I could find anything

+ 1!
Now this would be nice!

My experience is that the taskbar shows in the lockscreen when it was visible atm the device was locked. Invoke the lockscreen from a fullscreen-app and the taskbar will not be visible.
Personally, I prefer having the taskbar visible when the device is locked, but maybe it's possible to wrap the mini-lockscreen with some dummy-app that hides the taskbar using mortscript?

you are wrong. that only makes the bg for the slider transparent, not the taskbar at the top.
Re-bump . Still looking for it.

I don't know, how.but if you'd sniff with a registry comparer before and after changing it via your method, you can look for the necessary registry changes.

Any body get this fixed yet?

Disable Start Menu?

hello, i would like to know if there is a hack or registry tweak that would disable the start menu? with all the full filled interfaces available, i dont need it anymore. can anyone point me to the right direction?
do you want to disable the menu itself or to hide it?
there is no point in actually disabling it.
Re:
Find the window to get the handle using Findwindow and make it disable using api ( like on window mobile EnableWindow(hwnd, FALSE)...
i think the same approach is on every OS .

hide it actually, what i actually want is so that when i press the start button, nothing happens. or at least prevent the menu from appearing.
hehe. i must be missing something here.
you want to see the Start button... that is.. you want the taskbar to be visible.. but you want to click start, and that nothing will happen.
i fail to see why.
I can tell you how to hide the taskbar with the start button so that you get extra screen space if you don't need that part..
but why would you disable the start button? just trying to understand.

Don't press it?
And assign the hardware key to something else, assuming you have it.
I hope this helps Startbar Toggle by me.

deleting locked programs in the program menu

i just got my new touch pro after having an xv6800 and love the new phone and im doing pretty well as far as making custom changes, but my question is how and or were do i go to remove or delete the lock programs in the program menu, so i can add my own.
thanks chris
as far as I know you can't. If you are looking to remove the bloatware(Stock Stuff) you can do a search for it.

Thanks for the help, ill do a search for bloatware,
as you said you prolby cant do it, in that case is thier an application were i can atleast add to the program list, since the program list is know full
Thanks Chris
If you are asking about the programs on the start menu do the following: Press Start > Settings > Menu. Remove the check marks from the programs you no longer want on the menu. Add a check mark to the ones you want on the menu.

that means u want to re-map your softkeys ... google and use software called "Advance Config" to re-map your "Program" and also to check the destination where the "Program" leads you to
i actually had that program all ready on my phone, i opened up the program and "restore all settings" and still when im on the home screen and click on programs on the bottom right corner it still brings up the TF3d menu then goes back to the home screen.
were do i go in ether advance config or my reg editor, to see were the program button might be launching to.
Thanks for your help i really appreciate it, i really don't want to reset my phone back to the way it was when i first bought it

Shortcut to LOCK DEVICE

Hi everyone
Is there a way to create a shortcut to DEVICE LOCK? I'd like to put a shortcut as a quick launch but I've searched the whole device and don't seem to see an actual executable to launch the lock screen. Is this possible at all somehow?
Thanks very much in advance for the advice!
I know this may not be what you are after,
however, if i put my device into standby (short press hang up key) it locks the device
also im not sure if it is ROM specific but on Miri 15.1 if you enter the start menu there is a lock icon on the bottom left...
Sorry if i couldnt help

I've got the Left SoftKey on the Homescreen set as "Lock" which simply links to a lockscreen.exe program. So from the home screen I just press Lock, instead of using the "Start Menu/Lock" option.
If you want to configure something like this drop the Lockscreen.exe into the Windows folder and then configure the Left SoftKey to point to it.
Alternatively, you could add it as a QuickLaunch link if you prefer that for some reason.

I am using S2U2, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668415 as my choice of lockscreen. It has settings that allow one to lock the screen when it goes blank/black.
So when I press the End/Power On button i.e. the extreme right button, it blanks the screen and S2U2 will kick in in the background.
For the left hand button, I have assigned it for rotating the screen to landscape.

To set the Lock (or any Link) as the Left Soft-Key on the Homescreen, change the following key in the Registry:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
Default: Lock
Open: \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Tools\LockScreen.lnk
(or wherever you have the Link)
You could also use the Cookie home tab app. Besides the many other options it provides, you can add a lock screen button on the main screen and even modify your actual lockscreen.

I know this and have used it a lot. Not anymore though, since I don't really need it.

Nice, but I have no "\Keys\112" in there. I looked with Resco Registry. Thanks anyway!

Think he means winmo 6.5x too tired to explain,someone help the guy out
Older version of winmo6.5 have start icon on top left, newer ones have it on a bottom bar, so is the ok button and all the others. Is this what you are trying to say?
No way to change it unless you flash a new rom.
No way to flash a new rom without HSPL.
Good luck!
Yeah I'm guessing he is talking about 6.5X v 6.5 as well.
If your start menu is in the upper left corner of your screen you have 6.5
If you have the start menu in the lower left corner of your screen you have 6.5x.
While they are pretty much the same operating system, they are very much different.
It is possible to change the top and bottom bars with a cab, but it is not possible to put the 6.5x soft bar on the 6.5 op system or visa versa.
here is a link to a post with different top and bottom soft keys you might be able to try.
I hope this helps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642832
Did you get the bottom softbar changed like you wanted?
What phone do you have?
What windows version? 6.5xxx or 6.5 or ?
What ROM Version?
You can find all this in your settings under About Phone...Software Information
no im gonna try right now and i will let u know and thank everyone so much for helping me on other sites i dnt even get a reply so agin thank u guys
and its a 6.5 i guess my start is in the uper left hand side is that good or bad
and ive already tried at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642832 and i downloaded some and its not showing up at all it does ask to soft reset my phone like all other downloads and i did it but its not showing up
The supposedly more stable "COM2"/6.5 builds are what your phone's OS is from.
There are a different branch, "COM5"/6.5.x, which offer a more finger-friendly User Interface and have a different layout (start button is on bottom left corner on a taller bottom bar).
The link you provided, however, is for 6.5 builds and does work for your phone. Maybe you need to go into Start>Settings>Home and change the theme there.
I don't customise the graphics that much on my phone so I'm not sure if that's all that's necessary or if that's the correct method but it shouldn't hurt to try

It's there just need to do another step to get it to show up...
Go to Settings/menu-All settings/today.
Pic a wall paper and then touch OK.
then go back to Today, and select T-moble (or your default paper). then close it out to your today screen. The soft bar should be there now.
Cheers!
yes your richt thank u so much

home screen.
When I hold the icon appears able to move, but just as it freezes. It is interesting that the icons can be placed on display, but they can not move. Otherwise, everything works smoothly.
Today I re-installed the RUU (RUU_Pyramid_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.28.707.2_Radio_10.43.9007.00P_10.11.9007.19_M_release_193173_signed), but still without success. I think it's a software bug ..
That's just weird. Can you add shortcuts through long-pressing, or just through the Personalize menu? Does long pressing work anywhere else?
Maybe try downloading another launcher app and see if you can add/remove widgets and shortcuts there, just to try to narrow it down.
