Hello,
i'm searching for a simple cab that gives me the battery bar at the top of the screen, which basically runs down from right to left, showing as the battery gets weaker.
I know that this function is part of lots of cabs with many other features. But all i want is this one feature, nothing else.
Anyone know how to do this?
thanks.
1. Did you search?
2. Is the battery bar you are looking for taking up the whole left to middle of the task bar? That would be awesome.
This is what you looking for - Batti-2.4
Thanks a bunch for this...exactly what i was searching for....

Attached is a current picture of my today screen. Im trying to do a number of things and havent been able to come across much concrete info when searching the forums.
Anyways here is what Im trying to do:
1. Remove ALL icons from the bottom of the screen (battery and active sync in this case)
2. Remove the black horizontal line just above the icons on the bottom
3. Remove the bar with Calendar and Contacts but only from the today screen
4. THe top icon for the battery, Ive seen it where people have percentages rather than a few bars, how can I change that?
Thanks guys.. trying to clear some room for my calendar stuff and the HTC plugin takes up over half the screen by itself. Thanks
Sad day for human intelligence
1. The second icon is not activesync icon. It is for the comm manager
To remove it, you'll need a registry editor. Then, go to HKLM>>services>>wirelessMgr>>keep=0
Regarding battery icon, I need to know whether the exe responsible for the battery icon is being used as a service or as a normal app.
Most probably, you can remove by going to File explorer>>windows>>startup>> here, you'll find a init(something).lnk file(i cannot remember the exact file name). Delete that file and soft reset
Second scenario(where it is used as a service): using registry editor>>HKLM>>services>>power>>ShowIcon=0
2. This line will be automatically removed once the icons from the bottom-bar are removed
3. For this, the max you can do is to match the line's bgcolor with the today bgcolor. Use an app like UItweaker to do that. Do a search on the forum and you'll find it
4. That can achived by either using batterypack pro/wisbar advance(differs from theme to theme)
Sorry that I brought down all of human intelligence..................
Anyways regarding number 3, I was hoping to remove the words Calendar and Contact as well as the bg behind it. Im trying to get as much real estate here as I can.
Thank you for all the info tho, about to try it all.
Use dcinobar - it will remove the lower bar, so calendar and contacts button will go. Use the cab i put together - sorry cant give you the link because i am on my device - put 'dcinobar' into search and its the 5th thread down. Yep the clock on the htc home plugin is way too big! Another htc design bungle! lol
Awesome. Before putting this on one quick one. Will this remove those buttons and lower bar JUST on the today screen? FOr apps and stuff Id like it to still be there. Not sure if I can have my cake and eat it too but would love to try =P
Thanks guys!
Just the today screen - there is also vjtoggle that does the same thing but i found that it kept causing the screen to mis-allign
FYI, if you don't know how to mess with the reg, I suggest using this..

Im just rambling, but over time ive seen these roms get better and better, and as far as suggestions go, Id LOVE to see something based around this

something totally new for our wizards. If there could be a way to remove the bars from the top and bottom and make the left softkey be the start menu that would look slick, Im tired of the bars. It would also be neat if we could find a way to change the background color in the windows to match the home screen, all the touch and today stuff is dark grey and when Programs or Settings is open , its got a white background. I think its an Idea, it would be nice to see the bars gone from the op and bottom of the screen and incorporated like in the chinese plugin link i posted earlier. what do you guys think, yay or nay?
Is there a way to remove the top bar containing the windows start, volume all that stuff to make the screen extra clean.
I found a cab that removes the bottom bar, was just wondering if there was another to remove the top.
Top bar toggle
Here you go.
Try these two:
TodayToggle.exe
ToggleStart.exe
I can't remember the author's name.
That would be Vijay555's software. There are great bits of his freeware floating around XDA-Devs (or on his site - http://www.vijay555.com).
Alternatively you could experiment with Wisbar Advance Desktop for a fully customisable Today screen which can cover the top bar if you want it to - http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products.php?prod=WisBar+Advance+Desktop.

thx man, worked great.
anything like this for wm 6.1?
As far as I know of, topbar cannot be removed completely, while the bottom can be hidden without any issues. However, you can use problems like HScreenPlusPlus, iphone today theme, or WAD, and stuff like that.
I have spent the last several days searching googling etc.. to no avail It boggles my mind I can not find this I must just be using the wrong keywords in my searches.
I want to skin the today screen or replace it I do not care. I have a PPC 6700 on sprint. I want the background image to be FULL screen either by getting rid of the top and bottom status bars or Skinning them. However it needs to be done.
here is a link so you can get an idea of what I am after LEFT is how my screen looks now RIGHT is how I "desire" my screen to look.

Any suggestions? How would I accomplish this?
Thanks!
This is "one" of the many ways to remove the topbar:
http://oldsap.blogspot.com/2006/08/themegence-tips-from-newbie2.html
WOW thanks SO much that looks to be exactly what I want. Only problem is it SHOWS the top and bottom removed but gives NO indication at all as to how to actually do it :-( moaning SOO close. I got the theme program. Help file is useless. Website contains no clues no forums etc..
Any Ideas ? I am playing with the program right now but I see NO "obvious" means with which to accomplish this.
AHH now I understand (found another thread) this is in combination with a program VJToggle that gets rid of the start and new bars. Alas I do not want to get rid of them I just want to add transparency or skin them :-(
i found a feature of ultimate launch 1.2, find and install... then find its directory, there are two files in the folder "smart tools" dcinobar.exe (removes bottom soft keys) and toggle.exe (toggles top bar on/off)
a nice thing is the actual buttons still bring up the menus and soft keys still work, the visual element is just removed from the today screen.
i copied dcinobar to the windows directory and placed a shortcut in the start up folder.
i have since uninstalled ultimatelaunch but i have a great today screen without soft keys!
skinning today screen
hello all,
i have a similar problem, i am running a MIps pocketpc2000 device, i run pocket blinds to give the toolbars additional features that the stock toolbars dont give, my question is this on many of the demo pictures of the device the screen shows the top and bottom toolbars with the today screen overlayed with a picture in the background, i have found various today plugin's that allow a picture to be displayed but not behind, it inserts it below under the appointments and tasks, thus showing part of the picture. any suggestions as i assume it is registry related as the image (white background) must get pulled from somewhere??
Hey, I have a Sprint-ified HTC Touch Pro. From what little I could find, I think my issue is the norm and not specific to me, but here goes...
The batter indicator on the title bar only displays in TF3D. If I have the phone dialer open, or the actual email interface, etc there is no battery indicator. Mostly this is ok, except that the battery indicator is pretty important while on a call.
Anyone know if this behavior is changeable?
Thanks in advance.
There is a tweak in advance config tools that allows this, alternitvely, there is a program called batti which puts a bar at the top of the screen which shows battery level.
Advance config found here

Thank you for the response. I do have Advanced Config and I have the option to show the Battery in the Title Bar enabled... this just doesn't seem to apply to the Title Bar when in an application (even like, the actual Outlook inbox list, or Total Commander, etc etc).
Batti is nice, just would prefer the original style implimentation (title bar).
Thanks again!
