Hi,
Does anybody know how to change the softkeys of the landscape page of TF3D? I know about the registry keys but they only change the softkey on the (portrait) homescreen of TF3D.
I want to put Second Today screen on a softkey since the landscape page isn't really what I need.
Thanks, cheers,
Cacti
Ciao, do you have any news about this?
Advance Config 3.2
Use the tool Advance Config 3.2

I dont think we would be able to change the landscape keys with advance config,,,,,
I think somebody from our intelligent community should really give a hand to help us out in changing the landscape keys. Or may be ability to change the prorams on landscape TF3D screen.

Advance Config 3.2 does not support TF3D-Landscape mode...
So yes, we would like to have SSMaPa to be extended to change the links for TF3D-Landscape. And we would like to see people who come up with Manila Themes to take care of the landscape graphics as well...

Most of the themes support landscape. Just don't use TF3D Config to install them. After you have restore the original theme with the Config tool, rename the .theme file to .zip, and copy it's contents to \Windows folder.
You see, most themers use a Diamond, which doesn't have Manila Landscape files, thus they don't include them in their themes. TF3D deletes all manila files in \window directory and then replaces the Theme files. So your Manila Landscape files are gone...
Still no solution?
I would love to change my landscape softkeys. Just dont know where to look in registry

1. Go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\\Manila key in your registry
2. If you don't have a String entry called LandscapeMenuLSKPath, add it.
3. Edit LandscapeMenuLSKPath to the program you want the left soft key to run (e.g. \windows\operal.exe)
4. If you don't have a String entry called LandscapeMenuLSKText, add it.
5. Edit LandscapeMenuLSKText to the label you want to use for the left soft key (e.g. Internet)
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for the right soft key (LandscapeMenuRSKPath and LandscapeMenuRSKText)
Works like a charm, thank you. I suggest adding it to Advanced Config
hello!
i changed the right one to Messenger (\Windows\WLMMessenger.exe), but I can't change the left one.
The softkey is the Phone, and it doesnt appear on registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\\Manila), even when I try to create one new LandscapeMenuLSKPath and Text it says it already exists.
The Phone softkey is so useless for me, when I want to call I simply have the call button (green)...
please help me!

Sorry Deiota, can't help, ITNV's instructions worked perfectly for me. Try again?
I wanted to add a little extra functionality by having my right soft key open a new SMS. With some messing around, based on ITNV's instructions I added three new strings as follows:-
1. Go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\\Manila key in your registry
2. If you don't have a String entry called LandscapeMenuRSKPath, add it.
3. Edit the value of LandscapeMenuRSKPath to read: \windows\tmail.exe
4. If you don't have a String entry called LandscapeMenuRSKText, add it.
5. Edit the LandscapeMenuRSKText value to read: New SMS
6. If you don't have a string called LandscapeMenuRSKArguments, add it.
7. Edit the value of LandscapeMenuRSKArguments to read: -service "SMS" -to ""
Hope I've explained this properly, works for me : )
when you say add a string is that adding a "key" or a "value"?
im using regeditor
landscape softkeys
Will this work for the Fuze?
If so, can someone tell me where to find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\\Manila in my registry? I couldn't find it.
Thanks.
Never mind previous drjim posts
I just figured out that HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = HKLM. Doooh...
tried and failed
I want to change my landscape softkeys to Google Maps and Dictionary. I followed both ITNV's and Ouzo's instructions exactly. The only difference was that I created the Arguments that Ouzo suggested, though they don't appear to be necessary because Home RSK doesn't have an argument.
I was unclear on what precisely to put in the Arguments. The HomeLSKArguments just had Contacts (my designated softkey) without any punctuation.Ouzo, when you put -service "SMS" -to "", did you mean all of the dashes and quotes?
I made sure the both GM and D exe files were in Windows.
I also compared the Landscape RSK and LSK strings to the Home RSK and LSK that denote the standard softkeys and everything was consistent.
Still didn't work.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Hi!
First post here.
I don't want the sms-functionality of TF3D active due to different reasons (prying eyes for example).
Is it possible to do: "create new sms" when i hold down the left soft-key?
Perhaps a ".exe" file for such a feature exists?
Other shortcuts perhaps?

- sorry for OT, I don't know of any shortcuts.
soundie, I used HDTweak to change the left soft-key option from 'Phone' to 'New SMS', so now I can start a new SMS with a single tap from the home screen.
HDTweak here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
Hope that is what you were looking for...
Don't be lazy
Just to help ya out: LINK
Thanks
Great solutions both the alternatives
Thanx.
Create shortcut
Hi
Here's my solution:
Make a new .txt file and in it write:
44#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS" -to ""
rename this file to New SMS.lnk (i.e. change the extension to .lnk)
Copy this link file to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
Select the New SMS "application" to one of your buttons in Settings>Personal>Buttons.
Cheers

that method hadnt even crossed my mind.

Hi bnm7bnm
Check out the start menu customisation link in my signature. Obviously you might not want to use those icons but hopefully it will help you identify how to change an icon.
By the way, I am just about to release a new icon set for start menu and ROM icons customisation so will notify you about that.

i found solution, for program links & png icons need to set in registry
HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\PROGRAM NAME.lnk\Icon:\windows\ICON NAME.png
I found a way to change those 3 shortcuts, that acer did not alowed to remove/change them.
ok with a registry aditor go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/Acer/shell/Homescreen
and will see some strings values like
ShortcutLinkPathx
then edit the ShortcutLinkPath1 (or 2 0r 3) and erase the adress of the shortcut.
now save changes, go to homescreen ans press edit!
you would be able to change them whatever you want!

Hi there,

Find a clock that you like, download the cab file, copy it to your phone and then run it. It's that easy
Be sure you have a clock that is right for your system.
A lot (oh and I mean A LOT) of the clocks on XDA are intended for use with Co0kie's Home Tab (CHT) . These clocks are unlikely to be compatible with your stock Sense.
Having said that, there are plenty of stock clocks out there. Just be sure to check the details in the thread that you downloaded the cab from.
Either way, if you have the right cab for your system, then JCM is right, the process is really very simple. Save the cab somewhere on your device and click on it

This clock is intended for use with Co0kie's Home Tab (CHT) . Do you have this installed?
Yes
- Make sure you have selected a layout that includes an analogue clock.
- You can do this from the home tab, by going 'Menu > Edit home layout > Level 1 - Main Home'
- Then either press and hold on the clock until a sub menu pops up. Scroll through the layouts until you find one you like (which includes an analogue clock) ...
- OR ... select 'Advanced' and use the drop down list to select a clock layout option.
No
- Uninstall the clock
- Install CHT
- Install CHTEditor
- Reinstall the clock cab.
- Follow the instructions above.
thanks for this..
not your fault but my fone is soo screwed...i really need help to sort it out..
the clock doesnt work, my fone has a white background, my grid is now back to three, i can see the calender on the home page when before it was hidden...
all i did was install cht and cht editor..
i need to start again any ideas what I should do?
Ideally I would like to reset the fone back to factory settings, then obtain a list of things I should install i.e. swype, ge alarm, skyfire, torch, my player, core player, reset on home page, a tag watch, some great wallpaper or animated theme,
where do i begin..well i have just performed a restore to factory settings reset and am gonna start all over..

I am not sure I understand your question. Do you want to reskin them?
On Home screen
go to Menu -> CHT Editor -> SoftKey-> Switch off - Enable CHT Soft Keys -> Menu -> Apply Changes -> Home
restart sense
i think he wants to assign programs to the softkeys
with this release, only 3 are possible.
ask in the CHT or CHTE thread, if they could make more possible in next release

nobody understands your question, but I want to ask the same.
How to change the built in icons of the soft keys?
There is no mention of it in the manual.
I dont want to change the functionality, I dont want to reassign the programs or commands, I just want to change the built-in icons for custom ones.
thank you in advance

Ahh This is actually quite simple. Copy the cht_softkey files from your windows folder into your computer. Use these as templates when creating your new softkey icons. Then simply place them back into the windows folder and reset.
It's bad practice to spam threads for each specific question, when a CHT2 thread already exists.
Furthermore, this question has been already answered and if you had bothered to search you would have known that.
Finally, the name of the thread is very general and therefore is useless for anyone trying to look for information.
I would suggest to the mods to close it or to move it to the CHT thread.

dont worry I didnt try to use any search tool. if I didnt, I wouldnt land in this post
and I agree, thanks to miller710 the mods can lock this thread but not to move it or any, because google leads here.
the CHT thread is too complex, too huge and even when you try to google "cookie's home tab" that thread is not between the results.
Remember to take backup of the 'CHT_XXXX' files from the Windows folder, befor you overwrite them with the new icons/.png files.
Some of the icons e.g. the Notification icons is not .png files but manila files, and you need a manila editor to change them.
Really appreciated - was imo a good question with a bad header
I have searched alot to find this answer - but ended up just seeing this by coincidence. - anway /cheers for being able to change the two 'fixed' icons.
In general when searching for Co0kie Monsters Threads ... don't be fooled by only knowing the writers name - know how to write the writers name.
Cookie Monster = Wrong
Co0kie Monster = Right
Kindly and Thanks for opening this this thread!
Kwasmir
jkolner: backuping is definitely suggested, allways, anytime when doing any "hacking"
Kwasmir: yeah, now when I found the real CHT2 thread I am aware of that little detail cookie x co0kie thanks

I would suggest creating a separate thread named "CHT tips and tricks" where would be the final solutions colected and published.
perfect for searching, perfect for spreading CHT genius
