Operator name - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Is there anyway to remove the operator name complete?
i like clean screen.

do you mean the name of your Gsm provider?
nope you can´t put away the branding in the settings... you could try a new rom, then it might work
cheers, stephan1

cookie tab editor lets you change the name of the operator and add whatever text you like. It says on the setting screen that you can put a space in if you want it to be empty.

With Cookies Home Tab you can fill in your own operator name, or use a space to leave it blank

is there a way to put a "colorful" or ACTUAL operator logo in place of the plain text?

If you don't or can't use co0kie's home tab, then the attached cab can do the same thing (let you customize or clear the operator name). It does the exact same thing as the feature in CHT, it's just a stand-alone solution. It won't put an icon there, just text.
Install, find the icon in your start menu, run from there.

Last used apps in Start Menu.....

[email protected]
i have windows mobile 6 on my device... is there any way to hide the normaly shown "last used apps" in the start menu??
A reg key or something like that?
Use this then soft reset.
thanks.... but thats not the behavior i wanted.... your app only removes the entrys.... if i open a program after that the entry is there again.... i wanted to completely remove the section from the start menu
sorry, i don't know the answer, but I'm curious as to - why?
Is it possible to edit the maximum of programs shown in the "last used" menu?
Because it has white text and i have at the bottom a white company logo. So i want only to show 5 programs their.
Any ideas?

This is what I use. Just check the boxes you want this program to apply to.

Go to start/settings/personal tab/MENU. Scroll down the list of installed programs, and remove the check marks by the program/s you don't want to appear in the start menu. You can only have a maximum of 7 by default. As for the start menu text being white, the app I'm including allows you to make that text any color you want or other system color changes ie: today text, taskbar background, etc.
These changes can be made any number of times. Nothing is permanent unless you make it permanent.

HTC Home and TouchFLO quick dial question

Hello everyone,
I just upgraded my wizard to WM6 (NBD v7.8), and so far I'm loving it. There's just one thing bothering me. When I add a contact without a photo to the fancy quick dial thingie in HTC Home/TouchFLO it displays only the contact's first name - not a good idea, especially since I want to have 3 people with the same name on that list. Is there a way to make those apps display something different? The "Nickname" field would be perfect, but I'll settle for the full name or something similar
go to the contact you want to change, then edit it, then go to File as and enter whatever you want, from now on in your contacts it will show up as whatever you put in
I think you misunderstood, I don't want to change the way the contact is displayed in "Contacts", I want to change the way it's displayed in the "HTC Home" today plugin and the "TouchFLO" app, and the File As field has no effect on that.

Newbie..please help..changing home...

Hi, this is my first post..
recently i buy a qtek9100 with wm6 blackdiamond3...
I don´t know much about wm6 or wm5 and for this i need some help...
i need to change the numbers format (i hate the actual format) in the home screen on wm6...
please help.-
Thanks..
First i would like to say welcome to XDA Developers, second when asking a question it helps if you describe exactly what it is you want to change,instead of being vague and saying the number format on the today screen
what numbers format,in the home screen?
Your home screen is what is displayed when you first turn on the phone from standby. To change anything on the homescreen like the plugins (htc Home etc) then just click start > settings > today > items then you can enable or disable what you like.
If you want to change the font of the main clock then download HTC Home customiser and that will allow you to change the appearance of htc home (which is the plugin that is displayed)
If you are in fact on about the dialpad when dialing numbers then you will need to install another dialpad on the phone.
finish i made the changes (only change the font type).-
Thanks a lot..-
glad i helped, just remember to make sure you explain in a bit more detail next time, i.e. say you want to change the font of the clock,not the numbers on the today screen.

How to change path for Settings in Start Menu

I was messing with the registry and could not figure this out. I got as far as finding where the settings program launcher is....
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
Here we can add programs to the launcher and I beleive if I can add the .exe to WM All Settings page it would be great. I can't find such a file though. This is where I need help unless I'm completely wrong here. This would allow to add an All settings Tab to be added in the Launcher.
Or
If you go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\3 Changing things there should work. Would ony changing the path work? I just need to know where the .exe for the Settings page is.
It just frustrates me that I have to go to the Settings tab then All settings.
Thanks for any and all help. I am trying to learn here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​
Edit: This maybe more difficult than I think. But I did figure out how to unloch the locked items and also to move them so they are at the bottom.
To Unlock go to
- HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
-Select one of the keys numbered 0-23 (a number for each of the slots. The locked items are numbers 0-3 and are ordered on the list going left to right/top to bottom)
- Just change the DWord value from 1 to 0 and you can now remove these if you wish.
- You can do the reverse to lock any other program in place. Click on it an set the value from 0 to 1.
--Now Soft Reset or go to today settings, turn off touchflo 3d and hit ok. Go back and turn TF3D back on. All set.
To Move the items go to
- HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
-The locked items are numered 0-3
-Say if you want to move settings to the bottom left you would select key '3'.
-Rename it from 3 to anything you wish for instance 'n' (or any number starting from 24) make it short because you will change it again.
-Now go to key '23' and rename that to '3'
-Go back to 'n' or whatever you named the old 3 and rename it to '23'
-Now Soft Reset or go to today settings, turn off touchflo 3d and hit ok. Go back and turn TF3D back on. All set.
bro, where can i locate this?
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
from file explorer? i acnt find any. thanks

There is a way to directly link to specific Settings items, see http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/windows-mobile-faq/12666-applet-shortcuts.html Just save the text string after the "=" as a plain text file with extension ".lnk" and put it in the "/windows/start menu/programs" folder, as I'm sure you know.
I've used some of these and they can save a lot of stylus work. I don't see a way to link to the general Settings page itself though.

You have to get a registry editor. I use PHM but have heargood things for Resco registry editor. Just google search for a cab.

EASIER WAY to unlock the first 4 shoutcut in start menu.....
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\0
change the "IsReadOnly" dWord value to "0"
restart your TouchFlo3D
Do the same for 1, 2, 3....

Thanks for the tip - works perfectly. Only problem now is assigning an icon other than the ugly white page with Windows square on it. I have tried the trick described here in the Wiki, but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Provided you have your shortcut in one of the initial 23 positions of the Program Launcher, you could try setting the icon path from the registry, in the location as described by HTC Touch Freak in the first post

There's also an "IconPath" parameter under the 0-23 keys which you might have more success with.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried that after posting the above. Managed to find out the icon is no 398 in shellres.192.dll, and inserted that into the IconPath line. Now, when I click on the shortcut, I get a message saying
"The file 'ctlpnl cplmain' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found."
I wonder if it's possible to make up your own icon, as you can in desktop windows - a bitmap of the appropriate size with ".ico" extension?
Thanks for the link Fisha21. I made a link for remove programs, put it in the programs list and also saw there was no icon. Well i thought, maybe i can easily approach the link differently.
I downloaded Link Creator 1.4 - Shortcut Creator (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494613) and just assigned the link to the right softkey.
For those who don't like that, there are many different options that it can be linked to (keymappings etc.)
Hope that helps a few peeps

Changing all my icons, and have a question about this site.

So I would like to change all my icons, and i dont know how I found the site but its called http://www.iconfinder.com/free_icons/?ultimate I wanted to get some of the icons off of that site but im unsure on how to do it and open it with bettercut. Any input would help. Thanks!
install bettercut. i don't know how the demo works. but on the full install, just click and hold anywhere on the empty space on the home screen. add to home screen menu will pop up. Click on bettercut. then using that menu click on activity (which will bring up applications) or other availible short cuts. select whatever. then click on change icon. you should then pick a picture and find which ever picture you want it changed to. I installed iq picture icon set by hockey which provided me with the option to choose from icon pack. whichever you decide then click on create icon.
done. repeat for more icons. oh yea, it only works for the home pages, not anywhere else so don't act surprised when you click on the applications menu.

Take screen shots of the icons and paste them into paint or something and save them then put them on your SD card?
Nah, click on the set that you want, and it'll open to a bigger preview of the icons, and then you can choose what format to download the icons in (at the top of the image), but it looks like you have to download them individually, then just put them on your SD card? That's what it looks like to me. That's what you wanted to know right?
can anyone upload the hi-res stock messages icon?
i've found it online, but it's low res so it looks crappy on the evo.
