How To Map Your Power Button To "Lock" - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

This is confirmed working with "Samsung Blackjack 2 Windows Mobile 6.5"
Download the attached file. "lock.zip"
Extract the "exe" file and put it in the "\Windows" Directory
In the registry, go to: "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSQuickApp"
Change the string "1" value from "quickapp.exe" to "lock.exe"
Save and there you go! Your power button is now the lock button.

Does this work for anyone else?
If so, what Phone and OS Version?

HTC Home Plugin Help

Dear All.
I am using HTC Home Plugin v.2.10 which allows to modify tab quantity.
I am very pleased with this verison. It's working fine, ecept brigthness function, but there is a solution for it, I don't need it, because I don't use to change brightness from HTC Home.
I need only to change Install Directory on this verison. It's not possible. After changing default install directory from /HTCHome to /Program files/HTC Home nothing appears on the screen. I have tried to make soft reset several times, but no result.
Who can change default install directory /Program files/HTC Home
for HTC Home 2.10?
Please...
I am attaching cab file to this message.
Thanks in advance.
you can unpack it using Package Creator and then repack it using the same app or CeCabManager
Thanks, I will try ...
Didn't work. Same problem.
If change install directory to /Program files/HTC Home the Application HTC Home doesn't appear on the device screen...
how did you initially change the installation directory?
I have never changed installDIR before. I used ready cab file.
But I don't like when programs(software) are installing to other directories. I like to see all the software on Progam Files folder.

I have changed installdir with help of Win CE Cab Manager.
On the files selected all files which were on /HTCHome directory and changed to /Program Files/HTC Home
It seems that it was not enough, it's needed to change some other setting but which settings I don't know.

Assing lock function to icon

Is there a way to assin a new icon to the "lock" function? What *.exe is used for that?
I used this one (attached) and it works on HD2...
Just copy into Windows directory and create a shortcut to copy into Start Menu Directory.
Then you can also add into HTC sense!

Creating shortcuts
Hi.
Easiest way entirely on phone is:
1) Locate .exe in file manager
2) Right click (Hold down on the file) to select it and 'copy'
3) Navigate to Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs (it can take a while to load sometimes
4) Right click & select 'paste as shortcut'.
Hope this helps
That worked like a charm! thx!
I needed to do this for my igo8.exe.
I tried doing it on my pc but the paste shortcut option was greyed out I'm running windows 7 64 bit, does anyone know the reason for this.
I managed to do it using the file explorer on the device but would really like to know why it doesn't work via my pc?
thanks
It's (I think) to do with the way that Activesync/WMDC interprets actions on our WM devices as it doesn't see it as a straight-forward flash device for obvious reasons. The best way is through your phone.

Sense 2.5 + comm manager help

I have Sense 2.5 installed on my phone and comm manager, but the wifi switch does not work, is there a fix for this? if there is could anyone uplaod it?
Go to key in registy "HKLM\Software\Drivers\WLAN" and copy the value from 'AdapterName" string. Now go to key in registry "HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN" and edit "DeviceName" string. You see there value like this: "{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\TNETW12511". Delete the last part of this value ("TNETW12511") and past the value "AdapterName" which you copy at end. Make soft reset and that is all. Now Wifi button on your device should work properly

iam new to hd2.need help?

aslam o alikum all.
i updated rom of my hd2.
after that i was scrolling in windows folder and saw soliter,bubble breaker,auto update ,transcriber in that folder but these applications are not displayed on interface anywhere i tried to copy them but it says cant copy from rom directory .
anyone can tell me how can i bring them on home screen.
thankx in advance.will be thankful.
You need to click/hold on them and select 'Copy'.
Then you need to go to the Start Menu/Programs folder of the Windows folder (where all the shortcuts in the Start Menu and sub folders are), and then you need to 'Paste Shortcut' into here.
They will then appear in the Start Menu, or appropriate sub folder depending on where you Pasted the Shortcut to.
Edit:
To follow up on this reply, to have them appear on the home screen, you then can select them to add as required on the quicklinks.
dosent work
i tried this it works but if u turn your handset off it dissappears.but if you browse with file explorer its still their.but u cant see it in start menu.
