How to remove data icon?

Hey all,
Just wondering if anyone knows how to remove the data icon circled in the screenshot below?
The reason is that I don't use data on my phone, and it's been blocked by my SP at my request, so this "no data connection icon" shows on my toolbar SO I just wanna get rid of it.
THANKS.

I know you can hide it with Wisbar advanced but......

Really? I searched and found no thread for this..... Well I hope somebody finds how..... if not it's no biggy, I can live with it there

Its buggin me to! any developers here?

You might have better luck if you posted this question in the right forum, this one is for rom development, and your question is most definitely more of a Kaiser General Forum question.

I was thinking that I should post it there first, but I wasn't sure, and considering it is probably a reg tweak needed (I noticed that in a few ROMs the icon doesn't appear (Alex's is one)) , I decided to post it here. If the MOD would like to move it over there, then so be it.
I noticed you answered the same way in another post, maybe sirens should sound with every one of your posts? (forum police) lol
just jks...

Haha, no not the police, you'll notice i still answered the question and suggested where the post might get more attention. I just think that if everyone posts where they're supposed to it might make it easier to find what we're looking for. I also looked around to see if i could find any information related to your question, but was not successful. Did you try asking alex how he got rid of it?

you could possibly edit the data connection icons so that its completely blank. the icons are stored in shellres.96.dll i believe.

I am having trouble copying the dll from my device. I am getting an Access Denied error. Do you know if there is a way to copy it off my device so I can extract it and edit it?

check some of my threads and you will see at least 2.

same here, mine is named something dif though it
shellres96apps or something

yea, mine is named the sammmething. I guess the only way to do this is edit the file from a dumped rom and then copy it over the exiisting file in the windows folder? can someone upload the file shellres96apps.dll from their windows folder if they can copy It off there device? it would be much appreciated
(and I already have the software to edit the file, I just can't get the file off my device.)

That was Kristof's way of saying to search for it on your own.
Look... not trying to be mean, but think of searching through the several tens of thousands of pages to be your initiation into the club.
Why would we give an overly technical solution to a user that can't even figure out how to make Search do what he/she wants?

[Q] Custom alert tones on Mango?

I know you can change ringtones in Mango, but I'm confused if there is a way to create custom alerts as well.
Is this a feature that just isn't implemented yet?
Thanks!

I did search, and found the only options were linked to Alarm tones.
Maybe you could be so kind as to link a thread/post that goes into Alerts?

Wish people would give the links out and not say "search for it, its out there". I searched google and asked twice on the forum, nothing. If it can't be done fine, but if it can people need to show others.

Also still wondering if this is possible..

Use any music editing software(audacity etc) or Myxer.com and create an .mp3(I think .wav too, I'm not sure) file of the part of the song that u want as a ringtone. It has to be less than 39secs and less than 1MB. Then save the file anywhere on your computer(I save mine where I have my other music). Go to Zune software and locate the file that you made, right click it and change the genre to Ringtone(I had to type mine out) then then sync it to your device and you should be able to set it as a ringtone.

I can tell you what I did. I followed the instructions in the Mango Tips & Tricks thread. First you need to make sure your intended is less than 40 seconds long & less than 1 MB in size. Also, make sure it's a MP3 or WMA. To do this, used a audio editing software. I used AVS Audio Converter6 (Paid for app). Than load it into Zune by putting it in a folder being monitored by Zune for music. You can check in Zune settings which folders are watched & add or remove folders as needed. Now in the Zune software, find the file & right click on it. Click on Edit, than click the Genre field & type in Ringtone. Than just drag it to the WP7 icon at the buttom of Zune. On your WP7 device, go to the ringtones settings & it'll show up at the top of the list under "Custom". It'll be named by filename btw.

Custom Ringtones
1. Copy MP3 or WMA to Zune Collection. Choose Edit, and type in manually under Genre "Ringtone". The song must be less than 40 seconds and smaller than 1MB.
2. Go to Settings -> Ringtones + Sounds, tap Ringtone. Your custom ringtone will appear under a new tree called "Custom", above "Windows Phone"
Note that it is identified by the filename, rather than the track title.
Also, you can tap and HOLD a ringtone, and Delete will be offered (but only on the Custom ones; preloaded ones grey out delete).

I can see and empathise with TooSlo's frustration here - he's asking if its possible to create alert tones and folks are beating him up for it and sending him info on how to create ring tones. Unfortunately, you can't use ringtones for the various alert tones.
I suppose a hack is possible. It may be as easy as finding the appropriate category and editing the metadata (like you do with Ringtones).

same problem ive had searching for custom alerts.. nobody understands the question.
is there any way to make the question clearer for people to understand what were after? i say that in a non-sarcastic manner truly

I can't find any information that allows for custom alerts. I've been looking for this as well.

Not tried in latest Mango but I did in 7712
Sideload Touch Explorer and send yourself the tone you want but rename as ALERT 10 etc (we have to overwrite one of the built in ones)
Open the email and download the attachment then using Touch Ecplorer look in the volatile folders and you will see your file then copy and paste to the windows folder.
You may have to open the email and open attachment a few times before it shows in volatile but you will find it eventually
Hope this helps

That's more or less the same thing you have to do in Mango, but with provxmls. Follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238519

You can try this: Advanced Configuration Tool 1.3.0.0 beta available - for Mango only
That app have this option.

Just to let everyone know I have just reflashed my HD2 to Mango 7720, and used the email, copy and paste to windows folder and it still works
To be more precise email yourself a wma file and call it something like Alert-10.wma the open your email and download then play the attachment.
Then press home key and open touch explorer and navigate to APPLICATION DATA then VOLATILE and then EMAILATTACHMENTS and look in any folders you find here then using touch explorer copy and paste the file to the WINDOWS folder and overwrite.
Then set alert 10 as your chosen tone (or whatever number you used) and hey presto

looks like us without htc have to find an alternative to modify the filesystem? it seems touch explorer only works on htc devices for the time being. I did test out the advanced config tool, but it doesnt seem to have privs to modify much of anything yet
anyone else have luck on LG?

The problem here is that you and many others who have posted how to make ringtones haven't bothered to understand what the original post was asking. This is what is wrong with forums these days. You do a google search and you get a question asked in a forum and instead of any good info, you get a senior member "beating up" some guy for arriving at their site. If you do not want to answer questions then don't post. These types of forums are meant to be a help, so be HELPFUL. At least post a link that answers the question, not a google search that will bring them right back to their question.
The original post WAS NOT asking how to make ringtones; we all knew how to do that before Mango was released. The question was the ALERTS that WP7 uses for SMS, MMS, email and alarms. I too was doing my own footwork when I came upon this question. And of course like many other responses to my google search, they all talk about RINGTONES. I did however find on this forum a post that might answer this one's question.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1368361
The answerer mentions using something called touchxperience/touchxplorer, but does not go into any detail as to how he was able to accomplish this.
I can imagine I'll go to that post and reply as to how he did it and some senior member will beat me up and say something about how I should do my own research.
BE HELPFUL!! Please.

i had used heathcliff's file deployer and deployed to /my documents/my ringtones (i think it was a .wma)
then changed the registry path for sms ringtones to point to the file. i think i used wp root tools to change the registry entry since it was easier than finding it in the registry.
that should work for LG phones also

I tried it last month and all of the filesystem tools I had attempted were unable to make modifications. I tried Advanced explorer, diagprovxml(I think this was for maybe getting the wifi tether working..), and another one that I cannot recall at the moment. None of these were able to successfully modify the files properly.
LG still no go for me, unless someone else has gotten it to work since I last tried?

That is out dated information neither Touch experince nor Touch explorer are currently working on Mango. Supposedly there is a beta version that works on Mango but you have to donate and ask the dev to be a beta tester and wait and see if he actually responds. Well I'm waiting of a straight forward way.

[Q] Where is the "Search" buttom gone?

I dont know what happened, but i am not able to find the buttom to "search" in threads.
Maybe i am blind, but I cannot find it anymore.
Please help

Just confirming search seems to be deactivated.
Also if we had search we could try to search why it has been deactivated.
But also if you click onto a username to "find all posts by..." it says it's disabled. Don't know why anyway. I am a n00b on XDA-developers

One mod said they were looking into it yesterday... no repair ETA.
The missing search function also happens to break the "participated topics" tab of the tapatalk app.

I can't believe we have all these really smart developers and they can't figure out how to get the search back. Very ironic.

[Q] S-ON/S-OFF root Help? & Key Function List HELP?? PLEASE??

1st Question:
Ok so I had my phone rooted by a friend with S-ON and now I can gain access to the root menu by using “superuser” and “root explorer.” I was able to remap a few buttons using “ButtonRemapper,” which is a great program but the only problem is that it doesn’t remamp all of the functions I want. If I try to edit the doubleshot-keypad.kl file through Root explorer I still cannot gain R/W access. I can only gain R/W access in the “/system” folder. Anything after that will still restrict the access to R/O (i.e. /system/usr/keylayout which is the file I want to edit). Is this because the phone was rooted with S-ON or am I doing something else wrong???
2nd Question:
I need help locating key functions for my T-mobile Mytouch 4g slide. I just need to know what are the code numbers for the long-press function of the 4 buttons on the front of the phone and not the keyboard. I want to change them and I’m not exactly sure how. Can anyone help?!?
I know the original function for the quick-press is like this:
# physical keys
key 102 HOME
key 139 MENU
key 158 BACK
key 188 FUNC_4
I’m trying to change the long-press function of those buttons. Also does anybody know what the button for the key number 107 goes?? It says that key 107 = ENDCALL but there is no physical button for that function anywhere 0_o

Good you looked down Now a much easier way is to flash Clockworkmod. With Clockworkmod, you can flash custom roms now if you wish get a custom rom close to stock (MikTouch). When you download it, unzip the rom and make your edits to the /usr folder and rezip and flash.

ok what post would you be referring to? ive been looking at the threads and i cant seem to find any leads. could u help me out???

Respect is earned even for senior members. An arrogant answer is only given to an arrogant response. I obviously made a mistake by posting a question in the wrong section, and I own up to that. but the response given to me by Agent:
check your self said:
was uncalled for. somebody with better ppl skills would have simply said "sorry but i believe you posted in the wrong section. try the q&a thread instead. they can help you out better over there." That could've worked out just fine.
If you actually look at the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192282&page=8 you'll see that I actually did some research b4 posting here. I was scolded by Agent yet again without even attempting to help me out. Another senior member had to step in and come to my defense because they felt that Agent was scolding me without reason.

Thank you xmc wildchild22 for replying to the issue. I just hope your "look down" response isn't referring to the:
[MOD] ( any ROM ) Hardware Key Mapping | Flashable zips & Requests ( GB & ICS )
and the:
[MOD] Re-Mapping Keys (Genius Button to Search - www/com button to TAB) and more..
threads which have already been recommend to me by WeekendsR2Short. their solutions do not address the particular issues I'm posting on this thread. I've been to both of those threads and posted questions and comments concerning similar issues but just not this one which is a bit different.
If your referring to the:
[GUIDE] How to root MT4GS with any HBOOT (updated 07/28/12) or the: "[How To] Flash ICS ROMs with S-ON Unlocked"
then yes I've seen those guides as well but my htc driver refuses to read my phone. Ive installed and reinstalled the latest driver but it still wont recognize the mytouch 4g slide so I cant get to far on those guides. If your referring to another guide I have over looked somehow could you please just post a link instead of just telling me to "look down" since its obvious i'm having a hard time finding the right threads for my issues.

Thank you for posting that link to Blue6IX's thread I will have to ask questions about my issues with the phone on there as well. To answer your question YES, its acting like it doesn't even know that the phone is plugged into the PC even though the PC is reading the sdcard in my phone. and YES, I was sure to make sure that HTC Sync icon on the lower right corner wasn't running. After doing a little more research I found out that HTC doesn’t support the MyTouch 4g Slide http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/101/p/7603/58720.aspx
Another member also told me that “root access is root access regardless of S-ON or OFF.” I used “Root Checker” to confirm if I had the phone unlocked for root access and I did. So the real question is why can I only gain R/W access in the “/system” folder and not any other when using "root explorer??" is there any other app that can get me to edit the doubleshot-keypad.kl file manually?? or what can i do to fix this error in root explorer??

Your issue with root explorer is a REAL oddty to me. It's something I've never heard of. This may sound simplistic but it could be something as simple as an error downlading the app. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
VERY strange!

Well after doing yet even more research I found a work around solution to my first issue which is to simply install another root program called "Root Browser." It basically has the same functions as "Root Explorer" but it has its own proprietary text editor and the app icon is strangely similar to "Superuser" one. So if any1 else with a Mytouch 4g slide has this problem at least they will know what to do from here.:laugh:
I guess all that's left is to find a solution for my second issue. Blue6IX hasn't responded to anybody in the forums in awhile so trying to find a solution to the long-press buttons seems like its going to be another up hill battle. Thank you WeekendsR2Short for your responses. :good: I guess nobody else at XDA knows anything about long-press button features, or they don't seem to care :crying:

I know that sometimes it may seem that way Pantherz....but take my word for it, they DO care. They wouldn't be here if they didn't.
