increase scrolling speed of the star menu

as written by Title, is possible to increase the scrolling speed of the star menu?
I don't know if is possible to set a parameter with one system editor..i would like to have a scrolling as,for example,in the program "S2U2",and precisely when you chose in this program your wallpaper because is too much fast of the normal velocity of the htc star menù
I hope I don't ask too much.
thanks in advance!

is my first post and so I would to thanks all of you for your fantastic work for htc device,thanks so much, because now I love my device.
I love this forum!
I hope someone can help me, I think is not difficult for all of you.

ok, i see you are talking about the start screen and i guess you do not know that scrolling here is programmed to stop after each screen.
for each swipe the screen is scrolling and it stops when full, next swipe another one screen down and so on...
the scrolling is not continuous like in the all programs or contacts but it is screen by screen. this gave you the impression that is slow.
this is done so u are not going to "over shoot" / over scroll and then have to scroll back.
i know i might be not clear enough but this the best i can do.
i do not think u can improve it.

is the START MENU'
excuse me to all.
I forget the "T" letter.

I understand,thanks for your explanation, is precisely that I tried to say,but english is not my language and it is for me not simply to say.
thanks so much for your interest.

if someone discover a method to increase it,say me.
thanks =)

ah-start menu. I read star,then s2u2,then wallpaper...so I was confused.
Did you tried this:

This start menu make my crazy too .
For me this is absolutly stupid way to scroll page by page.
The idea of this kinetic scroll (if I not wrong with the name) is the scroll distance to depend of the finger slide speed.
If somebody have solution, I will be grateful too!

You need to flash either a WM6.5.X ROM (builds 28xxx and 23xxx) or a ROM based on Windows Mobile build 23016.
OR you try this: Copy the physicsengine.dll file from the attached .zip to your Windows directory and overwrite the old one. Then restart the device.
You need a file manager like Total Commander or Resco Explorer for this, the built in File Explorer is not able to overwrite system files.
However, this could do all sorts of damage to your system, maybe it won't boot anymore or something else. Try it at your own risk

Yes, but I cannot guarantee that it will work, and you should maybe back up your system before you do this.

Hi to all XDA users

Another question...

P.S. Sorry for my english and sorry for the stupid question but i'm a newbie

Why nobody answer him? I'd also want to know how to change SYSTEM FILES particularly Themes in WM 6.5.x. Next steps will be "changing of menu entries" till "advanced options" like idividual choosing of different options/views (means 2, 3, 4, 5 cols in startmenu) without installing *.cab files.
Thanks a lot.

I did some unsuccessful research, so any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You would most likely have to edit one of the .dll files.. which would take even more time just to search for the how-to on that. But you can check here to see if there's and easy tweak, and here to see if manila files are involved
But the easiest way to find the answer, and always is, the search bar

Hi guys,
I truly appreciate both your help, those links are very informative, but unfortunately for me, there is nothing related to my question.
As I said, before posted my question, I did some search on the forum and on the web, but without success, so I decided to post hoping someone can help me about it, but I'm still waiting for a solution please wait 2 seconds for an uncompressed image, or press Ctrl+F5 for original quality page

The small clock in the taskbar is a WinMo 6.5.x item/issue, so probably you'll have to be in that forum section with your question.
regards, Kuzibri

As previous posters stated - it cannot be done in an easy way via registry editing. To give example - the battery taskbar icons are included in one of the .dll files in Windows folder, so changing their looks requires .dll editing - which can be done (you can search this forum for 'custom taskbar'), but sometimes has unpleasant side-effect as disappearance of volume slider.
Having said that, I'd suggest excellent BattClock by - which can provide you a clock color of your choosing and lots of other stuff

Hi Kuzibri,
I think my issue is in the right section because it is a WinMo 6.5 with the start icon in the top/left side into the taskbar.

Hi p107r0,
Well, I appreciate your explanation, but I thought it might be somewhat similar way to that described by Ephestione in his useful thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698616
Also, I appreciate your suggestion about BattClock which is very good, but personally I like the simplicity and nice look of the Battline one and unfortunately there is a kind of conflict between those programs.
Thank you very much.

Any other idea? please.....please wait 2 seconds for an uncompressed image, or press Ctrl+F5 for original quality page

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

I am not sure I understand your question. 我不明白你说的什么

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.

do you see the icon of WOW HD Settings? That's the icon which I can't change and I do not understand why!

If you can not see it in JWD then you will need hunt it in the registry & link a PNG file to it.
Have a look at this thread to help pin it down in registry:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6188525&postcount=1
If you have problems finding it you could export & upload parts of the registry tree for us to help.
Other option if you have installed srsWOW via cab is to edit cab/exe icons prior to install.
*JWD tip: some icons show as default JWD paint pallet & no text so you got to guess what they are ! have another good look ...
