[Q] Helps - Touch2 Themes and Apps

i need helps in opening Jblend apps~~
after installed the Java games, my htc touch 2 is able to open it. However, when it came to the gaming screen, my "Keyboard Icon" will pop up, and the icon bars block the selection keys.
Anyone can help me in this problem?
Furthermore, how can we differentiate what applications will cause the HTC touch 2 become disfunctional where only a hard reset is required.

Today Screen Scrollbar ...

Hello!
I am wondering if it is possible to remove the scrollbar that shows up on the today screen? I have seen somewhere on the threads that you can remove the scrollbar from a today plugin. But is there any way using the registry?
- TKN
The only way to do that is to not put more on it than it can show all at once. You can however make the scrollbars thinner by editing the registry.
HKLM\System\GWE-cxVScr for verticle scrollbars and changing the value to a number less than 13
HKLM\System\GWE-cxHScr for horizontal scrollbars
ehhh...
......
Well I do not have more than the screen but it still shows the scrollbar and moves just a little bit up and down. And because of that, it is covering one of my tabs from SPB Pocket Plus.
- TKN
if u have good eyes, you can reduce the text size, go to start > settings > system > screen and the text tab....
You could take off an unnecessary plugins from Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Today -> Items
But i'm guessing you need all the stuff on the today screen...
I have the same problem occasionally with cLaunch. If you have even one pixel more than what can be shown on the screen it'll put up that damn scrollbar. I also ran in to that problem before when I didn't have too much on the screen but for some reason it would be there anyway until I rotated the screen by opening the keyboard and then when I closed it again it would magically dissappear. I never did figure out why that was happening, but it hasn't happened since I started flashing new ROMS.
Just came up with 3 possibilities to fix your problem.
1. Check and see if pocket plus has a heighth adjustment. If it does, adjust it to be a few pixels shorter and see if the scrollbar dissappears.
2. If you don't use the icons in the system tray for anything, use explorer or explore in activesync and go to windows\startup and remove the Init_Tray.lnk and then soft reset. The system tray will be gone and you'll have that much extra room on your today screen and the scrollbar should dissappear after that.
3. Install this cab that I'm uploading. It's called vjtoggletoday-removing bottom bar. It removes the bottom bar that has the calendar and contacts links on them. You will still be able to use the soft keys just above the call and end keys to bring them up when ever you want, but you'll gain the extra space on your today screen where the bottom bar used to be.
another option would be to use the nice today plugin SPB Mobile Shell. It makes it possible to safe a lot of space on your today screen. It works very well with any other today plugin (eg Pocket Plus, Phone Alarm, SPB Wheather, etc). Still one of my favorite pocket pc programs!
I am using all of the SPB today plugins. I fixed the problem by having two lines instead of three in BatteryStatus. Appreciate everyones help.

yeah but i still rather have someone do a hack that will remove the scrollbar on the today screen. somtimes we want to have stuff there on the right height just without the scrollbars ...
can someone come up with a hack for this ? removing the scrollbar for today screen.

How do I disable the keyboard???

Hi there,
here's a question relating to the soft-keyboard:
I noticed that with some applications (e.g. PHM reg editor) when I want to punch in a value and hit the corresponding field the keyboard will pop up (which is perfect so far). Now, the keyboard sometimes hides the OK button which I'd have to hit to accept the changes but somehow I can't convince the keyboard to go back where it came from - there's no button to disable or change it (like the "12" button you sometimes see in the bottom).
What can I do to get rid of the keyboard in such situations? Is there maybe a hardware button??
Thanks a lot
There's an icon between the soft keys on the bottom of the screen that changes according to the desired input method. Touch that and a keyboard will magically disappear, regardless of the selected input method.
The input method icon, is always displayed when there's a possibility for text input.
ps.: RTM

Read the manual and like I said:
There's NO icon displayed at the bottom of the screen!
Then use another program, that's the best workaround that i can come up whith..
Or there's the possibilty of a greater underlying problem that would need a Hard Reset to fix it... so far you're the first whith this problem...
Indeed, I've had this too before, try using WM6 compatbile software, I though that was my problem a few weeks ago. An example is Mozilla Minimo, which is horrible on WM6, not being able to remove the keyboard, or even better, hiding it, but not refreshing the contents behind the keyboard

Exactly, Minimo is another one of those applications that show this problem.
How about changing your default kb to something else?
There is a reg hack to disable the SIP from displaying when you put focus on any text field, but that is not a good solution for a device that doesn't have a physical kb. I use it on my Treo 750 since I don't need the SIP. However, on the TC, it would make much sense.
On a bit of a side note, I have heard that if TC owners want to use another kb besides the standard Xt9 version, you need to apply the following to disable it:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409
Ime File=\windows\compime.dll
Layout Text=COMP IME
To Turn on again
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409
Ime File=\windows\eT9Ime.dll
Layout Text=eT9 IME
Did your registry tweaks will stop pop up of any keyboard when accessing a text area?
That's what I 'm looking for. Because I installed a full screen keyboard and I use it with a button.
Thxs.
up!!!
Pleaaaaase'!
This app will keep the keyboard from poping up automatically. You can still open it manually. I've not tried it with WM6.

Thanks a lot!
It works!
what full screen keyboard are you using?
I use SPB full keyboard.

How to call TaskManager from Games,FS Apps?

Hello,
Is it posible to call task manager in games or other full screen programs where all HW buttons are reassigned to them?
I have tryed to assign task manager to HW key in Windows settings, but it doesnt work in games etc. Only thing that woks almost every time was HTC Cube from Touch FLO v2, but it was more bad than good (because sliding up is quite common move in games) and I am not using HTC Cube at all now.
So is there any way (by long press of any button for example or special touch move), any program or any task manager where such thing is possible and works in every (or most of) game and full screen program?
Any help will be great,
thanks.
Why do you need to reach the task manager from the games?
Because some programs running in full sreen (and not necessarily games) stop responding, dont have exit button, hang-up... and I cant escape them other than soft-reseting the device.
So I need something how to reach task manager from these stucked programs and close them without reseting.
Also sometimes could be handy, if I can minimize them and switch to other program (SMS, music player etc.) and than go back. But still most important is the first thing.
Every program except the games can be minimized whith the red button... but I don't know if the WM6 can handle hung programs as a normal desktop OS... even if it comes around it's still faster to do a soft-reset (in most cases)...
Yeah I am talking about programs where red button is remaped or not working at all.
So there is no possibility how to close such apps without SR?

not really... unless some1 knows otherwise...
Yes, it a Multi-Task device, but don't expect it to handle crashed apps like the desktop versions of Windows..
Ok, thanks,
even if I dont mean directly "crashed" apps like on desktop PC. But sometimes it didnt have hw exit button and touch screen didnt reponding or something like that.
Never mind I keep SR device

Request Help - SIP Question

Hi,
I am just new to this pocket PC phone (just the old HTC Touch) and i tried out installing an IP Phone Keyboard program. When I wasnt happy about it, i uninstalled it but it messed up my SIP. The default standard input keyboard now is cut at the bottom (meaning i dont see the entire last row of Ctrl, space bar, etc.) but there's a black row appearing at the top of the input keyboard. It looks like the input keyboard was dragged down. Worse, the suggested words now appear at the bottom of the screen (where your normal Send or Cancel buttons are).
I really would appreciate your advise and help in getting this resolved. Dont know where to run to or whom to raise this to.
Thank you and looking forward to your response.

Restart your PPC. After that go to settings--> input---> select default input keyboard and try.
Hope it will help.
Are you using the default keyboard?
You can install any other SIP and it should work fine even if the default keyboard's having problems.
You can also hard reset incase you don't manage anything else.
I'm not aware of a bug concerning the default keyboard showing wrong except for something which goes away after a soft reset.
Thanks very much for your responses. Unfortunately, I did all that (set keyboard as default, try installing another keyboard software, soft reset and hard reset) but the problem still persists. I am almost in the vicinity of regretting why i had this PPC.
can you specify exactly which app caused this problem?

[Q] Active apps and buttons on touch down events

I'm trying to get my father to use a spare android phone that I have. I he's a senior so accessibility is a big concern. I've used a launcher to make the text and icon size pretty big.
But now he's having trouble with simple taps. When he tries to hit an icon or button, he accidentally does a small swipe of the icon causing it not to load.
I've realized no apps or links run on the initial touch down event but on the release (as long as there isn't a swipe or hold). Is there a way to change this so that the touch down event activates links?
Any help is appreciated.
