Hi,
Just got my hd2 (tmobile) day before yesterday and its amazing, i can go on and on about it
on my previous winMo device i had spb mobile shell installed which allowed me to add a shortcut tab "my shortcuts" on the home screen clicking on which would open a window where i could have my favorite programs, contacts, docs etc in one place.
is this possible to do this on the home screen of sense UI, where there are 9 customizable tabs present or is it possible to put a shortcut of any folder on the home screen.
i ask this question because one of tabs on the home screen has a transformers icon on it, and clicking it takes me to the transformers folder on the sd card which has transformers 1 and 2. this same transformers icon/shortcut is also present in programs menu.
i added some mp4 files in the transformers folder on the sd card which has both movies and after doing that when i click on its icon it does direct me to its folder but only shows me the 2 movies not the added mp4 movies.
i hope iam able to explain myself
having a shortcut tab on the home screen which can add a shortcut to a folder would be very helping other than just having the stock program, bookmark, contact options.
thanks in advance.

Touch and hold over an Icon, and drag it off the screen to delete it. Tap to add a new shortcut.
Look into Cookies Home Tab editor to add more shortcuts
Explore folders, find and select program file and hold it, tap copy, now explore windows folder-startmenu- programs- edit- paste shortcut, done. Now you can add it to quick links. If I understand you right.

If you are referring to Cookies Home Tab editor, yes it is uninstallable.
i have a couple of movies in my storage card and i would like to have an icon on my device to each movie on my storage card, that way i can put them in my quick links ,
The T-MoUS version, has Transformers pre-installed. it has a Transformers icon in the start menu that when selected, it opens a window with both movies lined up in a list type format located in the storage card . Is there a way to create your own?

i had to return mine today at the store because it had a small spot inside the screen, maybe a dead pixel, giving the same affect as you would see when you would sprinkle a drop of water on LCD.
the store reps. were acting up for a replacement saying that even when they get new onces they have already reserved them for new customers, also the tmobile (611) rep told me they would be able to help me had i purchased the phone online
so i returned it
Hello everyone, I'm new to the Windows Mobile OS and had a few questions on it. I just picked up an HTC HD2 and I am LOVING this guy more and more since I found this site. I had a lot of fun customizing my iPhone, but I've been having a little trouble with my HD2. Here is what I was looking for:
1. Whenever I look into the Photos & Videos every photo and video on the device is show in the album. Is there a way to hide certain photos or folders so they don't show?
2. I have a set of videos I placed into one folder. Whenever I look into the folder, the videos all show as thumbnails. Is there a way to set it so I see the names of the videos and not the thumbs?
3. The T-MoUS version, has Transformers pre-installed. When I click Start, it has a Transformers icon that when selected, it opens a window with both movies lined up in a list type format. I found the Transformers.exe in the windows folder. Is there a way to create your own? (Kinda the same as question 2)
4. Can the "honeycomb" menu that shows when you click start, have the icons moved around freely? The only thing I've found is you hold an icon and you get the option to "Move to Top". I want to move them anywhere and not have to keep moving everything to top if I want something on the third row from the bottom.
Sorry for the long winded questions... any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

PS-I tried using Search for these answers, but could not get anything.
Unrooted stock.
I cannot copy a link from the browser on this phone, neither the stock browser nor chrome. It just hangs and FCs.
Anyone else experience this? Any solutions?
I have used the share function in the past but sometimes the links are pretty messy like that.
TIA
I just copied and pasted the URL from stock and Opera browsers, then pasted them into new browser windows. No problems here - touched the URL to select, then long-pressed to do a Copy, etc.

Are you running stock? For me, chrome just FCs if I try to copy a URL and I just tried it again on the stock browser and it seems to copy but when I long press to paste I get a clipboard pop up under the URL bar and when I touch that nothing happens.
My other ICS device is the Sony Tablet S and this is not an issue on that device with any browser, eg stock, chrome, dolphin, skyfire etc.
Might have to give Opera another try, gave it up years ago but hopefully I can just use it for copy/paste.

Sorry to hear that - I wonder if you are running something that possibly intercepts clipboard events? I'm running stock and once rooted (using the quick method) for making a Titanium backup, but unrooted later that same day - so, stock and unrooted right now on my Galaxy S III 32GB.
I did the copy/paste test in both the stock browser and Opera. I've moved to Opera as my default browser because it word-wraps page text dynamically when I zoom in or out (no pinching, Apple - don't sue me! NO PINCHING!!).
*ahem*
On the stock browser, I pulled down the URL bar and touched the URL once to select the entire address, then touched on that selection until the clipboard panel appeared below the notification pane. Clicked the Copy icon to the right of the scissors icon, then opened a new browser window from the Menu, selected the default URL text from a single touch, held down my finger on the selected text until the clipboard panel appeared and hit the Paste icon to the right of the Copy icon. Worked great.
Something else that's neat is if you select text and then touch next to that, you'll get a text selection arrow. Touch on the arrow itself briefly and a popup offers "clipboard" as one action - if you click that, your clipboard cache is shown in scrollable form at the bottom of the display.

Hi folks,
Hopefully someone can help out with this issue. It's probably incredibly simple!
When I am in an album in gallery, I can tap "more" in the top right hand corner and select slideshow. This creates a slideshow for the whole album - no problems there.
However, when I selected a few photos and go to "more" , the slideshow option disappears. I've had the Galaxy S2-S5 previously and never had this problem. Surely this feature hasn't been removed?
Any help would be welcome
Running a new, rooted Verizon Galaxy S5 G900VVRU2BPB1
I have some image files on my SD card I wanted to use as wallpaper. I searched all over the place the only instructions I see are to open Settings>Wallpaper and then select "Other Images" on the bottom left of the bar. My problem is that I have no "Other Images" button. The far left button/box says From Gallery and then it's a bunch of stock wallpaper selections in the bar. If I choose From Gallery I only see the photos I've taken with my phone with no way to browse to another location. The only two options are a sort and Cancel.
I have some custom launchers I'm playing around with but is there a way, with my phone and build, to set external (from the gallery) images as wallpaper?
Thank you!
