Hello,
When starting my 9090 I get a message "Impossible to find SmartFilter.exe check the file or the access path..." and the Pocket remains stuck for a while.
I suppose the uninstall process of the trial version of this programm did'nt run complete, and left an entry somewhere.
Searching for 'smartfilter' doens'nt give any result.
Where to search for autorun/autoload folder or key in the registry ?
Thanks for any help.

Go to \windows\startup\ and delete the shortcut for that program. I'm not sure that's your problem, but it sounds like it to me.
If not, then go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7136&highlight=regedit
or search around. I know there are two versions floating on this board. I think the previous is the one I use/prefer. Also, I've been told that when connected via activesync, you can use windows regedit to access your device???? Not sure though.
Good luck, and if you muss up your device, it's NOT MY FAULT!!!!
No way :-/
Thanks, but it's a glue... :?
Neither Windows/startup nore deleting entries of NOVOSEC/Smartfilter helped.
I'm going to reinstall the trial version, and uninstall again :twisted:

Gone !

Edit: okay, next time i swear i will use the search button first:

Dit this work for you? On my BA (Original Qtek 9090 Dutch Rom) i do not see any buttons after installing the setup file.
Great hack. Really cool.
Does anyone know how to remove it?
I can't seem to get rid of:
\Windows\AddHotkeys.exe
Even if I do it immediately after a soft-reset, it doesn't work. The file is always in use.
I've tried numerous things, but no luck...
Thanks!

Hi Michael,
happily i know how to remove the things! I cant get it working so its useless 2 me.
Solution:
Open your (PC) explorer and go to your device (in cradle and on activesync) and into the folder \windows\start up\
Rename or remove (didnt remeber surely) the file addbuttons.exe (ie addbuttons.bak) and reboot (soft reset). You can get an error that the lnk addbuttons.bak cannot be found, if so click okay and continue.
Then delete the program via settings\remove programs and after if necessary, remove the addbutton.bak file from \windows\start up\.
Probably this solves your problem.
(But did you really liked it, did it work for u on your 9090?)

try to use this:
safemode at http://www.monocube.com/
I find it very useful
This is great stuff, guys!
Thanks!
I'll give it a shot.
Although, funnily, last night I was reading a PDF book, and I started getting used to the hack! I may leave it now!!
Silly me!
But these are great to know!
Thank you!

Hallo
i found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486712
With this program you can assign anny program to the "software" startbutton.
I mapped YotaCenter to start button and would say its far better than the new windows startmenu and the new htc start menu.
It has several advantages. YotaCenter enables you to place favorite apps in an easy way and brings a taskmanager.
Also other program launchers are better than the windows/htc one - so give this startbutton app a try
I want to do this could you tell me what I have to do as that thread is a bit confusing for a nooby?
Thanks
thanks!!!
hI MARKUSSIEBERT!! Thank you for your great app. I am happy finally! Thanks
has anyone got this working on dutty 2.3?
Yes - im using it with dutty 2.3 even if it seems that there are some unexpected behavios.
Unexpected behaviors are:
-sometimes (ever 15 - 20th touch) the original startmenu appears, but its ok
-a second click on "Start" doesnt close the launcher window (because it only launches)
How to use it:
1. install the cab
2. open any registry editor
3. goto HKCU\software\allelimo\StartButton\Run
4. change the value to what you want to start
If you want to launch:
\Program Files\MyApplicationFolder\MyApplication.exe
you have to insert:
MyApplicationFolder\MyApplication.exe
if you want to start an application that is not on the Program Files folder, you can write the full path instead:
\Memory Card\Program Files\MyApplicationFolder\MyApplication.exe
How to extend the hook to the "Start" text?
HKCU\software\allelimo\StartButton\HookText
Set this value to 1 for hooking the word "Start"
Delete the key for hooking only the Start button
yeah, i could get it to work from the memory card, but i reinstalled yota onto the phone and i got it working..
as you said clicking start doesnt close it,
one more (i dont know if it is limited to dutty 2.3) if you click to the right of the start text the normal start menu will come up, every time..
you have to diasble the new htc startmenu first,
To enable "old" LargeMenu (Disable new manila start menu):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu\Enable ManilaStartMenu =dword:00000000
then configure this tool...works for me
Hello friends,
I am trying to figure out how to script a specific registry change which I can toggle off and on on my Rhodium without manually running a registry editor. The registry key I want to be able to toggle between 0 and 1 is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Console\OutputTo
I have searched heavily, and read about MortScript, but I feel there must be a better way to get this very simple task done.
The reason I want to be able to toggle the above registry key between 0 and 1 is to properly run a Command Prompt (like DOS prompt) on our lovely Rhodium. If you happen to be interested in getting the Command Prompt on your Rhodium see the web site listed below (everything will work as soon as we can toggle the above registry key, without being able to toggle the key the Rhodium's boot process will get clogged by the command prompt window, which is quite a nuisance).

If anyone has any ideas I would be very great full. Thank you!
Can't you just cab up two separate registry tweaks and then create shortcuts to them?
Making Cabs from two registry tweaks would be ideal, and I am asking someone for a hint on how to accomplish this.
If anyone has any idea on how to create/write a registry tweak and 'compile' it into a Cab please advise.
Thank you in advance
i could make up a simple EXE to do this will that help?
please PM me more info regardign it
Thank you for the offer, I actually spent more time on it and figured out how to create two .CAB files, one would set the registry to "0" and the other would set the registry to "1", but I was not able to create an .EXE file.
If you have a minute to create an actual .EXE file that would be superb to my solution of two .CAB files.
I am attaching the two .CAB files for the group.
try the attached exe and let me know
just copy to device and run it
I appreciate the attempt, but unfortunately the application you wrote does not produce consistent results in my quick testing. Sometimes pressing Visible changes the registry key and sometimes it doesn't, it seems like pressing the Invisible key has no change upon the registry at all.
If you could revisit the code that would be great.
Thanks
I have an HTC HD Mini with Manila 2.5.20131825.3 I am not sure which program I did uninstall and the quicklaunch icon asociated to that program become light grey.
Now when I clic on that icon a message appears sayin that "" file cannot be open...
you can see the screens at

ttp://img63.imageshack.us/img63/5952/capture2iy.jpg
Can anyone tell me on which file or registry key does the manila save the quicklaunch links so I can erase this entry because using the gui I cannot either remove it or add a new one instead. It is becomeng me crazy as hell.
Thanks a lot!!!!
Which ROM version are you using? Maybe there's a ROM upgrade available
my ROM version is 1.36.412.1 (94538) ESN
Do you know if there is an update?
In case there is an update available if I apply the new ROM will that erase the whole device? I mean, would I need to re-install all the software? because I have several programs and I would have to start recollecting the installers before erasing the device.
Thanks a lot for your answer!.
You have the newest ROM. And yes, when you install a ROM update all data on your device is erased. You can compare it to install Windows 7 on a XP machine, all data should be back-upped.
I don't know what's causing your issue here. I'll try to reproduce it And then try to solve of course
Possible solution
All right, this is what you should do
Just install the cab file below and reboot your device Because I can't make a cab file with only registry tweaks, there will be a txt file in your My Documents folder Just delete it
