any ideas ???

I'm afraid those screens are in ROM, as the logos appearing when you place or receive a call.
Still didn't check if the "Cooking Recipees" available do apply as well for the Excalibur so atm wouldn't really be able to suggest a way to change them.

I added the keynumber thingy I got from surreal apps then deleted it.My calling screen disappered.I still have the things on the phone they just dont show up anymore.Just some information.

Hey,
I want to disable the function to change the today background.
You find it --> Start -> Settings --> Today -> Use this picture...
I want to disable the text AND the Button "Find" - so that the customers cannot change the logo.
I don't find the right key in the registry.
I use Windows Mobile 6 with the latest HTC Flash.
Who can help me?
Thanks and best regards from Germany.

No ideas?
because i've got two other problems.
1.) I want to delete the entries in the list of installed programs. So that the user cannot delete the program. Is it possible? Or can I protect it with password?
2.) We created a background logo, at the bottom it is white.
When the menu has got more than 5 entries you can not read the menu well.
Because white font over white background.
Is it possible to restrict the entries of last used applications to X entries ?
Even if there IS a way to do these things...
...it's quite evident, even from the site on which you're posting, that you will not be able to lock down such changes. Anyone who is so motivated will be able to get past anything you do, simply by flashing a new ROM, if not by other means, dontchathink?
-pvs
simple answer, you cant.
Actually, it would be semi-possible. Jasjamming had a bug in an early Black edition where he baked in his background rather than had it running in the initial setup. End result was you could change your background in the menus but it couldn't change what you saw as the backdrop files were marked as "ROM" so couldn't be changed.
The only way to install a program without it showing in the Remove Programs list is to bake it into your custom ROM installed on the phone.
However, when you've gone to the time & effort of making this ROM that cannot be customised, what's going to stop someone using a ROM from this site instead of yours, or using the tools here to modify your ROM and remove out the bits you've tried to lock down?
My advice? Don't try to lock anything down on your phone! The beauty of Windows Mobile it's ability to be improved & personalised. Let it run free!
Hi,
the problem with the list of installed programs isn't a problem anymore
I made a ROM with the ROM Kitchen und put the cab File into the ROM.
My first solution was to delete the uninstaller from the CAB with WinCE CAB Manager. But i want also to change the colors of the menu and things like that, so i made an own ROM.
So, you are right, the users could use programs from here, but, we want to "brand" the phone with our company logo, because the users should be awake that the phone is a COMPANY Phone and not a private toy
So now my last two problem are, that our company logo at the bottom is on a white ground and the menu has got a white font color. So i want to change the number of menu items or i want to change the color.
Does anybody knows the concerning files for the colors in the ROM?
The second is to disable the possibility to change the wallpaper.
It would be great if someone could tell me which files i have to change.
Thanks a lot and best wishes from Germany

The problem with the start menu i solved with Tweak UI.
But the problem with the possibility to change the background is still existing.
Where i have to look? In the registry? In the files?
Its only a windows, it must be possible to change this option...
Finally found the post I was remembering where someone had accidentally set a theme permanently.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1252607&postcount=276
The theme was usually set during the initial customisation following the first boot up, but in this case JasJamming had tried to save this step by baking it into the ROM - with the result that you couldn't change theme. Sorry I can't give you any more info on how it happened (don't know!) but JJ or someone else on here with a bigger brain than me should be able to help.
Hey Stu,
thanks for your answer.
But i have allready only one theme. The problem is that the users can change the 'today-background' easily. Our company logo wouldnt be on the background.
I think this is a forum with a lot of pros! But the right one has to find my thread, please
That's exactly what I'm talking about. Use your theme on a phone, copy out the stwater and tdywater files,then cook these into your ROM and flash onto the phone. As the stwater and tdywater files are set as "ROM" the today-background changer won't be allowed to over-write them so the user will not actually be able to change the background - hence your company logo will always be there.
Good luck, and don't forget to change the start-up screens too - maybe a nice portrait shot of the Managing Director?
Hello. I've seen some threads about this, but none has helped me. So, I've a TP2 that came with a French ROM and now I've flashed it with a Portuguese one and it's working just fine. The problem is that the QWERTY keyboard is totaly mixed up, because the layout as been changed.
Assuming that it is not possible to change the hardware (if it is please tell me how!!!!!!), how can I modify the layout back to the original one???
Hope someone can help me and feel free to use this thread for the same kind of questions!
There is an easy way to fix it. You can do exactly as I did. Reflash the stock rom. Open a registry editor and export this folder
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
Then flash the rom you want and import that folder and you will be good.

So, changing the hardware keyboard is not possible, or is it?
By the way, if someone could get the folder for me, someone that has the French version, i wouldn't have to reflash the stock rom would I?
Is it is possible i would try to find someone that could get it for me...

I just don't see why you would go through the hassle. It takes 30 minutes to flash the stock, get the stuff, and flash back. It will take much more time to find manuals, wait for parts, etc to swap the hardware keyboard.
Yes, if you had someone else that can export that part of the registry, you would be good.

Quite true... I only thought about it because I'm so used with the QWERTY. But probably it's better just change the layout. Thank you for your help!!!
No problem!
I made the changes needed and it worked, by changing:
- HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
CurLang = 1036
- HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
Active = 0000040c
But there is still something wrong, like when I press:
FN + A... it should appears the "à" but it doesn't
FN + Z... should be "è"
FN + R... should be "é"
FN + S... should be "ê"
FN + D... should be "ô"
FN + F... should be "ù"
I think this are the only ones that doesn't work right... does anybody knows how to fix it?
Hey folks,
i've found many people in the web with the same question but nobody had an answer to it yet:
i'm on arhd 5.1.4 with a mod that gave me additional quick settings in the notification bar. i would like to remove some of them because i won't use them..
is there a way to do this? i mean, the dev added some settings, it can't be that hard to remove them again...
maybe there is a way to modify the installation-zip-file before flashing the mod?
thanks guys!
You would have to patch the SystemUI.apk (edit some smali files).
Try asking capychimp, he managed to add settings so I'm pretty sure he can tell you how to remove them.
thanks! will try it and report when i got a solution!
fyi
bad news. no way to do this for non-developers...
thx for that info
I searched exactly for the same "problem"
Hi guys. So I am working on an MIUI theme and I'm stuck at the keyboard. How on earth do I change all the orange (highlights, tips, function keys, etc.) to a different color? I've read something about theme_values?? But is there a sample you can download to edit or do you have to make it from scratch in eclipse? If so I have a hard time understanding how to make a project so I've done everything I can to avoid it. Any help pointing me in the right place is greatly appreciated. Thanks
no one can help me out? I've seen themes with it changed so I know it's possible I just don't know how to extract that part from that theme to put into my own. Please help!
