Does this lil hack include an alarm clock as well?? I had a Cingular Blackhjack for a while and I LOVED the alarm on that device, it had 9 different times it could go off, with or without snooze.. It did the job very well.. Thanks!

Samsung Clock cab
I made a cab for you guys, enjoy.
I'll update it when I can find the reg setting to remove the scroll from that particular Today Item, I think it'll look beter.
edited - I changed type = 5 which disables the scroll for that Today item.
Thanks for posting edward-riko!

Maybe I don´t get you right.., but you can change from 24 to 12 am/pm hours display in options. To open options you have to keep the touchscreen pressed for a second os so.

Wow, can't believe I missed that!
thanks!

This would be great app for me if the date format would be indicated the long way... "dddd dd.MMMM.yy"... Can it be changed?

Great little application!
Thanks to all.

In agree, as I would also like that.
But I am sure that the date format is linked to your Regional settings. - I may be wrong though.
If you look through the threads you can remove the time from the top bar - no use duplicating the time.
Edit 1: I left the battery incicator in the top bar.
Edit 2: I found the HTC Home cab. and have now installed that instead. I now have the clock, weather and launcher installed on Sleuth's ROM. It has slowed a little but works super for my applications. Still faster than JJ's latest.

Long date format - here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides, SLDte = for example, "dddd, dd MMMM yyyy". By Regional Settings change you do with pre-defined list of formats, but that can be changed manually after.
To remove the time from top bar... I'm not sure that make sense: time will be not visible in other apps too, where Today's clock we'll don't have... but - it is here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell, set ShowTitleBarClock to 0x0 (0); and TBOpt - to 0x0 (0) too (otherwise will be shown the Battery Icon instead).

You guys might want to try the program rlToday, it can do these and more.

Hi,
try the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides\SSDte Key. This key should be already there and if you do changes there it affects the displayed date left of the Samsung Clock - problem is - you don´t have enough space for the long date.

[help] how to change programs icon

I'd like to change the icons in the Programs Tab.
There is a simple way or I need to change manually 1 by 1 in the registry value?
and the registry value is this? :
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/Program-launcher/0/IconPath
?
Thanks to all!

You can easily change the program icons using the Diamond TF3D Config (found somewhere in this forum). Don't let the "Diamond" bother you - it works fine on the Touch HD!

Thank you so much!

I've try it, but after the scrolling of the program tab is really really slow and annoying
there are alternatives?

Notification Bar

I haven't seen this anywhere else on this forum, but is anyone else frustrated by the notification bar (top of screen) on the TP2?
On my kaiser I was used to being able to tap on each icon to take me directly into the relevant screen (e.g. Mail, calendar appointment, battery status, volume control or connections screen).
On the TP2 every icon just takes you into 'Notifications' and then you have to click again to go into mail or appointments, but there is no way to the battery, volume control or connections.
Is there any way of restoring the previous functionality of this bar?
Also - (unconnected) anyone know how to change the text colour on the Today screen?
Cheers,

Yup.... asking same question myself.

Get a registry editor, and find the key HKLM\Services\NOTIFICATIONMANAGER\Flags. It should be 0 by default - change it to 4. This stops the HTC notification manager running and restores the default WM functionality.

Works great. Thank you.
*edit* After hours of trying to find out why my text alerts (custom only) wouldn't ring. I changed the value back to "0" and my text alerts worked again. When I used the HTC stock text tones it would work, but not my custom ones. The phones ringtones and custom ringtones worked fine. Any ideas what would have caused the custom text tones not to work with this registry change?

If you are still having this problem, post the ROM version and the registry editor you are using and I can try to help you make the change to your registry key.

Thanks for the response
Rom version is: 1.19.61.3 (51489) WWE This is the standard Orange uk rom
For the registry editor i am using either Schaps registry editor on the phone or Mobile registry editor by Breaksoft on my pc.
Thanks in advance.

If you install the Topaz Notification Manager it gives you the battery status & an icon that'll bring you to the battery options.

Sorry, I am not familiar with that ROM. You can try using a different registry editor or just use the Topaz Notification Manager like xnifex suggested.

Listing currently used programs

Hi
Is there a possibility to view a list over last used programs simular as for the previous version of TF3D like on the Touch HD?
Mabye some tweak or program that would make this possible and easy/quick to use?
I would really like the option to quickly open last previous used programs even though the are closed/not running in the background.
Thanks!

If you click the windows/start button in the top left it shows the last 5 programs used just under the top bar.

you must change the Startmenu via Registry if you have the TF3D startmenu
running, before you can use the tipp from vHatch
HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu
EnableManilaStartMenu = 1(Default)/ 0 (OldWMstyle)

Oh, I thought my answer was too simple, lol. I have the TMO TP2 and didn't need to change the registry at all to have the windows start menu function.

If i want the HTC startmenu, how do i get that? Also, would someone post a screen shot of what it's supposed to look like? please? thanks

How to desactivate windows Start Menu (process)

Hi, I've seen that if I desactivated the built in start menu, my free ram was 30 mb more (really !) and as I use manila quicklinks, its not a problem for me to go where I want, then I think desactivate windows start menu in wm 6.5, 6.5.x builds would be very useful for device poor in ram (like mine) so is there a way to desactivate it ?
- I found a provisional way by changing the shellres.192.dll by one from a taskar theme (because it blocks the start menu launching, but the taskbars icons are not working too, not practical...) Has someone an idea to desactivate without changing this dll ?
thx in advance !
Arto

anyone have an idea? I thought it's a very interesting thing...

clear adequate CPR's(2), make sr.
i could recommend using quick menu + startbutton(menu overrider) + few reg fixes(for regaining missing entries with qm), otherwise you may meet annoying problem if logo is clicked(loop zero effect process problem and no menu at all, of course then).
you may gain c.a. 2, 2.5 mb of ram and make sys lighter in general by that.
if you are cook, you may remove m$ start menu AND then remove these feeble icons(as these are not used at all) from sys.

thx for your answer, yes I would cook with this tweak, where I can find the start menu module in SYS ?
- thats a good Idea to redirect start button on quickmenu , have you some precision about this way?
- deleting the .cpr would make start menu not loading all png and icons? (that's the problem for the ram I think)
- yes use the icons because there are visible from manila quicklincks and I need the registry strings in startinfo
thx again for your help

you CANNOT. it is embedded into, i dont know, shell32, or aygshell, imho. method below is way for desactivating it(whole honeycomb), just that(and it is ENOUGH).

not deleting, just erasing its contents(with notepad).
Icons WONT be cached and no start menu is available too(well, more like m$ menu is not, hm, activated, but HOOK IS(so, erased cprs may lead to weird ugly loop when you click logo/start, so startbutton is needed to overtake that hook)).
I have no idea about manila, never used it, but i assume that if it is using these icons, icons could be still cached(upd: BUT still, you will gain RAM, as honeycomb engine is not started).
names of cpr files to be cleared(for qvga) with notepad:
StartMenu_Global_240x320.cpr
StartMenu_Global_320x240.cpr
StartMenu_GridScene_240x320.cpr
StartMenu_GridScene_320x240.cpr

search for startbutton on xdadev(upd: i added sb in attachment).
its behaviour is determined by something like this:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\allelimo\StartButton]
"HookWinKey"=""
"HookText"="1"
"Run"="\\Windows\\QuickMenu.exe"
as you can see, you may use whatever you like to be launched by logo/"start" TEXT.
Startbutton needs shortcut in windows/startup to be activated.
btw, remember to make reg entries for undetermined CPLs, 6.5.x messed these up(so, i.e. "home" - ex-"today", and few more won't be visible in qm settings submenu without regfix).
Cannot help you with that one as my device uses nontypical reg for CPLs(different from htc method).

if you want to cook this in, you may want to make trick with initflashfiles.dat then:
make EMPTY txt(i.e. Honeycomb_off.txt), throw it into any oem.
then add sth like this to initflashfiles.dat(or initflashfile.txt):
Directory("\Windows\Startup\"):-File("startbutton.lnk","\Windows\startbutton.lnk")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("StartMenu_Global_240x320.cpr","\Windows\Honeycomb_off.txt")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("StartMenu_Global_320x240.cpr","\Windows\Honeycomb_off.txt")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("StartMenu_GridScene_240x320.cpr","\Windows\Honeycomb_off.txt")
Directory("\Windows"):-File("StartMenu_GridScene_320x240.cpr","\Windows\Honeycomb_off.txt")

Thank you for this great answer ! I will try this and report my results !

Nice answer!
I have a different question for you related to the honeycomb.txt
personally i like the start menu of WM6.5.x, but the one thing i cannot stand is the honeycomb effect, do you know of a way to change the honeycomb so that the icons appear in a straight line, like a grid?
eg 5 collumns across and then X rows down.
thanks in advance

Unfortunately, i do not remember.
I modded honeycomb in such way once(but one column), then i decicded to not use hc at all(as a matter of fact i got rid of 6.5).
I am certain that i saw few methods of such mods here, on xdadev.
If i remember right it is matter of grid cprs reedits(mainly these bolded ones) +new ellipsis gfx:
<GridView ID="Start Menu Items List" Top="0" Left="0" Width="240" Height="268" Columns="3" Scrollable="TRUE" HexagonGrid="TRUE" HorizontalWrapAround="TRUE">

HC is quite moddable, as you can see, shame it is mem hungry.
upd: on a second thought, hmm, i am not sure, if it is possible(i mean more, than ONE column of items in such way as you were asking for). You asked for something like "Settings" panel look in 6.1, hard to say, if it's possible.
If it is, i t may be related to:
HexagonGrid="FALSE" + ..something.

Thank you, I cleaned the cpr files and I installed a cab to hide the start button in wm 6.5.x, thats perfect ! !

Thanks Pupacota! I have assigned my Start menu to MMAppLauncher!

If you want to make it work even with WM soft button, you might wanna try instead of using SetWindowLong on HHTaskBar, use it on MSSTARTMENU and when message WM_ACTIVATE received, don't pass it through and just launch the app. I wanted to do it, but I forgot. Plus I don't have any good replacement done yet.
This should work

When you say "WM soft button", do you mean the top left corner of the screen (WM6.5)? If so, I don't want to do that because I have Ariel Battery there. Thanks for the tip though.
