problem making shortcut with dashconfig JOGGR - HTC Excalibur

Quick question, i tried to make a .lnk of deepfish in my storage card and remap the Tzone button...it doesnt work....i tried different paths:
\storage card\program files\deepfish\deepfish.lnk
this doesnt work
even if i put in the root like \deepfish.lnk
...doesnt work and gives me an error...what im doing wrong here?
btw im having wm6 and the link does work when i click it with explorer if that helps.
i came so far as:
Remapping Keys and Text Input
How To Edit the Keyboard Link
Download http://vieka.com/wordpad.htm Vieka WordPad.
Sync your phone to your PC.
Run CE Notepad on your computer and open any of the following files:
T-Zones Button: "\Windows\Short_IE.lnk"
***Second Method if you have Total Commander, this can be done on the Dash directly.
Navigate to \Windows\Short_IE.lnk
Edit it (to one of the suggestions below for instance), save and reboot.
Recommended Remaps
CommManager: 36#"\windows\CommManager.exe"
Task Manager: 19#\Windows\IA_Task_Manager.exe?:TaskManagerApp
Internet Explorer: 36#"\windows\iexplore.exe"
i dont get the numbers b4 the links.....

Why are you using .lnk? Shouldn't it be .exe if you are using it from your directory and not from Windows Start Menu? Try this exactly as I type it.
36#"Storage Card\Program Files\Deepfish\deepfish.exe"
in your DashConfig. You must use the number 36# because it assigns the hotkey button; in this case the T-Zone button. I believe 19# would be the Mail hotkey. I hope it helps.

The path should have a forward slash before Storage Card\Program Files\Deepfish\deepfish.exe.
I was wondering why he was trying to call up the program via shortcut.

This is why:

According to the link of the tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281289
'Here is a utility I wrote that will let you change almost all of the JOGGR settings on the phone. It will also let you change the apps that launch when you press the Camera key and the T-Zones key. The app shortcuts must be in the shortcut file format because I didn't know enough about the Windows CE LNK format to simply let you pick an EXE.'
Guess u guys r right and he didnt update the link.
thanks anyway for the help and quick response

a few issues with wm6.1

i installed the kavana 6.1, and i have to say it works great, but there are a few quirks that are making me mad and maybe some of you guys have a fix for them:
gmail imap:
i did the [email protected] (or whatever you want as your domain) trick, and then going back to chnage it back to gmail, that works. but th ename of my mailbox is gmool.com and i cannot change it at all through account settings. registry hack?
i have a t-mobile dash, so pressing and holding the J button, or using alt-J should give me an @, but it gives me the GB pound sign, the & sign gives me the @. keyboard remap? reg hack?
other than that, it works great.

You can fix the keyboard crap by going in to resco explorer, opening program files, finding et9 and changing the icons in your notepad(your j,k,l,m will be all messed up as well)... or you can over write with this file...

Take the file above and drop it in the windows directory of your phone and overwrite the old one. That will fix your characters.
My device won't let me overwrite the eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt file. I think that's because it's burned into the firmware. I kinda expected this when you guys said to overwrite the file in the \windows folder. How do I update the file to get the correct keyboard mapping?
Also, it appears the 0409 file has the correct mapping. It's the 0408 file that's wrong. I tried updating that file on the device. Of course, I had the same problem saving the updated 0408 because I couldn't write it into the firmware.
resco explorer should allow the overwrite.....
OK, I got it. Another message in this thread said to update the file in the \windows folder. I updated the file in \program files\et9 and I was fine. Thanks for the help.

add a shorcut

i have a program installed on my phone but the run file for it is in the phones files and dosnt appear on the other programs tab where the like of titter and IE are
is there any way of adding it to this so i can set it a icon the shorcut page
thanks for any help
Easiest way is to install Total Commander (file explorer program, google it) which has a create shortcut option. Then save the shortcut under Windows/Start Menu/Programs

you can do it using the normal file explorer, just copy what u want to link to and then go to the directory mentioned and choose paste shortcut
i want tothe icon to appear in the programs when i click add to add a shortcut tab in windows so where do i need to copy the file to?
i got to the exe and copied it to to windows/ start menu and it appears there and allows me to add it as a shortcut but when i try to run it it s not enough memery on the device, yet when i run it on the device from ist normally location it runs no problem
any advice would be great
thanks
I think you need to paste a shortcut rather than the exe itself
instead of choosing paste choose the option below called paste shortcut
your right the shortcut worked a treat thanks

HTC Touch Pro 2

Dear XDA Forum visitors,
i got the TP2 yesterday. Now i have an important program on my memory sd card. I want to create a fast way in the menu "start" to go to the program.
Instead of going to the "verkenner" (discoverer?!?) and then go to the right place on the sd-card. I hope there is a faster way to go to the program, but i dont know how.
plz help!
Go to the verkenner , look up your program then tip and hold the file until the context menu appears. Select Copy. Then goto \Windows\StartMenu (the folder will probably labeled different in your locale), tip and hold on an empty space and select "Insert Shortcut" (will again be labeled differently for your locale). This will place a shortcut to your application into the start menu. Then you can select it with Start -> All and you can of course assign it to one of the shortcut buttons.
you can also make a lnk file but that wont be as fast unless you already know how to make one

tried this to create a short cut for my storage card and get an error message
either not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cant be found
how can i get around this
thanks for any help
I have the same problem
I have tested it on two differnet devices.
Even if I create a shortcut to a blank folder I get a certificate error.
Any help would be appreciated.
Shaya
It can be that the program is uncertified or has a bad certificate. In stock rom's those apps don't work. In the coocked one's they mostly do.

Let us know if this solved the problem
I have not tried your fix as I have not yet done a backup.
I do not think this will solve the problem as when i switch to the original WM start menu the shortcut works. So it is something to do with touchFlo.
Just to explain you can recreate the problem yourself.
1. Create a blank folder on your SD card.
2. Copy and paste a shortcut to this folder in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
If you try and run this from the touchFlo programs screen you get a certificate error, if you switch to WM start menu it works fine.
to switch to WM start menu edit the registry as seen in Cabs,Tips,Tweaks etc
HKLM\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu
EnableManilaStartMenu =
1(orginal TF3D startmenu) / 0(old WM startmenu)

DRMClient (!). Download, copy .zip contents to \Windows\ manually (using Resco Explorer, ...), apply *.regs.
Thanks to NighPlayer32
DRMClient is MUST-HAVE!
You miss drm and releted reg key.
Also I have this problem, becouse I don't have a windows pc, so I can't use ceregedit to import the key.
If someone knows another way to import this key, let me know.
save the regkey file in unicode format, then import with total commander, thats what i did
Thanks, it works.
I set the file as unicode utf-16 and resco import the key.
However under this rom I can't get slideview working...
please help. i also have the same problem... how do i fix my slideview? i really need it because it is the default image viewer.

[Q] Creating an Icon

Hi,
I have some programs, which after the installation, didn't create a shortcut icon.
Like iGo Primo for example.
I wonder if anyone knows a program or a way to create a shortcut in order to be able to put it on the manila shortcuts?
Thanks.
With file explorer, find .exe file, tap and hold, choose "Copy", go to:
Windows\Start menu\Programs
press Menu-Editing-Paste shortcut.
i'm also interested in Primo shortcut,there is not any other way,just copting the .exe in start menu?i tried with sktools but no luck..
You must make "Copy-Paste shortcut", not "Copy-Paste".
You can use File explorer or Resco explorer.

Hi,
I have Tom Photon ROM and from some reason I cannot make quick link to the "Games" folder.
I tried to do it the same way.. Copy a shortcut to "windows/start menu/programs"
but it didn't work..
Any ideas?
thanks.
Use path:
Windows\Start menu\Games
or create a folder named "Games" in
Windows\Start menu\Programs
have this folder, but it doesn't appear on the shortcuts options on the quick link.
I get this message:
"the file 'Games' cannot be opened. Either it is not
signed with trusted certificate, or one of its components
cannot be found. if the problem persists, try to reinstalling
or restoring this file"
I can't understand if you try to make a shortcut for an app or for a folder.
The folder appeared there already.
I tried also to do a shortcut.
The message I got was for the shortcut.
I cannot link to the folder.
Try to use the shortcut of the game you want.
I already had the "Games" folder.
and I created the shorcut to the folder.
When I try to use the shortcut in the quick links, I get the message above.
Thanks.
I think that you have to use the shortcut of each game, not the folder's one.
Well..
Now that we have 16 shcts, I can afford it..
Thanks any way..
New project!
I want a wifi quick link (for the shcts).
Does anyone know a program that makes this shortcut?
Thanks.
