Restoring "Wireless" on Today Screen

Appologies if this has already been covered, I had a look around and couldn't find anything though.
As anyone who's installed the new I-Mate ROM and Extended ROM will be aware. The extended ROM removes the rather nice "Wireless" information panel from the Today Screen.
I have managed to restore it on my device, and have posted the reg file for anyone else who misses this addition.

can this be used on the o2 rom, if not can sum1 post a cab for the app? this wee program sounds interesting
thanks1

Try placing this dll into your Windows directory, then run the reg file.
No promises though.

didnt work, i had that dll aswell, nothing messed up so i assume they wer the same, i want to get this cos it looks dead handy

It worked here.
1. download the dll and place it in \windows\ dir.
2. run the reg file from MDA.
3. go to settings => today => items. en check wireless en press OK.
the item will appear on your today screen. thnx for the tip.

I tried the above mentioned Solution without success.
It seems to be not possible on my Qtek 9000.
Maybe my netui.dll is the wrong one. The file size is 137.23KB
Could someone please be so kind and attach the working "netui.dll" here.
The zip File, 3 posts before, contains netui.dll with 0 Byte.
Thanks

how to uninstall it ???

these files are the good ones. the dll file is 0 Bytes, but working here. first past the dll and AFTER that run the reg file.

ok it doesnt work, copy the reg and the dll in one file, thanks

ok it doesnt work, copy the reg and the dll in one file, thanks

ok ive been looking at this dll, or actually i cant, wen u extract the file it is extracted, however it is not available at all, as in it does not show up, not even as a hidden file, i have no security setting regarding the extraction of zip files or any other compressed file, the funny thing is wen i go to extract it again in the same place as before it asks to replace the file, i dont know wat the craic is with this, could u please modify ur attributes of the file from not being hidden or read only just to be safe and upload it again please
thanks

Everybody should have the DLL in win dir, since it's not used only for the wireless app. Just have a look enambling the "show all files" option in explorer.

Observations with ROM 1.20.32 WWE
OK my observations are that
netui.dll is in the ROM and does not show in Pocket File Explorer at all, not even when set to "Show all"
If you use Resco Explorer 5.15 you can find if
netui.dll 140K 10/26/2005
It is a Read-only, Hidden, System, ROM file
Adding the registry settings does not enable the today pluggin.

I just tested this on my Wizard (K-JAM) and it works a treat.
The dll was part of the i-mate ROM already so once the registry keys had been added, the plugin enabled immediately (no soft-reset required).
Thanks guys
Cheers,
Chris

Agreed. I also tested this registry change with my T-mobile A2DP rom and with no luck.
The registry add the selection under setting / today / item but when you select and it doesnt show on the today screen.
It may only work with 1.30 ROM.

Start Menu Customisation

Hi all,
I've built a .dll file with icons for customising the programs folder of the start menu. I've attached this file with an example of how it can be used in a .zip archive.
For those not used to working with shortcuts (.ink) and/or .dll files instructions are as follows:
1) Unpack "Start Menu.zip" to a folder of your choice on your computer.
2) Copy "Start Menu.dll" to "\Windows\" on your device, using Active Sync.
3) Again using active sync go to "\Windows\Start Menu\" on your device.
4) Back up your programs folder by copying the folder entitled "Programs" and pasting it to a folder of your choice on your computer.
5) Open the Programs folder on you device using ActiveSync.
6) Open each program group folder here (e.g. "Games") in turn, cutting the program shortcuts (e.g Notes.lnk) out of the folders into the main "Programs" folder on the device then delete the folder.
(N.B. You should not cut any shortcuts called "ICON.lnk" out of the individual program group folders. These will be in "Office Mobile" and "Games" folders, and possibly some others, which display their own icon already.)
7) Open the "Programs" folder that you extracted from the "Start Menu.zip" archive.
8) Select all the folders present and copy them to the Programs folder (\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\) on your phone, using ActiveSync.
9) Copy your program shortcuts into the program group folders as required.
To undo simply delete the entire contents of "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\" and then copy the contents of the folder that you copied over from your phone in step 4) above.
Have fun!

screenshot please thank you

Thanks for posting, works a treat. Any chance of a Microsoft folder icon?
Haven,t time to finish it all now but will post screen shots when i have time. Thanks again.

Hi,
thanks for this, I was trying to do the same but got stuck at the links creation.
What do you use to create the .link files?
I have found a little .vbs script that creates .lnk files on my desktop but always appends "C:\" to the path I define so I can not use them on the device.
many thanks for your answer.

bump!
Are you still developing on this customisation? Are you able to provide a cab file? ... having some trouble with access permissions when moving the files as described in step 6-8

Hi jleung87
You need to use a program called Total Commander. It's free, search for it.

Hi hpsmartz
Copy an existing link on your phone and paste it to a different location. Then rename the lnk file and edit it using a program called Total Commander. After this you can cut and paste it back into the desired location.

[CDMA][W/VGA] Jmz Provisioning -- Select your carrier on first boot

Jmz Provisioning
Select your carrier on first boot​
Finally, the release of the bug free Jmz Provisioning. Many things have changed since the first beta so please read the notes below carefully.​
Release Notes:
Leave app.dat file alone.
Leave the package the way it is
Registry Entries are as follows
CarrierCount is how many provisioning cabs you are using
Carrier1, Carrier2, and so on are the carriers you want listed
Headertext is what you want it to say at the top of the app
Carriers is a changing number so don’t worry about that one
Firstrun — 1=runcc reboots phone on first boot, 2=runcc does not reboot your phone on first boot
Sometimes the app hides so you have to look at task manager to bring it forward. Currently trying to fix this small issue
Cab names are Carrier1.cab, Carrier2.cab and so on to match the above reg entries.
.NET 3.5 is required.

Certainly looks great. Maybe you should include in title that it is for CDMA ROMs. Does Connection setup not work on CDMA?
I hope to see a lot more applications with the same graphic ui. Can you please remake every app that exists? Do you have any more that us GSM folks can use? Thanks for your contributions.

can you post the error report. The first couple lines should suffice. Also, did you change any of the cab names? that is hard coded.

An Unexpected error has occured in Jmz Provisioning.exe

well, how the program works is this. It puts that shortcut in startup. Then when you click an option in the program it deletes that shortcut so it doesn't run again on next boot. So for some reason it cannot delete that file in the startup folder. Ensure the lnk file is not read-only. Other than that I can't really know what is going on. But bottom line is that the lnk file cannot be deleted from the startup folder for some reason.

Hmmm... Its not read only. I'm not sure why it can't be deleted. I know i can delete it if i got into startup and delete it. Any ideas on a solution?

No it crashes once you hit the carrier.

[UTIL] REG/RGU Cleaner

Hi,
I've been looking for some app, that will take my .reg or .rgu file (dump of WM registry), specially for OEMDrivers rgu, which is over 300kB large, delete duplicated stuff, sort it etc.
That's why I created this app.
What can it do:
- Grabs your input file, goes through it, takes together all registry nodes, when you have some key twice or more times, it gets overwritten so you're sure it isn't anywhere else after that
- Put it back to new output file
- Can remove "padding" zeroes at dwords, like you have "something"=dword:0000001 -- it removes the first zeros. They are not needed there and it is way readable IMHO (maybe not for everybody, so I made it as checkbox)

}
It made from OEMDrivers RGU of size 313kB new one with only 270kB! With human readable lines
With version 1.7 I fixed bug, that it got saved as ANSI rather UNICODE (thanks for others noticing that), thus having 50% of file size compared to supposed size. But Unicode is the right way to save that, sorry guys! (Platformrebuilder can use both, but OSBuilder maybe not? Well this is the better way).
Also, with 1.7, there's added option to run it from command line like rgucleaner.exe <sourcefile> <targetfile> and it _should_ close itself, but I'm not sure, I can't test it now. It was done as request
Version 1.8 update -- fixed "="="something" line in Mango beta for HD2. (thanks tslany for reporting). Plus now any problem with parsing line when it fails parsing even before checking if it is correct is now catched too rather crashing and reports the problematic line.

REALLY GREAT THING!!! I'd been looking for such soft )

Wait till I get back, I got updated version, I forgot to include mui_sz registry value kind.

Promising tool...thanks bro...

OK, version 1.2 UP on first post!

great tool bro .......i dont know what are the entries it delete but my rgu changed from 138 ko to 86 ko and i seems my touchflo becames very fast after flashing
thanks once again for this

It doesn't delete anything, but:
1. loads into "virtual registry" as if it was in real registry
2. overwrites stuff that are twice etc (same name in each subkey) -- here gets lost most of the stuff, since many lines are in it sometimes more than one time*
3. and dumps from the "virtual registry"
And yes, for some unknown reason, whole system feels faster. But that's just some kind of psychics LOL.
*EXAMPLE:
[HKLM\something]
"foo"=dword:0000001
"bar"="hujah"
"woohoo"=mui_sz:"phcanoverbmp.dll,#32"
[HKLM\something]
"bar"="newone"
will merge into
[HKLM\something]
"foo"=dword:1
"bar"="newone"
"woohoo"=mui_sz:"phcanoverbmp.dll,#32"
just as in real registry or when going in prb would happen.

Nice work !!!
Thank you

Thanks for this great tool!

Hi OndraSter!
This is a great tool! And too [email protected]#n fast!!! Nice Work again
I was trying to make something like this for cli usage, but failed miserably! lol
So here I am, suggesting you to add a cmd line usage.
Something like :
Code:
RegCleanup.exe -IMGFS -XIP
that could be used while dumping a rom so all the registry files from imgfs and xip would get cleaned up!
Just a suggestion...
Anyway, thanks for all your work!
Regards!

Hi kokotas,
You mean like go through all packages and clean their registry files?
I think it is possible, Ill look on it when I get some time

Hello,
OndraSter thank you for this handy utility. I'm having a problem with the RGU attached. We hope you find its origin.
By.

Fixed, nasty bug
It was reading line 844
"DialSuffix"=";"
and everything after ; was marked as comment and didnt check if it isnt in " actually.
Should be working now, it parsed it fine (Version 1.3)

Thank you very much

Tested it with the driver's .rgu and it is a very nice tool - cleaner and better readable registry files - nice

I'm having a problem with the RGU attached v1.3

Yay your RGU was devil's made
Never seen (not sure if they are actually supported!) comments in rgu like
/* something */
or lines with just ========================
So I added checkbox "inform on incompatible lines" which, when checked, will popup lines it failed to load
Also I fixed the
"something"=-
lines, which were supposed to get deleted (but they didnt in previous versions)
1.4 up!

Thank you for your program!
Now everything works perfectly

How to use this program? Can guide me along? Thanks...

The smile means that you are just joking?
Just click on Input and select input file (the one that will be parsed)
Then click on Output and select output file (there it will be saved)
and click on GO

Hi, this is my newest program: ThisPCFolder
With this tool you can customize your “Computer” (Windows 8 and backwards) or “this pc” (in Windows 8.1) folder
You can’t add your customized folder (next release), but you can select for 12 System folder
In Windows 8.1 you can remove the 6 folders that appears after installation
It functions on every Windows, but some links will not function
Link to my website: "ThisPCFolder – Customize and choose folders that appear in Computer or This PC folder"
Direct download
This version: 1.0 4/7/2013

I know it's BETA version. Idea is great. But as long as a user-guide doesn't exist, this prog is totally unusable: it is not self-describing. Obviously no drag and drop operations possible, no file selection dialogs pop up, etcetera ... If I click "Add" in the background seems to open a DOS-box window, which immediately disappears. If I click "Remove" or "Run" an error message pops up ...
FYI: My laptop is running Vista HP SP3

1. Inbetween understood how ThisPCFolder works. This UI simply is nothing else than a comfortable folder object creator: If in form-element "Desktop" you select "Add" it simply creates in folder "Computer" and/or "This PC" a subfolder named "Desktop", if in form-element "Documents" you select "Add" it simply creates in folder "Computer" and/or "This PC" a subfolder named "Documents", and so on.
Technically spoken it creates subfolders (folder objects) using their shell class, as for example shell:::{B4BFCC3A-DB2C-424C-B029-7FE99A87C641} for folder "Desktop".
2. The only well working -> Add -> Run are ControlPanel (All items) , Network, RecycleBin, and Search
3. Some error message examples:
Desktop

That's because you're running Windows Vista, Witch don't have Documents, Pictures etc... "known folder" id, only Windows 8.1 have it (and the error appear)
You can't add files and folders in Computer or ThisPC folder by Drag&drop and you can't remove this system folders in Windows 8.1 (Which has this by default)
This tool allows user to do it

Of course these KnownFolderIDs also since Vista are present:

Great application, very useful on Windows 8.1. I would like to be able to my Libraries in either the "Folders" section or can you make it so "Libraries" shows up in ThisPC?
