Does anyone know how to remove the systray from the bottom of the screen?
I got the comm & battery icon removed but would like to remove the rest of the systray.
thanks
AFAIK, there is no way to actually remove the systray other than removing all the icons on it. So, if you have a program which is hard-coded to show an icon on the systray, then you might be SOL.
If I am wrong, and there is in fact a way to remove it, please someone tell me.
I already had all the icon remove from the systray, I a hoping to get rid of the systray all together so more desktop space are available for additional program icon.

I use pocketplus to put icons on the desktop of my pocketpc. what i would like to do is remove the system tray icons (i.e. bluetooth and wifi) and use them through wireless manager application. i dont mind if i remove the new menu as well and be able to open a new message document from a shortcut. i hope you understand what im trying to do.
this will make my desktop look a lot neater. also i use pocketplus to create icons on desktop, battery meter and backlight control, close applications. is there any other application out there that takes up less system memory cos i hate having to soft reset once a day. also how do you put this pocketpc in 'flight mode'
thanks
Hi,
I just upgraded to iLauncher 3.0 but the program also installed an icon on the system tray at the bottom of the screen, the one that also has the rotation icon etc. Now my problem is that I got rid of that tray a while ago to have more space on my today screen through the registry-hacks in the wiki, but I don't now how to get rid of this icon. If iLauncher 2.x also installed it, I managed to remove it, but I forgot how I would have done that . I've gone through all the iLauncher options, but I can't find an option for this. Does anyone know what I can change in the registry to hide this icon again?
All help would be appreciated. Thanks
Ng :?
on the lawer part of the today screen i have 7 small icons, i cant find the way to remove or change them. is there any way to do it?
Go into registry and delete the Launchentry which contains the value "TrayAp.exe" >>> HKLM\Init\Launch92
alternate, hardreset your device and break the automatically install. put the needed files manually to your mda ( except the unliked SP_Tray117_1100.CAB )

thanks
thanks alot bmod.
This is great (I've never used those icons and they take up space) but I also use photo Contacts Pro and this put's it's own little icon in there...so I can lose the O2, the battery status and the conection manager icon, but I can't get rid of the photocontacts icon.
so for me there's no point in changing this in the registry
infact I tried this and as I knew photo contacts put it's own icon in there (thought it might remove them all). Tried to reverse the registry change, but now all I have is the O2 icon, not the battery indicator or the connections manager icon...anyone know how to get them back??
Does anyone know where I can download and install the standard O2 apps that are installed as part of the WM5 customization after a hard reset?
I've just upgraded my Orbit to WM6 and am missing these as they were really useful. I'm not intrested in other apps as I know these O2 ones worked fine and didn't drain the battery etc etc.
The 3 I'm after are,
1) Running Apps for the Today screen
2) Battery Meter
3) Memory usage Meter
4) O2 task manager shortcut Icon
Thanks.
These will be the ones I'm after, all shown on this review just before half way down the page in the screen shots.

Meters allows you to show up to three level meters for Battery, Memory, and Storage card. Each meter can be tapped on to show; a plain bar, the bar with percentage, or bar with Mb free.
Running Apps displays a simple line of icons indicating which programs are currently running in the background, tapping the icon switches to that program.
Shortcuts allows for up to five shortcuts to be configured for launching, tapping on the icon launches the program.
Task Manager - this is activated via the 'O2 bubble' which resides in the bottom bar of the today screen. A single tap on it brings up a brushed metal pop-up which displays the running applications and an options menu. The 'X' next to the listed applications allows each application to be terminated manually when required. Options allows you to select which O2 Custom Today applets are usable on the Today screen, as well as allowing you to define the shortcuts for the Shortcut applet.
They are all in the 'Items' menu of the 'Today' setup in preferences. You need to turn on Meters, Profiles and Shortcuts.
Thanks for the reply and they woudl be if I was still running my O2 ROM and it had run the customization to install them after a hard reset but I've upgraded to BEBE's WM6 ROM which doesn't have any of the O2 utils loaded.
Anyone else on where I can get these? Would anyone with an O2 Orbit ROM be able to pull the customization CAB install files out of their ROM somehow for me?
I just sent you a PM. I can email them to you.

Can you upload these files somewhere?
I just checked the ftp site and they are already there...

Big thanks to Mark for that and the email. All loaded on and the meters runnings apps and O2 bubble task manager are all there and I'm almost back to where I was on WM5..
However SPB Time fails to wake up the phone from a screen saver locked state with sound, sure it'll flash up the screen with snooze or dismiss red and green buttons but no sound errm kinda makes it useless as an Alarm Clock and as I'm sure all the rest of you out there do I really rely on my phone as an Alarm.. I've been late 2 days in a row now because of this, no joke so.. errm kinda critical for me to get fixed..
Any ideas people. I've even un installed the paid for version I had and installed the latest version (trial) from their site

Hello,
At the risk of sounding stupid, I've just downloaded the zip file for the extended roms. I've unzipped it and gathered from the config file that I should place the cab files in specific locations... My question is, is there a (semi)automatic way of installing it? If not, should I follow the paths found in the config file? Also, there are a few files missing, ie the bmp files, do I need them? Lastly, what about the config.txt the file... where is that to be placed?
Sorry for the barrage of questions Noob here, just want to make sure I understand this the right way!
Thanks for all the help!

PS. 1st post, great site btw!!
hi there i just wanted to know how to add extra options t the bottom of the screen on the p3300 - i upgraded to touch 2.0
its a mda compact 3 nd when came with t-mobile branding/software had little icons at the bottom of the phone like bluetooth, comm manager, battery etc etc, like shortcuts. any idea how to do this?
Try going into Start / Programs / Accessories / TrayLaunch this will let you add shortcuts to the bottom tray at the bottom (you will need to know the exact filename and path to where the programs are installed because it doesnt give you the option to browse for the program)
oh great thanks! but how do i find out the exact file names? i heard it was not safe to launch the tray launcher with touch 2.1 upgrade?
is there some sort of manual or something i can find? tried the net no joy
You can upgrade battery status to latest version 1.04 build 239 and traylaunch is now bug free
oh gret thanks!
