is there any good program which allows you to quickly close running programs without having to go into settings?
running programs consume battery life.
SPB Pocket Plus 2.2 it is doing a good job for me :wink:

thanks primoz.
where can i download it from and is it free?
will it work on my mda III?
thanks again
Try here ... but unfortunately is not free :roll:

I use a piece of software called PocketNav. All this does is add a lightning bolt Icon to the top right hand side of the screen alongside the normal close and ok buttons. This allows you to click it and a drop down box appears with all running apps listed. From here you can close individual apps or close all apps.
I've attached it below, all you need do is copy it to your PocketPC somewhere (like program files\Pocketnav\), and place a shortcut to this in your startup folder (\windows\startup\) so it starts after Resets.
Hope this helps,

RetiBar
try this software http://www.mail-mobile.it/download.htm
it's free
u can also try this good freeware : "my tools" by micro cheng
RetiBar
Hi, how do I install RetiBar? It's a CAB file with two files in it (0RetiBar.000 and RETIIT~1.001).
Thx
Pocketnav is free and a brilliant simple unobtrusice piece of software that serves its purpose superbly.

Have to agree, but I can't use it anymore. I use maimaich's (I am sure I mispellt his name) contacts program and like the side effect that I can use the Red Exit key to close programs as well, this does not work with most of the task closing programs except "my tools" (so far).
Wish I knew why, because I much prefer PocketNav.
PocketNav is excellent!!! I've yet to find a better program.

Thanks, MiTULSKY, just tried RetiBar and it works great for closing programs and does not affect Maimaich's contacts program using the End key as a close for all other programs. Only wish it I could make it smaller, but it does the trick.
RetiBar
No dude! RetiBar came from lorenzo_bisi. I'm sure it will work great, BUT I STILL CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO INSTALL IT!

DiStefano's Cab Collection
3 Button HTC Today
Refering to HTC Today, instead of the 5 or 6 button, is there any 3-button HTC Today like the original from HTC Touch? Couldn't seem to locate/search it anyway
rgds
You can find the 3 buttons version at:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/s.php?querywords=HTC+Home
I too like the HTC 3 buttons version.
Thanks bchau...
Thanks for the posts guys. Downloaded this and will give it a try on my 8525.
Glad you posted the link for the 3 buttons version! I've been looking for that one.
not working with Schap's 3.54b, if installed it will appear like the normal 5 buttons HTC home plugin..anyone knows why?

I guess its because Shap allready enchached the HTC Home version in his rom. The plugin is allready cooked in the rom. So if you want to install a new one, you will have to put the files out of "read-only" mode so you can overwrite them. Sounds complicated, but in fact it's very logic. Search for a HTC Home folder
Thank you DiStefano!!
But I still can't find the folder which are you talking about..and I've read somewhere that in the Schap's 3.54b there isn't any folder of the HTC Home Plugin..and another point, the file that I've just downloaded it's a .cab self-installing..where I can get single files?
if i remember correctly schap said his plugin was made to 5 buttons but in registry u can edit it back into 6. let me get into schaps rom ill edit this post in a few min with a solution.
But I'm talking about 3 buttons..not five or six..just like the HTC Home Plugin of the Touch/Elf.. I think it's nicer and smarter..less buttons more fun..
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCHome]
"TabSetting"="1,2,3,4,5"
is ur original reg entry. to get it to 3 do 1,2,3 to get to 6 do 1,2,3,4,5,6. in other edit that registry to whatever u like it to be.
Love you man!!However stay online..I try a second and report a feed!!
Man.. ..because if i edit the registry nothing changes..still 6 buttons..
EDIT: IT WORKS!! JUS DOESN'T WORKS WITH THE HTC KAISER HOME PLUGIN (THE ONE TRANSPARENT)
MAN YOU'RE GREAT!!
just..any idea how to change the three buttons? I mean..I don't think that the contact button is useful for me..how do I can swap it with the button which allows to select faster the applications?
in shap's 1.54b rom you've to launch advanced configurator (built-in in attrezzi sistema )
there you'll find the "HOME" tab.
check only what you need and choose the position on the home plugin
Bye J
I've just writed in the HKEY_Local Machine_Software_Htc_Home ecc.. not 1,2,3 but 1,3,4 (I was guessing that 4 was associated to the application launcher) and it works perfectly!!
told u it was a reg entry glad to hear it worked
thank you so muuch pawel..did you know if this could be done also in the htc kaiser home plugin? and..about the htc home plugin of schap's 3.54b..how do i install the pack of new icons posted somewhere here?
I found the CAB in another thread. There were warnings about Installation, another Guy had to do a Hardreset to get his Device booting.
I tried out and on my O2 XDA Cosmo with WM6 it works fine.
I think the Device becomes slower but I like the Homescreen.
Try it on your own risk!!!!!!!!
Thanks.. Its neat..
do u know if their is a htc home customizer for this...i can only find for ppc that does not work on the excalibur
nice theme.. but the favorite people plugin doesnt work with my BJ2 WM6
@gsportz156
Yes, I also tried the HHC App and the installation corrupted. I don´t know another tool.
@ipwoof
You can´t choose the Persons. When you choose "favorite People" and switch the Middle Button (I don´t know the name ), then -on my device- a new window opens with the saved numbers.
This is nice home screen, is there any way to add one more tab for launcher and different icons..
thanks in advance
This is a nice screen, however, it seems to slow my phone down a lot and I am running the Rogers ROM with it...
I can't get the contacts shortcut to work. When I select it the 'config' screen comes up and disappears a second later not allowing me to put contacts in the shortcut. Any ideas out there.

Worked fine on my phone with the Rogers Rom. Looks nice but would look better if it had vista aero effects. Free memory does drop from 22MB to 15 MB on the Rogers Rom.

Did that. I had the same problem. Every time you install something else on it, it goes right back to acting like that. I dunno If i like it anymore.
Hmm, I seem to be having a problem aswell....everything installs fine, but once I restart my phone...it tries to load at startup and comes up with the message-"Keyboard Hook failed. Program closed" or something along those lines...any ideas guys?

Try using this version. It doesn't seem to have the issue with the contacs and takes up less memory.

Facade is not required. All you need to do is install the Cab file.
just try the new attached cab, works great...
Tried it, nice but I wanted access to the MRU so here is what I came up with.
Just extract to your SD card and it will appear in the Home Screen Layouts.
This is the HTC Home replacing the Appointments with MRU.
See the attached screenshot.
I downloaded HTC Home from here:
http://www.modaco.com/content-page/...or-S710-E650-as-on-S730-/page/60/#entry866803
the full package (i need appointments) and works great. Just scroll it down to see the MRU!
Hello.
Firts of all sorry for my bad english.
I know that there is enough applications like this, but I've decided to write my own application, as a beginning for learn embeded C++ and mobile devices development. So, because this is my first app. in such domain, please don't punch me .
May be "power manager" sounds hard, this app. do exactly the same as per example psShotXP, namely:
- turn off the screen of Your device
- put the device in suspended mode
- soft reset the device
- turn off the device (HTC devs.).
- turn on/off wifi
- turn on/off phone module
- turn on/off bluetooth (make discoverable/invisible)
- switch phone bands Auto-2G-3G
You also can create 4 shortcuts to the program with parameters:
0 - turn off the screen of Your device
1 - put the device in suspended mode
2 - soft reset the device
3 - turn off the device.
4 - turn on/off phone module
5 - turn on/off wifi
6 - turn on/off bluetooth
You can change the images of backrounds button separator and buttons, they will be located in "Images" folder after install. With one restriction: now the buttons are black, so if you change the back of main program, consider this ...
Remarks: To close the main window you must tap anywhere outside the buttons or in space between buttons. Also to close additional windows tap the Close button or empty space of window.
P.S.
Discoverable/invisible mode for bluetooth is working on Microsoft stacks, on broadcom is to be developped (works just on/off bluetooth)
P.S. Supported screen resolutions: QVGA (240x320), Square (240x240), SquareQVGA (320x320), VGA(480x640), Square VGA (480x480), WVGA (480x800)
Regards.
Looks nice - good effort mate
Hi
Works fine on Touch Diamond 2. Thanks
I am myself a developer and I was looking for a way to shut down the device from a shortcut. With the keyword "PowerOffWarning" from you I finally found the solution.
s.virtan said:
Hello.
About "turn off". I've tested these only on my Touch HD, and i've used the functionality of this device owerOffWarning (when you long-press the power button). May be this will work on Diamond too, i do not have them...

Thanks for the software. One of the file name in shortcut folder seems mispelling "standbay" instead of "standby".

Hi there, just copy the createt Shortcut SV*.lnk from /Windows/Startmenu/etc... into /Windows and rename it into "Long_Power.lnk". And thats it. Simply but powerfull.
Greats Tom
Hmmm i didn't do that. I copied the program into the windows directory and changed the name to poweroffwarning.exe and i had to copy the images folder too
Cuts the cleartype font out using this

Hi.
By "PowerOffWarning" I want to say, that when You long-press the power button on device it seems that a program PowerOffWarning.exe (wich You can find in \wndows dri.) is launched, and You can see the message box "Power will be turned off ...".
This is not my discovery, this is a standard HTC feature ... and a found it here

Sorry, but ... why you are doing this ... You don't need to copy the program into windows, You can do this of course, but ... I think there is no need for ...
And about PowerOffWarning, I repeat that this is a HTC program, not mine, and if in \win. dir is no such file, the renaming of SVMPowerMgr to PowerOff will not help.

Hi s. virtan
I've the following problem and i hope you can help me:
Your App is running great, but when i click on "turn off device" the screen stays on. For a half second the screen is black an returns to powermgr-menu.
Any idea what's the problem?
Ralfi.
Hi Virtan,
I have installed your software, but found the when I pressed and hold the power button for my Diamond 2, instead of showing the power off warning, your menu pop out. And if I uninstall your program, I cannot power off my device, because the program is looking for the SVM Power Mgr.exe.

If yes, the You should remove[rename] the Long_Power.lnk from \windows dir.
Sound strange Your situation, because the cab does nothing else, than copy the Svm Power Mgr to the program files, and a shortcut to program in \windows\start menu\programs, that's all, there is no other locations ...

Been searching for this all weekend. Thanks
All seems to work on the Toshiba TG01, apart from power off, popup stating unsupported device.

DONE! . It's attached.
Installation goes without any problems (just needed to uninstall bb connect software). BB Application Suite starts but after splash screen I got only white screen and then program probably terminates itself (or wm does it) as I see only today screen (TouchFLO is switched off while BB Application Suite starts).
I have Energy.BLACKSTONE.21891.Leo_MaxManila_07.Feb.2010 flashed on my Touch HD and registry tweek - AKU changed to .1.6.0). maybe the WM build could be a problem.
Please share your experience with BB Application Suite on BlackStone I realy am keen on the bb service.

After hard reset and installation BAS started to work on Energy.BLACKSTONE.21891.Leo_MaxManila_07.Feb.2010.
I have got a PIN (the same as at the BB connect) however was not able even to try enterprise activation as the soft keyboard was not available anywhere there. Or my phone is still not bugs free or it had meant to be this way as Touch Pro (Raphael) has hardware keyboard.
Anyhow I was to flash it to something else tomorrow so I will give it another try.

I got my pin too with BIS service but still stock with enterprise activation. I was thinking to get BES but after I saw the keyboard I changed my mind or If someone haked the app to change the keyboard.
sorry
sorry to sound like an idiot but, ive downloaded the file that was attached...how do i install the appliciation suite?
could this be done for hd mini
Where is the dot "." in soft keyboard?
Thanks for your advices.
Managed to get up to the point of actibation, soft keyboard appeared by long press for each character.
To enter my email I need a dot "." for my email-name and the ".com" ending. There is a character that appears like this, but sits on the middle between characters not on the ground. Any ideas?
Thnx

Hi all,
Ive read all the posts from over 50 sites (XDA and others) and can still not get the BAS to work on my HTC HD2 Leo.
Ive got it to install, Both BBC and BAS.
I have a BES account with my company.
I can get to the Register screen and nothing happens, says message sent but i can go no further.
Ive tried the hack for Raphael, done all the other reg tweeks.
Can someone please provide a simple answer for geting BAS to run, Register, do enterprise activation, sync with my company email, allow internet use etc.
I hate the blackberry they use, dont know why they use it.
I would very much love for someone to provide a solution, i only have 1 week left on my valid activation code. I need my HD2.
Please, please help.
ive spent countless hours and i am actually loosing sleep over the issue.
Thanks
Thanks for the software
