Some questions for 6.1 - HTC Excalibur

Hi everybody
I'm quite new to the wonderful world of WM 6.1 and I have some (stupid) questions:
1. Is it possible to install the german t9 and keyboard layout (I'm currently running the latest English only ROM from Kavana)?
2. Is it possible to change the path for the pics that are displayed on the sliding panel homescreen "My Photos" to a location on the memory card instead of the RAM?
Thanks a lot for your input and thanks to Kavana for his hard and much appreciated work!

WM5 keyboard love. I HATE the WM6 keyboard. Can we switch back?

Can we "downgrade" to the WM5 on-screen keyboard layout? I dont like skins that waste room, I just want the good old fashion WM5 version I have used over the last 2 years back!
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Dan
*bump* thanks for any input....
Have I stumped this board?
The base Keyboard dll are pretty much the same in WM5 and WM6. If you don't like the skin used on your WM6, you can always cook a new rom from it and replace the keyboard related files - well that's basically the idea but on how to cook and what to replace a bit of research will have to be done of course
one can also just install the skin one wants and use that no building a full rom is required
Try this package, it includes the original white with black letters and alot of others. It should work with your cooked WM6 rom

I figured this out a while ago and forgot about this topic. I am replying to help any searches people may have.
Solved.
To change the keyboard layouts:
While in notes/messaging/email/etc (where you can write) press the arrow to the right of the keyboard. This will open up the menu.
Be sure thet "keyboard" has the dot to the right of it.
Choose "options"
On the first "Input Method" tab, simply choose "small keys".
This will add the numbers on the top row as well as a few other keys that are missing with the "large keys" option.
Hope this helps someone. Cheers,

Hello
A lot of people asked for the WM6.1 Smartphone Sliding Panel on touchscreen devices with WM6.1 Pro.
I found this

which is a Sliding Panel look app.

Lost Auto Punctuation / Dictionary Editing for AutoCorrection

I modified my VZW TP2 to give word suggestion and use the WM built in dictionary. I also installed Resco Keyboard and then uninstalled.
Now when I type and hit the space bar twice I don't have the "auto" period placement that I had when I first got the device.
Any ideas how to get it back?
Similiarly - anyone have any new news on modifying the built in WM dictionary for 6.1? I had a program that worked for 5.o but not for 6.0
Thanks

Increase icons in start menu

I am using WM6.1 ROM which is last updated by HTC.
By default I can add maximum 7 program shortcuts to the Windows Start menu.
Hence Blackstone screen is 800 pixels long there is extra space for 2 more shortcuts but windows mobile does not allow me to add more than 7. I use Resco Explorer to manually add shortcuts I want to the start menu.
Is there a registry tweak or something which will enable me to change this maximum number of allowable shortcuts in the start menu?
Thanks.
Hmm ... guess there is not an easy solution as nobody has replied.
I would really appreciate if any of more experienced guys out there would help me about this.
Thanks a million......
Nobody answered because I think no one understand what you mean.
Which start menu you are talking about?
If you have WM6.5 there is no limitation in number of icons
And if you are using WM6.1 use Rhodium base cooked ROM which you can have Manila's program tab instead of start menu
Sorry if my post is not clear in the beginning. I have edited my initial post and I hope now it is more clear.
I am trying to find a solution without changing ROM.
Thanks a lot
i fear you will have to use a 3rd party software . you might want to take a peek at wisbar lite
I have previously tried Wisbar Advance but I don't like it.
As it is only 2 extra icons I need to include I was wondering maybe it is possible with a registry tweak .
Thanks for the advice

List of running Apps in WM6.5

Dear Gurus,
I just upgraded my TP2 from WM6.1 to WM6.5 after this upgrade I am badly missing the List of running application option(A triangle icon on the extreme right corner of WM 6.1 ). It lists the applications so that I can toggle between apps.
I there a way I can have the same option in WM 6.5, Its really annoying to goto programs each time and select app while using multiple apps. I want to know a way other than adding those apps in Quick list.
your response is highly appreciated.
Cheers,
Soyunee
Use Dutty's Task Manager
Maybe PBar would be a nice option. I loved that app.
