Hi
Just upgraded to the WM6 O2 official UK rom and for the most part I like it.
However:
How can I change the Dial pad, and phone background from the O2 blue to the default WM6 colours, it clashes horribly at the moment.
I heard that if you close a program by holding down the [X] button, it would actually terminate the program and not minimise it, it isn't working, is it possible?
I had to merge all my contacts into my MSN contacts, which is fine, but this has meant they have all been removed from outlook, except the ones I dont have on MSN, can I get outlook to have both sets?
Sorry for the array of questions, these things have been bugging me!

To get the proper wm6 dialpad skin change in the registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"Enabled"=dword:0
And place this file (unzip to get png file) in \windows of your device to change grey background to blue o2 one. Softreset to get the changes.
Hi,
i installed B&B V4 today and it´s really great! Thanks to tom for this awesome work. Come over to germany and you´ll get some beer
macguffin provided me with the solution:
You can make contact manager work from any contact button (cube, soft keys, phone, anywhere that was previously the default app) by changing the following reg
HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\rai - MSCONTACTS
0 CONTACTS
1 "\windows\pocketcm.exe"

OLD POST:
There is just one thing I`m wondering. Pocket CM is a nice app but it´s not fully implemented to the system.
I´m looking for some Tricks or Infos how to use Pocket CM in all situations. I managed to change the contact button from the Today Screen to start it.
Code:
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Default = Contacts
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\pocketcm.exe"
Now i´m looking for the telephone and the settings for the touchflo cube.
Can somebody help me/us out?

Wow thats a fast replay!
If you are in the contact side of the cube and press the button for the contacts its allways opens the built in contact list, not Pocket CM.
Take a look in at the first picture, i mean the third button from the left in the lowest row.
And in the second picture i would like to change the contacts button in the lower left corner.

EDIT:
Jesus, its the perfect day! Thanks macguffin, its just great.
Works perfectly thanks for the solution. Now anyone working on pocketem - an email client replacement for M$ rubbish

THink that's because the 'contact' buttons are all taking you to the contact list but the photos and going one level down and taking you to the contact information.
Don't think you'll be able to change this.
PS like your avatar
does anyone know how to add pocketcm.exe to the "exclusive" list of x-button? if i understand that correctly, programs in that list are not closed (just hidden) when pressing x-button. but how can i add an item to that list?
EDIT: ok, i found it. for those who dont know:
- run the tool you want in exclusive list
- settings/system/x-button
- select "running" tab
- tab the program you want. it needs a short tab (that was my problem. never tried short tab, always long tab *sigh*)
- choose "Add Exclusive"
I modify this with Resco but can you help me, i want to return with the original contact application
My current settings :
HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\rai - MSCONTACTS
0 CONTACTS
1 "\windows\pocketcm.exe"
When I go into biotouch setting, I can only modify the 6 programs + media!
But I can't change the settings for the contacts.
I want my default contact list to open when I press contacts on the normal screen and my Pocket CM list when I press it in the cube.
Is this possible? How?
It seems that after doing the registry change to have pocketcm.exe as the defaut contact list, when you try to make a picture to associate it to a contact, the camera device won't initialize and the artemis bugs and starts running really slowly. Does anyone has the same problem ?
So, I thought I would come back to the original registry so I'd like the same information than Jack. What is originally instead of the red line in the registry ? (I changed it like previously mentioned to get pocketcm.exe as the defaut contact list but I can't remember what was written here before)
HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\rai - MSCONTACTS
0 CONTACTS
1 "\windows\pocketcm.exe"
Thx for your help and once again great job Tom!
the camera bug is in the original rom (i mean original B&B4 by tom). there is a thread already for this. no solution so far, but tom is looking into it.
edit: btw, i think the correct registry entry is
0 CONTACTS
1 :MSPOUTLOOK contacts
you can see how it's done in other registry keys like HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\rai - :MSCALENDAR
oh, I thought the camera bug previously mentioned was that you couldn't see the pictures after a picture was taken from the contact tab.So to me,even with the camera bug, you still can take a picture.
Mine is different : when i hit the litte camera icon in the 'associate a picture to your contact' menu, the camera won't open and the whole pda bugs. WHen I manage to close all applications in memory, afterwards it is impossible to open the camera from any menu, not even with the dedicated button on the side of the pda. The camera just won't initialize.
anyway, thx for the registry trick soardiac !

i have the same thing after freshly flashing B&B4. it was also this way in v4 beta. i guess camera application is just messed up. there are other things like GPS phoe or panorama photo that also dont work.
setting pocket cm as default changed nothing at all in my camera app. i am sorry if it did for you
oh, btw, this is the way i save pictures to contacts (even with all the bugs):
- make picture using "photo" mode and "M-resolution"
- after picture is made, click the preview button (magnifying glass symbol or whatever it should be)
- picture opens in preview. now click menu->save->save to contact
- done
works for me.
Afternoon,
I'm looking for a (preferably freeware) application that password protects SMS (and perhaps email) folders on the HD whilst using the TF3D interface.
I'm using Dutty's 1.8 ROM and like the TF3D interface (esp the calendar) so don't really want to go to the standard WM6.1 GUI, although I know there are programs that enable this feature if you choose to use this interface.
Is anyone able to offer any suggestions?
Thanks for the help.
No joy then!
have a look on this post...
don't know if it's what you want.

Ok
Thanks.
What i've done is removed the "SMS" and "Mail" tabs from TF3D
This means that you use the exact same SMS setup as if TF3d is disabled.
What would be good would be if it was possible to make the "SMS" tab link directly to the account selection page, meaning there was no message preview envelope, as even with Eye on Privacy installed, you can still read messages in TF3d, with a password prompt only occurring when you enter the windows messaging bit.
Hello,
I wrote a programm which allows someone to send SMS over CherrySMS (a online Service).
It even adds these SMS messages to the Sent Items (SMS) Folder.
But afterall it is not really well integrated into Manila & Windows Mobile.
I'm searching for a way to add a menu entry into the Manila Messages view (where you can see received messages) and the Threaded View that I can simply click on that and my application starts and can reply to that message.
By searching the web I just found a way to add menu extensions to PocketOutlook, but that's not enough for HTC/manila based phones.
So is there any good way to archieve that?
cool!
The manila tv player has a functionallity like this! i think you can stick to the implementation they used in their files...
Where do you actually see the sourcecode of manila tv? I just see a cab file and a description how to add channels to this application.
But afterall it's not such a bad idea to completly replace the SMS/message view in manila. It might be a start ... thank you
Does someone else know a way to add a menu entry to a manila based application? Maybe it is a xml-file, or a registry entry? Sorry I don't know very much about this whole Manila stuff (especially the manipulation of it).
I know custom tabs for Manila has been discussed many times before, including one for tasks. But my question is different - is there a way to add tasks on home tab? Like replacing the call history or calendar entries. That's the only thing I've always missed in Manila - seeing if I have any active/due tasks right after I unlock my screen.
None interested?!
I'm definitely interested! I have no idea how to do it but I would love to see it. I've thought about this many times.
Well, obviously it makes only two of us. It seems is either unwanted and/or impossible..
+1 pls.
Sorry I have no clue how to do this
Yup, +1 here, makes 4.......
I don't know of a possibility to add tasks, but you can use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=602221
You can place a today plugin, like TodayAgenda or some other Tasks app. to cover up for example the calendar part on the home screen. Or you can add it to the Operator tab.

This is actually pretty straight forward if you follow the steps correctly. This is the way I did it to put messaging on the home screen.
Install the 2D TodayPage cab
Stop TouchFlo (Start > Setting > Home > Items and unselect TouchFlo)
Soft reset (may not be necessary but better in my mind)
Run M2Dtp config from programs page
Press and hold the red area next to plugins lable
Select Tasks (or whichever you want)
Leave Window at Window_00
Set x=10 y=240 w=220 h=60
Choose M2D widget page (Home)
press apply
press menu
press OK
Start TouchFlo (Start > Setting > Home > Items and select TouchFlo)
Switch to another tab then back to home and it should be there.
NOTE: You may need to experiment with the X (Left) ,Y (Top),W (Width), and H (Height) but they should place your plugin right after the calendar
How about Sense2.5.1922
Yeah.. well, I am more interested in latest Manila 3D - Sense 2.1/2.5. Apologies for not specifying that. Adding it to the title.
I change the right soft-key of the Home tab in my Sense 2.1 to "Tasks"..
So, if I want to see my tasks, I just tap the right soft-key..
I would also really like to get Outlook Tasks incorporated into Sense!
As part of the 'home tab', the 'calendar tab' or as a separate 'tasks tab'; either, some or all are fine with me ;-)
It surprises me that Microsoft has downplayed Outlook Tasks in WinMo. In Outlook it is easily accessible and a really useful tool for 'appointments or To-Do's that are not strictly time-specific'. That at least is how I use tasks.
Therefore it is really annoying that you have to open a separate app (either MS' own or something like pTasks) to access them in WinMo.
To have Outlook Tasks show up in the calendar I have to use a full-blown program like Pocket Informant.
It's also strange to me that HTC has overlooked the incorporation of Outlook Tasks in their otherwise excellent Sense-UI!
I'm even surprised that the great programmers frequenting this fine forum seemingly does not think that Outlook Tasks is worth incorporating into Sense.
Apart from the ease of access that comes with incorporation into Sense it would also enhance the general 'user experience' to be able to access Outlook Tasks in the same UI that lets you access the other Outlook-functions like mail and calendar!
Hopefully someone will recognize this 'oversight' and remedy the situation soon ;o)
Does anybody know how to make Tasks beeing displayed on home tab? (the way appointments and other calendar entries are)
Shortcut to Tasks is not the way out - it would be perfect to have 'to do list' always on, under the clock

Hello!
It seems what you are using lua scripting in your mod? Can you create mod with tasks instead of appointments?
I'm not the only one who dreaming about such mod . There are many people using tasks without any appointments...
Best regards and sorry for my English.

Argg, I really need tasks on home page.
I'm about to remove Sense from my device and go back to WM today screen just because I can see tasks...
I agree to the best solution I found is installing pTask and make shortcut on the homescreen.
