multi instances of pocket IE / tabbed browsing

looking for any freeware / hacks that can enable me to run multiple instances of pocket IE or enable tab browsing

Sorry - can't think of a free app at the moment but SBS Pocket Plus does it very nicely as well as:
1) File Explorer - ZIP Support, File Properties and "Folder Up..."
2) Taskbar Battery Indicator
3) Task manager and configurable close button (That actually works!)
4) Today Plug-In for quick links and other utils
5) Pocket IE tweaks such as open link in new window, full screen support, saving pages .........
See this link for details.

Resco Plugin with Comm Manager / HTC Action (attached)

Guys,
Problem 1: HTC Action & Resco Plug-in
I want to add the HTC Action icon to the Resco plug-in on my home screen. The problem is the attached file puts a default icon shortcut only in programs? Is there an update to the HTC Action cab that includes a proper icon? I am not sure who's this CAB is, but I tried version 1.0 from elsewhere and that one does not even give a shortcut in programs!
Problem 2: Comm Manager & Resco Plug-in
I want to add the Comm Manager icon to the Resco plug-in on my home screen. The problem is in the config for adding applications it does not list Comm Manager as presumably it only lists the files in programs. Is there a way we can add the shortcut to programs and hence I can add to the plug-in?
Many thanks
Hawk

hi
have u tried to creat shortcut by using GSfinder or Resco explorer?
both of them can send a shortcut into the program folder.

ok on Comm Manager where is the app and how can I do that.
On HTC Action it needs an icon compiled with it!

Opera Mini

Hello,
I'm unsing Shaps Rom 4.30 WWE and I would like to use Opera Mini as my default browser and open it with a hardware button.
Is there any chance to get this to work?
I have no idea how I can start a programm in java manager without starting first the java manager.
If not a hardware button, is there the possibility to make an entry in the start menu for opera mini?
Thanks for help

was wondering the same thing...would like to initiate Opera Mini with one click of the top right 'IE' button as well. i just have it mapped to open Java first.

to allow an icon to show up in "Buttons", just add a link to the exe in the folder /Windows/AppButtons. Then you should be able to select it under settings and launch the app.
If not it's easy enough to create a cab to change the registry and remap the button that way - but you need to know the physical path of the exe.

might be a solution for ya
i mapped opera mini to directly open with my IE hardware button by using total commander, go into \windows\appbuttons then on internet explorer select properties then fully uncheck "read only" and "system" then go to the shortcut tab at the top and replace the path that would previously open internet explorer to the following "\windows\jeodek.exe" -run s1_ then click ok then recheck the "read only" and "system" boxes, and it clicking the IE hardkey will now open opera mini directly, i read this somewhere i dont recall where but i am not taking credit for it in anyway, just relaying what worked for me

Like wise, if you're using Esmertec JBed, you can make an Opera.lnk file with the following in it:
Code:
244#\Windows\jbed.exe -run s0_
And this will create a shortcut that will run Opera Mini directly (assuming it was the first app you installed in JBed, otherwise you may have to adjust to s1_ or s2_ etc...)

Hi,
I am usin a Java intend (tao) instead of emertec which use a different exe.
My path:
27#"\Windows\jmm.exe" -run s0_
But Shortcut only opens Java manager, have to select Operamini icon manualy
Can´t find direct shortcut, pls. help

Found out. This shortcut is working:
68#"\Windows\jmm.exe" -r"Opera Mini","Opera Software ASA","Opera Mini "

Install and use these files to open Mini. You can link the button to open this mortscript also. I found these somewhere else and I don't remember. so don't give me any credit.
One of them gives a menu with Opera Mini or IE to open with. The other just opens mini.
you can also uninstall without problems too.

Well thanks for taking the time to look these up and to post them

Game help with Touch HD?

Hi I hope someone here can help me?
I have downloaded some games for my phone and have them saved on the storage card but how do I get them to appear in the list off the programs tab so I can play them? At the moment I can only get them to work through file explorer but its a bit of a faff!
Help please someone!

tap and hold on the game .exe ..select "send to shortcut to programs"it'll appear on ur programs list!

in the file explorer screen? if i tap and hold on a game I get 'cut, copy, rename, delete, send, beam file'?

You can add programs to the list using Diamond TF3D Config!

You need to add shortcuts to the programs from your sd card installation directory to the \windows\start menu folder.
Read here to find out how to make a shortcut:

V

OK I'm new to HTC and Windows Mobile etc and generally not very techy so bare with me please!
Do I really have to install another program just to move the games to the right place?
I don't know what Diamond TF3D is?
Vijay - thanks for the link but it is all a bit much for me I think - is there no simple way to just copy and paste it to the right place without needing a new explorer etc?

this is what i see when i tap and hold on the game .exe
the option might not be on the pop up menu that comes up after you tap and hold on the .exe .. u've to scroll down the menu.
btw.. what games have you installed on ur storage media!?

if i go to File explorer then Storage card I can see my games (java - not sure if this matters?) Bubble Bash, Date or Ditch, New York Nights, Solitaire and Sudoko - also have a barcode reader app that I can't get in the right place, assume I'm doing the same thing wrong!
If I click and hold on any of the games I get cut, copy, rename, delete, send and beam file. If I press menu (bottom right) whilst highlighting any of them I get Go To (with sub options My Documents, My Device, Folders and Open Path...), Refresh, Show All Files, Sort By, Send, Beam File, New Folder, Rename, Delete and Edit
Also how did you do the screen shot thats really cool and would prob help me to show you what I'm doing wrong!

Hi Finnbob.
You can get screenshots with several different apps, but I'd recommend this one...
http://www.mymobiler.com/
I'd recommend that regardless, as it's just a really useful application!
Incidentally, the screenshot that jtf420 showed us isn't the standard rom. That's not the menu that I get either, as I've only got the standard stock rom on my phone.
Using file explorer, navigate to...
\My Device\Windows\Start Menu
And then create a new folder in there, calling it something relevant like "Java Games". Then just copy and paste the games into that folder (or you can do "paste as shortcut" and leave the actual games where they are).
Hope this helps.
John.

screenshots are made with a prog called PocketScreen 1.3 (thanks RHAPSODY) and it's usually included in may ROM's made by Great CHEF's
regarding the option - "send shortcut to Programs" works only with exe
good guys above have already answered how to make shortcuts for non .exe files .. it might sound complex..but give it a try..
else..u can make a executable file for ur jar (but this kills the idea of java and might be complex process too)
or
use esmertec jbed to launch ur java applications.

ah thank you all! and thank you especially john, I knew there must be a fairly simple way of doing it!
does anyone know if I can change the icons? at the mo all the java games have this 'e' as the icon but this means when I pick them to go on the programs tab I can't tell which is which til I've opened it!

Not an answer to the question really, but if you create a folder in the start menu, then clicking it will open a window that's similar to the programs or settings folder (not really a folder - more an icon view). This will have the full names under the icons, so it won't be a problem.
I don't know how you'd go about changing the icons, I'm afraid. Windows, yeah. Windows mobile, no.

Task manager???

hello i have see on my mobile one task manager on the right up near battery ico but now don't show..
any programms?

if you cant see the taskmanager change to the home screen or open any programm. it will appear again. if not u messed something up, do a hardreset.
there are 3 programms in the windows folder:
CpuTaskmanger
taskmanager
taskmanager light
something like that
cputaskmanager is the best, copy it and paste it as a shortcut in the windows/starmenu/programms folder to get it in the programm list.
