which version is your HTC plugin ? Mine (freelancer ) does not have those keys . I tried to add manually, but on reboot they were all erased back to default . Can you export the reg key ?

How to delete Smartone Icon. Because Icon & Date Icon to overlap
THANKS

If you don't like the long notation, you can also do it like this:
SSDte string: dddd, dd-MM-yy
You will see now: thursday, 19-07-07
or
SSDte string: dddd dd-MM-yy
You will see now: thursday 19-07-07

Same here...

Ok, here is what I have in my register:
(Default)
DWORD 1 : Name = IDate / DWORD data = 1 / Basis = DEX
DWORD 2 : Name = ITime / DWORD data = 1 / Basis = DEX
DWORD 3 : Name = ITLZr / DWORD data = 1 / Basis = DEX
DWORD 4 : Name = ITMPN / DWORD data = 9 / Basis = DEX
DWORD 5 : Name = ICID / DWORD data = 1043 / Basis = DEX (countrycode for The Netherlands) (from settings, regional settings?)
String 1: Name = SDate / String = -
String 2: Name = SSDte / String = dddd dd-MM-yy (for instance)
String 3: Name = STFmt / String = HH:mm:ss (from settings, regional settings?)
String 4: Name = STime / String = :
It certainly has a relation with the Regional settings.
So also check settings/Regional settings and look at the short and the long date.
Good luck!

With my regional settings (Polish) I have only one option (yy-MM-dd), so I can't change it to other. I guess it's a matter of each locale...

date
i found it on mine. htc home from the kaiser port project here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316107
i personally don't like the long date all that much i prefer yy.MM.dd but it is nice to know where to go to tweak it for later. this also led me to find the reg values to back up custom settings for the launcher =)

ok... try to tap on only option avalaible and after turn back on registry.
it's probably wm6 autogenreate the registry option only when you try to change options
in my regional settings ( italian) i have default option and yy-MM-dd

There is an easier way if you have HTCustom installed. HTCustom have a short date format hack. I changed mine to ddd, dd/MM/yy
Don't make it too long as it will affect other short date display as well (i.e. in call list, file manager etc...)

Copy To The Windows Folder
Copy the download to the Windows folder,don't take the download out of the package leave the download in the package, just copy it to the Windows folder, soft reset the device.

Actually, this is an interesting topic in itself, i.e. remapping the long-press (aka. press-and-hold) functionality of the HOME key. For example, I'd like to change it to be something completely different (perhaps the VITO AudioNotes recorder, for example), and it doesn't look like this can be achieved from fiddling with the keymap (kmap) file.
On the some smartphones, the long press of the HOME key can be tweaked by simply replacing the default application that gets loaded by tweaking the appropriate registry key. For example, on the Motorola Q, the long-press of the HOME key brings up the quickapp.exe (i.e. the "quick list" that seems to come up on my T-Mobile Dash w/WM6 when I quickly press the Power button). So, if I had a Motorola Q, all I'd need to do was go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSQuickApp\1
and replace quickapp.exe with something else.
I just can't figure out the right place to tweak things for my Dash. All I know is that now when I press-and-hold the HOME key it brings up the Voice Recorder. I can't even find where the Voice Recorder program is stored... it's link file (.lnk) in the Start Menu contains:
22#:MSTNOTES?:notesapp
And I can't seem to find any reference to notesapp (either in the \Windows directory -- e.g. no notesapp.exe or notesapp.lnk, nor in the registry).
My only hint was to look under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSTNOTES
but there I found that it was referencing ":MSPOUTLOOK notes"... Another mystery to me. It feels like I'm going through magic rabbit holes like Alice in Wonderland, that lead to nowhere...
Anyone with some further insights on this?

Remap Home key for Voice Command
Will the above keymap change the rest of my keys? I don't know how to read those things, so I can't just create my own keymap by changing that one line.

For me holding the Home key launches Voice Command. Do you have App3 selected as the voice Button? Do you have voice command enabled. I am using an s621 with the Rogers WM6 ROM.

Tilt2 PTT button Remap

I am looking for someone who still has the stock ATT rom to give me some information so I can attempt to remap the PTT button for MS Voice Command. I have keyboard config installed, but so far I have not had much luck getting it to work the way I want it.
If someone could be so kind, I need the following information. With a registry editor, goto:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
Please include all the entries under that section. They should look something like this. They will be label with codes like 40C6,40C7...etc
Code:
(default) "path to your program in quotes"
dword: BtnWnd value=0
dword: Flags value=0
string: Name value=Button 6
string: ResetCmd value "path to your program in quotes"
string: WndCls LEAVE BLANK

just go into settings, buttons, and set push to talk as voice command. it lets you do that on the stock rom.

I use AE Buttons. It will let me use a single click for "ok/close" and a long press for voice command.

The ROM I use does not have those buttons mapped under the buttons config. That is why I would like the registry entires so I can add them.

Adding context-menu extensions in File Explorer

I am trying to add an extension to the context menu of the File Explorer. I know how to do this in desktop windows, but it doesn't work in Windows Mobile. This is what it looks like for destktop windows:
Code:
RegistryKey key = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey("*");
RegistryKey shellKey = key.CreateSubKey("Shell");
RegistryKey emacsKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("emacs");
emacsKey.SetValue(null, "Edit with emacs");
RegistryKey commandKey = emacsKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "c:\\emacs\\bin\\emacs.exe %1");
I tried the same thing on WM6.5.3, only I switched the call to emacs for "pword.exe %1". No additional items showed up in my context menu. I decided to ditch the "*" and try to add a context menu for a specific file type first. My next attempt looked like this:
Code:
RegistryKey extensionKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey(".csv");
extensionKey.SetValue(null, "csvfile");
RegistryKey csvfileKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey("csvfile");
RegistryKey shellKey = csvfileKey.CreateSubKey("Shell");
RegistryKey openKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("Open");
RegistryKey commandKey = editKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "pword.exe %1");
RegistryKey editKey = shellKey.CreateSubKey("EditFile");
editKey.SetValue(null, "Edit This File");
RegistryKey commandKey = editKey.CreateSubKey("Command");
commandKey.SetValue(null, "pword.exe %1");
Which creates an (abbreviated) registry tree like this:
Code:
[-] HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
[-] .csv = csvfile
[-] csvfile
[-] Shell
[-] Open
[-] Command = "pword.exe %1"
[-] EditFile = "Edit This File"
[-] Command = "pword.exe %1"
My "Edit This File" option still does not show up in the context menu when I right click on a .csv file, but if I left click on it, it opens up in Pocket Word, as expected.
There must be some way to do this. I just don't know why it can't match the way it works in desktop windows. I guess I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to add context-menu items in File Explorer through the registry?
2. If so, can I extend it to files of all types? ( "*" )
I am using C# right now, but if there is an easier solution in C/C++ I'm open to it. Thanks in advance for any tips.

I'm trying the same thing and I also have no solution for this.
But i found a code sample from Microsoft, it's called CTXMenu and is included in the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 DTK.
It demonstrates how to implement a context menu extension handler.
The application extends the File Explorer context menu that appears when you tap and hold a file.
Unfortunately it's coded in C++ and I'm not so familiar with C++, so I can't help you with your problem.
But if this code sample is useful for you, I would appreciate it if you could tell me how you managed it to get this work.

I had similar problem these days. After about 2 days of googleing and editing and trying (with my minimal c++ knowledge) I succeded to create menu item which started my application with filename parameter. Of course I used the CTXMenu example and some other examples too.
As far as I know (and tried) there is not other way than extension to file manager.
Good thing is you can create menu item for all filles ("*").

Gmail 4.5 and ddlete in notification

does anyone know how to have back DELETE button in notifications for the new gmail 4.5?
In settings I have found now two options:
1. Show archive, delte or both in buttun bar
2. Enable Swipe to xxxx
where in option 2 xxx changes depending on the value for option 1:
- if 1 = archive then xxx = archive
- if 1 = delete then xxx = delete
- if 1 = both then xxx = archive (!!!)
The above makes no snese at all....
