Is there a way to remove the locked icons on the TP2 on the Start menu with all your apps on it? The icons I want to remove are locked (Home People Contacts Calendar)
go to windows/start menu/programs and remove them..
i'm guessing it's the icons that start up the programs you want to remove right?

No, when you are on the home screen and you press the windows icon, all your apps will show and the their are 4 locked apps at the top. I want to remove those.
Please see sticky.

How can i remove the link from my start menu, and COMPLETLY hide it on my home screen? I have myfaves as "hide myfaves" but all it does is hide the big circles, but i still have a small myfaves icon on the home screen.

Kill the MyFav process then remove it from the startup folder.
where is the start up folder? and how do i get the link out of my start menu.
i went thru all the folders in my phone as it was connected but i didnt see it
nevermind, i deleted it... but i still see the "myfaves" small little icon on the home screen. i think i have to edit the xml to hide that. how so?
on the sliding panels i would like to have the right softkey link me to tasks instead of today. i can already see today on the panel, so a task button would be awesome there. any ideas? i know how to change the clock panel to do it but cant seem to get cappointments to have that option.
use smarttoolkit.

will that let me set just the one sliding panel to do it? i dont want it accept in that panel
What it wil do is above your left soft key, it will put a windows vista orb start logo and function as a regular pc start menu and above the right soft key, it will say tasks and put a tasks logo above it and you can use it to open or close tasks currently running
already have celetask so not what i need.... i want it to map to my outlook tasks
There is a way, but it's gonna be time consuming. You can go into your HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome directory in your registry, and edit the locname or SK2TEXT and url associated with that. You would then be able to link to your outlook contacts every panel you were on, but that would take away the coolness of the homescreen. You should probably just do it to the clock registry section and leave it at that. Anyway, hope that helps

not exactly... there SHOULD be a way to edit just the one panel like you can with the cmyapplications panel..... but when i go into cappointments there is no sk2text to edit or url.... If there was it would be easy to change them in both chome directory.
I use reStart to change icons on the 6.5 start menu but does anyone have a program that will delete/add shortcuts? Editing the registry is a bit of a pain.
I also find reStart to be very hit or miss with it's functionality. In fact it's what's messed my start menu up adding shortcuts in places I don't want that I can no longer move. I'm going to try hComber instead for icon changing.
Go to /Windows/StartMenu/Program (and play) ;-)
lol How easy.
Thanks a lot.
Hey people, I was just wondering if there is an app that allows you to rearrange the order of the icons in the wm6.5 start menu? I've tried JWMDIconChanger but it seems to be missing several icons from the start menu.
JSPA Program Manager should do the trick

Looks like it only allows you to configure what shortcuts appear where, but not the actual order they appear in on the page.
Try restart. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481379

I just used the "move to top" feature...and started in reverse order that I wanted the programs, so the one I started with is at the bottom of the screen, and the one I finished with is at the top. It orders them left ---> to right, in the honeycomb/staggered fashion when doing this method....seamed simple enough...without using more memory.
I installed JWMDIcon Changer program. It does indeed allow you to change the order of the icons in the Start page and within any folders. It does a lot of other things, but this is the only thing I wanted it for. The only pain is that you have to soft reset after every change, so if you move things and don't like it, you have to redo it and SR. Loving my new icon arrangement.

For missing icons, choose Menu>Tools>Scan unregistered shortcuts

Mates,
KE2 with OC KDD kernel; TW4.
How do I change the default apps by pressing Contacts or SMS?
I want to use 3rd party Contacts and SMS app; but still want to use TW4...
Open applications menu. Click menu button and choose edit. For message program change: Drag message icon out into the application area. The drag gosms onto the apps/icons bar. Hope this is clear.

Ahhh; sorry mate; didnt explain clear enough. Got a customized theme; and because of this the icons are according to the theme; but if I change the SMS icon with the Go SMS; then I loose the customized icons.....
But thanx for the tip though :=)
Ahh OK. So to keep the icons the same change the shortcut link different I suppose another option, rather than change the shortcut link, would be to change the icon/shortcut and then change its icon to the your theme.
I have no idea which is easier and how to do it unfortunately so just putting it out there in case it helps. I guess for both these things you may need to root your phone and get a more powerful file browser.
