problem making shortcut with dashconfig JOGGR

Quick question, i tried to make a .lnk of deepfish in my storage card and remap the Tzone button...it doesnt work....i tried different paths:
\storage card\program files\deepfish\deepfish.lnk
this doesnt work
even if i put in the root like \deepfish.lnk
...doesnt work and gives me an error...what im doing wrong here?
btw im having wm6 and the link does work when i click it with explorer if that helps.
i came so far as:
Remapping Keys and Text Input
How To Edit the Keyboard Link
Download http://vieka.com/wordpad.htm Vieka WordPad.
Sync your phone to your PC.
Run CE Notepad on your computer and open any of the following files:
T-Zones Button: "\Windows\Short_IE.lnk"
***Second Method if you have Total Commander, this can be done on the Dash directly.
Navigate to \Windows\Short_IE.lnk
Edit it (to one of the suggestions below for instance), save and reboot.
Recommended Remaps
CommManager: 36#"\windows\CommManager.exe"
Task Manager: 19#\Windows\IA_Task_Manager.exe?:TaskManagerApp
Internet Explorer: 36#"\windows\iexplore.exe"
i dont get the numbers b4 the links.....

Why are you using .lnk? Shouldn't it be .exe if you are using it from your directory and not from Windows Start Menu? Try this exactly as I type it.
36#"Storage Card\Program Files\Deepfish\deepfish.exe"
in your DashConfig. You must use the number 36# because it assigns the hotkey button; in this case the T-Zone button. I believe 19# would be the Mail hotkey. I hope it helps.

The path should have a forward slash before Storage Card\Program Files\Deepfish\deepfish.exe.
I was wondering why he was trying to call up the program via shortcut.

This is why:

According to the link of the tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281289
'Here is a utility I wrote that will let you change almost all of the JOGGR settings on the phone. It will also let you change the apps that launch when you press the Camera key and the T-Zones key. The app shortcuts must be in the shortcut file format because I didn't know enough about the Windows CE LNK format to simply let you pick an EXE.'
Guess u guys r right and he didnt update the link.
thanks anyway for the help and quick response

How do I associate a reg file to load automatically?

I created a reg file using task manager when I had Meschle's Touct 3.1 ROM installed because I needed to run a registry hack every morning to correct a registry setting change my Exchange server was forcing on me.
I've since moved to Meschles Vanilla 2.1 ROM, but there's no application associated with the REG files so my registry file won't load any more when I click on the file.
I've loaded both HTC and fpb Task Managers bu tthey don't associate the ".reg" file suffix.
I've installed Regedit, which associates the .reg files, but tha tjust opens the files for editing rather than running and loading the registry changes.
Can anyone advise what I need to do so that I can easily "load" my registry change ".reg" file again?
Thanks,
Graham

Hi there,
I use Resco Explorer with the built-in registry editor. It will solve your two problems in one: RE will let you 'associate' files so they open with an app of your choice, and the registry editor will let you import/export keys.
You could even put a shortcut to this .reg file in your startup folder so that after a soft-reset it would be imported again!
Hope this helps.

a few issues with wm6.1

i installed the kavana 6.1, and i have to say it works great, but there are a few quirks that are making me mad and maybe some of you guys have a fix for them:
gmail imap:
i did the [email protected] (or whatever you want as your domain) trick, and then going back to chnage it back to gmail, that works. but th ename of my mailbox is gmool.com and i cannot change it at all through account settings. registry hack?
i have a t-mobile dash, so pressing and holding the J button, or using alt-J should give me an @, but it gives me the GB pound sign, the & sign gives me the @. keyboard remap? reg hack?
other than that, it works great.

You can fix the keyboard crap by going in to resco explorer, opening program files, finding et9 and changing the icons in your notepad(your j,k,l,m will be all messed up as well)... or you can over write with this file...

Take the file above and drop it in the windows directory of your phone and overwrite the old one. That will fix your characters.

My device won't let me overwrite the eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt file. I think that's because it's burned into the firmware. I kinda expected this when you guys said to overwrite the file in the \windows folder. How do I update the file to get the correct keyboard mapping?
Also, it appears the 0409 file has the correct mapping. It's the 0408 file that's wrong. I tried updating that file on the device. Of course, I had the same problem saving the updated 0408 because I couldn't write it into the firmware.

resco explorer should allow the overwrite.....

OK, I got it. Another message in this thread said to update the file in the \windows folder. I updated the file in \program files\et9 and I was fine. Thanks for the help.

is there any way of adding it to this so i can set it a icon the shorcut page
thanks for any help

Easiest way is to install Total Commander (file explorer program, google it) which has a create shortcut option. Then save the shortcut under Windows/Start Menu/Programs

you can do it using the normal file explorer, just copy what u want to link to and then go to the directory mentioned and choose paste shortcut

i want tothe icon to appear in the programs when i click add to add a shortcut tab in windows so where do i need to copy the file to?

i got to the exe and copied it to to windows/ start menu and it appears there and allows me to add it as a shortcut but when i try to run it it s not enough memery on the device, yet when i run it on the device from ist normally location it runs no problem
any advice would be great
thanks

I think you need to paste a shortcut rather than the exe itself

instead of choosing paste choose the option below called paste shortcut

your right the shortcut worked a treat thanks

Problem with Titanium Panels on non-English device

hi there!
I have an Acer neoTouch with German WM 6.5 (Build 21840.5.0.60) and a lot of the custom Titanium Panels don't work.
With don't work I mean they don't show up in Titanium, although they do in CHome Editor 1.6
Some work, some don't show up on the today screen. TitaniumStarter for example shows up, Opera Panel or CPlayer don't.
Also, Titanizer doesn't work at all. It can change the left softkey, but whatever Panels I setup, Titanium will be empty afterwards.
is there anything I need to know? Maybe a problem with different paths? Can I edit something in the Registry to make them show up? maybe there are language specific paths in the registry that I haven't found yet (but then I don't know what to search for).
thanks a lot!
Bernhard

The easest way is to create a new folder \program files and in this folder copy the titanium progs from the folder \programme. Copy not move..

hm, thanks, but copying the CPlayer directory from \Program Files to \Programme, with a subsequent reset didn't do it yet...hm.
I copied \Program Files\JMLPanex\CPlayer to \Program Files\JMLPanex
and did the same for CPlayer.
both, CPlayer and JMLPanex directories are now identical in \Program Files and \Programme
reset, but still no CPlayer panel visible on titanium (only in CHome Editor)... *snieff*

Sorry, but you think wrong. You have a german rom - In this rom the titanium progs install in the folder \Programme. But in the reg or *.xml the progs search for the folder \program files. Understand ? And some of the progs have different of screen solution. I don`t know what solution your PPC have. VGA - XVGA - WVGA Think about it, and try.

yes I do understand you, and as said, I have for example the CPlayer folder in both, Programme and Program Files. I also have the JMLPanex folder in both (with identical content).
also, the registry keys look good. same goes for other plugins, except TitaniumStarter and ElecontWeather. hm.
so, I followed your advice and copied everything to both folders, but they still don't show up. no error msgs. whatsoever

Do you have install it ? I have tried the cplayer and it works on my xperia if you do all the things that in the tread from the developer wrote. You ask him also. Possible it`s a thing in panex.dat or in the reg. I don`t know. Learning by doing. Do you have all files installed in the tread. Also the resolution file ?

Are there any files with 0409 in them?

No it isn`t. I know what you mean. For German 0407. But I think he missed some progs too and don`t install it. By me - It works.
