Radio Signal icon bubble (CommManager -> FlighMode)

Can anyone here please help.
On my previous ROM, when I tap on the Radio Signal icon, I had the option to turn OFF/ON the Radio (FlightMode), now I only have option of opening CommManager, this is quit USELESS as there is amongst others already a CommManager icon* on the bottom of the screen AND a DEDICATED CommManager hardbutton on my TyTN and after using CommManager I have to use X-Button to close the damn thing...
Can someone please tell me the Registry key where I can change this back to Radio OFF/ON... Or at least a shortcut icon I can put in HTC HOME plug. to switch Flight Mode ON/OFF without opening CommManager each time.
I flashed my TyTN (Hermes) with WM6 and I am very happy with it. Most of the little annoyances I had with it has been sorted out. Installed the HTC Home Plug, Slither200?s Cube, other 3G dialer, etc, etc...
*Any hack to get rid of this and the battery icon (I use Batty) at the bottom of the Home Screen???

Yes, here are the keys (from the wiki):
Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000
Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000
You can also use Schaps Adv Config, which automates most common registry hacks for you.
The problem is, if you hide one or both some roms can hang when booting up, so i recommend only hiding one.

Thanx

Thanx for the Re. My TyTN is very stable at the moment, so maybe I leave this icons alone (...for now...)

Turn off auto rotate and other manila v3 changes

Hey all. I've done a few searchs and read through a bunch of ROM threads (god, the dutty ones are full of stupid posts by stupid people), but haven't found any real answers.
How do we disable auto rotate / landscape mode in the new v3 Manila?
Is there any way of getting back the old notifications functionality where you click any of the icons along the top, and it brings up a screen with bigger icons for Notifications/Sound/Connections.
Use the old pop up menus? I am aware there's a tweak to make the 8 item menu into a 10 item. Can that hack be extended to 15 items?

If you use Dutty Extreme, then you had to enable the landscape rotate in the first place! In which case, to turn it off you just uninstall the "Dutty Enable Landscape" cab from "remove programs"

Nope, which is a real shame because the new notifications screen is USELESS! the "new text" is not the only thing that's useful to see! You can, however, disable the new notifications menu by going to the Task Manager (built into Duttys Extreme - sorry I can't help with where in the start menu it is because I've moved everything around to my own taste!) then go to Services and change the Notifications thingy to be "manual"

The thread that tells you how to get to 10 items actually meantions that these settings were just how that person had arrived at something that used the whole screen height perfectly. He explained which values change what and you should be able to adapt that to get whatever height of menu you want!
Hope that helps!

I'm using a different ROM now. I'm using the Lite one to try the speeds and the auto landscape is already cooked in. I was reading Dutty's because his ROM was the first to have it. I searched the thread where I got my ROM, but no one seems to dislike the auto rotate *shrug*. I don't mind it except in bed when I'm on my side.

Ok, I guess I'll modify the registry. Was hoping to disable it altogether as I don't find it all that pretty and it's simply bloat. On many apps, the new menus don't fit the theme at all.
Thanks for your helpful suggestions!

In that case, I suggest using AE Button to map one of the volume buttons to "rotate screen", then you can over-ride the auto-rotate on a case by case basis by rotating the screen manually. I've got it set to long press of volume up and down for rotating each way, so if something gets stuck, or as you say I'm lying down, then I can over-ride whichever way I want.

I've tried disabling the auto rotate for all programs, and while it works, it interferes with some other rotation programs. I use kaisoft's screen rotate, and when i rotate something, the orientation gets forced back to portrait a few seconds later.
I've gone back to Dutty's 1.7 ROM as it suits my needs better. I'm finding auto rotation with the new manila has not improved any more since the old gsen/gyrator days when people had tonnes of problems. It's still a hassle controlling what you want rotated.
Thanks

try this which i found somewhere in dutty's thread:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor
Change the autorotation key to 0
this is the only thing changed, i've not tried the above reg.
it stopped the auto-rotation for me and also solved the photo orientation bug while in camera
opera will still rotate

it works!

Yes, this way works. It stop Manila auto-rotation, but it also effects the orthers software.

Speed up your Hero (Kill Rosie)

Hi All,
I think this deserves a new thread but if I'm wrong, sorry mods..
Anyway, I'm exceedingly happy with my Hero and although I never thought it was particularly slow or laggy I have encountered a bug which has actually sped up my handset. I long pressed the home button to get the recently run apps list up and a message popped up asking me if I wanted to complete the action using Touchflo or Home. I chose home and the phone took me to a screen with my wallpaper but none of my HTC widgets and only three home screens. Since this happened the phone has been zooming along. I have not felt the need to try to restore touchflo at all, although I do miss the toggle widgets.
As a bonus I have also noticed that a lot of the Apps from the market that had been Force Closing are now working perfectly. Maybe this won't matter after the update, but if you feel your Hero is laggy you could try this.
Hope this helps.

Are you still able to use the hero music player or does it default to the android player now?

I can still use the hero music player and it is still shown on screen when the screen is locked.

you still use any app the same way you would normally it just brings the home screen back to the basic g1/magic look....

I was thinking of doing this , but really losing the htc widgets is not a solution , so I stopped the google automatic sync , and now the phone is actually fast and there is no lag .

tried yesterday....loosing the 7 screen layout + widgets slows me down much more than TouchFlo slows the Hero down :/ IMO, not worth it :/

I don't think it's a bug. You can do this by holdning down the home button. When the tasklist shows, you press the home button again. From here you can choose to use eather "Android HOME" or "TouchFLO". and you can do the same thing from Android HOME, so it's not permanent! Try it! Play around!

I used to be able to do this but I must have inadvertently changed something and now I can't access the Android Home anymore. I'm quite disappointed since I want to go to the Android Home page to test some things.
So beware. you could potentially lose this function.

u guys. to enable android home page. jusy go to settings-applications - from there go to touch flo and clear defaults.
go back to your home screen and press the home button now. u would be able to choose between android and touch flo from there.if you want to select something as default .... just tick it and there u go.
same thing applies for the android page, if you have selected it as default and want5 to revert back to touchflo. samething, setting-application- clear defaults in the home application .................etc etc,

Yeah, I also removed Rosie, and I gotta say, I really like the Hero now!
Rosie slowed the Hero to a crawl, now it's running again.
I'm eagerly waiting for the update, but if the Rosie update isn't significant, I'll probably end up removing it again..
Losing the HTC widgets is a bummer, but the speed-up it gave me is SO worth it

cant find it
I keep pressing the home and get the choice of recent programs but pressing the home again gets me to home. Secondly, In settings and application I dont get any such option for touch flo etc. Any other way of trying out the phoe without touchflo?

I second that.. Is there anyway to work around that..?

bar control or home switcher should do the trick....
bar control allows you to add a shortcut to home or touchflo on the notification bar permanently, and home switcher just jumps between the two i believe.

the program maxmanila is wat u want

If you use MaxManila and set to 16 or 20 quiklinks you can leave the fitst row empty. Then using MaxTTM you can add a transparency to make the boxes invisible. They will obviously still be active though but invisible. Swipe the screen up and the remaining shortcuts will come up. Not a totally foolproof solution but it will achieve what you are looking for.
