does any one have a cab for ENGLISH for the latest one 2.8.414.1614

thanks

Heres a cab of the newest version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Is this an English version cab? What is the difference to the previous 2.8.410 version? I did try to look at the site but did not understand anything

Thanks for the interpretation, indeed it is a bit confusing, but as the 2 improvements do not affect a lot i will stick with the previous version, which works good for me. I was hoping the new version included some gprs toggle options.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Same here. I always download the latest update, but these 2 seem pretty minor so I too will wait for a bigger update cause this version works perfectly now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] THE GRIZZ:
really good

but it really really really needs to be finger friendly.

alsoenabling wifi or bluetooh requires too many clicks. a quick enable/diasable from the first screen is needed

i switched back to the less capable htc tasks simly because of the usability issues on the experia

heres a newer one, 2.8.414.1614

is there a way to get the original drop down active tasks back?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Paulplex:
I think this has been asked but I don't see a reply - so I'll nudge the board :)

Hi guys,

I downloaded the application QuickMenu v2.8 from FreewarePocketPC.net (http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-quickmenu-v2-7.html) and although it's nice, it wasn't for me - especially since I've stuck the newer version of Manilla 2D from XDA-Developers on instead and like the tidier start menu.

Uninstalling the application through the Settings -> System -> Remove Programs menu and links, I had to also delete the 'QuickLaunch.lnk' shortcut from the Windows/Startup folder manually to prevent an error popping up about an inability to find QuickLaunch.exe when the phone turns on - and thought that was the job done...

...unfortunately, it appears Quick Menu maps its QuickLaunch.exe application to the Start hardware key on your phone; meaning that once you uninstall it, although you can tap the windows flag to bring up the Start menu via the screen, you can't press the hardware Start key without a prompt warning that the application QuickLaunch.exe can't be found.

A long and round-about way of asking I suppose, but does anybody know how to remap the Start menu hardware button on an HTC TyTNII (I've looked at various hardware key re-mapping tools but they don't include the 'Start' key as one you can change) and what it should be remapped to to ensure it operates the 'Start' menu on the screen?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Paulplex:
Fixed it :)

Opps, fixed it for myself, but if anyone else has a similar query, here's how I fixed it...

Goto Settings -> Personal -> Buttons and you'll note that the 'Start' button (button 3) is set to <Start Menu> - this doesn't work (brings up the QuickLaunch.exe application instead of the regular Start menu) so change that to anything else and click on ok. Now go back into Buttons and edit the 'Start' button to <Start Menu> again and confirm the changes - the Start button is now the default Windows one again, as I'd wanted :P

hi..nanling, may i know is it the link that u provide is the english version?? after download the software where i should to paste to?? i'm a new pda user, hope u will teach me..thanks..

Just load the cab in your device with activesync, install the cab in device memory and run the program. Then go into QuickMenu/options and set it up as you like.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lauye:
thanks claus1953.. :) so is it that i can save the file to "memory card" and run the program?? or it must save on device memory??

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ummagumma:
I think the last version is 2.8.414.1614 - at least that's what shows in mine. Don't have a link to it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
I must be installed in device memory, not storage card, but anyway it is a small utility.

Font size

Is there any possibility to increase the font size for the QuickMenu only?

I did search, but I only found a GUI registry change - and I do not want to alter all the fonts on my phone, but only for the QuickMenu.

If the solution is in this thread, and I overlooked it, I apologize. Please point it to me, so I could use the information.

Very good application, by the way. First time when I tried it, I didn't like it much, but as a second thought, it's actually awesome.

thank you very much
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] benzo:
wifi button no longer works... i don't know why...

i've updated to the latest release but nothing, still doesn't work..

I thought it was caused by WifiMonster but uninstalling it still doesn't work...

what can i do?

tnx
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tatarasi:
Try this: go in Quick Menu - Options - View tab, and there, increase "Menu item edge" to 10, e.g. (initial was 4 for me).

This will NOT increase the fonts, however, it will increase the space allocated for each row, and this will make it more finger-friendly.

all the best
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tatarasi:
Hi, did you find any solution for this issue?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
You can't change just the font size.

You can only configure the height of the item boxes.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jabo75:
Thanks for the cab!

I was going nuts with the blocks issue from the one I had loaded from the homepage and not being able to install the cab i had downloaded from freewarepocketpc.

I believe the word "Execute..." was misspelled in 2.7 - still appears to be the case!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] neiltoe:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3290639&postcount=84

In that post I edited the file to say Execute and changed Wifi to say On and Off. If Wifi doesn't work the first time make sure you have a file named WifiInit.lnk in you Startup folder in Windows.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iori:
this is great!

I've been waiting for this

The only way I can do is to assign the QuickMenu to a hardware button of my Polaris

It absolutely works whenever i press that button

I think my question is answered

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tcatnat:
Thank You

Thank you so much for the menu width adjustment. I was using this a while back on my Touch Diamond but since I almost always use my thumb to navigate it was unusable for me. The new menu item adjustment is perfect. One enhancement would be to make the 'x' to close apps larger also.

Great work.

Any plans on creating a scrollable menu? As it gets a bit messy with lots of programs installed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zachofalltrades:
This is a great app, but I'd prefer to have scrolling instead of cascading menus. It would also be nice to be able to tap the upper right of the taskbar and get the "Running Tasks" submenu.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Thunderchild:
I've got more than 100 entries in my menu with no scrolling necessary. It's the same as with the big Windows: sort your menu in categories (submenus). I've never liked scrolling around and from the start didn't like the approach of MS's "Programs" feature. And even on my first PDA back in 2002 I used some kind of cascading thingy (from Tillanosoft, I reckon).

The root level of my QuickMenu shows ten categories from \windows\start menu\programs (like Multimedia, Office, PIM, Tools, System, Games etc), plus four submenus for recent and running apps, QuickMenu's own menu and Windows Settings respectively. That makes 14 entries which nicely fit into the screen. With tap+hold on the windows logo for a running apps list and the normal start menu coming up when I tap on the window title (to serve as "program favorites" using links in \windows\start menu), I'm perfectly set even with this big number of different programs.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nuthineasy88s:
Ok, i have been looking around here and over at PPC Geeks, I can't seem to find any answer.

I am using the latest version (I believe) .1614 and when I am playing music with S2P quickmenu will close it when i do something else, like text. I have S2P on the exclude list but this doesn't seem to make any difference. I'm on a titan with Dcd 4.1.2 rom if that helps anyone.

I am getting really tired of it since I have a long commute and use my phone for music and have to restart S2P every time I text someone.

Custom skin

I love quickmenu!

But is there any way to create a custom skin for it?

I am trying to make a start menu that looks like the wm 6.5 honeycomb, and I know sh*t about programming...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kardamomo:
Hello everybody.

Thanks for the great program, but it seems that in my Omnia i900 has some drawbacks (I'm using a spanish traduced version):

* The option to replace the traditional menu is not working for me

* 'Associate the Win button' is not working, too

* 'Configuration' is empty. There is a Options menu entry (not the Quick one) that deployed the three Config panels, but only I saw it on first run then it disappeared (Yes, I checked it in Quick menu options)

Finally to display the Program I moved the 'Q' icon above the Win icon

Anyway ... the program is very nice!

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kkyy18:
this is the best Start Menu replacement i have ever seen.. have been using it for year plus... XD thank you nanling!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
You can try and rename the MUI file to fit Spanish.

.dll.0C0A.MUI

Should be your MUI Local Code.

The interface should then still show op as English.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kardamomo:
Hi.

Thanks for your answer.

I already have a Spanish ver , with the 0C0A code files, but I'm suffering the problems I wrote about.

Should I use the English ver renaming files?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
Hey trying stuff out is the core of everything we do.

So my anwser could only be yes ;)

Does the Omnia already have a Startmenu replacement ?

QM Squares Fix for WM2003

Hi People,

First time poster so please be gentle..

I have found a fix for people who have been seeing the "Squares" issue with latest versions of QuickMenu (2.8).

Up until now I have never been able to get any application that uses "MUI" localization to work on my iPaq with WM2003, the "MUI" files were just ignored.

Having a poke around today I found this:-

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms904414.aspx

After setting the "Enable" DWord to "1" the latest version of QuickMenu now localizes properly as do previous apps I have been having problems with..

I would imagine this will work regardless of the target language...

Hope this helps people...

Regards,

Marty.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
For a First Poster, you really know how to come into the room.

Good find, i have always had this set to 1 by default in any rom i ever came across before, so i did not know this one yet.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tatarasi:
Start after soft reset

Hi,

Did anyone figured out how to convince Quick Menu to self-activate after soft reset?

More often than not, when pressing the Start text, I still get the old StartMenu, although all the conditions are set for the QM to appear.

Previous responses suggested assigning QM to a hard button (that does the trick, indeed). I was just wondering if anyone found a real solution to this issue.

The reason I am asking is because I really like this application, probably one of the most useful applications here.

all the best
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marty999:
Hiya,

Thanks Noonski, there are a lot of ppl here who do a lot of good work for the community, only glad I can do my little bit....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarkRain:
Can somebody with an Italian Rom upload here the files he got to make quickmenu working?

I tried everything...renameing the files with 0410, soft&hard reset, but i always get some error or still have the squares of chinese characters.

If someone is so kind i'd really appreciate!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MarkRain:
Solved!! :)

Sorry for the intrusion
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] z-control:
for those who want to have the setting management wich is missing in quickmenu, this is an exe for open setting, make a shortcut and welldone

;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] shaggylive:
I didn't realize some were missing that..

also that file you posted is qvga.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -=Ri/\xim=-:
The zip file that you gave the link for (WM 5/6) didn't work for me (squares). But the attached cab file at the bottom of your post works fine. Thanks. I'm using this on a UBIQUIO 503G.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wg5566:
You can find a full set of all control panel settings shortcuts already packed in a zip file in this post. And a guide on how to make them by youself.

BTW, if you have DotFred's TaskMgr.exe placed in your windows folder, QuickMenu will use it for application management instead of using the Task Manager from the OS.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
Yeah i like that one especially.

:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wg5566:
Yeah. This 222kb sized TaskMgr.exe is really functional. Everybody hasn't known it yet if give a try, I promise you a suprise.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -=Ri/\xim=-:
Thanks. I don't understand the shortcuts in the first link you gave but i've downloaded the task manager and will try it out. I use wisbar on my Dell which does everything I need for that device but thought it would be disshonest to put it on the UBIQUIO as well with the same license code. So its good to get these small programs for free which really improve the functionality and hopefully speed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
A lot of long time member and cooks have DotFred's Taskamanager in the toolkit.

Some Taskmanagers do not show ALL running programs.

Dot Fred's does more, shows Processes that can be enalbed and disabled at Start or stop them actively. Has a registry editor, Notification editor, can parse Provisioning xml files and even register DLL files. It's a Tweakers dream.

So smart detail from Nanling to add that as this StartMenu gives the fastest no nonsense experience if you you a lot off apps all the time testing and tweaking the device.

really don't understand why this isn't cooking that much by cooks.

The only issue is the Taskmanager switching when on Manilla Home.

Let me check the original site for updates (hard language)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wg5566:
Since you are using WM61,actually you don't need them for QuickMenu. If running WM65, the new 'HoneyComb' startmenu changed the mechanic to showup items in a classic startmenu, caused some items inside Start-Settings are missing, copy the shortcuts to windows start menu settings will solve the problem.

I've updated the zip in origional post Anyway please try it. Because it should not show up squares. First please extract them in anywhere on your device, and click on any of them, see does it lead to the relevant settings window. Second please copy any one of the shortcut to \Windows\Start Menu\Settings\ folde, then tap Start ->QuickMenu -> options, tap the 'rebuild' in the popup window. Then check start -> settings, see whether the adde item is shown. Is that squares?

It's an important issue for us to avoid any sqares in Quick Menu.

Btw, are you using different language ROM?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -=Ri/\xim=-:
When I said I downloaded the zip for WM 5/6 in the original post I mean't the one from the link you gave to alensw.com. Thats the one that gave me the squares. When I downloaded the cab that you had posted here at xda the program worked. I'm using english rom.

I did download the PPC control panel shortcuts and tried what you said just to check that they worked and they did. When I pasted the shortcut for owner information to \Windows\Start Menu\Settings\ folder it was added to quick menu> settings fine and no squares. :)

I installed DotFred's Task Mgr cab on my device that I got from his site. Does that mean its now already in my windows folder or should I paste in the .exe file that you posted earlier into the windows folder?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wg5566:
If you got squares from the original QuickMenu zip file. Please check what is the settings in Settings -> System -> Reginal. I guess it's not English, please tell us is that right.

For TaskMgr if use the cab install, probably it will not be installed in Windows folder. Please uninstall it and use the zip version to install it in this way: Extract TaskMgr.exe and copy it to windows folder on device. Then in windows folder you hilight the file, tap menu-> edit -> copy, then go to \windows\start menu\programs\ folder and tap menu -> edit -> paste shortcut. Then you got a file named 'shortcut of Taskmgr.lnk' in that folder. You can rename it to 'Fdc task manager.lnk' or whatever name you like. Thus it will be shown in program list of start menu. This is same to install by the cab, but it's installed in windows folder.

Note if you use the common file explorer you can never see file extention names like the .lnk. Recommend two other very light but useful tools: File Explorer Extension & Total Commander. These are very useful file management with the latter also provide a registry editer's function. Please search thi forum to find the threads and download links for them, I'm using the phone right now to post this and not so convinient to search it out and post the links here. [Edit: Attatched the links.]
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -=Ri/\xim=-:
Ok I uninstalled Fdc Task Mgr and put the exe you uploaded in windows then created shortcut etc. My regional setting is English (UK) by the way so not sure why I got the squares first time round from the zip at the alensw.com site. I made a mistake about the OS its WM 6 not 6.1, strange I thought it was 6.1 but it doesn't make any difference.

I use the os file explorer mostly. I've got Total Commander on the Axim I'll install it on the UBIQUIO later and search out the fileexplorerextension program.

Thanks for your help by the way I appreciate it, this is a good community.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wg5566:
Glad to help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
You can also start TaskManager straight from Windows.

Then in Taskmanager got to Right Menu >> Options >> Create Pgm Shortcuts.

It will create a few extra handy shortcuts in Programs\System.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -=Ri/\xim=-:
Noonski what do you mean by "start TaskManager straight from Windows"?

I went into TSKMgr and ticked Create Pgm Shortcuts but nothing is showing up in Programs/System even after a soft reset. Although its ticked when I go and check.

Also when I run SK Tools 'FreeUp Ram' it closes the task manager. I normaly use SK when I have no programs running to get some extra ram without restarting the pda. Do you know of a ram cleaner that allows program exceptions so the TSKMgr would stay running when I use it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iiiox:
the one should read carefully, i hate to say that, is you....

i'm using an english rom. all the issues you mentioned were nothing new to me. and you probably didn't even notice that i HAD come up with a solution for a better font display on quickmenu....
