How do I create a shortcut to lock and unlock device?

I understand the lock and unlock can be done using hardware keys. But on my device I need to use two keys and its hard to do that in some situations.

The default today screen has "Device unlocked" option which when you tap locks the screen. How can I configure similar shortcut? Which program under windows directory will lock the screen?

This is for Windows mobile 6.

-thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] smokeydonuts:
Try using S2U2 by A_C its one of the best lock screes out there and its free. you can also have it set to auto lock when you sleep the device and works great with Androkkid. You can also yet it to lock when you click the program like you have it set up now.

I'm probably asking this in the wrong place, I know, but is it possible to trim down those hideously oversized WinMo header and footer bars? They're not too bad when the display's in portait, but on my Xperia's skinny little 3" screen, they consume a vast amount of screen real estate in landscape. They make mobile MSN Messenger like reading text from a stick of chewing gum, and it sucks.

Is it possible to trim them down so that they're only around half the current height? Or, could they be set to auto-hide, like the desktop Windows start menu? Alternatively, if they are a function of the mobile shell, is there a replacement shell on offer, or can I hack one of my own sloppy VB creation into place?

Cheers all

Thankyou.

oh god here goes mr stylez again getting offended at everything anyone says.. keep the forum clean..... blah blah blah. he had a question you could've answered you prick.. so the answer is brand new 20 bucks on average. i'd say 15 if yours is mildly worn.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
The whole point of a forum is to get relevant information, to provide relevant information, were not here to search for something so simple as how much is?

Hey.

After uninstalling Task Switcher - I believe -

I have two items stuck,

One on Programs - Setup one,

One in Settings - Task Switcher.

It's not a great program...

Attached screens.

How to remove these??

This crap annoys me. Device was rebooted,

as well as Program Files removed too....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikegotti:
browse to windows>start menu>programs, i think thats it(my phone is off now) and delete the file using resco :)

not sure about the one in settings
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
Okay,

I found programs there and removed "Setup"

But how to REMOVE the TaskSwitcher icon from the Settings menu???
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orelsi:
Maybe running a cleaner would help? Like the one in the SKTools.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
Nope, I constantly run FastCleanup and ClearTemp.....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poetryrocksalot:
reinstall the program with the task switcher settings icon, then install the full version of sktools and choose "uninstall" [as opposed to standard uninstall].
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
So no other way?

I don't use SKTools.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] db_darryl:
Just wondering if anyone has encoutered a problem with the screen turning itself off. It is not a settings issue but the screen randomly turns itself off in the middle of being used so i am guessing it mght be something to do with the light sensor perhaps?

Well if anyone else has the same problem or can offer some sort of explanation i would be very interested to hear about it.

Thanks in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pencilcase:
i think this might be related to autolock. if you have that enabled, disable the screen dimming and let it turn off after say 2 minutes. then you should be ok.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] frankpr:
I've had a similar issue recently - suddenly the screen started to switch off after 30 seconds without use, no matter what settings I configured in the energy system settings. No explanation, probably a bug in the 6.1 stock ROM. (I'm on another ROM now...)

same here. tried some reg tweaks but none disabled poweroff after 30 seconds
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] bnm7bnm:
it happens to me every time after i use igo8,

so my solution is to go to the MANILA power setting (not the default windows setting) and turn DIM off.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] cornstar:
cannot find manila power settings. where are they?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] bnm7bnm:
i have Tom's 6.5 rom so when i goto regular settings it takes me to manila style setting & not the default one.

I have a 6.1 windows, what can I do to deal with this problem ?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] bnm7bnm:
in power settings enable & disable dim it will fix this but only till next time... i do it after every time i use igo8.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] cornstar:
this is especially annoying when using the topaz as hard disk or navigating via tomtom. hope they will bring out a fix soon.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] db_darryl:
Think my problem was slightly similar as I was using the original shipped ROM. Well phone is with HTC now in for screen repair so hopefully the problem will be solved.

I'm guessing it was probably down to an install of some 3rd party application. anyway will repost after i get my td2 back tomorrow

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzalert2k:
Hello,

I am currently living in North America, and I recently purchased an Xperia off of ebay. The Xperia is the international modul from vodafone...

Anyway, I flashed the rom using the Vodafone R3A, and now the Xperia seems to be a bit slower, and frustarating.

My BIGGEST problem is that the email "send-and-recieve" is using my T-mobile connection (it fails...), instead of WIFI. The previous, R1A used WIFI.

Anyway, another question: Am I limited to what I can flash it to? Would it be bricked if I flashed a non-vodafone rom, or if I flashed a USA rom onto a UK phone?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzalert2k:
Well, I re-flashed it to Generic UK R3A firmware instead of the Vodafone one... and things seem to be working, and the email thing seems to be resolved...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comeradealexi:
Cool - yea Vodafone would have the settings set to their network - and yea you can flash it over and over just make sure you copy everything properly or disconnect anything unexpectadely

Heya, thanks for reading.

I've got a Jade with Manilla 2D, but after using it for almost a year now I'm beginning to get tired of manilla. It works well and looks nice, but I'm looking for something new and refreshing.

I've got SPB Mobile Shell's 15-day trial, but before purchasing a license I'd like to know which alternatives there are.

So far I've seen TF2D, and messed around a bit with SPB MS 3.

How is PointUI Home 2 compared to them?

And are there any other 'today-replacers' I should look into?

Thanks in advance!

I'm looking for a way to monitor my webcam from my phone. This webcam is USB connected to my PC. Currently I have Windows Media Encoder running and it works perfectly. From work I can open windows media player and point it to http://"IP ADDY":"port" and it works. Now how am I going to get this on my phone?

I do have the port forwarded in my router. Not that much of a newb.
[G1 Apps and Games] Do0zman:
good question ive been wanting to know this for a while myslef.
[G1 Apps and Games] Shrivel:
I don't believe the G1 will stream a Windows Media stream (heck it won't play a WMV file). You'll have to stream using a different format. If I remember correctly (and I might not), Orb offers webcam streaming that can be used with the Android Orb app.
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
try IP cam viewer, it might be compatible with your camera
[G1 Apps and Games] prscott1:
goto market and search 'webcam' - you'll see 'IP cam viewer' by Robert Chou. It works with many many commercial webcams and the dev is the best at responding to questions and requests.

Hi,

i am using the deepshining 6.1 ROM with windows mobile 6.5

I want to use the nice build inwindows mobile lockscreen. I enabled the autolock so the device locks when turning off. Turning on again you see the wm lockscreen and two seconds later TF3d appears over the locked screen. That shouldn´t happen. How can i fix this Problem?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Nick99EXB:
I had the same problem after using a customer WM 6.5 ROM. The only solution I found was to use S2U2. It is working good so far.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dwizzy130:
I constantly switch between TFLO3D2 and Titanium, so I have the regular 6.5 lock mapped to the right softkey on Titanium and I have S2U2 mapped as the right softkey on TFLO3D2. There has been no fix for this issue yet.

Hi all, I've just a little problem: my "Flash Disk" quickly becomes full, 'cause "Pocket ImageViewer" creates thumbnails just here!

Is there a way to set a different location for cache folder and put it in external memory (SD)?

I have just bought an unlocked D2. I have a SPV e650 , so this is really old

Do I need an updated SIM as the D2 supports 3G , wheras my old phone did not??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tom Lenferink:
NO :confused:

Your provider should support it, it has nothing to do with sim-card.

Just put it in and the phone will ask you to set GPRS settings for your provider.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atan.ismail:
Actually not really true. In Singapore, mobile users were asked to upgrade their G SIMs to 3G SIMs when 3G was introduced widely here.

I guess it would depend on your service provider and how old your SIM is.

That's something you should ask your provider.

Chinese Font (9 July 2010)

This Arphic CHS Font v1.1.20090924.00 is taken from Obeo. It also works in Sense 2.5.

This will remove the arrow keys at the bottom of EzInput SIP.

Here's an instruction on how to make the Back key works in Sense. (This has been cooked in for newer roms)

Patched New Contact Card (16 Jan 2010)

I'm trying to resize New Contact Card to VGA for landscape but failed. But at least I get the scrolling work. Get it here. Fully patched and integrated into Sense 2.1 rom.

Bubble Breaker (2 Nov 2009)

Since Bubble Breaker is not included anymore, you'll have to get the cab here.

Opera is not included (1 Nov 2009)

Go here and choose any version of Opera of your liking. Personally, I'm using Opera Mobile 9.7 Build 35541. I decided not to cook it in as people like me, tend to upgrade Opera if there is a newer build available.

Font Enhancement

+ Que PPC uploaded a nice font enchantment over here. I like it very much, but of course, if you like it, download and install the cab (it's the attachment of the post).

Working A-GPS with Nokia's SUPL server

Download this registry. Before importing the registry, you'll need to edit the APN, GprsConnection and Network values. The values can be found in your internet connection settings. The current setting in the registry is for Celcom 3G (Malaysia). To import the registry, you need software like TaskMgr.

Contact's name in missed call sms

Install QuadSMS to add contact's name in them. (Included in V1.1)

Thanks. I hope you enjoy using it as am I cooking it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] bagpiper:
very nice and fast rom, thanks for sharing..

the only problem is that if i use tf3d, there is not battery icon on task bar.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] programatix:
Well, it suppose to show time when returned to Manila. There is a registry fix for that somewhere. Let me check on that.

EDIT: The registry fix has already been applied, but some how, the clock is displayed in today screen. So for now, I do not have the solution for this.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] corepda:
battery status with this rom? thanks, seems very cool work. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] programatix:
Posted V1.1
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] NeoID:
Wow, this rom sounds very promising, by far more then the other out without all that (for me) unnecessary crap. Thanks, I'll give it a try when I've got more time at hand.. :)

Last time I've tried TF3D2 it was very buggy, impossible to use. The sms-screen rotated when trying to type, album didn't work and such... I hope this works better, keep up the good work! :)

Edit: It works really nice, at least as far as I can see, but it's also using quite a lot of RAM (only 80MB left, while wm6.1 gave me 140-150MB). I'll report back when I run into errors...

Edit2 (Bugs):

- On boot, the keyboard pops up and when tapping the text field on the sms-screen (TF3D), it also pops up. When trying to just use the slide-out keyboard, it closes the sms-screen and switches starts to type the number ready to call...

This bug makes the Rom unusable in my opinion as I can't use my slideout keyboard...!

-Several glitches when rotating the screen and scrolling.

- On the sms-conversation screen, the message is trimmed and I can't reveal the rest of it...

- Album struggles with my images, they are very blurred

- The in call recording can't be launched

- It takes ages before a call comes through with no sound at all!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
I just downloaded and installed your rom. While it is VERY fast, I don't see the Movable icons in the Start Menu. When I tap and hold on an icon, the only option I get is "move to top" like always.

The theme is nice. TF3D is running fantastic. For some reason I can't get any signal on my AT&T Fuze. I've tried re-running the connection manager but no go.

Also, you mentioned there wasn't a semi-transparent black background while viewing the Start Menu in Landscape. Do you have the file in your kitchen? Should be:

\SYS\21222\dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640\COMMON\base_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640\StartMenu_Background_Screen_640x480.png

I was trying out a 23009 rom to see how it compared to my favorite 21222 kitchen. I really dig the theme. Red, black, and green really pop. What I'm interested in really is what package are you using for your HTC Task Manager. I like how the color themes change based off the Windows Theme. The task manager was always one I couldn't to theme to match.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] pilgrim011:
I agree, congrats to the chef for a nice work, but RAM is the dealbreaker. :( 120-130 MB would be exceptable minimum for me.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] NeoID:
You have to tap and hold on the icon, then move it.

I've not made any calls, but got some messages and have full reception on my Raphael.

And yes, the ROM is very fast once loaded, much faster then all the other I've tried!

Edit: By the way, why not use 21222 as a base? I've heard several people say that's superior to any release yet..

Maybe that would kill some glitches or so... :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Farmer Ted:
If it's faster than any rom you've tried, then the ram must be put to proper use, huh? Having a lot of free ram and a slow rom is kind of pointless, imo.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] NeoID:
I didn't mean to complain about it, well, it might shorten the battery life, but anyway, it's the bugs making me go back to stock... especially the sms-issues and low performing on graphics (glitches). :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] pilgrim011:
I think that free RAM is the most important thing on the phone. If you are doing some work, faster is good, but even if the device is a bit slower, it's gonna do the job, few seconds later. Without enough free RAM, you cannot do the job at all... ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
I do use 21222 as a base in all of my roms. But for some reason I cannot get the icons to move in the start menu. I've tried cooking my own roms with the updated shell32.exe cooked in and nothing. It was one of the main reasons why I flashed this was to test. Even with this version, when I tap and hold, I see the ring, then a popup that says "move to top".

When I try to mix the shell32.exe into 21222 it won't even boot.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] NeoID:
player911: Strange, I've no problems moving the icons (only in the start-menu of cause)...

Btw, your rom also looks very nice, I guess TF3D2 just isn't ready to use yet...maybe I should try your Titanium version :D

pilgrim01: Yes, RAM is important, but I think more in term of battery life, as this ROM seriously drains the battery (at least while playing around with it now it has now used over 10%)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] phonefan:
I just downloaded and installed Exquisite 3.2a. It appears that it does not include the newest version of Microsoft My Phone. When running My Phone, it prompts me to update. After updating, there are two versions (or at least two shortcuts) to My Phone in the start menu. How can I remove the preinstalled version or update it instead of installed the new version alongside it?

Edit: Also, how can I disable the vibrate on-touch?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] programatix:
Both links should have been pointing to the same My Phone. Regarding the vibrate, you need to change the setting for Touch Input in Settings->Input

Hi,

I just installed this rom. It seems fine for me except one thing : the blue TF3d is really not coherent with the rest of the phone.

where can I get the original TF3D green theme ??

thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] programatix:
Well, the statement should be, "the green dialer is really not coherent with the rest of the phone" as the dialer is the only one which is green. And... I kinda like the green dialer :) You can find out how to change the colour of the dialer by going to the Tachi Phone Canvas thread.

And of course, all WM6.5 native components are red in colour. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] bjevers:
Great rom Programatix! One issue I discovered was when I installed the Comm Manager version 2.9 from your goodies section, I lost the Settings button under the 6.5 start menu. Also, how do I map the Home key to the 6.5 start menu? I am not using Manila, I'm using SPB Mobile Shell.
