Yeah i cant find where to change what programs are shown on the desktop i dont need tasks or mms to show. :?:
Hello,
you can choose what you want to see in Today's Screen.
Go to : Start --> Settings --> Today
in bottom clic on "elements", and choose that you want to see or not.
clic on "OK" to save settings.
Bye,
garou
or if you really want your today screen to be empty then try this app out; called no plugins today. just install the cab and you can put the app icon on your start menu. clicking it will hide everything on your today screen leaving it with the theme or pic you use. clicking it again will have your today plugins reappear. cheers

hi everybody.
do you know how to remove (registry?) that light translucent white layer that stay over a picture if we choose for a photo as background?
thank you,
easy one. go to Programs, pictures & Videos, find the picture you want then in the menu bar you will see an option to Set as today wallpaper. Click on it And it will give you transparency level.

No, I intend to remove the transparency. I'd like to see the picture as is, non translucent. I'll choose for a photo that allow me to read the fonts...
so if you follow admisi's steps, then set transparency level to 0%, that is what you get
sure... i never tried to do it from there... sorry.
some more tips, please... :shock:
how can i remove programs from the "program" list? i uninstalled etrust antivirus, but it keeps to show in programs...
one more... i found that if i uncheck to put the device in sleep mode "after x minutes" under "energy->advanced" it's really faster, especially after long times of inactivity, but it spend much more battery. do you have the same impression?
thank you,
Not all programs uninstall completely I'm afraid. The items you see in Programs are in
\windows\start menu\programs
For the programs that remain even after they've been uninstalled, you can manually delete the shortcuts by navigating to the above folder and deleting them in File Explorer - or via Windows assuming you're synced to your PC.
I have heard that unticking the power saving options increases performance, but I haven't tried it myself.
Cheers

thank you, done.
do you think that mantain opened many apps could use up battery?
Guys,
Is there a way to set a picture as your background? IE. so you just have the pic and the start menu rather that the screen split into 2 with icons, etc everywhere!
Cheers,

I think what you mean is that you want to get rid of all the Today Items.
So go to Start, Settings, Today....then to the "Items" tab, and untick everything. This will leave you with a blank Today Screen with just Start Menu and your wallpaper.
Perfect thanks! Now how about the left hand menu? Messages, calls, etc.

Hey, some time ago i changed some things on my HTC HD and one of those things is my start menu. When i open the start menu i see a list of smaller icons than you see in the standard start menu. In the beginning you only see the 7 programs that you want your start menu to show. But somehow i've changed my start menu which shows the following now:
Agenda
Messages
Contacts
Internet Explorer
Notes
Telephone
-------------
//Recently opened apps
App1
App2
App3
...
-------------
Programs
Settings
Help
The problem is, is that i forgot how i did this... So i was hoping any of you could tell me how i did this.. If i get the chance all also try to add a picture of my menu and the default menu, so you get a better picture of what i mean.

Using a file explorer, you can add or delete new folders to your 'Start Menu' folder. Name them like: Web, Travel, Utilities, System and Media. Copy relevant shortcuts from you 'Programs' folder in your 'Start Menu' folder to each of these new folders. You will need to use a 3rd party file explorer to unhide system files and rom files to see the pre-installed icons to copy them to your folders. These icons are '.ink' shortcuts. Also copy the entire 'Games' folder and 'Office' folder from your 'Programs' folder direct to your 'Start Menu' folder. Finally uncheck all checked boxes in Menus in Settings page. This will allow all 9 folders to show in your Start menu on your home page, where you can access specific apps much quicker. Remember each time you install or remove a program/game, you have to either copy the new 'ink' icon to your category folder or delete it.
You can also use utility apps like HDTweak & Advanced Config to change size of Start Menu
If you go to Start/Settings/System/TouchFLO you also can change Start Menu size

Thanks! That's the one i was looking for ^^
Hi Guys,
I have recently installed TomTom on my HD. I moved some files around and now my tomtom icon doesn't display.
If I go into start programs it displays fine and it displays fine in the touchflo programs tab, but under the start menu where you get your last 5 opened programs it displays as an app window (blue top bar blank window) same in the touchflo all programs scroll menu.
I'm very confused is there a regostry setting that tells the start menu or touchflo where the icon is, or does anyone have any ideas?
Many Thanks
has no one got any ideas on this?
Did you try to create a new shortcut for the application?
Is there any way of doing this?
Thanks
You can use a program called IconChanger, it can place the icons where you want in the gridlist. Download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567080.
When you open the program you just press MENU and Sort Current Items or something like that. Now you will see a list with all the names right, the first 3 is the first line in the startmenu and then the 3 following is the 2nd line and so on.
Thank you for your reply. But can you change the wallpaper for the honeycomb as well?
Yes you can, go to settings/today and disable TF3D, then go to pictures & videos (or album, I'm not sure which one) and find the wallpaper you want, tap and hold it till you get a list, chose "use this wallpaper as background" or something like that, set the transperency to 0% and you're ready to go.
And btw, go to settings and re-enable TF3D of course
In the later versions of WM, you can actually drag and drop the start menu icons around without the need of a 3rd party app.
Most WM6.5.1 roms will support this but WM6.5 does not.

I've put some icons on my Wildfire (Like 500), and I nicely organized them with 5 folders each containing 100, but when I go to the window to change the icon of an application it just shows all of the icons (500), and doesn't show any folders.
Does anyone know how to let my phone display the folders with icons in them instead of loading all of them in one time?

well, i am not much an expert but why dont you try downloading "picturen lite" from market. and then when you change an icon, select picturen lite to complete the action instead of gallery. see if it works....
Download quickpic from the market.
Also, I had another question.
When opening a folder it gave me the choice ''Open with Pictures/OI File Manager''.
I accidentally did ''Remember'' and I wan't to choose the other one now, what do I do?
Menu> settings> applications> manage applications, go to the app that is selected as default and tap clear defaults.
Go to Settings->Applications-> Manage apps-> choose the app you set as default and tap on 'Clear defaults'
Thanks, both of you !
