How to create a shortcut on today screen - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hello,
I upgraded to win mobile 5 and installed the tomtom navigator manualy.
Now, I have a shortcut on today screen but doesn't work.
How can I create a new shortcut for ttn.exe from program Files on today screen, please?
Thank you.

try running wzd.cab again on your device

I tried 3 times by now but nothing.
The shortcut is on the screen but it's not working.
Any help, please?
Thank you.

Shutcut to today screen

Hi,
Is it possible to create a shortcut to the today screen?
And while I'm at it, is there a way to create a shortcut to the (active sync) BT connection that connect my device to my desktop?
TIA,
Cheers
Cacti
there is already a shortcut to the today screen-
start--> today!
PHM Key tools will do this, I imagine the built in button settings will do this, and I've got an app called TodayButton that might help:

Thanks vijay,
It's no shortcut but does exactly what I want
Any chance your will ever make a VJBlueSync version that is WM5 compatible?
Cheers
Cacti
Why do you need to install an application?
Pressing the red phone key will take you to the Today screen from anywhere.
le_cactus: TodayButton isn't even VJTodayButton - one of my earliest apps, but I like it... if you really need a shortcut to Today screen, do check out PHM Tools etc. TodayButton will be updated one day.
VJBlueSync - I released it as is just because I'd done the work, but am certainly not satisfied with it. I'm going to have to directly interact with the Bluetooth ActiveSync menu extension, which will take time I don't have right now, but hopefully, yes, I'll fix it and then try to make it compatible..

Excelent!
Where would we be without you
As for today, I want the Button 5 to switch to the today screen. On that screen there is a link to the Comm Manager so I got everything I wanted. Maybe PHM Tools can do what I want too, but this is working as it should.
@talkingbollox: I just extracted the TodayButton.exe with CabManager and copied it to my device. No need to install it if you don't want to.
Cheers,
Cacti
LOL
Just found the ButtonManager has a link to the today screen....
Why am I always looking for a difficult way to do things when there is an easy way?!?!?!
Anyways, cheerz,

Touchflo activation

Hi all,
I installed artemis touch WWE 2.0 rom (meschle) but i cant use the touchflo function. I dont know how to activate it or where It's frustrating...anybody can tell me how?
grtz
simple....drag and copy the CAb. zip file in one of your folder either phone memory or storage card. Open up win rar in your phone it will uncompress and install it.
Ello!
I'm using this rom too and loving it! Thanks muchly to meschle. I didn't have much joy with the bottom of screen activation, but the Windows key HButton shortcut works a treat. On the 2.0, hold the Windows key down unltil 2nd buzz, or install the top to bottom *.cab from the roms page. I have changed the HButton to activate touchflo on the 1st buzz and also like to use the top to bottom method... It's all explained on the roms main page...
pol
it is simple indeed when u have the cab file...but i dont.... im searching but cant find it :S
found it

Spb as default today screen

I am using HTC touch can anyone please help me to make spb mobile shell as the default today screen i went to the posts of spb mobile shell but they are soooo big that i couldnt find anything.........all i want that spb interface to be my default today screen.... thanks in advance
You mean the 3 sided one where you can flip through?
You can't really have it as a today screen. You can however set it to display on wakeup so every time you turn on your phone it's there. And when you lock your phone it is also there.

no all i want is the first one the analog clock one with the weather and all plugins i dont need the spb menu and the speed dial contacts

This can be happen and after soft reset. Just edit the mobile shell's shortcut in the windows\startup folder with a file manager(I use total commander) and remove the "-noshow" option. If there is not exist an spb mobile shell shortcut, just create one from the executable.
The problem is that starts in launcher screen and not in Now, and I didn't find until now how to change this. Maybe there is a command line parameter but I don't know which is.
please sum1 only tell me how to bring the now screen (the analog clock one only) as the today screen i dont want anything else...........

you cant. search through the millions of mobile shell 2.0 threads. the closest thing you can do is that reg hack, or go to mobile shell settings and set the now screen to appear on device wake up. it cant be set as your today screen.
There is a shortcut to the Now screen. If you look where you can assign buttons it allows you to choose the Now screen. I am not sure where it is as an exucatable.
You can go to the Now screen with the "\Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell\Menulauncher.exe -now" command. You can assign it to a button, or a FTouchFlo gesture.
1.) Copy the "MobileShell.exe" application from \Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell, and
2.) create a shortcut "Shortcut to MobileShell.lnk" in \windows\StartUp, then
3.) Perform a Soft reset.
Now the Mobile Shell Spb Menu (Application) screen auto loads after the soft reset. No Reg edit required for this...
I have not seen or heard of a Now Screen edit as of yet but I'm sure one of these great Programmer / Chefs has one in the works... Have you seen what they are doing so far?

The above mention instructions does not replace the Today Screen but only bypasses it after a reset. If you close MS2.0 at any time, it will take you back to the Today Screen. As far as I know, you can not totally replace your Today Screen.
Good luck and keep on reading... The XDA Google search function can do wonders....

Thanks for this! With this I achieve to make the device starts in now screen after soft reset with the help of mortscript.
I made a shortcut with above command, and after I write this script:
Code:
run ("\Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell\MobileShell.exe")
Sleep( 10000 )
Run ("\Program Files\Spb Mobile Shell\MenuLauncher.lnk")
I put a shortcut of the script file in windows\startup folder and reset the device.
Now I have the now screen after every soft reset.
I modified the memwatcher sdk sample to launch spb now screen whenever user gets to today screen. Install the CAB file and every time when you return to today screen it'll quickly put you back at spb now screen.

That's What I Have Been Waiting For!!!!!!!!!!!!
God Job!
Be careful when using this cab.
I installed this tool on my german htc touch and now the device freezes all the time.
There is an error message saying " can`t open file MenuLauncher. Perhaps this file is not signed or one of its component is missing".
Then my device is showing the rotating icon for searching and doesn`t accept any input. How can i get rid of this without having to hardreset my htc ? After soft reset the device is still running in this error message, and active sync will not recognize my ppc to uninstall from there, so I need some help please.......
got the same problem on my german device.
any ideas to fix it?
@rod65
perform a softreset and boot in "safe-mode"... deinstallieren fertig...
Thank YOU!

Help!! My lower tool bar at Today screen turn White!!!

Dear all,
My HD's lower tool bar at Today screen turn's white in color. So, its so difficult to see the words "Phone" and "Programe". Anyone can help in solving this problem???
Thanks a lot!!!
I mean my bottom tool bar changed to Transparent. Can anyone help me to remove it? Thanks very much!!
did you installed any programs before this like MapKing?
yes I have MapKing installed...
delete the Mapking_SMS.lnk in your startup folder and soft reset your HD... if the bar is still washed out, uninstall MapKing.
I have reinstalled MapKing again and it works fine right now. However, I couldnt find the Mapking_SMS.lnk in the Start-up folder. "Start-Up" folder under "Windows"?? Thanks very much!
Dear brother,

I have the same problem in previous x1, it is the mapking program problem and it is cause by other program I forgotten which one. Try uninstall the programs one by one to find out or if you can remember which is the last program installed before this problem appear.

touchflo dissapeared

i have managed to make touchflo disappear from the today menu. it happened after using ssaap? the program remapping software. I can run it from file explorer but how do i get it back. i could live without it if i could find a nice weather plugin for homepage
I suppose you tried the obvious and reenable TF3D via Start>Settings>Today>Plug-ins>select TF3D?
If that doesn´t work, I´m afraid I can´t help you.....
Yeah I have the same problem. My Touchflo has dissappeared yesterday. I hadn't even installed anything new! Been through to the today settings and removed toucflo. Then put it back on and even after doing this it does not show up.
Please Please Please can anyone help with this?
touchflo has actually disappeared from settings screen. Its not there?. All because i wanted to set agenda as my calender. It was going great until I tried to change the appointment link on screen and then gone. I recon I will re install duttys rom which is excellant. Its seems really fast.
Try a "full restore" with SSMaPa.......
