Tip : To Hide Bottom Right Rotate Screen Icon

Sory If This already been posting.
I don't know with others, for me the rotate screen icon at the bottom right very annoying when i miss tap bluetooth or others icon and suddenly my screen change rotation (got lagging) and i must tap twice to get back. So i decide to map rotate to record button (not bad, first push, the screen rotate to right and second push the screen back to potrait) and hide the icon.
Here the way to hide:
1. With regedit program go to HKLM\Service\ScreenRotate
2. Find ShowIcon
3. Change the value from 1 to 0
4. Soft Reset plz
Already try with my XDA II Mini
:twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I extract PHM TrayLaunch PowerToy.
Here it is :

Screen registry rotation fix
any idea what reg setting i would have to change, to make the tray icon rotate to landscape then rotate back to portrait, instead of right, left, normal?
Speedn

After installing PHM TrayLaunch I have the following minor problem: When I soft reset, the apps I added in tray Launch show up as "folder" icons instead of their original ones. When I enter TrayLaunch I see them with their original icons. Then I press ok and then the original icons are loaded in the tray. Quite annoying to do after every soft reset. Anyone a solution?

Phone skin settings in registry

In my Vario i had the ugly T-Mobile skin in the phone app. I've found the registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin, with the keys for defining whole skin.
If Enable is changed to 0, after the reset is skin ignored and phone looks as the keypad for PIN enter. The bad thing is that smartdialing doesn't work.
So i tried another way. My friend has qtek 9100. In the registry he have no keys for defining skin, cust Enable entry with value 1 and dll path.
So i changed my registry in this way, but it didn't work. Skin entries are back an i can no more change Enable value to 1.
Does anyone know how to remove phone skin with smardialing working?

I have been looking at this - I tried renaming the subkeys (DIALER and PROGRESS) and that mostly de-skinned it (had to soft reset after changing them before it took effect). The smart dialing still worked (enable was still set to 1). The smartdialer graphics were not deskinned though.
However, changing it seemed to conincide with problems I had with my GPRS settings going dodgy, and on changing back GPRS seems fine. That could just be a conincidence though.
I have found that all the skin graphics are in graphices files in the windows directory. Some of them are the ones mentioned in the registry here, and some of them are called indialer_*. These indialer_ graphics are the ones that were not deskinned by renaming the DIALER and PROGRESS keys.
There is also carrierlogo.gif that is used in the background.
I recon that renaming the keys, and getting the indialer_ graphics from a non-skinned ROM should do the trick. But I am not sure if my GPRS problems were related or not.
Not had a chance (or another ROM) to play further though.

I've tried to rename DIALER and PROGRESS keys, but noeffect. After reset, the are back the same.
I know that indialer* is skin for smardialer. Smartdialer is sometimes called interdialer..

Finally, I've made it. Skin is nice blue with working smartdialing.. New know-how about registries.

The Skin!!!
Hey can u post a screen shot of the skin you are using and if possible how to change the ugly T-mobile skin!, i just got my Vario a few days ago and havn't found how to change the skin.
Thanks

mToday ( Profils 2 today) Free

I found browsing on the Internet a little program here is very interesting
Description: mToday is an application for you to switch between two today screen profiles to enable/disable pre-defined today plug-ins quickly and conveniently.

thanks Vicott Wong

nice catch bro, i like it
thanks

great find, thanks.

hmm, interesting, thanks.

Nice idea, but very very slow.

good but keep improving
This is a good idea but as mentioned slow, so keep improving.

If you want a quick second today, take the battery status today. Then you have two today screens. But this kill one today and go to the other today. This good to save memory. For me its good. In one I have all my things. And if I want IGO8 I take the other.

NEO130,
Could you please elaborate what is the "battery status today" that you use for mToday with minimal memory?
I try to do the same: one mToday profile with the applications I commonly use and the other mToday profile for iGO8. The profile with commonly used applications works OK but when the link of the empty profile for iGO8 is invoked it stuck my HTC Trinity such that it needs a hard reset. The succeeding boot yields the empty Today.
Not a convenient way to switch profiles, though...
Thank you,
Shkauf

Hi.
I posted this over at MobiSapienz but it may be easier to chat over here?
So I read:
"Added command line option to launch settings (-p0)"
When I do:
Run(SystemPath( "ProgramFiles" ) \ "Vicsoft\MToday\mToda y.exe","-p1")
It pops up the mToday Switcher and leaves it there.
Am I not doing the command line argument correctly. I did try "-1" but as I suspected that also popped up the switcher.
I am also assuming -p0 refers to mToday 1, and -p1 would refer to mToday 2.
I kind of wish there were a reg setting for "Current mToday Profile" for last switched profile.
Thanks...

Old Internet Explorer in WM 6.5?

Hi everyone,
Is there anyway to install the OLD version of Internet Explorer (the one that came with WM 6) in the new 6.5? I am actually hoping for a side-by-side install.
Before you all think I am crazy… here is the deal.
I am a software developer and have a number of highly functional web applications (for entering orders, invoices, etc - see screen shots) that integrate with a number of popular ERP systems.
However, some of them are breaking in the new IE6. I cannot afford to not be able to demo these apps.
Best regards,
The Fish

Here is a cab file IE6. Credit goes to vin255764. I found this on one of the threads over at PPCGEEKS.

Does anyone know how i can install this and the newer version that came with 6.5 together? I tried installing this cab and it removed IE6 and replaced it with 5.
The reason i want both is that for most of the sites I look at I absolutely HATE having no "fit to one column" feature so i can only scroll vertically.
Thanks

In case anyone was interested, the above CAB file only sets one registry key to "0" (to switch to IE5 mode) or "1" to switch to the new IE6 (as in WM6.5).
The key is:
HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer
"MSHTML" = 0 or 1
Just kill the Iexplore.exe task and rerun it to run in the new mode!
You could even create two mort scripts that each have its own shortcut, and depending on which shortcut you launch, will have mortscript change this reg key and then launch IE in that mode.
P.S. A BIG thank you goes out to microsoft for adding this backwards-emulation to the new IE6 - great work!

T-Mobile TP2 - MyFave TF3D Hack - Display both Clock (aka Home) & MyFaves in TF3D

In order to show both the Clock aka Home tab & MyFaves tab in TF3D, edit the following registries;
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://home.page.hidden
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://myfaves.page.hidden
Both are DWORD's, 0 to show, 1 to hide.
Screenshots (NOTE: I don't have SIM Card in, I hacked the registry to make it show & most likely why the Contact Icons are messed up);

You must have the MyFaves Service on your account otherwise the updater disables the app's GUI & any part of the app itself from launching which is most likely why you don't see settings & also why you never saw the page.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CmdGet\StateRequest]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CurrentState]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
Means GUI is turned off. Changing to 00000001 should make it display.

Hi,
i am working now around 2 month on that.
Not the whole time ;-). But sometimes i
hacking my registry very deep and i find
some nice things.
MyFave can be found multiple times here
on XDA. So after my investigation in had
have a nive mY5 screen. Deinstalled yet,
but i think i will startup again to share some
things here !?....
Edit 16:06 - 30.09.2009:
Actually i working on it ;-). And you don't need the service from the great T.
I will prepare the app on a way that you don't need this service. On the TP2
teher is a favorite page but this is a nice to have page for TF3D.
