How can I shutdown the 02 Active application? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

I started the 02 active application on my O2 XDA Exec but i now want to close it.
How can I do this?
There doesn't appear to be an obvious way to shut it down

go into programs. find install type icon. click it
click basic then o.k.

ok, thanks that did the job

if you are talking abou the o2 active today plugin thingy then when you are on the today screen and its on if you press the 'q' key on the keyboard it will get rig of it.

Silly O2 icon on task bar

o2 icon
no probs........here 2 help
You can actually just tap and hold for a second or so on the icon, and a menu appears with a slide bar...letting you move the icon wherever you want it, that's if you want to keep it anyway.
I just cancelled the install of that all that O2 Active rubbish.
As I've stated before in here, I quite like the version that's on the 2i as it allows you to have different themes without it looking crap. Some of the features on this version are quite useful as well.
I've always wanted a screen that makes use of all aspects of the screen as it would a normal Nokia mobile, for example with battery life up the side and signal strength up the other, with some space to actually show the picture you've chosen.
I don't suppose anyone's found anything like that recently have they? I gave up looking 6 months ago!

sms from keyboard

Hi , I would like to know if anybody figured out when sending an email or SMS how to go from "To:" to the actual message you will type without touching the screen ?
The Tab key didn't work for me .
Doesn't the down arrow do it? Works for me.
V
Both Tab and the Down arrow work for me. Just tried.
Press Message button to go to Pocket Outlook.
Tap LHS soft key to select New
Type first few letters of contact's name.
When number is suggested, press down arrow to select number.
Press Enter to fill in the number.
Press Tab to move to message area.
Type message
nope it doesn't on my xda exec, if I press the down arrow, the scroll bar will go down but the cursor is still on the "to:"
I dont' have a scrollbar anywhere on the New Message screen. I'm running in VGA landscape mode though. Maybe that's the difference.
Doesn't Tab work?
nope the tab + down key didn't work, it will go down on the scroll bar but the cursor will still be on on the "to:"
You said you were on VGA landscape mode, is it with ozvga ? or did you have asetting on the phone itself ?

Yeah - it's OzVGA.
Man, it would be really annoying if I had to use the stylus to create SMS. This is the biggest benefit for me: Doing (almost) everything in the system using only the keyboard. I hope you find a solution soon.
yeah, I just have to use my dirty fingers to put the cursor in the right place :?
One quick question, I have some app like wisbar/ netfront 3.3 in VGA already, if I install ozvga will it miss it up or they will still look the same ?
Or maybe there is only one way to find out.... :wink:
If you're using WA2 with OzVGA, you'll have to switch to a QVGA version of your Wisbar theme, otherwise it'll all go very weird. Not too much of a problem though, it just takes up a bit more space in your Themes folder having two versions of the same theme, and you need to switch them manually in WA2 when you switch resolutions.
This is because the system uses 96dpi (QVGA) icons, toolbars, fonts, etc, etc when running OzVGA.
thanks, I'll have a go.
still playing with it, just wait on an update so the phone can have a decent response time, miss my xdaIIs for that but, it is another subject 8)
Still love it BTW!
jeux_1, i have the same exact issue. It was driving my pretty crazy, but it helps to know someone else has this issue. Have you found a fix?
For the last three weeks, I was using the keyboard to write SMS, and my TAB key was moving the cursor from 'To' to the body of the message...
And now, suddenly, it does only a scroll down, like the down arrow, but stay in the 'To' field... :?
Any idea :?: it's really annoying....
Does anybody have an idea about that :?:
I think it is a bug for the O2 EXEC, my friend have an Orange one and work works fine.
I don't think there is a solution and it is a bug on the O2 one. Any of you guys can confirm ?
There is as well a new guy with a new Rom I will ask him if he has the same issue.
Actually, I use a Qtek 9000, different ROM
And it was working for at least three weeks... and now, it does'nt work anymore... smth changed, but I cannot find out what
here goes my theory..... :?
Ok, I found the solution.... my TAB key works again..
The problem came from Tweaks2k2 .NET, version 3.15... as soon as I apply changes with it, the TAB behavior changes... :evil:

auto keypad lock?

Hi

Then look for the DeviceLock CAB file and assign it to a hardware button so you can remove it from the Today Screen (just like I did last week ).
Did a search for that cab file, but didnt find it. Where is it supposed to be?
/d
i used vjkeypress with the link -133 which will lock the device and assined it to my comm butten because i don´t use it that often and have it in my tray also
I cant seem to install the devicelock.cab on my Blue Angel ... is it because it wont run on WM2003 or some other reason maybe.
Does anybody know about another program for key locking the BA?
Cheers

HELP! Half-bricked MDA compact III (Artemis)?

Hi out there!
Since Friday, I'm a proud owner of a T-Mobile MDA compact III
And today I upgraded my radio to v02.94.90 with USPL
I got v02.94.90 on it and it booted up *uh* But since the update I noticed, that my Settings-Window in WM5 seems to be damaged
I can open, view and scroll the Settings-Window. But I can't open any items, I cant close it via the x-button and i cant browse the tabs on the bottom (system, connections). I can only exit the window by using the red phone-button. Seems to me, that the window is frozen.
Hint: If I open the start menu and then click on a different spot on my screen (not on something in the start menu), the menu usually will disappear. But not for me: Then the start menu will stay, but you cant access anything. Looks for me, that the window behind that (the settings window) is crashed :-/
Can anyone help! Please!
Did you try an hardreset.
You can do that while holding the two software buttons and pushing the softreset. Then a screen comes up where you have to push the green phone .
With a little luck it helps.
If not - you have to try the bootloader procedure - search for it in this forum.
If you need the bootloader modus look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306904
Sorry for the late reply!
Some softresets helped out for me. That is not really satisfying. But my Artemis is working (huu).
Sometimes I get an error. The message sounded something like this "... found an error in the shell. The shell needs to be restarted...". If I tab Ok, my device reboots and works fine then. I wonder whats this about??

That Blue is really boring to me...
Great program, i'll test it soom...
So I decided to play around with this for a minute to see how well it works....I'm pretty bored at work. Anyway, i installed pontui home and it works pretty nice. I also installed OTO on touch task and calandar program. Once i did this on my bottom bar where i have my contacts and calandar, the calandar button now says HOME but still activates the calandar. I removed and deleted both programs to see if i could figure it out and it continues to say HOME. I did a soft reset and still nothing. Any ideas?
correction..... The home button actually prompts pontui to start and once activated, if you press the button again it prompts the calander. I want my calander button to prompt the calandar not the program. anyone with experience?
after installing pointui.
hkcu\software\microsoft\today\keys\112
default = calandar
open = \windows\calandar.exe
but then you have to choose point.ui somewhere else on a button or put a link into
\windows\startup
btw - after editing the key -powercycle (3 sec push power and say yes)

i'm running the stock t-mo ruu without the t-mo customizations
and after 5 reboots (to make sure ram use is consistent) i show 4 megs of use (from 16mb down to 12mb) the program works very well but there is room for improvement, ie you cannot shutdown programs only minimize them. one thing i really like is that the weather feature works fine with the 5.99 proxy, there is no need to set it up, it works right off the bat. i suggest you give it a try.
You CAN shut them down, when app is opened, just press the top bar,
there you can choose Force Close, only counterpart is that .Home
goes back to your normal Today-Screen
In thier forum they have a link to download a modified .exe for the app that closes applications instead of minimizing them. Them forum link is here
