I have noticed that the link/app behind the IE button on the iMate JASJAR has embedded the www.clubimate.com link and every time you click the button it tries to open up that site. I want to change that so that it acts like the IE icon does on the start menu so that the web page I have up does not get overwritten. The site is not the home page defined in IE because I have already changed that. I am guessing that they have it as a parameter passed on the command line in the button. The button applet does not even have that button as one that can be touched. Anyone know what part of the registry to look at?
Thanks

Get a registry editor.
Go to - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\OEM\Keybd
Change the string called PieHomePage to the website address of your choice.
rilot, is there anyway to make the button NOT go to any website? I just want it to switch me back to PIE without changing the page I was browsing.
For example, I'm looking at a web page, and decide to go check my mail by hitting the messaging button - then viewing my mail. Then, when I press the Internet Explorer button I just want to go back to the same spot I left in the browser, not launch any page at all. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Just edit the dword so that it is blank.
Works fine, just tested it.
For the MDA Pro from T-Mobile (Germany) the registry key is different:
\HKLM\software\HTC\PIEPlug\home
internet key
how to disable the key at all, or better to make it a "space" key?
It's just next to "space" in my T-Mobile MDA pro and I can't stand it goes on the net each time I press it by chance typing!!!
thks
Does anyone know how to turn off the stupid "You are about to go online" message everytime u press the button on the MDA? :roll:
You say reg edit?? How do you do this?

You should put them in the memory cord of your phone, then click them from there.
The .CAB files should be installed FROM THE PHONE.
goodluck
Hey great work with the hacks
Thanx for sharing
Used the Soft Key app & it works great. cheers.
Problem sorted
Or some reason when I was downloading the files they were changing to .php not .cab. So with a quick change of name all working fine.
Anyone know how to change internet explorer reg back to original settings?
cheers
Dear yohanson,
Most of the tweaks for pocket ie can be easily changable within pocket ie by options menu...
Regards and thanks...
protochip,
great works !!! thanks for the "compilation"
Manage to installed :
DSP ENCHANCER -BASS&TREBLE SETTINGS
* Works very well.
SHOW CONTACTS FIRST NAME SURNAME ORDER
* Works very well.
POCKET IE TWEAKS
* Can't find where to do the changes. Unable to find the new setting in IE menu.
cheers,
Simon
brilliant
Dear simontee,
After applying pocket ie hacks there will be no new menu.I meant that if you want to go back,you can change some of the tweaks within pocket ie.For example you can change the zoom setting to larger or make fit to desktop from the menu of pocket ie.But other tweaks are directly written to registry ( cleartype, pocket ie as msie6.0, ... )
Regards and thanks...
Nice work will give them a try on my BA...

Hello
I just flashed my 9100 with the new ROM and in commmanager, I can't activate ActiveSync (button is "grey")
Has someone already had/solved this problem ?
Tks
Hi, I am looking for this Comm Manager file, can you extract the .exe from the ROM (use Total Commander and copy it out of the /Windows folder) and post it here? thanks!
read the same problem you are having in another ROM, are you sure that you are connected with your dekstop? If you are not, the button is grey sometimes.
The button is grey when I'm connected or not to the PC.
3 buttons (push mail, connect, activeSync) are grey. I can only use the "phone", "bluetooth", "WiFi" and "Vibrate/Normal" buttons but not the other one.
Here is also the "CommManager.exe" program
Have you tried adapting the registry to point to the right files? In the universal upgrading forum there is a thread on which settings to adjust. try a search there and see if it htelps you. I will try the file you attached (thanks for that) tomorrow and see if it works for me.
Any other answer ?
See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44091&highlight= for the registry settings used in the Universal to get the new Comm Manager with more options working. perhaps on your Wizard it uses the same settings?
If you connect To your PC, the AS icon becomes available, whenb you connect to gprs/edge, the disconnect data service becomes available and when pushmail is enabled, you can disable with the stop direct push button... works like a charm.
Why would you want a comm manager button to activate either one of these, for it happens automatically when any service requires so.
In the "old"Comm Manager you could also change the AS settings by tapping th AS symbol, even if the device was not connected. Now with the button greyed out, I guess he has to go to start-programs-AS to change them. possible, but not as easy. And it is nice to have all connections under 1 button. That's why I am trying to integrate the new file into my old ROM.
Ok, tried overwriting the old comm manager with the exe provided above, but no dice. The .exe in this thread is only half the size of my current working one. Also, the registry settings I got from the Universal forum don't work, we don't have the necessary keys, so looks like our Comm Manager is working with different keys, I cannot find which ones. The .exe file above just gives: Unable to get comm Manager settings. Perhaps someone can extract and post all the Comm Manager files ( not only the .exe) from their ROM?
For me the important one was ActiveSync. I'm used to lauch it via Comm Manager. And you are right :
- push e-mail is not available (-> OK)
- activeSync is available only if ActiveSync is running
- disconnect data service is available if GPRS is connected (I didn't know what it was, I could'nt test)
So ewerything is running all right. :-D
Thanks
I ran a TMO USA cab for the Comm Manager from an Ext ROM. I found the file on this forum and it is working right. It has the phone button instead of the sound/vibrate button, so that is a small improvement. If only someone could send me the file with also the direct push and gprs button in it, i'd be happy.
how to create a link from commanager that can run only one function，For example open WIFI or clos Bluetooth.I mean I don't want every time to run commanager,only run a link to achieve.sory for my english and thank you.
Turning Wifi on and off in one click would be useful to me too
You can press on the GPRS icon and turn Wifi from there but its too small & uncomfortable
Because I use Spb Mobile Shell and I don't use Today so I create a page which I put links to achieve commanager's function.
there is a software called VJoublis..map it to your button..or make a shortcut to it and map it to any of the Icons and your done
also there is a thread here called "List of .lnks"...it has the shortcut number to Toggle ON/OFF GPRS,WIFI,BT and much more

thank you i'll try it,but i'd like to know what's the commanager's shortcut parameter,how can tell me
i dont think its possible because CommManager is a seperate EXE...but you could try looking in the Registery, perhaps thereis some info
"Battery status" has this feature in it's tray launch, I use this with large icons in "second today".
You could also try FtouchSL and use the active corners.
Holding a corner of the screen for say, a second, could turn on/off Wifi and same with bluetooth.
Does anyone know how to disconec 3g/gprs in today screen
when i use tytn2..i just klick(touch) 3G/GPRS icon to disconect my conection
but when i use xperia i can't find icon disconec in 3G or GPRS icon...
sory my english very bad...
my problem when i conected gprs or 3g and
i want to disconect my conection...
my step so long ...click signal icon--and i go to com manager - >data conection ->turn off
but when i use other pda(tytn2) i just clik 3g icon and just click disconect to end my conection...
There's a tool which involves a similar procedure but which will Close (unlike the ConMgr) properly and release RAM.
Go to /Windows where you will find DataDisconnect.exe. Copy this and Paste a shortcut to /Windows/Startmenu/Programs and then place it wherever you like. For example:
-Today-Plugin Launcher, such as the one included with Resco Explorer
-Startmenu
-Softkey
This is the fastest and best way I know to disconnect.
use sk tools to solve your problem
to solve your problem, just do a search in this forum for SK Tools.
install this to your phone/ sd card (up to you). within this program there is a tab called tune up, and withn this tab there is another tab that allows you to enable a "Disconnect Button" that shows when you select the 3g/GPRS icon.
just to clicks and your done...
Problem Solved

Spotted this in another thread - there's a registry hack you need to bring the disconnect button into the balloon:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone
create new dword value "Flags2"
value=8 show disconnect button
value=16 show disconnect button and connection time
Try that.

Seen this before. It doesn't work on my X1. The Button is supposed to be shown in the bubble that appears when you tap on the Signal Icon right?
