How can I hide icons in the programs and settings panel.
In the programs panel they are links to applications,
have found the link files in \windows\startmenu\programs
folder but cannot delete them.
Is it possible to hide there icons?
Houser
If you want to remove them, try unregistering the dll.
If you want to hide it, one crufty hack I just tried is to parse into
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\
find the name of the icon you want to remove, and read its current group number (eg 0 = personal).
Now map Group to a non existent tab like 5, and it won't show up.
Let me know if smoke comes out of your phone!
V
Thanxs vijay555,
with unregistering the dll you mean the cpl file?
But not all have such a file.
It would be enough to hide them. Will try your hack.
Do you know how to remove links in the programs panel?
Houser
programs panel? /windows/menu start/programs....

hiding things in settings may work with empty key named "Redirect", but did not test it to be sure...

Hiding icon in controlpanel works with the reg hack.
Yes I mean /windows/menu start/programs.
There are link files to the app but they I cannot delete them
cause they are in rom.
Houser
Houser - the reg hack worked ok?
Which .lnks in the \start menu\ can't you delete? Can you list them by name - I think they can all be deleted can't they?
V
vijay555, the reg hack worked fine, nearly deleted all icon
in control panel coool
I mean the link files in the \windows\startmenu\programs directory.
Links from programs that are installed from user can be deleted
but not the links from programs that are in rom.
Houser
Houser - can you give an example of a .lnk that you can't move?
I can delete all of them, as far as I can see... Maybe I don't understand?
What's the name and path of a lnk you can't delete, and which app does it point to?
V
Hmmm strange I will try this tomorrow at work again.
Have tried to delete the file with ActiveSync connection
from desktop and got an error message file is protected or so.
Thanks so far, get back tomorrow.
Houser
Do it from the PPC using GSfinder etc.
V
Thanks that works!
Houser
vijay555, thanks for tip with "Group".
So when I change the Group entry how can I update the control panel
so that the icon is hidden immediately?
Houser
Generally can't, control panel is loaded and stays loaded in the system AFAIK. I imagine the control panel items only get parsed on the first load or an update. Closing the control panel crashes the shell.
Perhaps there's an API to send a sytem update, I can't remember...

I have tried an update with:
SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_WININICHANGE, 0xF2, 0)
But this had no effect on the control panel, only on today plugins.
Houser
I use Resco Explorer to hide the shortcuts, and it work great. It doesn't work for Settings either, but I'm not really concerned about hiding those icons.
I have managed it now not by hiding the icons but to protect the settings
behind the icons. So a user cannot access the settings that are protected
by an admin. Thanks.

hi there.. i've searched for long (google and here) and still haven't got any answer..
i was wondering how can i put or create my own control panel entry or how to move control panel applets say from System to Personal..
is it possible to place shortcuts to EXE files in the Control Panel/Settings applet?
i would like to place all configuration applications (S2u2 settings, FtouchFLO Config, Battery Status Config, etc) in the Control Panel, since these are all settings/configurations, i feel that they should be within the control panel in one place and not scattered among other programs.
also, i would like to move the SRS WOW and MEMORY applets to the personal tab, because i always use them.. it saves me more clicks..
thanks in advance and i hope someone can help me..
any files with exe etension wont appear in control panel only cpl extensions will appear
scousemartin said:

Click to expand...

aah.. ok.. thanks.. then how can i link cpl extensions to exes? because some (default) control panel entries (ctpnl.cpl) are actually linked to exes like Power, Backlight, Beam, Clock, etc (which are all in \Windows directory)..
is there a way to do the same?
also, how can i move (place into other tabs) some other 3rd party entries in the control panel?
i found in the registry (\HKLM\Control Panel\) that SOME entries can be moved, by changing the 'Group' DWORD vaue in each key(0=personal, 1=system, 2=Conn)..
though some are still missing, such as Clock, Add/Remove Programs, and 3rd party applets (except Wisbar's Theme manager applet)..
where can i find these entries?
also, thanks for the quick reply.. i was afraid that this li'l question will reach the second page without any replies at all..

Hi kabayan! just to clarify:
He wants to learn how to make a .cpl file that opens up an .exe file.
I would personally like to know how that's done myself. Maybe I'll try opening a cpl file in Notepad or something..
tried opening a cpl in notepad.. and.. uhhm.. it just shows garbage tetx.. i think it is not unicode or anything readable by notepad..

Hello,
I was also trying to add a new entry in Control Panel and followed your instruction... It worked, I made one shortcut appear in System tab, under Settings. However, I wanted it to appear in Connections tab. Already tried to add the following entries in registry, but it didn't work.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\APP_NAME]
"Group"=dword:00000002
Any ideas?
Can anyone please help?
Hi all.. i've searched for a while now and installed multiple plugins, but I still cannot add a "Programs" tab!! I want to be able to launch apps from titanium, is it possible?
I'm looking for the same thing - something to put my favorite apps on so I can launch directly from the Titanium panel.
I thought I saw something somewhere about this but now I can't find it. So I am looking too.....

You create a new panel, Launcher for ex., then you add a new page and you add as url a program, then you add another page with another program to launch and so on. Then you can swipe from one page to the next one and tap to launch the program you want. If there are too many favorite programs you could add instead a folder with all the programs in there, or launch a program launcher like iLaunch.
Just a few thought how i would do it.
This is most likely the way to do it:
ACTIONURL= Location of exe/ink/etc for the plugin when you press on the panel or press the center D-Pad Button (Example: ”\Windows\fexplorer.exe” to make the plugin open File Explorer)
SK1URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK1TEXT= The text displayed for the “Left Soft Key”.
SK2URL= Same as ACTIONURL, but for the “Right Soft Key”.
SK2TEXT= The text displayed for the “Right Soft Key”.
DefaultXML/ExtensibilityXML= Active plugins and their order. Also tells CHome which CPR’s to use (filename).
Creating a Programs Tab
From my findings, it seems you can achieve the result you are looking for by editing 3-4 files.
1. bronzeres.dll (this contains the icons for each program you want to launch)
2. Titanium_###x###.cpr files (2 if you have a landscape mode)
3. registry change
What you need to do is change everything that is set for the CWelcomeCenter and turn it into your programs panel. Look at this post for an example of my registry change .dll and .cpr files for an example. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3651793&postcount=78
Hope this helps in your search

Thanks for the summary - it makes it so much easier when you see it in a list like that. Just to add for completeness before 5. above
PICTURES= location of the graphic to be displayed in the panel eg. \My Documents\Car.png
TEXT1= Text you want to appear in the panel eg. Tom Tom Navigator.
It just looks better with these added rather than having a blank panel.

You are right, i tried also to create a new action url in the registry but it wont work....looks like hardwired as all standard titanium plugins.
Does that mean you have to edit the cpr file or something? I've never done that and don't think I know how or have to tools to do so...

To edit the cpr file you need only a Notepad text editor. But it is not that easy. In the cpr there are only specified layouts, fonts, colors, images, anything visual.
I guess the action url paths for the standard titanium panels are in the bronzeres.dll, but to edit it you need special tools to hack the resources. That is not at all easy, i would not touch that if you have not at least basic programming skills.
I would say I have basic programming skills. (VBA in Word and Outlook) Would I need some kind of program code editor, or is it something I could modify with notepad, or this XML notepad I just installed? I'd really like to get it to refer to my Chronos app instead of the default clock app.
thanks.

No it is no text file like the cpr or xml files, and therefore it cannot be edited with notepad. I am not sure what tools you have to use to modify dll files.

looks like this is correct as i set my right softkey to g-alarm and this also changed the action when selecting the clock. Checked out this reg key and its linked to g-alarm so prob correct. Finally the answer for you.
yes lioryte is correct, that is how I got it to associate with Samsung clock lol.
Opening Chronos via tap of the clock panel:
...well, Chronos.exe is located in Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe
None of these work for MSClock/1:
Chronos.exe
Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe
/Program Files/Chrono/Chronos.exe
They give me the messege, "The file Chronos cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or ..."
If I move the executable Chronos.exe from Program Files into Windows, it does open up Chronos, but this sounds like it would cause other problems with the program???
Is there some other value I could asign to MSClock/1 to lead to /Program Files/Chronos/Chronos.exe?
Is it alright to just move that .exe???
try just making a shortcut to the .exe in windows and then put chronos.lnk in the reg..
Oh, I tried that too...
Using total commander, I create a shortcut 'chrono.lnk' in the window dir that pointed to \program files\chronos\chronos.exe, and set it for the value of MSClock/1, but it too would give me an error.
AH, I got it!
use quotes.
"\Program Files/Chronos/...
include the quotes in the value
More specifically:
"\Windows\ChronosStartup.exe" alarms
"\Windows\ChronosStartup.exe" Timers
...these work for right soft key, & MSClock
Hi,
As part of my customization process, I would like to disable some icons from the Setting menu's of WM6.5 (not TouchFlo).
I managed to remove a lot of icons through the registry settings in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Speech, by moving them to a non-existing group (Group=3). This works fine.
However, some of the icons in Settings/System do not appear below this registry key, such as External GPS, Encryption, Remove programs... Is there a way to remove these as well?
Alternatively, removing the entire Settings menu would also be fine. My first approach, deleting the Settings folder from \Windows\StartMenu causes the entire Start Menu to appear empty!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
UPDATE: I managed to remove the Encryption icon by ADDING an 'Encryption' key to the ControlPanel part of the registry. Other icons I haven't so far. I suppose the key lies in correct names.
How can I obtain the names for:
Managed Programs
External GPS
Error reports
Memory
Info
Country Settings
Regional Settings
Microsoft My PHone
Remove programs
Screen
Task Manager
Connection settings
??
Setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo:HideSettings to 1 hides the Settings folder from the Start Menu. That fixes my problem for now!
I rather choose to "hide" my icons.
You can do this by changing the registry like this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Encryption]
"Group"=dword:00000002
"Hide"=dword:00000001
This will hide the Encrption icon in the Settings panel. I use this on the Rhodium, Blackstone, Diamond etc. but it should also work on the HD2 I guess
mccune,
The "hide" could be done for entries that are present in HKLM\ControlPanel like Encryption. For those entries that DO NOT EXIST in ControlPanel but whose icons appear in Settings like "Microsoft My Phone", do you have any idea how to suppress them?
Thanks for your assistance.
Noticed there are also some numbers in that registry key. Guess you'll have to trial and error a little to see what number corresponds to what icon.
I'm still looking for a way to hide the "Managed Programs" icon ;-)
Perhaps this program can help you out.....either hide the icons or put them away in a folder......
This program only applies to WM6.5 and also just to the Start Menu. It's fairly easy to remove icons from the Start Menu, just delete the LNK file in \Windows\Start Menu\
The discussion was about the icons in Settings. Most of these files are CPL files.
mccune,
It's exactly that! The file underlying that icon is Windows\MyPhoneLauncher.cpl for the application "Microsoft My Phone". I tried a number of ways to rename the file, rename the extension CPL in CPL2, move the file to other folder, even delete the file in order to remove it from Settings/System but always failed.
The file appears protected as part of the ROM. This is the 2nd day I'm after this problem and I still see no light...
(I tried to use the tool JWMDIconChanger but it doesn't work. Thanks anyway.)

Does anyone know the name of the .cpl file, or the name of the registry key in \HKey_Local_Machine\ControlPanel\, for "Managed Programs"?

Hi All,
I have written this little tutorial by piecing togethor bits of info from other forums and threads. Some of you will probably know this already but this is for those who are struggling:
To get the g sensor rotating any application that doesnt do so already you will need to edit the registry on your device.
Using your preferred registry editor navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Here you must create a new string value. The name of your string is whatever you want it to be. The value of your string would be the path to the exe of the program you wish to rotate.
Once this is done you must then navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Here you must again create a new string value.
The name again is whatever you want it to be... the value would be the class name of the application you are attempting to rotate.
For example.... to get excel rotating with the G sensor:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Create new string value... i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
windows\pxl.exe
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Create new string value... again i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
BOOKWIN
Create second new string value... i named it Excel Mobile2. Value is:
PXLMainWnd
Exit your registry editor and soft reset the device. Job done. Excel will now rotate within the open file browser (PXLMainWnd) and also within any open workbook (BOOKWIN)
For any particular app you should be able to figure out what the full path is to your exe but to get class names use dotfreds task manager:
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Once the task manager is installed.... start your app... then start the task manger... go to applications tab and long press on your app which will be listed if it is still running... select details. Go to the windows tab... this screen will list all of the classes currently accessed by your app. Ususally the ones to add into the whitelist will be the ones that are preceded by the app name but not always.
To get you guys started here are the settings for word:
windows\pword.exe
and you need to add two classes to the white list:
WordPad
Pocket Word
Remember that class names are case sensitive.

thank you, and take your time =) btw, I just wanna be clear that I didn't mean the messaging tab on the home/sense screen, I meant the default win6.5 screen.
Thanks for this post, I am trying to find the details for a new app called DynaInk. I've followed your instructions and I am about to see if it worked?
*** Drum Roll ***
It worked, I used #NETCF_AGL_BASE_
Thank You
I applied this trick for Notepad which is a simple text editor that doesn't even require installation:
http://www.shamasis.net/projects/notepad-mobile/
After installing Dotfred's Task manager it showed me several string values for Notepad.exe and one of them was same as Nighthawk's DynaInk: #NETCF_AGL_BASE_ so I added it for my Notepad.exe.
Now it rotates with G-sensor
Thank you, Audio Oblivion for this guide!
p.s. What kind of damage to the device could possibly be done by adding those strings with those values? One could delete them if there's no result ?!?
Great post, works very well except for 1 program.
Perhaps you can help me out with the class name of TomeRaider3.
Program is TomeRaider3AU.exe, but for the Whitelist entry I always get different ClassNames when I start it as just like: "Afx:83ab6eaa:0, next time I get Afx:d54d7832:0, and so on.
Can anyone please help me out with this ?
many thanx in advance
Edit: Found the solution. I have added a ModuleName Wikipedia with Value "\Programme\TomeRaider3\Wikipedia.tr3 and a Whitelist entry for Wikipedia called "Dialog", for the Whitelist entry of TomeRaider I also used "Dialog", now it works very well.

I launched the default wnimo messaging screen and saw a process called tmail.exe appear.
search for tmail.exe on you device and use its full path as the module name. its probably windows\tmail.exe
for class entry in whitelist try: Dialog
If thats not it then start messaging, lauch dotfreds task manager, long key press on tmail.exe... click on windows and try every class you see!
I have now found that gyrator works quite well if you want EVERY screen on your device to rotate with the acceleromter... however... even though it is set to rotate everything... not all windows work. I still had to add in certain aspects of SPB shell to the whitelist for instance. Also... HTC Sense homescreen doesnt like being rotated.

You wont damage your device if you follow my instructions carefully. The values you are changing are safe to add, delete and edit at any time (although dont touch what is already in the registry before you started adding to it). The discalimer is there in case someone messes up their registry by doing something incorrectly!
What about the programs that have the same Class name eg. "Dialog".
As i noticed it's enough to add process name to ModuleName or Class Name to WhiteList. No need to put both.
Better to use ModuleName if you have several applications that both have eg "Dialog" but one of them you do not want to rotate.
Eg. Nimbuzz - Dialog, HTC phone app - also Dialog. I do not want to rotate Phone So for me works only the ModuleName for the Nimbuzz.
For other apss I only include data to whitelist In fact there is two lists - by process name and by Window class...
Is there a similar way to enable the "Pinch to Zoom" feature for programs by just adding the programm to some registry entries?
TomTom
This is great

Not working
Hi all,
I have tried to apply this procedure but my applications still do not rotate.
I have tried both modifying the registry by hand, and using BsB Tweaks to rotate Excel but with no success. Any suggestions to share?
EDIT: I have tried disabling and re-enabling the Rotate feature (AutoRotation -> 0 -> 1), resetting the phone after each change, and now NO APPLICATION will rotate: not even HTC messaging nor the Sense Pictures tab.
HELP!!!!
EDIT 2: Solved! I've just found out by pure chance that rotating works only counterclockwise, while I assumed it should work both ways!
