Where does that registry entry come from? I'm using WM6 and just can't find it in my registry.

How do I remap the PocketIE button on Exec/Jasjar

Got my new XDA Exec today. Keyboard has a button with the Internet Explorer icon on. When I press it I'm taken to http://pda.o2.co.uk/ which is about as much use as tits on a kipper.
Is there any way to reprogram this key to something more useful? Like Google or something? It doesn't appear in the list of programmable buttons in the control panel Buttons applet.
Perhaps it's a registry entry. If so, can anybody suggest a (free) WM2005-compatible registry editor?
TIA
Not sure about the Exec, but this was the registry edit for the JasJar:
Change hardware PIE behavior:
Go to - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\OEM\Keybd
Change the string called PieHomePage to the website address of your choice.
If you don't want it to do anything but go back to the spot in IE you left off -
Just edit the dword so that it is blank.
Bonza! That looks about right. Thanks for the info, galt. I'll check it out when I get into the registry.
Now, I just need a registry editor for WM2005. Can anybody suggest one?
Tre. It's freeware.

Nice one! Thank you galt and lautunno: I've installed Tre and fixed that registry value and it's sorted! Thanks for your help.

How can I add or delete an icon on the taskbar?

How can I add or delete an icon on the taskbar?
I wanted to remove the icon for manual screen rotation and I want to add some other stuff.
To remove the rotate screen icon goto the registry,
HKey_Local_Mchine\Services\ScreenRotate
change the ShowIcon Value to 0, reboot and it wont be there.
Thanks carnivor. I tried this suggestion from the WiKi, but this did not work for me:
To hide the screen rotation icon:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ROTATION\HideOrientationUI = 1
I'll try your suggestion. How about adding an icon on the taskbar?
cktlcmd: you want to check out PHM Tray Launch to add icons to the tray. There are other commercial solutions as well. And someone else, I forget who, made one called VJTrayLaunch, but it's not very good or recommended over the other offerings.
PHM's website may be down, but I've attached a zip somewhere in a Wizard thread on pop up keyboards. Prize if you can find it.

Thanks Vijay555. I did found PHM Power Toys which included PHM Tray Launch. I just don't know how to install only the PHM tray launch though. I don't want the other clutter. Here is a link: http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmpocketpcpowertoys.shtml
Another question please. How do you use PHM Tray launch?
SBSH's iLauncher puts icons in the tray. Definitely the easiest to use (I found the PHM software a bit fiddly and the icons didn't render well) but you do have to pay for it...

Does iLauncher causes any slow downs on the Universal? Can I install it on my SD card or does it have to stay on internal memory?
howsitgoin people
I have located the battericon and screen rotation icone removal, anybody know where the wireless connection removal setting is in the registry.
RE
Hi cktlcmd,
To use PHM TrayLaunch
1) Install PowerToys and copy traylnch.exe out.
2) Remove PowerToys if don't require
3) Put back traylnch.exe and run it
One catch. After each soft reset you'll have to re-activate traylaunch. Any attempt to put in StartUp results in icons not displaying its original self ie. 'Notes-like' icons will be displayed instead.
wiki now updated with all three regedits to do remove the taskbar from the today screen. by removing the icons, the bar is gone by default.

normally on the "Today" screen we can see "Conn. Manager" and "Battery" icons above the "Contacts" button.
the problem is that how to add/delete other shortcut icons in this tray, like File Explorer or Memory Status.

PHM Tray Launch. SPB also does one. I've got VJTrayLaunch, a very very simple one.

Dear All
Do you know how can I lunch the "VJTrayLaunch" ?
You have to edit the shortcut to point to your installation folder.
My shortcuts point to \program files\....
If you're not using English OS, it may have a different name.
Find where you installed it and make new shortcuts.

Custom clock shortcut

I am trying to add a shortcut for the Clocks and Alarms on the tray. I added \Windows\clock.exe to PHM Traylaunch and it works fine but lacks the clock logo.
I then created a custom shortcut file with:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,16,2?
This works as well but lacks the icon. I then tried this:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,16,2?\Windows\clock.exe,0
Which didn't help either. How do I get a clock logo for this?
Also, want to remove the comm manager in the tray. I tired deleting Init_Tray and adding Power.exe and Power_Tray.exe to the TrayLaunch but it just displays a generic static battery icon. Any ideas on how to add the batery without the Init_Tray file?
Thanks!
Would this work for what you're needing??

If you checked clock.exe with a resource viewer you would see that it has no icon. I think the icon you want is in the control panel applet cplmain.cpl but for some reason these icons are not useable outside of settings.
Find an ico or exe with a suitable icon and use that. If you want i will provide you one and the resource viewer.

I downloaded that and made a new shortcut with:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,16,2?\Windows\clock.bmp,0
I then copied clock.bmp to the windows directory and placed my new shortcut, alarm.ink, into windows/startmenu/programs but still no logo. Maybe I have a misunderstanding of creating shortcuts, but shouldn't this work?
Use this small exe - place it in \program files or other folder will give you an icon = use clock2.exe,0
edit made a link for you unzip the file.
Place clock2.exe in \program files and this will work :wink:

Thank you so much for this! I placed the Clock_alarm.ink in windows\start menu\programs. When I go to the program screen, it's there, with the logo and works as it should.
I then started PHM Traylaunch and added :
\windows\start menu\programs\clock_alarm.ink
it then shows up as a file instead of the logo in the tray and when I click on it an error syas that it can't be opened.
I think I must be doing something wrong that's completely obvious and stupid, but I just can't wrap my head around it.
Try putting the lnk in \program files and adding to traylaunch - perhaps it does not like linking to the start menu in your device.
Also where is your phm traylaunch installed? - should be in main memory not storage card.
I copied to Program Files (where traylaunch is stored) and I still have the same problem. I can add any exe file with no problem, it just seems that traylaunch will not allow Ink files?

Interesting - it works with mine no problem - what device and rom are you using? Mine worked better when I upgraded to aku2 rom.
Just spotted something you are writing ink it should be lnk, an L not an I!
Remeber when I said it was probably something stupid and obvious? I was using .ink (Ink) instead of .lnk (Lnk).
Thank you very much for all your help!

I'll attach a good resource viewer for checking out icons in exe's, dll's and cpl's

T-zone tray icon

Is there any way to remove the t-zones icon from the tray box above the softkeys because i do not use t-zones and i always accidently click it on my wing
from http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1172596&page=3&pp=15&highlight=remove+t-zones+icon
*Tray icons
-Edit registry as follows:
[HKLM\init]
Launch92=
(delete TrayAp.exe)
-Or, if you want to keep some but not all of the icons:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet]
There you'll find listings for each icon (the folders are for the WinWap, MyFaves, and CommManager tray icons). Remove the ones you don't want and soft reset. If you remove the music player settings, you will then have to uncheck the plug-in from Today items.
yeah i tried that but still the t-zone icon is still in the tray
Does anyone know of a good *FREE* registry editor for the wing? Thanks in advance.
I use one called mobile registry editor:
http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx
works great so far on both tmobile MDA and Wing although you'll have to install the microsoft .net framework.
registry edit did not work any suggestions?
Heres what I do
I dont like those little guys there.
it is.
HKLM> Software> HTC> Initial Tray
you can remove any one individually, I just leave on the battery and the device lock,
good free reg edit is PHM regedit
