Ok, so i am using this really tight iPhone theme made with wisbar advance 2, and wisbar advance desktop.
Also, the slide 2 unlock is like version 2.16 or something. Ok. so here is my problems.
1. Comming back from the slider (and turning the phone on). "Notification Error.. Cannot execute \storage card\program file\lakeridge\wisbar advance desktop\wakeup.exe
2. I am loosing tons of battery life. I don't know what it is. I have the wisbar and everything with iphone theme running. i was at 100% this morning and about 8 hours later, 50%. Any way to change that. (I heard that the slider like is set to run in the background, or it is always running, so your screen never turns off... how do you fix that).
3. How can i change the slide 2 unlocks's settings? (i want the latest ones because they are better). but i don't know how to change it. There is not text file i can change. (like i want to turn off run in the background, and change the time format, and change the background image, change some other things like the thing that supposably eats up memory).
That's about it. The error and changing the slide 2 unlock.. if anybody knows please tell. I want to use this theme because its tight, but these problems like waisting tons of battery are annoying.
Thanks in advance.
Take a look at the readme.txt, it has a bunch of helpful information for the Slide2Unlock.
the read me tells you what the configurations mean..
Like turn animation on/off, would be 0 or 1.
except it does't say how to change them.
Try to install the wisbar softwares in the main memory of your device. I had the same problem before but since i moved (reinstalled) the softwares into my device memory (not in the removable one) the error notification disappeared.
Sorry my English is not so good...
Thanks I will definatly move my wisbar desktop and everything, yea, don't like that error message.
By the way, i downloaded a registry editor and changed the stuff with slide 2 unlock 2... so once i switch to main memory for the wisbar stuff... everything will work perfect thanks for the help.
Ummm... Yea, something is really weird now.
It still gives me the error that it cannot start the wakeup.exe in my storage card. I moved it to main memory, and deleted all the other folders for it in my storage card. hmmmm....
bump. anybody know how to fix the notification error sayign that it cannot excecute something in my storage card.. even though, i removed the program.. deleted everything else.. then reinstalled the program to main memory? really buggin me. if have the screen off for a while, and slide it.. it always give me the error.. and you can't do anything til you hit the tiny close button on it.
s2u2 .80 is working much better for me than slide2unlock. faster and a lot less memory loss. you should give it a shot.
im using s2u2 v .81 and same thing.
Ok, this is really messed up now. I thought you know, that it would be either wisbar advance 2, wisbar advance desktop, or s2u2... well i don't know what it is. I uninstalled all of them.. they are all off of my device right now, and i still get the error when i start up my phone. What is going on?
Seriously? is there some folders that i didn't delete or something (btw i deleted the "/Themes" folder, the "lakeridge" folder in the program files, and from before, the lakeridge folder in the storage card.).
somebody, its freakin me out?!
I think somewhere on the S2U posts, it says that it isn't compatible with WA2/3. Check out www.lakeridgesoftware.com too
i think i got the notification gone now. I installed pocket mechanic and searched for the path the notification it was givin me... and deleted it. haven't seen it since.
Okay guys... another thing wanted help on... If i push the weather button.. and go to a new page... how can i set it up to look like the iphone weather. Ive seen it done.. but can't figure out how to get it to work (they use like weatherpanel .... but like, i can't figure out how to customise it or anything). Btw, if you can get it to work with any other weather thing... that would work also.

The more i play with my MDA Vario, the more i get used to it, but the more i realise i'm a complete noob. I have been playing with/building/programing computers for years, but heldhelds are totally new to me.
I have had a look around, and this place seems to be where the pro's hang out. So could you kind people excuse my noobishness and answer some of my painfully noob questions?
I will start with...
1) Why don't programs actually seem to close when i 'close' them. Such as when i close Opera, yet it pops up again and again. I understand i can go into setting>system>memory and close running programs, but thats a pain to do all the time. So what the deal here?
2) At the top of my Today screen i have 5 larger icons accross the top which i would like to edit/remove/add new etc. I can go into settings>today>items and [un]check stuff that runs down the screen, but i cab't add new ones and can't see any options for the 5 larger icons at the top. Without instaling some kind of plugin, how can i change this?
EDIT: Ok, i see that 5 icons are part of something called just 'T-Mobile'. Any ides's how to change it and removing the pointless internet link thats that same os the hard button at the top of the MDA?
3) Is there an easy way to switch between running progams (like ALT+TAB in WinXP)?
To answer question 1 and 3:
Windows Mobile only minimizes programs by default. You can only close them, using the memory settings.
There are several Task-Manager and/or Close-Applications to override this "problem".
Some examples:
SPBPlus (www.spbsoftwarehouse.com)
Wisbar (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com)
SmallMenu (http://tillanosoft.com)
tMan (http://pda.jasnapaka.com)
vbar (http://vieka.com)
MagicButton (http://www.trancreative.com)
...
..
.
Just slap in a new rom or the customized T-Mo rom that's in the forums...
What do you want all the bloat that T-Mo (and all the carriers) put in?

Yes, I've searched, a lot...
Alright, I unstalled the T Zone app on my TMobile Wing. It seems to have left the t-zone.lnk file (which I think is the file that allows the link to exist in the system tray) in the \Windows directory... I can't delete it, and I can't get it out of my system tray. Says it is either in use, or not accesible for various reasons.
Is there an app to modify the system tray with? I don't want to remove it, but I would like to remove a few of the icons from it.
This is really irritating! Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
In fact, TZones has apparently left all kinds of crap all over my Wing. blargh. I can't figure out how to remove any of it.
I just finished going through my entire registry to find any tzone entries and see if I could find how the icon keeps showing up. No luck at all.
There has got to be a way to modify precisely what is and is not shown in the systray.
blah. Frustrating!
I'm sure it's in the registry somewhere. I'd love to figure out how to remove icons out of there ... like the annoying "music player" or whatever that shows up on the today screen whenever you hard reset your phone. It puts a little icon down there that's like a house with a little musical note over it ... which is the most annoying thing in the world, bc I never use it.
I like some of the other icons that show up down there, so I don't want to completely remove the sys tray ... so I wish one of the smarter-that-me people out there could figure this out! hah
I've been all through the registry with little success. We really do need someone with a lot more knowledge to help with this.

Yeah, I've gone thru the registry a million times, but I just end up getting lost and confused in there... not to mention not knowing so much about it, I'm a bit hesitant to make a lot of changes... but those settings HAVE to be in there somewhere.
what i ended up doing is deleting the whole tray, Deleting Launch 92 ( i think ) in the Startup Registry
i also want to remove specific icons, but not all... SUbscribed.
It seems they are just little number files but they won''t overwrite the existing files that are in the Windows directory.
Anyway I really like the look and wonder if there is a CAB type file that will install and voila, you have the Diamond look digital clock?
Anybody know of such a program?
Or a really simple set of instructions.
I followed the instructions and I can't get it to work.
Or how about a way to get the "Diamond" Digital Clock in to S2U2?
Help... help... help...
Hi Jim,
I was actually looking for quite some time and found a diamond digital clock cab. It was here in XDA but I cant find the thread I found it in (It was in the main hacking and development thread)
I'll just repost the cab file and hope I dont get reemed out. I take NO credit for makng this file what so ever.
I had tried installing it before on my vogue and it wasnt working then I upgraded my rom to 6.1 and figured Id give it a shot and it worked. I dont know if that had anything to do with it. it SHOULD still work in WM6 I just wasnt able to get it to work for some reason.
I think you have to disable HTC home as well too before you install the cab.
Nice find!
When I try to install on 6.1 it says "Installation unsuccessful". Any thoughts?
...Nevermind. For some reason it was copying itself when I put it on the sd card and one of the files was broken.
when you have it running is the clock in h:mm:ss tt format (ie 8:04 pm) or is it in hh:mm:ss tt (08:04 pm) I cant for the life of me get the zero infront of the single digit time (anywhere from 1-9 am or pm). just really erking me thats all. I had only installed this myself last night when I saw this thread asking for it so sort of a coincidence.
Anyway.. yeah let me know how your clock works and if you had to do something to fix it. I went into the regional settings and what not and changed the time format but still didnt change anything even after a reset.
For anyone who's installed the cab I posted and had the same issues I had (the 0 infront of the time (08:43 pm) then heres a quick fix I found in the hacking/development thread in the main forum.
Just copy the file in the zip file to your new HTC Home folder on your phone. Should be /HTCHome, sp right in the phones main directory alone with my documents and program files etc. If when you copy it over to replace the exsiting HH_Home_off. png in the folder it wont work go and disable the HTC Home plugin then copy it. That worked for me. Now I finally have a normal looking clock without always having to have 4 numbers showing.

I just installed and my text messages dont work. any idea?
Installed great! thanx a lot.
Since I installed this I can only select Bakersfield for my weather.
Anyone know a workaround?
Also this plugin severly lags my touch, anyone else?
Thanks.
diamond clock
So does anyone know of a diamond clock that actually flips like the real diamond clock?? All the skins for HTC HC are great but i would love to find something closer to the real deal.
Actually it doesn't lag anymore, but my weather is ONLY Bakersfield.
IS that with everyone else?

I had this same issue... What I had to do was uninstall it.. use the normal HTC home and reselect my city then reload on this updated version. Aparently all you have to do is add the XML of your city somewhere in the registy... I have no idea how so if anyone knows how feel free to let us know.
Since I did the steps above I havnt gone in to "Change city" anymore and it updates my city fine

I uninstalled and reinstalled and it worked as you said it did. However, when I changed it from Fahrenheit to Celcius thats when it updated to Bakersfield.
I can sort of understand Fahr, but Celcius would be much nicer. I think the benefit outweighs the cost so i'll use canada + fahr . Unless you know how to fix this.
Hi people,
I got a big problem regarding my XDA Nova.
I installed Touch Settings on it, but every time I put something in the mediahub (for example EyePhoto for pictures) and launch it, pimg.exe (pictures and videos) AND Eyephoto shows up. The same happens with every program. I read that I need to overwrite the mediahubmini.exe with the patched one, but I get an error if I do it. Already tried to stop the process with memmaid, but this doesnt work either. Cant overwrite/delete it.
I already did a hard reset but I did a softreset when it came to software branding, so I dont have any O2 programs on it. I dont think thats the cause but this may matter.
Thanks in advance
Try FdcSoft Task Manager to kill it.
Umm..I was able to kill the process mediahubmini.exe, but I still get an error if I try to overwrite it.
This is what it looks like
(sorry its German, I actually prefer English versions. It says something like:
Cant overwrite mediahubmini, make sure there is enough space and it is not write protected)
Is it possible that it cant be overwritten because it is write protected?
Is there a program like fileassassin for pocket PC?
Would there be a difference if I got myself a MDA Touch or VPA Touch?
Maybe it's locked 'cause it's system file. Try TotalCommander CE to delete "System" attribute and then delete it (using TotalCmd too). If it doesn't work, Resco Explorer should help.
I already had all this programs on my phone, but i'll try to get rid of the "system" thingy(dont know how to but ill figure it out)
So..I tried it with total commander and the picture shows what I found.
Seems to be burnt into the rom.
What do you think?
If others deleted it and it works, it will work for you too
P.S. You can use free Spb Screenshot to take screenshots of your display
Give me an example of someone who got it working on a XDA nova.
The next time ill get a genuine HTC Touch.
I really cant change the settings you see in the picture.
by the way: Using my camcorder is a bit faster
I think I found out why it didnt work.
This phone is not cid unlocked, so I couldnt flash mediahubmini.exe into the rom.
I gave it back after all..ill buy a real htc touch and cid unlock it.
Thanks for the help gronostaj
hi all
Im new to here but also just purchased a HTC Diamond Touch. I previously had a P3600i.
Im really liking the new TF3D program however there are a couple of things that are driving me mental. EG - calender not showing upcoming events...
Now im not to good at the understanding of tweaking programs etc however is there a way I can have this?
Also I have SPB Mobile Shell and I used this for a while. I love this program however find that the battery life is drained within a day of using this (something TF3D doesnt do). I tried to add a new skin last night but it didnt work and now im wondering whether im doing something wrong.
Is someone able to give me step by step instructions on either how i can tweak TF3D to give me upcoming calender dates or how I can add different skins....
Man i really do sound new!!
Hi Noobie!
See this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497197. It should tell you everything you need to know/have. I use it & it's great. I currently have an appointment on my today screen for 2 July.....
for themes.... some come in cab files and you should copy these to your internal storage and open it via file explorer
for .theme files.....
download TF3D configurator, download themes and put the .theme file into a folder somewhere on your internal storage..
when you open TF3D configurator, go to the second tab, and there's a drop down menu on the top right to select the folder where you're themes are, once you've selected a theme it'll give you the option to install it.... hey presto .... a new theme!
hope it helps
thanks so much! ill have a look at the other page and will have a go at the themes!!

Is it an HTC Touch Diamond? If so, then it should have enough space.
yeh its definately a diamond...hmmmm may have to try again. I found it wouldnt remove either so had to do a hard reset...
