How can I remove the bottom try on my today screen? The one that has the battery / comm manager icon?
Thanks in advance
go to \Windows\Start up\ and remove/move the "initTray"
Thanks... I should have searched first... I found it in 2 seconds.
WOW that worked great... Thanks you for that... it was something I have been looking for.
now for another question... how to I remove the top bar all together, or the bottom bar for that matter?
I was hoping I could get just a bottom bar that worked a little like the taskbar in windows. One not 2 bars to take up the main screen. I would be fine with removing either but I just feel that having both is TOOOO Much and just not required.
Thanks,
SuPerSoBBie
OK well first of all thank you for the info again... I have removed it and it was gone when I restarted my 8125.... but every time I plug it into the USB it pops back up and covers some of my screen.
??? any clue how to stop that ... along with my previous question?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
probably not. or use WAD to.
probably not... is that for both the remove bottom bar and the USB questions? I suppose I shouldn't have asked soo many questions at once. It just confuses me
Well either way Thanks nothin (did you notice I didnt use FOR in that statment)... and I have seen WAD but didnt really want to run such a bulky app. I was hope I could do it with reg or file manipulation. Oh Well...
Thanks again for your help.

hmmm, on second thought it may be possible, but cant check right now..
install vjtoggletoday, then go to its registry and try set "trayvisible" to 0...
(sorry for my funny english..)...
nothin... Thanks again for your responce. I do appreciate it. I just got VJToggle to give it a try. I find that it does remove the bottom bar and the top fine... but I am still having the problem when I sync my PDA the bar returns across the bottom of the screen. Sorry dont have a screen shot but here is what I see:
-----------------------------
STARTButton###########
TODAY PLUGINS
############sync icon##
TODAY PLUGIN (2 lines)
-----------------------------
When I softreset it is all gone (the way I want it) but when I plug into USB the sync icon taskbar returns.
Can this be completely removed where it does not come back. I am going to look into tweaking the sync program... maybe I can turn off the show icon in taskbar or something.
Thanks again for you help..

Are you using a program that allows you to control your wizard from your pc? I can't remember the name of it right now, but when I used it it would cause the system tray to come back.

Remove them or change them? There aer a million soft key changers
I would just like to either hide it or remove it from my today screen. i use the HTC Home plugin which doesnt give me much space at the bottom for the rest of the plugins. the Calendar Contacts bar at the bottom takes up space that i would like to use for plugins
I'd like to get rid of this bottom bar as well and cannot find a way ... I'd like to be able to hide the top start bar as well.
Here is the wisdom with which you seek:
Just place the .exe file in your Windows/Startup folder on your phone, reboot and your bar will be gone.
Go and sin no more.

Great little tweek really cleans up my Today screen!
Great, i was looking for a tweak to this too. Thanks a bunch.
Anyone know a hack to keep all of WM6 in full screen mode?
I'd like all apps to behave like PIE in full screen mode. The start bar and bottom bar remain hidden until you press a hard button.
Any ideas?
Thx for this!
OMFG! I'm the FIRST person to comment on this in over FOUR YEARS?! lol Still rollin with the Titan (Mogul)! Old School to the Core, I am! tried various other botom bar hiders/removers. I think the Today Shrink 1 got rid of my sms altogether!
(or maybe the culprit was the patched M2D I tried to install.) Either way, after that little fiasco I trusted NEITHER ONE! thx much for this tiny tool. - The Jackal
I could easily give some money if someone could make a program for making the bottom menu bar to hide and pressing like the big round bottom on phone would make it visible again. It would give alot more screen space for alot of programs, like writing sms etc.
It would be really great, I bet alot of people would like it to and also pay for it!
thanks

Great
It would be really good removing it, having more screen space like opera when browsing it goes to fullscreen and pressing on the screen will make the bar's and menues apear again. Something like that would be great for the rest of the phone!
Ok ill give 200sek for the one that fixes this mod!
hiding top and bottom menus! And makes them appear when wanted!
Questions? ask!
you can do that with vjtoggletoday (www.vijay555.com) and a tool for setting registry keys (the guy who has written batterystatus has also written such a tool).
create a lnk file with the desired settings and map it to a key. that should do it. but you only have one key available to map (long end key)
I've seen that toggletoday thingy but i think its for wm5. I've tried installing it but nothing happend.
Thanks thou!
hi guys, I wanted to just remove the bottom bar like u guys and found this software from some site. Dont know where actually.. But it works on my Diamond.
It just removes the bottom bar.
Hope this helps.

Nothing happend with that cab. I did a soft reset but didnt help!
thanks anyway
same here
doesn't work with my touchflo
also tried a softreset
tried to install it with touchflo disabled
and when i enabled it ..... nothing
(also tried the softreset afterwards)
any sugestions ?
reg references ?
(maybe's there's is a way to just remove the black bar (as was done with the curtain remover) and leave the buttons intact ?
(that would be the next best thing for me)
I'd rather hide the menues completly. It would be really nice having a full screen phone. Now it looks more like a pda

vjtoggletoday works also on wm6. make sure it is the alpha2 version.
you can use the attached zip file. put the autorun lnk file into your windows startup folder and configure this utility before soft-reset.
advantage of vjtoggletoday is, you can define how much of the bars' height should disappear.
another app is dcinobar which hides the bottom bar only

I dont know what that apps did to my diamond. Im not setting that on autorun! And the config file how are you suppose to config it? When neither of them starts?
by the way: both apps (i have attached dcinobar to my post above) only hide the bars on the today screen only. the bars do not disappear if you run an app.
if this would help you to some extend, i'll give you a step-by-step instruction for vjtoggle.
dcinobar is easier. just run the tool.
Have you tried them on a diamond? Cause the dcinobar did nothing on my diamond.
And the other program i think i will need a step by step guide
Thanks mate!

dcinobar works definitely on diamond. i am currently using it myself.
as said. both programs only hide the bar on today screen.
dcinobar: just copy the exe file to \windows\startup\. softreset. that's it.
vjtoggle:
copy the vjtoggletodayiialpha.exe to \Program Files\vijay555\
(if you keep the directoryname, you do not need to adjust the lnk files)
copy the vjtoggletodayAutorun.lnk to \Windows\StartUp\
copy the VJ Toggle Config.lnk to \Windows\StartMenu\Programs\
now run the config tool and set the values to 0. the config tool only sets the registry keys which are being used by the file in the startup folder.
alternatively you could do the settings yourself:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Vijay555\VJTodayToggle]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"SoftKeySize"=dword:00000001
"StartSize"=dword:00000001
"TrayVisible"=dword:00000001
in this case the top and the bottom bar will have the size of 1px (just in case you still want to access them )
soft-reset.
if you do a soft-reset i would recommend to switch the phone off (long press on the button on the very top of your diamond).
if this is not working, you are definitely doing s.th. wrong as it works on my diamond.
post here if you need some more help.
vjtoggle:
copy the vjtoggletodayiialpha.exe to \Program Files\vijay555\
(if you keep the directoryname, you do not need to adjust the lnk files)
copy the vjtoggletodayAutorun.lnk to \Windows\StartUp\
copy the VJ Toggle Config.lnk to \Windows\StartMenu\Programs\
now run the config tool and set the values to 0. the config tool only sets the registry keys which are being used by the file in the startup folder.

I did that, step by step. When i rebooted the htc, i didnt get a top menu at all and not just in today in all windows. And the bottom menu was still there.
And what happends if this will work. Will i get 2 black bars instead of 2 menues or will the screen auto adjust?

the space available for today screen will increase. the today screen is not stretched by the size you gained, you 'll have more space available.
did you try dcinobar?
Hi! I try to search for this but i find nothing.
So finally, how can be remove calendar and call history from Home tab?
I would like to have only the clock in home tab..
Thanks a lot!
ps:Sorry for my English.

it's no possibile with a digital clock?
I try to install this cab, clock appear at center of the home tab, but the background in others tab is now black with a white square a corner!
now i must restore my last backup...
no other ideas?
I have been asking for this for so long and noone has come up with a solution.
from what i understand it can be done with any clock analogue or digital, personally i dont even want the time on my home screen - Please See Here- please can anyone help with this cab?
7e640092_manila if edited in notepad can remove different elements from the home screen, but for some reason my device has a non-english one and i cant understand what it says.
also for those wanting to get the file so you can have a look, the only way i managed to get the file off my device was to changing my computers folder view settings to show "all hidden system files" and "Show all protected operating system files" then to connect through active sync, and search the windows dir on my device (which took F'in ages!! so be warned if you try!!!) using windows explorer, and then copying it to desktop.
I have tryed the analogue clock approach HERE found i had the problems shown by the screenshots and posted for help 7 or 8 times.
it seems people wont help at all when it comes to this!!
i hope the info i provided gets a solution for this irritating problem
No clock / call hist / cal
Well, the easiest way i could think of, if u do not want to have the call hist/cal/clock on the Today screen, is to dl any analog clock, extract the manila files, replace the clock images with transparent ones using Manila Editor, and finally copying all those files to the windows folder in ure device.
However, if u want a digital clock w/o those 2 tabs, there is a post right below by Elvelynn here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2861270#post2861270
Hope dat helps.
Edit: To MysticGenius, perhaps u could try dling a different clock and install the cab file that removes curtains by NisseDILLIGAF, to fix the problems u encountered, cos from my experience, installing analog clocks does not change the size of my operator text.

yikes, it seems u kinda misunderstood wat the cab file does. All it does is remove the white dotted lines between the call history & calendar texts. dats y she posted further instructions to remove the remaining call hist / calendar icons & text.
Anyway, just found out dat on the next page lies the "clean_startseite_custom.cab" file, courtesy of Elvelynn, which shd clean up the home screen, and if u have installed the "clean_startseite_tf3d.cab", be sure to uninstall dat first b4 installing this cab. of course, theres no guarantees it will work on ure device, so a backup might come in handy for some folks

according to the author of the cab file, it does wat the instructions say in the first link i posted here, i.e. it removes the dotted lines & the call hist / calendar icons and text, and the clock background becomes transparent. it also seems dat if u use the default WinMo alarm clock, the alarm time will still be displayed in ure home screen.
u could just backup ure 1bbfdc9b, 7e640092, 4820c63b, 6aec5f68 and 74ddfccb manila files, which is wat this cab file replaces.
the Keys in xml files should be
IDS_NOAPPOINTMENTS
IDS_CALENDAR
IDS_NOMISSEDCALL
But for italian language there isn't a manila file that have these keys...
nobody find solutions?
I'm near to solution
in file 1c684cd8_manila you can change the font color (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2749452#post2749452) and I try to modify in this file the font size!
I find:
- " F o n t S i z e "GJ $ " for the size of Call registry and calendar
- " S i z e "GJ p " for the space where texts are..
But if you go in hex (for font size) and change 24 to 00 the tf3d don't start...
If you set it to 01 you see only a simple line, but the space of selection stay there and i don't find a solution to remove it, changing the number of hex in S i z e nothing happen...
can anyone tell me how i can edit the start, connection and other notification icons on the top bar.

Search the forums for "tsowen taskbar". he has done some great work with alternative icons, and if you read his threads, you will undoubtedly find messages containing tutorials on this issue.
Good luck,
