By status bar functions I mean the functions that appear on the bottom line either side of the keybaord icon.
On my MDA PRO these are Messages and Calender.
I would prefer contacts.
Not found anywhere ,where this is set.
What would be nice is if the bar that displays these functions was transparant.
But you have a contacts button available. Why do you want two?
Here is a possible solution:
TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Open your registry
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112
Change the (default) key from Messages to Contacts
Change the Open key from \windows\htcmessages.exe to \windows\start menu\contacts
Contacts button?
Well I have had a few too many glasses of wine this lunch time.
Just turned on my PDA (MDA PRO)
It screen out , eg folded with screen visible and keypad hidden.
Screen is on. Where is the contact button? I have to go into Phone to get to contacts?
I may re assign the camera button, but want to change the options at the bottom of the screen. I can reach them with my thumb.
Cheers.
FYI on the O2 XDA Exec I have the following keys:
Open "\windows\calendar.lnk"
OldOpen "Calendar.exe"
Default "Calendar"
Whic gives me left soft key 'Calendar'
Where does the right soft key 'Contacts' get set?
I think you have had one too many this lunch time.
Along the top of the keyboard you have:
button 1 - open phone
button 2 - messages
button 3 - contacts
button 4 - video phone
button 5 - calendar
button 6 - close phone
What keyboard, my phone is screen out, keyboard hidden.
As I highlighted, I want a fast button / task bar option for contacts , without twisting to reveal keyboard.
Sorry GDawes it must have been me that had one to many sherberts at lunch time:
Anyway here is what you need to do!
Open your registry
HKCU\software\microsoft\today\keys\112
Change the (default) key from Messages to Contacts
Change the Open key from \windows\htcmessages.exe to \windows\Appbuttons\Contacts.lnk
Soft reset
JOB DONE!
Help!
The icons on the far right hand side of my task bar are missing, I now can't see the volume controls and I can only see a tiny part of the phone reception icon, how can I restore it to normal??!!
A soft rest doesn't work, nor does booting into ssafe mode courtesy of SPB pocket plus.
Hi,
It's a well know issue on win2005. If you don't show the date on the top bar, icones shift to the right and aren't well displayed. Just use this registry tweak below and choose showing time in place of blank string and the problem is solved...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry
Change the date in the Titlebar
?HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell "TBOpt"=hex:\
13,00,00,00
Change 3 as follows: 0:blank 1:time only 2:date only 3:date & time
Can someone figure out how to stop date line from being bold.
Combine this with follwoing to get a date that fits:
That did it
Thanks bonisalive
With WM5, the softkeys were
Left softkey: New (text message)
Right softkey: Menu
after upgrading my Cingular 8525 to WM6 it is not that useful:
Left softkey: Delete
Right softkey: Menu
In effect, to create a new message I need to select Menu and then New.
Is it possible to assign New to the left softkey?
oh god yes

It might have been in your ROM!
Mine always had CONTACTS on the left and CALENDAR on the right! BTW: The HERMES has a direct MESSAGING button on the top left anyway, so, what does that matter? Next to you can enable the MESSAGING TODAY PLUGIN or assign / remap the buttons yourself!
This might help. Work on my WM6 ROM (vpG3 v3.62.3).
Start
Settings
System tab
Soft key
from there you can set up you soft keys to run the application you want.
He means with the MESSAGING menu, not on the TODAY Screen. Yes, on today it's Left-Calendar, Right-Contacts.
BUT
We want it back to the way it was on WM5.
Left - NEW
Right - MENU
Please oh Please can someone find a fix for this. Who new the geniuses at m$ could find such a simple way to make daily texting so much more annoying.

Hi all
PHM Registry Editor - the text of the menu buttons at the bottom of the screen is missing, as well as the top item of each menu. This issue is common to some other apps as well, but the apps are still fully functional.
PocketConsole - the main screen does not update until the screen orientation is changed. The text of the menu buttons at the bottom is also missing.
Both of these seem pretty strange, and I don't know if they are related, but you'd think they'd be fairly simple to fix. Is anyone else experiencing this, and has anyone found a fix?
Thanks

The text is there, just the Today theme has white text on a very light background. If you press in the correct place the menu will popup. Alternatively change the theme.

Ah, so it is. On the Xperia Black theme the text isn't slightly ligher though, it's the exact same colour.
My problem with PocketConsole remains though. Screen just doesn't update unless the whole screen is re-drawn. Is anyone else using the software and what are your Xperiances?
Due recessed screen is really painful to scroll contact list by letter. How can enlarge the right scroll bar to make it more comfortable? I don't want to install others contact manager
You can set the width of the scrollbars with Advanced Config.

Yeah, but then all the vertical scrollbars grow bigger and the symbols in the program-menu don't fit into three columns anymore.
It would be nice that only the black bar with the letters inside would be twice as wide so that it could be easily pressed with the thumb.

That would be a good CAB. Does anyone want to look through the Kaiser/Raphael forum fro the side A-Z bar?

exactly, advanced config doesn't resolve this annoyance. +1 for your solution but I don't know how
any hint?
Bump*
Just wondered if there is any solution to this?
For me, I goto Contacts-->Right softkey "Menu"-->Options-->Unchecked "Show contact names only". This will make the letter bar a little larger.
If this is you setting already, there are no way as of now to make the letter bar larger, unless you install other contact program...like Resco Contact manger.
i had the same trouble, as an alternative i selected "show alphabetical index" in the contact menu options. this puts the letters along the top in groups instead and a slighter larger scroll bar down the side. i found it much easier than having the tiny letters on the right.
another alternative solution is to use the free spb xperia panel and use the contacts in there. also you can have photo contacts. much more finger friendly
