how to change link behind IE button

I have noticed that the link/app behind the IE button on the iMate JASJAR has embedded the www.clubimate.com link and every time you click the button it tries to open up that site. I want to change that so that it acts like the IE icon does on the start menu so that the web page I have up does not get overwritten. The site is not the home page defined in IE because I have already changed that. I am guessing that they have it as a parameter passed on the command line in the button. The button applet does not even have that button as one that can be touched. Anyone know what part of the registry to look at?
Thanks
Joseph

Get a registry editor.
Go to - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\OEM\Keybd
Change the string called PieHomePage to the website address of your choice.

rilot, is there anyway to make the button NOT go to any website? I just want it to switch me back to PIE without changing the page I was browsing.
For example, I'm looking at a web page, and decide to go check my mail by hitting the messaging button - then viewing my mail. Then, when I press the Internet Explorer button I just want to go back to the same spot I left in the browser, not launch any page at all. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Just edit the dword so that it is blank.
Works fine, just tested it.

For the MDA Pro from T-Mobile (Germany) the registry key is different:
\HKLM\software\HTC\PIEPlug\home

internet key
how to disable the key at all, or better to make it a "space" key?
It's just next to "space" in my T-Mobile MDA pro and I can't stand it goes on the net each time I press it by chance typing!!!
thks

In my Qtek9000 the registry change doesn't work. It keeps on appearing the OEM page of the carrier which suxx...
So I created a blank html page and copied it in the Windows directory All set now
You can do the same...

Did you try setting your homepage to "about:blank" ?

Ultimate launch question.

Trying to create a button link to "settings" in my verizon ppc for UL, any ideas?
thank you very much.
Jon

"UltimateLaunchConfig.exe" is the app. What kind of "button link" do you want? In a UL button? or a hard button?

If you mean create a button to show the settings menu, this should work for you:
Go to Windows\Start Menu
Copy Settings
Paster a shortcut (for settings) anywhere.
create a new button using the shortcut you created​

Much respect to all first and foremost. From my experience with UL, that may work for some applications located in the Windows folder, but not all. For instance, you cannot create a shortcut for the Today settings to switch up your themes, Power/Soft Reset , or even Remove Programs either. There's a slew of programs that can't be made into shortcuts within UL. It's perhaps a limitation of UL.
But there is hope and light at the end of the tunnel. If one desperately wants to create /include such applications (Power, Resetting, Today, etc) with UL, one can install Mobile Shell because it create shortcuts in itself, which UL can then detect. Pocket Plus may be able do the same, but I'm uncertain.
Also, the word on the street, the next version will be 'better' and I don't have the slightest clue as to when that release will surface. I'm no expert, just a big fan like of UL. My two cents.

this answer is a little bit wrong:
1. you can make a Shortcut to ANY wm setting. example: command: ctlpnl, param: cplmain.cpl,10 (for uninstalling software) search in the other ul threads.
2. Daniel Who wrote UL made also some "smartutilities" for make calll, toggle wifi, softreset and many more, google for it. this are small .exe you can link to.

yes, i was attempting to have a button inside of UL access the settings area. I have the xv6700 which appears to have a problem with keeping UL on the today screen after a soft reset. so before I soft reset I need to change my today plugin to something else. otherwise when i reboot nothing shows up and will not load any other plug-ins. Makes it easy to have a quick link cause I'm not a stylus fan.
Thank you very much guys. would have never thought of making a short cut of it. thanks again!

Good information. This seems to be a hot topic at the moment and assume this info hasnt been highlighted before. Perhaps a brave soul will post some shortcut command params, directions/instructions in their spare time, and have them listed/located in one thread for easy like the icons. (And also some of those "smartultilities" as well).

How about game area ? my problem 's it's difficult to create all game in icons. so I would like to make a link to call all game folder as when we call it by startmenu

Well, I'm not very brave, but I knew this page existed on PPCSG.COM, so I thought I'd share it. It shows how you can create .LNK files to many of the Settings Applets. Hope it helps.
-pvs

Here is a link to majority of the settings options:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340974
Just find the one you want, open notepad on your PC copy the line into notepad, with only that text, and save as power.lnk, for example, then have the button set to that link.

Any Idea on how to add a folder shortcut? I want to have my different photo albums

Is there a way to specify the appropriate ICON in the .lnk file? I have the "cplmain.cpl,26" working but it just shows a generic icon.

Just change the icon in the display tab.

Did you ever get an answer on this? If so, how do you make a shortcut to a folder? I've tried using the context menu of creating a shortcut and then having UL point to the shortcut but it doesn't open it.
Thanks for any info!

would like to know this as well.

I hadn't used this yet, but resco explorer has an option (you have to edit the regsitry for it) that let's you load folders according to command line arguments (then you can use UL to load the folder in resco straight using a command line).
you should check it out.

Hi,
If you just looked 30 minutes ago you saw a post of my about removing the youtube icon and URL from the internet browser tab:
See post:
Removing Youtube rom Internet Browser
Hi,
If you want (need) to delete youtube from the internet browser tab then do the following via the register:
Please edit the register for example with PHM Registry Editor and change the following value
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila2D/InternetWidget/Customized/CustomizedCount=0 (original set on 1).
Reboot/Reset MDA>Ok
Rgds,
EZengin

The youtube one cannot be removed easily i dont think.
But you can add and change your own bookmarks by clicking the "All bookmarks" button in the bottom left, and then click the plus button to add new ones, and obviously the X to delete.
In regards to wether this is the right place to post this question, no it isnt, you should ask this question INSIDE the Syrius R4 thread.
Obviously your new to this site, so all is forgiven.
Hope that answers your question

Hi,
- with registry editor go to :
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manilla2D\InternetWidget\Customized
- Delete the key "0"
- Disable then enable Manilla2D or Softreset your phone

Hi
thanks for all the input but i catually want to create a shortcut to another application (google maps). ive tried adding it but to no avail!
any ideas?
I still want the youtube one though
Sorry about wrong place!
GBDS

Did you try to look in the register for the InternetWidget key and change the value of OperaEXEfile to the program you want to use ?
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manilla2D\InternetWidget
?

I still want to use opera as my default browser but the main aim is to add another shortcut under the 'launch browser' icon so that i can run google mpas from my internet page

Try changing:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manilla2D\InternetWidget\customized\0\customizedurl
It says: '\windows\Youtube.exe'
Change '\windows\youtube.exe' in '\program Files\Googlemaps\Googlemaps.exe'
To change the Title change this value:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manilla2D\InternetWidget\customized\0\customizeTitle
into: 'Googlemaps'
Good luck!
Don't forget to disable and re-enable manilla after the change...

Deleting Opera Bookmarks?

Ok I may just be going stupid here but I want to delete some of the bookmarks that Opera seems to have as defualt. Ie when you go to the internet page it has a list of bookmarks you can choose below the planet. And when you go into bookmarks it has the links for Google UK, Wikipedia etc, what I want to do is delete some of these, is there a way?
I can't for the life of me see a way to delete them?

If Opera Mobile is still having more or less the same interface, then press the star symbol to go bookmark. Place your cursor on the bookmark to delete, then press the symbol that looks like a tool (shape of X). A dialog will appear to ask you if you want to delete it. Click delete button.
Let me know if it still work this way in this version of Opera. Cheers.

Thanks eaglesteve.
The only problem is if I tap on one of the bookmarks it launches the browser and goes to that bookmark. As there is no keyboard in the bookmark view I don't have the arrows on the keyboard to navigate down the list and select the bookmark that way. If I create my own bookmarks its not a problem, it just seems you can't delete these defualt bookmarks

That works if you want to delete the first bookmark on the list that is already highlighted. When I try to choose different bookmark it tends to just open the link. Another method is to press and HOLD the bookmark and a screen will pop up with the delete option amongst others.

Yes, the lack of D-pad makes this untuitive, but not to worry, there is another way:
Press on that item and HOLD until you see the pop up dialog letting you delete that bookmark then.

Don't tap it, just place your finger and keep it there for awhile on top of the bookmark you want to delete and you'll get a menu where you can choose what you want to do with that bookmark.

Hi, all,
Sorry to gate-crash here, but I'm a new member and haven't found the Opera section of this forum, yet.
Does anyone know how to relabel the Speed Dial icons in Opera?

thanks eaglesteve! that worked like a charm !!
You wouldnt hapend to know how to organize the favorites ? like moving them up or down. like if you want the most visited sites on top and less visited further down the line.
thanks

How do I save a webpage?

Is it possible to save a webpage on the HD? You know, just like on the PC, you can save a webpage to view it later off-line.

I presume your using Opera? Go to your webpage you want to save, then just tap bottom right of the screen, then on the STAR Tab. Tap on the PLUS sign on the bottom left and lastly the TICK! You can also put it into a certain folder too!

Thats to create a favorite, I think the post is asking to save the page to view off line in the HD cache, nut sure if by creating a favorite you can view it off line, I am sure someone will tell us.

That's correct. I am not referring to saving a favorite, but rather to saving the page itself to view later without having to connect to the internet again. I don't know if it is possible.

In Menu-Tools, I don't have an option to save as. I only see History, Send Link, Properties and Options. And none of those give me the option to save as.

oops my mistake!

In Opera, touch&hold your finger while in the middle of a webpage, all of a sudden a context menu will appear, there is an option amongst others that says "Save webpage" and another one "Add to Bookmarks".

Really? Is it THAT simple? Cool, I'll have to try it after my HD is done charging.

To what location are they saved?

Yes it is, saved pages can be found under Application Data\Opera\saved pages\ under a default name. You could probably transfer these files anywhere later on and access them from File Explorer (tried that and it works).
Another way to access the page: click the rightmost icon in the bottom soft bar in Opera (the same bar where you can also add to favorites). An option "Saved pages" shows you all the saved pages like they were favorites/bookmarks.
Maybe there is a way to configure the default saved pages folder ... (haven't found anything under opera:config)
BEWARE when you open the file: the phone will probably try to establish a connection via GRPS, it's best to turn on the notification of a GRPS connection, that way you are notified and asked before such a connection can be established.
