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...

Even if I 've changed the home page to something else (Google), whenever I launch from the hard button, it defaults to O2's website. Is there any way to change this?
The URL is stored in the registry:
HKLM\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD
PieHomePage = "<your URL here>"
I have mine set to Google.com/pda because it is a very small page to load in case of accidental pushing and GPRS connection.
I actually have "Home" on PIE set to Google.com/ig so that I can go just about anywhere I want in a couple of keypresses/screentaps.
Oh, I think there are longwinded ways of changing this, like Tweaks2K and others, but this is the one stop solution to your question.
sorry if this doesnt answer ur question, but i suggest using opera as it really goes 2 ur set homepage w/o any tweak. that, aside from its other several advantages over IE. :wink:
on a slightly different but also related topic, how do i map d default IE button on d HTC univ 2 launch opera? ive tried PQzII but i cant find d IE button, or is it named differently? :?
instead of a URL, specify the full path to the Opera executable.
Sorry to start a new Thread if this question has already been asked in this forum earlier.
My Question:
Does anyone know how can I change ""m.yahoo.com"" to some other address, let say I want "www.google.co.uk".
Thanks in advance
Sid
Scroll along to internet on the today page, when the net has loaded up, tap the small box with the arrow on the right hand bottom corner, you will see 5 icons tap the one on the right that looks like 2 pages, then select settings, then start page,at the bottom it says "user defined, type in the web addy in there and tap the tick, that should to it, failing that, put it in your favorites (star icon) and then bring it up , hope that helps
I have already tried this trick to "manually define" the address, but it only works if I open the browser and then click on HOME icon.
But the question is How to change the address which is coded behind the Internet Globe Icon?
Regards
Sid
Mine's stuck on this too. Must be an Ignito thing. Probably needs changing in the registry somewhere.
Answer is in THIS thread, you have to edit \Application Data\Manila\InternetPortal-en-gb.xml in a text editor.

THANKYOU soo much & thanks to TechDave as well, Problem solved.
I´m using pocket informant for PIM management and HD Tweaks to remap the softkeys, however, I can´t assign to any of the softkey the pocket informant contacts or calendar, only the WM.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
You need to modifye keys in the registry. Here is how I've done it on my HD (it's in french, so you may have to translate the path for your version)
Using a registry editor,
- I have assigned the label "Agenda" to the left soft key :
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeLSKText="Agenda"
- I've assigned the week view to the key :
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeLSKPath="Windows\menu démarrer\programmes\informant utils\piweek.lnk"
Note that the "Informant Utils" folder contains a shortcut for each view, you can choose whichever you want, their name are self explanatory.
I've configured the x button to close all applications but PI (to have it always active and then have a faster access) :
- start PI
- go to settings>Task manager> tab "current" (or whatever the first tab name is in your language)
- tap and hold on the PI task, then select "add to exclusive"
That way, when I click on the left soft key (now labeled "Agenda") I switch to PI in week view. I can then switch from PI by using the Home button or the x button, PI will stay active and the next switch will be very fast.
Nor working for me...
I should work. You must have made a mistake somwhere. Did you do a soft reset? Did you doublecheck the path to be sure you wrote it correctly?
You can also try the program HD Tweak wich allow you to set that in section 14.4 & 14.5.
My answer to HTCZar was irrelevant, because Claude already anwered.
As I said in the first post, I tried to use HD Tweaks, however the optios presented don´t include the PI calendar\agenda, how do I put them there?

Could you possibly check the link properties for this and month view? Just for anyone that might have got rid of all those extra links cluttering up his 'All programs list'...
What I'd like to have set up, the left soft key goes to Pocket Informant (maybe the screen where you choose what view you want) and when I tap an appointment in TF3D it loads the agenda view, using SSMaPa. (Can you get me a link for this?)
Here is the link as read in the properties of the shortcut :
For PIWeek.lnk :
"\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe" 4?\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe,-113
For PIMonth :
"\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe" 4?\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PITab.exe,-114
To get rid af tho extras link in 'All program list', it would have been better to move the shortcut in another folder, so you could still use them if needed...
I haven't used SSMaPa yet (but I planned to) therefore I can't help you on this matter. Sorry.
Yeah, I should have just moved them... silly me. Thanks for your help. Could you possibly give the link to the agenda view too? Thanks.
Is there a link to 'view' view?
I´ll Try that Again then.
Is it possoble to change the hardware keys function?
Works fine! Thank you very much! @claude
Where do you put the path and exactly how are you writing it ?

1. You need to install registry editor. I use Resco Registry Editor, but there are some other.
2. Open the registry and follow the tree up to the parameter HomeLSKPath. Taping on the parameter should provide a field where to keyin the path string.
3. Quit the registry editor
4. Restart TF3D or do a Soft Reset.
I´ve done that, and i´m also using Resco editor.
The path strings begins with Windows\....PIWeek.lnk right? it takes no " "?
I know we can change the order of the tabs on the default windows today screen, but is it fully customizable yet? I want my text tab to take me to sms chat,my music tab to open s2p, and my favorites tab to open up opera or show my opera favorites not internet explorer cause i dont even use that. Is this possible using the registry??
partially possible
you can change the soft keys to whatever you want by editing the registry
here: \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\
like on the clock plugin my soft key is galarm for example
and on the text one you can replace the "compose" with say a link to pocketcm
all you have to do is change two registry entries in the corresponding folder in the registry one for the link text and one for the link to the program or even website which I did to launch custom bookmarks
it's surprisingly customizable
the only one I don't think you can change is the music
but next time you should really ask in Q and A
this isn't the place for questions
please refer to the Q&A section
thank you
Hi. I have recently got a Touch 2. On the tabs along the bottom of the screen, the fifth tab from the left is the one featuring a 'globe' icon. Tapping it opens the 'Opera' browser. I prefer using Internet Explorer and (at the moment) have to open that by using the 'Start' menu. Is there a way of making IE the default browser so that it starts when the 'globe' tab is tapped? I imagine this requires dumping of 'Opera' and making tapping of the 'globe' icon leading to IE. HTC gave me a solution, then, when that didn't work, said, 'It can't be done.' Any ideas? Cheers
I know exactly what you need...
1. Find application called M2DC on this forum.
2. Install it.
3. Run it. There are some tabs at the bottom of the screen.
4. Find tab "Internet" and click on it.
5. Then change the path to the Internet Explorer in the Windows folder.
6. That's it. You should be able to use globe icon to run IE.
(I am not sure, but you maybe need to softreset the phone after changing that.)
Hi, Mekki99.
I did that and it works, well almost. IE starts from the tab on the 'Today' screen, but then says 'Cannot find 'hxxp:///home'. Make sure the path or Internet address is correct.' If I advance to the relevant menu to go to the 'Home' page, it finds the one i have lodged as the Home Page. Where to from here? Cheers.
why do you wanna surf the net with internet explorer and not opera mini 5, which is super fast compared to the old opera or internet explorer?
Quite simply, I prefer IE. Thanks.
Hello, my solution for this problem:
In TotalCommander go into registry folder (\\Plugins\registry)and go to \HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\Manila2D\InternetWidget\
1.Changing browser- open file (WebBrowserType) and change value from 1 to 2.
2.Changing URL- open folder Customized and find file (BannerUrl) and change value to your favorite homepage.
3.Restart
Hi. Thanks for your solution.
Can you help me a bit further?
What is TotalCommander?
How do I get to the quoted registry folder?
Cheers
Hi, Ondrej.
Don't worry, I have followed your directions using a bit of lateral thinking and solved that issue. Thanks heaps.
Now can you turn your mind to the problem I relate in thread 730375 (On the 'Start' menu, there are a number of icons / applications. They all start with one tap. Except 'Internet Explorer'. The first tap on the IE icon, takes you back to the 'Today' screen, with 'Internet Explorer' briefly being able to be seen in place of 'Start', then the words disappear. However, the programme does not run. On tapping 'Start', again, and then tapping once on the 'IE' icon (again), it runs. This happens every time I want to use IE. Why? HTC Contact Centre suggested I place IE on the 'Programs' page and try that. It was the same. They have failed to respond to my response. Is there a remedy? The same behaviour occurs when opening from the 'Programs' tab on the 'Today' screen, or from the 'Browser' tab on the 'Today' screen'.)
Cheers. Dave
Hi, TotalCommander is a file manager program for windows. You have to download and install a pocket pc version. Because Iam new here, I cant write you url. Please find this program on internet. (Download cab for arm/pxa/xscale).
Start a TotalCommander and go into root (\) You will see a \\Plugins folder.
Hi, Ondrej.
Thanks. See my last post before yours. I have fixed that issue, but want to resolve the last one! Any help appreciated. Cheers.
I'm working on it.
Thanks, Ondrej.

Here with me, I don't want to use IE, I prefer to use Opera. The HTC im using came with Opera Mobile 9.5 and is the browser that opens when i click on the globe on one of the tabs of M2D. I downloaded mobile opera 10 for windows touch phones thinking that it will update the current opera browser, and to my dissatisfaction - it did not. Opera Mobile 10 appears on my program list.
How do I make it the browser that opens when i click on the globe? Should I follow the instructions provided in this thread? I don't want to mess up my registry and have irreversible issues.

Is this the same procedure if I would like to change it to any browser, say Opera Mobile 10? The person who started this thread wrote he got problems after he did this operation.
