Remove theme - Touch GSM General

Hi,
I'm running WM6.1 on my elf and I want to delete a theme but I can't seem to find out how.
I tried from the today screen settings>delete but i get a @These system files cannot be [email protected] error msg.
I tried deleting the files manually with the same result.
This happens even if the theme is not in use
Ideas?

*_manilla - Access Denied

Can't change any file! What to do?
Tried even Pocket TC - no luck (unckecked attributes).
Replace with total commander, cheers
Please - read my post - i said already that i tried to do that with TC - Total Commander...
Ah sorry about that i'll have my eyes checked. Have you done it from within total commander with the copy move option?
What files do you want to change? if it is not to complicated I might be able to put them in a cab file for you if you post them, or if you do a search for "Quick Cab" you could easily make your own. The advantage of a cab file for me is that it is easy to revert to your original state by simply uninstalling the cab.
Have you disabled manila (TouchFlo 3D) in \Settings\Today\Items? Try doing that then copying. Then enable again.

I assume you wish to remove a '*_manila" file, such as when the rom version has been overwritten, but you now want to remove the new file and bring the original rom file forward again?
First best to unload TouchFlo3D by unticking in Today settings.
If you are unable to directly remove the 'overwritten' file due to Access Denied error, simply use Total Commander to "Rename" the file to something completely different.
Then try deleting the file which now has a different file-name.
Worst-case you will need to reboot and the rom file will be restored (as the overwritten file was now renamed), then delete the redundant renamed file.
Hope this all makes sense!

This is a .cab which should install the two manilla files into your windows folder. You will have to disable/re-enable TF3D or soft reset. You can change the wallpaper on the home screen with the app foud here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427463 I hope this is of some use to you. I used QuickCab to make the file found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400221 It is very straight forward. I prefer to use cab files for installing custom manilla files because they are easy to then uninstall.

how do I delete locked panels?

Hi,
does anyone know how to delete a locked panel, I just want to remove the 02 one that came with mine but its locked. Any ideas anyone.
thanks
hey....i did it with an tmobile panel....just connect to your pc and go to
Computer/X1/Programms/panels
There u can see the panels in folders....maybe u should make a backup of the panel.....but if u delete the folder of the panel it will disappear at once
arrg...please don't delete folders it only causes problems.
Install total commander and navigate into the \\plugins directory
then goto registry\HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager\Panels\o2Panel\Locked and set it to 0
Oh and by the way, a quick search on these forums would have found that answer, please remember that in future for this and any other forum you may frequent.
Oh and yes "total commander" you're gonna have to search for it
Ive got total commander by ghisler
Its just a file browser, no different to looking at it in windows. Am I missing something?
EDIT: Nevermind, i needed the pocket pc version, not the windows one lol

Remove handango!

I have installing the new software from de Sony Ericsson Updater. But i can't remove handango from the softwarelist now.
Where can i find handango, and can i remove handango!
yes, I'd like to know as well. It's just taking up space and it's not on the list after the R2 update
It is not actually installed, the shortcut in Programs is just that...a shortcut that lunches Opera to download the client from Handango.
You can simply remove it by going to Windows > Start Menu > Programs and delete the shortcut from there.
Thanks mkouk, it's gone and I'm a happy man.
i cant delete the shortcut from there any other possibilities?

what message do you get when you are trying to delete it?
If it has to do with file attributes (e.g. it is read-only) you can change those attributes using Total Commander
Total comander......ahhhh thank you!
The delete option is just greyed out in RM2.
I will hunt down the TC cab now.
Thanks again!

HTC Pure TF3D Internet tab

Is there any way to change the default page from att.net? It would be nice if you could set it to a homepage of your own choice. I have opera homepage set to Yahoo mobile version, but it does not use that homepage from the TF3D tab...WTF.
Val
Have the same problem here.
no news????
No one knows how to solve the problem??
Yeah, it's easy. You have to edit the file in /Application Data/Manila/InternetPortal-en-US.xml.
Copy it to your storage card, plug in the phone to your computer with usb as storage device. Open the file, change the NavigateUrl="att.net" to NavigateUrl="what ever website you want", save it, then overwrite it back to Application Data/Manila/
Also you can do it with Total Commander on the phone. Find the file. Hold down on it and go to properties, uncheck Read Only and System, click ok. Click File at the bottom, click on >>>>>, click on Edit. Change the NavigateUrl= (same as above), click ok (upper right corner). Hold down on the file, click Properties, check Read Only and System, click ok
That's it!

Hi. I have a WWE ROM there are additional files "InternetPortal.xml" in the Windows directory for different languages. So check there for your language. If there is no InternetPortal-it-IT.xml file, just create one. I think this will work.

Tip: Regain 7 mb free space in storage memory

1) Just delete Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe files from Windows directory.
Both these files are copied during hard reset from the rom to the storage memory. As a result of that a functional copy of both files can be found in rom. The original files will be "activated" after deleting these files from the storage memory
2) Soft Reset
Opera will continue to work as previously
If you are unable to delete them, you can use Sktools and "Replaced Rom files" menu
Great tip, works a treat, thanks!
Very helpful, thanks!
Cheers always looking for more install space..

Open Sktools -> Click on Category -> Select Files -> Select Replaced ROM Files -> Check Opera9.exe & OperaL.exe -> Click Action -> Click Restore ROM file
I don't think that you can delete read only files that are included in the ROM.
Even if you delete those Opera files they will probably come back after a soft reset.

There is a double copy of these files, in rom and in storage memory. You delete the files in storage and continue to use the files in rom. Deleted files will be restored after hard reset, not soft reset.

Thanks for replying but when i follow your instruction, none of the opera files show up on the list. Using total commander, i can see both opera9 and operaL in the windows directory. i;m using sktools 4.4.7.9. Any further help will be much appreciated.

You have already deleted them (probably with Total commander)
Check your free storage memory

You're probably right! It's gone up by 4.5mb. Thanks for your help and support. Really appreciated!
You can delete it using Total Commander: First rename the 2 files like Opera.old and operaL.old.
Then delete the 2 files :*.old
Daniel
Still cannot delete those 2 files after renaming the extension in Total Commander
Can't find a way how to delete those 2 suckers. They are like trojans in my PC! HA HA can't rid 'em! I guess I'll have to try that SKTools thing!
The same for me.
Can't delete these 2 apps on windows directory.
Using SKTools 4.4.7.13
Thanks for this. I was staring to run a little low!
Nice tip! Thanks. I just renamed them in Resco and moved them to SD. No reset required. Immediately saw the increase in memory and Opera still worked. Of course, doing a reset is still recommended

Same thing here, not able to find Opera files.
Edit: Sorry it was because demo version
i have use sktools for opera and its very good tools
when i look for other possibility of soft i look for storage analyser and i found my document use a lot of storage memory when i look in the music repertorie have copy a part of my mp3 in the storage card of my phone.
perhaps this is the same sytem of album htc.
thank for your very good topic
Worked like a charm
Did that by renaming both files to *.old and then deleting the resulting renamed files using Total Commander. Finally a soft reset.
One of the best hints so far. Thank so much.
I think it should be added to "*Leo Hints & Tips* - Things you may not have known".
