Hi All and Merry Yuletide greetings!
I have a HTC dual on Orange, owned for 3 days, having been an owner of a SE P990i previously.
The phone is very good, but I would like some help from more experienced users as to a couple of questions / points:
1) If you are using the Navigational Control / Enter and are more than one level down in a sub menu, I keep looking for a 'Back' key to bring you back one sub menu and then again etc until you go back to the main screen. I cant seem to achieve this unless I tap the top right hand side of the screen. (The cross)
2) I have several e-mail accounts set up, but they are not part of Outlook E-mail. They are just separate accounts which I have on virgin, Uk2, bt etc. On the P990i it was possible to with just one click, send / receive all e-mail accounts. I cant seem to acheive this with the dual. I have to go separately into each account and hot send/receive. I am aware that I can set it up to automatically check every so many minutes / hours, but I would prefer to be able to check all accounts by pressing one button. On the orange phone, they have the option of 'Checking Orange E-mail' on the home screen. This is what I would like, but 'Check all e-mail accounts'.
The phone is generally very good. A little top heavy if you are using it lying down and using the navigation control!

im not sure about the 2nd question, but doesnt the red phone down button bring you back to the main screen?
Thanks for your answer............
This is correct. However, getting back to the main screen is the not the objective, simply to move back one level.
For example:
If I go to Start/settings/today and I want to get back to the settings page I have to hit the top right hand side of the screen, the OK button.
It would be easier if there was a 'back button' or where you could assign a button to take on the job of you having to click the OK button at the top right of the screen.

oh i see. sorry i dont know the answer, i only got my dual recently ive not had much time to play.
well, i face the same problem as well... there is no "back" button...
re your q1.
well, there is no "back" concept in situations like your example of "Start > settings > today". it's windows mobile. you can imagine it as the desktop windows. you call control panel from start menu, then choose one item to customize. now you have multiple "windows" on your desktop. so, to uncover the back one, you need to click the "ok" (or "X") on top-right corner to close the topmost window.
i got some problem , i dunno where to seek , what the keyword to search....
need some help here....
the icon at the top right corner of my touch flo missing.....so i cant view , close or swap within the opened application.......
anybody what the name of the icon?
The icon at the top right hand corner does not belong to TF. It belongs to WM as I understand. A soft reset may be a solution.

thanx for the response , i already found the solution
the name of the icon is quick menu button
start > settings > system tab > task manager > button tab > check "enable quick menu on today screen"
I've searched like hell, wiki and all, but can't find a way to do this.
When I click the signal icon in the top bar, the system status screen appears, which is fine, but then if I click the signal icon on that screen it closes and then a notification icon pops up to show me the signal status in a bubble.
Is there any way to go straight from the system status screen to the comm manager? rather than the really long way at the moment?
I'd be really happy if there was a third party app which took the system status screens place with more detailed info and comm manager in one.
hope someone can help.

I don't know if it will solve your problem, but I simply added "Comm manager" as shortcut in the start menu. (2 clicks to comm manager)
I found that if I mapped the CommManager to the 'press and hold' call accept (green phone button) in the 'buttons' section in settings, then its nice and easy to load and it doesn't then matter where you are in your phone you can always get to commManager quick and easy.
I used to have this button mapped to use the camera, this is so I had a hardware camera button but the delay is too much to live with for me.
Hi,
Thanks for the tips, I know you can just assign comm manager to a button, but I was hoping there would be a more technical way to use the system status screen to go to the comm manager.
I already have on of my buttons mapped to rotate.
Thanks
Logicalstep
Use Ae button plus (i am using it to turn on-off wifi with a double press on the vol up button)
or
edit the registry so you assign the commanager to your left softkey @ homescreen (you can use HD tweak or Advanced config tools).
instead of doing that to get to comm manager why dont you just
press home
slide to settings
load comm manager
its like button, slide, tap, less than 1 second and you can do it with one finger or your thumb while holding your phone in the same hand
tap start , tap comm manager. your there

Personally I feel 'Tap Start , Tap Comm Manager' is probably the best route to take but if you want to map a button to comm manager use AEB PLus
For example if you want you could use the Volume Up button to run Comms Manager as well as volume
Simply set Single Tap to run application and Double Tap for volume or whatever button & configuration you prefer
You have a choice of buttons to use and 3 option for configuration i.e. Single Tap, Double Tap & Hold Button
Well thanks for all your suggestions they are good ones, but as always me being very picky, I was kind of hoping there would be registry hack to allow me to do it from the system status, in my opinion this wouold be the more TF3d integrated solution allowing me to go to the comm manager just as pressing the volume button takes me to the volume controls.
It just a little illogical the way it shows the notification bubble instead of taking you to the comm manager.
What would be really great is a more advanced syatsm status screen showing all the connection info on it, such as wifi signal strength and status, data status
all icons with the ability to click on and go to comm manager.
I'm guessing this is probably just me, but I think that would be great.
Logicalstep
Start-Settings-System-Touch-FLO, untick the Show System Status screen checkbox.
At least that cuts out one unnecessary step..
hmm I don't really think that qualifies as solving my gripe as it just disables the system status menu and that doesn't fulfil any of my wish list.
Ok well if I can't get it to work with the touchflo system status screen is there a way to change what program is launched on the click of the task bar? That way I might stand a chance of making or finding an app that does what I want.
Logicalstep
doesnt the new htc notification thingy replace those bubble pop ups with a full screen finger friendly screen?
i dont know cos i havent installed it...
then clicking on the icon would take u to take screen to load comm manager
I downloaded WKTASK, you can find it on this site, which places an icon of all open programs on the task bar. Open Commmgr the first time and then leave it open on the task bar. Next time you need it one tap brings you there.
wktask looks cool thanks
I am running a nand version on my HD2, of android. But the problem is, in the bar below (wich you always could see in your home screen) i had three apps. phone/menu/messages. Something happend and I've lost the menu 'app'. The problem is that I can't find the menu 'app' in my app list. I think that is because it isn't a real app. phone and messages i can find. But the menu thing I can't find. Now I see a star in the bar and I can't find the menu thing as an app. Does anybody know how I can get the menu shortcup back!!!???? PLZ??

Keep holding on that star in ur menu bar and press on smtg called "app drawer" .
Or press your physical menu button ( the windows key ) / then preferences / scroll down and try to reset to defaults .

Well, I've tried your first thing. It doesn't matter hoe long I keep holding the star, eventualy it says: no application defined yet, drop something here! .
Your second way doesn't work, because: I go to preferences and then ADWLauncher. In ADWlauncher I reset to default, but then it doesn't reset the shortcut bar, it only resets your home screen preferences. Like I have normaly 5 rows, then it goes back to 4 rows. But it doesn't reset the shortcut bar?? Is there some other way???

I have flashed the Dorimanx's new ROM and seen the soft key at the left top conner.
Link to Dorimanx's new ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166948
How can I accomplish this for other ROMs? An App? or some Setting?
Thanks in advance.
You can try Button Savior, you can find it in the Android Market but you have to be rooted to use it. The app puts a icon on your screen that stays on top of everything. You touch the icon and it opens up more buttons on your screen that will stay for the amount of time you select or permenently if you choose. It gives you a exit button a plus button ( this expands to more buttons being a phone, camera, and search buttons), a menu button, a home button, and a lock screen button. I used it all the time as it really saves wear and tear on your external hardware buttons and it is so easy to use and always available on your screen.
thanks for the quick reply. i ll give it a try
If the "other" rom is based on CM7, you can simply enable a setting in (Settings > CM7 Settings > Tablet Tweeks > Enable Soft Keys & set your own)
Otherwise, follow the post above yours
thats exactly i am looking for
