Hello everyone,
I upgraded my titan to WM6.5 It works great but I really hate the new comm manager. In previous roms for WM6.1 there was a 10 button Comm Manager that looked great and had more functions like ringer, beam etc. I downloaded "duttythroy black 3g comm manager" but when I installed it says it was developed for a previuos version of WM. It says it installed it but then I cant find it in the programs list and when I press the Comm Manager button the normal comm manager from WM6.5 appears.
Any ideas? Is there another comm manager app I can use in Wm6.5??
Thanks!

Hello
I just flashed my 9100 with the new ROM and in commmanager, I can't activate ActiveSync (button is "grey")
Has someone already had/solved this problem ?
Tks
Hi, I am looking for this Comm Manager file, can you extract the .exe from the ROM (use Total Commander and copy it out of the /Windows folder) and post it here? thanks!
read the same problem you are having in another ROM, are you sure that you are connected with your dekstop? If you are not, the button is grey sometimes.
The button is grey when I'm connected or not to the PC.
3 buttons (push mail, connect, activeSync) are grey. I can only use the "phone", "bluetooth", "WiFi" and "Vibrate/Normal" buttons but not the other one.
Here is also the "CommManager.exe" program
Have you tried adapting the registry to point to the right files? In the universal upgrading forum there is a thread on which settings to adjust. try a search there and see if it htelps you. I will try the file you attached (thanks for that) tomorrow and see if it works for me.
Any other answer ?
See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44091&highlight= for the registry settings used in the Universal to get the new Comm Manager with more options working. perhaps on your Wizard it uses the same settings?
If you connect To your PC, the AS icon becomes available, whenb you connect to gprs/edge, the disconnect data service becomes available and when pushmail is enabled, you can disable with the stop direct push button... works like a charm.
Why would you want a comm manager button to activate either one of these, for it happens automatically when any service requires so.
In the "old"Comm Manager you could also change the AS settings by tapping th AS symbol, even if the device was not connected. Now with the button greyed out, I guess he has to go to start-programs-AS to change them. possible, but not as easy. And it is nice to have all connections under 1 button. That's why I am trying to integrate the new file into my old ROM.
Ok, tried overwriting the old comm manager with the exe provided above, but no dice. The .exe in this thread is only half the size of my current working one. Also, the registry settings I got from the Universal forum don't work, we don't have the necessary keys, so looks like our Comm Manager is working with different keys, I cannot find which ones. The .exe file above just gives: Unable to get comm Manager settings. Perhaps someone can extract and post all the Comm Manager files ( not only the .exe) from their ROM?
For me the important one was ActiveSync. I'm used to lauch it via Comm Manager. And you are right :
- push e-mail is not available (-> OK)
- activeSync is available only if ActiveSync is running
- disconnect data service is available if GPRS is connected (I didn't know what it was, I could'nt test)
So ewerything is running all right. :-D
Thanks
I ran a TMO USA cab for the Comm Manager from an Ext ROM. I found the file on this forum and it is working right. It has the phone button instead of the sound/vibrate button, so that is a small improvement. If only someone could send me the file with also the direct push and gprs button in it, i'd be happy.
I noticed that some other devices have a icon for the I/R on the Comm Manager... but the HTC Wizard doesn't. Does anyone have a tweak where I can add the I/R On/Off icon to the Comm Manager?
Thanks in advance for your help!
I didn't have that button in COMM Manager until I upgraded to AKU 2.25
It is available in all subsequent releases that I've seen.
Just put on htc task manager to replace just having htc x button as it is included.
It all seems to work fine but i cant get into the options of htc task manager because nothing happens, any ideas?
only thing i can possibly think is because there is a second icon in my systems tab under settings called task manager which loads the task manager that is cooked into tnt 19199 v2.
anyone else had this?
if it is this is there any way i can shift the other task manager icon?
I was wondering if it would be possible to have nice fast simple on-screen task manager that is called from long press of home button, for example. Anyone got ideas?
It's not exactly the same question, but is it possible to map a softkey to the standard task manager? (I just bought a piel frama case and it's hard to tap on the task manager symbol)
Or add a shortcut to the task manager in the start menu .. any ideas how to do this?
try here:
http://www.dotfred.net/
he has (in my opinion) the best taskmanager with all the trimmings, but if you want a basic one that just displays running programs as a picture, like Alt+Tab on a PC, download the task switcher from the above site
once it is installed, got to START->SETTINGS->BUTTONS
you will see only one button available, this is called "Button 1" (the call key bot the hang up key) map task switcher to this
then when you hold down the call key you will have a visual taskmanager where you can end running progs etc
hope this helps
Thanks for the reply, I have that task manager already installed in Dutty's ROM, and I think it's great but I can't find a simple option like "close all active tasks" and "define exceptions"
For the second idea, I have tested it but I don't like to hold any key, I feel like doing harm to my phone
thanks for the responses guys...
hey guys
first... sry for my bad englisch^^
so...i installed the new panel manager, but since i installed it the task manager icon in the right corner of the screen in the taskbar is not more displayed and if i press on that place nothing happens
i tryed also QuickMenü and SPB pocketplus but...the same(i dont know if they palce there a icon...but quickmenu changed my hole startmenu...)
is there any fix or something like that?...i´m using charon99´s lite&fast 1.3 with UC...
I have the same problem, made me switch back to the old panel manager, atleast until there is a fix for this.
You ca see the task manager button really shortly when you press the X, but it still does not work.
Does anybody have a solution?
yes i changed after i noticed that too to the old manager...but now i am back on the new manager because it is faster
at the moment i put the Windows Taskmanager in the launcher...so i do "the same" but i got to go over corner xD
This has happened to me too. Im not that bothered, but it does come in handy. Are there any fixes at all?
i searched a lot....but found nothing :S
Could somebody with any knowledge of the device investigate how to get the "task manager" back on the panels with the new panel manager?
Have tried switching the "put button on screen" (dont know precise names because of Dutch phone) option in settings, taskmanager and then button. This removes and adds the button in most panels (not "on the road") with the old panel manager, however with the new one it does not work. I also cant find any "process" with the advanced task manager that seem to correlate with this.
Again, does anybody have any ideas??
Thanks
Hey guys, How to Install old task manager? I don't like the new panel manager. It is fast, but I want task manager on the top of every panels.
Please help!
if you want your taskmanager back then you have to install the old panel manager...there is no way atm that the task manager works with R3A panel manager...
Could you please provide me an URL link to download the old panel manager. I don't want to do a Hard reset!
