Start Menu - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

Is it possible to change the startbutton's shortcut?
What i want is that when i click on it, it has to open the "old" HTC start menu. i liked that-1 way more because it was more adjustable as the new windows 6.5 startmenu. I have googled on changing the layout of the "new" start menu. untill now i am only able to delete shortcuts and to make sub directories in it. but i can't change the position of the icons other then "move to top".
It would be great if i could just change the way the start button works atm.
thnx in advance.
ps sry for bad english. i hope it's clear what i mean.

erm sorry mate, i cant find a way anywhere within the settings of the device to change that, try going with a cooked rom, they may give better organisation

Getting rid of the icons at the start menu

As the pic shows, my background(lovely car huh) gets shifted in the start menu with theese "last used programs"-icons. I have no idea how I put them there, and no idea how to remove them
I've looked through the settings but must have missed, or do you need to modify the registry? This might be a topic for the subforum general discussion.
It's a htc diamond with advanced cfg tool 3.2 installed
thanks
you remove them in settings/today/Items
No I meant the Icons on top of the start menu, for search, notes, contacts etc. just above "Idag".
A side question, how did you manage to put the picture in the start menu? Mine is always black.....

I think this will remedy your situation.
Go to Settings -> System -> TouchFlo and untick the middle box that activates large text/Startmenu.
Thanks CadCruizer it did the trick!

[REQ] WM6.5 - fixing the SIP Menu!

Hi,
I realize that this question was asked a million times on the forum, but I've been looking for a solution since yesterday and just can't find it
Can anyone tell me how can I change the default touch input language (T9) on Windows Mobile 6.5? I'm using the Rhodium Manila with the new Keyboard and I have by default english language (I'd like to have polish).
I cannot change this in any way. I've tried to do it by registry in several keys, but it won't work.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Hey,
for me this worked:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3865875&postcount=362
else you can change HKLM\Software\HTC\ezsip\BioToShowMenu to 1 (in registry) and wait for few seconds.. (not more than 10sec) that "starts" the sip-menu, and you can click on your language
maybe it says [unknown] in the menu, then click there, that brings you to the language submenu
hope that helps you

Great! It helped, thanks a lot
Sorry for the double post, just wanted everyone to notice it
I've made a cab, which changes the registry value (thanks to tomoffel), so that you have easy access to the SIP Menu. I tried to do it as a reg file, but it would require some additional program to run it.
Just install it (don't mind if it shows 'The installation was unsuccesful') and voila
The cab is rather only for WM6.5, where the SIP menu is hidden.
great idea! Thank you!
just poping up the SIPmenu after "installation"?
btw. found the BioToShowMenu entry by playing around in the registry, don't know if this was known befor maybe that helps to fix the SIP menu in 6.5?
Yeah, exactly I thought that changing the reg value everytime I want to change the language or keyboard type is a but uncomfortable. It's a pity though that running reg files requires some additional software, because it would be faster.
That's some nice discovery of you with that reg value I'm not that so much in WM, but I hope this can help!
Ok, here's the other way. You have to install an app (FdcSoft Task Manager), it will associate reg files, so that after clicking one the reg value will be changed.
Here's the reg file content:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip\]
"BioToShowMenu"=dword:00000001
The last line must be empty!
Credits for finding the reg key go to tomoffel
And here's the ready file in the attachment.
great and awesome! works like a charm

Good to know Here's another upgrade to access the menu faster - just do a shorcut and put it into start or assign a hardkey for it
I assigned the shortcut to GScrolls Launch function now wenn I tap back and center, the SIP-Menu comes up! Thank you again
now you/we/the uber pros just have to find a way how the "SIP-Button" shows that menu.. but it looks like nobody is interesstet :/
Offtopic:
can you add new words to the xt9 database? This never worked for me :/ neither after hardrest nor after installing another sip that uses the xt9 :/ (just ask because I see you use the same ROM )
That's a good idea with assigning the menu to GScroll, will try it myself
I noticed already yesterday that adding new words to t9 doesn't work It could be an issue with the rom we are using. Would be nice to have some feedback from anyone with a different rom...
yes.. pretty poor nobody on the ROM thread could give me an answer :/ I will play a little with the registry and file from ezSIP maybe I'll find another "solution"

icon problems

im trying to change my icons on the manila but only some of them change does anyone know how to fix this proble thanks
Which icons have you changed and which ones are not changing?
the weather and the calender changed but the others did not music, internet search, settings, people,home
What program are you using to change the icons?
I have been using cfc-gui to change my icons and they are grouped together depending on what they are (i.e. - tray, hero, people screen, weather screen, etc.).
Are you trying to change your "tray" and "hero" icons or icons within each tab?
no programs just cabs from different people on this site
You're not making the rookie mistake that I made and installing a cab (to change the icons) on top of one that is already installed?
yup, so what do I do? Help me learn
Just uninstall all of them and soft reset. You should be okay.
how do i do that? where do i go
Click the Start button in the upper left hand corner.
Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs
Select a program and click "Remove" in the bottom right hand of the screen.
sorry for the missunderstanding i knwhow to remove programs i want to change the icons but i dont know why only some changed and would like all of them changed
It depends on the cabs. Some people change all of them and some only change some. For instance, my cab that I have installed doesn't change the photo, music, or AT&T tabs because I didn't include them in the changes.
can anyone post these? im trying to change the calendar and history icon under my clock.

No way he can do that
Reason he intalled diferent themes on top of others so soon he uninstalles one wen he gos for the next on there will be an error cause windows will not find a second backup of the original.
Sorry to tell you but you need to hard reset your device.
for anyone trying to modify there manila icons.
Use CFC Gui.
Intructions easy way.
Connect you phone on Sync to you device start CFC GUI should be a options to extract all manila files from you phone.
After that you will see all kind of images change the one you want then send it to you phone from CFC GUI more instruction on CFC Gui threat.
Hope i help you all

So it won't just uninstall what it can "find" and not worry about what it doesn't?
Also, when unintalling a program/theme, how does it know what to revert back to? Are the original files not overwritten/deleted?

Changing pop-up menu

Ok, sorry for my bad explanation here, but:
When you are in the regular WM mail client (no touchflo/sense) and you press and hold on a message you get a pop-up menu.. How can this pop-up be changed??
I had my phone set up with no touchflo before and now after reinstall of the same ROM this menu has changed. I think I must have had touchflo popup but no touchflo otherwise maybe? Can't remember. Sorry for the lame explanation but could someone give me a hint here?
What do I look for to change this? advanced config? TD2 tools? Other? Played aorund with these two, but didn't manage to change it...
soo, you want the manilla popups back, or do you want them gone?
I want them back But no manila otherwise

{problem} you know wich line to add to touchflo exceptions?

Only 1 idea: you should use the original HTC COM3 theme. I have never had the problem that you are describing...
