Lock screen problem - HD2 General

hi all. i used the cab file attached to the leo tweak stick post to disable the default lock screen because I wanted to use s2u2. I changed my mind and uninstalled s2u2. I went to app manager to see if I can uninstall the tweak cab but it us not there. so I changed the registry edit it suggests but still no luck. any suggestions on how to get the lock screen back?

Thanks
Mark
try uninstalling an today applet if you install to many it start to remove some from your list
i'm not really sure why but removing an applet which you dont use often make them come back
there is also a regedit way to doing it but i cant recall it
I had a problem like this when I installed My|Phone.
I fixed it by deleting an item from the list in the registry
here is the path to the registry keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items
HTH
Cheers Guys
I found the offending program, it was the MS Theme Generator (trying to design my own skin) ...
Removed that program and all is well, it has re-appeared !
BTW - anyone know what size the background skin should be ? Also - what's the best program to use to 'shrink' a jpeg to the required size ?
Many Thanks
Mark
irfanview is a good free picture viewer and edit (a bit not any photoshop but resizing is ok)
that should let you change the size of your jpg

Removing soft buttons at the bottom (messages calendar thing

Anyone knows how to remove the soft buttons at the bottom of the screen? Find them a waist of space.
I dont mean a program which has this function (wisbar advanced desktop does it) but i am looking for just a cab or reg hack to remove them without having to install unneeded software.

dvl, i don't think this can be done by a reg hack.
When i get around to updating my toggletoday program I'll provide this as an option. But you know this is a per app setting, so I could remove it in the Today screen (I think, not tried!) but not in every app (well I could, but how would you access the menu?)

ohhh
it is only for the today screen..
i need the keyboard thingy in apps of course..
sorry i was unclear.. and yeah i know about your app but then i have to install more then needed..
But if you know a way how to remove it from the today screen i would be very pleased!!

Toggle today is not memory resident, it loads, fixes and quits. Hopefully the WM5 version will be the same if I can help it. But I don't think this can be done in registry (unless there's a key we don't know about).

You can of course edit the registry and delete the keys that contain the paths to the programs, or leave the programs there and use blanks to show up on the screen. The letters will then disappear, but you cannot hide the whole tray and use it as Today space.

Newbie Question - Screen Lock Issue

Installed S2U2 and used this tip to get rid of Manila Auto Screen Lock lockscreen:
27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0, or use the following cab:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...2&d=1258236796 thanks to triperko.
Trouble is.... neither the cab file mentioned above or the regedit works. I now have two lockscreens to get through when turning on the phone.
Can anybody tell me where I'm going wrong please?

Please help me with automatic rotation : )

I've got a problem : when my phone is ringing, the automatic rotation works. So, for example, when I draw the phone out of my pocket to pick-up, it often rotates horizontally and I incidentally press the "hang up" button. I have no idea witch program exactly is causing this, but please tell me how to disable the automatic rotation oh phone ring. I have Gyrator and BSBTweaks installed and I've searched, but I haven't managed to do it.
:? Anyone?
Since you are using Gyrator, you must have set it to rotate all apps. If you don't want your Dialer to rotate automatically, then you must make sure that cprog is included in the exception list.
Rather than use Gyrator, I would suggest you update your registry with the G-Config Whitelist. Just make sure that cprog is not in that list.
You can find the G-Config entries in the link below.

There're s no such thing as an 'exeptions list' in Gyrator, but I don't use it all the time. I suppose the problem is in BSBtweaks - I tried adding "phone" to the rotating apps there and then removing the check-mark, but it didn't work. Then I tried downloading the file you suggested, but even after adding it to the registry the phone would still rotate when someone's calling. I'm starting to feel in a dead end here :/
Check the program (phone / cprog) in BSB Tweaks and then hit the Options softkey below and click on Remove Selected Apps.
Soft Reset and you should be fine. Make sure you that Gyrator does not startup again.
Damn. I did exactly as you told, but it didn't work out. The thing is, even after I remove a program from the "rotation" list in BSBTweaks, it is back there again after soft reset. So I've decided to uninstall the program, then to apply the registry file you mentioned earlier again and then to reset the phone. But even then, when I rotate the phone during a call, the display rotates ;/ I'm starting to wonder if there's something else forcing it to do so, but I'm not in the mood for hard reset ;/
The REG file I linked you to contains most of the programs that people could install that would need rotation INCLUDING the phone.
BSB Tweaks was supposed to help you to remove the phone entry without going into the registry.
Ok, nevermind that.
Uee any registry editor and go to
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList]
Delete "Phone/Lock/Compose/Pictures"="Dialog"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName]
Delete "Phone/Lock/Compose/Pictures"="\\Windows\\cprog.exe"
That should fix it. Make sure that you don't have Gyrator / ChangeScreen / any other rotation program installed.

Disable End Key Lock

I've been scouring the forums with no luck so far, I need a way to disable the lock that is attached to a short press of the End Key on my Touch 2's.
Reg Tweak, app any suggestions welcome, its causing me quite a problem, I want to roll these out for a corporate app and the kiosk I use is not blocking this operation.
Cheers - Sam

Dude,
I've tried doin that but all u're gonna do is invoke the old lockscreen from previous WM version... I think what the other guy wants is totally no lockscreen at all =)
yep
tried that, we really need the lock and screenlock removing so this button does nothing at all
lockscreen dll?
I think that the function is given by dll lockscreen.dll. Tonight I try to replace it and see what happens. We'll let you know later.
hi, I was trying some software in my Touch and I got myself into situation where my phone did not lock up after pressing "power off" button but I was still able to lock the screen using Lock software button/icon. It was simply result of installing S2U2 and configuring it as default lockscreen.
If you perform these steps only known way to return to default state is hard reset!
Install S2U2.
right after installation goto start menu > directory s2u2 > click on S2U2 and it should se itself.
Uninstalll S2U2
in settings > lock set your default lock screen

Well you can recover the original lock screen and everything by downloading this file http://acs2.mstreme.com/download/RestoreWM65DeviceLock.cab.
For more info check s2u2's FAQ, under WM 6.5, "Q. How to restore the WM6.5 built-in lock?", here http://67.43.3.117/~acs2co/S2U2-faq.html
disable in WM6.5 the Key Lock / Keylock at Standby
I find a possibility to deactivate the Key lock in standby at Windows Mobile 6.5 :
with this registry key:
Add a new "DWORD" value
in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Keybd
Name: DeviceLockWhenSuspend
Value: 0
after this take a softreset and have fun
