Touch Commander totally messed up my phone

I installed Touch Commander, as the adverts looked promising, but I did not like it at all and uninstalled it immediately. Unfortuntely it has changed the way my Start menu looks, now the list is longer and the program names are smaller, also the list of the last used programs has disappeared completely. This is a nasty little program which also left a hand icon in my windows settings, which, when i click it gives me an error message. Could anyone please help me get the original start menu back? I couldn't find anything in Settings, it must have modified a registry setting.

to enable thr large start menu setings/system/touchflo/ then check large start menu. as for the hand i have no idea

Thanks mate, that did the trick, it also disabled other things but I managed to restore them. The hand icon in the settings doesn't bother me too much.

Open Start Menu with left Softkey

Hi there,
I have a big problem with my Softkeys on the X1. By default left and right softkeys are assigned to calendar and contacts... but this does not match with my interests
By changing "left softkey" to "Start Menu" in "buttons" (or "keys", don't know exactly, because I use a german firmware), it opens the start menu... so far so good, but: It always opens the start menu. No matter what a menu says. "Close" e.g. does not close the screen, it opens the start menu
Now I'm useing a tool (called "remap softkeys") and changed the right softkey to comm manager, which works pretty well. Unfortunately I don't know, which command opens the start menu.
My target configuration opens the Comm Manager with the right softkey and the start menu with the left softkey in the homescreen. All options in all other screens which are dedicated to the left and right softkey should be kept.
I hope you can help me

Ok here's the file you need. Unzip and Map the softkey with the prog you have to Startmenu.exe. I am using this as well. The EXE is NOT made by me, unfortunately I can't find the site where I downloaded it anymore... Anyway it's freeware. Enjoy.

Thanks
Works perfectly! This is exactly what i've been looking for.
Thank you very much

You could have a look at X1BC or my X1ButtonMapper. These programs give you a lot more options regarding button remapping and they are small and for free.

Drop down menu's

Hi All,
today i installed SPB Pocket Plus, a great app, but when i want to customize it, i experienced a problem, i could not view items in a drop down menu, it just shows 1 item and could not select another.
For example; when i want to change the Tab header position, it give me a dropdown menu, default is 'On Top', but i could not select another
could i change the settings for a dropdown menu in the registry, of is there somewhere a fix for it?
Using a Deepshining ROM with WM 6.5.
Thanks in advance!

i had the exact same problem which look like to be a rom issue but you can use the down arrow on the d-pad,it'll get u to the next option

when i press on the Down button on the d-pad. nothing happens.
There must be a registry tweak to modify the length of the dropdown menu.
looks like the SPB software modified is, because when i remove it, i could change 'button behaviour' . after installing SPbs software i couldn't.
when typing a character when the dropdown menu is selected it will change it., so defenately the length of the menu is not set correctly.

it used to work for me but all of theat was gone when i updated my rom,ofcourse i don't suggest that u do that for such a minor issue

it used to work for me but all of that was gone when i updated my rom,ofcourse i don't suggest that u do that for such a minor issue,sorry posted twice.

HELP!!! My Homepage is gone!!

Hello.
I need your help:
I downloaded one program where you move your finger to the left (or right) on home screen, 12 (or 16) squares pop up (where, I think, you have 3 different wallpapers, and 3 themes,...) and after setting one theme (I think the 3rd or 4th square on the top), I LOST MY HOMESCREEN and I can't find it
What do I do???

remove the programe u installed..an reset leo

I don't know where it installed

go to settings> application> remove programs then select the name of what you want to uninstall and click "remove"
soft reset when that's done

That's the problem...I don't have "settings" anymore...everything is gone It looks like the whole "sense" is gone and all its goodies...

what happens if you press the "start" hard key? does that bring anything up? If it does you can get to the settings from there

I'm looking at the thread i posted earlier and it seems I'm stuck on the 3rd screen, because I also have only "phone" and "contacts" on my two soft touch keys...I can't go back to my main screen and even when I uninstalled that program (which I only presume was the right one), it's still the same...

so it looks like you *may* have disabled sense? Easily re-enabled as long as we can find a way to get you to your settings... Have you tried the start hard key at all? Otherwise, then I'd suggest hard-reset as the easiest option unless someone else can come up with any other suggestions

Yes, my hard key works, but the whole "settings" are missing, when I click "settings" it comes up the same as it did before, when I clicked "tools"... I managed to find "remove programes", but even after deleting everything that might have affected my home screen, it still doesn't work...

hmmm then I don't know I'm afraid, you might want to wait for someone else to suggest something else or just go for a hard reset

Thanks anyway, I hope I won't have to hard reset...

"to get back to TF3D, you can MaxTTM and do a TRefresh or the usual manual way of activating your Today items" <---- how do I do that?

You should be able to cable to phone to your PC, then uninstall the problem app using activesync/WMDC. Not sure if you've already tried this?

forgive me if im not entirely getting what ure problem exactly is. take it sense is gone and you can't get at settings because the settings link in start menu only links to the sense page. if you install bsb tweaks found here on xda there is an option to show original settings in start menu. do this and soft reset if the program prompts. now you should have manilla settings and settings in your start menu. go to settings then today settings. then on the items tab check that sense and only sense is ticked. click ok and fingers crossed it should be back.

WORKING!!! Thanks to all of you!!

Startup tab in Task Manager empty??

After a routine and uneventful upgrade to W10 Home from 8.1, and with no issues or problems encountered (so far), I can't understand why the Startup tab in Task Manager will not show anything. I still have all the programs that I had in 8.1 and I have installed a few new things since the upgrade, but Startup tab only has a greyed out "there are no startup items to display".
Anybody else seeing this???
Well.......if just a few of you reading this post (67 now), would kindly look at your startup tab in Task Manager and tell me whether yours is also empty or whether it is populated normally w/ programs that are going to run at startup, I would appreciate it. That's why I ask the question.......thanks.

Mine is not empty and after the upgrade the startup programs remains as in 8.1..
Can't you even add a shortcut to startup folder (C:\Users\[YOUR_USER_NAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup) ?

You can add apps by scrolling on the ones you want to add in the program list (after hitting the start menu) and right clicking on them and selecting "pin to start menu." Once they are in the start menu you can drag them wherever you want by holding down on the left button of your mouse. You can asleep resize them by right clicking on your mouse and selecting resize. Your frequently used apps will populate as you go and those too are movable. Hope that helps you.
