1. You must enable "Footprints" in your "Home screen tab" (Home -> menu -> Personalize home screen tab)
2. You can now put a "Footprints" as your quick link adding by touching the empty quick link and go to "programs"
3. After you add it on quick link you can again go to: Home -> menu -> Personalize home screen tab and then remove "footprints" from "Personalize home screen tab")
4. Go back to HOME and VOILA...footprints are on quick link BUT not on "Home screen tab"

wow... nicely done mate...

ahh... but it now doesn't open up once i remove the individual tab.....
i wonder why that is?? anyone else wanna take a jab at it??

hmmm...i see now...
dunno where is the problem...with tweeter is the same problem...

yea... shoot.. it was close though... great effort... but i recall reading somewhere about people "creating" shortcuts via registry edits... is there a way to do this??

Program in Homescreen

Hello,
I want to put a program to the homescreen.
Can any body tell me how to do that?
I have a custom program and i can only start it from programs or the startmenu.
I want to put it on the home screen so that i can start i from there.
I hope someone can tell me that.
Regards,
Peter
You mean, as a Today Plugin?
If yes, well, that's a little more complicated A Today plugin is a DLL, so completely different than an executable: as a first general step, forget about anything else than C++.
For everything else, have a look here.

I think you must use a launcher plugin, like orchid shortcut.

You can use cLaunch or Battery Status to put programs on the home screen.

Home screen with battery status and cLaunch. I used bs to put programs in the bottom system tray, camera, messaging, clear temp, etc. I used cLaunch to put numerous other programs on the home screen. One tap of the program icon will open that program.
I have a little question, how i can add easy shortcuts to the home screen ? I read you do it with batterystatus buth i see not that option there. Thnx for any help
Go to settings->Today screen->Items->Find BatteryStatus->click on it->you'll get "options" button on the right->click it, and find Tray icons tab on the bottom.

Change LockScreen & StartMenu Background

Title says it..
I have Manila 2.1 and I don't see the option to change the background for the start menu and lockscreen anywhere.
I know it's possible under settings/all settings/today - select - Use this as background: browse.. but it won't list any pictures. Only certain resolutions? Or file type?
Maybe there's a registry key?
Thanks.

Should be under settings tab in manila under personalize.
Nope, that's a manila 2.5 feature.
Its been awhile.
Check out Auto Wallpaper Changer.
Changes Lock screen, S2U2 and Home.

Hi.
open up start menu,and find "pictures & videos", (not "album"). open that and find the pic u want as the background. open the picture and select menu(bottom right) and choose "set as today background",and accept.this should change the background on the start menu and the lock screen background....well that is how i do it. Hope it helps.

have you removed it from the home screen tabs because it takes the icon away from the start menu as well?
tap menu - personalize home screen tabs and see if people is ticked
Oh, yes I had removed it from the tabs! Feel stupid now, but thanks a lot for your help

Just a thought, but have you tried removing the tab (Home page, Menu, Personalise Home Page Tabs) and then re-adding it?
I don't know if that will work, but I suspect it will.
Also, have you done any mods to remove the HTC shortcuts in your startmenu? That does it too.

Maybe you can add manually a shortcut to:
' "\Windows\ManilaShortcut.exe" people/browserlayer/peopleAll'
i have the same problem....i installed miri rom v 10...nothing wrong with it so far except that i can't find the htc people shortcut in the start menu & i don't know how to get it back...and that is really annoying...

Link All Settings on Start Menu

Hi
I've been looking to link the "All Settings" (Start->Settings->More->All Settings) to the Start Menu.

Can you help me please?
Best, HugePan

If you use BsB Tweaks and enable the option "Windows Settings - Show normal settings in start menu" then the settings icon in the start menu goes back to being the classic settings icon (takes you to "all settings").
Instal BSB Tweaks which has a toggle to turn on the 'real' windows settings in start menu.
I know there's another solution to do this, but i don't know where the folder is located to link it on start menu.
I won't install anything additionally for windows settings
Its not a folder to link, it's a control panel item, and therefore isn't easy to link to like programs are.
DO a google on 'links to control panel items windows mobile'
Are you actually saying that you want the settings icon in the start menu to take you to the same thing you get when you click "all settings" on the settings tab?
If so, a 30 second search of this forum turned up this post...

If that's not what you want then can you please explain better?

Anyone know how to Change Order / Remove Tabs after Co0kie is installed?

I've lost the shortcut where I can move order or remove Tabs on the Sense GUI after installing Co0kie. Anyone know how I can do this?
On the home screen, please Menu, Edit quick links... then tap to add/remove quick links, or hold and drag to rearrange quick links...
Is that what your looking for?
I don't think it is mate.
Go to the settings tab and select Personalise, and then Home Screen Tabs.
Thanks John!
Exactly what I need help with though the answers above don't work for me
HD2 with Cookie installed (I inherited it that way)
My menu doesn't have a Personalise Home Tabs and my Settings Tab doesn't have a Personalise option
I my attempts to find where to remove some of the tabs I've changed something so that on the home page instead of seeing the tabs I get cookies home tab
I would like to remove the cookies home tab and be able to edit/remove the standard home tabs
Any ideas ?
