Is there any way to create icons for movies that i load onto my phone? I like the way HTC did the transformers icon to get to the transformer movies, but how can i create one for another movie?
I was trying to find or create something of the same
The Easiest way I would say is Creat the icon and then point the reg to use that icon.

Would you mind explaining a little further? How would one do that? Sounds like a great idea

Well The first thing I did was search the internet for a base png file, Then I used Gimp to edit the file to fit what I wanted to use it for. HERE is a good start. Once you have your icon, you drop it into your windows folder.
Second You need to create a shortcut to file, I use Total commader to create the .lnk file and put that in the windows folder. After your icon is done and in the windows folder with the lnk file you need to point the reg to the lnk file. Below is an example of the reg setting I use for my calculator icon
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Tools\Calculator.lnk]
"Icon"="\\windows\\Start_Icon_Calc.png"
Now this is just to get you started. Once you get better at it you can create from scratch with diff programs link photoshop or such.

So I happened across this thread from a search, what I am trying to do is create a launcher icon from scratch for my movies, for example I have Hellboy 2. I would like to create an icon with a Hellboy image and when pressing it, will start Hellboy 2. Is this possible using the method mentioned above and if it is what else do I need to do? Thanks for any info provided

Yes for the most part it will work. the main thing is making the shortcut to the movie file and then making the reg to match

Ok I have the shortcut to the movie and the .png I created all in the windows folder. The part I am stuck at is the .reg file. I want the movie icon to appear in multimedia, no when navigating there using the path you listed above I see all the .lnk reg files for the various programs in multimedia. I try to add a value and when doing so it's not coming out like the ones listed. This is the step that I'm hung up on.
And thanks for providing the info

Ok I think I missed a step. Sorry about that. What you need to do is find your short cut in windows folder and move it to windows\start menu\Programs\Multimedia and then reboot once you have the lnk in the folder and the reg set
You know what I actually just made a shortcut of the movie and copied it to the multimedia folder in my start menu and then used JWMD Icon Changer to change the icon to the one I created and problem solved. Clicking it starts the movie just like the Transformers Shortcut does. Is that essentially what following this method is?

Sweet, thanks for providing the info, I may set up the reg though so that I can have it created and done during XDA_UC for a new flash.
But I would not have thought of doing that for my movies until this thread lol. I always figured it would be more complicated.
found this little app that might be a better alternative for some. I haven't tested it out much yet so use at your own risk:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520604
run the cab file, then open the program, it doesn't scroll so you will have to use the arrow buttons in the cab. Point it to your media folder, for me that was storage card (which it defaults to), My Documents, My Videos). then click the left soft key (settings) and click on make startup folder.
Then anytime you click on the app, it opens straight to your video folder. C
Click on a movie and press open (or double press on the movie) and it starts playing in the htc video player. Press stop on the movie and it goes to a blank screen, press back and you are back to your movie list.
I tried to resume a movie but that froze my phone.
The reason I am trying this is that my wife and file explorer do not get along so if I can find a way for her to access her movies easily, all of us will benefit. If this app seems to buggy then I guess I can do it your way. Great idea.

I'm wondering if by using mortscript you can create shortcuts for files, that might be a good idea. Esp if you can create a movie folder in your multimedia folder that is just for movies. Time to play with mortscript.
Or you could just create a shortcut lnk with the following contents
Code:
35#"fexplore.exe" \Storage Card\Movies
So it just opens file explorer in that folder, this also works with resco, you just have to substitute the resco path and exe for fexplore.exe, just remember that the number before the "#" is the number of characters after the "#", this includes spaces.
So for instance "fexplore.exe" would be 14#"fexplore.exe"
Once you have the shortcut in your start menu, you can of course change the icon with your favorite icon changer ...
EDIT:
Alternatively if you were to say create a lnk with the info below it would open the movie.mp4 in whatever it's default program is
Code:
45#"fexplore.exe" \Storage Card\Movies\movie.mp4
EDIT2:
Attached is a zip with a Movies.lnk, unzip it drop it in your \windows\start menu\programs it will then show up in cht to create quicklinks if you like.
Of course with this example you have to have a folder on your storage card called Movies, but you can edit it as I said above to make it a link straight to a file.

Hi, I would like to know how to move application to folders created in programs. Thanks
using total commander, go to /windows/start menu/programs
in there you can create new folders, add /move shortcuts and so forth
the read-only attributes need to be changed first for the standard proggies before you can move them
You also can create folders in "Office Mobile".
I have in \windows\start menu\ the following folders and sub-folders with various apps:
Office mobile
------Finance
------Games
------Multimedia
------Navi+Comms
------Office
------Reference
------System
Programs
------PI Utils
------Utilities
------SBSH Utils
------Tool box
For the standard programs I think you actually need to change the registry and not just the read-only status. Search here in the forum as this has been covered somewhere - I have seen it but don't have the link.

I have a similar grouping and nope, attributes will do it fine
BTW, I can recommend Quickmenu for a regular winXP style startmenu (check the wiki for the link) with cascading folers

Thanks - I stand corrected. I had read elsewhere that the registry needs changing. Thinking about that now, I think this referred to the Office Mobile folder.
How abt the those applications install and create in the program page. I wish to move them to a existing folder, like I've pocket UNO installed on the program page but I wish to move it to the game folder that already exist there.

Thanks alot
I'd like to set "all" as the favorite album in the TF3D photo tab so it just displays all the photos I've taken (I have about 100 pics separated by folder under \storage card\pictures\) The problem is when I do that it puts other pics like the icon's for Angelusz's landscape fix at the top of the thumbs list.
Is there a way to either hide certain album's(folder's) from HTC Album's view, or a way to make it only look at the storage card and not at the phone itself?
if you get an answer.... please repost!!!!
having same issue.
looking to not show in the 'albums' section a specific folder that has images in it.
and in the same token, making these (same) pics not be available through the 'see-all' feature.
trying to not have 'accidental' display of pics no need to make them "hidden-files" because then one wouldn't be able to view them when needing to.
can there be a limit set to the viewer and how 'deep' it searches for images? maybe they can be placed in a series of sub-folders that are so many deep, that the viewer does not look for....?
yeah this is a big problem if you have tomtom because it loads all of those pics

The simplest solution is to change the properties to hiddend for the image files you do not want to see in the tab.
There is also a reg patch to exclude particular folders but i dont know the details

If anyone has more information on this reg patch, I'd like to know more.
Also as Angelusz pointed out to me in another thread the HTCAlbum doesn't search the windows directory, so I've been dumping wallpapers ect. in there whenever I can. The big downside to this is the amount of time it takes the X1 to load the windows directory, especially when your trying out several wallpapers.
Key
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAlbum\Ignored
(if ignored doesn't exist: create it)
Make a new String Value and give it any name
example: igo
set the Data for the new value to the full path of the folder to be ignored
example: \Storage Card\iGO8
(note: all sub-folders will be ignored as well)

Great, thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the info! But there is an issue
Hello -
i tried your suggestion, but it didn't quite work.
i have the HTC fuze -
i created a folder in the storage card called ddd, then went to the registry and followed your suggestion, but when i go to the camera, and select the soft-key for albums, there are some options called "all" and "camera shots" that still reveal the contents of the whole phone. and the folders that contain the images that are to be kept away from accidental viewing, are already located on that folder 'ddd' on the storage card. how do i delete the "all"/"camera shots" feature form the album viewer, or better yet, how do i keep some pictures from coming up in their individual folders in the same viewer.
sorry to be a pest, but if there's anywhere else to get good info on this matter...it'd be here.
thanks for the help!!
works for me, thanks
Hello all,
Took receipt of my HD today and for the most part i'm loving it...there is however a few things bothering me, and i'm hoping someone can help?
1> How do i create new folders for images, music, ringtones etc?
2> How do i then move things to the relevant folders?
3> How do i get album info for music if i dont already have it?
4> How do i resize an image and save it as wallpaper so it fits?
Thanks for any help you can give....
wallpapers - look under the themes / apps sections section
move folders - use 3rd party file explorer (deafult explorer won't let you expore windows folder ... ) or through active sync / explore - most of the programs can be found in /windows /start menu or programs - just drag and drop .... make new folders etc etc.....
sms tones should be copied directly to windows folder on the phone ..... ringtones, they seem to be stored in my documents / my ringtones on the phone
images - default seems to be in storage card DCIM blah blah blah
as for 3 & 4 ...not sure... but A search on the forums will help you through the other problems you stated
hope this helps....

1. Use one of the file explorers used. Work on same process as file exporer on your pc.
If using File explorer to, to create a new folder press File > New Folder or hold down stylus/finger > new folder
If using Total Commander, press file icon with + on it
All ringtones should be saved to either /windows/Rings or Storage Card/My Documents/My Ringtones. Obviously less space taken up on computer is stored on storage card
2. To move things, select and hold down them by either using finger or stylus. Window should pop and select send to
4. Try reading a few of these threads

Make sure the MP3 tags + album pics are in order on your PC before transfering it to your HD. Use any ID3Tag editor to do this. Once the info is correctly set up in the MP3 files, it should show up in the musicplayer.
Thanks to you all for the replies, i've managed to do most of the stuff i needed to...just one more thing though, i got a HD because of its size hoping my big sausage fingers would be able to use the keyboard, and although i still can it could be easier, is there a way of turning the keyboard to landscape rather than portrait as default?

Latest manila versions and roms you can rotate 90 degrees to landscape so you have option of both portarit and landscape.
Also, for example Duttys latest roms he has an application called FlipIt (do a search) where you can select rotation angles for apps, so you could actually set certain apps to only work in landscape.
I read in this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583638
that you can enable some hidden games, and I really like those games but I can't seem to enable them! can anyone get me on the right track?
You need to give more of a clue as to what part you are finding difficult!
If you go to file explorer you should be able to browse to the windows directory on your device and then copy the games you are after using a long insert on the screen.
Navigate to the startmenu folder and then long insert on the screen and select paste as shortcut and all shoul be well.
Hope this helps.

You should have asked in that thread. Its a case of browsing to the .exe in the windows folder. Long press on it then copy. Go to \windows\start menu\programs\games. long press in blank spave and paste shortcut.
read the hints and tips thread. The very first tip tells you how to get them showing in the games folder
mmmm i was just about to say a similar thing...
To ask in the other thread didn't seem appropriate for some reason...
ah, sorry, I see it now.
1 more question though... I found the files, and I made quick links to them, somewhere easily reachable in the finder. how can I get my phone to see those files in the games-directory? to put it another way: when I hit the 'games' button in the start-menu, I want to see those 2 games too... any pointers?
copy the quick links into
Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games
and there you go
you need to use a program like resco file manager or total commander and change the file properties to unhide them, so they will appear in the games folder, otherwise they will be in the folder but hidden.
I deleted the following shortcuts "Transformers", "MobiTV", "Market Place" and "YouTube" from Windows/Start Menu/Program, thinking they were redundant since they were already on the home screen. But while the icons are still on the home screen, I can't get to the four programs by tapping on the icons; instead, I got the error message about "Shortcut Target" saying "Error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename".
I was able to find the "MobiTV" and "Transformers" folders, but I could not create shortcuts from the .exe files since the "Create shortcut" was gray and did not respond to taps. My questions are: (1) How do I re-create those four shortcuts that would make the icons on the home screen work again? and more generally, (2) How do I create shortcuts (gray-colored) for any .exe files? Any suggestions and help will be much appreciated.
I know that the "Total Commander" app let's you create links where File Explorer doesn't, but I've never actually messed with that part of the app very often.
Tons of folks are complaining about the movie icon, as far as I know no one has found a way to fix it once you break it
You got it the wrong way round.
First, click on "Copy" option for the exe file that you wish to make a shortcut.
Then go to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, click on "Menu", the option "Paste shortcut" should be available now.
Re-created shortcut for MobiTV, but not for the other three
After seeing your answer, I realized I should have performed them on my HD2, instead of on my synced desktop PC! As long it is a .exe file, a shortcut can always be created for it on Windows program page by using the method you described. Thanks Zentury!
However, I could only recover (re-create) the shortcut for MobiTV since it is a single .exe file. I could not even find where the .exe files are for YouTube and Market Place to re-create the shortcuts for them... As for Transformers, since it is a folder with two .exe files, I could only create shortcuts for each of the two separately on Windows program page, and the icon on the home screen still does not work. Any ideas?

As for the Transformer Shortcuts use the cab posted, The other exe your looking for are in the windows folder on the phone. You Could always reinstall marketplace, for that shortcut.
Thanks for the attached .cab file! I downloaded the .cab file for Transformers but am wondering where should I put it: in the Device or in the Storage Card, and in what folder?
I did find Market Place and YouTube folders only in the Device's Windows folder, but where are the .exe files for them?! In Market Place folder, there is only one tiny file called ClientLog0 (263B); and in YouTube folder, there are four folders and hundreds jpeg files.... I did the search on my desktop PC for files in HD2 and know there is one YouTube.exc but don't know which specific folder it is in... Without getting to these .exe files, I don't know how to restore/reinstall the shortcuts for them. Please kindly advise. Thanks.

it doesnt matter where you copy the cab file do as long as you know where it is, once it is on the device use the file explorer to find it and run it. Try this cab for the other 2 link files
I tried the Transformers.cab on my Device but failed to install because of "not sufficient system permissions". Earlier, I found Transformers.lnk in Device Windows and paste it on Windows/Start Menu/Program. Tapping on the home screen Transformer button will take me to the two Transformers movies, but I lost the nice Transformers icon on the home screen; instead, I only got the boring old Windows icon in its place. How do I get the nice Transformers icon back on the home screen?
I got YouTube shortcut back to work OK now, but Marketplace shortcut still does not work. The .cab file for Marketplace installed without any error message ("successfully installed on your device") and the Marketplace icon stays on the home screen, but tapping on it does not take me to its web page. Can you suggest anything I can try? Thanks again.

I would just reinstall the marketplace cab and that should fix it. Not real sure on the icon.
I reinstalled the Marketplace.cab file a few times on my Device, still no luck - tapping on its icon on the home screen won't point to the right web page, only the same error message... The strange thing to me is there seems no .exe file for Marketplace on the device, so ... how did it ever get started?

Hi, just catching up with the latest on your problem resolution. (Note: I'm on the other side of the ocean.)
I took a look at the contents of Marketplace.lnk on my HD2 and the file location is "\Windows\WMMarketplace.exe".
Thank for taking the time to look it up - now I know why I couldn't find its .exe file on the device: it's WMMarketplace.exe, not just Marketplace.exe! Next time when I do the "search", I will use the wild card symbol * in the search string. Some valuable lesson learned!
Anyway, the shortcut problem for Marketplace was solved last night after I found another Marketplace.cab (116kB) provide by zelendel in another earlier xda forum thread. The youtube & marketplace.cab file I've been using and did not work is only about 2kB in size so apparently was not a good .cab file.
The only remaining "missing shortcut" problem I have is now changed to "missing icon" for Transformers on the home screen. The two Transformers.cab files I got from the xda forum all have the error message "not sufficient system permissions" when I tried to install them. Since the installations were "unsuccessful", the ugly blank-look icon in place for Transformers on the home screen still keeps staring back at me ...
Anyone got a Transformers.cab to share that would not cause the "unsuccessful" verdict and would restore the nifty Transformers icon on the home screen? Thanks!
Ive just downloaded that Transformers cab thinking it was going to the movie file or some funky robotic program and all i got was a shortcut leading to nothing??
Hmm, now how the hell do i remove it? Ive deleted the cab file but the shortcut is still visible on the start menu.

You probably aren't running the Tmo ROM, right? The transformers link only opens up the player for the movies that are provided to tmo owners on the included 16GB SD card...so all you did was indeed install a "link to nowhere".
You'll need to navigate to /windows/start menu on the phone, and delete the "transformers.lnk" file there.
there is an app on freewarepocketpc.net called "LnkMgr", that you can use to create shortcuts ...
works ok ..
