Silly O2 icon on task bar

OK I have spent a lonley evening searching the forum for the answer on this - if its here I am sorry i cant find it - on my (new today) xda IIi there is an o2 Icon on the task bar - it sits in the most troublesome of places and covers up parts of program headings - it must be simple enough but I canot work out how to get rid of it - I have searched for the icon file itself to get the name and search for a value in the reg but no avail - please help - someone - anyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

o2 icon
hi,

thank you somuch -
that was doing my brain in - what possesed them eh? - tell me that!!!!!
once again - thnks- it was the only thing PISSING ME OFF SO FAR

o2 icon
no probs........here 2 help

You can actually just tap and hold for a second or so on the icon, and a menu appears with a slide bar...letting you move the icon wherever you want it, that's if you want to keep it anyway.
I just cancelled the install of that all that O2 Active rubbish.

As I've stated before in here, I quite like the version that's on the 2i as it allows you to have different themes without it looking crap. Some of the features on this version are quite useful as well.
I've always wanted a screen that makes use of all aspects of the screen as it would a normal Nokia mobile, for example with battery life up the side and signal strength up the other, with some space to actually show the picture you've chosen.
I don't suppose anyone's found anything like that recently have they? I gave up looking 6 months ago!
Cheers
Anthony

battery on title bar

ok i just flashed my phone to the new t-mobile rom from their site i hae the mda back before i flashed it i did a few things to it and now i cant find those things but here it is maybe someone can help ok i want my battery to be on the tittle bar instead of the bottom right corner also the time use to be on the same line on the home screen as the date. i also had this speed dial app on my homescreen wich i can assign pictures to but when i didnt have pictures they were just blue buttons with the name on it. i believe i got these from this sight but this was way back in like may and i cant seem to find them

where is this new ROM? do u have an URL?
I just wanna get rid of that battery logo

Are you sure you got the right one? As what I can see from their site, here
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_vario.html
It seems that they dont seems to have any new ROM. Can you try soft reseting it and copy down all the numbers you see on the first screen?
As with the speedial, did you put that in?

yes i put the speed dial in i found it on here and i had also found everything else on here

Would be nice for the rest who reads this to know what you're answer was
The Speeddial plugin is indeed available on this forum. It's a standard plugin from the Treo WM versions..
You can change the icon on the top of your screen by changing the registry:
To show battery:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 0
To show the clock:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 1

Ok. I was sooooooo confused with ademoc first post.
What I perceived was `ademoc got a new ROM from T-Mobile which removed all the AKU annoying battery meter and also included a speeddial in Today screen`. Guess I was dreaming.
Anyway, for others, he just flashed his phone and wanted to get all the software he got previously. So help.
ademonc, it is VERY strange that your battery meter is NOT on your top right. If the ROM you are using is the lastest ROM, you should have your battery on the top instead. You may want to try upgrading your ROM again with the file downloaded from T-Mobile webpage. It is not a very straight forward and easy thing to remove the battery meter from the top task bar. There are tons of thread here just to solve that 1 problem.
Anyway, as for your speed dial, here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=919871#263842
ademonc, again, as I said in my previous post, can you soft reset your phone and write down the numbers you get from the 1st screen, just to double check you have the correct ROM. Or, go to Start - Settings - System - Device Information

thanks for yourhelp every one and the rom i just flashed my phone with is from the t-mobile website

will this version work on qvga (240x240)? i remember the last version wasn't soo......? lol

missing link
The program looks good and it feels good. Maybe I'll make a mistake but (MDA TOUCH, WM6) The phone button responds with a error (File not found \windows\vtkey.exe). Same error when trying to use the battery button, \windows\power.exe.
Is there a solution ?

Now all we need is an iphone like photo viewer, what you can navigate with your fingertips..
Any idea?

Yes its different for most devices/Os's so go into the \windows folder and find out which files do what and simply change the config1.txt file

NICE APP
Grumps,
VERY NICE APP. I am using it and it is great. Works well with S2U2 version too. My input for cometics only:
a. Can we put the operator name closer to the signal bar? This will allow room for other indicators such as Wifi and BT.
b. Can we have BT and Wifi indicator on the top bar? These two will make the SW going from COOL to WHOA!!!!!
Thanks and cant wait for your next release.

I can the only problem is what do we do if the operator name is too long mine is HSDPA Vodacom SA and I made it so its just fits??
If i make it smaller it might say HSDPA Vodaco or something and ill hear more people crying? Any suggestions
And yes only QVGA, I dont have a VGA device to develop with sorry

This is a great app except...
There's no animation when you launch something. Or highlight. So sometimes you press again while waiting for something to start up.
Can we please get some sort of feedback when it's accepted the fact you pressed a button? Not sure how this works on the fruit based phone but I'm sure there should be some feedback.
Thanks.

ok just want to say great app.
here are some suggestion for you on the next version.
add scrolling to the app so if you want to add more icons on one page you can.
let it pick up default icons from the programs so you don't have to waste anytime on picking an icon for it. (but you can if you want too.)
scroll with finger to go right or left to go to the next page.
i have some other ideas and i would like to share it with you. if you are interested please P.m.
thanks,

the changelog says it has animations now. I just can't see any. What is meant by "animation added"?
Great work anyways.
BTW: Being able to scroll only one of the horizontal lines from left to right would be great, for, let's say, less important apps. So you have 3 rows of static buttons and just one row that can be scrolled by finger gestures... Saw that on iPhone, looked amazing...

I Concur
IMO, it would be great to have a scrolling launch page. Either horizontal or vertical. Also, annimation and vibrate with icon color change to reflect program choice.
Does the calendar icon keep up with the actual date??
Thanks,
CG

Thanks for such a GREAT app - assigned a button to it and it works like a charm. I do have one question \ request: is it possible to move the title bar elements up a bit? I use an app to hide the Windows Start bar and the softkeys (it is one of Vijay's tools) and your app then acts as my home page for most running applications (there are a few exceptions but overall it works great). The only issue is that the elements on your app (clock, battery, signal indicator, etc.) are a little low (2 pixels or so) so things look a little "off". I was hoping it was or could be a user changable setting.
Please don't take this as a complaint! Your app, combined with S2U2 provide an excellent UI experience. Thanks again for such excellent work.

Good idea to assign it to a button, I was trying to figure out how to integrate it better as a complete solution. Only problem is that on the Touch there is only really one button I can use and I was using it for the Full Screen Keyboard and to hold it down to get voice dial. I'm sure I'll work something out though.
I saw the link in the first post talking about how to get the .lnk files right and I assume that means for the Phone/Calc/etc which do not have .exes that I can easily find. I'll do some research to get that working.
Thanks for a great app!

Thanks for the info

Grumps,
Thanks for the info. I can see the name is an issue. If it is moved left align one space right after the signal strength then it will be good even with the longer operator name. If it is done that way, then if the BT and WiFi indicators are needed, that is when they are turned on, then they can be arranged to the left of the clock. These will cover the last portion of the long operator name but I think it will be acceptable because many things operate in the same manner due to the fact that there is not enough space for everything.
Thanks again for this VERY NICE APP. IT ROCKS!

System Tray Applications

How Can i add the application shortcuts to the System Tray ( Like in wisebar )
Regards

No reply this far
is it possible or not ? anybody!!

Nobody?
is it really there is no way to put applications on system tray?

I can't answer your question because I don't know what you want. If you want an application to be on the taskbar only you have to write it yourself. Don't know what you mean by "putting an application on the taskbar" - what should the icon do there?
Add more details to your question and someone might answer.

System Tray
I want to add an icon in the system tray ( NOT taskbar!) Which means - I want access the system tray to run some freqly used applications (ofcourse my choice) is it clear now

You mean you want to add shortcuts to the lower bar of the today screen?

Yes!
Yes, that's it- You are right. But till now nobody answer it!!

still nobody?
its is a surprise that nobody has the answer for me?

may be describe what you want some more?
i just read this thread and still i'm not 100% sure what you are trying to do.

Okay, then let me describe what he wants:
If you disable TouchFlo3D, you've got the two shortcuts at the bottom of your today screen. Just above them, there is the so called systray, similar to the tray in Windows XP oder Vista, where any program may place its symbol. In times of WM2003 there used to be a bluetooth icon down there as well as an icon to change your screen rotation.
The alternative would be a today plugin, placing some icons as shortcuts, such as Launcher oder MortButtons.

yes the same
i have an exe and want to put it in the system tray (im not using touchflow3d) i have a visible system tray. how can i?

Maybe this one might be something for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540158

I have the same icon but for O2 and as far as i know that is the icon that allows you access to the provider settings request system from the start menu. If i'm right it's created when the sim card is installed by windows so you can easily update the gsm settings and tbh i think it's persistant so you can't get rid of it and if you change sim cards the icon should change too.
I could be wrong on this but if i were you i wouldn't worry about it and just ignore it. It's not doing any harm.

yes that's right that's what it does I just don't want it there lol

i don't think there is anything you can do about it because it was in that exact same place in wm5, 6, 6.1, 6.5 and it's in the same spot in the latest energy 6.5.5 rom. This makes me think we have no control over it at all and just forgetting it exists is probably for the best (and good for your blood pressure )
