How to make the clock show in the taskbar all the time?

I found the setting to show the clock whilst in a program, and that's nice. However I would like it to show in the taskbar all the time. Is there any way of doing this?
I came across this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...ays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=lvmtime&start=0
But it seems to only show the clock sometimes, and when it is shown the volume icon is shown as muted when it is not.
So does anyone know how to make the clock show in the taskbar all the time? A registry hack perhaps?
Thanks.

the lvm time works fine with me. it just covers the battery icon on the Today screen.

Well as I said, it occasionally shows the battery icon, occasionally the clock - I haven't worked out when it shows which, but it isn't showing the clock all the time for me.

If you use PocketPlus with it's bar-like battery meter, you don't need default batt icon at all

Anjow, I found that my clock was not visible and came here to find a solution. I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=278745 and set the registry entry to '1' (DWORD) as it was set to '0' (DWORD). You'll need to do a (soft) reset of your device for this to take effect, but let us know if this does what you want, or what the value is at the moment.

To show battery:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 0
To remove battery:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 1

There's a registry tweak you can do to make both date and time to show on the taskbar without having to have a special program installed to do it. There is a section under developments in this forum giving many tricks for WM5.
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell
add new binary

Battery AND clock?
is there any way to have both the battery and clock on the menu bar or are they mutually exclusive?
thanks, coj.

this would be really interesting!! I am curious as well!!

Remove Battery icon?

So many threads coming up with a search. Can someone easily tell me how to remove the battery icon from the top bar in my Orange SPV 3100
Many thanks.

HTCustom does it easy. There are links all over for it. Although if you remove it the blank spot also covers up the "sound" icon and part of the reception icon
Well wait. I just noticed you said battery. Default there is the clock. So you've changed it before? HTCustom will still let u change this (UI tab i believe) but it sounds like you've changed it before.

I haven't done much - I have just allowed user information on the screen, which takes care of the clock, as this now shows in the "today" area. The battery icon has replaced where the time was on the top bar. I will try HTcustom and see what happens!! thanks for the help.

How to modify registery?

In the official WM5 ROM from I-Mate the battery icon is shown on the title bar and clock is hidden beneath it. Is there a way to bring it down to systray and make the clock visible? Please help.

download Batti v2.1 from http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/batti.shtml and install it on your universal. In the settings for the app, uncheck "Show Battery Icon in Top Bar". That will display the clock in the top bar!
download Battery Watch v1.03 from http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/batterywatch.shtml and install it on your universal to get the battery icon on your systray!
They're both freeware, so, enjoy!!

I found the answer to the part of my question at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry about adding battery icon to systray and I would like similar procedure for its removal from title bar. Thanks for your help I will be certainly using your addon untill I get my desired answer. Thanks a lot once again.

I would recommend having Batti as a must-have application if you like battery stats! The rest is up to you of course, i always prefer moderate-functionality apps to messing with the registry myself! They're small, easier to handle, removable and just provide more functionality that reg-editting!!

I used Batti but it didn't removed battery icon. What happens is that when app installs it is already configured not to show battery icon but the icon shows so I enabled it just to give a try and as a result two icons were shown then I unchecked it and only the new icon went away. The original icon remained there. Registery hack is a must!!!

weird, now i'm wondering how i got rid of the battery icon I'll let you know if i figure that out

That's really very nice !!!!! Figure it out soon please !

Still awaiting response. Please somebody help me soon.

Tray battery icon

Does anyone know how to remove the small 4 segment battery icon from the lower tray in the today screen. I don't really see the point in it existing with the one in the upper taskbar being there already.
I've already checked for running tasks, as well as startup programs for a program which may be creating the icon, but I can't seem to find anything suspicious. I think it must be part of a hidden process which I can't seem to find.
I have searched the SEX1 forums extensively and not founf anything relating to the icon in question. I can try and take screenshots if anyone is unsure about the specific icon I am talking about.
For reference, i'm currently using Norti's excellent "nX1i v1.04" rom.
Thanks in advance for any responses/solutions you may have.

It is there so that if you have the clock displayed at all times in the title bar, there still is a battery indicator (By displaying the clock in titlebar you lose the battery icon). Anyway here's how to remove it: Get yourself a registry editor and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power\ShowIcondword to 0. Then Softreset. The icon will be gone IF it's this one. Of course it is possible that on your ROM there is another software installed which produces the icon, but I don't guess that.

Yay, finally gone!
Thanks for that, it's always the simple things you forget to do, like searching the registry. Now that i've got the panels button mapped to the start menu too, this may well be my favourite device yet. I think I may like it even more than my HTC Diamond...
