hi boys... I have one request.
How I do to change icon programs?
Thanks to all.
Found:
Icon Changer!
or use any registry editor and go to following address:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE]\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start
you will see reg keys similar to shortcut's name in windows start menu
choose the one you want to change
inside the key modify or create String Value (Name = Icon) with value of icon's path
soft reset and You've got brand new icons

Hey guys, Ive ran into a little problem.
I was messing around with Memaid, and I accidently deleted the 'Calendar' registry entry for the today screen, which also removed the entry from the Settings>Today>Items menu.
I assume the actual entry is in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items
Would someone be kind enough to look up the entry for me so I could add it back to my registry.
Thanks!
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Enabled = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Flags = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Options = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Order = 33
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Selectability = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\Type = 1
"Order" will change as you move it around.
Thanks!
I only have experience with PHM, TRE and Total Commander's registry editing, unfortunately. However, they all work more or less the same.
Somewhere in Resco's File Explorer should be a registry editor. See that you get that running first Then navigate to...
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\
You should have a menu option somewhere where you can choose 'Create' or 'New', followed by 'Key'. Pick that one and you'll probably be asked to give it a name. For the name, choose "Calendar" (with quotes here, though I don't think you need it with the quotes).
That should get you the...
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Calendar"\
key.
Now in the same menu where you could create a Key, you can probably choose to create a "DWORD" or "decimal" value. Pick that one for each of the items I had listed, and give it the appropriate name. E.g. "Enabled". It will likely also ask you for the value you want to give it - enter the numbers above (make sure that if you get an option to either edit in decimal, hexadecimal or binary, that you're using decimal. Doesn't matter for most of these, but for any future registry edits it'd be good to keep in mind to pick the correct one).
That's all there is to it
Alternatively, I believe that Resco can 'import' .reg files, and somebody could toss this in a .reg file for you to import - I don't know what type of .reg file Resco expects, or I'd attach one myself
It's good to know how to work those registry editing things anyway.
Equivalent entries for Mail?
I just installed and removed GoodLink (a corporate email client) on my Treo 700w. It modifies the Today screen and replaces Mail with it's own entry.
However after removing GoodLink I found that my old mail entry on the today screen was not restored. I used the phm registry editor to add this:
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\Enabled = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\Flags = 0
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"\Mail"\Options = 0
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\Order = 9
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\Selectability = 1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Mail"\Type = 2
which makes Mail appear in the list of available Today plugins. However if I enable it in the today options nothing appears on the Today screen.
Can someone supply the corect entries or tell me what I might be missing? Thanks.

Here is a link to a soft key applet:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=226198#226198
It adds a setting in your Control Panel that allows you to change the soft keys to any program you want.

Also check the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other) as there is information on changing the today softkeys:
Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys
To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Contacts.lnk" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)
To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Contacts" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created
Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx.
I technically know how to add icons to the htchomeplug i just don't know how to change the icon
hklm\software\htc\htchomplug\*add new key*
my problem is the iconindex number, which seems to control the icon. when i change it to a different number the icon disappears but if you click over the area where the icon was the program will still launch.
You can use RViewer (google it, don't remember where I found it), or just go with 0.
This is mentioned in the "original post" on the HTChomeplug modifications.
thanks for the help
HTC HOMEPLUG
First is access using the registry editor to this entry:
/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/HTCHomeplug
There is the configuration of the plugin. There we will find two entries pointing to the first two icons (Battery and Rotation) that seems to be configured in a different way that the rest of the icons. Those are the two DWORD entries:
PowerIconSlot with value of 0 (this means the first position in the plugin)
RotateIconSlot with value of 1 (this means the second position)
The rest of the positions in the HTCHomeplug appears like KEY entries with names from 2 to 5 meaning positions 3 to 6 in the plugin bar.
Inside each key (2 to 5) we find 3 values (or entries):
1- iconindex DWORD type of Decimal which contains 103 in the case of entry KEY 2
** I used a program called RViewer (for PPC) develop by Vicott Wong to find the iconindex**
2- LaunchApPath STRING contains the path to the executable file associated to the icon
3- ResPath STRING contais the path to the resource file which contais the icon image poited by iconindex entry. This path points to a DLL or EXE file containing the icon image.
So... since we want to add a icon/application we need to create the entry KEY 6 and we must create both STRING entries and DWORD one inside the KEY 6.
To add Tomtom Navigator in the HTCHomeplug (as an example) I added:
iconindex = 101
LaunchApPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe
ResPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe
So I'm using the icon storaged in the Tomtom Navigator executable file itself and my Tomtom is in the path I show in the entry. Off course this could not match your installation.
Im trying to find a good phone icon!
I havent found ANY simple phone icon in any resource yet.
Does anybody have a filename/index for a phone icon? Or even an exe/dll with a good phone icon I can use?

This is the solution:
First download and install a Registry Editor, then You can do it in two simple step:
1st step:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
Change "String 1" value from "\Program Files\PocketCM\PocketCM.exe" to ":MSPOUTLOOK contacts".
Make sure that you DO NOT ADD the "" on the new entry: (only :MSPOUTLOOK contacts)
--------------------------
2nd step: Remove the application from the softkey
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys
in "keys" DELETE entire key called "113"
which have Strings:
"Default" set to "Contacts" and
"Open" set to \Program Files\PocketCM\PocketCM.exe
Now you can press "contacts" softkey and phone open default "contacts" view!
enjoy the difference..
star, thanks

Help can someone tell me the proper registry setting?
Hi I was trying to put the icaller registry setting back to normal I was supposed to manually edit the registry: inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS, set
parameter "1" to "\Windows\poutlook.exe Contacts".
But I screwed up and set parameter "0". Can someone that has the default tell me what's supposed to be there? My previous registry backup apparently didn't do a full backup of the registry so I can't read it. Thanks.
Sorry, I meant iContact above, not iCaller.
need some help!!
can u ppl use PHM registry
help me to see
Under HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start
what is the name named as for file explore and Activesync
I accident click it and not able to undo back :/
I have no "name" entry - I have Icon and Rank for them. Are these what you're after?
no i sure there is a name
named as
file explore or
Activesync
just wonder did i spell it correct.
I have keys for:
ActiveSync.lnk
with values for:
Default: Value not set
Icon: \Windows\Start_Icon_Async.png
Rank: 900000768
File Explorer.lnk
with values for:
Default: Value not set
Icon: \Windows\Start_Icon_FileExp.png
Rank: 90000078 (Dec)
I uploaded the .reg for Activesync
Download, rename .txt to .reg copy to your device and import
Cool thanks.
to check is the file explorer
rank: 899998638 ??
Actually it can be anything! The rank value is what decides where the icon will appear on the start menu in relation to all the others. The higher the value the higher up the screen.
If you set it to 1 it will be at the bottom of the screen, if you set it to fffffffff it will be at the top! So it doesn't have to be the same on all devices.
