Help with wm5 listview state image

I was annoyed that the atom did not have a little program like the "running programs" on the mini, so it got me thinking about replacing it. Instead of accessing the memory manager I made a little app to put on my today launcher (see my sig) so I could get a list of the processes.
The program itself works (even though I think I did it a bit back to front) but there is one problem. In all versions of the os before wm5 my listview works fine. In wm5 the state image list, ie using LVSIL_STATE dose not work. I do not have any programing tools for wm5 and I cant find any info regarding how it handles state images. Any info would be appreciated.
Also is there a way to get an icon onto the recently used programas list in the start menu - without putting the exe/lnk into the start menu folder?
Here is the program if anyone wants to try it
http://odeean.veritel.com.au/ORDprocessManager/processManager.exe

I also found that using
ListView_SetImageList(hwndListView, himlTopLevel, LVSIL_STATE);
screwed up the imagelist used by the file explorer. I would not have expected the explorer to use a state image list to hold the file etc icons, and why should my one have anything to do with it. In the other versions of the os the imagelist one creates belong to the listview and get cleaned up by it when it is destroyed.
the ImageList_AddIcon also fails.

I found the cause.
For years I have been putting 0 in the flags parameter of ImageList_Create.
It always worked because I think it defaults to ILC_COLOR4. The atom has an 18bit colour depth so I guess it needs to be more specific. I tried ILC_COLOR and it worked fine with no more explorer problems. This leaves the question about why the explorer was effected, a bit worrying.
This tiny app takes 2 seconds to do its thing on the XDA 1 and 4 seconds on the atom. Sad, very sad.
...the new version is on the link above now. I noticed that on wm5 cprog comes up as safe to stop (it shouldn't) so don't press stop all if you want your phone to work.

Possible solution for TF3D Qvga Standby issue, dev needed

Hi there,
cause most of you know the problem with TF3D Qvga and StandBy.
Could anyone here with knowledge of coding write a small app that acts like the standby timer in Windows Mobile?
I thought about something like that:
If no user action is recognize for time x, then deactivate TF3D (HKLM","\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFLO 3D","Enabled","0")
and device goes to standby.
If device wakes up (or pressing power button) TF3D will be enabled again.
I think for someone with knowledge in development it shouldn't be mouch action, but it would be great to have a fully working TF3D and i think driver development still will need some time.
So, if someone is able to do that, please, please, please
I will test everything.

that should only be a few lines of mortscript, no ?

No itried this by myself (it's anywhere here in this forum) and i talked to Mort, too.
But there is no possibility in the actual version to recognize user actions.
The rest you can easyli write in MortScript, but not the user recognation.

Launch apps on startup

Running windows 8 on my Main System and was having trouble gettin sickbeard and couch potato to run on startup.
In windows 7 I accomplished it by putting shortcuts in
C:\Users\Account Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Start Up\
The same folder exists in Windows 8 but placing a shortcut there wasn't working for Sickbeard and buggy for Couchpotato and SABnzb.
However there is an equivalent folder for Metro:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Progams\Start up\
After placing the shortcuts there it is working perfectly.
(Tried task scheduler to launch SB, CP and SAB but that also didn't work)

is this still working? I am having trouble getting sickbeard or couchpotato to launch on startup on the Release Preview
EDIT: Yes it is thanks. I was having problems finding that folder but putting it into chrome's URL bar worked for some reason.

BUMP: Turns out it's not working.. turned on computer this morning and CP + SB didn't start. :S tis a damn shame.

try adding a reg entry here...
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
add the program you want to load to that list and see what happens, im in the middle of something at the mo and cant try it but it should work just fine.
note you only should use one of them
CU Current users, for user specific programs
LM Local machine, for all users

Thanks for the information, this makes them appear in the Startup tab of Task Manager, but doesn't make them start on boot :S I believe it's something to do with the apps themselves rather than Windows 8. Maybe it changes the way it does things or something :S

Help mee

You may have to try and get at this registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
and set the MaxCalError Value to 10, 20 or some value higher than what it is set at, then soft reset the machine.
Not easy when the machine itself won't start. You will have to get at it remotely via activesync etc.
Visual Studio contains a remote registry editor, which will install and invoke the client code on the machine, but there are also a few freeware versions around.

Try to connect with the fantastic (and discontinued) EveryWan RemoteSupport Personal Edition: http://www.mediafire.com/?qur4suif6aodtbn
It installs without uncertified-message to confirm as it is signed and has a lot of useful options. Best I came across in all the years
