how to remove comm manager & battery status icons at bot

So how do I remove those little icons down there? Looks like they are not part of "Today" screen (which can ofcourse be customized), I can't remove them there.
There must be some kind of registry tweak to remove that.
Battery status is completely unusable to me becouse track battery status other way on the Today screen.
nevermind i found out how to do it.
just remove init_tray from windows\startup and thats it!
Well i did just that and it works. but i noticed one not so good side effect. When i press down on the d-pad. Select the last thing on my today screen and press down again. The selection color (box, whateveryou want to call it) disapears and does not come back when i press up. I have to use the touch screen to get the selection color back.
Removing the status bar
When I checked the windows/startup folder there was no tray_init listed on my XDA Orbit.
However, I renamed the windows\TrayAp.exe by putting my initials in front as follows -
windows\ahTrayAp.exe
I then did a soft reset and the tray and icons no longer appear.
I have reset a few times and it the stus bar still doesn't appear

How to change the background lock screen?

I was wondering how to change the background screen when my TP2 is lock. I tried downloading different themes and background and it still doesn't change. I have a tmobile with stock rom and official 6.5 upgrade. Can anyone help.
thanks.
The background of your lock screen is the background of your Today screen. That is to say, the background set for Windows Mobile 6 and not the Touch Flo 3D background.
If you want to change your lock screen background, go to the Settings tab in TF3D, press the left soft key ("All Settings"), select the "Today" icon, and at the bottom of the first tab there will be a checkbox and a browse button to select your background picture.
S2U2
You also may want to consider S2U2. It offers much more control over locking phone and pictures Give it a search and check it out.

Thanks alot guys. I actually went to that window/tabs but wasn't sure what it would(I'm a newbie). Thanks again
I m having a really annoying problem. When I first got my phone (tilt2) I was trying out different lock screen backgrounds and somewhere along the way the incall lock screen buttons changed to these really horrible like round custom things. I didnt install anything so I dont have a CLUE how to get them back to the default buttons that I liked. Anyone have an idea?

Default Slider Lock Vanished

I have posted this before a couple of days back on another thread so sorry.
Just wanted to know if there is a reg key that i can modify to get HD2 slider lock back.
A little background to the problem, i installed Cookies Home tab and now my slider lock is gone(the one that comes default with HD2). It may not be related to CHT as the folks on the other thread suggest. when i try the soft key lock button on right hand side bottom it used to lock my phone and i had to unlock it using the slide lock. Now it still gets locked but the home screen still remains and an unlock shows up at the bottom left hand side, which on tapping presents me with an ugly out of the place unlock screen and on tapping it again i am able to unlock it.
I am tempted to do a hard reset coz i like the default slider lock, however i want to give in to tweaks and try things before jumping for the extreme. Any suggestions/ bright ideas appreciated.
Thanks
P.S. I tried S2U2 but i kinda miss the default one and uninstalled it.
Sorry guys i figured out what was wrong and i have the default slider lock back!
the reason it was disabled was, my setting> lock > display was set to windows classic.
I changed it to windows default and the lock is back.
Thanks.

Cookies Home Tab? Wont let me customise.

Hello, I have a HTC HD2 on Vodafone and have just downloaded and successfully installed the latest versions of cookies home tab and its editor.
When you see the countles videos people have uploaded online of people with their htcs, with the awesome little customised, cookies home tab screen, everything works perfectly.
My home screen by default is black and pretty blank, except it has a joint weather and time widget at the top of the screen. Pressing menu, edit home layout, i assumed would be the thing to do. When i do this, a screen just like i want appears, with the clasic big clock..and the quicklinks..and i can move/add/change everything as i want. I press done and this appears to be my new home screen.
However, whenever i attempt to scroll or move anything up and down on the screen, without reacting, it will just snap back to the original black screen i spoke about with the smaller widget at the top.
This means i cannot customise anything, for example the handy expansion of quicklinks..etc, as when i do, everything will just snap back to its default.
Like i said there are hundreds of videos online about this program but none running you from installation to customisation, so i dont know what to do!
Any help would be greatly appreciated to get me started with this program as its getting on my nerves...
Thanks a lot!

[Q] Widgetlocker and soft keys

Anybody using widgetlocker for a lock screen replacement, I know we know have lockscreen widgets (tho it seems only about 4 to choose from) but what I love being able to set is shortcuts for gmail, phone and messaging right there and have support for unread messages/missed calls with telsa unread.
Anyway the problem I have is that widgetlock doesn't seem to disable the soft keys (like the stock lockscreen does) so basically I can just bypass unlocking. Anybody have a work around, I know this isn't the first device with softkeys so this must have been a problem that as come up before.
NVM, root helper and 'hide navigation keys' got rid of the soft keys, only problem now is it is just so laggy/unresponsive to touch, takes several attempts to unlock. Hopefully this is just a bug with 4.2 devices and they will fix it soon.
I got a problem w/widgetlocker and the multitask softkey. When I go to the lockscreen, it takes a second for the multitask softkey to appear while the back and home keys are lighted automatically. It just happened today..does anyone w/widgetlocker experience that problem? I wonder if there's a way to fix it and it's starting to bother me.
