[Q] Internet Explorer History - HD Mini General

Hi,
This may not be a HD Mini specific question but was on the forum to see if anyone had asked!
I want to turn off IE history completely. On the touch diamond I could set the days to 0 so I could browse away and no history created. There isn’t the option for this on the new (and improved?) version of IE.
I have set the DaysToKeep option in the reg to 0 too but still the history appears.
Any help would be good

Thought some one must have the answer! oh well.

dialpad skin, caller id, mms

Yes I did use search. A lot. Got quite late.
The only dialpad skin that's actually working for the Magician... is the xpad,
or is there another one around?
The thing is that I actually found some after lots of searching, just that
they only replace a part of the dialpad and the upper left section is always
messed up, or just that part is fine (when installing wm 5 dialpad skins).
What about that Caller ID program? I didn't see it mentioned too often around here. Does anybody use it? Is there a better program (or can you grab the one of the Tytn e.g.?)
How can I get rid of it? (I wouldn't want to Hardreset...)
One last thing - what cab file sets up the connection settings for O2 Germany MMS?
The folder's there, I can go online sufing via IE, but sending/receifing of MMS isn't possible (yeah, it's already been activated) - any advice?
Thanks.

Too many questions...

...so i put them all in one thread. .
Hello everyone.
Just got a TyTn. Quite a change from my old K800, but im sure i'll adjust.
Ive been reading around here for a few weeks now in antisipation of my TyTn arriving. So know a few things already, like the highly rated 'batti' battery app.
I have a few questions about it though that i cant find definate answers on:
- Is it possible to have custom ringtones for each contact?
- How do i close programs? As at the moment they just seem to minimise, and the only way i can find to actually close them is through the memory app in settings.
- How do i install the today screen app called 'Launcher' its not a cab file like the rest of the programs ive installed.
- Is there a today screen plugin i can use to lock the phone when i press it?
- Some of my contacts are listed as 'elliot, fred' rarther than 'fred elliot'. How do i fix that?
- Is it possible to have full screen contact images? Ive got contact images setup for a few of my contacts, but they only ever show up as a tiny icon when opening a txt (havnt tryed incoming calls yet), is there a way to make it so that when i get a txt i get the picture instead of/extra to the standard popup?
- Emoticons. How/can i put them in txt messages? (actually view them, not the pure text equilivent.).
Thanks in advance all.
Any help would be much appricated. .

Ok I tried to help, but geez dude. I think this forum may be a little advanced for you. There are plenty of other websites and forums that can help you with these questions. Before you post any more questions:
1. Read The Windows Mobile Manual
2. Learn how to use the search function
3. Spend a little more time reading
4. Read a little more.
5. Come back and post questions when you ACTUALLY have a phone. THis way you can try to figure things out on the phone before you start asking questions.
Good Luck!

lg ks20 tuning

dear all,
first i would like to thank everybody in this forum for their great work! fantastic!
for me who owns his first wm phone it's really interesting but also dificult to filter all relevant information for my lg ks20. this is why i started this thread.
by now i have spb ms 2.1.1 installed running with the pointui skin. also got resco board and opera 9 and that should do it for me (for the start).
now comes the question(s):
- i found this great greatbal skin in all his modifications. also the discussion concerning the 9th button. the manual for how to install it doesn't work for me. any hint?
- due to the fact, that the ks20 has no g-sensor, is there any prog that provides me with the adjustment to start a program vert or horizontal? maybe in combination with the resco board (sms = open resco = switch screen. close = switch back) or opera?
- is there a manual existing for how to change buttons of the bottom row or/and in the further menues?
- when leaving a prog the phone starts back from the wm home screen, not from the ms home... and exactly this is what i wanted to avoid the most: the wm style!
and just to make that clear: i used the "search"! but for a newb like me it's impossible to find out the relevant informations in all these hundred-pages-threads...
thank you very much for your patience,
koke
that is really strange...
here and in other forums it seems that i am the only one with an lg ks20.
Hi,
Just for you to know that you're not the only one
1- No idea
2- No idea
3- Have a look here
4- I haven't used spb ms for a while but I don't remember having this behaviour.
hi spocky,
thx anyway.
i think about switching to a touch diamond due to the fact that there are no solutions for the mentioned problems. which is really bad because i like the ks20's reduced shapestyle more than htc...
cheers,
koke
i'm looking rom wm6.1 for LGKS20,anyone can share it,TQ!
Hallo.
Just some things about this thread: You seem to have many questions but just about mobile shell . The lg is a cheap qvga windows mobile ppc nothing more. So when you searched a lot you maybe found some mobile shell threads ? And now the Question: why anbother thread ?
to say it clearly: you questions have nothing to do with LG but onyl with Mobile shell or windows mobile! So this is really sensless.
it looks like a: - my personal, - i am new, -dont whant to read much, - come on help me all -thread, and not a developers thread.
so please post this questions to where they belong, i cant find anything special in your question about LG specific things. I think then you will get some answers. Because this thread read only lg users (not many ) and not mobile shell users. I think you now understand what i mean and why you dont get a answer.
Also you other question have nothing to do with LG. The bottom buttons ale called "softkeys" and evey windows moblie has this. so you should search with "change softkeys", but first learn a little bit how something is called on windows mobile, because this helps a lot when searching. Because this question has been answered a hundred times. i use SKTools, i can be done by registry change or ....
on windows moblie the screen orientation is called "Portait" and "Landscape" (helps seraching )
And you have no G-Sensor ?, 99 Percent of the windows phones have no G-sensor. just some brandnew.
Thank you.

Wisbar Advanced can do this...it allows you to set the screen orientation for a specific program or application; then when you exit the application your screen comes back to the original orientation it's very useful ...
What I want to know is if there is an app that will automatically adjust the backlight using info from the front camera. I can't read a thing when I'm in the sunlight but having it full on all the time eats away my battery way too fast.
Idea's?

New owner questions

Hello all,
bought Snap recently and enjoying it a lot, however there are some questions I was unable to find answers for. Could you guys please advise:
Why there's no ClearType (font antialiasing) turned on by default as on my HTC Vox (s710) - how can I turn it on?
REALLY annoying - unread emails and SMS are not displayed in bold! Is there a way to turn this on via registry/smth?
Major for me - I need Russian and Spanish input languages - how can I install them? I've installed some of found .cabs but they are likely for different phones as they mess up special buttons layout;
When I receive SMS, my screen does not lighten unlike on my Vox, is there a way to change it?
I was unable to get my GPS to work. Is there a way to test it not using Google maps to understand 100% if it's just faulty GPS module?
I can't get ActiveSync USB to PC mode to work under Windows 7 - it works only after I change it to DataTransfer mode. Is it a common issue?
I would be really grateful if the group can help with at least some of the questions. Thanks in advance!
OK, I found the Clear Type registry hack but the rest of the issues still remain. Can you advise on the rest of the list, please?
Thank you.
sorry wrong post
Anybody? I can't believe there are no experts using the phone.
Hi,
First of all, I am no expert, but I can indicate you that :
- My unread messages are displayed in bold, so you got to have an option to set.
- In the profile settings, you can set the type of alarm you want for each type of message ; screen light could be one of them
- you have plenty of programs that use a GPS ; look up any WinMo GPS app on this forum, it doesn't have to be designed for the Snap (any QVGA version will do). Try this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522915&page=3
I guess you could you a free app, for instance Bing Maps, to test you GPS receiver.
Sync under 7 : if it does work at the en of the day, what's your problem ?
I use tomtom for GPS, works great.
Hi there, i've found a few programs that are free for GPS. I tinker with them, when I question if mine is working and one is jst a must have program. They are; QuickGPS, WMMiniGPS, HTC GPS Tool, GPS Test, and GPS Nut. Like I said they're all free programs and QuickGPS, is probably on you ROM.
Good Luck

HD2 WishList

These are my requests that I have which would actually "complete" my perfect HD2... if any members here would like to contribute some info as to how I may go about and fulfill them, then I would have much gratitude. Thanks
-Aside from the volume control that MysticGenious posted along with his taskbar, is there any other cab or registry change that will allow me to change my volume in increments of 1 as opposed to 3 bars each time? I am familiar with the paid app, but I do not want to go that route.. If mysticGenious created something that works when you use his taskbar, then I'm sure someone else has created something.
-Take the application "FootPrints" for example... Unless I have that activated on my tab screens, I am unable to create a shortcut so that I can save it on as a quicklink. This is the same with the HTC Calender App and any other tab application. If its not active in the Tab menu then the shortcuts doesn't exist. Is there a workaround? I would like to use Foot Prints, but I only want it as a quicklink, NOT as a Tab folder. I have already tried activating the tab and creating the shortcut to the quicklinks, but as soon as i removed it from the Tab Menus, it disappeared. There has got to be a way for this to happen. Cause I mean the program is there, but for some reason it only works if its active in Tabs.
-Transformers... I have tried reinstalling the Transformers cab but that didn't work. I just want to be able to click the Transformers shortcut and be able to select either 1 or 2 and then the movie instantly pops up. I have the movies saved on my sd card now, but because i moved them out of the SD card and onto my computer at one point in time, the link that connected them is no longer there. Basically I have all the components, I just need some guidance on how to make the shortcut link and work again... I'm assuming that i have to direct the file via registry editor "Total Commander" or something, I am just confused when it comes to that stuff on my HD2
and believe it or not, thats actually the only issues I have left with the phone, I'm sure that someone has a suggestion, or knows an answer... thanks a lot guys
i haven't given up hope on the members here....
anyone know any information about any of the 3 that i have listed??
*Update*
I have solved my transformers issue...
thanks for the help community???................................................................
ehhh......
well either way.. in case someone runs into the same situation heres the original thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6392077#post6392077
cheers...
so any chances someone is gonna be able to point me in right direction for my other requests?? or perhaps even an answer??
cause this is a active hd2 forum, with many users willing to help out each other right???
one can dream.....
wrt links to footprints etc
you should be able to create your own shortcuts to the applications using File Explorer. footprints.exe exists in the Windows directory, you just need to copy it and past as short cut in the windows-start menu-programs directory. These short cuts shouldn't disappear when you disable the tab.

yea you would think so right?? but unfortunately this is the case... and i'm wondering how would we be able to remedy this.. cause yea.. footprinks.lnk does not exist... until it is activated in tabs.. and even if i decide to make a shortcut of the footprints.lnk when it shows up.. the shortcuts becomes inactive one you deactivate the tab...
its WEIRD... i think what it is.. is that HTC put a lock on that application, since its one of their own.. so that it can only work if its activated under sense UI... which sucks..
but yea.. so i've already tried all the "doable" attempts... i'm basically asking someone who is more skilled to tell me whats going on... cause the developers can do amazing things.. this would be a walk in the park...
