Greetings all
1st off, just wanted to say thanks to everyone here. This is a tremendous resource for all things PPC.
Is there a way to disable the softkeyboard from automatically opening up but leaving the icon there so I can activate it manually?
I did a few searches here regarding this and didn't see anything pertinent so I'll apologize in advance if I missed it.
Bump......
anyone?
I think it is possible to install a fake soft keyboard that does nothing. I have not used one but seen one on the net. Maybe proposed by Phm.
I have found it. Check the last item on this page:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/PowerToys/
Not a bad band-aid fix but it requires a few more screen taps to pick the correct keyboard when I do need it - but thanks for the reply
I'll keep looking...
Hey all, i really want this as everyone seems to rate it but when you download the CAB file it downloads two link files and an XML which takes you to opera - doesn't seem to want to download like a normal CAB file...still a bit new at all of this but if anyone can tell me how I actually get it installed and working I would be very grateful!
Thanks.
Try this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3041910&postcount=37
Put the cab file on the device, find it on the device using explorer & launch it. It will install.
argh misicid
finally downloaded it didnt work and now cant uninstall searched here did what they said with the reinstall and now i have three dead nusicid icons !! any help please?
Getting rid of MusicID
Hey all, posted on this before but it seems to have gotten lost. I downloaded MusicID using the links people posted, never got it to work so tried to uninstall and it left an icon in my programmes, did what people said and tried to uninstall by reinstalling and now i have THREE musicid icons left none of which work - can someone tell me how to get rid of this horrid programme (which incidentally sadly doesnt compare with Shazam at all :-( )

This is the third new thread you have started on this topic. Please read the sticky at the top of the Forum and stop polluting - this is not a Helpdesk and you are not entitled to an answer.
I suspect diligent use of the search tool would give you what you need - I'm sure I remember seeing a solution
Thank you for your post.
There is no solution posted here as regards to uninstall (and my initial direction was as to "install"), or rather there is one that was posted to another member and does not work, indeed it is a problem many have referenced hence the inquiry (not a demand for a response).
There are many questions posed here with people asking for assistance and many people who are good enough to provide answers recognising that is part of the spirit of this forum - if you do not wish to answer the thread then there is no obligation to do so but I do not feel that people should have any hesitation in posting on any matter they may choose.
If by what your saying you mean there's an broken shortcut to the application under the programs menu that was left behind after you uninstalled the application, you can delete those broken links by going into Windows/Start menu/Programs. Here you should see all the .lnk files associated with every program you have on your phone (including the broken links for musicId). Just delete these and they should be gone. Of course needless to say.....I'm sure you've already uninstalled the application from under start-->settings-->system-->remove programs.
in /windows/Start menu/Programs folder remove the icons.
and i agree with iain.fraser, a simple bump to the original thread should have sufficed
Thank you for the help.
The icons are there when you go windows/start/programs (not in the scroll down start menu or the slide along menu but actually on the programmes screen which shows all programmes i.e just like the icons for all the other applications, activesync, camera etc...) and cant seem to be deleted from there and there is no option to delete icons ( this is following uninstalling the programme by "removing programmes").
Its always good to have a program like SK Tools and officialy uninstall the programs from there to make sure they are completely gone!
Hmmmm that's weird. What options do you get if you tap and hold using your stylus on the musicID icons? Coz well, deleting icons is a pretty straight forward process.

Your slightly hurt tone might have been avoided by your reading the rules of the Forum, which apply to you just as they do to everyone else here.
It is not your request that poses an issue, rather the three requests in fairly quick succession, which edges towards demanding.
Plugging the search terms 'MusicID' and 'uninstall' into the Forum Search facility at the top of the Forum returned two hits, the second of which is a thread around the coolest applications installed. Post 17 of that thread purports to offer a solution to uninstalling. If you have already tried that, you could widen out to other Forums, to the Internet as a whole, or even contact the developers of MusicID before bumping one of your original threads. Any of these would be fine - starting another new thread isn't.
Please do read the sticky - it might prove useful in future
Thanks i know its strange and frustrating - basically it created a new file called "ATT music", you click on that file in the programmes page (not the touch flo programme page where you can select and remove whatever you want but the windows programme page which shows you everything) and it opens a new icon saying "3 music id" i try to delete that by holding the stylus on it and it just says the file cannot be opened and to try reinstalling or restoring it. There are three such ATT files now on my system that i can't delete.
Hmmm...try deleting the files through activesync. Or as a last resort.....use SK Tools. It's pretty effective. You can download a trial version.
Good Luck.
Great thanks - i'll give it a go. help much appreciated!!!

Hi, Sorry to hear it did not work for you. Did you have .net 3.5 installed?
This is the link I used to find the right cab: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3041910&postcount=37
I did read on another forum that the trick to uninstalling it was to install again on top and reply "yes" to the remove earlier version option and then cancel the install after that.
It works very well on my HD - I can sit in the chair across the room from the radio and it will pick up the music fine and after about 30 seconds it has done the sampling, analyzing and provided the track details.
It's not very good on classical music though !!
Thanks cheesy dave. I tried what the uninstall by reinstall and it just gave me another dead icon (now 3 as i tried it twice).
It's a shame as it looks like fun if you can get it to work. I think i have the old net compact (is there a way to check) maybe the first thing i should do is upgrade it.

Hi, you should know if you have .Net 3.5 as it needs to be installed separately. By default the HD comes with the much earlier .Net framework. So if you have to ask then probably you have only the standard. I would recommend installing the new version - there are links in this forum for it. Also, try the wiki pages:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software
Many applications need the new version to work. I personally have no idea if musicid needs it. It does work fine on my HD and I do have .net 3.5 installed and set as the default.
Here is a useful link that has the registry key you can check to see what .net you have:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460006
I find the musicid fun, I doubt I will use it every day but now and then it will be good to have it available.
Regards, D
Here is the Microsoft link for .Net 3.5:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...3c6b-42f1-9fd9-0041345b3385&displaylang=en&tm
(if the link is no good then go to microsoft and search for "NETCFSetupv35")

what happened when you tried SKtools?
Hey all,
Recently purchased a Touch Diamond and have been heavily modifying the software/rom over the past few days. I'd first like to thank everyone who has contributed! There is such much information out there that it's sometimes hard to disseminate it all for new users.
In any case I have done a lot of extensive searching for this question and I've found a possible solution but only leads to more questions for me. Here's my question, how can I customize the application which is launched when I tap the clock on the TF3D home screen?
Through searching I've found I might have been able to edit manila.xml (26948339_manila) but couldn't find anything specific to application launching in that file. I also found reference to using something called "SSMaP" but was unable to find any further information regarding this application via the forums of google.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
-Mike

HI all,
I have got an question. I have been trying to get M2d working properly on my Omnia. I seem to be able to run it but with some issues. Here is the post I had posted earlier on:
"First of all I really like the things we can do with M2d, but I am having some problems with my Omnia. It seems like not all the tabs are stretched out enough to fit the whole screen. For example if i open the Weather tab. At the bottom (above the icons) I can see the weather for the coming days. When i would go to the Messaging tab then, i will still see that weather for the coming days. It could be usefull, but it SHOULDNT be there. At the other tabs it is just very ugly. Could anyone help me sort this out?
I really like this software, but with this thing going on, I rather use SPB Mobile Plus."
Ive installed the 22 beta2 version of M2d. I hope anyone could help me out with this.
Thanks in advance

Does anyone know how I can link a programme, like HTC Peep as a quick link when it ISN'T selected as one of the programmes on the bottom scroll bar.
hey... i made a topic about this a couple hours ago...
i usually don't say "search" simply because i don't care enough.. but in this case... i wont.. simply because there is no answer... you just can't... for now i guess...
it's a locked program basically.. it unlocks and becomes visible once the tab is activated.. which is really dumb.. but i'm sure someone with some knowledge in the registry can solve this issue for us.. but i don't think anyone is up to the task....
