[Q] How to hide the GSM line icon - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Is it possible to hide the gsm line icon "1" from the titlebar in WM 6.5 ?

Good question! I hate the "1" in my task bar!

Seems it can't be done...

in registry edit this key, works instantly.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"ALSService"=dword:00000000
one flaw: gets re-enabled with every phone restart...

a mortscript can solve that
paste a .lnk to this script into /windows/startup
regwritedword("HKLM", "\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\ALSService", "0")
BTW, what other icons can you dissable like this on the topbar?

hehe, been at this point 2 years ago... ^^
mortscript won't work this way. the reg-key get's reset with first pin-unlock after reboot, not during boot-process itself (startup-dir). so, unless you can trigger the script with pin-unlock, it would get set to 0 during boot, after pin it get's set to 1 again.
i tried with a startup-link to a reg-file back then, works the same way as mortscript (reg-files associated to sktools, resco would work too). settled with opening that link manually once after unlock.
(enabling flight-mode and then re-enabling phone doesn't bring the line-icon back, it's really just the very first pin-unlock after reboot)
dunno about disabling any other icons in taskbar, but them i want anyway.

In my ROM I remove the icon and edit the registry.

i thought that mortscript had a problems with windows/starup/ - in that case it also has a problem with /windows/start menu/ too.. (i never actually wanted to say anything incase i was wrong, but i noticed this a few weeks ago when using a script to delete .lnks.. )

BT Icon?

I search the link who launch the icon of BT on the botton right. I lost the icon and I don't want make an hard reset whith reinstall for retreive it.
Thank's
hope this help
try this:
There is a workaround for this problem.
It's not pretty, it requires hacking the registry, but it works.
I found it at http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthr...7403#post397403, but had to make a slight adjustment.
I assume that you know
- How to install form a CAB file
- How to create and edit a shortcut on your Pocket PC
- How to edit the registry on your Pocket PC
Ready? Here we go:
1) Download NoPluginsToday (you'll most likely want the ARM version) from http://www.ictinus.com/NoPluginsToday/
2) Install the CAB somewhere. Make sure you know the exact location of NoPluginsToday.exe (e.g. \Storage\NoPluginsToday\NoPluginsToday.exe)
3) Create a shortcut to NoPluginsToday.exe in \Windows\Startup. Name this shortcut ZzzNoPluginsToday, so that it is last in the list of shortcuts to be launched.
4) Start a registry editor, and go to HKLM\init. Look for keys named LaunchXX. You'll want to create a new String key named LaunchYY, where YY is a bigger number than any of the XX you found. I created Launch99. The value for LaunchYY is the exact location of NoPluginsToday.exe (e.g. \Storage\NoPluginsToday\NoPluginsToday.exe) you looked up earlier.
Now you're set! Do a soft reset, and see your Bluetooth icon again! You'll notice your startup time may be a little longer.
How does it work?
The BT icon disappears because of a timeout issue when loading plugins.
We solve this by using NoPluginsToday, which switches all Today plugins off, remembers the settings, and reactivates them the next time it is executed.
By calling NoPluginsToday twice, once via the registry (early) and then again via \Windows\Startup (late), we "postpone" the loading of Today plugins until after the BT icon has been activated. That's your longer startup time for you.
Hope this helps!

How to get rid of: stk_uippc.exe (Fun & Info)

When I open Programs I always have an shortcut named: "Fun & Info".
I know it's a shortcut to the file: stk_uippc.exe
Is there any way to get rid of this icon? I don't mind that the file keeps existing in the Windows directory.
I tried delete the shortcut but it keeps coming back after a soft reset.
Think I've found it myself, but I wanted to share it with my fellow forum members
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\STK_Service]
"Keep"=dword:00000001
Changed to:
"Keep"=dword:00000000
That's all!
Thanks for the info, but after changing it in the registry my phone starts up very slow than before. It takes about 2,5 times longer, about 4 minutes. (After I shut it down and switch it on again, or when using a soft reset)
If I change it back again in the registry to "1" (Decimal) my phone starts up at normal speed..... (about 1,5 minutes)
Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?
On WM6 I've noticed that it doesn't change no matter what value I set in the regsitry.
I've tested it and it works perfect for me:
Just delete the complete "STK_Service" key. After this I soft reset my phone. Make sure you have removed the STK Shortcut of course
If you want to restore the key I suggest you export the key before deleting it!
Thanks for the fast reply. Just tried and it works.
Btw, do you know how to get Fring working with Orange world / proxy?
I can't get past the initial registration due to the message: internet connection is not available.
I can use IE and browse the internet with no problems.
Sorry if it's not the right topic to post the question.
Indeed a bit off topic.. ..try searching the forum
TIP:
www.google.com
SEARCH TERM site:http://forum.xda-developers.com
Works much better than the build in search.

What's the Registry key? Write a quick script to get rid of it, and place it in your startup directory. I can do that for you if you'd like...

I'm not sure it would solve the problem, because if I change the state of the registry key, I have to soft reset the Touch to apply changes and during the boot process maybe the regsitry is changed.
For example, I installed PMC Today Shrink which is supposed to get rid of this tray and as you can see on the screenshot, I have both tray (with intellisync icon) and today tray (with Action and Contact).
Have tried an application called "startup manager" I've seen it here, but I can't seem to find it.
You should give it a go.

Is it possible to deactivate the sim contacts??

Hi,
is there any option or tool to deactivate the sim contacts?
I know there is a registry key for this, i changed it but if i write a sms and add the recipient all contacts are showing (sim and phone).
I hope somebody can help me - i don't want to delete all contacts on my sim card.
With a registry editor after HKCU \ Control Panel \ Phone - a new DWORD create variable with the name "ShowSim" and to "0" set

it wont stay after a reset. (soft)
i got so tired of the sim contacts that i deleted all the sim contacts. Just back up your HD with a good backup program. I do that every day. YOU need that especially if you mess with the registry and stuff. You can always get them back by saving all of them back to SIM. ITS EASY!!!!!!!! AT LEAST, no sim contacts are showing now...its great.
Why don't you use the search button?
There is a good thread and a problem solving cab still around.
You can also use the Advanced Configuration Tools. Under Phone, there is an option to show SIM card contact. Set it to no and soft reset.
You're not the only one who says that after soft reset it comes back. Try to switch off the device, wait for 20 seconds before soft reseting to ensure that the registry changes stick.

Tired it.
Didn't work for me.
After 3 minutes (just to be sure that 20 secs have passed) when powering it on, Advanced Config still has them on yes.
sims back

do you have this working on your HD?? just curious...it doesnt work on anyone elses.
I have exactly the same problem : none of the solutions (registry edit, Advanced Configuration Tools or th CAB "SIM fix" file) works : SIM contacts are back after every soft-reset/power off.
just put the file under No. 9 (yJay.HideSim) in your autostart folder
http://translate.google.com/transla...tricks-tweaks.html&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&sl=de&tl=en
its not working! looks like that the exe wont started from the autostart folder. When i start it manually I get rid of the sim contacts...
Very quick question, but if I want to solve this by deleting contacts from the sim, where in autosynch can I save contacts to my p.c.? I can't see it, do I have to use outlook to achieve this?
I end up with no contacts on my sim. It's risky couse I got no backup. I simply do know how to do it. Any sugestions, please ....
Anyone foud a good solution, so we can keep contacts on sim as well as in device memory yet ?

Use PIM Backup. It's the best and free.
I found a (workaround) solution that may help you deactivate SIM contacts from showing in your list without the need of deleting them.
First of all, I found this trick when tried to use Gyrator2 application, which seems to fail during reset/start of the device. It is called DelayedExec and it is using for a delayed start of any application you want.
For example, you can set "yJay.HideSim.exe" to start with a delay of 90 seconds after starting up your device. Just a put a shortcut in your Windows\StartUp folder with the following syntax:
"\Windows\delayedExec.exe" 90 "\Windows\yJayHideSim.exe"
Of course you need to copy those 2 exes in Windows folder (or anywhere else) and edit the paths if needed. Also you can use another program like MortScript to do this task.
90 seconds should be enough time to write your SIM PIN (if you have one) so that the sim contacts will be loaded and the delayed application will hide them.
Thanks. This is not necessary anymore. You can use the updated version:
http://translate.google.com/transla...-2.html#post268722&sl=de&tl=en&hl=de&ie=UTF-8
Just copy yJay.HiseSIM to your device, make a shortcut to \Windows\AutoStart / StartUp
Ok i finally got it !!!!!!
I've tried all simfix but it never worked for me.
It seems that the contact fix works only if have installed just few apps. But if you've got a lot of app launching at the start of the HD it wil not work.
So take the kaisersimfix one for exemple. Install it. Remove the KaiserContactsSimFix.Lnk from the \windows\startup (\windows\demarrer for froggies ) cos it launch itself too fast and the registry key modified by the kaiser fix will return to 1 (showsim) by i don't which app .
Take PHM regedit and go to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Bootlauncher\Apps
Create a new Key with the name you want (for exemple SimFix) with the value name "module" and value name with the exe and his FULL path of the fix you have chosen (for exemple kaiser one: \Program Files\KaiserSimFix\KaiserContactsSimFix.exe).
Add another value name "sleep" with "the value data" 8000 (in decimal or 1f40 in Hex).
And TADA that done Folks !!!!!!
ING HideSIM V 2.1.cab - HTC HD 100% OK

Please help me with automatic rotation : )

I've got a problem : when my phone is ringing, the automatic rotation works. So, for example, when I draw the phone out of my pocket to pick-up, it often rotates horizontally and I incidentally press the "hang up" button. I have no idea witch program exactly is causing this, but please tell me how to disable the automatic rotation oh phone ring. I have Gyrator and BSBTweaks installed and I've searched, but I haven't managed to do it.
:? Anyone?
Since you are using Gyrator, you must have set it to rotate all apps. If you don't want your Dialer to rotate automatically, then you must make sure that cprog is included in the exception list.
Rather than use Gyrator, I would suggest you update your registry with the G-Config Whitelist. Just make sure that cprog is not in that list.
You can find the G-Config entries in the link below.
http://www.4shared.com/dir/24155450/7800c381/Rhodium.html
There're s no such thing as an 'exeptions list' in Gyrator, but I don't use it all the time. I suppose the problem is in BSBtweaks - I tried adding "phone" to the rotating apps there and then removing the check-mark, but it didn't work. Then I tried downloading the file you suggested, but even after adding it to the registry the phone would still rotate when someone's calling. I'm starting to feel in a dead end here :/
Check the program (phone / cprog) in BSB Tweaks and then hit the Options softkey below and click on Remove Selected Apps.
Soft Reset and you should be fine. Make sure you that Gyrator does not startup again.
Damn. I did exactly as you told, but it didn't work out. The thing is, even after I remove a program from the "rotation" list in BSBTweaks, it is back there again after soft reset. So I've decided to uninstall the program, then to apply the registry file you mentioned earlier again and then to reset the phone. But even then, when I rotate the phone during a call, the display rotates ;/ I'm starting to wonder if there's something else forcing it to do so, but I'm not in the mood for hard reset ;/
The REG file I linked you to contains most of the programs that people could install that would need rotation INCLUDING the phone.
BSB Tweaks was supposed to help you to remove the phone entry without going into the registry.
Ok, nevermind that.
Uee any registry editor and go to
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList]
Delete "Phone/Lock/Compose/Pictures"="Dialog"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName]
Delete "Phone/Lock/Compose/Pictures"="\\Windows\\cprog.exe"
That should fix it. Make sure that you don't have Gyrator / ChangeScreen / any other rotation program installed.
