Big icons at home screen

Recently I updated to WM 6.1, so I have to reconfigure my device. Now I can't remember where I can turn off the menu with the big icons depicted at the bottom of my post. I find it really annoying to have an extra window pop up, since most of the time I click the right icon and don't need bigger ones.
I've already gone through all of the settings, but can't find the option to turn it off, though I know it's possible to! Any help is appreciated, I'm sure someone knows.

What about "TouchFlo" at Start - Settings - System?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you have large start menu enabled then this is also part of it. I don't know if you can turn it off individually.

It can be disabled by deleting few keys in registry.
1)HKLM/Software/HTC/EnlargeTitleBar (Or something like that)
2)HKLM/Services/Largetitlebat (Or something like that)

Help! Something wrong when I boot up my phone!

Guys,
I like to check with you all whether any solution for the below problem :
Every time I boot up my phone, it will display the messaging menu on the background and I cannot view the HTC Sense main screen till I press any button.
Please see below photo of the problem :

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

}

Mine does exactly the same thing.

mine does the same thing too, it seems to be that messaging tries to open up on top of it, if you see on your screenshot, it says messaging at the top instead of start. Seems to be an issue with windows mobile i think as i had the same thing happen on my touch pro with a custom rom. it happens to me when i use the phone too, for example if i'm watching a video in full screen that messaging thing appears over it and exits full screen playback, doesnt happen all the time but enough to become annoying

Try booting the phone without the memory card inserted. Maybe it's corrupt.

I get this too. Tried searching for a fix but couldn't find one so good to see a thread started here about it.

Touching the screen will also take you to the main screen.

Weird. I get the "Launching HTC Sense" sometimes, but never the Messaging thing instead of Start.

It only happens on mine if the phone has been switched off for a while, for example over night, if I just switch the phone off and back on again it goes straight to the main screen.

How To Make HTC One Nearly Full Gesture Based, no root, no tricks, no costs

Just good ol' Android customization and apps, baby:
EDIT: How do I make pictures smaller? Sorry for the giant pics...
Using Swipe Pad (free from Play Store), you can set it up so that it's activated from a gesture from the bottom of the screen (or anywhere else). I have it there so. To activate, I gesture up from the HTC logo (very BBZ10 like). This can be done from anywhere and any app.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then the "Home" portal (a default option of Swipe Pad) can bring you back to the home screen. Then the two portals around it are to put the device to sleep (via an app that's called Screen Off and Lock, also free) so I don't always have to reach up to the power/wake button.
Then the above level of portals are my most frequented apps. I didn't set anything higher but that may yet come. You can add almost anything you want!
It's not only a handy app switcher of sorts, but also one that allows you to set gesture based commands.
Anyway, links to the apps I used are below.
And there you go, a nearly full gesture base HTC One. The only time I have to really reach up to press the power/wake button is to wake the device.
Just thought I'd share! The only obstacle is when the on-screen menu buttons are present. All the more reason for HTC to update the software to rid us of that obnoxious menu bar.

Now if only you can figure out how to turn it on with swipes without rooting

[APP/Launcher] Apex Launcher Widgets

Good afternoon XDA,
My issue is the following. I love Apex and I love working with it but I have several widgets (including my mails and N7player etc..) and every now and again they resize to way outside the current screen.
Is this a known issue and anyone have any idea how to permanently fix it?
PS: I have found a way to temporarily fix it which is holding tap on the widget so that "remove" / "resize" / "app info" & "share" become visible. When I release the widget takes his pre-defined size again and it's all fine (temporarily that is...)

I admit I don't know the answer but may I suggest you to ask on its thread ?
sent from my Darkside of Nexus 4

Thanks for the reply. I searched all over the Nexus 4 forums and didn't find it so I posted this because it could be some Nexus 4 issue or whatnot.
Noticed that it was in the android where Apex has posted (durr )
I have posted this in their official topic too. See if I get any valuable responses,

It's a very weird workaround apparantly.
1) Change your home screen to 10x10
2) Then place the widgets on there (without resizing). Preferably put em in the top left corner else they won't be counted in the next action.
3) change home screen to 5x4 (or whatever prefered)
4) resize widgets, they now stick.... weird shizzle :/ (well I hope this works, used to be 5times+ per day, if it lasts a day it's "fixed" )

If prefered this topic can be deleted or locked or marked fixed of course.

I think my phone got a virus? Very weird bootloop/stuck bootloader

My ZE553KL (I use it as a home device control, small tablet) keep loading/reloading for 3 hours now. I CANNOT SHUT IT DOWN. everytime I have this vibrate boot, ITS SUPER ANNOYING.
It show the bootloader then reboot, then show the bootloader and so on. Buttons are unresponsive.
Only think I can do is press up and get to screen number 2 for exactly 6 second (my computer then recognize it).
I cannot remove battery (hello soldered battery). or shut it down, I guess at some point It will drain battery but.
I have no idea what is happening, please help?

Ouch
Play with it. Proper button sequence and timing is everything. It's easy to not hit the right button at the exact moment. Allowing the battery to auto shutdown may break the cycle. Don't attempt to solder the battery without a good iron and skillset. You need to be fast about it.
If the OS is pre Pie it's suspectable to rootkits that require a reflash to erraticate.
A hardware failure is also possible.
A bad coded 3rd party apk can also boot loop you. That's worse than a normal boot loop though.
It's definitely corrupted... hopefully someone here who has seen this before and/or knows more about that line of phones advanced troubleshooting can help you.
