How to remove the Icon of SPB GPRS Monitor. - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi friends,
I was very upset since on my today screen, since always there was an Icon covering the Icon of Signal Strength. Which was really annoying? Since sometime inside the buildings you really want to know the strength of Signal….
I tried to uninstall SpB GPRS monitor from Pocket Pc, but twice failed, may be I installed this software in the Extended ROM (Cooked); rather it was giving so much problem and I needed another hard task to reinstall it again.
Now with grace of God I got the Solution.
I changed it through the amendment in registry key as by Resco Registry Editor.
Go on HK Local Machine →→
Software
→Then SpB Software house
→GPRS Monitor
→Showicon
→DWORD Date to Change it to 0 instead 1 and it worked…Thank GODAny other suggestion or negative impact it can give to my software …let's share with me…thank you..

Another way to do this would be to run SPB GPRS Monitor from Programs. Then select Tools/Options/Icon. Where you can change whether the Icon appears or not, and also where on the menu bar it appears.
May be easier than hacking the registry.

moving icon GPRS
under tools->options ->icon it is possible to move the icon to the desired position.
Thought i mentioned this , because i think you didn't know.

Thanks
oh yes..i did not find it ....and it was so easy.....thansk for reply :? :?

overlapping on today screen
Hi Guys,
I downloaded the spb gprs monitor from O2 Connect yesterday, and as soon as I installed it the today screen went bonkers! All the programs work fine, but when I go back to the today screen, it seems to be overlapping. I'm not sure if I'm sending my message across right!
The letters seem to overlap different letters, such that I cant read it.
Can you guys help?
I am very new to the XDA2s, so pls explain in detail. I tried looking at the wiki pages, but there was nothing about this problem.

Try changing the theme of your today screen - should sort out the screen corruption.

Hi
I had sent my XDA2s to O2 before i got the reply here.
i have now got it back from them, installed O2 plus and GPRS monitor (downloaded by O2 connect), and evertyhting works just fine.
They had probably done a hard reset or something. They havent changed any ROM version as am still running the old ROM versions.
Thanks anyway.

o2 plus (beta 01140305) - today screen upgrade

I downloaded the o2 plus (today screen upgrade) from seeo2.com and noted some bugs on it. let me start first with the good things. it's good that they created a shortcut on the screen to change from portrait to landscape and vice versa on the today screen. they also created a profile menu for ringing tone settings but they just only included a call-ringer tone change and left out ability to change sms alert on profiles. Battery monitor was good but still is less detailed than "sprite" coz it does not have a detailed breakdown of the memory status for sd card and storage, for it only shows memory status of the main memory. One good thing though is that it has added a tabular setting for the programs you choose to be available readily.
I was really hoping they have also included the upgrade of it with the phone's ability to receive Vcard, unfortunately, this does not do it.
Am hoping that for any developer out there to try check this out and upgrade it better. Actually the program is already an upgrade from the original today screen but I think it still needs a lot of work.
cheers!
It's highly doubtfully that just anyone with experience can reverse engineer this applicaation without the red tape they have to go through with O2, since O2 does own the copyrights to any application they release.
Anyway, I avoid this application like the plague.
Btw... the latest O2Plus v1.6 which I downloaded through O2 Connect on my IIs caused me a major headache. It makes the Storage dissapear after the first or second soft reset. Once it dissapears, all your programs installed there will fail to work and therefore a hard reset is needed to solve it. I've confirmed this issue with my other forumer friends.
Yep, there's a problem with O2 Plus 1.6. Confirmed it DOES make the IIs storage disappeared. Not only mine, but my buddy's IIs as well. Just avoid this version and hope for a better updated version next time. :wink:
thank you guys for your inputs! and yep, hopefully they could get this upgrade fixed coz it's very ironic for such a software to be called an "upgrade" but it just messes things up! :shock:
cheers!
From what I understand, it's still in beta stage. I am after overall system stability. So no betas on my system, as well as minimal Today Plugins. This configuration seam to be the most stable on my 2s.
I have narrowed my installed stable application to about 67mb. I don't think I'll be installing anything anymore since I've just about capped my program storage space.

Wiki: WM5 Buggy Microsoft Software

I have opened this thread to try and documnet some of the buggy Microsoft applications on the WM5 Rom in the hope that we can check this against other Offical WM5 Version
have started this thread so that we can document some intresting behavior of Microsoft software under our WM5 Build. As well as WM5 Behavior.
We need to be fair as we all know that the WM5 version that we have has not been released and some software might work on WM5 but has not been built for it.
I have called it Buggy and maybe that is not a good choice of words, however maybe it is.
So if you at Microsoft wrote the software it was not my or any other person who posts here intention to clam that its is your software is buggy.
Fact is somehow something is wrong.
I hope that owners of Offical versions of WM5 Can verify if they have found the same issues.
WM5 Internet Explorer
It seems that the internet explore does not download all the things that it used too.
In the case of the XDA forum over wifi you are no longer able to see if a post has been added or go to the last post as the icons that you used to press under version 1.40 and before are gone.
You also can't reply to a PM as you have no button to do it.
Thus XDA over WM5 and wifi is useless.

Can A 1.40 rom user please upload the same type of pictures so that I can add them to wiki, thanks
i'm having a problem with the message notification..
I just made a hard reset and formatted the storage, installed basic apps..and now, when i receive an sms with the power off, i only hear the sound, ppc won't turn itself on..
i could swear this was working before..anyone have the same problem?
d3vil, that's my number one favourite feature of the WM5 version of BA you're talking about there! Please tell me if anybody has it turning on from SMS, because if they do I can't ever hard reset my PPC! I have always meant that this is the correct way a unit should work, since it's often in the pocket when I get SMS, and I used to have Nice Start to make sure that no buttons or stuff was accidentally pushed because of that.
Humm, maybe i could be mistaken, maybe i never noticed it before..i guess this behavior is ok too, but im used to it turning itself on, useful for driving and at night when the sounds are off..
I think this is the default behaviour. Anyway, I always keep it on a charger when I drive one of my cars or ride one of my motorbikes. And of course I have TomTom running to warrn me of speed cameras...

Lots of problems
I had lots of problems after upgrading, the main one being that I couldn't use ActiveSync any longer.
Aside from that, I reinstalled Rogers MyMail (thier version of Push email, which worked fine on WM2003). The app installed ok, but I could not view email messages. It showed messages coming in, but the screen wouldn't refresh to show the text.
After a soft reboot, the 'MyMail' section was gone from Messaging, only Outlook and Text messages remained. The app was still there as I could fire it from Programs, but I had to reinstall it to get visibility in the messaging folder tree. Same problem after several installs and re-flashes.
Has anyone got any third party mail apps working in WM2005?
Wiki says that word crashes, I tried to repreduce it and had no luck.
Can somebody confirm it and tell me how they got it to crash. thanks
-After I "installed" the german o2 wap flatrate, I couldn't connect to a WiFi and browse in the internet over Wifi. It only works with the WAP Flatrate.

Problem Since SnapVue to WM6

the large clock on the desktop only displays 1 or 2 numbers of the time. Is the new start button causing that problem. Also the was an icon I think for settings, I dont have that any more. Anyone ?
Hi,
try a soft reset from WM side or go to Vista and reset Snapvue from there using the control center.
S.
Soft Reset
I don't see any way to reset on either side. I can reset SnapVue by using file explorer. Will I lose WM6 .. Guess I will find out in a few minutes.
Display Problems
I learned the hard way, Clear Storage is NOT a soft reset. Back to square 1. Thing is .. when the start button is at the top of the screen, the isn't room at the bottom of the screen for Settings and SMS.
Everything Is Back To Normal
I think that the start button was not what was causing the display problems on my machine. Maybe adding and extra email address did it ...thanks for the help !!
I spoke too soon
Can't get the today reg to import. Tried it over and over. Do I need to start from scratch ?? Now I am afraid to start with the VGA because I am afraid I will get half way through that process and at some point it will not allow me to do something .. somewhere .. The only major change I made to the computer since the first time I modified winmo6 is adding the sidebar .. had to jump through some hoops to do that...
Hi, I get the impression,
that you do it the hard way. But for the first steps, before you start with RealVGA there is a very easy way to liberate the shift.
Look in the main Shift Thread. There you find from the top Sticky number four: Enabling the Shift the really easy way.
Or did you do that? It can be found on the modaco site.
And be very careful with RealVGA and read exactly the thing about the startup folder as you have an Italian Shift.
S.
VGA ...

I think that I have a USA model .. are you confusing me with someone else ? or do I have an Italian model and don't know that I do ??

Total newbie- problems downloading apps, customizing today screen

Hi everyone,
I could use some help from the experienced TYTN owners out there:
I just purchased a used HTC TYTN II (my first pocket PC). The person who owned it previously downloaded the Ulitmate X.V4 ROM and Manila 2d into the phone already (took me a while to figure out what the "xda-developers" screen was that popped up every time I turned on my phone!).
1st problem- tried to simply customize my today screen by selecting items to be displayed in the 'settings>personal>today' tab. I check off the items I want as per the operation manual (i.e. tasks, appointments) but after clicking 'ok' nothing has changed on the today screen. When I go back into the settings, what I checked is no longer checked. Frustrating!!
So then I thought maybe this problem would be solved by adding a customization program. Downloaded the Manila customizer and a theme off this site (as a newbie, learned to download cabs by trial and error- couldn't find any clear cut beginner instructions on the internet on how to do this- so who knows if I've done it right). Loaded the theme this didn't help me customize what's on the today screen nor did the background change (only the title bars and menus changed)- no idea why or how to fix this.
I also tried to download the HTC home plugin, HHC customizer and appearances files. Managed to successfully download the customizer and appearances but the app won't run because I don't have the HTC home plugin and this file won't download. Every time I try I get the message: "installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions." What does this mean??
Basically, all I want is a today screen that is customized to show my appointments, tasks along with the clock, calls, etc. And a nice theme would be great. Why can't I do this?! If anyone has suggestions or some links to beginner information that would be awesome.
I would also like to be able to download apps and run them... I have a TomTom GPS moblie disk but considering I can't even display my appointments on my phone, getting this to work will be mission impossible! Again, anything that will point me in the right direction would be much appreciated!
Jenn
u need to unload your manila in order for you to show all those today menu
OMG thank you so much- it's all good now. I sadly would not have figured out such a simple thing and unfortunately I could not find anything on the internet that would explain this. The guy who had the phone before me obviously knew what he was doing and downloaded all kinds of stuff, which is great... but then it made the official manual useless while learning the phone!!
I have my tasks/appts on the today screen like I wanted but I'm sad that I don't have the "actions" tab with touchflo anymore

Phone Dialler has gone all retro (and rubbish)

Very strange, I'm sure this problem must of been caused by yours truly, however I have now idea how???
My phone dialler has gone all retro'd (see screen dump) and loses some of it's funtionality.
I had installed a batch of 3 items, notification manager, NoniGPSPlotV2.80j.EN & metro, all of which I have since un-installed & performed a soft-reset, but still I have this horrible old-skool dialler, which I am aching to get rid of.
Any pointers on how to restore the default TF3D dialler would be great (is there a .cab?)
Thanks guys, you & this forum really do rock!
worst case senario would I be best to load a complete new rom? I take it it would erase all settings / added progs?
hard reset
hy there! I had a similar problem with the display. Installed a theme, without noticing that it was dor Diamond 1. So what happened is that it got "embedded" in the original theme of the phone. So I tried to uninstall it (unintalled, but being embedded, wome elements remained and the display was all crappy). Then searched for a cab, found it, but same problem . The display was also crappy. What I did in the end was a hard reset. And that solved all the problems ... if you search the forum, there was a post where you will find a link to original theme if you want to try. I'll search anyway and link you if I find it. Cheers!!!
Thanks George,
As I initially thought I thought the problem was caused by myself... & sure enough it was, I use pocket shield (which is great btw)& I was messing around with the config invoking the option slide to answer calls >>> use windows mobile dialler. I thought this would only occur during an incoming call, but no it took over the while dialler, anyway I've unchecked this option in pocket shield & given myself a damn good thrashing!
Thanks to you & all that took the time to read this....
Looking to do my 1st rom flash...god help me!!! ;-)
If you don't like the idea of flashing your rom, a hard reset would almost certainly do the trick as well
try to set "enable phone skin" in advanced config.
