Removing default apps - HTC Breeze

Hello!
I would like to know if it is possible to remove some of the default apps that come with my phone such as pocket msn, or streaming media wich i never use. If not is there at least a way to edit the visible icons in my start menu? For instance i use resco explorer, i'd like to remove the default file explorer.
Thanks!!
Mathieu

this programs (and shortcuts) in ROM
so you need to edit it. Read wiki's page for breeze and you'll know how can you do it
or you can try to remove shortcuts in \Windows\StartMenu folder

Uninstalling Opera 9.5 beta

How do you uninstall Opera 9.5? It doesn't appear on remove programs. Also it is now my default browser and there's no way to turn that off.
I'll see what I can find. In the meantime, should you ever want to install Opera 9.5 Beta in the future (after you flash a ROM for example), you should use Chanifire .cab here. As this allows you to uninstall it via "remove programs"
File Chanifire.cab not found, I have the same problem. There is someone that have unistall Opera Mobile 9.5 beta?
there was 2 versions
one where you cannot uninstall
one where you can
-both in the same opera 9.5 thread in develpment and hacking
but all u have to do is delete the opera files in windows folder(2) and go to appdata and delete that. There may be a few reg entries changed but nothing to worry about :]
I removed it by searching for opera after synchronization with the computer in the PDA windows - 4 files were found - these were deleted
How do you get into Setup on Opera9
Does anyone know how to get into the setup for Opera 9 - I somehow did it one time and now cannot figure out how.
I so far like this browser - way better than the mini! What is needed is for someone to tweak the chooser script and substitute mini for this one and that way we can choose between ie and O9 when a link is clicked.
There a a ton of files & registry entries you must delete manually.
I kinda like opera, (it's really 9.33 btw) but I hate how it hijacks html, htm, xml, etc...
What I did was use my latest sprite back up & did a partial restore. What you do is launch sprite, select restore, select the most recent backup file, uncheck everything *except the one check box for system settings located in the system data tab. Then restore only that infomation.
This will reset your recent registry & file association setting only. It will leave your programs & other data intact.
Then if you want to uninstall you only have to delete the 2 opera file in \Windows & the \Application Data\Opera9 files.
If you just delete these files you will have problems with file associations & that is a bit more difficult to fix unless you know the correct Executable & image files to point to.

This would only require a modification of the Mortscript file used for Opera mini.

Okay, & now go open an xml or html file
I know that the mortscript needs to be changed.
My main question is how do you get into the setup for Opera 9 - does anyone know the way?
What do you mean by "setup"???
Are you talking about the direction as to where files & registry changes are made? Then Try Below:
If you're talking about regular Settings then you touch the lower right part of the screen, Press the arrow that pops up then scroll to settings.
ALSO: you can open up any of the .ini files located in \Application Data\Opera9\xxxx (xxx= any of the folders beyond) using notepad or with Resco's internal viewer. They can also be modified using your desktop notepad.
I figured it out, thanks - the problem is that on my Tilt, in Portrait mode the icon for setup is missing due to the large size of the icons on the bottom.
I was in landscape mode when I got it to work .
For now, I am using netfront 3.5 - not as nice looking but works better overall.
I am on the waiting list to try skyfire.
I feel like I should just go on vacation for a couple months (or sleep) and when I wakeup all these problems (drivers etc, better iphone like interface) will be solved!!
Does anyone know where we can make a formal complaint to opera about its hijacking our file associations? I refuse to use this software anymore until I know this will not happen. It has made for a long night of reg edits that didn't really get me anywhere. After manually configuring pie to be my default browser I still couldn't open .htm files by clickin' on the in my file browser, had to backup to yesterdays settings and I change many things on a daily basis, Well restoring settings is finished I have allot of work to redo...

It's a leaked version. They even warned you.
This is not 9.5 beta please change the title.
Has anyone figured out how to restore file associations after installing this FUC... ****?
Thanks
How can be removed this version. I manage now to use version 8.65 but how can I regain those 8mb without hardreset?
BTW, I found that not too many people know or remember this, but you can type "Opera:Config" into the address bar to get into the advanced setup features for Opera.

Hi,
Where can I find uninstallable version?

So just deleting the files will do it? If I don't fix the registry will it ruin it? Which cabs are uninstallable?

Very Cool, how to determine the "CLASS NAME"?
I would like to force the scroll wheel in MobiPocket Reader.
I'm using Gsen for it, Gsen config shows you the class name of every running app...
edit:
Just found: this one
Maybe it works, I didn't try it.
regards
Perfect, thanks alot man. installed it with resco registery editor. works perfect. you rule!!!!
I am expierincing some problems when converting to a CAB file.
Everything goes fine, but if you soft reset the device(with the reset button or with a program) it just don't save the registry entries. BUT when i power off the device with the power button, than the registery changes are saved.
same story when uninstalling the CAB files...after uninstalling teh device must be restarted, but with the reset button it does not uninstall the reg settings, but if I'm power off the device it will be uninstalled.
So if anyone knows the solution for this, I will make the cabs, otherwise it seems for me to buggy to make cabs in this way
And the other hand: it will be more usefull if any developer could write an apllication to toggle the programs for scroll wheel use. But I simply can't.
BTW: nice find, in this way the scrollwheel is more usefull instead of never using it!

I have tried it and installing it is fine. the settings remains in the registry. But I can't uninstall it. It says that it could not be uninstalled complete. The settings remains after uninstalling...
very good work guys! congratulations!
wouldn't it be nice to do these changes selectable with a tweaker app? i think kaiser tweaks supports xml files. maybe schaps advanced configuration, too!

Yep, AdvancedCinfig supports a very simple xml format that will handle this perfectly. All explained here.

We can compile a HUGE database of apps in 1 XML! Anyone prepared to manage the master XML rather than have multiple ones? I think whoever moves fastest on a big one should become the de-facto master that we all support.

TouchFlo3D - Replace standard functions eg. Contacts, Alarm etc..

I would like to change some of TouchFlo3D's default programs.
Homepage:
-Clock & Alarms. I will like to replace this shortcut with Klaxon alarm program.
-Calendar: Replace with ThumbCal.
People:
-All People: This button originally opens Contacts. I would like it to open iContacts instead.
I already tried to change the registry for
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS to \Program Files\iContact\iConctact.exe.
I've tried to search around for information about this, but so far without luck. Can someone help with this?
Thanks!

I used ssmapa to remap the browser soft button. If i choose iexplore (from windows directory) it works but if i try to remap to another browser instaled by me (Netfront or Vodafone browsers) i always got error messages
I don't find any explanation to this
is there another way to do this? SSMaPa dosnt seem to work with the new juicy rom
i have replaced the calander and audiomanager to Thumbcal and S2P, this works when you press the calander button on home or slide to the music tab. did this by by changing the .exe name nding on what you want to replace and copying the folder to windowsusing total commander. just unpack the cab files or copy from program files

Disable manila pages

hi,
i'm using Energy Rom (6.5 cookie, 1jul). I use Manila for few pages (home, email, calendar, music, messages, settings, album), and because i like a lot Cookie Home.
I don't use a lot of manila pages (footprint, stock, meteo, facebook, reader, twitter, etc etc).
I disabled all pages i don't use, but memory usage does not change, because if i disable some manila pages, they are only "hidden", but are not really disabled (releasing memory).
(ex: i disabled meteo, but meteo is still updated in calendar page)
I ask: is possible, setting registry or files, disable REALLY some manila pages, in order to release memory?
Thanks
try this registry settings:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila
"Manila://weather.page.hidden"=dword:1
"Manila://facebook.page.hidden"=dword:1
"Manila://footprints.page.hidden"=dword:1
"Manila://docexplorer.page.hidden"=dword:1
etc...
if you just unchecked this TABs in settings, reg keys only change to dword:2 (= selectable)

thanks for your kind reply.
but problem is not fixed :-(
i change registry, as you suggest, but after soft reset, values change to "3" (i set to "1"): pages are hidden, not visible in configuration, but memory allocation is the same... so it seems that pages are hidden but not really disabled....
other ideas?
bye
this is a long shot and i dont know if it will work but you can try it
intal total commander on youre phone and search for the file 26948339_manila
copy the file 2 times(1 for backup of the file so you dont need to hard reset)
transfer one to youre computer and check if the read only is disabled
then open it with notepad and get the tabs you dont want out of the file
save the file and copy it back where you got it from
restart youre phone and the services shouldnt have to start as they aint part of sense anymore
as i said its a long shot and i dont know i it will work but you could try

just use Total Commander to handle it, you can download it at http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
cheers for the quick reply, have been using it but couldnt delete the file as in use, am a microsoft engineer and though in my mind i shouldnt have been able to do it, was able to rename the fonts folder to fontsbak, soft reset and as was diff name windows ignored it could then delete it!! 3 hours i been at this..... on a win 7 / xp etc system it would not have allowed you to rename the folder while inuse.... wierd lol!!
