Limiting the last used programs list - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Anyone know where in registry or options I can set the number of recently used programs to display in the start menu?
Thanks.

nope but there a app called startclean.exe that cleans lots of things including that each time you power down or reset its a great app.

Wisbar advance lets you change it to a PC style where you scroll across to open subitems, but other than that i havent found anything. Interested though!

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

how to limit recent program list?

is there a way of limiting the number of recent programs that show up?
thanks
I'm guessing you're looking for helpful registry locations to check out, and I can't help there. My only thought was changing the number of programs always displayed on the front page (Start,Settings,Menu, tick/untick the apps you always want displayed).
I realise this isn't an ideal solution, or possibly even useless, but it does sort of meet your requirements in that the more programs you have 'stuck' permanently to the start menu directly effects (affects?) how many 'recent' programs can be displayed...
Anyone else ever figure this out? I intentionally pair down my start menu, but now it is the entire vertical length of the screen because of the recent programs list. I've searched here and google.
You need to install this cab file. It will delete the recent programs entries when you soft reset.
Excellent, thanks for the help.

Hmmm, mine seems to do this anyway - which I don't always want. Wonder if there's a setting somewhere?
thanks, but i dont softreset my device so often. it would be nice if they were a reg hack or so to limit it...
thanks
cleartemp deletes them when every you want///

A completely new user and 2 questions...

Hi, I just got myself a Tilt/Kaiser and have been plowing through all that it can do for the past 2 says.
I have found these forums to be a wealth of information, hence I just wanted to introduce myself and say THANKS to all of you who contribute so much to it.
Moving on, I do have two quick questions...
I downloaded and installed the HTC-Home plugin which allows me to have the large digital clock and all the other cool looking buttons. However, I am unable to find a place to download the Wireless today plugin which would allow me to have an entry for my Wifi network under the today window. I have done several searches on these forums but the most I have found are either A) Mentions of the plugin or B) Other wifi plugins. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places? Can anyone just give me a link where I can download it?
Secondly, is there any way for me to remove tabs from the HT-Home-Today screen? Out of the 5 tabs there (Home, Fav people, Weather, Shortcuts, Music) I want to remove the Weather one.
Thanks again guys!

Try KaiserTweak, there is an option in there to enable Wireless Today.
The wireless plugin is built in to the OS anyway. If you dont want to use kaisertweak or advanced config tools to enable it, you need to find the reg tweak that enables it. I am sure it in the Hermes Wiki.
And htchome tabs are set in start, settings, personal tab, Today, HTCHOME tab.
Thank you guys! KaiserTweak worked

Uninstalled SPB, taks menu is now gone...

Hi everybody.
Hopefully you all can help me out. I recently installed SPB pocket plus thinking I needed that for their Insight, but I now understand I don't. I went ahead and un-installed the pocket plus before i installed insight, and now the task option in the top right corner is gone on my Today screen. So I can't close programs individually or see whats running. Any ideas? Really don't want to restore a backup as I haven't done one since January. Thanks for any help! -Jeff

May have a solution for you but it may not be what you are looking for.
Here is quickmenu. Quickmenu basically sets your device similar to a PC's start menu. Once you install this cab you will find it under start>programs. After you click on the application you will notice a new start menu.
Possible solution: Start>click on quickmenu>option>X-button of screen:Long-press to close, short to minimize.
After you have this set up correcting, simply click start to view your open programs. Fairly simple I have been using this application since I received my Tilt and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Hope you enjoy it.
I installed a barebones ROM and found I really liked that task manager in the top right corner....
Do a search on this site for Task_Manager_2_0_30487_2.CAB, it is exactly what you are looking for AND has a couple of other features too.
The difference between this and Quickmenu is that this one doesn't have all the other stuff (although I use quickmenu)....
Hope this helps,
MBN
yea, I'm sort of looking just to get the original one back, I'm not sure what I should do. I guess if I don't have a solution I'll be forced to run a backup I did on sprite. Was hoping this was a common problem but i guess not
I had the same problem when I tried the demo out. After a little research on SPB's forums, it turns out that it is a known problem during uninstallation.
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you on how to fix it. I was so PO'd that I went and hard reset the phone. I hope that SPB fixes the issue and I'd like to see how support is for WM6.1

I'm tellin' ya, try the one I referenced above, it has just the corner app but where the original has a couple of options above the list of open apps, this offers three little buttons: Close All Open Apps|Settings|Memory %.
This takes up the same real estate the other one uses... give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

I actually tried it, and I love. The only thing I don't understand is the functionally, all I can figure out as of right now that it shows memory usage,thats it. Anyway, thanks for the heads up! -Jeff
On Kaiser You can restore the today quick menu (in the upper corner): in the system settings find "X Button" icon - tap on it and there will be an option to turn it on/off. If its suddenly disappeared that can be becouse of something (e.g. 3rd application) turned it off. Thats happend in my case with SPB Pocket Plus on wm6.

Diamond..does it have profiles??

Hi all,
Hopefully i should be getting my new UK spec Diamond in a week or so fingers crossed. Now coming from Nokia, have been using a nokia n95 8gb phone..which has served me pretty damn well. On the Nokia it has profiles ie silent, meeting, offline and general etc etc.
Now can anyone tell me if the Diamond has such a thing built in??. I know there are apps that put status profiles but was just wondering if the Diamond has such a feature...if not thats ok, not like its the end of the world. But using the nokia it did make life easier ie press the power button once and you would get a menu listing all the available profiles.
it has profiles.
go to settings>sounds and you can choose profiles.
or you can assign the call gang up button to give you a silent mode
There are also some applications that manage device profiles with a huge amount of options e.g. http://www.sbsh.net/product.php?id=28#
Although I have no idea how well this integrates in the OS when running touchflo. As far as I can see this software can run as a todayplugin and/or a tray bar icon. Either of them is available while running touchflo. So I would get in touch (LOL) with the developer if there is a way to let it run from the header...

Here you go. Free, fast, small footprint and very powerful. Once you setup the profiles, then save the registry key for future hard reset. If you ever hard reset, after installing the software, import the saved registry entry and all your saved profiles are there!
KOR!

Profiles Manager for Diamond

Hi all,
Just bought a Diamond in replacement of my Cruise.
This Diamond is beautiful and easy to use but I have not fount a profile application to use with.
I need a profile application that can control Bluetooth, rings and notification volume in profiles like cars, home, work .....
I usually used PhoneAlarm but with the Diamond and the touchflo screen, it is not possible to add the today plugin ...
So I have tried an application called PZP and the PZP Menu software that I launch using a long press on button. this application is great but eavy and slow to load...
So I am now searching an application to manage my profiles through the TF3D (why not ..) or with a button on the task bar for example.
someone has an idea ?
regards
i have this same question and couldnt find the answer. has anyone solved this yet?

...sure: Disable the manila plugin ;-)
You could always remap a TF3D soft key to whichever profile switcher application you decide on?
I've tried PhoneAlarm in the past (http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html) but now use Wireless Time (http://freewareppc.com/communication/wirelesstime.shtml) which alters my profiles based on the time of day.
Don't think there is anything integrating tightly within TF3D just yet
I'm the developer of PhoneWeaver (I'll don't put the link to avoid it to be considered SPAM, but it is public that beemer=miguel). I think it is the best profiler program in the market and I can tell you as a secret that as long as I have a Diamond as my personal phone, current version works well on it and next version will be fully optimized

I haven't yet managed to find working documentation for WirelessTime. Presumably you need to keep it running and there's no minimise option. I can't work out the configurable time option under the settings that seem to defaulted to 00:10, but it looks like hourly configurable slots on the main screen. I have searched, but can't find a manual, either on PDAInfo, Google, or here. Any pointers in the right direction?
If you are still looking for a tool to manage profiles, here you have
- Profiles for Windows Mobile
I bought it a year before, and they told me I could get 2 more licenses. I have been trying to contact with them this month (in order to get my second license for the diamond), and no way.
So, in the trial version you would be able to configure and programme 2 profiles. Anyway, if you look around the web...

I have created a link to it that I put in the startup folder so it runs on every soft reset. I never have to open the program and it doesn't appear as a running program.
I've not found any docs either, but I've left the time option set at 00:10 because I wasn't sure what it did! On the main screen I've just highlighted what I want to be 'on' each hour, and repeated that for all the days in the week. Been working fine for me on this basis

Hi
At the Diamond, how you change profiles? where you connect it to?
I am using Phoneweaver I have added a button to the Phoneweaver Menu on my Programs tab and when i press that i get my profile list ... works a treat
SPB Phone Suite is nice - and if you couple it with Second Today then you can access all of the home screen plugin options for switching profiles.
