AFAIK you can not.

hmm.. i am able to remove text close to the icon - like new sms, mms, ..., i can move each "new menu" on different position (there is x,y position in registry). then i am sure, there is some solution, how to eliminate some of items in "new menu"

Thanks guys all installed and mapped to messaging button

What do you mean mapped to messaging button?
Do you mean the letter icon on the keypad next to the windows key.
How did you do that if so?

Just select HTC Action Screen from the buttons app in settings....

1- its not assigned to right soft key. I have to start it from Programs menu.
2- When opened, if you dont do anything for 3 seconds it exits the application. Im not sure if this is an error or a cool feature.

It does nothing! you control the app. if you choose an action it will happen.
if not, the app exits...

Ok, thanks.

nevertheless you can easily localize it by going to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen
and modifying the "Name" value under each APP_x subkey.
soft-reset, then it's done.
the only non-working stuff is the message on top of the screen (see screenshot on page 1 of the thread) wich must be contained in the .mui file.

Before I install this tonight, can I have 1 quick confirmation please?
When this software assigns itself to the "right soft key", is this the ACTUAL Messaging Key? Or does it override the default Calendar Softkey?

It doesn't assign to either...

... but if you wanted to you can assign it. right?
It would be cool if we could assign it to the actual Messaging button on the d-pad as we already have a tab on the home screen to access our messages.

Great Software for your Kaiser

Guys I am sure some of you have come up with this program already but I thought posting a link to it since its free and works great with the Kaiser when you want to switch/open/close applications without pulling out the stylus.

I configured it to open with the PTT button and then use the wheel to move/select between the options (Active,close,close all)
Hope you find it usefull.

Thanks - I haven't seen this before.
Your link is dead - looks right but goes to the wrong place. I got it with a copy/paste though.
I installed it and it gave the "this program may not display properly because it was designed for an older version of windows" thing. I downloaded the WM6 version and am running it on WM6.
The program did not appear in my Applications. It was not available to be assigned to a button either.
It was sitting there in the Program Files directory though, and I could run it from there.
Looks pretty good. I like the controls and everything - but its a bit disappointing that it doesn't pull the correct icon for every program and you have to do it manually. I don't see myself doing that - so if I'm going to use it I would use it with the default icons.
I think I like it and would probably use it if I can get it to assign to a button.

To be honest its only when its assigned to a button that you will see the benefits specially if its the PTT which is next to the wheel.
Funny you say that. I tried checking my buttons settings and now it doesnt show up on the list of applications however its still assigned to the PTT button so I dont want to mess with it lol in case I screw it up..
Have you tried re-installing it?
I agree with the Icons being a pain although we tend to use the same applications very often so it might not be too much of a hassle.
UPDATE
Its back on the list of my applications available. I have assigned it to button 6 PTT

Why dont you try the Camera Button?

Long press wont shut down tilt *FIXED*

Sorry if I'm reposting, I found something similar but nothing really like my problem. I haven't installed any programs withing the last month but when I hold the long press and try to shut down the device, it asks me if i want to do that i press yes then screen goes black. But if i quickly press the power button the screen comes back and it didn't actually shut down just lost service. If you go to com manager and try to enable service again it will search for hours and only way to get it back is to soft reset. Anyone else had this happen? Thanks (I dont want to hard reset I have way too many programs that would take years to find again)

back up the programs using sprite backup and do a hard reset

intsall schaps advanced config, then menu>Key mapping and see what it says for "Long press Power key:"

i did that to mine by accident when i was remapping the buttons and i remapped the long power for something else and i couldnt shut down my device anymore. luckily i was going to update the rom anyways, but from what i remember there is no way to map it back originaly

The second pic that he has with the program linked to the longpress shutdown key, I don't have that file the only things I have close to it is powerexe.exe and poweroffwarning.exe. Do you have the same thing that he does? It would make sense of my phone shutting down if its missing tha program but who knows maybe its something custom it is schaps after all.

Can anyone post this LongPressPowerKey.exe program from their kaiser? Please

bump.......

poweroffwarning.exe

Thanks for the help arnoo I really appreciate it, but it doesn't work, program starts loader does the swirl and nothing.

unfortunately, it's normal...
Long Press Power Key is developed by Schap's and need to be integrate in the rom (i think in mscoree.dll). Even if you had LongPressPowerKey.resources.dll
And no cab for the moment...

Thanks lol, now that makes sense why it doesn't work. Do you know if there is anyway to find out what the the longpress shutdown is linked to so i can link it back, i really don't want to flash it.

Poweroff is managed by \windows\PowerOffWarning.exe
And you must have HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\ShowWarningMsg fix to 1
Finally, in schaps advanced config, then menu>Key mapping, "Long press Power key" => keep it blank
hope it will work...
if not, back up with Sprite back up, and try an hard reset

I have the exact same problem right now.

Did you by any chance install a proxified HTC Home?
if you did
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2313392 read my last post (no fix but at least you will know why.)

After you unistall the Proxified/custamizable HTC Home you have to clear the bind in advanced config mapper.
arnoo was right before but i did have it blank and didnt know it was htc home that caused this.

Ahh ok, what do I need to do in order to clear the bind? Thanks!

if you dont wanna lose your applications and programs just do a sprite backup and hard reset the device to get it back to original settings like somebody else said before..its prolly your best bet to get what you are looking for.

the screenshot isn't from my device (is linked to luigi.ing's thread), but
with HTC Home Customizer it's quiet easy to change the icons

In case anyone wondered, YES, it does work great on my Schaps 4.30-equipped Kaiser. Perfect for fat-fingering items in TaskMan!

it works great, but how can I keep he big botton setting? It just go back to normal size.

Thank you very much for sharing.

I had the same problem on first use.
Check this registry key and verify that the value is set to 1
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\TaskManager]
"EnableLargeIcon"=dword:00000001
After all is OK.
Moo

Awesome thank you!

it dosent help, after you press advanced tab inside the task manager, it goes back to the previes settings, small icons.

quite true, just went to visit.
Was 0, changed to 1, and buttons got all huge. Hooray!
However, visited the Advanced tab, OK-ed, and they got to 0 (and small) again.
Damn.
Now we have three options:
- avoid visiting the Advanced tab (after all, about the only thing one can change is order of appearance);
- bug the cook(s) so the TaskMan gets updated (and I'm sure they have better things to do);
- or use some MortScript or some other to poll the registry periodically and revert the DWORD value to 1 (n/c).
It's option 1 for me, then.
Or maybe even option 4 if ever I change my mind: fire up Resco Explorer, switch to My Registry, navigate to the path above, change, confirm. Time: maybe 6 seconds. Shorter if path is set as Favourite

I have HTC task manager 2.1 build 34837 on my omnia II I-8000 working but icons are too small. Large icons are enabled in the registry setting above. Anyone else with some assistance getting large icons showing? HTC TaskManager 2.1.33556_1 won't run, btw. Get busy thing then nothing...

Adding (Hold) to the OK button

I want to add a 'press and hold' function to the OK button. I dug around a little and didn't quite get the answer I wanted. Mostly using 3rd party apps to automate the configuration.
Couldn't I just make a copy of the registry entry in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\
of the 40C4. Add it back in and rename it to 40C8, and alter the string value "Name" to Button4(Hold)?

Never mind...
I am a retard...
I just noticed the button assignment utility had the ability to add a "Button 4(Hold)". No need for reg editing or a 3rd party app.

Well then, if you want one, all you got to do is click on <Add buttons...>. So simple a cave man can do it.

I use AE Button Plus and it's great but how do you stop the AEB splash screen from popping up every so often?

I used to use AE but it forever to boot up on a reset so i got rid of it.
