i have a quick question:
i recently installed the htc home 6 button screen, and the htc home customizer
on the program launcher window there originally was an icon that takes me to the comm manager/wireless manager but i removed in an effort to re-arrange the buttons. but now i cant find it in the list of apps to add.
would it be possible for someone to direct me on how to get it back? thanks.

When you remove an icon from the launcher, there should be an empty space with a circle with a cross in it. Pressing that, should bring up thelist of apps you're talking about. On my device, it is just a few scrolling lines down.
Have you tried just typing "Comm Manager" in the top bar and press select?
unfortunately no luck on the typing in and hitting select. it just goes to the closest match in my case "contacts"
It was originally one of the first six or so items in the selection menu, if its not there i dont know where it would be.
I want the same thing, to add the Comm Manager to one of the launcher buttons, rather than trying to tap the connection icon at the top of the screen.
i use pocket toolman 2 which places a icon in the system tray with a host of other icons you can select. its quick, easy, and free... good app

I am not 100% sure which one but either Schaps advanced config or KaiserTweak one of those two things have option to enable wireless thingy on today screen. It shows your current wifi and bluetooth connections and clicking takes you to connection manager. I would first try KaiserTweak.

Worked out how to do it earlier.
Browse to the windows folder and make sure you've got all files visible.
Look for the executable CommManager.exe, right click on it, select copy.
Browse to windows\Start Menu\Programs\Tools right click, select paste shortcut.
Right click and rename the new short cut from, "Shortcut to CommManager.exe" to CommManager
Then it will be visible in the list of applications you can add to your shortcut buttons on the HTC homescreen. You can use the same method for any other applications you want on the launcher if they're not available automatically.
(I pasted the shortcut where I thought it most appropriate on the start menu).
thanks 6thElement. that shortcut worked.
thanks TimeSaver. i used KaiserTweak to enable wireless on the today screen initially.
This trick did not work for me. I have the Dutty WM6.1 Diamond ROM.
I need to put the Connection Manager on the Today screen, so that it can show me what am I connected to, but it does not show up in the Today item list.
I created a Registry key for iy in HKLM\Softwate\Microsoft\Today\Items and it showed up in the list, but still does not work, brobably because I am linking to the wrong DLL.
May someone, who has the CommManaget on their Today screen see what are the correct Registry entries in HKLM\Softwate\Microsoft\Today\Items for the Comm Manager and post here?
never mind my previous post - I found that what I was looking for was called "wireless" and can be added through the Kaiser tweak....
My quick menu has disappeared from the today screen and in its place is a battery percentage icon. Since I have a battery indicator next to this i would like to put the quick menu back. Please help.
have you tried going and excuting the quick menu program from your program list? Once there you should be able adjust the options to your liking.
its not into programs. trying a hard reset
you shouldnt need to hard reset just to get quick menu back...have you tried:
a) clicking on the start icon and not the word start
b) re-installing the quick menu cab?
did hard reset putting back phone with sprite backup now. quick menu icon was on when phone first powered up. If it's gone now it means some program is removing it. Right?
if you cant find the quickmenu in the start icon, then you can just try looking for the quickmenu executable. i think it would most likely be in the \windows directory
Is there a reg edit to move the battery icon?
I want to move the battery icon to the left because it currently covers up the icon that shows new notifications in the title bar, making them unusable. Is there a reg edit to do this? Thanks in advance!
Found quick menu on start icon. changed battery to none and added Q to taskbar. But the quick menu icon that was on there before is now gone but I can use this method

Well if you did a restore with sprite backup then most likely, you just undid everything that made it reappear in the first place.

By quickmenu do you mean the quickmenu itself taking the place of the old start menu? If thats what you want you have to tell it to do so, under options, the very first page, select replace systems start menu (and register win key of device if you want the hardware start key mapped too)

I have no idea what you are talking about on this, with my quickmenu, the battery is shown the furthest to the right as possible (where the ok and X are normally shown). Are you saying that this is not how yours appears?

No mine appears next to the 3G icon
uncheck "show on all titlebar" for the battery option and then the battery will move to the far right
quickmenu
I went to quickmenu/options and selrcted replace start menu--------nothing happened. sorry now when i click start it lists everything but won open ie settings so I'm turning off replace start menu
Leon, everything that you are asking really is availible as an option under quickmenu itself (even displaying settings) my best advice for you is just to look under the options...almost all of the options (again in quickmenu) are self explainatory, so you should be able to get all of your questions answered within
quick menu start
All of this started when I lost the quick menu start icon thats all the way up in the right corner next to battery icon. It is 3 lines with a triangle on its bottom right.Now the last icon I have is the battery with an empty space next to it.

The three lines thing can be turned off by going to the windows mobile settings, task manager, and deselecting all of the options under it, and obviously the reverse if you want that part on (this is not quickmenu, this is htc's task manager app). The battery is from quickmenu which you can turn on or off under the quickmenu settings.
Went to Task mgr and quick menu is checked but it isnt back on the top of today screen!!!!

Hi,
I was playing a little bit around with my new Diamond (installing apps, tweaks with advanced config, ...) and since the last soft-reset I only see a black panel, when I open the startmenu, but when I press somewhere inside this panel the items are shown, but the item under the position I've pressed is imediatly excecuted!
Is there a way to get the items back without formating the device?
regards
cfi
did you install SecondToday?
if so, a new version has been made, what might fix your problem
I've updated SecondToday but the Startmenu is still away...
I think I will do a comlete clean of the phone to remove all of my "tests" in the last days...
The same happened to me when I enabled the Startmenu animation.

The same to me - Just disable the Startmenu-animation in Advanced Config, Softreset and the Menu is back again...
I have that same issue with the black start menu. I solved it.. Just disable the ''Large Start menu'' in settings.
Just know which programs will conflict with the OS.
I have wisbar conflicting with Marschall Wait Cursor by showing no taskbar sometimes. So i dont use MWC
It was the "Animate Menu"-Setting at mine to...
some tweaks will mess up the phones functions, make sure its a supported cab
if not just hard reset and should be fine again
I've searched through the forum but can find nothing about this problem.
For some reason the quick menu no longer drops down.
When in a program or menu such as programs (WM) the icon top right has the X or ok on top of the quick menu icon, both showing as in screenshots.
I have triend enabling and disabling quick menu in Settings -> System -> Task Manager -> Button.
you need to pick one x button or the other
if your gonna use windows go into quickmenu options and disable the x button and all related options
if your gonna use quickmenu x than go and disable windows task manager via control panel
I want to use quick menu, so I have both Enable the "X" button end running programs and Enable Quick menu on today screen, which i'm sure was default (i have htc rom 1.37.405.1 wwe). then when pressing button, list would drop down with x, spanner, and mem icons and list of running programs. this no longer happens.
to disable win task manager in control panel do you mean in the registry. if so which key, i can only see default and group.
Installing some other applications can interfere with HTC task manager and give exactly the symptoms you describe. For me it was installing Spb Mobile Shell. Sometimes after a soft reset it would work for a while and then stop working. Sometimes it wouldn't work at all. Could this be your problem?
Could be I suppose although it was working fine for at least 3 days after installing and using spb. Could it be from using task manager through spb and if so is there a way of changing it?
anyway i might get rid of spb mobile shell as i don't think it's that good and see if that solves it.
SOLVED: or at least back to normal after removing spb mobile shell disable buttons in task manager disable touchflo soft reset and enable all again.
update: i've installed spb again to see what happens, so far quick menu is still working so I'm guessing problem occurs when task manager is used through spb.

The Original Task Manager can be deactivated from Settings/ System/Task Manager
all the best
I installed the CalliGrapher 7.0 in my Diamond. After a required soft reset... the phone just freezes in the PIN Check loader. If I press the Home tab it directs me there but nothing is accessible. It's just frozen and nothing works... just like a screenshot of your home tab. How do I uninstall this app without having to do a hard reset... can I somehow access the Add/Remove Panel from my computer?
Edit: I checked again and found out that the touch UI is no longer working. I played around with the buttons and it seems that I can somehow controll the phone via buttons but I can't get the Start Menu to open so that I can reach the Settings Pannel.
To make it short: How do I access the Add/Remove Pannel using buttons only? ( no touch )
Edit2: Eventually, I managed to uninstall the CalliGrapher app using Pocket Mechanic and using only buttons but it didn`t solve anything... I still have a non responding touch UI and I can't come up with anything that would fix it... other than a hard reset. Any suggestions for a non responsive Touch UI? It's kinda frustrating to work a "Touch" Diamond using buttons.

Maybe in safemode lots off phones are set so that if you reboot in a certain time 2 or 3 times it will automatic ask you or you want to boot in safemode.
Good luck
Willem
I had no luck with the safe mode... rebooted 5 times and nothing happened, no safe mode option. There has to be a way to get me into that Add/Remove Pannel using buttons only...

Did you try the safemode way for the second third and so on time before boot was complete, I mean you have to softreset before boot complete again.
Hope this helps

I tried and it didn`t work... I managed to get into the file explorer and I`m trying to find the "Settings" shortcut from the Start Menu... Do you know where it is located? I would use the search option but I can't type in letters and such... I started looking in the win files but it is kinda taking me too long. If it is a Start Menu shortcut then it must be somewhere within the Windows folder, right?
Edit: I found the "Settings" folder but when I open it, nothing... Tapped to "Show All Files" but no result. The Add/Remove Pannel is here but I just can't see it! How do I make it show?? Can I find it elsewhere?
The Icons in the "Programs" folder seem to appear. I pretty sure the "Settings" icons are system icons...
