SMS problems - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Everytime I open up the thread, I have to scroll up to see the screen as per attached. Please advice how I can tweak.

Can just..(squint) make it out from your picture...
This only happens on mine in landscape when I open an SMS (1 liner) on my TyTnII. The screen is offset and I have to scroll to the top.
I think its a MS Windows Mobile (feature!!) bug when you have a contact image saved and when it is displayed in the header, screws up the display. It is very annoying.
Any answers out there?

i had the same problem!!
and the solution for me was to hard reset

Go to the REgistry and do the following change:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/Navigation/4-Way Nav and change the "0" to "1".
That will fix it.Mine did...

removing icons at the bottom

how do you remove the icons at the bottom of the today screen in WM6?
i have already disabled Tray launch, but those icons still exist...see picture.
Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000
Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000
remove TrayAp.exe if exist
[HKLM\init]
Launch92=
look in
[HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet]
search registry for tray and see what it comes up with, be careful, backup reg keys before editing
Delete - init_tray.lnk if exist from windows\startup folder.
Look for other links in this folder that might create a tray icon
When you start DFregedit or DFrunningApps, it always installs a tray icon. I believe there is no option to disable this, all you can do is not to close it with close button but with menu>exit. Or be real nice to DotFred and ask him for an option to disable the feature.
There's a blue icon in the corner that I do not know, is it Bluetooth related or a suspend or reset button? Possibly placed their by software you installed or it came with your ROM.
The buttons there are: DFRegedit, Battery, Comm Manager, Rotate Screen, Pshutoff, Bluetooth.
ok will try the removal from the registry, i guess most people love this type of setup - with tray at bottom, i find it not nice to look at, since my icons on top are large and the ones on tray are tiny, no balance...hehehe.
@Paulpax did you use rltoday for your hima ? because I try to use it, but doesn't work properly

yup i use RLTODAY and i edited the skin file to suit me. although the original skin.xml is already OK.
Hi
I am trying to do the same, found the values in the registry, edited them properly with a regeditor, but no changes. After a soft reset, the values are back as before, unchanged...
Any idea, what is happening? PHM registry editor has no "save" option, so I don't know other than to exit the application via "Tools - Exit"

Yes, this can be frustrating. On your desktop PC every change to the registry is immediately permanent, on your Hima it's not always so.
Count to 20, exit reg editor, count to 20, switch off, count to 20, switch on, count to 20, soft reset USING software!, not the hole/stylus method!, check result. Most of the time just using software soft reset also works but not always.
y dnt u guyz use CEregedit..it connects ur ppc to ur pc via USB and copy's all reg entries
please give a download link
ok here u go Maggy
wince regedit : http://rapidshare.com/files/72691245/ceregedit_setup.rar
Thanks a lot, this looks not only better than any xda regeditor, it even looks better than XP regedit! Any idea if a version for editing the XP registry exists?
yeah i have one called Registery Workshop..i will post its link A.S.A.P
im just even using the DFRegEdit that come with the Shekhar ROM, by the way, when u edit the SKIN.XML, u just open it with NOTEPAD, do editing, save, then to APPLY changes, open Settings - Today - Items - RLtoday - Options, the press OK for the SKIN to make the changes....then your TODAY screen changes.
When using the rlToday how did you make the scroll bar on the side go away?

Remove or hide scroll bar?

Is there a way to hide the scroll bar? I think with touchflo working better now their is no need for it. Plus it will make pie and other apps look better!
Any help or suggestions???
This might help

1. Backup Registry, then using a good registry editor go to
HKLM > Software > Microsoft > Today > Items
2. Find the Plugin you want to be scrollbar-less, in my case UltimateLaunch.
3. Glance through the entries and find the one that says "Type". Double click type and change the value to 5
4. Go into Settings > Today and make some minor change to your today screen to force it to refresh (or just soft reset). Hopefully the changes will now be reflected.
Worked magic on my Kaiser, hope it would for you, too.
Cheers.
I think you were referring to the scroll bar in general, not just on the today screen. If so, I don't know about completely getting rid of it but you can adjust the size of it. Maybe make it reeeeaaallly small?
Here's a quote from http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-323389.html
To change the thickness of the scrollbars at the right/bottom of documents larger than the screen, adjust...
For the horizontal (bottom) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cyHScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)
For the vertical (right) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)
The default thickness is 13. You can set the value to pretty much anything you like

Schaps Advanced Config.
Use Schaps Advanced config, to change the size of the scroll bar. I don't think you can make it disapper but, i you can make it extreeeeemly thin.
here's the link to the software.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070
I have made mine 1px wide using KaiserTweak, seeems no ill effects in the last week or so.
My main issue was for Ultimate Launch so may give the other method a try.

Thx man! You solved my problem with this information. Thx for sharing it.
I changed all my taskbar sizes to 0 and installed FTouchFlo. Now I have no scrollbars anywhere, but I still have TouchFlo
You can do it with Wisbar advanced, too.

Many, many thanks for this info kappa001.
Just what I need!
in wm 6.5.x, you can simply use livven's simple gloss themes (search for it!). the themes look great and use very snazzy looking "thin" scroll bars with no up/down or left/right arrow buttons. needless to say, the themes have a system-wide effect.

I wanted to get rid of the scrollbar on the calendar on the today page but when I changed Type for the calendar plugin to 5 the calendar disappeared completely. This is in 6.5.1 on my TP2.
What is Type "5" anyway and is there a 2, 3 or 4 also?
I tried 2, 3 and 4 just for fun and they don't help the scrollbar.

TIA
Unfortunatly keyswop deosn't work on Diamond.....
Do you know which app. does
Edit Registry below, you can modify first page of TF3D Soft Key. I don't know about other page yet.
\HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila change value of each key (LSK for Left Soft Key, RSK for Right Soft Key)
HomeLSKArguments - Argugement of application you'll be calling
HomeLSKPath - Path to program with in "" i.e. "\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe"
HomeLSKText - text of the button.
HomeRSKArguments

Works fine.
does anyone have the path for contacts ? i dont find it, and the poutlook.exe does not work.
thanks
...and I need the path for "Phone"... for back to original state...
For contacts, you have to edit the 3 keys describes by sudboy :
HomeLSKArguments (or HomeRSKArguments) : modify value to "Contacts"
HomeLSKPath (or HomeLSKPath ) : modify value to "\windows\poutlook.exe"
HomeLSKText (or HomeLSKText) : modify value to "Contacts" (for exemple)
It works fine for me (Previously I always got an error message about trusted certificate ....)
For "Phone" the file is "PhoneAgent" (\Windows\PhoneAgent.exe) but I didn't test this one

For some reason this does not work for me. I've replaced path and text with my desired choice, and it does not load my desired program although the text shows what I want. I have the paths correct, tried other programs, still nothing. I've left arguments blank each time (maybe that's the fault?) but I don't know exactly what goes here.
I did a test, and changed everything BUT text. it still loaded camera, even though the path was pointing to another program.
any help appreciated. thanks!

You have to restart. If the path is correct it will work.
yes I've restarted. anyways, I created a thread, it seems sprint users are affected by this issue of it not working.

[SOLVED] PocketCM

In Touchflo3D, I'd like to replace the contact manager by pocketCM (replacement for the left quick launch button).
Does anyone knows how to do this ?

Here is the way to change the homekeys IN TFLO 3D.
In a registry editor, go to:
HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/
Here is:
HomeLSKPath, which is the left softkey (Standard = Phonepad)
And
HomeRSKPath, which is the right softkey.
If you change these with the location of the programs you want to link to, and simultaneous change the names:
HomeLSKText = Left softkey text
And
HomeRSKText = Right softkey text.
hope it help
I try this, thanks
I had a look at these keys. But what i don't understand is that there's different tabs, and so different softkeys for each one, and only one value in the registry. So if I manually enter the adress and the name, not sure it will work, or if it does, i'll certainly have the same hotkey everywhere... but i only want to replace the left softkey in the contact tab...
Hi do you have a black skin for the diamond, I just found a white one (with the correct resoluton).

The PocketCM FAQ...
How to add this application as the default contact manager?
Easiest way: download and install the CAB version of PocketCM.
You can also do it by hand:
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
Change "String 1" value from :MSPOUTLOOK contacts to "\Program Files\PocketCM\PocketCM.exe".
Make sure that you add the "" on the new entry.
Also...
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSPOUTLOOK
Change "String 1" value from "poutlook.exe" to "\Program Files\PocketCM\PocketCM.exe".
without the "" on the entry.
then reset or re-start your Diamond

Problem selecting text

I noticed a strange problem.
Inside text editing application that do not warp lines (Orneta Notepad Mobile and any other notepad style application I tried) text selection (with stylus tap and drag) only works when lines a short and orizontal scroll bar is missing or disabled. When lines are longer and orizontal scroll bar appears text selection is no more possible.
Does anyother noticed this problem?
Any solution?
Selecting text works not so fine anymore.
When I hold the syles on the screen sometimes it works, but not oke.
Or when I hit with the styles on a word he selected that word.
With me other WM phones (HTC to) it was possible selecting, copy, paste in most places. It was very simple te select a pease of tekst.
Does HTC running a app that has a conflict with the WM selecting option?
I have searching registry if there is maybe a key to change.
I don't like the slecting way on the Diamond2.
I hope someone find out what the problem can be.

True.
KraFT
I found a partial solution: there is a way to make a list of applications that should be ignored by TouchFlo. Inside these applications scroll by tap and drag stop working but text selection does work.
Find the registry key HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings\TFLOIgnoreAPPs
For any application that you want TouchFlo ignore create a string value and assign to it the name of the application .exe file (important: the value seems to be case sensitive)
For example in my case for Orneta Notepad Mobile
HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings\TFLOIgnoreAPPs\IgnoreAppNP = "NOTEPAD.exe"
Thanks, it works.
I have now add strings with poutlook.exe, PIMConnectivity.exe, Notepad.exe and Explorer.exe (resco) .
In those apps it works now fine.
