How can I change the "start" to a different name - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Im wondering how to change the name of the "start" to something else. Im sure there is a way using a registry but I dont know where to go. I looked on google and it shows how to do it for windows XP but not windows mobile. Does anyone know? I really want to make my phone custom and not just the att name I want to change other names.

That would be pretty sweet. Ill be keepin my eye on this thread.

Come on. Some one knows how to do this or at least has an idea of how to do it.

On XP to rename the start button you have to actually edit your explorer.exe. This might not be something that you can do on Windows Mobile without modifying core files. I am pretty curious myself now, so I will look around, but I would guess that it would have to be hacked into the files when creating a new ROM.

I read more up on it. the screen shot that u see were running a ppc in software acceleration instead of the hardware...so it will be slow.
Would it be possible to add something like this to the homescreen built using flash? I can make the gui super sweet but to add native flash to the homescreen is beyond me.
Right.. so i saw this and im in love with visual effects on my device..
So you guys can guess it.. yes.. i've downloaded this right away and im trying to install this on my Herald.
I'll add the Manila CAB file right away for any other guys here..
Please have a moment to figure this out! I'll be right back..
And here's a little present.. if it works, i'll post an Video on Youtube!
EDIT: Upload failed for some unusual reason.. sry about this. Here's the download link: http://htcinsider.blogspot.com/2008/01/manila-arrives.html
1 FPS = slideshow http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
Some its features may be useful, I would try it if i knew it works.
Just installed it on my device.. it's not working ATM but i found something in the Settings file.. it sais. ONLY RUNS ON TouchFLO interface..
wich i dont have because i hard resetted my device
Sry guys.. hard working to make it work on a Herald! !
You'll here more from me if i found out more!

Best TouchFLO Cube?

Hi guys, I've been searching all over the forum looking for the best TouchFLO cube freeware for my AT&T Tilt, but I want one that works exactly the way the original cube worked (slide from bottom to top to activate, etc.). Does anyone know the best program that will do this?
Thanks
May need a few Reg edits, but should work!

Laughin my ass off. Seriously dude there are cubes all over this forum that will do anything you want short of .......... well can't use that language in this forum. Read them all ( hundreds of posts ) try them all ( a sunday afternoon ) and pick the one you like. it is like saying " I need a car? Which one should I buy? " Half the fun is kicking the tires/
any and every cube works the way that you want. it all depends on what kind of features that you want in it.
I just want a cube that looks and acts like the cube introduced on the HTC Touch. Are there any ones here that do that?

Since you were gently reminded to obey the rules and search for your self before starting a new thread and apparently are unwilling to do so. I searched " for " you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354715
Pick "any " cube you want, make it open " any " way you want and make it do " anything " you want. All cubes have config settings and you can configure the " gestures to open them anyway you want. Hopefully this leads you in the right direction
thanks, didn't know i could config that one

Well there have been hacks to get rid of the bottom softkey row but it gets rid of it in all apps which starts a no-no.
Another method would be to use homescreens that are full screen... kinda like the ones you have to launch (basically an app). You don't really get rid of the bars, just have a program covering them up.
Another method, which I used to use, is to skin the bars with the same image so it appears they're gone, with just the background and icons and softkey text. It actually works well. Of course you need WM6.5 that allows skinning.
Other methods include "desktop" replacements like WAD and such. They basically skin the bars to your liking and works with older windows mobile OS's

Thanks Player911 for the advice. BTW, i am using WM6.5, so what would you suggest as best.
Please keep in mind i am running the Gen.Y Manila "Revolution" R1.5 VGA Port CFC with the Panaramic background.
I'd like to know this also...
And it'd be amazing if anyone ported this to vga...

Change Carrier Name?

I recently switched carriers from MetroPCS and I'm now currently on AT&T through Straight Talk. The first thing I noticed after I switched sim cards and my service was finally activated, was that the carrier name shows "Home" instead of "AT&T" of "Straight Talk".
Is it possible for us to change the carrier name?
I'll attach a picture to show what I'm talking about

Given that I only see the carrier name on my lockscreen for a few seconds until I've unlocked the phone, I see little point in changing it. Now, it can be done, but I believe you need Xposed and GravityBox to do it.
It's one of those things that just kind of nag me when I pull down the status bar
I would use xposed, but I'm pretty sure that it's still not compatible with Android N yet. I was looking for alternative ways of doing it.

I don't believe there is an "easy" way to do it. You're probably going to have to decompile framework-res.apk and edit the carrier name in strings.xml, then recompile the framework. That is probably as simple as it gets, as I don't think there is an app that will do it for you. But search the site. You may find something that works that I haven't found.

You can use a custom rom to hide it. To be able to change it takes a bit more.
I find it annoying as well that is why I only run roms that allow me to get rid of it. I know what carrier I use. I dont need to be reminded.

S pen smart select

Hi guys
If I'm not wrong on early version of note series the s pen was able to select multiple crop. I mean one crop and store it on floating icon the another crop ... finally you was able to see what you selected and use that. On note 9 is that possible?

Yeah I was taking about that... scrapbook it I'd not necessary for that.... btw we have to wait to just like you said.. thanks so much
Can't you just install scrapbook?
You can do screen write. Then, when N9 takes first screen shot, it gives you option to crop or scroll down for another page to capture,and so on... But you don't have smart select multiple pages unfortunately...
