Hello everyone
Is there any way to scroll through the icons at the bottom of the home screen quickly, without having to flick through one at a time? It takes forever to get from Home to Weather or Settings because each time you scroll along one icon the main display changes.
I guesss basically I want scroll through the icons without each tab being displayed as you go.
Cheers for any help with this.
put your finger on the bottom menu and slide to the correct item.
look at a demo on coolsmartphone.com our youtube. it goes pretty fast
Aha, so I was missing something. Excellent, thanks very much!
Put your finger on the "Selector"/cube/active icon of the mode selector bar, then you'll notice that the screen will have an overlay of the currently selected mode, now you can slide your finger to the mode you want.

Can some one make the HTC home Pluggin real touch like.
I mean instead of pressing the House, little buddy, sun, etc etc icons, just use your finger to change the page on the pluggin?
It would really add that final touch to the HTC pluggin.
You can already. If you are having trouble adjust the touch screen sensitivity. Mine works using thumb or finger or stylus straight out of the box.
Cheers
Paul
you can?
Are you telling me you have the page flip effect when you move your finger to the side? ON the HTC Home Screen?

I see what you are saying
But, I wish I had the page flip option on the today screen, not after the cue is launched. Fliping on the weather pluggin
yo!
dunno what ive done but ive lost that little bar at the top of the start menu - you know, the one with just icons of recently opened programs anyone know how to get it back?
Maybe my eyes but I have never seen the old WM5 top bar on my WM6 TyTnII??
edit..
Actually its not only my eyes its my memory also. I think you have to go back to WinCE for them on a PPC. Unless you have a WM Smartphone then they are at the top!
the small horizontal row of icons right at the top of the start menu when you press the start button? im sure it was there earlier today!
They are the programs that have been set to always show in the start menu. They only appear as a horizontal list of icons when in landscape mode so that they all fit in. In landscape mode they appear in a vertical list with text labels like the rest of the items in the menu.
You can choose which icons appear by going to Start -> Settings -> Menus.
Those only show up in landscape mode. In portrait, the full list with titles is displayed.
ahaaaaa! loool me being an idiot then! lol cheers guys youre right!
Anybody know of an app for the kaiser that has touch screen functions. Like say you tap the today screen twice in a row it shuts the screen of, or something like that, would be pretty nice. ANy ideas?
wktask has that feature, but its in the upper corner. Preferences -> action -> tap in today -> suspend
i love wktask
Great, thanks i'll look into that. So it's not as easy as tapping directly on the screen? I have to go to specific place? Not just suspend, but can i also launch different programs with different pattern touches?
Well, wktask has many features built in. Its basically a task manager, displays running tasks on the top bar, kind of like a desktop(with icons that you can click on). Its great for switching programs/ closing them all. It also has a program launcher that you can map in the action tab, such as verticle scroll. So thus, most of the actions must be in the top bar.
I see. I like the htc task manager and since that app doesn't really do stuff my touch screen recognition, i'll just stay with the htc one. Thanks a lot though.
Hi there.
Is there a plugin which will delete scroll bars from today screen. I just wan't to scroll my today screen with the scroll wheel so that there are no scroll bars present.
This would a lot when using keyboard because scroll bar is so small when using phone with keyb. so it would be nice to be able to scroll the whole screen not only the bottom part of today screen.
You either need to remove some items from the today screen or make them smaller (if that's an option).

I would like to have more items on today screen but I'm annoyed by that horrible scroll bar.
My friend has a small hp ipaq smartphone and it has this kind of "no scrollbar" function.
I searched far and wide for this. The specs all seem to indicate that the ATT version of the S5, despite missing some features ( ::cough:: download booster ::cough:: ), DOES have Kids mode "enabled".....it's just you need to go through a variety of esoteric steps to activate it.
So, I apologize in advance if this is canonized somewhere else, but I couldn't find it on the web anywhere, so I'm happy to share it here:
One a clear place on your home screen, tap and hold on the wallpaper (not on an icon or existing widget)
This will load up the homescreen options, tap on the "widgets" box that will appear on the bottom of your screen
Side-scroll until you see the widget for "Kids mode" - it's a 1x1 icon of a cartoon gator on an yellow background
Tap and hold the icon and then place it anywhere on the homescreen, this will place the widget icon on your homescreen with a little arrow pointing downward (presumably indicating that this feature still has yet to be downloaded/installed/configured
Tap on the icon and this will open a new window asking you to install the Kids Mode. Tap on the install button. This will proceed to download the app (reported as being 61.3MB large), and install it (you will see a bunch of toast notifications indicating your internal storage is dropping).
The screen will then close and take you back to the homescreen where you left the widget - and the little downward pointing arrow should have disappeared.
Tap the widget icon, then follow the instructions for activating Kids mode! :victory:
It sucks that it is so hard to find and activate for those who want/need it, but I am relieved to see that for those of us who do not kids it is not needlessly taking up space on our phones.
Agreed. At least put the dang icon on one of the homescreens so that you can quickly see how to download and activate it. I too don't have kids, so I'm happy to just uninstall it now and get back 61MB+ of space on the "stingy" 16gb storage......
